to ethereal regions of eloquence by his to

ropped on the "wood pile of humor." co

nount of material we had in the South

ie negro afforded; the keen witticism of ^
ouutaineers, especially those of Tenues- re
e, whose brogue and peculiarities of m

i Memoriani of Miss Daisy Carter.
Little over two weeks ago this most ff
ghly esteemed and dearly beloved ft
>ung lady passed away from the midst |
kindred and friends to that brighter
aim reserved for the spirit of those
ade perfect by the cleansing blood of an ~
er loving Christ. In the bloom of youth, A
st verging iuto womanhood, when 1
liles seemed sweetest and voice musical,
iien looks become magnetically engagg,
and when the heart pulsates responrely
and mutually to those higher and
>bler virtues environed by affection's
irest emotions, 'tis then we miss them
ost as death's cold hand snatches them
am endeared and devoted loved ones. ||
ich to us is the image now that sleeps
tranquilly in the memory of those that
ved her best. But she has done the
ark of life, aud like a full blown flower
ucked by the hand of death, she has
.ssed away. If there were any failures
raiting her in this transient life she has *
capedthem; if there were any successes *
raiting her she has already grasped the
andest. Amid all the "ups and downs ?
life, its dark vicissitudes,its sorrows and A
ins, its afflictions and troubles, all have 9
ased, as her mortal life ebbed away. B
er pleasures and joys that might have
en anticipated here, as youth looks forird
to them, have all too passed away
the sphere of oblivion, and to-day in
at brighter beyond she is realiziug the
reet prospects ahead and enjoying tbat
eavenly society "where congregations
'er break up, and Sabbaths never end."
society where sin never enters and
ath never visits.
God sustained her from girlhood to
Dmanhood, and though an orphan she
is blessed in having a good home, and
lid all the years of her life God was her
ather." To day she is with those who
ved her best and in "a mansion not
ide with hands." My dear readers, I
it here to-day in this solemn memoriam
is question: Have any of you ever
idied carefully this visitor to us ? Why
11 it an enemy ? Why do we speak of
as being unwelcomed ? Is it because it
often stalks into our homes unbidden
d carries off those whom God has given
to love? Oh, what a leap from the ?
>usehold to the grave, but he w much f
eater is the leap from time to eternity, I1
3m mortal to immortality, from earth
Heaven! Gone! No, no! Not gone;
ily asleep, "A blessed sleep, from which
>ne ever wake to weep." In this world
e leave friends and relatives alike, but <
e only leave them for a short while. ?
e travel ahead faster sometimes to
eet-those gone on, and by and by we
e them weary and worn at Heaven's t
ites ready to* be ushered in by those
igels who always keep those gates ajar,
this death? Watch the loved one as
! or she with grieving eyes is bidding r
a "(foivl.hrpi" Wateh those
t ~J ~
inds as loved ones cross them for the
st time. Give one more earnest, pass ive
ok at that sweet, calm face. Remember,
is the last look on earth. You turn away a
sart-broken. On earth 'tis sorrow, 'tis

He Was Absent-Minded.
Espjorn, a Swedish gentleman, fond ol
telling anecdotes and incidents gathered
.luringa recent visit to his native country
is responsible for this addition to the
'absent-minded man" series:
A professor in one of the Swedish universities,
having finished his labors for the
lay, was about to start home when a fellow
professor called his attention to the
violent storm raging outside and said:
'Why go home? Better remain at the
Jollege to-night."
He walked over to the window and surveyed
the situation. "Yes, I think I will,"
le replied, nonchalantly, an all-absorbing
opic of the class room yet in mind.
Soon afterwards he was missing, says
he New York Times, and it was supposed
hat he had changed his mind and gone
