Tho Last SSpjko. Messrs 'J?Ni'P'rnk?i ?nd JYF. Everett were accorded the honor pt drlyirig the lao fc spike on the new railroad on Thursday last.

She had filled her mission on earth, her spirit lins gono to its homo in heaven, "And all her afTcctiona aro oo'r." Fond parents, weep not for your purr, innocent child. while she can not come back lo you, you may some day go to her, and he with ber forever in tim pu rad ino above.

A, p'op'er'road by Mra Auoio Everett'bef oro ?..;,the" Juvontlo Missionary Society of Ho bron Church iu memory of Mre MAH Y FLETCHER OOVINOTON. In memory there etandB before rae. a bright Sunday morning- it is tho second Sunday of the mouth. A love ly woman is seated in' tho roar of Hebron Church, and a band of little children cluster about her; it is the meeting of their missionary Society. She is to ling them eomo deeply in? teresting story, and earnest faces are turned towards her, and- eyes nro shining in sympathy. Aa we draw a little nearer to liston we bear the piti ful taleB of childhood in other lands, where there are no fathers and moth ers wbo know about Jesus, and there aro no churches, nor Sunday Schools, but whose Gods are grim idols, hor rible monsters of cruel -suspections How the tiny babioa are thrown -into the Gauges and eagerly seized by the reptile waiting for its prey. How the women are re arded as-the slaves and burden-bearers, degraded below the beasts of the field. A little girl born in the home meets no loving welcome, and ia oftimes cast out to dio from neglect, aod though she bo allowed to live, the years of womanhood are only those of pain and misery, of weary and hopeless toil, and in an guish of spirit she beats ber bauds upon her breast, crying out from her depths of miHery to her God for help. But there comes no answer from the black, black darkness. As the story goes on tho little faces grow sad. earnest and thoughtful, and tho deep desire grows in their hearts to give them the good news of Jesus and how He came to save, and how proudly they } ield up their pennies to bo used for this work, and how their hearts swell to know that eomo have gone, and others aro.ready to go, to tell these poor creatures about a Sav iour who can help them with a Sal vation that reaches beyond the gravo. As Ibis loader meets her band from month lo month, tho love and inter est for this great work grow in their hearts, and the little offerings "In His Name" .increase until many dol lars are going lut from their treasury; each little child gladly giving some thing. "For many years the Society was blessed with the wiso and lovinpr leadership of our noble "Mrs. Mary" HS she was lovingly called. About three years ago and more, work iu another part of tho Master's Vine yard called her, and she left tho children who were so dear to her, to be cared for by another, b..t never did her interest grow less, and in many ways did she coutinuo her min istries to thom. Her work and iu fiuence live in these boys and girls to da)', they are older grown now, life's cares and duties are falling upon their shoulders, but we lead this message upon many of their facos : "I jove God and trust Him, and will never let go my end of the line. Yes, dear Lord, we obey thy message. Go, carry my Gospel, and it shall be for good tidings unto all people."'

The home circle was broken and she was needed so, her husband's pride and joy, ami the com panion and guide of her boys, how can they give her up? By f lilli in God, by hope that r?aches beyond tho graye, "The Sun of .Righteousness ahull rino, with healing in his wiugs." She knew in whom she had be lieved, and with unfaltciiug trust closed her eyes on pain, wenrinncss, sickness and sorrowing and found thc rest and joys of oternal happiness.
