Mrs. II. L. Ruck, Jr., whose beautiful young life has ever been the charm of a happy home died Tuesday morning about b o'clock and she has passed into the blissful beyond, where no pain will ever more be known.

Hut Ini inan agency and unremitting tenderness and eare could avail nothing, and t.lie erushintr^nnouiieenient that "she must, die,' bowed down many hearts. Possibly, to none is the blow so severe us to her young husband, to whom she linked her young life but a few mouths ago. both starting out upon a path all radiant with happiness, but a shadow has fallen across his young life, which the tender sympathy of his friends would lift, and whose pain t hey would mitigate were they able to do so.
