IN MEMO ill AML When sorrow’s dark pinions shadow' ov Ives our poor burdened hearts fly for solace to God’s blessed promises. He took a lit tle child and sat it in the midst of hfs disciples as a model, saying: “Ofsuch is the kingdom of Heaven.” His word is indeed “a lamp to our feet and a light to our path.” On the 2tth of June, 1888, God took to Himself Fannie Lau a, the infant of Mr. and Mrs. R. W. Smith. When a Utcle child is taken Rom the em brace of fond parents and loving fiends, power less, alas! to hush its sobs or relieve its pain, God takes it home. In exchange for a life of sor row and suffering, inte. spersed here and theie with fleeting pleasures, He dees it fiom the ills o f the flesh, and it becomes immortal and is forever “safe in tae &: ms of Jesus.” “Their angels do always behold the face of inv Father which is iu Heaven.” “A few moie years, a few more tears,” and will come the meetiDg with our loved ones for which we so often sigh. Alas! “How soon thy brightness had been stained By passion or by grief, Now not a sullying breath can rise To dim thy glory iu the skies.” A Friend. LINES On the death of Fannie Laura, infant daughter of Mr. and Mrs. R. W. Smith—by Odessa MeEl wreath, 12 years of age: Your sweet baby girl has been taken away, Her body must again return to clay; But oh! why should we feel sadly bereft W hen we think what a sinful world she has left. We know full well it is all for the best, 1 or in heaven above she is now at rest; \\ hile on earth her body was racked with pain But now she will never be sick again. But oh, why should we lament her and weep ? 1 will not be long till we all shall meet, t or we know we all must die soon or late, Anu meet with our sad or joyful fate. Her spirit has taken its flight above, And is there abiding in peace and love; Cheer up and try to reach the fair sho *e, W here sorrow, pain and death are no more.
