AFTERWARD.
There’s never a storm so wild
But after it follows a calm;
There’s never a hurt so great
But somewhere’s provided a balm;
re’s never a night so dark
But after it follows the idawn.
There’s never a shadow fills
But after it follows the light;
There’s never a sorrow comes
But after it comes delight.
There’s never a sky so gray
But after it follow’s the "blue;
There’s never a false friend found
But later you’ll find a true.
There’s never a heart that breaks
But after a while it will heal;
There’s never a moan of pain
but after a laughter peal.
There’s never a sin so black
But forgiveness is found at last;
There’s never a weary day ,
But some time ’twill be past;
There’s never a night so dark
Brut dawn will come at last.

Robitzsch, was born 1831, (mouth and
date not known to the writer,) in New
Hanover county, North Carolina, and
after a protracted illness departed this
life April 27th, 1903, at Evergreen,
Irwin county, Ga. She joined the.
Methodist church when quite young
and ever after sought to live up to the
requirements of a true Christian. She
was devoted to her Bible, to which she
always resorted to for spiritual com
fort and instruction. Her unselfish
and sympathising nature and desire
to help others won for her the love and
esteem of all who knew her. Nine
children, five sons and four daughters
also two brothers and two sisters
survive her to mourn their loss.
May the Lord of mercy and all
grace comfort the bereaved and grief
stricken children and brothers and
sisters. May the lord in Meray show
them tpat their loss is her Eternal
gain.
Her sons and daughters, are A. E.

She crossed in the twilight gray and cold.
The pale mist hid from our view.
We saw not the angel who met her
there.
The gates of the city we could not see.
Over the river, yes over the river
My mother stands waiting for me.
Over the river, the boatman pale.
Carried my mother the household pet.
Her gray curls waved in the gale.
Darling mother, I see her yet.
She crossed on her bosom her dimpled
hands.
And fearlessly entered the phantom bark.
We saw it glide from the silver strand.
She crossed on her bosom her dimpled

SOME SUNDAY READING.
Some Serious Thoughts for the man
or Woman Who Seeks the Truth.
Counterfeit religion resembles
the genuine, but under c’ose exam
ination is found to be false. There
is no such, thing as counterfeit infi
delity, because there is no genuine
to pattern after. The more valu
able the article, the more numer
ous will be the imitations. Hence
the cause for so many spurious re
ligious experiences.
Yes, you can have church mem
bership, baptism, an intellectual
faith, in Jesus, and your pastor’s
sanction as a faithful Christian;
morality, gentle manners, and a
loving disposition; a generous
heart, and be known as a harmless,
sympathetic person ; the reputation
of being a great church, temper
ance and Sabbath school worker;
the esteem of good people, and a
feeling of satisfaction because you
think you have done your duty ;a
zeal for the cause, and confidenc
in your mind that your church
and its doctrines are true and
founded on the Bible .
Friend, you can have all the
above, and yet if you have never
repented and been converted, you
are as sure to miss heaven as the
drunkard or gambler. You may
say, “I do not understand that; I
was 'always kind and good from a
child : I was baptized, catechised,
and confirmed in the church, and
have been trying to live up to the
rules ever since,” Very well, but
listen to Jesus, “Except ye be
converted, ... ye shall not enter
into the kingdom of heaven.”
“Ye must be born again.” Matt.
18:3; J ol, . n 3; 7-
Conversion is the starting point
in Christianity, and without it
your religion is connterfeit. But
perhaps you say, “I was convert
ed.” True, but what does your
religion do for you now? Does it
cause you to “love your enemies,
do good to them which despite
fully use you?” “Whosoever
hateth his brother is a murder
er.” “If a man say I love GoJ
and hateth his brother he is a
liar.” 1 John 3:15; 4 : 2 °- Does
it keep you from getting mad and
“cut of patience” when things go
wrong? Does it save you from
speaking of the faults and fail
ings of others? Does it give you
victory over you passions and un
clean habits, such as obacco and
every “iust of the flesh?” Does
it make those with whom you live
have confidence t- at you are a
pure, holy Christian? Are you
dead to the world’s customs and
pleasures, such as festivals, shows,
sociables, betting games, fash
ionable dress, etc., and have you
lost your love for these things?
“If any man love the world, the
love of the Father is not in
him.” Whosoever therefore will
be a friend of the world is the
enemy of God.” James 4 : 4> 1
John 2: 15. Does it give you
“joy unspeakable and lull of
glory?” “Reace as a river?” If
your religion does not do the
above for you (especially from
this time on.) it is a counter
feit and a sham.
To-nieht Thy Soul May Be Reauired
Of Thee.
“Boast not thyself of to-mor
row, for thou knowest not what
a day may bring forth.” —Rrov.

“For what is your life? It is
even a vapor that ippeareth for a
little time and then vanisheth a
way .” —James 4 : 14.
“The jncertainty of life is
shown by the following true in
cidents :
A lady retired at night appa
rently well; in the morning she
was found dead.
A mayor sat down to dinner,
threw back his head, and w.tf) a
groan expired.
During a revival a young man
said he was going to seek God
in a few nights; the next day he

went to work and was killed by
an explosion.
A workman kissed his wife and
children as he left home in the
morning; in a few hours he was
brought home dead.
A trusty horse became frighten
ed, ran away, and a young man
and lady were thrown out and
killed.
A crowd of people went on an
excursion trip; the train was
wrecked, and thirty were hurled
into eternity.
Two young men walking along
the street were struck by light
ning and instantly killed.
An engineer while speeding a
long with his hand upon the throt
tle was struck by paralysis and
passed into eternity.
Friend, you may be ushered into
eternity as suddenly as any of
these; any way, sooner or later
death will come.
To-day you are busy working
and planning for the future. To
morrow all is quiet, your eyes are
closed, your hands are folded, hut
your immortal sou! has gone—
gone to eternity.
Will you not attend to the sal
vation of your soul now, and thus
be prepared for death and the
judgement? “It is appointed un
to man once to die, but after
this the judgement.”—lleb. 9: 27.
Mrs. Grundy Says,
That there is
/ZfeJk so much inarry
- | that she would
v-'v-’ not care if Mr.
Grundy would disappear so she
could try it again. She wouid sure.
That there are young dudes all
over town who would get mad if
you invited them into tne kitchen
to see the cook, but if he could wed
your daughter he’d send her to the
kitchen to* cook, in short order.
Despisable things!
That just before I’retty Bird’s
marriage she wrote the editor ot the
Breeze such a pretty letter that he
put it away carefully to keep others
from seeing it, and now, after
searching a week, he can’t find it
himself. Oh, dear, dear.
That the man who says tlie
“world owes him a living and he
is going to have it,” is a mighty
bad man to have to owe you, or the
world either.
That to hear some men brag on
their wives it would remind you of
a horse trader, who wants to sell a
horse, —maybe it is all the same, and
the fellow would like to get rid of
his wife. Just like the mean
| things!
That she would rather have ten
cents in her own hand than a dollar
in Mr. Grundy’s pocket. It would
J do her more good.
I That since it is found out that
the president of the United States
carries a pistol Mr. Grundy declares
lie mnst have one. Mr. Grundy
must want to get the drop on the
fool-killer.
That he meanest man she ever
knew was the one who bought an
engagement ring for his bride be
fore marriage, on time, and then
after marriage made her take in
sewing and washing and pay the
jeweler for the ring on the install
ment plan. Wasn’t he mean?
First Cost Not The Cheapest.
The first cost of an article does
not necessarily determine its cheap
ness. For instance, a sack of
“Clifton” flour may cost you a
little more than other so-called,
patent flours, but it will he cheaper
to you in the end. Why? Because
it will not only make more bread
to the sack, but will take less lard
and soda to make it. Order a sack
of “Clifton” and make a test for
yourself. It wil prove the truth
c-f this statement.
