Will You Be Missed? Some of these days you, who are reading this article, are going to die and pass on to your reward —whatever that reward may be. But will you leave a void behind? Will you be missed? The Creator has ordained that man must carve out his own ca reer in this world, and when he journeys to the great unknown he leaves behind him a record lound ed upon his own acts. You may leave behind you a wife or child ren or other dependents. As you deal by them in life, so will their grief be gauged and tempered at at your death. Will they miss you? in this town you have friends and business asssociates, and per haps many acquaintances. They know you as you are, as you have been for many years. They have judged you living, and they will judge you dead. Will they miss you? In the banks, and the stores, and the offices, and out upon the farms, are people who have known you in the past and who know to-day. As you have been, so are you known to them now. Will they miss you? In the house of darkened win dows, where sweet-toned music soothes the tired brain and the minister tells the ways of a better life, are many people who know you for your acts and your deeds —for that which you have per formed or have left undone. Will they miss you? In our homes are many little children who know you, who have passed you on the streets, who perchance may have been greeted with a kindly smile or with a frown. They will remember you. But will they miss you? Even your faithful animals or pets know you as you are, and as you have been to them. Will they miss you? There is no place you may go no point of the compass to which you may turn, but what people have known you or will know you, and by all of these you will be judged when you have passed away. As yuo shape your career in life, so do you write the record by which you will be konvvn after death, Your family, your associ ates, your acquaintainces, even your dumb brutes, will remember you after you have passed on- But will you be missed? —Buch- anan Tribune.
