A GOOD WOMAN GONE.
In loving remembrance of my dear
friend, Mips Ellen Tatum, who has left
us to he forever with the Lord sho lov
ed so well and served so faithfully.
Sho was one of the old school, educat
ed, cultured, refined and Bweet spirited.
She was so filled with the spirit of love
there was room left for nothing more.
She was a great sufferer, hut support
ed by His will she had power to bear
all.
As far as in her power she helped all
who were in need, wept with those who
wept, rejoiced with those who rejoiced
and especially did she love little child
ren. Her tenderness to the old and
feeble was beautiful to see und how
precious is the memory of her kindness
to :ny dear old father. She would for
get her own ailments and try to help
him. We sorely miss her, but know
where to find her when the summons
comes to us, for sho mtt her “Pilot
face to face to when she crossed the
Bar.” C. G.
i.ioniously blended, constituted the home
influence. Like the calm, deep stream,
it moves on in silent but overwhelming
power. It strikes its roots deep into
the human heart, and SDreads iis bran
ches wide over our whole being. Life
the lilv that braves the tempest and
"the Alpine flower that leans its cheek
on the bosom of etornal snow,” it is ex
erted amid the wildest storms of life
and breathes a softening spell in our
bosom even when a heartless world is
freezing up the fountaing of sympathy
and love. It holds the empire of the
heart and rules the life. Our habits,
too; are formed under the moulding
power of home. The “tender twig” is
there bent, the spirit shaped, principles
implanted, and the whole character is
formed until it becomes a habet. The
grav haired father who walks in the
second infancy, feels the tiaces of his
childhood home in his spirit, desires
and habits. The most illustrious state-
men and eloquent ministers owe their
greatness to the fostering influence of
home. Napoleon knew and felt this
when he said, “What France wants is
good mothers, and you may be sure
then that France will have good sons.”
