Her presence in the class always left a touch of honor and saintly character which will abide with us. We regret that in tins meager paper we can not say ail we wish about this elect christian woman. Her influence for good during hi r life is bevoiid computation. In her early girlhood, having married a pi mu inent 'rofvssnr in the schools and colleges contact vvitl she was brought in close girls and young women tioin several states. Thus her training not only in the li rist ian graces, but in I hristian education her influence will have no end. Since coining to our city her life has been above reproach, and was an ins,ira' ion to all who love the best things in life. When the angels came for her on that ipiiet Sabbath afternoon, the joy of her luavcnly welcome touched her face with a smile of heavenly felicity which re-, iaaine.1 there until she was borne from our sigh'. As she was beautiful in her Christian life, so was she beautiful in her triumphant death. Therefore, ae it resolved: First, That we emulate her gentle re fined manner, her strong Christian prin ciples, and the love and sympathy which slii' gave in unlimited measure to the needy fo whom she contributed largely the )est of her life and means. Second, That we hereby extend to the bereaved relatives our deep and heart felt sympathy and commend them to the Great Comforter. Third, That a copy of theso resolu tions be sent to the family, also a copy sent to Tho Christian Advocate, one to The Gazette and one to the Main Street Methodist Bulletin. MRS. B. F.

It contains a l...it forty names, but the machine ran 'it- made to contain up to 20 names, where .,iili is desTred at large stations. Veteran railroad men who have seen Mr. McMillan's invention in operation hre are cut luisitic about it and predict for it an almost universal use. One of the prime uses is in stamping "ngs-nge cheks. In addition to printing tin- name of the destination plainly, spaces .-, ;,mi provided in the machine for stamping "Had Order," " Xot Lock d." and other information as to. baggag,. condition. This is expected to s.ne :i good deal of claims against rail roads Ly baggage owners. Railroad ottices have never been provi ded vvi'h a machine that could be gener ally ii'ed in stamping destinations, these) having to be written on tickets and bag gage checks. On the latter this lend often to a misreading of destination and inisca i ria 'c of baggage, resulting in in convo'iit'iii : t'er travelers and cost and trouble lor the railroad. Win-re thousands of tickets are sold each week it takes lots of time to write in destinations, whereas it requires al most no time to do this with the stamp ing machine. This will give tlie ticket agent opportunity to wait on patrons at a more rapid rate and hould result in better tempers f,,r the traveling public. The machine is simple in its eonstrue tmn and can Le manufactured for a very reasonable sum. thus putting it within reach of all railroad offices, it is said. Representatives for the s a
