The impoeeibility to obtain help during her father's and brother's illness, she was obliged to do the bulk of the heavy weakling, almost every day of the week for several weeks, and far into the nights, a task which ebe was not equal to, with the result that ber strength gave out and she fell an easy victim to the dieeaee. Her father's death also very much diebeartened her. Bertha was the baby and pet of the lam• ily, and her sudden taking away was peculiarly sad. She had nota serious attack of the fever, no hemorrhages, she died broken•beartod for those the gave her life to save, She was barely nine. teen, an amiable, noble spirited girl, and her death leaves a void in the home and hearts of her people which owe never be Ailed.
