But even sickness has its bright side. Shakespeare says "Sweet are the uses of adversity which, like; the toad, ugly and venomous, wears yet e precious jewel iii its head." oae of the great alleviations of sickness is the kindness of one's, friends. Otte .feels' under a lasting obligation to them ,for their ,pleasant calls. their.pleasittg words tend their other kindly ministrations, And then there is the pleasure of getting well again, and feeling that one wilt once more be of some use in the world, for which one thanks from the depths of his heart The Great Giver of alt good. think all men mortal •but themselves, expresses a universal -truth may fairly •. be open tq question; but ,`there -is no ' doubt .that it is true in many cases: To., many ;people ,in perfect health death seems to be away in the van- ishing point. of the future's perspec- tive plane. Often they are reminded of death by the passing over into the Unknown of near and dear ones, and trey Say "My turn will surely , come" 'but they do not realize the i full,import of these true and solemn ' words, They titter them as. glibly as they would say "good mor ting" to emotion. . em n ifriettd, and with as little They go blithely on their way, wholly oaken up iwith the things of time and sense, as though .this world were to be their eternal•dwelling place. The fact is few of us are like the Appstle Paul, "having a desire to depart." 'vM are rather like Henry Ward Beecher who was "dreadfully at hpme" in this world. Of course, we cannot be always thinking about our final hour. Nor would it be well for us' to be, but some thinking about it, might, per- haps, have a modifying influence on our words and -conduct. The Bible says, "O that they were wise—that they would consider their Utter end," and our' friend the •poet says "'Tis well to -have 'familiar thoughts with. death." But sickness comes. Sickness, which Alexander 'Pope calls "a sort of early old age, which teaches us a diffidence iia our earthly state." It. tells us with uncomfortable emphasis, that after all, we are physically -frail— that there is but a step between us and death—that "the• spider's most attenuated thread is cord, is cable, to anan's tender tie on earthly bliss; it breaks at every breeze," The doctor is called, and soon.he enters the "sick room," with a coun- tenance not too lugubrious, but with- al expressive of a 'due sense of his responsibility. Nor does he'try to 'impress the patient with the notion h ith for some time. She is survived by four brothers and one sister, besides her parents. The funeral was held on 'Saturday after- noon to Brussels cemetery, the 'ser- vices being conducted by Rev. Dr, Brown of Walton United C hunch.
