Three Manly Boys. In a "Letter to Boys'' in the Young Crusader," Miss Frances Willard tells this story "Let me tell you about three splendid boys I knew once on a time. Their father died, and their dear mother was left to bring them up and to earn the money with which to do it. By taking a few boarders, doing the work herself, and practicing strict economy, this blessed woman kept out of debt, and gave each of her sons a thorough college education. But if they hadn't worked like beavers to help her, she never could have done it.

Her oldest boy only fourteen treated his mother as if she were the girl he loved best. He took the heavy jobs of housework off her hands, put on his big apron and went to 'work with a will washed the potatoes, pounded the clothes, ground the coffee, waited on the table did anything and everything that he could coax her to let him do, and the two younger ones followed his example right along. Those boys never wasted their mother's money on tobacco, beer or cards. They kept at work, and found any amount of pleasure in it. They were happy, jolly bovs, too, full of fun, and everybody not only liked, but respected and admired them.

They ail married noble and true women, and to-day one of those boys is president of a college, goes to Europe every year, almost, and is in demand for every good word and work another lives in one of the most elegant houses in Evanston, and is my owii beloved physician" while a third is a well-to-do wholesale grocer in Pueblo, and a member of the citv council.

Deaths. WISHART. Maude Lee, the infant daughter of James F. and Eva Wishart, of Wilmington, N. was born December 31, 1897, and died June 6, 1899.

Maude was their only living child, and naturally her death has east a great gloom over her parents. She was a charming, bright and beautiful child, and very attractive, and though frail in body, she was very sprightly, and wise beyond her age. Brother and Sister Wishart are sorely bereaved in the loss of this their only child, who was such a precious gift to them, but they have the sympathy of a -whole community, and the support of our Heavenly Father. They will live so as to meet her and other loved ones in that world without sorrow. Andrew P.

Tyer. In Memoriam. A service was held in Mt. Olivet Church. Manteo, last Sunday, in memory of three members who had died since the protracted meeting a year ago, the protracted meeting being in progress.

Appropriate resolutions by the Woman's Foreign Missionary Society and obituary by her pastor, appeared in the papers, but one knowing, as I do, how much sister Rosa A. Evans is missed, both in the church and in her home, could never pass over her name without stopping, in sadness, to drop a flower. I miss no one more than sister Evans unless it bemy precious mother who, too, had taken passage more than a year ago to that country where no sorrow nor sighs ever invade. Bro. C.

E. Hooper was ever faithful to his church, and was always ready to do anything in his power to advance his Masters cause, in the Sunday school and prayer services often i leading. His piety was nowhere more appa- rent than in his home, and his sorrowing wife and children sorely miss him. I visited Bro. Hooper in his last illness, and while he seemed anxious to live, he was resigned to the Father's will.

He had planned for the entertainment of the District Conference, which was to meet on Roanoke Island, but before the Conference convened he was called to "the conference of the blest." Bro. Willie J. R. Melson was reared in Tyrrell County, N. but moved to this place about eight years ago, and bringing an honorable name with him, continued to deport himself so as to gain the perfect confidence of all who knew him.

Bro. Melson was fitted for almost any position in the church and if his pastor had need of a man upon whom all factions united, he never hesitated to call upon him. He was first Vice-President of our Epworth League, and as disease preyed upon his young body (for he was only about thirty years old) he often became despondent at the seeming indifference of the members, but I am persuaded that his labor was not in vain; and if the light afflictions of his life have brought to him a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory they will, I hope, as surely bring out a host of our young men and women who will be willing, if need be, to suffer and to die for Christ's sake. Roanoke Island Station and the people generally, and none more than the teachers who have been and others who may be sent there, will long feel their loss, but surely we know where to find him. Friends, church, relatives, all, let us keep in mind and remember he is not dead, but asleep in Jesus, and has only preceded us to the better land where sorrow and parting can never enter and the smile of the Lord is the feast of the soul.

"Be ye also ready." While God has, in His love for a shining mark, visited our little flock and plucked three gems for the upper division of His kingdom, eight have been added to our number and others are now ready to carry the work on. "God buries His workmen and carries His work on." "He moves in mysterious ways." Are You Like Him? Jesus loved and prayedfor his enemies. Do you? He rejoiced, though he had nowhere to lay His head. Do You? He rejoiced when all forsook Him and fled. Do vou.

He went among the poor and lowly to lead them to God. Do you? He denied Himself comfort and ease that others might find peace to their troubled souls.
