Thoughts on the Death of a Child
Dear Mrs. ,| have just a few mo- ments ago heard of your great loss in the death of your little girl, and I sit down at once to write to you, not with any thought of consoling you, but simply to express my sympathy with your husband and you in what is probably the greatest affliction of your married life, When last I saw her
'she was with you one afternoon in the early
summer in the shop on Queen Street. She was very bright and happy looking and I have a distinct recollection of her appear- ance at the time. You will be no longer able to take her out with you aad have pleasure in her smiles and brightness, and prettiness; but dear Mrs, , Lam sure you think of her in the right way, as being not gone away from you, but only gone within the veil which hides God from us, who remain without. That veil is only the screen which divides the world of things seen, from the world of things not seen. These two worlds, I am sure, work into each other and are near each other. Those who leave us simply go where they can see God. God is with us, close beside us and all around us. Where He is there is no such thing as time or distance, or
‘separation or absence ; everything is one
great present, and so it seems to me that those who see Him are not parted in any, real sense from us who as yet do not see Him. Your little girl is simply enjoying all that wonderfui happiness that comes from seging God. I say ‘‘from seeing God,” eee that includes all happiness, such happiness as we can form no concep- tion of, and such as our language could not find words to express. Surely this is an ad- vantage whichno child who remains on earth can enjoy. Had she remained with you, good advantages would have been what you would have most wished for her. Advan-' tages of training, advantages of education, advantages ip all ways that would fit her for life in the best possible manner. This, I am sure, would have been your object for her; but now she has all the advantages that could have been given her here, and nore, The best training she could have received here would have been imperfect— now her training is in hands that never fail, and she herself is in a position to profit by , itall. People, I suppose tell you that she’ is ** better off” than she ever would be on earth. That, I know, is the common way of expressing one’s sympathy with those bereaved; but we often use those words ‘** better off” in a hollow way, without thinking how much they mean. To be always growing better off is one of the things that you would have chosen for her if such a choice were possible. And in order that she might be better off you would have borne with much self-sacrifice, you would have given up things for her sake and you would have gone without pleasures on your own part, in order that she might have them on hers.
Well, this is exactly what she requires of you now; to bear with sacrifice for the sake of the great advantage to her; to suffer the loss on your part for the sake of the gain op hers. You would have done it very; gladly had she remained in your sight ; but there is none the less need because you only do not see her. You are still her mother; your husband is still her father ; she is still your daughter. You still duties towards her just as if she was daily in your sight. not lost her, simply because has gone where your eyes
she
said to have lost her had she gone to Eng- land. Suppose she had some talent that required great cultivation—and I am con- fident that you would have willingly sent her to Europe, perhaps for years, in order
tage. You would have suffered in the part- ing and in her absence, but you would have borne it for the sake of her good. Well, it is precisely the same now. The advan- tages she is enjoying are so great that those who love her must try to rejoice in her joy, and not wish to lessen it or take it from her. She is not lost to you, and you are not lost to her. Death cannot separate those whom God has made to love each other. Her love to you will straight out of Paradise, and your love to her can follow her into her new home. Nothing can destroy love— especially the love of parent and child. It begins with the infant’s first breath, and it goes on far beyond this little life, far beyond the gates of death, into the unend- ing life with God. Please do not think that any tie is broken, or that anything has come to an end. There is nothing ended by death that we should like to have con- tinued. Our life goes on always just the same, only removed into a higher sphere of interest. Se, then, your little Ethel is in a home happier than any on earth, with more advantages than she could ever have received,—and this isa great point. She is safe for all the future. It is hard, | know, to part with the child whom we have loved; but believe me, Mrs. —, it is the greater blessing for the parent in the long run. You are only a young mother yet, and you have not seen your children grow up to be tev old for your own guid. ance and control, and so you don’t know the terrible tanxiety and worry of seeing them every now and then on the brink ot The pleasure of having children to
ruin. care for very quickly merges into the pain of seeing those childrenin constant danger from one kind of evil or another, and in feeling one’s own helplessness to guard them against it. I know of no suffering so great as that of the mother who can only sit still and watch her children continually f trouble or another. this ; but
falling into one kind « Believe me, few parents escape in this case «at. least, will not have it.
you, Your daughter is safe from all suffering, from “li danger, trialand sin forever. Is
not that a great comfort? She is being kept for you where she can never be in danger, and where she will always be safe. Perhaps you have felt it hard that God should take her from you. But remember

that He can see into the future and we can not. He can see exactly what the conse- quences would have been if she had been ailowed to stay with you. Seeing these He judged it best to take her. Itis hard, but we may be quite certain that it is best. His judgments are always founded on complete knowledge of all that goes to make up our lives. He saw what your life or hers would be if you were left together and in His love for you both He parted you for a little while before any cloud could come over your *ffection. She isa happy mother who knows that her child is safe, and in all your grief I hope that thought will be a comfort to you. No harm can come to her ; her life, happy on earth, is much happier in Paradise, and your Ethel’s life from in- fancy to eternity will be quite free from the touch of care.
Please forgive me if 1 have takena liberty in writing you this long letter. I do so only because since hearing of your sorrow I have had you much in mind. With kindest sympathy with Mr. and Mrs. believe me,
Yours very sincerely, W. B. K——.
Gpinions Differ. AS TO THE S'TRENGTH AND VITALITY OF THE LRISH LAND BILL.
After the presentation of the Land Pur- chase Bill by Mr. Balfour in the Commons, Mr. Gladstone made a speech at a dinner at the National Liberal Club. In the course of his remarks he spoke of the bill as a bold measure which involved the Brit- ish taxpayers assuming large pecuniary liability, and which, therefore, demanded searching consideration.
The Post, referring to the Land Pur- chase Bill, says: ‘“‘It must be frankly ad- mitted that the plan for obtaining seedful security is complicated and artificial, while any organized resistance to its operation would in the end invelve a recourse to drastic measures If it can be bettered, nobody is more likely to welcome the fact than Mr. Balfour. Unless this is done, it deserves the treatment due to the only feasible scheme under public notice,”
The Daily News says: *‘ A more elabor- ate and complicated measure than the Land Purchase Bill has seldom if ever been in- troduced in Parliament, One thing stands out clearly from the tangled labyrinth— that the British credit may be pledged , to the extent of £33,000,000 for the benefit nominally of the Irish tenant, but reaily for the benefit of the landlord. While he was speaking many of his hearers must have reflected that the voice was indeed Balfour’s, but the hand was Goshen’s. The flagarant inequality of the scheme, nomi- nally applicable to the whole country, bat really limited by the arbitrary will of the landlords, must result in chavs and dis-
You would do this! oder.” gladly, willingly, finding a greater satisfac-| tion in her pleasure than in your own. |
The Times says: ‘*On the whole the bill seems to promise the creation in process of time of a peasant propriety on a very large scale, without practically involving the British Exchequer or taxpayers in any ad- ditional risk whatever.”
Mr. Parnell says the Land Purchase Bill is objectionable in the highest degree.
Mr. Davitt is equally pronounced against the bill as an insidious proposal to give the landlord more than the value of his land.
Ulster Tories approve of the Land Pur- chase Bill, regarding the security sound.

News Notes.
A company has been organized in Chicago which, its promoters say, will. build the largest plate glass factory in the world at Ellwood, Ind. The capital stock is $2,000,- 000.
The millions that have been spent in the last thirty years in providing safe-guards against floods along the Mississippi River seem to have had little effect. At any rate with the rise of the waters the levees con- tinually give way and the lands are devas- tated just as when the river was the great highway eftravei. The great father of waters has little regard for human attempts at control,
One of the most interesting of modern archeological discoveries is reported from Canterbury, where on opening an ancient tomb in the south wall of the cathedral the remains of Cardinal Langton, who bore a big part in the struggle for Magna Charta and died in 1228, were found undisturbed in a stone coffin. Not only were the feat- ures distinguishable, but a very beautiful and unique collection of episcopal vest- ments, with a ring, staff, mitre, chalice, and paten, was obtained, which has been placed among the treasures of the cathedral library.
A statistician estimates that when the United States have got through paying the men who fought for the Union in the “‘late unpleasantness,” there gwiill be found to have Leen expended in bounties and pen- sions alone the sum of $4,900,000,000—or more than the value of all the lands, houses and slaves in the South at the beginning of the war. These figures scarcely seem ex- aggerated in view of the fact that the milit- ary appropriations of the Republic for 1890 will very nearly, if nut quite, equal those of Germany. ‘The smalier expenditure on army aud navy is made up for by the enor- mous pension outlay.
