KISNER.—Died at his home in St. Joseph, Mo., Feb. 24, 1908, Brother Kisner, aged 24 years. From earliest childhood he was an earnest Christian. His parents, Brother and Sister G. H. Kisner, have been for many years actively engaged in the work, and it was his ambition to become a worker for God. For about three years he was employed in the office of the Wisconsin Tract Society, but failing health made it necessary to give up the work he loved. With his young wife and parents he moved to Missouri, where, after a year of patient suffering, we laid him to rest. A noble and talented young man has laid down the armor, but the memory of his consistent life will be an inspiration to many. MEADE MAC GUIRE.
