IS. ID. Carpenter, whom all know
as Pump has perfected his Ameri-
can Harvester, and Reaper with Binder
attachment. The genial "Pump" Will,
we hope, make a fortune, and we know
all the "Hay-makers'; and Graders
will rise up earl y in the morning, and
call him--"Pump" as long as he
lives, and we mean to call him Pump"
in that other world, and we know that
lots Of ''the boys will be anxious to
call him 'Pump'' in that other locality
where they have never pump, nor a
Carpenter to patch Up their "housen"
builded Of hay and stubble, -but
what has all this to do with the Amer

Another gone to join the Che
rus OF the Skies.-Our people are
again called upon to bid good bye for
time to another of those whom they
have known 50 we'll and so favorably
in years past. Mrs. Myra Taylor,
wife Of our townsman Clark Taylor,
and sister of r. G. and B. F. Worth
ington event home last Sunday
morning. Mrs. Taylor's illness was
brief, and her departure though unex-
pected, was full of that JOY that comes
to those as Of whom we all know Myra
to have been. We have known her in
the youth of womanhood; as q girl
joyful and ever genial, full Of true
goodness and gentleness, impressing
every one With whom she became to
be known with the true nobility of her
womanly character. She was beloved
by all and in her going away she made
that love more tangible by her resigna-
ton and trustful!ness. Her home is
now with the angels, her dwelling
! place the courts of heaven, her COM
panions a countless multitude Of the
beautiful and good. Let US not think
of her as dead, but as living in a
erander sense than ever be-
fore Mrs TAYLOR became member
of the Congregational Church a short
time ago, and her life has been a
beautiful approximation Of Christian
| faithfulness to the end. We can al
most h ear her footsteps as she mounts
the golden stairs, and though we say
good bye it is only for a time,-we
do not say farewell. ;"
