As they were all coming out of the theater to-

No, the pretty girl returned with glance

The Future Of the Corn Product.


The Corn MlIIer
We want to go on record with the prediction
that in ten years from now the corn interests of
this country will have developed to such an ex.
tent that twice the animal amount now going
into manufactures will be required to supply the
demand for the numerous food products that
will be manufactured from it. The national
taste for corn goods has improved wonderfully
of late, and it is good sign. Corn is just as
much natural food for man as wheat or rice.

Commence the Year Right.


DON'T make too many resolutions, but
hold on like grim death to those you dc
make. If your physical system is out OF
order you should attend to that at once; for
it's no use trying to keep stiff upper lip
when your kidneys or liver are taking the
courage out of you. If you have really
made up your mind to turn over new leaf
commence the year by taking a thorough
course of the celebrated Kidney-Wo Wort
Thousands of people testify to its good
effects for kidney diseases, biliousness, piles
constipation, etc.
Mr.. w. II. WRIGHT, president Traders
Bank, Kirwin, Kansas, says: " For year
suffered from kidney troubles, but after
taking Kidney-Wort the pains have left me
and am much stronger"

kidney trouble, constipation and piles

Obituary..

NyE-In the death of Sylvanus f. Nye,
which occurred on February 2Sth, the town
of Berlin loses one of its most worthy Off
Gals and public-spirited citizens. Born
siXty-siX years ago, on the farm on which he
died, he was well-known to the people Of
Berlin and was at various times entrusted
by them with the duties of almost every
office within their gift. In; every po-
sition, whether of public office or pri-
vate trust he performed the duties de-
volving upon him with marked credit to
himself and with benefit to those whose in
terests were committed to him. For over
twenty-five years he was the precentor of
the Congregational society, and what an in
terest he took in the welfare of that society
none but its members know. He was a con-
stituent member of the temperance organi-
cation in Berlin and leader in the temper
ance movement throughout Washington
county. AS husband and father he was
loving and self-sacrificing, and as friend,
loyal and true. Surely his loss will be sorely
felt by all who knew him, for indeed none
knew him but to love him; none named him
but to praise" E. t. K.
SwAN.-Mrs. Lois A. Swan died at Cabot
February LIST, 1886 She was daughter Of
the late Leonard Orcutt and was the last of
the circuit family. In her death the whole
community are the mourners, and the public
have met with great loss Her death is
not only felt as great loss to her family,
Dut all VINO nave known ner III social rela-
tons feel IL as great bereavement. She was
in life a lady of loneliness, and in death
even her remains seemed to retain this ele-
ment In her last sickness she was great
sufferer, but very patient, never complain
ing, and her smiling countenance told of the
heavenly peace within. She was u Christian
woman in the fullest sense of the term-de-
voted to the work as duty and pleasure
implicitly trusting in God and Christ, faith
full TO life which has made the world better
because it was in it, She never thought OF
self, but spent her life in the service OF the
sick and the afflicted, without money and
without price. Her home was hospitable
because her heart was large, and any one
was her friend to whom she could minister
But her heart was like the old Jewish
tempe-stranger only came into the court
OF the Gentiles, friends into an inner court
and her intimate friends found court YET
nearer her heart of hearts; yet even they
knew that there was holy of HOLES, which
she kept for her God, and they loved and
revered her the more for it, A touching in
cident of her funeral was the very i'm
pressive discourse OF her minister, Rev. III
A. Russell, founded upon the words Of hel
own selection: For me to live is Christ

oh, the days will dawn and the days will fade,
And grasses spring in the evergreen glade,
And the sun will shine on mound of earth
And mourners will sit by lonely hearth,
And her memory bless who cannot be there
And longing to see that smile again,
SO like the rainbow after the rain
And those who have hung ON the words Of her lips,
As bee from the nowret sweet honey sips,
VIII listen in vain for words from the wise,
Like raindrops withheld by Saharian skies.
For hushed is the voice which gave sweet replies,
Faded the light of the beautiful eyes
Folded the hands, which wrought with such skill
In labors of love, for the good and the Ill.
And the months will come and the months will 20,
The frosts will leave and "the beautiful snow"
And friends will think by the firelghts glow,
OF treasures buried in the earth so low.
And spring birds will sing DER the once fair head
Their daintiest songs for the sainted dead,
And earth will rejoice in its summer hues
And flowers expand with the early dews.
And the years will pass and centuries glide,
Ourselves no more on the earth abide
But oh, there's a home In fairer land
Whose children are always happy band
