Obituary..

LANGDoN.-Another name must now be
added to the list of those who have recently
been summoned from our midst. And with
it fresh vacancy is caused in the hearts of
very many. We refer to the decease of Mrs
Sarah Sumner Langdon, which took place
at the United States Hotel Boston, on Sum
day. Mrs. Langdon had been in poor health
for some three years past and was under
treatment for her eyes in the city. She was
taken with apoplexy late on the 18th in
stant, after spending an evening out with
friends, and steadily sank, conscious at
times and probably suffering little. Her
remains were brought here Monday evening
and prayers were held at the house yester-
day afternoon, the interment taking place
this forenoon. Mrs. Langdon was the
daughter of Hon. William and Sarah Keyes
Upham and was born in Montpelier May Z,
1921. Her entire life was spent here. In
1910 she was united in marriage to George
Langdon, most affectionately remembered.
Mr. Langdon died in 1870. Such are data.
But these are suggestive to those who knew
her of whom they are the formal record.
The life to which they pertain, though quiet
and retired, was one Of true excellency,
gentleness and sweetness. The spirit which
has flown had most exceptional power of
attracting, winning and permanently re-
tanning friendship, which it also gave most
freely. loneliness was hers, both of the
outward and inward nature. Courtesy was
as an atmosphere about her; justice a
principle and an instinct likewise. While
hospitality was freely bestowed on friends,
charity went out to whomsoever needed-not
grudgingy, but with a willing hand which
showed the sincere, ingenious nature of the
giver. A true Christian, she kept the faith,
fought the good fight and departed in full
confidence of life eternal. X.
SMITH.-George l., son of Mrs. Alma Smith,
and very promising young man, died at his
home on Saturday morning. He had been
in Florida during the past winter, and day
or two after his return was seized with
chills and the painful illness which, after
four or five weeks, terminated fatally. His
age was twenty-four years. The funeral
services, held yesterday, were largely at
tended, and the mother and brother who
survive have, in this and other facts, assur.
ance of the heartfelt sympathy of neighbors
and friends in their bereavement.

wealthy young artist who advertised
for a model, naming high price; scores
of women came, among them woman

he painted q picture of her that made
him famous. He never saw her face
Some wears afterward he met a beauti-
full girl living with an invalid mother in
Venice. He wooed her and they be-
came engaged. One night she tainted,
and he, in loosening the throat of her
gown, discovered on her neck little
dark mark he remembered seeing on
the throat of his beautiful model. He
told her of it, and she confessed. Her
mother had met with reverses, was i'll,
and they were in desperate want. She
could not leave her long enough to
work all day. She saw his advertise

A patent has recently been asked for
a new process by which it is proposed
to use the waste coal piles at the mouth
of every coal mine, and convert the
culm into a sort of gas that can be used
the same as natural gas is used. The
culm is to be broken up into pieces and
run into hopper. Out of the hopper
it comes in particles, and is fed to an
air-blast. This blast is broken into
different chambers, and in circulating
around each chamber the particles of
the culm rub against each other, until
by the time the last chamber is reached
they are reduced to fine dust that
floats around in the air current When
the last chamber is reached, the culm
passes through ITO mesh and comes
out in dark cloud. 1t is then fed
through pipes, like gas. The particles
of coal float in the air, and combine
with the oxygen of the air to make a
hot fire. The inventor claims that this
fuel will make no smoke, but will be
all consumed before reaching the
smoke-stack, owing to its fineness. The
trouble with the invention is that it
can be used only on large scale

and so we may have inqusitive old

of their dress makers.
The models of home gowns are
meant to be diversified enough to prove
the assertion already made-that indi-
vdutl tastes may nowadays be INDUCED
without being questionable. The ideas
of embellishments embodied in them
are simple. strong, and easily utilized.

same discrimination which is looked
for among women of wealth and leisure

deciding what to buy and how to wear
it. I his spring there is scarcely q

pIoyment of those ind vidual touches
which only the wearer of toilet can
impart. Certain garments may pre-

individuality of the costume, however,
is developed without plan and almos:
without purpose by what Worth calls
facility and his rivals call audacity.
