house of her own in Rangeley village :.
A day or two ago she stepped on a
needle. Tt was driven into her foot so
far that the local physician could not
remove it. The old lady would not take
ether, but heroically stood the pain of
his cutting her foot in search of the
needle for over an hour. She came to
the hospital here to have the needle re-
moved.
She and her husband settled in the

Mrs. Soule says that moose would come

prime of her strong womanhood, her
husband had to make short journey.

bear traps while he was gone and she
said she could. She rowed five miles

but she was not expecting TO have to
use it, but there was big bear in the

came the she bear and two cubs. She
shot the mother bear and let the cub
go. Then she skinned the second bear
and lowed home. five miles with the
skins.
Mrs. Soule enjoys a vigorous old age.
Her eye is as Keen and bright as when
it glanced along the rifle barrel and
killed the two bears That she could
allow her foot to be probed and cut for
over an nour without talking ether is
Indicative of her physical strength and
courage, at her present age.
She is the mother of twelve children.

think that others should be allowed to
drink is hardly feasible. So, when men
demand less hours for work they should
show that they are capable of using
those extra hours proftably An ideal
state will never be reached until
human nature is perfect. Great reforms
are not accomplished so much by great
reformers as by the thousands of quiet
people Influenced by books, the press,
and more than all else, the influence of
their homes The influence the woman
suffragist will WELD will be comparative
ly nothing compared to that she exerts
over the child at home. Abraham Lin
coin is sterling exemplary of this fact
If anarchy and chaos are to be averted,
it will be by means of the church and
Sunday school. England was kept from
the horrors that marked the French rev
olution by the influence of Wesley and
the Methodists. At the present day, rel
igious scholarship is departing and fussy
parish work is taking it's place.
The paper was quite vigorously dis
cussed. Rev. Mr.. Marsh felt that his pull
pit was always free for him to express
his views on whatever topic he saw fit
Rev. Mr.. New bert felt that there were
times when clergyman should express
himself forcIbly on live issues from his
