near, and while there she was stricken with
another shock from which she never rallied.
On Friday she was moved to her own home
where she died Sunday morning some fif-

leaves six children, the youngest seven
years of age. Much sympathy is felt for
the family in their loss. The funeral of
Mrs. Wilder and daughter was in Dexter s
hall on Wednesday, Rev. A. j. Martin Of
fciating, assisted by Rev. Mr.. Bartlett. Mr..
Martin made fitting remarks, taking his

Apropos OF the sensational story which
was published some time ago to the effect
that a syndicate in Japan was preparing
TO manufacture bicycles and to place them on
the American market at figure which
would enable them to be sold retail for S12
apiece, the eaccountof how they manufacture
wheels in Japan is not calculated to create
very heavy demand for such inferior ma
chimes. American manufacturers have not
much t" fear from Japan or any other coun-
try in the matter of bicycles, as the Ameri-
can wheels are recognized as the standard

The general excellence which distinguishes
our bottled beers is not due to good mate
rials alone, to the skill with which they
converted into the amber fluid but in a
measure to the great care which is exercised
in bottling.
If exposed to change of temperature, beer
will suffer. Our beer is bottled at the same
temperature at which it leaves the vaults,
thereby insuring that vivacity and perfect
condition for which it is justly celebrated.
