DEATH OF MISS MARY A. BoYsoN.


 The news of the death of Miss May Boyson, last Saturday, at her home in Palestine district brought sudden shock to her many young friends living about her, and indeed to many older ones all through the town. She was young la- dy but little over 21 years of age, win some in her manners and loved by a large circle of friends. Although never of re- bust body, her health had been compar- atively good until few months ago. A severe cough turned into that most dreaded of diseases, consumption, the progress of which, toward the last, was fearfully fast. Miss Boyson had recent l ly been staying with friends in North Wilton. Although very weak, last Sum- day, she was brought home comfC rtably in closed hack. 1t now appears that mercifully she came home that she might die tenderly cared for in the midst of those who were closest of kin. The fun eral took place from the home of her par ents, MT and Mrs H. F. Boyson, in Pal estine district, on Tuesday afternoon, March 9, at o'clock. The service was conducted by Rev Otis W. Barker, who spoke of the sympathetic and all-con- quering Christ, as He revealed Himself to the bereaved mother of Main. Among the friends present at the funeral service from out of town were MT and Mrs Mid. dlebrook, MT and Mrs Williams, Miss Porter and Miss Peterson. The pail bearers, young friends aud brothers of the deceased, were John Gilbert, Neil Gilbert, Bert Beers, Eugene Peck, Al bert Boyson and Lorenzo Boyson. A beautiful feature of the funeral service was the throwing of large punches ot flowers by the young friends of Mis- Boyson into the open grave.

VIEWPOINT, FRIDAY, MARCH 12.

The Pod-Auger Man.

O. o. W. EXPRESSES ADMIRATION FOR
 THE POET OF SHILOH.
 G. w. B. is always interesting, and l have so much admiration for the man that find myself very much in sympa- thy with him, even though do not agree with his sentiments. He does not favor the "trolley," and he is opposed to ''con- solidation,'' and it is not to be wondered at perhaps that in last weeks BEE he sat down on things ''scientific," in general. Still, when I read his sad refrain the first thing thought of was these words:
 "Tis true, 'tis pity;
 And pity 'tis tis true"
 His very frank confessions make me think of Mrs Stowe's Sam Lawson who always disarmed the parson by owning up everything to start with. It is hard work to quarrel with one who gives him. self so completely away. So, if I seem to make excuse for my esteemed friend who really deserves a good dose of it, you will understand.
 There are some soft, sentimental na lures that are so averse to the ''scientific'' that the simple statement of facts, like the multiplication table for instance, hurts their feelings. I do not mean to say that G. W. B. is so extreme as that but he is born poet, and the Muses in- spire one with great freedom of expres- sion. We expect the word-painter to soar above us in his thought .and imagi- nation whether he really knows anything about it or not. Whether he eyer did any "scientific farming" or ever heard any "scientific preaching" matters not; there is poetic way of looking at things and the man who talks in figured measures has license to sling anG toss his words.
 Moreover, different men represent diff. ferent periods in the history of the world, There is the ''pOd-auger" period, and the pod-auger man; the "screw-auger" peri od, and the screw-auger man; and the "square-hole auger," and the square-hole auger-man. Now, every man naturally belongs to his own period and squares himself by the kind of auger that goe' with it. The "pod-augel" man belongs to the "pod-auger" peried. It is al right, you cannot expect the"pod -auger'' man to be in love with the "square- hole auger" period, nor the "square-hole au- ger" man to wish to go back to the ''pod. auger" period.
 And so it sounds perfectly natural and proper to hear the "pod- d-auger" man cry ing out, "Oh for the good old pod.auger daysw
 shall never forget the told pod gu. ger," because tried to bore hole with one, when I was a boy. It was no use, 1t was out of date. I was born in the ''screw-auger" period, and must stick to my times, but I confess that I should like to see the "square-hole augef" work.
 And still believe there is more money in farming to-day, than ever before, pro. viding it is "scientific," and not "pod. auger" farming o. Wright.
