this than Mrs. Lord herself. She looks back

death and shudders. She looks ahead at
Life Of happiness with her children, her hus-
band and her home with JOY that only
mother can realize.
Mrs. Lord is the mother Of three children,
two Of whom are twins; until the twins
came nothing narred the JOY Of her life.
Then she was attacked with heart failure
and for year was unable to attend to the
ordinary duties Of the home. In describing
her own experience Mrs. Lord says:

Endeavor meeting ever held here. Five

the most largely attended and most in

the usual business, election OF A. D. Ma
son, c. A. Choate and Ed. Fulford as
selectmen, H. A. Gilhlan as road COM
missioner, Walter B. Harvey as school
director, and filling the other Offices, the
bidding for taxes was made exciting by
the fact that Curt Harvey bid off the col
lection of taxes tor Geo. F. Winch and
that the town was so nearly divided as
to whether they would accept Geo. Winch
as substitute for Curt Harvey or not.
Geo. Winch was finally accepted as col
lector of taxes and was made constable.
Chas. Choate showed the reason
why the town expense appeared to be so
large to be because Of so many law suits
and because quite number of bills had
been paid which had been running Tor
years. Because of the Indebtedness and
that about $1400 must be paid on the
proposed cut under the railroad at

that the woman would go halves.
