The Deadly Cigar.

The sudden death of William
M. Singerly, editor Of the Phil
adelphia Record, adds another to
the countless victims Of the dead
ly cigar. DR.. Bernardy, who
was Mr.. Singerly's family phys
ician visited him the day before
his death and found him then in
fairly good condition, with no
weakness or pain, expecting to
go down to his Office the next day.
But the end came suddenly,
and without a word the strong
man fell back dead. The ex-
planation of the sudden death
which will apply to thousands Of
similar cases, is given by Dr..
Bernardy as follows: "Mr.
Singerly was an inveterate smok
er, and for years had suffered
from what was know as a 'tobac-
co heart I forewarned his
family that some day he would
die suddenly in just the way he
has. He knew that his heart was
weak, but always laughed at the
thought of danger. The end has
come, however, in just the man
ner / had predicted and ex-
pected. The Christian.

Farmers Institute.

While the attendance at the
farmers institute held at the
court house last Wednesday was
not so largely attended as it
should have been, a very inter
esting session was held, and a
profitable discussion of two of
the subjects on the program was
had. The interest manifested
on this occasion by those present
and the manner in which the
subjects were discussed and diff
ferent points brought out indi
Gated something of the advan
tages to be derived from these
meetings, and how inte esting
and profitable they can be made
if general attendance is secur-
ed.
The president, Mr.. Partridge,
stated that owing to his illness
last winter the regular meeting
was not held. but that it rested
with the farmers themselves
whether they would keep up the
institute. After the constitution
and by laws had been read by
the secretary, Mr.. Bailey, they
were adopted as printed in
another column.
The first paper under dis
cussion was one by Mr.. G. H.
Hevener on the "baby separa-
tor, or the advantage of using
the separator at home. The
paper is printed in another col
umn. It was quite thoroughly
discussed, and was ably sup
plemented by the experience o.
Fred Krueger, who had used ;

cream to the creamery, and hat
found it a most profitable ma
J chine. The great benefit bein.

! 1898, of inflammation Of the brain. Ira w. Alb

Death is nearly always an unwel-
come visitor. and in the above case it
has its peculiarly distressing features.
A bright young fellow. just touching
the years Of early manhood, blessed
with physical vigor and the joyous
enthusiasm of young life and with a
character forming on the better lines:
the hope and pride of his parents.
whose staff and comfort in their de-
clining years he gave every promise
of being Such was Ira Abbott. the
young man who was last Sunday
taken from earthly life. He was
seemingly we'll and hearty on Thurs.
day, attending school during the day
and in the evening was with young
friends at the church entertainment.
In the early morning he woke up and
complained of an ear-ache or pain in
the head. Remedies were applied
and physician was summoned, and
it was believed he was improving un-
til Saturday evening when his case
became serious and council Of ply
sicians was held. Every effort was
made to relieve him but it was with
out avail, and shortly after nine
O clock Sunday morning he expired.
The funeral occurred last Tuesday
afternoon at the M. L. church. OF
which society the young man was
member. being also connected with
the Sunday school and Epworth
League. He was an attendant of the
high school. and his associate pupils,
in company of the teachers attended

pail bearers being composed OF six
of his class mates; the choir furnish.

also composed entirely of these young
friends and associates. Rev. =. VIII

A Daughter Of the Revolution.

Zumbro Falls (Minn. lndepend-
ent.-The Bulletin, Norwich,
Connecticut, publishes an rIcle
stating that Mrs. Eliza Bailey,
mother of Mrs. Robert Disney of
this vicinity, is soon to be recog-
nized as one of the daughtersof
the Revolution. 1t reads as fol
lows. Sarah Riggs Humphreys
Chapter, d. A. r. of Derby, is
to realize one of the ambitions of
every chapter in the organization
and that is to enroll one real
daughter of the revolution, that is
amen Der whose father was in the
revolutionary war and aided the
cause of American independence.
The lady is Mrs. Eliza Bailey of
Milbank, South Dakota.
Mrs. Bailey is approaching 81
years Of age, having been born
on February 4, 1915. She is the
daughter of HezelSiah Wheeler,
who enlisted in the Continental
army from Stafford Springs,
Tolland Co, Her application for
membership was presented at
the last meeting Of the Chapter.
With it was that Of her grand
daughter who resides in Shelton.
Although living in the West,
Mrs. Baily wishes to join the
daughters in the state from
which her father enlisted and she
selected the Derby chapter be
cause it is the one with which her
granddaughter is going to as
sociate herself. Hezekiah Wheel

Revolutionary war when but
fifteen years of age, but did not
go into the army until he became
sixteen. He then served SIX
years until the close of the fl ght

The Baby Separator.

Paper read before Farmers Institute. Dec. IA.
There are advantages and dis
advantages in getting and using
a baby separator. First | will
say | have run separator three
years, and while we don think
we know all about them, we
think we have learned something
about them, and will name first
some of the disadvantages, be-
ginning with the first cost as
that comes first. Now that seems
to be sumner and really seems
to be more than all the butter
will bring in one year, but you
must stop and carefully consider
the length Of time they will last
80 years, running twice a day,
365 days every year, and that
every time you put milk through
it, it is making money for you.
OF course the amount it will save
depends on your methods previ-
Gus to using the separator. That
you may each know how much
the separator will save you, |
will give the following: ''The
increase over setting in pans is
30 per cent; over setting in cans
in cold water, 20 per cent; in
setting in improved creameries
with ice, 10 per cent; the price
of butter is raised from 2 to cts.
per lb.; the feeding quality OF the
skim milk is worth twice as
much as milk set in pans or cans,
or taken to creameries. After
you once have separator Gf you
like dairying), you will ind it
SO much ahead Of the old way,
you will soon forget the first
cost. The next greatest objec-
tion is running the separator;
men will buy harves ters
mowers, drills, plows and all
kinds of machinery and expect
to run them with some kind Of
power, but when it comes to .
separator they think it ought
to run itself. Or they must
think it runs agreat deal harder
J than it does. The capacity is
} given Of each machine SO yol
J may know how fast they vii
t separate, and as to power re
: quired to run them, | will say
/ never yet have had one person
that had word to say agains
!, the power it took to run them
where | have sold or had then
t on trial. In regard to time i
) takes to separate, will say tha
: with the Cumming Bee on al
average it takes about 4 minute.
: per COW. In regard to washing
) it takes about minutes to Wasl
: ours. Now will it pay patrons o
) the creamery to havea separator
: and separate their milk at home
and take the cream to the cream
, cry? | will give you my way 0
