A story is being told of country
doctor who was going his rounds one
morning with gun on his shoulder.
He was a keen.sportsman, and was
looking forward to polishing off little
game when his professional duties
were over. A friend meeting him, and
seeing him with the gun, exclaimed
'Where are you going, doctor, Sc
early in the day, with that deadly
weapon on your shoulder" 'T'n
hurrying off to see a patient" he re-
piled. "Well," said his friend, 81 see
you are determined not to miss him."

much interest in science, and are you
in the habit of discussing the beautiful

great moral problems that are claiming
the attention of so many of our learned
women nowadays?" 'tNo. I'm ashamed

LIVED OVER A CENTURY.
DEATH OF r1RS. SARAH TAY,
OLDEST RESIDENT OF JACK
SON COUNTY.
She Drank Tea Always, and Only
Ceased to Smoke Pipe Two
Years Ago.

Mrs. Sarah Ann Tay, the Oldest resi-
of the entire State of Ohio, died yester-
day morning at her late home near
Berlin, few miles north of Jackson, o.
She was almost 104 years old and was
famous all over Southern Ohio for her
remarkable career. For a number of
years she has made her home with her
daughter, Mrs. Charles COnger, and
it was at her home that she died. Mrs.
Tay was born in Armstrong county,
Pennsylvania, March 9, 1876. Her
father was an Irishman. Mrs. Tay
silk thread and spun enough cloth from
it to make her own wedding dress.
| The old dress is still shown by her
children. Mrs. Tay smoked a pipe
from childhood, and only two years ago,
at the extreme age of 102 years, did she
quit the habit. A few months later
she went blind, but recovered partial
sight in a short time. She always
drank tea, and attributed her longevity
to that and sedentary habits. For
twenty-five years she had been lame
and was forced to use crutch. When
she was young girl Mrs. Tay weighed
over 200 pounds, but she wasted away,
until at death she weighed only ninety
two pounds. She was in full possession
of her mental powers and ate heartily at
every meal. She never had the advan.
tage of an education, and it was after
she was 60 years of age that she learned
to read and write. But she made
such use of her newly acquired powers
that the leaves of her Bible are almost
worn out by the constant lingering she
gave them.
