obItuary OF Mrs. Washburn.

Mrs Deborah Foster Washburn was
the third daughter of William and Char
lotte (Hobart) Foster, and was born in
1924.
After completing the usual course OF
study in the schools OF the town, she WAS
married in 1913 TO Frederick Washburn,
son of Isaiah, and for many years lived ON
his farm.
Owing TO failure OF her husbands health
in 1876 they removed TO the village to re-
side. After his deeease in August,
1877, she sold the farm TO her
son-in-law, c. l.. Hodges, and built
house in the village, where she resided
several years.
Wishing to provide a home and en-
ployment for her two youngest sons, she
exchanged the house for the farm and has
since 1889 resided with her two widowed
sisters, Mrs. Odiorn and Mrs. Tarbox.
Her health had been failing for several
years, but until within few months she
kept busy with her usual household cares
and quite regularly was seen at church.
She had always been a very industrious
and active woman and was constantly
planning to do something for the comfort
and welfare of those around her, forgetfui
of self.
She was one of the oldest members OF
the First Congl church in this town, hav-
ing been received Aug. Z, 1912, with many
others who were hopefully converted dur
ing the evangelistic meetings conducted
by Rev. o. Parker,a converted lawyer from
New York city.
During these almost three-score years
she has lived, so far as the writer has
learned, as devoted, humble follower Of
the Master should live. And now that
she has been called to the better land, not
only her three sons and daughter, but
many others will rise up and call her
blessed.
She died at midnight May 18th and the
funeral services were conducted by Rev.
George Willis Patterson at three p. m.
Monday. Many relatives assembled at
her late residence, and friends and neigh
bors came in to show their respect for the
departed and their sympathy with the be-
reaved.
The portions of scripture read and the
remarks made, as well as the hymns sung,
were very appropriate.
Mrs Washburn will be greatly missed,
not only by her three sons and daughter,
Mrs. Hodges, and the grandchildren she
loved SO much, and by her sisters, but al
so by all who have been well acquainted
with her. 4 ID. ii. N.

Dear Sir: Lead and oil is no longer the
paint TO be prosperous with.
As everybody knows, lead and oil ehalks
or powders off in about three years-three
years is its limit.
Painters are putting a little zinc in their
lead to make it fought lasts good three
years with little zinc.
But painters don't like the job Of mixing
zinc. It's a tedious job, and, both being
white, nobody knows when the mixing is
thorough. II gets half-mixed; and the
paint goes on, a streak of lead and streak
OF zinc. That is not good work.
The mistake made is in trying TO do by
hand what is better done by machinery
Hand-work can't compete with machine
work.
