Death of John ]. Wagonseller.

John J, Wagonseller died OF Brlght's
disease at his home on East Main
street, this town, Friday evening after
an illness of several months. He
was taken with the malady in the
carly part of November and though
the nature of the attack was in ma.
hgnant form, his wife, immediate rela-
tives apd friends were hopeful tor
recovery. The disease in fact did
yield to medical treatment and to
such an extent that he was permitted
to resume his position on the road as
travelling salesman. He was again
compelled to take his bed about two
weeks ago ami for four days he lin
sered between life and death, the end
apparently, being imminent at any
moment. Much to the qualification
of those about him he rallied, but
alas, only temporarily and as the mid
night hour approached he sank to the
sleep that knows no waking and his
spirit took its flight to the unknown.
Mr.. Wagonseller, since early life,
has been a faithful member of the
Methodist Episcopal church. He
leaves a wife, three sisters and one
brother. Two Of his sisters, Mrs.
Gearhart and Mrs. L. T. Sharpless,
reside here.
Funeral services were conducted at
his late home Sunday afternoon by
Rev. w. M. Frysinger. The remains
were taken to his former home in
Selinsproye on Monday for burial.

SUCCOTH CARPENTER HAS
WORK ONLY ONE WEEK
He is Employed in Ghetto by Jews
Durinu Feast of Tabernacle.

The oldest industry in the metropolis
IS that of succoth carpenter, who
finds employment one week of the year
in the Ghetto among the orthodox
Jews. His Jrk is done in the fort
night which precedes the feast of tab
eernacles and consists in building odd
solitle booths known as succoths in the
back yards of the tenement houses.
The feast of the tabernacles is suppos-
ed to commemorate the time during
which the children of Israel wandered
IN the wilderness, ana probably also
their Sojourn in the land of Egypt
During this period they lived more or
less in the open, when racr IS symbol
lied by the booth having no roof or
else a covering of eVeTgTeens and bull
rusheS. According to another school
the booths represent the time when
the ISraeliteS came in such numbers
that they were unable to get into the
temple AMI so built temporary shelters
around the sacred edifIce.
The succoth should be boxlike in
shape, not less than six feet in height,
six feet long and four feet wide. 1t
should be made of the cheapest and
fiimsiest building material to indicate
what it represents. Some of the build

THE OLD, OLD WAY.

The first one loved her dearly
And sent her flowers galore;
He called so often that they learned
His footsteps at the door
He spent long evenings with her,
And read from all the books,
And tried in every way to let
His heart show in his looks.
He showed her every kindness.
AND planned some joy each day
And tried to smooth out every i'll
That sprang up in her way
Ills only wish was for her good,
His one thought but to please;
His every effort all day long
To give her greater ease.
She said although she liked him
Knew he was good and kind.
To be his wife she could not
Determine in her mind.
And so she'd say good-by to him,
But bade him not forget
She knew a splendid husband
He'd make for some maid yet
The next one very seldom
Took pains to make a call,
And had the air of wishing
He had not come at ALL
He gazed upon her coldly,
With hateur in his eyes,
AS if her mere existence
Was cause Of deep surprise.
lie never gave a single thing,
He never read a line;
He never paid a compliment
Nor took her out to dine.
He never said a single word
Nor called a loving name;
Nor said if she refused him
Life wouldn't be the same.
But she said there existed
feeling true and strong;
And she knew it was deep enough
To last their whole life long.
And she had found within his heart,
The first time in her life.
Enough to really make her
Desire to be his wife.
