Best Way to Beat Carpet.

Perhaps the most thorough way to clean carpet, especially a brussels, is to lay it on a clean grass plot, face down, and beat it as it lies there. After being beaten thoroughly 1t can be dragged by the corners over the grass, which will brush off all adhering dust, and the carpet will be cleaned in the most approved manner. To beat car pet on line is but an imperfect way, and the work is not as well done un- less by the most patient beating.

A Footbridge Needed.

1t is conceded that the present
opportunities for getting into the
city park from town should be i'm
proved. 1t has been painfully ap-
parent on several occasions when
great crowds of people were gath
ering at the park that the conges-
ton at the wagon bridge over the
South Fork was troublesome and
crossing dangerous. We are OBJ
liged tot go long distance out of
the way to get into the park. A
footbridge, as contemplated by the
ladies of the improvement League,
relieves the congestion at the wagon
bridge and saves TO the traveller
distance of three blocks. The ladies
of the League have worked long
and hard to secure sufficient funds
to see this footbridge a realization.
They believe they are now about to
attain to contamination of their
labor. A plan has been drawn for
an adequate bridge, a combination
of iron and wood-a bridge that
will answer all possible demands.
When the council gives permission
for the building of the structure
bids for it's construction will be in
vited. What the cost will be has
not been determined. That is to
be estimated by bidders.

Married at River Falls.

DR.. Chas. w. Chubbuck of this
city and Miss Grace Wales of River
Falls were united in marriage on
Wednesday last at the brides home
in River Falls and upon their return
to this city will begin housekeeping
in the handsome new residence at
the corner of McIndoe and Main
streets, built during the past sum-
mer by Mr.. Chubbuck.
The groom is one of Wausau's
best known citizens, having lived
here since childhood. He is a
young man of sterling character
and a gentleman in the broadcast
application of the term, and enjoys
the esteem and confidence of our
citizens. By industry and perse-
verance he has made himself master
of one of the professions and for a
number of years past has been assoc
ciated in business with DR.. w. T,
Lawrence. That he has the we'll
wishes of his large circle of friends
in his venture into the state of
matrimony need hardly be said, nor
that he and his bride will receive a
cordial reception by our citizens.
Mrs. Chubbuck is by no means a
stranger to the people of this city,
having spent couple of years here
as a teacher in our public schools.
She is an educated and refined
young WON an, and one who is liber-
ally endowed with those graces of
womanhood that bespeak for her
not only warm friends but a happy
life for her and her husband. The
Central joins with the other citizens
of Wausau IN extending to the new
lv-wedded pair its sincere congratu-
lations and well-wiSheS for their
future happiness. The Central

F'ARNSWORTH.-A the home of her
son, Geo. w. Farnsworth, in this
city, Sunday, Oct. Is, 1908, Mrs.
Rosanna Love Farnsworth, aged
81 years, 2 months and 7 days.
The deceased, whose maiden
name was Rosanna Love Brown,
was born at Binghampton, N. Y,
Aug. 9, 1916. Her father was a
captain of militia in the war of
1872. In 1884 she was married to
Alvin c. Farnsworth and in 1889
the family located al Elysian, Mimi,
where they lived at the beginning
of the civil war and during the ex-
element occasioned by the revolt
of the Sioux Indians in Minnesota.
Mr.. Farnsworth, the husband and
father, served in the civil war to-
gether with four sons, two of which,
Marvin and Jerome, died in the SER
vice. The husband died in 1869
and was buried at Sparta. Since
the death of Mr.. Farnsworth Mrs.
Farnsworth had made her home
with her children in Minnesota or
her son here. For the last fifteen
months she had resided here with
her son, G.. w. Farnsworth. She
was a member of Lizzie M. Rice
circle, Ladies of the G. A. r., and
an honorary member of the Gettys-
burg circle, and always took much
interest in work pertaining to the
G. A. r. and w. R. C.
Seven children were born to Mr..
and Mrs. Farnsworth, three of whom
survive Horace T. Farnsworth and
Mrs. Julia E. F. Lobdell of Mime
apo1is and George w. Farnsworth
of this city.
The funeral was held from the
residence of her son Tuesday after
noon, Rev. E. E. Clough conduct
ing the service.
ScRoGGIE. AT the home of her par
ents in this city at 5 O'Clock Mon
day morning, Oct. 10, 1908, Miss
Hannah Scroggie, aged % years.
An attack CT measles some time
ago left disastrous consequences
and for some months she had been
falling in health. She kept up with
indomitable hope and patience until
two weeks ago when she was taken
to her bed.
The funeral was held from the
home yesterday afternoon, Rev. D..
B. Spencer in charge of the service.
The afflicted family have the sym
pathy of the community in this sore
bereavement.

Miss Marian Johnstone of Bea.
trice, Nebraska, now teaching
music in the Home for the Feeble
Minded at Faribault, Mimi, spent a
couple of days last week at the
home of Rev. DR.. Clough.
Evidently the Peoples Lecture
Course has lost none of it's popu-
larity, judging from the way the
course tickets have been taken up.
Though no canvas has been made,
tickets simply being placed on sale
at the drug stores, the sale has ex-
ceeded the expectations of the COM
mittee, and by to night, when the
sale closes, there will be few, if any
less tickets sold than were sold a
year ago before the opening of the
board for the first number.
The travelling public do not seem
to take kindly to the macadam road
where the rock is not covered with
gravel. Transfers skip it, driving
along one side or the other. Pro-
badly they think it will last longer
if they do not drive on it. Some
stretches of track where the rock
was strewn has been graveled and
such places make excellent roads.
1t is intended, we understand, to
cover all this rock-Strewn track with
gravel as opportunity offers. The
city has expended about all the
money on the streets this summer
that it had to appropriate for such
a purpose, and so much has been
done that commentator is due the
council.
John Simpson, who has moved
onto the Geo. w. Chinook farm
northwest of the city, lost horse
last Friday through the careless
act of some hunters. He had a
man blowing with 3-horse team
when some hunters discharged a
gun near by frightening the horses.
They ran away attached to the pillow,
one of the horses striking a tree
with such force as to break his neck.
This is not the first loss of an ami
NAL in that neighborhood by the
carlessness of hunters - Elbridge
Currier lost two animals shot by
hunters from the woods along these
mounds. Mr.. Simpson intimated
Saturday that he should post no.
tees forbidding hunting on his
premises.
While this city has the established
reputation of being an educational
center it is also widely known as a
community with talent and culture
for music. There is an exception
ally large proportion of the people
here who affect to court the muse of
song. It is a common remark by
strangers that the church choirs of
this place are as fine as are found
in the churches of the big cities.
There are few families here where
some member does not play must
cal instrument. The High school
chorus has shown ON sever al public
occasions how the young people can
sing and the concert recently given
by the choir of the M. E. church is
demonstration of the general con-
ception that there are many fine
musicians here. Nor is this pre-
vailing idea new one. The COM
munity has been distinguished for
good singers from the first settle
ment here. The Pratts, the Mich
discs, the Powells the Dodges, al
lied families, were distinguished
singers, and their influence and
teaching has had a marked effect
in promoting the love and culture
of music in the community,

On a Large Scale.

Every little while we run across
facts that serve to emphasize that
this is very large country in which
we live and that we do things fire.
quently on very large scale. One
of the recent things to cause our
thoughts to run along this channel
is the stupendous educational work
being carried on by the Interna-
tiona1 Correspondence Schools of
Scranton, Pa. Scranton is town
among the hills of Pennsylvania
and until a dozen years ago was
hardly known to the world at large.
To-day it is the synonym of pro-
gressiveness in matters educational.
Think of an army of more than
100000 seekers after knowledge
whose Alma Mater is this institu-
ton not yet in its teens. The
schools employ capital of over
$3,000,0 900 and have about $500 per-
sons on their payroll. Their mail
ing department handles about 49,
600 pieces of mail every day, ne
cessitating the use of more than
$500 worth of postage daily, and
last year they sent out something
like $4,000 pages of instruction.
Just at this time these schools
are making special effort by adj
vertising and through a window
display and by offering special dis
counts to have the people of River
Falls inquire into what they are
really doing and how they are doing
it. 1t goes without saying that
there are quite good many who
will be glad to avail themselves of
the opportunity thus presented them
to get an education along the line
of their work or in connection with
some subject that they are interest
ed in. The schools representative,
whose announcement and address
may be found in our display
columns, will be pleased to give
to interested persons any informa-
ton that may be desired.
