Death of Mrs, Abel Worster.

The death of Mrs. Abel Worster, Feb.
4, has bereaved a denoted family and
saddened many friends. The funeral
took place Saturday at the home and
the remains were laid to rest in the lr-
vington cemetery. The services were
in charge of Rev. Chipperfield. Har-
ret Beal was born in 1925 in Chester
field. In lS45 she was married to Abel
Worster, the young couple making their
home near Swanzey for 16 years. Here
six of their seven children were horn
and here the eldest, boy, died at the
age of two years. In 1861 the family
moved to Jones county, Iowa, where
they lived four years The youngest
son was born there. In the fall of 1865
another and last change of home was
made. They came by wagon to Kos
suth county and bought the farm where
they have since remained. The county
was new and of the fortitude and ca
pability with which this frail and del
icate woman braved the hardships of
making home in this bleak and lone
some land we cannot say TOO much.
Her life gave continuous evidence of
wifely devotion. AS mother she found
no personal sacrifice too great when her
childrens happiness or welfare was
concerned. OF the children are left
Carrie, Edward, Charles, Lydia and
Merton, the eldest, Carrie, being Mrs.
Anthony Durant. The many who knew
Mrs. Worster and loved her are ready
with one accord to speak of the gentle
goodness and beauty of her character.
Her charity was so unbounded that an
unkind word was never uttered. Her
acts were all those of loving ministra-
tions for others. In rare degree she
possessed the power to find happiness
in everything. Her departure from this
life was not unlocked for. Her health
always poor, was failing for year or
more. She was ready when the sum-
mons came her children were near her.
And let us not say she died, let us
rather say that her spirit rose to a
larger and better world where pain and
sorrow find no entrance.

What are we set on earth for? Say to toll;
Nor seek to leave thy tending of the vines
For all the heat o. the day. till it declines
And deaths mild curfew shall from work as
soil.
God did anoint thee with his odorous oil
To wrestle. not to reign; and he assigns
All thy tears over like pure crystallines,
For Younger fellow workers of the soil
To wear for amulets. So Others shall
Take patience labor to their heart and hand.
From thy hand and thy heart and thy brave
cheer
And Gods grace fructify through thee to all.
The least flower with brimming cup, may
stand
And share ITS dewdrop with another near,

WRITTEN FOR THE SUNDAY REPUBLIC.
OF the making and selling and buying
OF books there is no end.
And yet, after books have been made
and sold and bought a question may be
asked. one that is not easy to answer.
1t il, What becomes of these many
books? Are they preserved in public and
private libraries, at the book stores or in
the warehouses of publishers?
The true story of the book trade would
answer these questions in a way surpris-
ing to the public.
Old books. like old coins. may have a
certain value If rightly placed. but can
the same be said of the popular novel of
yesterday or the day before that?
Who cares nowadays for Robert Els
mere" except to know, as a matter Of
history, that the story once created a
furore?
To mention Rider Haggard's She" Is to
provoke smile. In this year of 1903 read
en- are forgetting that there WAS such .
book as when knighthcod Was In Flow
er." What becomes of these lost favor
ites depooed sovereigns Of a brief pop
ulafity?
The publisher auctions on his uncalled-
for wares In the big cities. and the dealer
In secondhand books may or may not
make q profitable Investment.
The book dealer may store these books
In his basement for time and later have
them carted away to a paper factory to
make room for others which will know .
like fate.
The manufacturers of paper might be
able to add a chapter to the story of lost
books. for he makes old books and papers
into some form Of paper. or papier machs,
and this rejuvented product begins an
other career. However. the story OF books
a. books. not as waste paper. is Interest,"
ing.
To know the life story Of a book OF his
tory. or travel, or adventure would b
worth while. for such a history might b
more absorbing than that told in its pages.
Tho dealer In secondhand books Is an
important parsonage. He knows or should
