I'VE bend today DER a coflned form,
And our tears fall softly down;
We look our last on the aged face
With its look of peace, its patient grace,
And hair smoothed softly down.
We touch our own to the clay cold hands,
From life's long labor freed
And among the blossoms white and sweet
We note branch of golden wheat
A token from some dear friend:
We know not what work her hands had
found
What rugged places her feet;
What cross was hers, what blackness OF night
We see but the peace, the blossoms white,
And the bunch of ripened wheat
The blossoms whisper of fadeless bloom,
of a land where falls no tears,
The ripe wheat tells Of toll and care,
The patient waiting, the trusting prayer,
The garnered good of the years"

ceased had been in a feeble condition
for some years and for the past eight
months had been confined to her room
She was woman who was happiest
when working for others and when age

trial to her. Her most earnest wish for
years had been that the Lord would see
fit to take her home.
Mrs. Manley, whose maiden name
was Susan Scott, was born in Cater
angus Co., New York, Oct. 10, 1920, and
was married to Riley Manley, April II,

LET THEM BATTLE.

The Stevens Point Journal hits the
nail on the head when it gives the
following bit of advice to those of
this city, who have had their modesty
shocked at boys going in bathing with
in the city limits THE business men
of Wausau had better lay IN stock of
suitable bathing suits, call off the police
and let the boys battle. The boys will
buy the suits all right and no ones
modesty need be severly shocked. The
herd of the unwashed is mighty and
bathing should be encouraged"

SILVER QUESTION
 IS TO BE STUDIED
MEXICO TAKES INTEREST IN Ac- TON OF AMERICAN GOVERN MENT SHOWING WILLINGNESS TO ASSIST IN THE PROBLEM.

Mexico City, February S.-There Is great interest taken here in the action of the American government in behalf of silver, and President Roosevelt's ready willing ness to aid in the solution of a problem of such vital importance to this coun- try is creating an excellent feeling The attitude of the American government IS considered most friendly.
 The monetary commission to study the silver question here Is a local measure which attracts favorable attention and for not many years has so important a body of banking. industrial and commer- eial experts been convoked, and 1t is be- lieved to be a guarantee Of much good in bringing about better popular under standing here of the underlying difficult ties attending the settlement of this com plicated matter The government has won praise by it's judicious action, for now it is seen that it proposes to act only on assistance from the most representa- tive men.
 One of the questions of greatest pres ent interest and one which the commis- sion will investigate Is the present quan- tity of silver money in the country. Not withstanding many banks have come in- to existence, it is pointed out by Finance Minister Limantour that 1t Is still the custom in many parts of the country among merchants and wealthy private presons to keep large amounts of coined 1 silver in private safes. An effort will be made to ascertain scientifically the amount of currency, both metallic and paper. which the country requires for its 1 business.
