Spokane authorities that he had de-
serted her. After several days inquiry
by the authorities the man was To-
Gated in WaIa Walla. He denied that
he had deserted his WIFE, and claimed
| that she was so insanely jealous that
when he came to Walla Walla in quest
of work she ina gined that he had de-
serted her The woman finally joined
to Grants Pass, Or, subsequently going
to Oakland, Cal.
The San Francisco story as told a
| few days ago is as follows:
Mrs. May Lee asked Chief of Pc
| lice Hodg!tins Of Oakland today to as
sist her il locating her husband. Her
! bert Lee. Who. she Says left her al
most pcnniIeGs yesterday morning and
vanished. Mrs. Lee feels certain that
! her husband has deliberately abandon
! cd her in q strange city and she was
heartbroken. as she told of his deser-
| ton.
Yesterday morning Lee arose, and
| telling his Wife that he was going out
| to breakfast, left and did not return.
Mrs. Lee waited all day, and when her
husband did not return at night she
decided that he had deserted her.
Mrs Lee is left in a pitiable condi-
| ton She has no money ana nc
| this part of California. She said today
| that she and her husband had always
| lived happily since their marriage III
| Oklahoma eight years ago, and she can
give no reason for his disappearance
She will have to depend on charity UNI
| til her friends can reach her.

Nature

Every one knows that Royal Baking
Powder is absolutely pure. Hence the
housewife uses it with implicit confidence
and without question, and she is justified
in so doing.
But how few realize that Royal Baking
Powder in its chief ingredient is direct prod
uct Of the healthful and delicious grape! This
constituent Of the grape, crystalized and ground
to an impaI pable powder, is the cream Of tar
tar which forms the active principle of every
pound Of Royal Baking Powder.
Fruit properties are indispensable to the
heathfuIness Of the body, and those of the
grape as used in the Royal" are the most
Valuable and heathful of all.
Hence it is that Royal Baking Powder
produces food superlative both in flavor
and wholesomeness.

OBITUARY..

Hardly if ever was Weybridge so stk-
when it was said that Bertha, wife of
John Shaw, had very suddenly passed
into the great beyond. She had been in
usual health until the day previous and
no fear of any serious ending to
what was thought to be slight indis-
position were entertained until a few
hours previous to her going away. Mrs.
Shaw came to be one in our midst upon
their marriage nearly ten years ago.
Many regrets mingled with good wishes
came with her from her home in Ben
nington and the hearty greeting given her
by our people was never repented of.
She took her place in society. Well did
she sustain herself. She united by letter
with the NJ. f church here and gave her
best efforts to sustain and make success
full all good undertakings made by her
sisters in Christ. They resided for a
time at their home in our village but up
on the death of Mrs. Emily Bowdish, she
was called to take charge and direct
matters at the Drake homestead. Well
has she met the dllncultleS ana lrlalS
which have come to her in this field
making her aptness and ability felt and
leading to success.
She will be so much missed by the
inmates of the home. In her own family
she was the loved and honored wife and
mother. Making it all that makes a
home desirable. Lonely indeed will the
home be to the husband and the only
little one for days and years to come.
The last sad services of respect were
held at her home on Saturday following
her death where large concourse OF
friends and relatives came together tC
mingle their tears with those ths
mourned. Rev. W. Smith of the Con
gragational church spoke words of com.
fort. The burial was in the family LOT
in Maple Grove cemetery.
There were present from out of town
Mrs. Ruth Griswold, Earnest and Law
renee Griswold, mother and brothers OF
Mrs. Shaw, Mr. and Mrs. George Coates
Mr. and Mrs James Davis, Mrs. NJ. Bar
nard of New Haven, and others. -

OBITUARY..

A wave of sadness and gloom settled
over our little hamlet when early Satur-
day morning word was received of the
death of one of Bridport's finest young
ladies, Bertha Allen, a young lady of
promise, upon whom her parents were
leaning more each day. At one blow
all has been swept away, leaving hearts
filled with grief. While we fail to see
with our mortal sight the wisdom and
justice of this terrible affiiction, yet we
must bow before it. To us all, the death
of this young friend is hard.
The gates OF life swung either way,
On noiseless hinges, night and day.
One enters through the open door,
One leaves us to return no more.
Which is happier? which more blest?
God knoweth best.
We greet with smiles the one who comes
Like sunshine to our hearts and homes;
And reach our longing hands with tears
To her who had been with us a few years,
Then went with loving faith to heavenly rest.
God knoweth best.
He guards the gate we need not fear,
The path those faithful feet must tread,
Nor fear for her who from our sight
Passed through them to the realms OF light
She in His loving care doth rest
God knoweth best.
