The New York Tribune Farmer.

The Tribune Farmer has no superior
anywhere in this wide world as a publi-
cation for farmers and their families. 1t
does not. to be sure, tell how to extract
green cheese from the moon. but every
thing worth knowing about the theory
or practice of farming is treated by men
recognized as experts in their various
lines. But The Tribune Farmer does
more than supply such information.
It keeps the farmer in touch with all the
latest improvements by text and pictures
and pays special attention to the work be-
ing done at agricultural colleges all over
the country. Besides all this it has fea-
lures to interest the women folk. The
price is 81 a year. For a free sample
copy send a postal card to The New York
Tribune, New York.

PLY as one family. His father died i'm
November 1899. Besides his wife, who
has devotedly cared for him through all
his long illness, he is survived by his
mother, and two sons, Harry E., who is
employed as drug clerk in Plymouth,
this state, and Frank w, of this town,
and two young daughters, Alice l.. and
Marion H.: also one brother. Edwin ID.
Jeffords of Chicopee Falls, Mass.
Mr.. Jeffords received his education in
the public schools of Hinsdale and I'm
Powers institute, Bernardston, Mass.
He began work when young for the
Hunter company of Hinsdale, at that time
well known publishers For the past 16
years he has been employed by the Senti-
mel Printing company OF Keene, reporting
for Hinsdale and several other towns,
and going up and down the county as
collector. Notwithstanding his busy life
on the Sentinel staff he found time to be
successful book agent, and his persua-
sive tongue was able to overcome previous
convictions and sell books when least ex-
pected. This may be said of him, he did
not canvass for worthless books, but al
ways those OF value. He has served the
town as constable and supervisor of the
check list, and in 1S97-1S9S represented
the town in the state legislature He was
active in politics, a firm Republican and
always able to give a reason for the faith
that was in him. Since becoming of
age he had never missed being present at
the caucuses until last fall, and 1t was
great grief to him that sickness kept him
at home. There are many friends
throughout the county and vicinity to
whom the news of Mr.. Jeffords's death
will bring a sense of personal loss and
sorrow, and for the family where the blow
falls heaviest much sympathy is felt. Mr.
Jeffords was fraternally united with the
local lodge of Free Masons Eastern Star
Pilgrim Fathers and Grange.
Funeral services will be held at the
house Sunday afternoon at o'clock. Rev
w, F. White of the Congregational church
will oficiate. The burial will be in the
family lot in Pine Grove cemetery.

Obituary..

Miss Jessie Order, beloved daugh.
ter OF S. E. Order, OF West Point
township, departed this life Satur.
day, April 30, 1904 She was born
and reared in this community and
was nearing her Oath birthday.
Jessie leaves her aged parents,
three brothers and four sisters to
mourn their loss.
The funeral was held Sunday, May
LIST, at the Mt. Vernon Baptist church.
Rev. Silvius ofiiciated, assisted by
Rev. A. H. Lewis. In the presence Of
a large grief stricken audience, her
body was laid to rest in the church
cemetery besides three sisters, who
had preceded her to that better
world.
Jessie protested faith in Jesus Dec.
20, 1901, and united with the Mt.
Vernon Baptist church OF which she
lived consistent faithful member.
Her life tho brief if we measure it by
a span OF days and years, was filed
with faithful work for her Master.
She was a much talented and a very
successful teacher-iust in her prime
with a life full OF bright hopes for the
future. A devoted sister and daugh.
ter and a sincere humble christian is
gone, but earth is better for her liy-
ing in it, and heaven is brighter for
her entrance therein. The B. Y.P.U.
aud Sunday school will especially
miss her, but we must bow in humble
submission to the will of our heaven.
ly Father, "who doeth all things
we'll"
Our fullest sympathy is extended
to the grief stricken family, church
and Borrowing friends.
Now may the sweet incense of
Jessie's life and character continue
with her loved ones, until they too
shall enter that celestial city.

Do the right thing at the right time.

Cure all distressing, dangerous kid

Plenty of evidence to prove this.

street, Cheyenne, corner Of Maxwell,
says: 81 took all kinds of medi-
cine supposed to be valuable for kid
ney complaint but l never obtained
any noticeable benefit. A druggist in
Cheyenne can tell you that l was doc
toring all the time for three years and
that during that period l was unable to
even lessen let alone stop the aching
across the loins. My first acquaint-
ance with Doan's Kidney Pills was OBJ
tanned through the Denver Post and
induced me to go to a drug store for
a box. 1t only required a few doses
to convince me that they were acting
directly on the kidneys and a contin-
uation of the treatment until had u.s.
ed several boxes absolutely stopped
that particular attack. l still take a
dose or two once in a while for l know
that the preparation acts as a genu-
inc tonic particularly to the Kidneys"
