MRS FLORENCE c. KOSHER.

MRS FLORENCE c. KOSHER.
 Mrs Florence c. Moshier, aged Al years, widow of Earl P. Moshier, fell asleep in Jesus, Thursday morning, January 29. For the past year her health had been failing her, and a com plication of diseases which only lasted Il days was the cause of her death. She bore her sufferingS with marked fortitude so commonly displayed by a pure Christian person. Her life was SpOtleSS, a most lOvable disposition, and home she was bright star, wise cOun- sellor, and the loved ones she cared for so tenderly can say, in the true sense of the word, "What is home without a mother?" Her great faith in her Mas ter was one of the prominent features of her life, never doubting his teach ings, but living up to them as far as circumstances would permit. Her un- tiring efforts at the chapel can never be forgotten by those she so willingly labored with, always willing, always ready, to assist the Christian Endeav- orerS in their undertakings. They mourn her as a conscientious worker and companion, and in loving remem- brance to her they gave bouquet of white roses which she so much loved A Ul1lCC Ab dSSu LhioOii- CT, and several sisters are left to mourn her departure. The funeral was held at her home in North Kent, Saturday morning and the remains were taken to Gaylordsville for burial.
 Mid life's commotion. dismal fears
 Mid cares and woes, and floods of tears,
 How sweetly breaks upon the ear,
 Some word of comfort or of cheer.
 Yet of our friends there's not another.
 Who speaks as gently as our mother"

The following, clipped from the Lo. we'll Courier, is of local interest, as the president referred to is Frederick
 Marble, once numbered among New
 town boys:-"The snow is deep enough to furnish a good many 'thank-ye- ma ams' in the streets, especially at the crossings. Also to make it diff cult to turn around with a sleigh. The other night one of Sparks drivers,
 who had just unloaded a passenger, at tempted to turn his booby hack around, when it tipped squarely over on it's side. Luckily the horses didn't run, but the passenger and driver were not equal to tipping the hack back again. So gentleman who happened along, and who proved to be President Marble of the Lowell Humane society, put his shoulder to the runner, and in twinkling the hack was lighted, with no harm done. The driver announced that the accident was the fault of the horses, and that when be got on board
 he would take it out of them.' 'No
 you won't said the Humane president: promise not to whip the horses, or IT. tip your hack over again. The young man promised. I wonder if he kept the promise all the way to the stable. ,

The records were we'll kept and complete, very interesting and instructive. Music was furnished by the Beeman & Hatch orchestra of Hartford. The historical address, de- livered by Wesley U. Pearne, past master of St John s lodge, No. Z, was a complete history of the lodge, requir- ing great amount of research and study. The banquet that followed began at 8, in which 266 brethren sat down to partake of the bounties SUD- piled by the Auxiliary of the Young Mems Christian Association. The menu was complete. Toasts were proposed and responded to in a very eloquent manner. The banquet closed by all singing Auld Lang Syne.

At Connells- vile in Pennsylvania fast express ran into some timbers dropped on the track from freight train and 65 were killed and many injured. At Grand Rapids, Mich., there was collision because the blizzard put out red light, and they dug P people out of the wreck who were dead, and 30 others who were injured, some of them fatal ly. The statistics show that we are killing about IA people day on the average, and about 45,000 people are injured, the great majority of whom are the railroad employees. It will be time before long to indict some of the railroad managers for murder because of their negligence. There are prac- tically no collisions in England on the railroads and very few people are killed by the cars. They have perfect block system, which the government should compel American railroads to adopt.

We heard man say the other morn- that the abbreviation for February Feb-means freeze everybody, and that man looked frozen in his ulster. It was apparent that he needed the kind of warmth that stays, the warmth that reaches from head to foot, all over the body. We could have told him from personal knowledge that Hoods Sarsaparilla gives permanent warmth: it invigorates the blood and speeds it along through artery and vein, and really fits men, women, boys and girls to enjoy cold weather and resist the attacks of disease. It gives the right kind of warmth, stimulates and strengthens at the same time and all it's benefits are lasting. There may be suggestion in this for you.
