Obituary.,

On September 16, 1904, there came
into the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Chas.
e. Mullenix little daughter, Kathryn
Louise, who soon became the Joy and
idol of the household. The more
loved and petted perhaps, because she
had not long to stay in the home she
made 80 bright, for, on August 20,
1904, the messenger called and took
her. Then there was sadness and
tears and aching hearts-a vacant
crib--and all kissed the dimpled hands
and cheeks for the last time.
Kathryn was sweet loveable child,
loved and idolized by parents, brothers
and sisters whose sad hearts are al.
most broken.
But they sorrow not as those who
have no hope, for they know that she
is fafely housed In house cot made
by hands. They know her probation
10 ended, theirs continue that they
can never see hee more except they
90 live that they may obtain an en-.
trance through the golden gate int<
the eternal city of our God.

Hoylestown, Ausust.s2 1ee5.-By or
der Of the court the Bucks County Tpust
Company, trustee nader the mortgage,
sold TO r. D. Brown all the property and
franchises of the Standard Telephone &
Telegraph Comany The price paid was
$50 600. This company, which went into
the hands of q receiver a few months
ago, has been operating less than four
years. Due to Bell competition and in
adequate rates, the company has not been
able to meet its current operating ex-
&snses or to lay aside fund to offset the
usual depreciation of its plant

ume of business and extended toll and

operative plan.
A striking feature connected with the
sale is the speed with which telephone
plant depreciates. and emphasizes two
facts; first, that the public prefer and de-
mand comprehensive telephone system
reaching all points; and second. that in
any other business there are many ex-
penses. of which depreciation is one,
which telephone promoters either do not
see or fail to explain to investors
