DEATH OF MRS H. B. OGDEN.

DEATH OF MRS H. B. OGDEN.
 Jennie, wife of Henry Burr Ogden, died at her home in the Banks South ing. Her condition has been precari- ous for several months and her death has been daily expected. She hung on to life, however, with remarkable tenacity, bravely holding her own un- til the final surrender. Mrs Ogden'S health has been extremely delicate for more than year. About four months ago she became seriously ill and a con- sultation of physicians was held. They diagnosed the disease as cancer of the liver, a malady which medical men recognize as incurable. Since that time no pains have been spared to make her last days on earth comfort. able. Trained nursing, loving care and almost constant watching, com bined with medical ingenuity, have been brought into play, the patient re- spending heroically to the treatment. At times she would brighten up and be sufficiently strong to sit up for hours, only to suffer relapse and sink dangerously near deaths door. AL though her passing from this life casts shadow of gloom over the neighbor- hood, yet all of her friends are con- forted to know that her sufferings are now over, that the peace for which she has perhaps long yearned has indeed come. The deceased was a woman of rare intelligence and fine womanly instincts. loyal wife, a de- voted mother, a kind, sympathizing friend and neighbor and when in per feet health, a delightful companion. Retiring in disposition she mingled lit tie with the outside world, her whole energies being directed towards the proper adjustment of her pleasant home surroundings. Blessed with every thing that could make one happy except that priceless blessing, health she had much, it would seem, to at tract her to this life, and this fact alone makes her unfortunate illness and death seem all the more sad. From every quarter of the community there comes naught but heartfelt sympathy for the SOrrowing friends who are Jeff behind. A husband and one daughter Beatrice, wife of Henry L. Burr, sur vive her.

What IL nm Abrashf 7

This question Is answered In a most
interesting manner by George Leland
Hunter In an article entitled "Thc
Truth about 'Doctored' Rugs" In Coun-
try Life In America. He writes;
"Abrash Is a most interesting word.
In Persia II father. son and grand
son have Roman noses, then Roman
nose Is the abrash of that family. II
gluttony In characteristic OF genera
tlon after generation, then Is gluttony
the hereditary abrash. II II Is a
strawberry mark on the left shoulder.
then the strawberry mark Is an abrash.
The abrashes Of n rug are the stripes
or bands that run parallel or entirely
across the pile. When seen for the
first time by Americans accustomed to
admire and insist on the deathlike uni.
formlty that characterizes machine
products nbrashes are apt to impress
them as defects. particularly II wide.
II takes experience and acquaintance
with the art Industries to grasp COM
pletely the significance and artistic
value Of individuality"

There is a record, dated S52, of the
receipt Of twelve carloads of fossil
coal at the abbey of Peterborough, ant
this was assuredly not the first case Of
production and delivery.
The deeds Of the bishoprlc Of Dur
ham contain records of grants Of lant
to colliers as far back as 11S0 In va
rious parts Of the county. In the year
1889 charter was granted by Henry
III. to the freemen Of Newcastle-on
Tyne to dig coal in the fields belong
ing to the castle, and 1t was in or about
this year that coal was first sent tC
London. Very early in the fourteenth
century evidence abounds Of large
consumption Of coal by smiths, brewers
and others. Already the smoke nui
sance appeared, and commission Of
EdwardI. !. leyied- fines to prevent it.

Miss KteMsDOnoEd,

More than likely you speak the same
words yourself, and no doubt you feel
far from well. The cause may be easily
traced to some arrangement Of the fe-
male organs which manifests itself In
depression of spirits, reluctance to go
anywhere or do anything, backache,
bearing-down pains, flatulency, nerv.
BUSINESS, sleeplessness, or other fe4
male weakness.
These symptoms are but warnings
that there is danger ahead, and unless
needed O life of suffering or serious
operation Is the inevitable result.
The falling remedy for all these
symptoms Is Lydia e. Pinkham's Veg
etable Compound.
Miss Kate Mcdonald of Woodbridge,
N. j., writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:
Restored health has meant 10 much to me
that cannot help from telling about II for
the sake OF other suffering women.
"For long time suffered untold agony
with a female trouble and Irregularities,
which made me o physical wreck, and no one
thought would recover, but Lydia 4. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound has entirely
cured me, and made me well and strcng, and
feel ii my duty to bell other suffering women
what splendid medicine 1t Is"
For twenty-five years Mrs. Pinkham,
daughter-in-law OF Lydia II. Pinkham,
has under her direction, and since her
decease, been advising sick women free
Of charge. Her advice is free and
always helpful. Address, Lynn, Mass

Wounds, Bruises and Burns.

By applying an antiseptic dressing
to wounds, bruises, burns and like in
uries before inflammation sets in,
they may be healed without matura-
tion and in about one-third the time
required by the old treatment. This
is the greatest discovery and triumph
of modern surgery. Chamberlain's Pain
Balm acts en- this same principle. 1t
is an anti-septic and when applied to
such injuries, causes them to heal very
quickly. 1t also allays the pain and
soreness. and prevents any danger Of
blood poisoning. Keep a bottle Of Pain
Balm in your home and it will save
you time and money, not to mention
the inconvenience and suffering such
injuries entail. For sale by Frank

She was rising forty, also fat and
