The Summer Exodus.

The summer exodus is on. 1t is
shown by the crowded staterooms
on Trans Atlantic liners departing
for the other side of the pond and
by the opening of summer homes
by the city rich. The exodus begins
earlier and earlier each year and
wonld take place as soon as the
snow departs were it not for the
requirements of the young in the
matter of education. With the first
breath of spring the country appeals
to those who are shut up in the city
all winter. Many delightful pleas
ures are provided for our city friends
during the winter period but this
does not prevent longing for green
fields and close communion with
nature which can only be enjoyed
away from the crowded centers OF
population. 1t is fortunate. how
ever, that adjacent to most OF our
large cities are charming suburbs
wherein country life can be lived
almost as pleasantly and simply as
on farm, and with excellent trans
portation facilities are drawing
more and more people from the
urban population. The desire for
a change is seen in the numbers
who yearly 60 somewhere to see
something new and to get inspira-
ton from new associations in unfa-
miliar lands.

Deaths of the Week.

you are an observer, you see some
one, possibly your best friend,
whom you know is going beyond
his speed limit. There is waste and
danger in every turn of the crank
shaft. He is going through life on
the fast train--the midnight flyer
You are both destined for the
same station. At the rate he is
moving, he does not here the
shrek of the engine or heed the
red light at the semaphore. After
a while, when he is jolted to the
side of the car by sharp curve,
he begins to realize that there are
but few more pages in his mileage
book-and then life's journey is
over. He has harvested his grain
in the green and the kernels of
barley are shrunken and worthless.
The train he has been riding on was
too fast. Looking back over LIES
bill of fare, he sees he has only
taken champagne and strawberry
shortcake when pure water and
plain steaks would have been much
better. But it is TOO late. He has
crossed the valleys of green and
gold like the whirlwind that soon
exhausts itself and is forgotten.
Young man or young woman, be-
fore your mileage is all gone, see if
the train you are riding on is not
going too fast. If it is, then get
off at the first station. Keep part
of life's dessert to be enjoyed when
others are going about with empty
lunch baskets. Take a slower train
and enjoy the scenery.

WALKER.

Mrs. Ed Walker, who had been
ar inmate of the county asylum for
a long term of years, passed away
at the county institution Tuesday,
aged 10 years.
Deceased was born near Rock
vile and passed her childhood days
there. Her maiden name was
Josephine Dunn and May 81, 1879,
she was married to Edward Walker.
Five children were born to them,
girls and 2 boys, all of whom are
still living. Mrs. Walker became
demented about IL years ago
through i'll health and never fully
recovered her reason.
Every effort a devoted husband
and talented medical advice and
attention was resorted TO in the
fruitless task of restoring the mind
of old, but to no avail, and death
after a brief illness removed one OF
the best of life's helpmates and one
of the most indulgenJ of mothers.
Funeral Obsequies were conducted
at the family residence in South
Lancaster Thursday, Rev. Morgans
officiating, and were largely at
tended.

And it came to pass that after
he had advertised his goods, there
came unto him great multltudes
from all the regions round about
and did buy of him. And when his
competitors saw it they marveled
among themselves, saying: ''How
be it that this man is busy while we
loaf idly about our doorsw And he
spake unto them: I'm this fast age
of push and rustic it is easier for a
camel to enter the eye of a needle
than for man to flourish without
advertising"

KLARMAN.

Sad indeed was the death of Mrs.
Chas. Klarman Wednesday. III but
q few hours the announcement of
her death was shock to the large
circle of acquaintance she had
made here, everyone of whom was
q friend.
Inga Instenes was born in Nor
way Nov. IL, 1876. She came, with
her parents to this country and to
Wisconsin when six years of age.
They made their home at Beaver
Creek, Jackson Co. On August 10,
1904 she was married to Charles NJ.
Klarman and came at once to Lam
caster. In her girlheod she was
confirmed in the Lutheran church
and continued in that communion,
but since coming TO Lancaster she
had attended the Congregational
church and was a member of the
Ladies Aid Society of that body.
She became a member of the Order
ofthe Eastern Star on March 20, 1905.
Mrs. Klarman had endeared her
self to large circle of friends who
will deeply sympathize with her
husband and other relatives in the
loss which is experienced in her
sudden and untimely decease.
She departed this life in the early
morning hours of Wednesday, May
1st, 1907. Besides her husband,
Charles M. KlarmaH, she is survived
by her parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
Howard Instenes, who reside near
Melrose, Wis, and the following
brothers and sisters: Andrew and
Mary of Melrose, Lars of Lacrosse,
Anna of Milwaukee, Helen of Be-
lott and Emil, who is with the u.
S. Coast Artillery in Washington.
The funeral service was held at
the residence on Friday afternoon,
conducted by Rev. W. II. Hanna
ford and the burial service in the
Hillside cemetery, was in charge of
the Eastern Star.
BEYOND those chill and gloomy skies,
Beyond deaths cloudy portal.
There is land where beauty never dies,
No hidden grief
No wild and cherries vision of despair.
No vain petition for a swift relief.
No fearful eyes. no broken hearts are
there"

Take a Slow Train.

Young man or woman, in going
through this world take a slow
train. You may not go as fast, but
the farther you get along in life the
more you will enjoy the scenery.
Then, too, in going slower there is
not the danger of running into open
switches or encountering head on
collisions. Don't go into every
station along life's pathway with a
hot box and steam blowing off.
Save the steam for the grade you
are bound ito come TO before you
cross the big divide. Every day, if

Bishop Mcdowell stirred up q
hornets nest in Milwaukee, when
he dedicated the laying of the cor
uer stone of the Grand Avenue
Methodist church, by declaring
that the modern church must be
conducted along modern lines, and
if the old-fashioned prayer meeting
is played out then it must go. The
old-time class-meetlng has practical
ly disappeared and the meagre at
tendance at the mid-week prayer
meeting indicates that the bishop
was familiar with conditions.
-McCutcheon had a good one on
the weather Tuesday. The old
weather man sat in his chair sleep
ing TRANQUILITY, and so did the cat.
Old Satan had full control, as he
stood behind the old man slumbor-
ing in an easy chair. There were
four levers, each bearing a word :
''sleet," SNOW" rain" wind. y
His satanic majesty's right hand
was on the rain" lever, the left on
snow" and his tail was twined
around the ''sleet" lever. This
would indicate that the control of
the weather of late has gone to the
"Old Harry" politely speaking.

The admission of Oklahoma to the
Union as state has raised a dispute as
to how the additional star should be
placed in the flag without disarranging
the present pattern. There is no dispute,
however, in regard to the intrinsic value
of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters in cases
of stomach, liver, kidney or bowel dis
orders. In fact it is universally acknowl-
eyed to be the best medicine ever COM
pounded for such disorders and for proof
it is only necessary to point to the
thousands of cures it has made during the
past SO years. We believe it is the med
icine you need to make you well again.
and that's why we urge you so strongly
to try a bottle at once. 1t cures poor

ness, female ills or malaria. Insist on
having Hostetters. It's absolutely pure
