News was received here only a short
time ago OF the death at Lake Forest of
Miss Athie Seare; while not entirely
unexpected, as from time to time word
had come from her friends there of her
failing health, yet shock was felt when
we knew she had passed on as she was
wont to express herself when friends
met the great change which has come to
her. She was the only daughter of Cor
don and Abbie Owen Searle, was born
March 2lst, 1870 Her childhood and
girlhood were spent here. Later years
were passed in Middlebury and Benning-
ton then she went TO Lake Forest where
she was valued member in the home
of Ezra j. Warner until a few weeks
before her death, she was found to be
failing from trouble which only ended
at her death, she was taken to private
hospital where every thing that affection
could procure and money pay for was
done to relieve her sufferings but all were
of no avail and the end came a short
time ago. A mother, whose grief is
great and four brothers are mourning
her untimely death, besides many old
time friends who had always known her
and loved her better as the years went
by In that home to which she went
from here she was respected and loved
as though one of them and the place she
held as friend and companion will be
hard to fill. A strong personality was
hers. Her good nature was always up
permost, looking ever at the bright side
of life, for her the "silver lining" always
showed. Selfshness was no part of her
nature, her thoughts for others than her
self. At Christmas time, while suffering
from the fatal malady that took her life,
she, as had been her custom for many
years, remembered these old friends with
gifts and loving words. To the mother
and brothers we with many other friends
offer our sincere sympathy and may
they long cherish the memory of a de
voted, affectionate daughter and sister

IS Beneficial

The strongest physical specimens II
humanity, and those having the great
est endurance are found among those
who reject meats as food There Is
q mass OF scientific and other litera-
ture on the subject which any one
may get and read-and 1t is very con-
yincing. 1t shows that vegetarians
(of whom there are thousands IN
America), live longer and at less cost,
nave less sickness, are clearerminded,
and lave greater vitality to Withstand
shocks OF accident - misfortune than
those who subsist on meat food.
The only food the earth produces
which contains every element requir-
Cd for perfect nutrition is wheat which
from earliest ages has been regarded
as mans natural food.
On account of It's richness in car
bodhydrates, wheat is known as a
force producer" The best food form
OF wheat is Malta-vita in which pure
malt extract is used when the food Is
made to convert the wheat starch
principal carbohydrate into maltose
ready for absorption by the blood as
soon as the food is eaten. No other
faxed wheat food is treated in this
manner.
The maltese of Malta-vita is quick
ly converted into blood, nerve and
brain stuff without depicting the
vitality hence, frcshens the ener-
gies at once and gives power to brain
and body as no other food does, with
out robbing the system Of natural
strength
Malta-Vita gives much greater ener.
gy than any kind of meat. 1t is pre-
digested wheat, the most perfect of
all foods, and should be made a part
of the regular diet of all who value
good health and long life. Sold by
grocers, large sealed packages, 10
cents.
