HATTERTOWN.

SUDDEN DEATH OF REUBEN s. n. LANE.
The news of the sudden and untime-
ly death of Reuben Seth Hill Lane, at
Lincoln, Neb., on February IL, was a
shock to the people in this community
who had long known and loved the
young man. Born In Easton Is years
ago last uly, the second son OF Charles
and Frances Wells Lane, he came, in
his seventh year latter his fathers
death), to make his home with Mr. and
Mrs George r. Parmelee, who brought
him up as carefully as II he had been
their own son. Always bright, manly
and courteous, surrounded by Christian
Influences, he grew into an estimable
young man of good habits and fixed
principles, and when, few years ago,
he began his work as travelling sales
man for the Butterick Publishing Co.
Ham & Co. of the same city, these
same qualities, coupled with an active
and energetic nature, enabled him to
make a decided success of his chosen
occupation. His vacations were always
passed at the Parmelee homestead,
with the farm work, roaming the fields
and woods with gun and rod, or spend
ing a quiet evening among his friends.
Since the death of Mr. Parmelee, Mrs
Parmelee ("Mother Parmelee," as the
deceased affectionately called herr,
naturally turned TO ReuOeu DIS Gue
comfort and strength Of her declining
years, and now that he, too, has crossed
over the River, surely her cup Of sor-
row is more than full. A few days
before his death he was taken Ill and
the doctors diagnosed his trouble as
appendicitis and advised an operation.
Brave, gritty and hopeful he went to
the operating table, where it was
found his trouble was not what the
doctors thought. Just what it was
will probably never be known. In 48
hours after the operation he was
corpse The funeral, which was par
ticularly sad, was held on Tuesday
afternoon at 1872 State street, Bridge
port, the services being conducted by
Rev Mr. Green, pastor Of the Olivet
church. The floral offerings were very
beautiful. The interment followed in
Mountain Grove cemetery by the side
of his parents. Two brothers, and
host of relatives and friends sincerely
mourn his loss.

Little Economics.

81 once made up my mind" said a
London man. "that 1 would become
the possessor of a good gold watch. /
saved up the money for it in this way:
When / felt like eating a shilling
luncheon, as / often did, / kept it
down to tenpence. 1 put the twopence
saved toward my watch fund. You
will hardly believe me, but with little
economies like this had in less than
six months saved enough to buy my
gold watch "But." said a listener,
"where is your gold watch? You are
wearing poor little gun metal thing"
"Well," was the reply, 'when l found
how easily / could get along without
shilling luncheons l concluded | could
get along with a ten shilling watch in
stead of ten pound one. SO that the
watch fund grew until it purchased for
me my own house London Mail.

Hard water.

a farm woman in Pennsylvania once
said to me, Il never hear any one sing
"The Old Oaken Bucket without a
shudder." For fifteen years she had
done the cooking and washing for a
family of six with no other water sup
ply than what she had hauled out of
a well nearly thirty feet deep by means
of a bucket Baths in winter were al
most out of the question, and even in
the summer they We're regarded as an
occasion of more than ordinary impor-
fance. for which preparations had to
be made hours ahead of the great
event A cubic foot of water weighs
si1ty-two and half pounds, and in
all these years the number of tons
this woman had lifted had made poet
1cal illusions to ''iron bound" and
moss covered" buckets a good deal
like saying 'rope" to man about to
be hanged.-Farming
