"Mr. Schmidt lived to see the town of
Berlin, where he suffered and endured
so many early hardships and tolls, rec
ognized throughout the entire state
as one of the very best agricultural
townships of Wisconsin. He lived to
see his old associates there rich and
prosperous, and in all ways respected
This complete vindication of his judg-
ment was always a source of pleasure
to him, and he delighted to live over
the old days and to tell the old stories
of toll and privation ending in success
and honor His name will always be
remem bered and future historians of
Marathon county will always point to
him as one of the best types of the
pioneer farmer citizen of Central Wis
consin He was in all ways whole
some, helpful man, clean of thought,
noble in purpose, generous in action; a
religious man, simple and without cant,
and it is fair to say of him he was a
model citizen of this republic"

CHRISTMAS SHOP TALK.

The attention of our readers is called
this week to the large amount of adj
vertising contained in this issue. We
advise people to read every al and
every line of every adj Ever since we
came into mans estate the matter of
'.Iaking Christmas selections has al
ways been a serious problem with us
for two reasons. One of these is that
no editor has ever been numbered
among the multi-millionaires and sec.
ondly our Judgment has been poor.
At one time in our life we knew of a
man who purchased a handsome silver
mounted toothbrush for feminine ac-
quaintance. 1t looked good TO him and
on Christmas eve he presented it to
her with his compliments. As the
shadows of eventide fall and darken
the earth, so PARKWAY look spread
over her eountenance which to him WIS
an ill omen, and with mo, thank
you his handsome tooth5ru was re-
turned, with an added remark, "He
who makes light of another's misfor-
tune is fool or knave." He learned
later that the lady's grinders were of
the store kind, purchased of eata-
logue house. 1t was ever thus. This
man never could make a selection.
Perhaps some of our readers are in the
same box and for their benefit we
again advise them to read what our
merchants have to offer. These ads
are the guide posts along the highway
of holiday shopping. They are the
little spirits which beckon you to where
you may find bargains-the beacon
lights which warn you against the
shoals of misiudgment.
All of these merchants would like TO
see you come to their stores early, be.
fore the riot sets in. Beginning with
next Monday their stores will be open
evenings up to and including Thurs
day, Dec. "a. If you can make your
selections in the forenoons, so much
the better. Any merchant will put
your goods away for you until needed
Another advantage of shopping early
IS that you get better stocks 10 select
from. Buy judiciously. Using tele.
phone language, you are the trans
mitter; the other fellow, the receiver.
Don't let the transmitter offend the re.
ceiver.

session of the council. held last Tuesday
evening, recommended that 1000 cords
of rock be purchased for macadamizing
purposes next season and the same was
adopted Thirteen property holders

A. H. CIRCUIT, Cashier.

The next market day will be Monday,
December a. On account Of weather
conditions no prizes will be offered by
the merchants this time. This feature
may be taken up again next spring. The

to going to the market square on market
days now, to make purchases, and no
doubt will continue to do so on favor
able days. 1t is therefore up to the far
mer to bring in the produce. He will
have no trouble in disposing of any
thing at reasonable prices. Live stock,
grain, hay and wood are always staple
articles in this section. The merchants
have encouraged the farmers: in this
matter this fall and it is now ur to the
farmers to show whether or not they are
in sympathy with it.

D EATH OF MRS. W. R. STEWART.

Ga Sunday night, Dec 9th, 1905, at /:
O'clock, Mrs. William e. Stewart die
at her home in this city, corner Fifth
and Grant streets, after an illness of
only three days. She did not feel well
at the dinner hour, on Thursday, and
soon after sought her bed. By evening
the family physician had pronounced
her illness a severe attack of pneumonia.
Three years ago Mrs. Stewart was
very i'll with pneumonia and for weeks
her lite hung upon a very slender
thread, and il seemed since then that
her health had not been as rugged as
in former years Owing to the nature
of the illness and to her extreme critical
condition from the first, very little hope
was held out for her recosery.
The announcement of her death
came with such suddenness to her
many friends that they can scarcely
realize that she has gone to her long,
final rest and that her useful life on
earth has been brought to close. Her
death comes to all with the keenest
sense of personal loss.
Mrs Susan Horn Stewart was born
in Philadelphia, July 3, 1871, and made
her home in that city until she grew
to womanhood, aud it was there that
she was united in marriage to the Rev.
VIM. r. Stewart. They came to Wau-
sau to reside in 1882, Rev. Stewart hav-
ing received a call here as pastor of
the First Presbyterian church. To-
gether they worked for the upbuilding
of the church and the good of the COM
munity at large, in which they were
eminently successful. Rev. Stewart, in
June, 1885, took brief vacation from
his pastoral duties, visiting his old
home in Philadelphia and to ofliciate at
the marriage of Mr.. and Mrs. Mont
gomery, which event took place in that
city. He was taken sick while
absent and on Sunday, June l4th,
passed away in Philadelphia.
Mrs. Stewart was greatly attached to
Wausau and its people and continued
to make this city her home. building
a residence on East hill which she
and her family occupied for many
years. Too much cannot be said of the
noble character of Mrs Stewart. She
was the very essence of kindness; gen.
erousness was one of her many most
excellent traits and she gave freely to
the relief OF those in distress. Charac-
teristic of her was her uniform cheer
fulness which apparently never deserted
her, even under the most depressing
circumstances. Her life in Wausau has
been an inspiration to those who had
the honor of an intimate acquaintance
and to those-and there were many
she will ever be remembered with
love and esteem.
Mrs. Stewart is survived by three
daughters and one son, all of whom
were with her at the close of her life,
viz; Mrs. j NJ Manson, Mrs. +. p.
Stone, and Miss Emma Stewart. of this
city and Mitchell Stewart, of Virginia
City, MINI.
The funeral services will take place
from the residence of f. p Stone, 6l0
Franklin street, at 1890 O'Clock,
Wednesday morning. The services
will be conducted by the Rev. S. N
Wilson, of Reedsburg, Wis. formerly
pastor of the First Presbyterian church
of this city. Interment viii be in Pine
Grove cemetery.
