relatives and friends to make strong ef-
forts TO have the interment in Laurel

near the grave Of the late Governor Mar
vii was offered.

er said that he was urged by Philadel-
phians, to have the interment I'm that
city. In difference to the wishes Of his
mother, who is "a years old. however. he
decided TO have the interment here in
the old FAMILY lot.
Only five persons-the father and step
mother, "A brother and an uncle and
aunt-accompanied the body here. They
returned 70 Philadelphia Immediately
after the burial The floral offerings
were profuse. Many handsoce pieces
came from Philadelphia, and the various
societies Of all the churches here sent
flowers.
] Among the mourners were a numbe

presents from Miss Phillips in respons

The services were simple. The Rev
Avery Donovan. pastor OF Christ Metn
odist Protestant Church. read the fu
neral service and offered prayer. Their

Ill-1tting shoes are responsible for
many a childish ill.,
Unreasonable fatigue. bad carriage.
nervousness and pains in the limbs
are all traceable to this cause.
While it is difficult TO make sure
that the ready-made shoe is perfect in
this respect. it is as little as we can
do in buying shoes for children. to
study the shape of their foot and buy
as carefully as possible.
Never let child wear shoes that
are uncomfortable, If it can possibly
be avoided.
Better economize more rigidly in
