ted plants that transformed the whole
interior of the residence into verita-
BILE fairyland, Miss Harriet May Hut
son, only daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Frederick G. Hutson, became the wife

white roses, while fragrant lilies and
festoons of graceful smilaX added to
the general charm. The bride wore
beautiful gown of ivory white cashmere
de sole and carried a bouquet of brides
roses and swansonia. She was attend
ed by Miss Eva Kasiska, senior stu.
dent at the university, who was attired
in white and carried pink roses. The
groom had for best man Mr.. Thomas
r. Hutson, brother of the bride, the
groom receiving his bride from the
father, Mr.. F. c. Hutson, who gave
her away. In the parlor, where the

Jacque roses were the chief adornment,
while in the hall the stately palm and
dainty fern held sway, being supple
mented with an abundance of smilaX on
the arches, the whole effect being ex-
tremely charming. Amid this profu-
sion of foliage and bloom buffet

Obituary.


MRS. MARIA LOUISA SMITH POTTER.
Mrs. Maria Louisa Smith Potter was
born to Simeon and Lucy Potter Smith
at TROY, N. Y, May 20, 1925. When
IL wears Of age she was married, May
20, 1912, to George Washington Potter.
Exactly three years later, on the ami
versary of their wedding day, they
drove up Potter street in Albion, Wis,
past the farm which has been for many
wears their home. Until the death of
her husband three years ago they re-
sided here. Since that time her physl-
cal condition has been such as to re-
uuire constant care and the family were
fortunate in securing the services Oh
Mr.. and Mrs. Chas. Smith of Albion,
at whose home for the past two and
one-half years she has been most faith
fully and tenderly cared for. During
these years there has been a gradual
decline in her physical and mental pow
ers, until on the forenoon of June ID
she was released from the suffering
body and the spirit took its flight. Two
half brothers and half-sister are now
the only survivors of a family of nine
teen children.
To Mr.. and Mrs. Potter were born
three children = Seraph1na (Dudley),
Frances (Walters) and William S. The
son is the last remaining member of
the family Five grandchildren are the
other nearest relatives.
She early joined the Albion Seventh
Day Baptist church, of which she re-
NAMED member until the time of her
death.
It is remembered by those who knew
her best how she loved the beautiful
and pure Children were her JOY and
the flowers on the lawn and about the
door were the objects of her loving
care. Her chief delight in them seem
ed to be to bestow their beauty upon
others with lavish hand.
Farewell services, conducted by Pas
tor Van Horn, were held at the home
stead Friday afternoon, June II, and
the weary body was laid to rest in Al
bion cemetery.

Are they profitable? Let us.illustrate:
On May 18th Mr.. Wentworth sold some
of our property to Mr.. Roberts of
Stoughton, which he relisted with us
at an advance of So. 90 an acre. On the
10th day of June Mr.. Wentworth re-
sold the land for Mr.. Roberts at the
advanced price, paying Mr.. Roberts
100 per cent upon the money paid in, IN
20 days He relied upon Mr.. Went
worth's judgment throughout. Can we
do this for you? Let US see. We with
others bought %, 900 acres at rock bot

will double our money for US, and yet
the ranch west of ours has recently
sold for $500 an acre. Certainly no

YELLOW fever WAR
WAGED IN BRAZIL
DR.. Oswald Cruz Invades Anna
zon Valley to Wipe Out
Dread Disease

Dr Oswald Cruz. who did so much TO
transform Rio de Jsneiro from one of
the most unhealthful to one of the
most healthful cities. is now in the
Amazon valley to wage a campaign
against yellow fever. malaria and other
diseases which have constituted men
aces TO life and to the extension OF
commerce and industries in that vast
region. according to Vice Consul Cen
eral J. J. Siechta OF Rio de Janeiro
The FIRST work to be undertaken VIII
be in the region now occupied by the
American contra ctors who are building
the RAILROAD around the falls of the
Madeira and Marmore rivers. 500 miles
to the south OF the export rubber mar
ket of Manaos. American medical men
have been employed by the contractors
and builders of this railroad 10 relieFe
the situation. so far a s possible. OF the
dreaded yellow fever, beri beri and other
diseases which affiict workmen IN tha'
region. Thsv have accomplished much.
but that the situation is not yet all it
should he is evidenced by the contract
which the company has made with Doc
tor Cruz. who is to direct the work OF
sanitation along the right of way OF
the railroad and utilize for that pur-
pose some of the experience he has had
in wiping out yellow fever in Rio De
Janeiro.
After the completion of his work in
the Madeira -Marmore region, 1t Is un-
derstood that the company exploiting
the contract for the port of Para. at
the mouth of the Amazon. Will obtain
his services in wiping yellow fever out
of that city where this disease is still
more or less prevalent. The port OF
Msnaos is also anxious TO engage his
services in a similar campaign. and If
Ehe work is carried out as planned and
he success of the same is as marked
las in Rio de Janeiro. the Amazon val
hev will be rid of one. OF it's chief handi-
cans in the extension Of trade and COM
merce with the rest OF Brazil and the
outside world.
Rubber gathering will rapidly assume
the character of industries as they eX-
ist elsewhere and will tend to lose the
character which il has retained through
genera tions-that Of frontier trading
of which the perils are so great that
only the more hardy element of the
population of the country can be in
duced to engage in the occupation. So
long as lthe bulk of the rubber supply
must come largely from the virgin for
ests many of the elements of this
frontier trading life must remain, but
with the more important centers made
desirable as residences for Europeans
and others from the temperate zones
the influences thus set 10 work will
surely extend even into the remotest
regions traversed by the rubber gath
erers. where rife ammunition now
masses current as a medium of eN-
change.

The Ewes of 4 Zee,

Every bee has two kinds Of eyes
the two large compound ones looking
like hcmisphcres on either side, and
the three simple ones which crown the
top of his head. Each compound eye
Is composed Of $500 faccts-that is to
say, an object IS reflected $500 times
on its surface. Every one OF these
facets IS the base of an Inverted hex
lyola pyramid whose apex IS fitted
to the head Each pyramid may be
termed an eye, for each has its own
iris and optic nerve. How these in
sects manage this marvellous number
Of eyes is not yet known. They are
immovable, but mobility is unnecessary
because Of the range Of vision afford
ed by the position and the number Of
facets. They have no lids. but are
protected from dust and injury by
rows Of hairs growing along the lines
ut the functions Of the facets. The
simple eyes are supposed to have been
given the bee to enable it to see above
its head when intent upon gathering
honey from the cups CT flowers. Prob
ably this may be one reason, but 1t is
likely there are other uses for them
not vet ascertnined. -PearSon'S Week.

Donizetti and Coffee

the coffeepCt. 1t would be interesting
to know accurately the total amount
of coffee this erratlc genius managed
to consume during his short career. 1t
was his habit to shut himself UP in his
room with writing materials and three
or four cotfcepots full Of stcaning cof-
fec. When these were cmptied he or
dercd In three or four more and. these
disposed Of in their turn. another three
or four. His bIographer says that the
amount Of coffee he drank was "fabu.
lous." and one can well believe it. The
effect on his once fine constitution was
deplorable. His face shrivcled and
turned yellow. his lips became black,
and with the inevitable breakdown Of
his nervous system his genius fell rap

Beatinu the Postoffice.

Here IS IL curious process by which
the French postotlice was beaten. y
wealthy merchant who refused to pay
nm excess fee was sued by the postal
authorities and lost the suit. He re-
taIiated by building shanty In re-
mote district Of the Hautes-Alpcs,
about twenty miles from any postof-
fee, and installing therein a shepherd,
in whose name he subscribed to the
daily Petit Journal. According to the
terms Of the postal monopoly IN
France, the department Is bound to
provide daily service wherever re-
quired, and it would have been ncces-
sary to engage n postman solely for
the delivery Of this newspaper, rs no
other house Is to be found within 4
radius Of about eight miles. The post
office, sooner than embark on an eX-
penditure of about $40 year, con-
scented to forego the 10 centimes e
cents in dispute. pay the defendants
costs and compensate the shepherd for
the loss of his daily paper.

Their Old Stories,

4 mau whr never could tell story
Joined story tellers' club that thought
1t had a corner on the humor of the
universe. The man got along very
we'll so long as he didn't have to say
ANYTHING, but there came q time when
he was put on the program for q
humorous story, and then his wife
coached him for a week beforehand
on one Of her own funniest stories.
When he came home from the story
telling contest she asked him how
things went. He said: Pretty we'll.
All the other fellows told some
mighty good ones" Then he gave u
synopsis of the good ones the other
fellows had told. "Darned clever,
those chaps are" he said. Il don't
know what they would think Of me If
they knew l had learned my story
from a woman. They don't think
much Of a womans sense Of humor."
"You needn't let that worry you.
DEAR" she said sweetly. 81 have
heard the other fellows wives tell
their old stories at card parties for the
last five years."-New York Press.
