Death of George A. Harris

George Akeley Harris, aged SS years
the oldest resident of Stowe, passed
peacefully away Saturday morning at his
home on Maple Street. He had been in
feeble health for several years. The i'm
mediate cause of his death was an attack
of the grip, from which he was too weak
to rally. Mr.. Harris was born in Stowe
December'16, 1922, and nearly all of his
long life was passed here. He was a
prosperous farmer and held many town
offices in his younger years. His father
Joel Harris, Jr., was born in Stowe in
1896, soon after the settlement of the
town. The elder Joel Harris came to
Stowe from Colchester, Conn, and was
one of the early settlers. Mr.. Harris
mother was Mehitable Akely. and he was
the last survivor of family of six child
rem. He married June 7, 1916, Miss
Catherine Bridge of Elmore, who died
February 10, 1907. Of their eight child
rem, daughter, Miss Ida Harris, and
three sons, Lucius l.. Harris, Whitman
F. Harris, and Fred H. Harris, reside in
Stowe, and son Oscar G. Harris, in
Springfield, Mass. A daughter, Mrs.
Nettie A. Holmes, and two sons, Benton
j. Harris and Charles B. Harris, have
been dead many years. Among the
grandchildren, Robert B. Harris resides
in Louisiana, George S. Harris in Orange,
N. j., and Dwight Harris in st. Johns
bury.
The funeral services were held from
his late home Monday afternoon, Rev. F.
T. Crane officiating. Among those from
out of town to attend the funeral were
Mr.. and Mrs. A. w. Ferrln of Montpelier,
O. G. Harris of Springfield, Mass, and
Dwight Harris of st. Johnsbury

Blending the Odors.

1t has been proved that two odors
which do not seem to have anything
in common. that of pUtrehed cheese
and that of pineapple, are so closely
allied from the chemical standpoint
that 1t takes but few minutes to
transform an intense stencil into a
sweet fragrance. This curious expert
ment is easily made and requires but a
small amount of three chemicals
valerianic acid. sulphuric acid and
amylic alcohol. Care must be taken
not to spill over the fingers or dress
any drop of the first two named liq-
uids. Suphuric acid is exceedingly
caustic and the stencil of valerianic
acid. besides being uncomfortable. is
very difficult to get rid of.-LOndon
