OBITUARY

Mrs. Lydia E. Cooper, widow OF
Joseph Cooper, deceased, departed this
life at her home in Spring Grove
Sept. 10, 1912, 8 o'clock p. m, in her
9th year. She was member OF
Whitewater Friends church, interest
ed in all the departments of its work
She was regular attendant upon all
the church services including the
Sabbath school until failing health de
prived her of this enjoyment. Her
hope of Heaven was through the sac.
rifice offering of Jesus as her Savior
1t was great satisfaction and com
fort to her, during the last two weeks
of her life when she was confined to
her bed, to have with her continually
her dear nieces and nephews, who
were untiring in their ministrations OF
love and devotion anticipating her ev.
cry comfort.
During the first of these two weeks
she bid an affectionate farewell to
the loved ones about her, and send
ing messages of love and farewell to
those far away, invoking Gods bless
ing, and speaking of the happy re-
union on the other shore
Blessed are the dead who die in
the Lord, from henceforth; Yea saith
the Spirit that they may rest from
their labors and their works do fol.
low them"

DEEPEST SLEEP.
It Always Occurs During the First
Hour of Slumber.

It Always Occurs During the First
Hour of Siumber.
YES" said the doctor, sleep is a
very puzzlins mystery. Nobody knows
what the cause of it is, but we do
know that 1t is always accompanied
by anaemia Of the brain. In other
words, when you sleep the blood
drains away from the head to the
limbs. If you fell asleep on bal
anced bed, the moment you dropped
off the foot of the bed would begin to
sink, and the deeper the sleep the
greater the slant.
That is why hot bath tends to
sleepiness. 1t brings the blood to the
brain. Curiously enough. great cold
has the same effect and for the same
reason. You know how cold swells
and reddens the hands.
Recent experiments have shown
conclusively how pale and bloodless
the brain grows in sleep. How
Well, piece of bone has been remov-
ed from the skull OF puppy and a
watchglass inserted instead. The mo-
ment the puppy under observation
wakes its brain at once grows pink
again. No; the puppy doesn't seem to
mind it.
Experiments made by dropping
heavy balls have shown that sleep is
always at its deepest in the first hour.

lower and shallower" - London An

M auI Rock.

Among the numerous natural Gu
riosities of West Virginia is one in
Lincoln county called the Maui rock
because Of its similarity to a maui.
The base of the rock is about a
thousand feet above sea level and is
made up Of large powders, says an
exchange. The stem of the rock is
twenty feet high and will average
about seven feet in diameter. The
cap, or maui part, is about six feet
thick and is thirty-eight feet in cir
conference. The stem is of a soft
formation and is fast crumbling away,
since the timber has died that was a
great protection from the force of
strong winds. By mounting the rock
by means of a ladder that is kept
there a magnificent view of the West
Virginia hills can be obtained. Chris,

were left alone. I've forgotten why,
but that's the way it was.
I'VE We're talking of a subject in
which we were both interested, and
we were having beautiful time. But
it occurred to the hostess that one OF
both of us might feel neglected. So
she called out from the other side OF
the room:
why, Miss Jordan, what are you
and Mrs. Blank talking about all by
yourselves?
Mrs. Blank is telling me how she
lost ten pounds I replied
well, you ought to have seen the
center rush. Every woman in the
room made a wild dash for our corner,
and all crowded around us. The eyes
Of every woman were all alight with
eagerness. And from every woman's
throat burst the one impassioned word:

Tho Subject Tir>t Reused the Interest
of Every W>snan Present.


Elizabeth Jordan, who recently I'm
ished a play the second act of which
is laid in a beauty parlor, was talking
the other day about women beauty
parlors and conversation.
There are good many things that
a good many women are interested in, -
she said. But there is one subject of
conversation that will draw every wo-
mans attention. She'll forget every
thing else in the world to discuss it.
To illustrate my conviction I'll tell you
story. This actually happened:
"One day last winter was at a din,
ner where there were fifteen or twenty
other women guests. When we went
to the drawing room after dinner
leaving the men to their cigars, it hap
pened that all the women but myself
and one other got into one corner of
the room, and 1 and one fellow guest
