PRINTED by REQUEST.

David Fortnam, mention of whose
death appeared in last weeks Citi-
zen, died of heart trouble at his
home, Tyler Hill, at 2 a. m. We'd
nesday, May Is, 1912, and the fun
eral was held on Friday at the Da-
mascus Baptist church, the pastor,
Rev. II. ID. Minch, officiating. Mr..
Fortnam had a slight stroke in Feb
ruary and since that time he had
had several attacks of heart trouble.
On Tuesday afternoon preceding his
death he called on a neighbor, How
ard Lord, returned home at p.
M, ate his supper and retired. In
the night heart trouble came on and
he passed quietly away.
Mr.. Fortnam was born in England
and at the age of six years he came
with his parents and they settled at
Ararat, Susquehanna county. Four
years later they removed to Tyler
Hill, where David grew to manhood
and became one of the most sue
cessful dairy farmers in the county.
He was postmaster at Tyler Hill for
a number of years, and was honor
ed and respected by all his acquaint-
ances. He was a man of sterling
character, one whose word was al
ways as good as a bond" In 1856
he and his wife, who was a sister of
Israel Tyler, united with the Damas-
Gus Baptist church, and in 1872 he
was chosen deacon, which Office he
filled continuously with earnest,
Christian grace. The doors of his
handsome home were ever open to
welcome his pastor or any visiting
minister. He was quiet, unassuming,
never seeking preferment, but what
ever duty he was called upon to do,
was performed promptly and in the
best manner possible.
His wife died May 81, 1902.
Three daughters and one son were
born to them, none of whom survive.
! The son, Thomas L., died July 23,
1911, leaving a wife, Helen Bush
nell. and one son, Clarence. Tobias
A. Smith, of Tyler Hill, is a stepson
of the deceased.

Two Wedding Texts.

John Quincy Adams and John Han
cock, "the signer." married two sisters,
the daughters of a noted Methodist di-
vine in Connecticut. John Quincy was
a favorite with the old people, and
Mary's choice was approved by them.
So when the banns were published the
parent said, MARY, if you will furnish
the text l will preach you wedding
sermon" She was equal to the task
and gave the text, MARY hath chosen
the good part, which shall not be taken
from her" Needless to say that JUS
tice was done to the occasion and the
text.
Not so with Margaret, who in the
meanwhile was receiving the atten-
tions of her John in a very ineXpen-
sive way, as far as her parents We're
concerned, for it is said that "he never
crossed his legs under their festive
board" So, when the banns were pub
lished she said to her father: Father,
you preached a wedding sermon for
Mary. Cannot you preach one for
me?" He at first demurred, but at
last consented and called for the text,
when Margaret, who was equal to the
occasion, said, "And John came, nei-
ther eating nor drinking, and yet ye
say he hath q devil. l."-Philadelphia In

KuRlos FROM koRREsPoNpENrs

Q. l paid $40 for a setting of White
Rock eggs, and the twelve chicks
hatched were not pure white. Should
they not be pure white If pure bred?
A. White Rock chicks in the down
are apt to come white, canary,
smoky, grayish black, buff, and can
not be judged as to color until feath-
ers appear We have seen them al
most black. then feather into silver
white.
Q. l have Leghorn cockerel with

can cockerels and pullets with "posl-
tive white" in the face How may /
tell whether it is positive white" or
Just common ordinary white? A. Rub
the white spot with the finger. If it
turns red and remains so for several
seconds 1t Is not positive white" BY
such friction this "enamel white" is
often removed If persisted in.
Q. What do you think makes my
pigeons desert their eggs and squads? {?
They only feed what squads are
hatched a few days. A. There are a
number of reasons for thls-excite-
ment, mice or ticks in the nest and
the battles, flirtatlons, family jars and
elopements caused by minated birds
In the loft.
@. What is a squirrel tall and
what is "coop tail?" A. The word
squirrel" is applied to a fowls tail
when it projects toward the head be-
yond a perpindicular line drawn from
juncture of back and tail. The
squirrel tail is inherited and perma-
nent, but the coop tail is acquired by
fowls that are confined in a small
show coop. When given more room
they drop their tails back to natural
position.
1 Q. Is it true that Canada ships more
eggs into this country than we send

100000 eggs and Capada's 100000.

The frequency with which revolu-
tions occur in Latin American lands
makes them "anybody's game" and as
a result Of this many persons with
out experience either in conspiracy or
battle are likely at any moment to find
themselves cOnspirators and warriors.
One Of these novices at the gentle art
of 'revoluting" is the hero of the tale
which follows. a favorite in a certain
South American republic.
The novice in question. having sud
denly acquired violent distaste for
the president of his native land, rush
ed away from home in Il great rage
and enlisted in the revolutionary
ranks The next thing he knew he was
detailed to raise troops in a certain
district.
1t was explained to him that he must
envelop all his acts in dark secrecy. In
order the better to accomplish this
the revolutionary commander told the
novice that whenever he felt called
upon TO rem dispatch he must couch
il in the terms of code. so that gov
ernment officers might not guess the
meaning of any dispatch if it fell into
their hands.
The novice promised to follow in
structions to the letter. A few weeks
later he had collected force of SOL
dicrs and desired to acQuaint revolu-
uonary headquarters with the fact.
Taking his copy of the code from his
pocket he duly noted that Cow" was
