 Part of her equipment was pair of slippers that squea4ked so loudly that the attending physicians had to tell the old lady she must keep out of the room or get noiseless footwear.
 With the best motives in the world she would beat up my fathers pillows just as he was dozing off into a f1tfu1 sleep.

DAN SPRY DIES
WHILE THRESH|NG

Mr.. Dan Spry, farmer living
ing at a neighbours home, died sud
denly last Saturday
Mr.. Spry is a son-in-law of r. j..
Roberts and wife, of West Extra,
who We're hastily notified and went
by auto to console their daughter.
He had been in good health and
was known by many farmers for
miles around, having run a thresh-
ing machine for thirty-five years.
His genial and honest nature made
him many friends of the neighbors
and trades people with whom he
dealt.
Not feeling just right he left his
machine in charge of relative and
went to his home which was only
a short distance away, just before
dinner, and by $3.50 p. M. he had
gone where trials and fluctuations
diseases and pains, will be no more
His demise was a sad removal
from his neighborhood as his health
was considered as good as the av.
erage Woodworking man, and he
labored ON till two or three hours
before his death in the full posses.
sion of his faculties and vigor.
He leaves a wife and daughter
to mourn his departure, and to kee1
in memory that kind husband ant
father, who never more shall scat
ter their burdens and fears, by the
CLEAN of sunshine that he shet
DER their pathway.
Our sympathy goes out to the be
reaved ones.
