Well" said Mccarthy, don't
you know when there's war it's
always the people that pray that win
the fights?"

Casey. They're great people to
pray, and yet they got licked. and

John Toomey and his recent life war
rants the sepulchral sound OF his cog
nomen. He swears that ne went
through all the following things WITH
out q murmur, even if he didn't pos
itively enjoy the whole list: wearing
white shirts and keeping clean at his
wife's behest; sweeping the house at
wifey's orders; being chastised by his
better half with a rolling pin; being
clouted in the face with shoe by
his help-mate; being laid up in a hos
pital for eight days after an attack
upon him with poker by his mate"
But when his loved one started to
smash him with a hammer he applied
for a divorce, telling the judge that
he thought that too much.

Nordiea.

A noble woman has passed. Through
out civilization she was known and Is
n,ourned. Names pride and grief are
shared by the American people. In
every land she had lifted by her
marvellous voice, Swallowed souls up to
the light. Men forgot their woes. their
schemes and their passions under the
smell of her art and presence. The
modest farm girl from a Maine hill
side had become one Of the most low
ed and admired personalities of the
world. She was magnificent of body
and mind. Her attributes were mold
ed in generous capacity. No small,
mean or enyious characteristics found
MACE in her nature. She was deVoia
of affected airs and graces-just cu!-
tivated naturally noble specimen OF
Maine womanhood, blessed with tai
ent that swelled the best emotions
softened the hearts and inspired the
hopes of humanity.
That was Lillian Norton, the Farm
ington, Maine, girl whose praises rang
wherever human intelligence is FOUND.
Today we mourn "Nordica," because
We would have preserved her IN the
MACE that cannot be filled, to inspire
other generations.
