MRS. ANNA E. BURR.

Anna E. Brainard was born at
Waterville, Ohio, October 23rd, 1854,
and passed out into the life immortal
| from her home in Wauseon at sunset,
May 25th, 1914, aged SO years, I
months and days. The beautlful
sunset on the date of her passing
seemed to be emblematic of the gen
tie and beautiful life that was ending
here to begin in that Land where
pain and sorrow are unknown. Mrs.
Burr came with her parents to Pet-
tisville in 1865 and her home was at
this place until her marriage, Octob-
er 9th, 1878 to Elijah E. Burr. Mr..
and Mrs. Burr went at once on their
farm home Southeast of Wauseon on
the farm now occupied by Henry Gift
few this was their home until the
death of Mr.. Burr, in 1897 when Mrs.
Burr with her two younger daugh-
ters moved to Wauseon where she
has made her home since that time.
Shortly after her marriage in 1878
Mrs. Burr united with the First Con-
gregational church of Wauseon and
she remained a faithful member of
this church to the time, of her de-
cease; though for many years she
was unable to attend the services on
account of sickness. For 80 years
Mrs. Burr has been an invalid and
for 10 years she suffered almost con-
stant physical pain, yet through it
all she was uncomplaining, always
quiet and gentle in her demeanor and
keeping the home for her loved ones.
Besides her husband, one infant
daughter had preceded her to the
Home beyond and there are left to
cherish her memory four children,
one son, Mr.. Guy Burr and three
daughters, Mrs. Cora Weir and the
Misses Grace and Julia Burr. Three
sisters; Mrs. FL. Spencer and Mrs.
Flora Whitaker of Wauseon, and
Mrs. ]. w. Donovan of Detroit are al
so left, to mourn their loss. Funeral
services conducted by her. pastor Rev.
W. T. Williams were held from the
home on Beech street Thursday af-
ternoon May 2Sth, and interment
made in Wauseon cemetery.
Friends from out-of-town present
at the funeral were: Mr.. j. w.
Donovan and Miss Isabel Roney of
Detroit, Mrs. L. B. Chambers and
Mrs. S. o. Rothfuss of Toledo; Mr..
and Mrs. c.. Burr Marsh and Miss
Zilpha Marsh of Gallon: Mrs. M. A.
Smith and Mrs. H. D. Pegg of Nor
enci, Mich; and Mr.. Gordon Burr Of
Pittsburgh, Pa.

THE BOYS IN BLUE.

The Boys in Blue never forget each
others birthdays and though they try
to be very secret about it the "Boy''
whose birthday is to be celebrated Of
ten finds out about the Gaming"
tnat is coming to him; such was the
case this week with Comrade Abe
Hogeboom: He had a birthday COM
ing June 9th, his SEVENTEEN, and he
found out that his comrades had held
Court Martial and decided to advance
him to the "Cane Rank" Comrade
Abe had family reunion scheduled
for Wednesday and he served notice
on his comraes that if they were
bound to cane him they must do it
In the presence of his friends at the
family reunion which was to take
place on Wednesday at the home of
his son-in-law and daughter, Mr.. and
Mrs. Arthur Gallagher on East
Chestnut street.
Accordingly Wednesday noon a
company of about rs members of the
G. A. R. and associate members
marched upon Comrade Abe and
found him entrenched in the quart
ers before mentioned well garrison
ed and provisioned and colors flying:
No seige was necessary for Mr..
Hogeboom was ready to capitulate to
his old Comrades; through spokes-
man chosen from the ranks of the as
sociates the invading force proceed
ed to bestow upon their beloved COM
rade the rank of the cane and present
ed him with beautiful gold headed
cane. Mr.. Hogeboom called on anoth-
er associate, Hon. ]. B. Templeton
to respond for him his heart being
too full for utterance. Then the in
vadlng party were seated at the
tables set under canopy on the lawn
and with the family par-took of
dinner in regard to which it were
easier to tell what was not on the
menu than to tell what was pressed
upon the diners-and they all ate
valliantly but hardly made visible
impression on the supply of good
things. After the dinner an improm-
tue fife and drum corps consisting of
j. B. Templeton, James Hill of Delta
and Simeon Boyer discoursed mar
tial music. and everybody enjoved
everything even to having Doc. Mil
ler shoot the whole crowd with

following suggestions for the care OF
tuberculosis patients.
II you know of such a case, refer

to take the place of physicians or
ders. Every eonsumptIve should con.
suit a doctor, and these suggestions
are given to help the patient carry out
his directions.

the open-air treatment, and exercise
must be regulated by the doctor. Al

never remain out IL chilled. Cold
weather should have a bracing effect,
and when 1t does not, go into a warm
room and get hot drink. preferably
milk, remaining indoors until comfort.

more wraps, and keep behind shield
or screen that breaks the force Of the
wind. Always be cheerful and hope
ful; never waste your strength in an
ger or by being cross. Lead a tenn
perate life, go to bed early and get up
late; do not use alcohol in any form
except when prescribed by your doc
tor. Do away with tobacco if posi-

In small quantities. Never swallow

stroy every particle by splitting in a
paper or cloth which can be burned.
Never allow the hands, face or
clothing to be soiled by sputum, and
II this happens by accident, wash the
place soiled with soap and hot water.
Men who have consumption should not
wear a moustache or beard unless it

linen should be handled as little as
possible until they are boiled prior to

but must be done both as protection
to the household and in order to bring
about speedy cure for the patient"

A PHILOSOPHER.

Says "there is more real satisfac-
tion in anticipation than in realiza-
tion;" but we are of the opinion that
the realization of having won a free
trip to Washington for growing the
most corn on one acre of ground, or
showing proficiency in Domestic Sci
ence, would be a satisfactory ending
of anticipation. Boys and Girls, have
you entered in these contests? There
is yet time to do so. Write A. P.
Sandles, Columbus, for blanks.

County were filed with the .Agricul-
tural Commission since last report:
