LIFE OF A MADISON
IADY'S RELATIVES.

Mr.. and Mrs. j. p. Larson of How
ard, parents of Miss Augusta Larson
of the millinery department of j. A.
.Johnson's store of this city. were
through passengers this morning, en-
route to New York City. Next Tues

sary of Mr.. and Mrs. Peter Knutsen,

ours on June 9, and the diamond
lgroom and bride are aged, respective
ly, SO and 95 years. Miss Augusta
Larson and sister visited at their
home five years ago and Miss Larson
possesses a kodak picture of the aged
couple which she snapped as they sat
in their garden. Miss Larson says
they are in the best of health and
| attend to their household affairs
daily. but, oh, how calm, and quiet
and easy they live!" remarked Miss
Larson. why, in Denmark, if peo-
pie rushed along the streets like they
do in this country, people would
think something awful was happen
Iing-a fire or something" Miss Lar
son accounts for the longevity of her
.ancestors because of their quiet
methods of living and happiness. In
her own family of parents and seven
children not one sorrow has ever
marred their happiness, and she re.
marked that in bidding her mother
lgood-bye this morning she said to hel
that she could not wish one blessing
upon her in view of the fact tina
their family life had been so uniform
ally happy. Miss Larson laughingl!
remarks that she expects to live II
become as old as the Oldest of he,
ancestors-and fully enjoy every mo
ment of her life.
Mr.. and Mrs. Larson will remain
abroad a year, visiting relatives an,
friends in Denmark and Norway.
