TODAY'S BURDENS.

No one ever sinks under the
burden Of today. 1t is always the
tomonows and yesterday. that
overwhelm US. If it were no, for
the sorrows Of the past and our
fears and anxieties for the future
we could very well bear the cares Of
today and do its work. Every day
holds its strength and its compen-
sations as well as its troubles. but
it has no provision for that which
does not belong to il.

HANNAH. WIFE OF EDMUND BoNSEY.
An Ellsworth home has been sudtien My
bereft OF both heads in the death OF MIR.
and Mrs. Edmund Bonsey within a few
hours Of each other, and the sympathy OF
the community goes out in double meas
ure to the stricken family.
Mr.. Bonsey was stricken last night.
just after retiring. Though he had not
been in good health for some time, having
suffered several attacks of acute indiges-
tion which affected weak heart, be was
about as usual yesterday, and retired
about 9 O'Clock last evening. He was
reaching up to extinguish the light when
he suddenly expired.
Mrs. Bonsey had also been affected by
heart trouble, but seemed as well as usual
when she arose this morning. She had .
slight attack about o'clock and q physi-
clan was called. She rallied quickly from
attack, and died in Q few moments. The
shock OF Mr.. Bonsey's death doubtless in
duced her attack.
MIR. Bonsey was born in Ellsworth, and
this had always been his home. He was
in the seventy-eighth year OF his age.
As boy he entered the machine shop and
foundry OF Gording 4 Standish, on Grant
street, as an apprentice, and learned the
molding trade. Later, with his brother
Samuel, he purchased the sash and blind
manufacturing business OF Thomas Bros,
then located on Grant street adjoining
the foundry. The business was later
moved to Water street, first to the west
side and then to the east side, where it is
still continued. Mr.. Bonsey bought out his
brothers interest in the business years
ago, and later took his son, Wilson p, in
to Partnership, the firm now being E.
Bonsey & Son.
Mr.. Bonsey was . veteran OF the Civil
war, having enlisted rs . musician in the
9th Maine regiment July 8, 1881, and re-
ceiving his final discharge on August Is,
1852. He was . charter member OF VIM.
H. II. Rice post, and had served rs junior
and senior vice-commander. He was also
= member of Lygonia lodge, r. and A. NJ.
He leaves three children = Wilson p,
and Misses Helen and May Bonsey, all OF
Ellsworth. He 10 also survived by four
brothers and three sisters -Capts. Roland
and Alexander Bonsey, Mrs. Charlotte A.
Clement and Mrs. Susan Murch, Of Kills.
worth; Vernon Bonsey, OF Philadelphia;
Samuel Bonsey, OF Colorado, and Mrs.
Eugene Austin, OF Nevada.
Mrs. Bonsey was q daughter OF the late
Heman Cousins, and was born sixty-nine
years ago in that part OF the town Of
Trenton which is now Lamoine. Ellis
worth had been her home ever since her
marriage to MIR. Bonsey Jan. 9, 1856. For
years she had been active in the social and
religious life OF the community, and devo-
tion itself to Der home and family. She
was member OF the Congregational
church, of the woman's relief corps an i'd a
past worthy matron OF Irene chapter,

Cotton fabrics are wonderfully di
versified in Weave and coloring this
year. Any sort OF fabric, from the
sheerest laces to those resembling cor
duroy in surface and weight, may be
had in cotton, and therefore its use
fulness is increased. But the standard
weaves are unaffected by the new
ones. SO far, when IL comes to quanti-
ties used. Ginghams, chambrays, dim
tiles and lawns make up the bulk of
wearing apparel for children.
Ginghams and chambrays, in every
day wear for children, deserve all their
popularity. The ever-present plaids
and stripes have been most tastefully
wrought out. They seem to have lent
some inspiration to those who design
dresses for the schoolgirl.
The plain colors are liked for little
girls and boys alike, and many com
binations are notably good in which
plain 7colors are used to decorate the
plaids or stripes, or this is reversed
and the body of the garment is of the
plain fabric with the trimming of the
figured. In the striped patterns the
management of the stripes is cleverly
contrived to make trimming effects, so
that the garment is all of one kind of
goods.

MRS. OSL|N GAINS 0POUNDS; GIVES
 TANLAC CREDIT
Able to Do Own Housework Again and Is a Very
 Happy Woman

q have taken two bottles of Tanlac and have gained 101a pounds said Mrs. Nell Oslin, wife of E. G. Oslin the well known city fireman residing at 1112 North Thirteenth street. Birmingham in talking to the Tanlac man a few days ago.
 For long time I suffered with stom- ach trouble, constiation and nervous attacks" continued Mrs Oslin. For months I was under the care of splen- did doctor and when he told me he could not do me any good. l asked him if he objected to me taking Tanlac, AS l had read of so many people being benefited He said: Why, certainly not. it might help you and sure enough it did. Why sir, it just lifted me out of the bed and put me right on my feet.
 When I took i'll with stomach trouble I weighed 1SO pounds. l fell off until l weighed only l03 pounds, and 1 was so weak from exhaustion that l would have to go to bed and stay there for a week at time. l got so I could not do my own housework and my husband had to hire cook. At times my husband would lift me from the bed and carry me to the porch where l would sit in my chair for hours at a time
 T could scarcely eat anything at all and every day the cook would fix some tempting dish for me and when 1t was handed me I would become sick and could not eat. Just a cracker with a little broth was all the nourishment my stomach would stand. I was awfully ner- vous and could not sleep to do any good. l was on the verge of despair when concluded to try Tanlac as a last resort, although 1 had but little faith in the med tcine.
 Now after taking two bottles I just feel like new woman. I can eat any thing and the cook says that she Is tired trying to ike enough to satisfy my appe- 1o1h pounds Those nervous spells have left me and I now sleep like child. am now able to do my own work and will let my cook go Saturday night.
 T am not constipated like was and my strength and energy Is rapidly re- turning. In fact, I just feel like new person. Tanlac has done me more good than all the medicine l ever took com bined and I expect to take the full treat ment of six bottles. If I continue to gain I will soon be at myself again. In fact, my neighbors say my recovery is some- thing wonderful and several of them have commenced taking Tanlac. I want all women suffering as I was to know what Tanlac has done for me, and I would be ungrateful if I did not consent for you to publish what have told you"
 Tanlac, the master medicine which is 1 accomplishing such remarkable results, l as described by Mrs Oslin, Is sold ex- in Birmingham by Patton-Pope | and Jacobs Drug store, under | the personal direction of the Tanao rep | In Bessemer by Pegram- | Patton Drug company, and in Ensley by | the D. w.
