how it will, if it be true that hgures

Death of Walter |. Potter

Walter Irving Potter died at his home
in Barton Sunday afternoon, April 16,
after an illness of five months of pulmo-
nary tuberculosis. Mr.. Potter was born

able workman in woodworking. A
young man of sterling character, quiet
and retiring by nature, he had many
friends and was held in the highest es-
TEEN by everyone in the community.
He was member of Orleans Lodge,
No. SO, f. & A. M. He is survived by
his mother, Mrs. Laura Potter; three
brothers, Homer c.. Leon l. and Mer-
rift j., and one sister, Dottie M, all of
whom reside in Barton Funeral SER

WAS IRON DUKES DAIRY MAID
Woman Ninety-eieht Years Old Has
No Trouble in Reading News
paper Without Glasses.

January was the ninety-eighth
anniversary of the birth Of the dairy
maid of the great duke of Yelling
ton, states the London Chronicle.
This interesting link with the iron
duke is Mrs. Applin, who, far 6S
years has lived under the shadow of
Stratfeldsaye house, near Reading,
the gift of the nation to the victor
of Waterloo.
Mrs. Applin is the only surviving
servant of the first duke, whom she
often saw. Considering her great
age she is remarkably free of infrm-
ity. She still reads her daily news
paper regularly, without the aid of
glasses, and chats freely and intelli-
gently of past and current events.
She recalls incidents of her early
girlhood, which she spent in Devon
shire, and remembers buying best
joints of beef at seven cents a pound.
On the other hand, she remembers
paying one shilling and one shilling
two pence a pound for loaf sugar,
and one-half penny each for potatoes.
As dairy maid she served the first
duke of Wellington for seven years
and the second and third dukes for
80 years, being pensioned 20 years
ago. One of her neighbors is Mr..
who was coachman to the Sec
ond, third and fourth dukes, and is
now in his ninety-second year.

Testimony like this cannot be ignored,

attacks became more severe. Headaches
and dizzy spells bothered me and also
had trouble from the kidney secretions.
Being urged by friend to try Doan's
Kidney Pills, got some at Cheney's
drug store. Two boxes removed the
pain freed me from kidney complaint"
OVER TWO YEARS LATER. Mrs.

NEW CENTER OF FUR TRADE
Worlds Business Is Now Being Trans
acted With New York as Recog-
nized Headquarters.

The United States is becoming the
leader in SO many things that the
fact that the commercial capital of
America, New York, has become the
center of the worlds fur business
has not attracted much public no.
tice.
A great deal has been written and
spoken by eminent financiers on the
subject of the United States becom-
ing the worlds banker. Attention
was called to the fact that the fur
market of the world has been shift
ed to New York by news of a great
fur auction when furs to the value
of about $1,500,00O were sold to
buyers from Denmark, France, Eng
land, Canada, and, within the United
States, from st. Louis, Chicago, De-
troit, Milwaukee and most of the
large cities of the Union. During
the auction about $4,000 skins, rep
resenting about all commercial fur
bearing animals, were sold. Other
fur auctions will be held next March,
June and October, and experts, max
ing their calculation on the basis of
the late auction, say that the value
of the furs sold and to be sold at the
1916 auctions will be about $8,00O,-
600. London heretofore has been
the worlds center of the fur business,
but experts in the trade say that New
York is now the fur-trade center.
and that it will hold its primacy.
