TRIBUTE THAT WILL ENDURE
President LincoIn's Immortal Letter to Mother Who Had Lost Her Four
 Sons in Battle.

Among the stories of the war in Flu rope there are several which tell of mothers who have lost all their sons in battle One story is that of wom- an of France whose three sons went to the front, two of them to meet death almost instantly and the third to die almost before the sound of taps had died away from over the graves of his brothers Always in war from all countries engaged there are these stories of the mothers sacIi Iifices.
 It is not an unusual thing to find all the sons of a family at the front at the time of their country's need. It is unusual that all should meet death, and when this occurs the pathos and the human interest of the happening bring instant attention. 1t is certain that in the present war, with its ap- palling casualty list, there will be mothers of every country engaged who will find themselves left alone. Not One-haf of the pain of war is on the battle line.
 It was . Massachusetts mother whose four sons wore killed in one battle of the Civil war. A letter which Abraham Lincoln wrote to this mother who gave her four cons to death Is monument which will be as lasting as any which a nation could provide. It is said that copy of Lincoln's letter hangs on the wall of an English uni versify, and that underneath it is writ ten the word of great Engkshman that it is perhaps the finest example of letter writing in existence. A mother gives up her children to her country. No tribute even from the pen of Lincoln can make full pay ment for the gift.

Just Breathe Hyomei Four Times Day
and Be Relieved.
If few years ago some one had
sid you could treat catarrh by
rreathing air charged with a healing
oa,sam, the idea would have been
rid culed and it remained !for that
nent Investigator, r. I. Booth, to
discover in Hyomei this wonderful
M bod of treatment.
Hyomei has performed almost
mi, aculous results in treating catarrh
and is today recognized by thousands
of people as the only advertised
re medy for ca.arrh that can be re-
tied upon to do just what it claims
The complete outfit of Hyomei is
inexpensive ard consists of an inha.
Ter. medicine dropper and bottle
of Hoomei.
Breathe the air of Hyomei through
the little inhaler druggists furnish
with it fer few minutes four times
a day and it will help the worst case
of catarrh. 1t soothes and heals the
mucous membrane of the air passages
prevents irritation, and effects COM
plete and lasting relief.
In Barton there are scores Of we'll
known people who have been relieved
of catarrh by Hyomei. If it does not
help you F. D. Pierce will return the
money you paid for Hyemei. This.ie
the strongest evidence that can be
offered as to their faith in this remedy.

TEST FOODS.
Many Household Staples Found to BE
Aduiterated

Many Household Staples Found to Be
Aduiterated.
Housewives ought to have bit Of
many kinds of knowledge. The per-
feet housewife must not only have
a thorough knowledge of the cuisine,
but she must also be an excellent
business woman and know how to ap-
ply business methods to her home She
must have a practical acquaintance
with chemistry and biology and must
have the art Of making a house into
a home.
Just at present the women in the
home need another kind of knowledge
which will prove invaluable to them
at many a time That is how to know
if their food is adulterated. There are,
unfortunately, frauds in every line of
work, and the food frauds always
seize upon such occasions as the pres
ent, when the authorities are busy
elsewhere, to perpetrate the worst
crimes against the community. Prob
ably foodstuffs all over will be adul-
terated and the wise housewife will
learn how to detect the presence of
foreign elements in the provisions she
buys.
Butter is one of the first to suffer
Margarine has often been used as d
substitute in the past and probably
will be passed off many times in the
future. While margarine is perfectly
wholesome, still no woman wants to
pay the price of butter for the less
costly margarine. A reliable test is
melt little bit in a spoon over a gas
burner. Good butter froths a great
deal, but makes very little noise Mar
garlne, on the contrary, crackles and
bursts and makes little explosive
sounds. After applying this test YOU
can refuse to buy again at the same
shop if you detect the presence of mar
garine in the substance which ysu
bought as butter.
The easiest and commonest food ia
adulterate is milk. Watered milk is al
| most as common as plain water, but Il
Is SO easy to discover the fraud thai

MRS. FRANK J. FAUFAW.

On the morning of Jan. S. at her
home in Holland, Mrs. Frank j. Eau
faw entered into eternal rest. She
was Sarah M. Horn, daughter of
Reuben and Ruhanna (Richardson)
Horn, and was born in Glen Sutton,
Que, April 3, 1874, and was therefore
less than AZ years old. On April 6,
1892, she was married at Richford to
Frank J. Faufaw of that place. To
them was born one son, Ray, who with
the husband survive. After a few
years MIR. and Mrs. Faufaw came to
Holland and later moved to this villae e
where they lived several years. Upon
removing to Holland they bought a
small place and Mr.. Faufaw, who is a
carpenter, erected a nice house, where
they have taken much comfort. Mrs.
| Faufaw had trouble with one side for
several years and a year ago this
month it became necessary to undergo
an operation. She went to Montreal,
where sixty gall stones were removed,
| and a tumOr of cancerOuS nature, on
her liver was so bad it was thought
unsafe to remove. Since coming home
she was very well at times and as late
as last tall she went TO Springfield,
Mass, to visit relatives. 1t was while
there that she learned how serious her
trouble and how long she would prob
| ably live. The last two weeks her
suffering was intense. The family
and friends have done everything pos
sble to make her illness brighter for
her, and she sincerely appreciated the
letters, cards, plants, cut flowers,
fruit. dainty food and numerous gifts
she received, for scarcely day passed
that she did not receive something.
She was fortunate in having her
mother.in-law, Mrs Sarepta Faufaw,
with her, and Mrs. Faufaw will keep
the home for her son and grandson.
She was one who Thoroughly enjoyed
life, one who would never be old in
reality and it seems very sad that she
must be taken away so young in years.
During all her illness no one hs S
heard her complsin. even when talking
of the necessity of leaving this worlo.

the bright side, if one seemed possible F.,

possessed of great determination not
to give up until the at. il has been a
