InuCn OIL the SulueSS that JLe never
even wishes to go into a Chinese
laundry again.
Mrs. Sarah Warren Lawrence,
aged 70, who died Sunday at the
home of her granddaughter. Mrs.
Albert Lyford. in Brewer. won the
right to Abe called veteran Ct the
Civil War by her services as a nurse
during that struggle on the field and
in camp. Her husband was the late
Enoch L. Lawrence and they were
married August 16. 1861. after he
had on July 2S enlisted in the
Union army. Mr.. Lawrence was a
musician and they left at once for
the front, he being attached to Co.
B. 1st Maine Heavy Artillery, fact
that alone tells that he saw service.
The company was sent directly to
the Shenandoah valley and there,
with her husband in the service, Mrs.
Lawrence. who was a strong, able
woman, felt the urge of the wounde d
and sick soldiers and offered her
services to the government as a
nurse. even as her husband but a
few weeks before, had offered his
services in the ranks of the musi-
clans. Like him, she remained a
war nurse till peace was declal ed,
serving in various field hospitals al d,
for time, in the great hospital for
the soldiers in Washington, D. c.,
where she was joined by her kus-
band when he was released from
service and came home, at the close
of the war. his discharge dating
from June &, 1865. After the lat
ter's death in April. 1899 She again
took up nursing and was familiar
figure in many homes throughout
the Bangor-Brewer section until her
health failed, about three years ago,
when she gave up Bangor. which
had always been her home. and went
to live with her granddaughter in
Brewer, and where she cndea:ed
herself to everyone who met her.
Five grandchildren survive, Mrs.
Lyford, Mrs. Harry Kenney and
Miss Alice Lawrence of Brewer.

Electrified Furniture
Will Find General
Favor

Electrical furniture, which was
ut first regarded as a radical
innovation, Is receiving the stamp
Of approval from conservative
sources. One leading furniture
manufacturer confidently predicts
that wired dining room tables,
dressing tables, tea wagons. serv-
ing stands and beds will find wide
adoption in the near future.
In the early days of the auto
mobile, self-starters were looked
upon rs ingenious but unneces-
sary accessories. Today q motor
car is not complete without one.
Wiring may well become as much
. part Of furniture as self -start-
ers are Of automobiles.
Increased usefulness, greater

are the desirable traits of cleo
trified furniture. II multiplies
