others who also loved her. Some two

will remember and still descrlbo the
beauty and piorr.lse of Prances Slsson in
her jouth. Hei homo was among tho
Ablngton hills. Hmlneiitly noble aim use
ful lives have been lived and are being
led theio still on the quiet farms but lor
her wus fancied a future abroad In tho
world. Yet time brought her no placo in
the rtalm of societj and letters. Her sue
cess was built up of "work done square
ly and unwustcd dajs" amid the labors
and limitations of futin life
What Is success foi u woman' Is It to
be to rear ten chlldien with tucless look

Intellect and heart and social graces are
kept In full exercise also, then success
crowned Mrs. Le-lphton, and abode with
her to the end. What though to accom
plish all this the mlibilght oil butneet
nnd she read while otheis .tlept? Her vl
talltj and cheerful cmiiagu roe to every
demand 1 hey overflowed In ministries
on every side. The church, the Sundaj
school the neighborhood, to all th"lr
calls she was sufficient. No night seemed
too stormy, no futlguo of her own too
great to keep Mrs l.elghton fiom a suf
fering nelghboi The nours of her day

l.elghton was a bright entertainer, and
the visitor lover to linger under the spll

She divined the moods of all who came.
The dull and despondent never lett ner
uneomforted. nor the trifle r without an
uplifting thought. "Her woist she kept,
her best she gave."
After so ni.ui Jiars of this strong life
It was dinicult for Mrs Lt-lghton to ad
mit that time wa sipping her endiiran 0.
She repelled tho suspicion Indlgnantlv,
almost. Those who loved her felt that
tho davs were come tor the aim chair,
for peace and rest. Her chlldien longed
to surround her with cai-e and observ

long lceed to effort ever to relax till
