Recent Deaths
RECENT DEATHS.
On Friday morning, April 21, Miss
Gussie Irvin passed away at the home
of her parents on Olive street. De-
ceased was a daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
James F. Irvin, and was born in this
place 19 years ago. She had for some
months been a suffered from tubercu-
losis of the kidneys*and underwent a
serious operation in January which
seemed for a time to have been suc-
cessful. About six weeks ago, how-
ever, she suffered a relapse and al-
though everything that medical skill
and careful nursing could do was
done, she grew gradually weaker
until the end came. She was a young
lady of beautiful character, with a
sunny disposition and her loss will be
keenly felt by a host of young people,
among whom she was very popular.
Early in life she became a member of
the Methodist Episcopal church and
she left to her loved ones the testi-
mony of the dying Christian. She
is survived by her father and mother
and the following brothers and sisters:
Edgar of Boyer, W. Va.,Paul of Wat-
sontown, Helen of Wayne, Claude and
Fay at home. One sister, Alice, pre-
ceded her ‘to the spirit world several
vears ago. The fueral took place
from her late home on Sunday morn-
ing, Rev. Frank Ruch officiating. In-
terment was made in the Union ceme-
tery at Bellefonte. The funeral was
largely attended and the beautiful
floral offerings were a slight token of
the esteem in which she was held.
Calm on the bosom of thy God,
Fair spirit, rest thee now!
E’en while with us thy footsteps trod,
His seal was on thy brow.
Lone are the paths, and sad the
bowers, ;
Whence thy meek smile is gone;
But, O, a brighter home than ours,
In heaven is now thine own.
Theophilus Pletcher.
At 4:30 o'clock on Sunday afternoon,
April 17, death claimed as its vietim
Theophilus Pletcher of Howard. He
had been ill for over a year. Mr.
Pletcher was a school teacher and far-
mer and has spent the greater part of
his life in the vicinity of Howard. His
home was on a farm about one mile
west of Howard... Many friends
mourn his death. Surviving are his
widow and one daughter, Miss Tacy,
living at home, and two brothers and
one sister, Rudolph and Wm. T.
Pletcher and Mrs. Thos. Daughenb-
auugh, all residing near Howard. The
funeral was held on Tuesday at 1:30
o'clock, interment in the Schenck cem-
etery.
Richard Fowler.
A very sad death occurred at
Blanchard on Friday, April 15, when
Richard Fowler, a young man of 21
vears, died from that dreadful dis-
ease, lockjaw, brought on by convul-
sions. His illness lasted but forty-
eight hours. While dressing himself
on Wednesday morning, he became
suddenly ill. In a short time he was
seized with convulsions, his brain be-
came affected, and he lapsed into un-
consciousness, from which he never
rallied. Physicians worked with him
for some time but were unable to save
his life. About 6 o'clock on Friday
morning he died. The young man is
Mrs. Ruth Strunk of Howard, and one
brother, James Fowler, residing at
home. The funeral was held on Sun-
at: the Baptist cemetery, ‘at Blanch-
ard. ren
furnaces have received the
water and pipe clap.

fied with industrial interests at that
place, was found dead in bed on Wed-
nesday morning. He was a son of
the late Vincent B. Holt, and iz sur-
vived by one sister, Mrs. Sara A.

HINTS. :
To remove paint spots from cloth-
ing, saturate with equal parts of tur-
pentine and snirits of ammonia.
Oil marks from wall paper may be
removed by applying a paste of cold
T.eave it on ov-
er night and brush off in the morn-
ing.
Mildew may be removed by moist:
ening the spot with clean water; rub
on it a thick coating of castile soap
mixed with scraping of chalk. Rub
with the end of finger and then wash
off.
To remove grease from silk take a
lump of magnesia and rub it wet on
the spot, let dry and then brush off.
To wash silk lamp or electric light
shades make a nice lather with warm
water and soap, and well shake about
in water. When the dirt is out, rinse
well in clear cold water and hang in
the open air to dry. When nearly
dry, press the frills and lace with
fairly hot iron, when shades will look
almost equal to new.
Remove and wash cover of a dis-
carded mattress and slip cover over
a -good mattress and sew up the op-
ening. This not only saves buying
new cloth, but saves the labor of mak-
ing new cover and looks very tidy.
To cure a soft corn between the
toes, keep powdered chalk on it un-
til it disappears. It must be lump
chalk such as the carpenters use, not
school crayon chalk.
Put a piece of old-fashioned brown
paper over stain and press with hot
iron; when you remove paper stain
will remove with it.
Take 1-2 cup of salt, dampen and
sprinkle on carpet or rug. The dust
will adhere to the salt and the carpet
will be brighter.
Empty feathers from corner of tick,
ripped, into four or five squares of
cheese cloth or thin cotton, make
warm suds, wash well the filled cloths
of feathers and rinse well; dry in
open air (spring time best), not in
sun: wash tick, replace feathers.
It is a good idea to keep a dozen
or so cheese cloth pillow cases in the
linen closet. After ‘being used in a
contagious disease they may be burn- {
ed.
A little vinegar mixed with cake
frosting will keep it from becoming
too grainy and will make it smooth.
ft improves the frosting by killing
the oversweet taste as well
Just closed, the Yarmouth and
Lowestoft herring season has yielded
800,000,000 herrings, which sold for
$5,000,000.
ALMOND SOUP.
A quarter pound of sweet almonds,
pints milk, quarter pint cream, one
teaspoonful whole white peppers, one
heaping tablespoonful butter, quarter
ounce of bitter almonds, one onion,
one and a half pints white vegetable
stock, one teaspoonful salt and one
tablespoonful of flour.
Blanch and pound the almonds, then
boil them for one hour in the
stock with the peppers, onion and
celery, cut into small pieces; rub
through a sieve.
Heat the butter in a saucepan, stir
in the flour, mix till smooth, gradually
add the milk and stir, boil five min-
utes, then add stock and salt. Re:
heat. Put the cream into a tureen
and add the soup to it. Serve at
once.—New York Press.
Says the St. Louis Republic: If Can-
ada has more miles of railroad per
capita of population than we have, it
may also be remembered that she has
more acres of unoccupied land to the
mile of railroad.
