IBM Such, in the briefest possible phrasea, is the merest outline of a beneficent life, which like all serious life ex pressed itself in the utmost simplicity. She waa early prepared for a useful and successful life by graduation from the Bennett Medical College of Illinois (Eclectic School ) She joined the church (Christian) at an early age, and was always true to her convictiona. Her vigorous intellectual life expressed itself in many articles for papers and magazines, each bearing the stamp of her own strength and individuality. Her physical powers did not begin to decay until abcut two yeara ago. Her mind was bright to the last. The happiest period of her life seemed to be the last quarter-century lap in the home of her daughter, with her grand children, John, Bert and Ina, (Mrs. Defoe.) Bert was her almost con atant companion during the laat year, who was with her when the end came. The address at her burial waa de livered by her old friend, Rev. B. I. Milligan, ably aasisted by Rev. Philip Koenig of the Congregational church.

This they agreed to do and just as the big gasoline engine was slowing down for the noon stop a casting on It gave way. This, of course, put a stop to all further work until reparirs were nniile. i r . 1 1 ii mi 1 1 v it would have Mass i essary to wait until the following mi. ruing for a tisin, then take the broken part to Stockton and have It welded and wait until the next morn ing for a train home. Tina method would have caused a delay of exactly two days during which time the farmer would hare been forced to pay his entire crew full time all of which would have been a dead loas. Tbompaon thought this a good op portunity to make a practical demons tratlon so suggested that the casting be loaded into the tonneau of the little Hoick and that they then drive to Stockton, have lunch there while the part was belug repaired by tbe electric welding process and return to tbe ranch in the afternoon. This plan was put Into execution. Tbe 41) mile drive was made in one boor and twelve minutes, forty five mlnnteN wen. consumed by lunch and the welding prooea and tbe return trip was made In one hour and eight minutes. This brought tbe little Bulo back to its atartlng point in exactly 8 boura and Hfteeo mlnutea Thompson states that while the engineer waa busy securing tbe re i.Hii.'ii lint to the tractor, the ranch man was buy writing out a check for a duplicate of the oar which had just saved him so much time and money and hia partiug salute waa "Now hurry that little Bulok right out bare, aa I cannot afford to be without it another day."
