Obituary.
Sarah Jane Bruner was born in Wabash county, December 6, 1843, died* June 18th, 1913, at the home of her J. F. Bruner, in Rensselaer, Ind. Her age was 69 years, 6 months and 12 days. She was married to Asa Tyler November 28, 1861, and in 1866 they came to Jasper county and settled in Keener township, where she lived until her death Four sons were bom to this union, two of them surviving her, William C. Tyler, of Indiana Harbor, and Joseph L Tyler, of Chicago. John Franklin, the youngest son, died January 18, 1902, and Jesse I. July 18, 1909. Other surviving relatives are, one brother, J. F. Bruner, of Rensselaer; one sister, Mrs. Mary Troxell, of DeMotte; and six grandchildren. At the death of the wife of Jesse, Mrs. Tyler took into her home and heart the two children left, Josie and Herbert, and for several years cared for them as her own. After the death of her husband, which took place May 13, 1912, and the breaking up of her home, her health began to fail and for several months before her death She was quite poorly. She had been visiting her sons in Chicago and returned here on Decoration Day, when she began to fail rapidly. She was taken to Rensselaer for medical attendance, but soon passed away. In the passing of Mrs. .Tyler DeMotte loses pne of Its highly respected citizens Her body was brought to DeMotte Friday morning and the funeral held in the M. E. church at 2 o’clock, conducted toy Rev’ C. E. Downey, of Roselawn. She was interred in DeMotte cemetery by the side of her husband. “She rests from her labors, and her work doth follow her.”
Tribute to Aunt Jane.
Mrs. Tyler was one of the pioneer women of this community, of quiet, almost Quakerish ways in dress and manners. She was not a modern Mary, to sit at the feet of learning, then go forth to astonish the world wdth new ideas. No! Aunt Jane would never have been a suffragette. She was one of the patient serving Martha’s. We, too, echo the words of Billy Sunday, who says he hates to think of the world without the Martha’s. Her toil-worn hands dispensed cheer to all who came, whatever race or creed. Always of retiring manner, the nearest she ever came to publicity was when she used to lead the singling at religious gatherings in the little old log school house, before the days of church organs or trained voices. She had a sweet voice, which reached the heart seldom attained by years of cultured training. Such lives as hers leave their imprint where they are spent, and it will be years before Aunt Jane and Uncle Asa are forgotten in this community. Mrs. E. M. FAIRCHILD.

Gasoline or wood alcohol will supply the heat and motive power is furnished by means of a belt, operated by a treadle, as in a sewing machine. The fuel is supplied from a tank that rises at one side of the machine, the flow from which is regulated by a stop cock. When the burners are lighted and the apparatus heated, all tflte" laundress need do Is to stand in front of the machine and feed the linen into It, pressing the treadle from time to time, being relieved of the labor pf bearing down on an Iron and changing It for another every few minutes, as it loses Its heat. —Newark Call.
Japanese Women Divers.
The pearl divers of Japan are the women. Along the coast of the bay of Ago and the bay of Kokasho the thirteen and four-year-old girls, after they have finished their primary school work, go to sea and learn to dive. They are in the water and learn to swim almost from babyhood and they spend most of their time in toe water, except in the coldest season, from the end of December to the beginning of February. - Even during the most inclement of seasons they sometimes dive for pearls. They wear a special dress, white underwear and the hair twißted up into a hard knot. The eyes are protected by glasses to prevent the entrance of water. Tubs are suspended from toe waist A boat in command of a man is assigned to eVery five or ten women divers to carry them to and from the fishing grounds. When the divers arrive on the grounds they leap into the water at once and begin to gather oysters at the bottom. The oysters are dropped into tubs suspended from their waists. When these vessels are filled the divers are raised to the surface and jump into the boats. They dive to a depth of from five to thirty fathoms without any special apparatus and retain their breath from .one to three minutes. Their ages vary from thirteen to forty years and between twen-ty-five and thirty-five they are at their prime.

No, I don’t want two pounds and three-quarters; it will be just right if you cut out that large bone. That wfll do, thank you. This dime le smooth. I gave you perfectly good money and you may give me good money in change. That’s better, thank yon. Will you open toe door, pleese?” And when the batcher recovered he said to himself,; “Well, I suppose it does a man good ;to get what’s comItag to him once In) a while.”—Buffalo Sipreea. /

The “Long” Sitzes.
The Sltze family was long in person, long-drawn-out in speech, and etern all long about doing things. Over miles of plnd hills they were known as the “long” Sitzes. Miss Lydia, the eldest, went to a crossroads store to buy Christmas preo ents. In ths course of a half-hour she became Interested in some blue and scarlet petticoats. ‘Til take one of these petticoats,’* she said, slowly counting out ths price. H The busy proprietor wrapped up the parcel and handed It over with a polite “Something else?” "I’ll take another petticoat”. Ha did np a seoond bundle, took her carefully counted money, and was turning to the next Impatient customer. “TO take another petticoat,” came the slow drawl This went on to the seventh time. The man, being up to his ears in work, ventured a question: "Buying for the neighborhood, Miss Lydia?” Tm buying two apiece lor my sto ters.” “How many sisters have you?” “Nine.”
Soldiers on Skates.
In the Norwegian Army there is • corps of Infantry which can cover n distance of eighty miles in a day's march. This extraordinary record, which equals the performances of toe beetrtralned cavalry in Europe, le only possible because every man In toe oorpe Is a highly trained skater and when} In marching trim Is provided with a specially constructed pair of skates. The oorps can be manoeuvred with extraordinary rapidity. The heels of the skates are so shaped as to enable the men to spin round as If on a phut at the word of command. As a wiftCto l - of fact, they can perform “right about face” far more quickly di«n any crack regiment of infantry. The evolutions of the naturally confined to the great nrods which Indent the coaßt of Norway and during the long winter season are trosen solidly over.

"Girls Who Pay For Their Husbands”
Couldn't Lose Him.
To Illustrate Yankee persistency 3. Plerpont Morgan told the following ■tory to The Cincinnati Commerical frUmme the other day;
“A New England Yankee, who waa a prisoner on a pirate ship,' 1, said Mr. Morgan, “in the good old days when pirates roamed the seas, became, because of his Yankee attributes, oblectlonable to his captors. "It was finally decided to maroon h»m on a desert Island, with but little food anrf a coffin to remind him of his inevitable fate. The island was found and the New Englander and were left alone on the beach while the pirate ship sailed awsy. “For several days she sailed and then became becalmed. For three days she laid there with not a breath of air. On the * evening of the third day a black speck was noticed on the horizon. It steadily grew larger, and ioon was dose enough for the men on the ship to make out what It was." The of millions paused for an Instant and then said, smilingly; “It was the Yankee in his coffin, with half of the lid in either hand, rowing for home." •

The house stood opposite a cemetery at the outskirts of town,' indi Moore wished, as he pulled aside the crape to ring the belt that hla city editor wouldn’t be so fertile with his Ideas of human Interest stories. A woman friend of the aged sisters opened the door and ushered J. Hampton Into the parlor, ever In one corner of which rested the dead sister In her coffin. The neighbor seemed to feel that It was up to her to entertain the reporter while he was waiting for the other sister to drag herself In for the Interview. By way of small talk, the woman motioned with her thumb in the direction of the coffin and remarked: "That’s the lady that died." T suspected as much,” replied Moore.
