She had suffered three strokes of nnrnlveis during thp nast two months and for several weeks had been practically helpless. 'She was 80 years old. iHer death occurred at the home of her son, iCol. Edward R. H. Green, at Xo. 5 West 90th street, adjoining the plain brick four-story house at Xo. 7 on the corner of Central Park West, where Mrs. Green had lived lately in j seclusion, except for her son and several Japanese servants and trained nurses. For several weeks past Mrs. Green had been unable to walk and had spent practically all of her time in a wheel chair. iHer son, Col. Green, and her daugh- j ter, Mrs. Matthew Astor Wilkes, who ! were the only children, had been with her much of the time. It recently was reported that Mrs. Green had turned over all of her financial affairs to her son's charge. I Wall street's estimates of <Mrs. Green's fortune range from $20,000,000 to $100,000,000. Officials of the Chemical iXational bank, in which Mrs. Green once made her downtown headquarters, declined to hazard a guess concerning the size of her estate. Until a few years ago Mrs. Green was a familiar figure in the financial district, but latterly her appearonce there had been very infrequent. It is believed that a considerable part of her money was invested in first mort gage and high class railroad bonds,] although she was said at one time to , have large sums invested in shares of the smaller Southern and Southwestern railroads, including several in whicli her son was actively identified. Mrs. Green also was the reputed owner of large tracts of land in Texas, Alabama and other Southern States, but it is believed that she sold the last of tuese noiamgs a iew years ago. Hettie Green was the world's most remarkable mistress of finance. The fortune she has left is close to $100,000,000. The richest woman in America, she lived almost as frugally as a shop girl. Her home was wherever she chose for a time to hang her little black cape and bonnet, often in the hall bedroom of some cheap boarding house, or in some remote and modest flat around New York.

In I860 she inherited some $10,000,000 which accumulated upon itself until in 50 yeafs it had multiplied nearly ten times. iShe also inherited family traditions which had been a pride for three centuries, and which she was anxious to nernetuate in her children. She was born at iNew Bedford, Mass., "in November, 1834, about the 20th," according to her testimony at one time in court. She was a descendant on her mother's side of 'Henry Howland, brother of Pilgrim John Howland of the Mayflower.

I have not had a single failure reported to me last season where home grown seed were sown. I have had many failures reported where imported seed were sown.

Sometimes there is a surprise in the motor car industry that is funny only to a very few. Often the surprise is perpetrated to me cnagrin 01 some particular person But the Maxwell Motor Company seems to have sprung a surprise and yet to have made a really enjoyable bit of pleasure out of it for all concerned. During the months just previous to the company's 1917 announcement, there was a continual flood of letters into the offices of the Maxwell Motor Company, asking about prices for the coming season. In every letter tnere was this question: "How much will the price be raised?'* The dealers were so sure of the raise in price that they didn't thinK to consider anything else. They wanted to know what they would have to work on, how much more thev v>uuia have to get from their purchased. And also many of the wise old owls who are always to be found ready with expert opinions where motor car topics are discussed, intimated very frankly that the Maxwell Company was one of the many which would have to raise prices. Simply no other solution, the prices must go up. Then imagine the surprise when the Maxwell Company announced one of the greatest reductions in price since the establishment of the company. They couldn't believe it?it simply couldn't be true. Again the telegrams began to paur into the offices at Detroit. "What does this mean?" They wanted to believe the good news, but didn't want to get their systems all saturated with satisfaction until they could be sure the good news had been verified. They were not going to take any chances on a matter so important. "I couldn't believe it!'' wrote one dealer, "because I didn't think it possible for you to give any more value. But now that I know the new prices are right, that the good news is true, I begin to realize what the (Maxwell policy really means. Give me all the cars for territory that you can spare." miAMiiin nrAAlim HUSBAND KttUUtU DESPAIRING WIFE After Four Tears of Discouraging Conditions, Mrs. Bollock Gave Up in Despair. Husband Came to Rescue. Catron, Ky.?In an interesting letter from this place, Mrs. Bettie Bullock writes as follows: "I suffered for four years, with womanly troubles, and during this time, I could only sit up for a little while, and could not walk anywhere at all. At times, I would have severe pains in my left side. The doctor was called in, and his treatment relieved me for a while, but I was soon confined to my bed again. After that, nothing seemed to do me any good. 1 had gotten so weak 1 could not stand, and I gave up in despair.

LOW PRICES AUTO TIKES DUE MAINLY TO GOODRICH Being Largest Makers Their Influence Restrains Others From Unduly Raising Prices. Akron, 0., June 28.?In its current advertising in the newspapers The B. F. Goodrich Co., is asking motorists to help the company in holding down and even further reducing the prices in automobile tires. 15 ner cent, to 50 per cent, higher prices could well be justified for Goodrich Tires by fair comparison with other tires sold at 15 per cent, to 50 per cent, higher prices, for, states | the Company, better fabric tires than Goodrich are not made and cannot be made at any price. Low Tire Prices Encourage Motor- j ing. Inasmuch, however, as the value of owning an automobile depends on the I number of hours of actual use derived j therefrom, and as the extent of use j depends largely upon the price or gasoline and tires, the Goodrich Company believes in making it possible; for a motorist to use his car a great j deal by supplying tires at reasonable ; cost. This was one of the reasons why: in January, 1916, the Goodrich Com- ; rany inaugurated its FAIR-LIST pro-' paganda against high prices and "padded"' price-lists on tires, and why the Company continues to hold to its moderate fair-list prices to the con sumer. Restrains Others From Price "Boosting." Being by far the largest auto and truck tire makers in America, the! Goodrich influence upon the market restrains others from unduly raising tire prices to the limit, which a fastincreasing demand for tires, it is said, is sorely tempting manufacturers to charge. The statement to the public concludes: "Will you help your own in} terests (present and future) by fur ther expanding the sale of that tire which demonstrates its intention through lowering the cost of its tires to you, with every increase in volume? Will you tlius endorse and support a policy which prevents others from forcing up the market in tires?'' Goodrich Accords Liberal TreatmeiL The motorist is then asked to compare Goodrich Fair List prices and to bear in mind that no fabric tires, at anv Drice. are "better," and that no house is more fair and liberal on j proper adjustments than is The B. F. Goodrich Company. MAM IN NEWBERRY TRY SIMPLE MIXTURE Many Newberry people are surprised at the QUICK action of simple buckthorn bark, glycerine, etc., as mixed in Adler-i-ka.
