Laura Lnella Ingalls WM born Sept. 6, 1871, and entered into rest June 19, 1908, aged 36 years, B months and, 18 days. She was the daughter of Charles H. and Mary Conrad Stephenson, and was born on a farm near Ringwood, Al­ most her entire life has been passed in this village and she received her ednca tion in our public school. She was the eldest of seven children, and from early childhood her life has held many dnties and cires. Nov 7, 1889, she was married to Ernest H. Ingalls and began honse keeping in Ringwood. This has been her home since, except for a few years spent in Elgin, 111. A year ago her health failed her, and since that time she has been a constant snfferer, slowly fading away until the end came as a sweet release from pain. Her schoolmates will remember her as a bright, happy girl who enjoyed to the utmost the pleasures of school life. She had a kind and loving heart and was ever willing to lend a helping hand in the home of sickness and trouble. She had a quick, intelligent mind, was fond of books and music, and had an unusual love for beautiful things in art and nature. She was refined by nature and attractive in person. She was f faithful wife, a loving mother and oon stant friend. She will be missed, not only in her home, but by her neighbors and life long friends whom she loved and cherished. She had been a member of the Uni- versalist church in Riugwood for five years, and was a constant and helpful member' when her health permitted. There are left to mourn her early death, her husband and only child, Edith; her father and only brother, Henrv M. Stephenson, and a large circle of relatives and friends. Everything possible was done to stay the band of the destroying angel, but in vain, and with sad hearts we must leave her in her last resting {dace. liesl. <loiir one, I11 thy lonely bed.

I have never been, so sick as to be compelled to take to my bed because of it, and yet, especially after contracting colds, it was so irksome and sometimes painful, that I have been unable to give that attention to my business that it re­ quired. From time to time during these years I have resorted to every means that I knew of to relieve myself of this trouble. I have visited th^ Hot Springs in Arkan­ sas, Mt. Clemens in Michigan, West Baden in Orange county, Ind., and Atti­ ca Springs in Aitica, |nd., more than once for relief, but never derived if permanent relief from any. I have also been to Colorado as well as to numerous springs in Virginia without getting the relief I sought for. Some time since Prof. Leach visited me at my home, and like many others I was Skeptical as to his possessing .the magnetic healing powers which he claimed. Prior to this time I had been massaged and manipulated by three or four different masseurs and persons claiming to possess magnetic powers who resided in Chicago. However, after three weeks' treat­ ment from Prof. Leach, I was very mnch relieved and believe that I derived more benefit from him than from all the other persons and resorts above men­ tioned, combined. I can honestly recommend him to those suffering from ills like to the one I labored under or similar ones. I have no doubt that bis treatment will prove efficacious in moat if not all such diffi­ culties. Very respectfully, . M. T. Moloney. EMKRALD PARK. R. E.
