Lamps *f Early Day* ' la'the earlier period, before J78S, laciJ^s in; this: country were mostly of iron. They were crude saucers, In which the wick lay at an angle, either on a -little support or directly on the edge of the TOssel. Some of tWse, called betty lamps by collectors, were oval, or pear-shaped; bad hooks to suspend them above the fireplace and were equipped with supports for the wicks to prevent them from dripping grease outside the lamp. , M Moroccan Str«.t. Well Named Streets of the bazaars In F«, Morocco, are named curiously but somewhat wisely. For instance, the Souk El Attarine is the Street of Perfume Sellers; Souk El Khiyatine proclaims It the Street of the Tailors.

In the year of 1900 she again became a widow by the death of Benedict Aicher, after which time the deceased [lived for a good many yean in Washburn -- well known and much beloved as the kindhearted Grandmother Aicher. "In the later years she made her home with her daughter, Lena Engel and family near Washburn, After w's death in 1935, she made her home with her son, Dr. Frank Aicher and wife in McHenry, 111.

Her kindliness and cheeriylness made her many friends where ever 3he went. She has passed from life's cares but her sweet ministries which have risen out of her length of years, remain. There was the ministry of her patience. No one ever came within her presence who was not touched and blessed by it. There was the ministry of her courage. Many found strength "to endure their own trials when they •saw her fortitude. There was the ministry of her radiant faith, joyful trust, and good cheer. Her life was a sweet fragrance which cannot be lost. It abides to cheer and make hopeful. *®y the side of those who named her 'friend' She chose the way of ministry that bears Th* footprints of the Master; through the years She walked untiring to the end." "Beneath her noble qualities of character lies a secret, the key to which •he found in her Bible. ^The memory of her faithfulness to the church, her interest in its activities, her kindly personality, and her friendly greeting Will ever be an inspiration to all. To her loved ones we extend our sincere sympathy and commend them to God's unfailing comfort, for to each one, we know that today her sweet, radiant spirit "beckons as a itar from the land where the immortals are." Her life is now beyond the reach of death or change; not ended but begun; oh, noble soul; oh, gentle heart, goodbye, but not farewell.
