me. 605-607 Commercial Tells of Civil War Days. "When I married Joshua Evllsizer, at the age 20 In 1862," said Mrs. Mary Evilslzer, 714 Merchant, "we went to housekeeping with mighty table, a lew chairs, a bedstead, with bedding I had made be- iore my marriage, and a fireplace in which to do my cooking. How 1 hated that I had come from a home of affluence, and I might have made a fuss about having to cook in so primitive a way, but I I learned to cook in that fireplace my husband's mother taught me how.

It was back-breaking work. But never once, during our years of getting along without most of the household furnishings considered essential now, never once did I threaten to sue for a dlvorca, because I 'couldn't have things like other "Men cut cordwood for 50 cents a day, then, and jobs were not so scarce as now, but everyone was willing to work for a low wage. I was living in Nashville, 111., when a Missouri soldier, discharged for disability owing to a wound received in battle, came there to visit kin. We met, and in a short time we were married. We lived a months with my husband's parents, then moved to ourselves.

In 1870. with our three children, we crossed a part of Kansas In a covered wagon with a mule team, looking for a location. We made the mistake of getting on the Indian Reserve on the Big Caney, and were not allowed to stay on the claim we liad selected, not knowing it was part of the Reserve. The Indians ran us off, and we returned to our old home near Richmond. Mo.

Later, we lived Butler, and 12 years ago I came to Emporia to live with my daughters. We are three widows together." Mrs. Evilsizer was Mary McBride before her marriage, and was born in Chicago in 1842. Speaking of the Civil war, she says the unrest following It was not nearly so great as has followed the World war. The men mostly, she says, were content to come home and settle down to fanning.

Her father, as well as her husband was a soldier, and they lived In a section of Missouri infested by bushwhackers. Her mother rode all one night, 25 miles to Chillicothe. to take her father to rejoin his company, after he had been home for a visit. He had to keep out of sight of the bushwhackers. Their neighbors were largely Confederate sympathizers, and one day her father was sitting beside one of these neighbors, when a stranger carrying a rope approached, and Inquired for a man named McBride.

They wanted him, the stranger said, because he was reported to be spy, and they were going to hang him with the rope he carried. The nelshbor said he had no idea where McBride could be found, and the would-be hangman went on his way. "Most of the Confederates were good neighbors, and kind to us, and that one saved my father's life. The oushwhackers made most of our trouble." says Mrs. Evilsizer.

Mrs. Evilsizer has five daughters: Mrs. Ella Hutchinson and Mrs. Jpn- n'c Foster, with whom she lives; Mrs. H.

R. Klinkt-nbiard, Nevada, Mrs. George Jenkins. Los Angeles, and Mrs. J.

E. Henderson, Debeque. Colo. Her only son Is dead. She has 15 trrandchlldren and 10 (treat-grandchildren.

Mrs. Evilslzer's health is good, but her rieht arm was seriously Injured several years ago, and she can use it but little. But with her good left arm and a vacuum cleaner she can, and dots, sweep the entire house, and dusts It as well. She enjoys walking, likes to get out in the sunshine. when she sees weeds in the flowerbeds she pulls them.

She enjoys belnd active and useful. Her mind is even more activo than her body, but holding a book or newspaper tires her, so her daughters read to her every day. Her favorite literature is love stories, and she remembers much of what is read lo her. They read at last two library books each week. Mr.
