DEATH OP HERBERT HANDFORD.—
The cleatoh of Herbert Handford, at the
age of 21 years, 9 months and 20 days,
has cast. a gloom over the whole neigh-
borhood.' .Last fall he took a severe
cold while threshing and although he
sought help at the threshing
Sanitar-
ium this winter, he continued to grow
Z'Arse and .last Friday seccumbeil to
last enemy, death, at the residence
of Mr. Win. Down, Biddulph. Herb
Was a great favorite among the boys
and his sudden death has made it last-
ing impression on their minds, several
of them having already resolved to
meet him in the better world. A few
weeks before he died he repented of
his sins, sought and found mercy at
the foot of the cross. From that hour
he w:is reconciled to die and did all he
could for his Saviour by speaking to
his companion.s and. friends and urging
them to love and serye Him who hao.
pardoned all his sins. 'His dying testi-
mony was very bright. He sang "0
happy day thibt fixed my choice, on
thee my Saviour Ltnd my God," Lind
then said Ohl what it precious thoug,ht,
"Washed in the blood of ' the Lamb.,,
The funeral took place Sunday after-
noon, a short and impressive service
being conducted at the house by, the
Rev. S. Salton. A large concourse of
eople followed the remains through a
linding, and. cold rain storm to th
Exeter cemetery, whei e his morten rc-
mains were interred to itwait the res-
sutection of the past. The floral, tri-
butes wel.e beautiful and costly. He
le 2'. to monrn his deans° four sisters
and a host of friends, who htwe the
heartfelt sympathy of the entire com-
munity.
Seaforth: On Friday, Mr. Laird, of
Detroit, who has been visiting friends
in Seaforth and Brussels, narrowly
escaped being poisoned. He was re-
turning from Brussles to town and on
the way stopped at Sage's hotel, Wal-
ton, where some one offered him a
treat. As he is a temperate man, Mr.
Laird took a glass of pop, and drank it
off in a hurry. Placing the glass on
the bar he exclaimed " I'm poisoned."
As the doctor at Walton was away,
home remedies were given to him.
Two hours afterwards he was driven
into town and taken to the home of
his sister, Mrs. Jas. Constable, where
he is still seriously ill. His mouth,
throat and stomach are terribly burn-
ed but he will recover. The affair is a
mystery as the pop was analysed by
several medical men and found to be
harmless. How the alkali found its
way to the hotel is ft problem.

COme to the surface in the spring ns
in no other season. It's a pity they
don'trun theinselyee all off that way;
but in spite of pimples and other crop -
tions, the mostly remain in the sys-
tem. That's bad.
Hood's Sarsaperillit removes them
and cores all the painftil and disfigur-
ing troubles they cause. Nollung

the complexion like Hoods's
dismissing the appeal from the elec- •
Lion court with costs. Hon. Mr. Gar -
row is therefore unseated. The deci-
siou of the election comt was given
principally cm account of the acts of
one Vanstone, and it was sought to
prove that he was not an agent.
There must be it new election, as the
trial judges ordered nearly .1 year
ago, and the unseated Minister with-
out portfolio must pay the costs of the
unsuccessful appeal.
March and the Lion.
Sozuething, Better Than the Old SaW•
The saying about the lion and the
lamb in March often proves false, but
but there is another and a better one
which is literally true. When March
conies in and finds you taking Hood's
Sarsaparilla to purify, enrich and
vitalize your blood, you may expect,
when it goes but, that it will leave
you free from that tired feeling and
with none of the boils, pimples and
eruptions which menifest themselves
because of impure blood in the spring.
If you have uot already begun taking
Hood's Sarsap trill,i for your spring
medicine, we advise you to begin to-
day. We assure you it will make you
feel better all through the coming
summel.
LIVED OVER A CENTURY.
Cornelius Kennedy, the oldest man
in this western district, died at the
residence of his son, 111r. John Ken-
nedy, West Nissouvi, 00 Tuesday. Mr.
Kennedy had reached the remarkable
age of 104 years, having, been born on
April 18, 1797. He was a native of Ire-
land, his birthplace being near the
celebrat(al Killerney Lakes, and came
to Canada in 1317. The family Best
settled in \Vest Zorra, but about thirty
years ago 111.1... Kennedy moved to West
Nissouri, wheee he has since lived.
His wife died over a quarter of a cen-
tury ago. The, family livingbconsists
of one son and two daughters. The
son, Mr. John Kennedy, lives on the
old homestead. The daughters are
Mrs. Kane, Gore of Downie, and Mrs.
Patton, of Cedardale, Mich. Mr. 'Ken-
nedy had only been ill it short time,
and until last illness was able to read
his newspaper without glasses. He
was wonderfully alert ,and.,sinart for
his years. If, :Ls sornelargue, the uSe
of tobacco helps to weaken it man's
vitality, one cannot but wonder to
what length of clays this venerablp old
gentlemen would have reached had he
not used tobacco all his life.

aub jaw, and both. arms were broken.
This evening he is still alive, but lit
Ile hope of recovery is entertained.

Did you ever have that

but couldn't I It's easy with Vapod,
Cresolene, for you breathe it. There's
nothing in the world equal to it for
stopping these tickling coughs; and
it's so pleasant, too. For.astlinia,

remedy. 10
