We heard a man say the other day
that the abbreviatine for February -
Feb. -means "freeze everybody." and
that man looked frozen in his ulster.
It was apparent that he needed the
kind of warmth that stays, the
warmth that, reaches from heat to
foot, ad over the body. We could
have told him from personal know-
ledge that Tiood'e Sersapat•illa gives
permanent warmth, it invigoretes the
alood and sends it speeding along
through artery MA vein, and really
fits men and women, boys and
to enjoy cold weather and resist the
attacks of disease. It gives the right
kind of Wallah, stimulates . and
strengthens at the same time, and all
its benefits are lasting. There may
be a suggestion in this for yod,

In Loving Memory.
In loving remembrance of Mrs.
Mettle Manning, who died at the home
of her sister, ere Samuel Peart,
Guelph. Feb. 4i1, 1902.
A precious ono from us is gone,
A voice we loved is stilled;
A place is vacant in her home,
Whieh never can be filled,
God in His wisdom has reealled,
The boom His lovo,had given :
And -though the body iziouldera here,
The Soul is sate in fteaven.
Go to the grave in all thy gloricius prime ,
In full activity etyma] and power,
A Christian cannot die before her time;
The Lord's appointment is the servant's. hour,
Go to the grave ; at noon from labour cease
Re -t on thy ,heaves ; thy harvest task is done,
Cope from the heart of. battle. and M peaee,
Soldier, go honte vzitb. thee the fight is won.
