iel Eilean Bissett pasSed away at the
home Of her grandparents, Mr. and

who was in her 19th year, was a
daughter of the late Isaac R. and
Charlotte Bissett. She was an at-
tractive young lady of a quiet and
retiring disposition and was beloved
by all who luiew her. For some
time she resided with her uncle and
aunt, Mr. and Mts. E. Erwin, of Lon-
don, She was taken ill while visit-
ing here at Easter time. Besides her
grandparents she is survived by one
sister, Marion, younger than site. The
funeral was held Wednesday after-
noon at the Trivitt Mentorial church
cOndacted bY the Rector, Rev, A. A.
Trutnper. The bet eA:creet will have
the sympathy of many friencha.
If at the age of thirty or forty you,
say that you can "see almost as good
as ever,” it is tune you Should sub-
mit to an eye -examination. When
vision mechanism begins to weaken
and perform its functions in an im-
perfect manner, your condttion calls
for an immediate remedy. We will
specify the lenses that you need,
make and mount them for you at a•
Satisfactory price.
