HowsoN, Wingham, This community aastains a severe loss in the demise of Mrs. James Cnnn• ingham, which took place at the family residence, oonoession 8, East Wawanosh, on Friday last. The deceased, whose maiden name was Mysie R. Brune, was born in the township of Blenheim, County of Oxford, where she spent her early years. She was married to hor now bereft husband, and they settled in Hallett in1877, removing to East Wawa - nosh about 18 years ago, where they have since resided. The late Mrs. Cunningham was highly esteemed for her many excellent qualities, and will be missed in the community. She was a faithful and consistent member of the Presbyterian Church. Besides the sorr- owing husband, there survive four'ohild- ron—three sons, John, of Hamilton; George, at home; Robert, of Vermilion, Alta,, and one daughter, Miss Lizzie, at home, for whom unbounded sympathy will be felt in their irreparable lose.

He knows that headaches, bilious attacks, indigestion, impure blood, and general debility are often promptly relieved by a good liver pill. We wish you would ,talk with your own doctor about this subject. Ask .him at the same time if he approves of Ayer's Pills. 'Do as he says. 1 C. Auer Co., Lowell, Mass.
