The Wingham Advance, 1906-11-15, Page 8THE WINGHAM ADVANCE - TuuRsr y, A For Clothing, Dress Goods, New, Rich and Fashionable Furs, and all lines of Ladies' and Gentlemen's seasonable Un- derwear, come direct to D, M. Gordon's. No house, no matter how much noise they make, can give better value than you will find here, and every article new and up-to-date. The new- est and best is none too good for our customers.. As usual, all lines of, pure, fresh Groceries are always in stock. D. M. Gordon forced the thought of individual re- sponsibility, from the words --"When ersonaIs thou btiildest a new house, then thou shalt make a battlement for thy roof, that thon bring not blood upon thine house, if any man fail from thence". The discourse was pointed, earnest and practical, closing with an effec- tive appeal to parents to safe -guard their homes, by building characters of the right kind. In the evening, "The Philosophy of Prayer" was the topic. It was an able discourse, and indicat- ed close, thoughtful study and pre- paration. The tuipressive services of the day closed with a brief after -ser- vice. Next Sunday Rev. W. G.

At the recent meeting of the Quart- erly Official Board of Bluevale circuit, the following was passed as a MEMORIAL. We, the members of this official board assembled Nov. 5th, 1900, desire to place on record an expression of our esteem for and appreciation of our dear departed brother, W. J. John- ston, sr., who was for many years a faithful and active member of this board. Our beloved brother was a lover of the house and work of God, regular in his attendance upon the same, punctual in meeting and lead- ing his class, and faithful in the dis- charge of his duties in connection with the church. Good, kind, and true to all the ministers and their families, his home always open to them, and he himself ever ready to do what he could for their comfort. Our brother has gone from our midst and we miss him greatly, but the influence of his christian character remains with us. We shall miss his cheerful presence, his wise counsel and his helping hand. We deeply mourn our loss and do sincerely sympathize with our sister, Mrs. Johnston, and also the family whose bereavement was so sudden and severe. But our loss is his gain, he has gone to his glorious reward, and his works do follow him. He has been gathered into the heaven- ly garner as a shock of corn fully ripe. May the Lord our God bestow His blessing of comfort and support on our bereaved sister Johnston and every member of the family, and tyrant to each member of this Official Board that grace, which shall enable us to live and work for Christ, that we may -finally see with our glorified brother the reward of faithful ser- vants of God. "0 happy, happy soul! In ecstasies of praise, Long as eternal ages roll, Thou seeth thy Saviour's face; Redeemed from earth and pain, 0111 when shall we ascend, And all in Jesus' presence reign With our translated friend!

Her knuckles and joints swelled, causing torture. To get up or down stairs was impossible, She took box after box and rubbed the sore places with Nerviliue. Improvement started and she mended fast. To -day she is quite cured and we thank Ferrozone for her recovery." No remedy more popular with doctors than Ferrozone; it does cure, 50e per box at all dealers. W. J. PRICE, L,.D.S., D.D.S.
