Qualms, nausea, longing for food yet dreading to eat. You may have the real thing, but Ferrozone will cure you like it did S. D. Huntingdon of Hamilton, who says "I frequently was attacked with such acute dyspepsia that - I thought it must be heart disease. I used Ferrozone and got re- lief. I kept on using Ferrozone and was cured. My digestion is in perfect order and I can eat anything to -day." Nothing is as good for dyspepsia and those bothered with weak stomachs.

Westfield farmers' beef ring was re- organized for the present season on Satiu'dtt,y last, Tlie ring has given such satisfaction since its commence - meat that more wished to partieipate in its benefits than could be accom- modated. The annual congregational meeting of Dungannon. Presbyterian church was held in the church cin Tuesday last. It is pleasing and very satisfac- tory to all .concerned, and especially to the pastor, that the congregation is increasing in numbers and also finan- cially, as may be seen by the annual report for 1001. One of Kingsbridge's oldest resi- dents has passed to the great beyond, in the person of Mr. Rocklin'', who breathed his last on Wednesday, Jan. 4th. He had been for some time previous to his' death very feeble. The deceased was a fine old gentle- man, universally respected, and his death is sincerely regretted by a wide circle of friends.

Mrs. Henry Wilbee, an old resident of Brussels, has been quite poorly for. several weeks and is still under the doctor's care. Her many friends hope she will soon be convalescent. A valuable hound belonging to Dan. Steiss, Grey, was killed by a train last week on the W. G. and B.,,while runn- ing on a fox trail. The owner had re- fused $25 for the animal not long since.

Williamson, both of the 2nd line. Mr. Burnett of the 16th sold three cattle recently at 5c. per pound. to be delivered in February. They are fine animals, if they were not they would not bring that. • Mr. and Mrs. John A. Patterson moved into their new residence last week. No doubt they will find it quite different from living in houses that were built in pioneer days. W. H. Weber of the 17th is hauling loads of shorts home from Clifford to feed his hogs. He never threshes though he makes more money on his 50 acre farts than many make on 100 acres. The difficulty between Dr. Arm- strong and the Tp. Council has been settled by the Council agreeing to pay hiin $150, and also the case between G. W. Mapletoft and the Council for $25. This is mach wiser than settling it in the courts.

Catarrh Of The plead Is very common, but awfully dang- erous because it causes deafness and leads to consumption. Cure is as cer- tain to follow the use of Catarrhozone as day is to follow night. You silnply breathe the fragrant healing Cntar- rhozono which spreads through the nasal passages, throat and lungs,s, driv- ing out every vestige of catarrh.
