Our Great After Holiday Sale ... AND ... Bargain Days. Satarday, Fcb'y, 4th Monday, Tuesday, r 7th WEST HURON ELECTION. THE OFFICIAL COUNT. THE WINGHAM Bellmore. • MISS E. Edwards has, taken a,situa- tion in Wingha•iu. Miss Grey has been visiting her grandmother, Mrs. Baker, in town. The C. O. F. held their regular sup- per last Friday evening, in their Hall. A pleasant feature of the meeting was the presentation of a purse of $25, to one of their number, Mr. G. Edwards, recently burned out. The Ladies' Aid met in the Meths, dist church last Tuesday to discuss. the renovation of the interior of the church. The contract was given to Geo. Liesmer, Mildznay, to cover the ceiling with metallic roofing as soon as possible, the contract price being $110. A. most disastrous fire occurred on the evening of Jan, 25, in our village, when the house (and contents) of Geo. Edwards.were completely destroyed, nothing being saved but the clothes they wore, and one or two articles of furniture. They were absent, a short distance, that evening, so that before the fire was noticed it had gained such headway that nothing could:be done, save to fight back the flames which blew across the street and made it a difficult matter to save Kirby's Hotel and McGrogan's store ; loss is partly covered by insurance. A large sum of money and other necessaries have been donated by their many friends who extend their sympathy in this manner. They will resume house- keeping in .Alex. Orr's residence.

"In my opinion Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is the hest inade for colds," says Mrs. Cora Walker of Porterville, California, There is no doubt about its being the best. No other will cure a cold so quickly. No other is so sure a preventive of pneumonia. No other is so pleasant and safe to take. These are good reasons why it should be pre- ferred to any other, The fact 18 that few people are satisfied with any Other after having once used this remedy. For sale by A. I. McCall & Co.

Bereavement has clouded the happy home of Joseph McBurney of this township. In the beginning of last week, Mrs. McBurney appeared to be in her usual health, but about the middle of the week she took ill. Pneumonia set in and she passed away on Saturday. The deceased's tnaiden name was Margaret Jane Bee- croft, and she was in her thirty-eighth year. She leaves a. sorrow -stricken husband and three children, the eldest being about ten years of age. Her illness was brief, but from the first her calm resignation sad constant - prayer seemed to rob death of all the glory of victory, and while the attending doctors were puzzling as to what hopes for life remained the de- - ceased was bestowing her benediction on her three little ones, her husband, her aged mother, her sisters and brothers, most of whom were at her side when the end came. From the first of her illness, she was conscious of the approach of death, and fre- quently raised her voice to the notes of "Jesus Lover of my Soul," her fa - favorite hymn. She had enjoyed but 13 years of married life. During her maiden life she was associated with Brick Church, where she was a choir member for years, and took a general interest ill all church work, being from her school days a devout mem- ber. In the surrounding neighbor- hood, her general kindness and good character won for her a host of friends, all of whom came to the home on the 31st, and after taking a farewell look at the well-known face, followed the remains to Wing - ham cemetery, where interrrnent took place. Services were conducted at the house by Rev. Mr. Hastie of Knox Presbyterian Church,- of which the deceased was a member ; he was as- sisted by Rev. Mr. Jones of the Meth- odist Church. At the grave, the for- mer clergyman read the burial ser- vice, while a human form whose life had been as pure as the spotless snow was committed to mother earth. The pall bearers were three brothers, William, John and David Beecroft, and three -brothers -in-law, Samuel McBurney, Charles Campbell and Henry McGee. Her brothers were all all home for the funeral. The sym- pathy of the entire locality is ex- tended to the bereaved husband and the motherless children, also to the aged mother, sisters and brothers. Stomach Troubles and Constipation. "Chamberlain's Stomach and Liver Tablets are the best thing for stomach troubles and constipation I have ever sold," says J. R. Cullman, a druggist of Potterville, Mich. They are easy to take and always give satisfaction. I tell my customers to try them and if not satisfactory to come back and get their money, but have never had a complaint." For sale by A. I.
