POROUS PJASIERS

lias induced many persons to deceive tlie public by offering plasters which are not only lacking in the best elements of the genuine article, but are often harmful in their effects.

The public should be on their guard against these frauds, and, when a plaster is needed, be sure to insist upon 1 laving the best. When you buy Allcock's you obtain absolutely the best plaster made.

Milford Williams was born August 3, 1880 and departed this life on the 18th or March, being eighteen years, five months and fifteen days of age. God has Been fit to break the chain of seven links and taken from it a loved one. He leaves a father, mother, one brother and three sisters to mourn the loss. Although his suffering was intense he bore it patiently, the last words being, "Pa, I'm going. Meet me there." How fresh in our memory ie the recollections of the liveliness and innocence of the lovely departed. All that was mortal is changed now and clouded forever, but how is our comfort in the well grounded assurance that the Good Shepherd who "careth for his flock" has taken the gentle one \into hiB own fold. Now his po-r earthly garment is laid" in the early grave and his generous, loving, t-uth-ful spirit, with its mine of unwrought wealth, can b.i with us only by the eye of faith. Wonderful io this dispensation of a Heavenly Father's chastening hand "To do and distribute," was his element when visibly present.

The recollections of him who has so lately departed, must be so full of painful regrot that we will not dwell on this dark side of the picture, but rather look to its brighter aspect in the hope that he has gone to a happier sphere, and what is loss to us IB to him unspeakable gain. Bnt let us remember that we are in the hands of him who knows when to give and when to take away and God has that time shall bring comfort and soothing for all earthly sorrow. Truly we live in a world where solemn shadows are continually falling upon our path. Shadows that teach us the insecurity uf all temporal blessingp, and warn us that "there is no abiding stay." We have, however, the blessed satisfaction of knowing that death cannot enter that sphere to which the departed are removed. Let hope and faith mingle with our natural sorrows nd look to that future where the evered ties of earth are reunited, is life was so pure that we may eel the blessed assurance that he has one to the home Drepared for those ho love and faithfully serve the ord. 0 that we all may meet in that ighter and haooier world where rrow, sin and suffering are alike and nknowp.
