PRESENTATION TO THE MAYORESS OF
DUDLEY.

On Wednesday evening, a deputation from the Town
Council of the borough of Dudley waited upon the
Mayor (Mr. Joseph Stokes). at his resideuer in the
Wellington Road, to present the Mayoress with a
handsome silver cradle and an illuminated address, the
occaslon being the birth of a daughter during his Wor-
ship's time oeoffice. The gentlemen who attended were
Aldermen Hingley, Wilkinson, and Russell; Councillors
Dawes, Clarke, and Warmington ; Mr. W. H. Brooke
(town clerk), and Mr. W. Barradale (magistrates'
clerk).
The Town Clerk read the , address, which was
brilliantly illuminated and bound in morocco leather.
The document stated that the "Aldermen and members
and officers of the Town Council of the borough of
Dudley presented the accompanying cradle to Mrs.
Stokes on the occasion of the birth of a daughter—
Hester Adelaide—on the Ist May, 1876, during the
mayoralty of her husband, and the committee embraced
the opportunity of testifying their appreciation of the
valui.ble services rendered by him to the borough, and
especially in the initiation of works of great benefit and
importance to the inhabitants."
Alderman Hingley then presented the cradle, which
was of solid silver supported by four angels in frosted
silver. The gift was upon an ebony pedestal, orna-
mented with silver cords, and bore an appropriate
inscription. Mr. Hingley also presented the infant
daughter with a silver spoon, fork, and napkin ring.
Addressing Mrs. Stokes, Alderman Hingley spoke highly
of her husband's services, and begged her acceptance
of the gift as a tribute to his labour for the public
good.
Alderman Wilkinson followed, and praised the Mayor's
public spirit, which had raised the status of the town,
although it had cost his Worship much time and trouble.
It was sufficient to render the town grateful to Mr.
Stokes to remind it that he had carried the waterworks
question. (Hear, hear.) He had inauguilted tligi.teep
drainage scheme, and he had insisted on'tretter raiftay
accommodation.

__—
Mr. Clarke also spoke, and detailed the manner in
which the gift was raised. No one but the members of
the Council and Its officers had subscribed, although
scores of gentlemen had offered money.
Answering for the Mayoress, the Mayor thanked the
committee for their praise of him, and said the gift of a
cradle to his wife, a present to his child, and an address
to him bound him with a new three-fold tie to the
interests of his native town.

The proceedings then terminated. The gifts are
valued at more than £6O.

THROAT IRRITATION.—The throat and windpipe are
especially liable to inflammation, causing soreness and
dryness, tickling and irritation, inducing cough and af-
fecting the voice. For these symptoms use glycerine in
the form of jujubes. Glycerine, in these agreeable
confections, being in peoximity to the glands at
the moment they are excited by the act of sucking/
becomes actively healing. 6d. and is. boxes (by post

The PRIVATION OF THE USE OF ONES'S LIMBS while the

tion to the actively disposed. Such, however, is the con-
dition of the victims of rheumatism or gout. To walk
without enduring agony is impossible, to use the arms'
free from excruciating pain, is equally impracticable. A
