There are few persons who are aware Of the i'm
portance of attending to a cough or a cold at It's
first appearance. Tho thousand who die annually
Of consumption, were first attacked with Slight
cough or cold. which they thought would soon
"wear' itself of, and therefore neglected TO use
the proper remedies until they became iucurablc.
Every day that cough, cold, or any lung dis
case is neglected makes the chances Of a cure
more uncertain. We would recommend all suffer
ing from any disease Of the Lungs whatever, to
use HAssos's ConrouSD SYRur ov Tar. II never
fails in curing the worst cases Of coughs, colds,
hearsness, sore throat, catarrh and asthma. II

lowing Communication was handed Us last week
hut tso late for that edition. Hence We make
room for 1t this week:
ha. ISI,oa ;-soms months ago Mr.. Jonathan
foyston proposed 70 give the Methodist church oi
this plscs house. valued at about S. 900, for the
sam OF $500, the house to be used for parson-
sC. The board Of tru'tsss very promptly se-
s'ptsd the offer, expressing their thanks in res
slsties ordered to be fled in the archives Of the
shsreh. On lest Wednesday evening, oa the in.
'isssisn Of Mr. Boyntsn, the trustees met at the
parsonage, who're after enjoying a most eIesllen,
supper, provided by Mrs. Bsynton, possession wa,
formally given. and ths deed placed in the hand,
sf the sscrstsry Of ths board. Tho presentation
speech On the part Of Mr.. Doynton WAS unaffected
aud most snsstins, and the response on the part
Of the trustees BY Jsdgs MoEnally most happy.
Nr. beypton, however, was not slone disposed to
please, but 10 surprise. II was not an empty
sssss which hs presented to the church, but one
most completely and comfortably furnished, he
having appropriated to that purpose the $500 pro-
'idsd BY the church. The trustees we're happy
IN r'''viss and Mr.. Boynton happy in giving,
snd a. looked st the benevolent face Of the lat.
sr thought 1t testified to the truthfulnes of the
declaration, "it 10 more blessed to give than 10
f'''ir'" Any complimentary phrases, l am
