LUNENBURG.

Owing to the terrible storm on
Monday. the sermon designed to
have been preached at the funeral OF
Stephen Howe will be preached next
Sunday afternoon, at the Congrega-
tional Church, by Rev. l.. ". Harris.
The Selectmen have appointed
Henry Howe Town Clerk to supply
the vacancy occasioned by the death
of Hon. Stephen Howe. A better
selection could not have been made,
as he has been Assistant Clerk for
several years, and is well qualified to
perform the duties OF the office.
J. H.
OBIrUARY.-Uon. Stephen Howe
died on the evening Of the 14th, af
ter an illness Of only twenty-seven
hours. lie was unusually well on
Thursday, performing considerable
labor; WAS attacked with shoek Of
paralysis, Which very unexpectedly
terminated his life. Mr. Howe was
born in September, 1896, in the second
framed house built in town. now
standing and known as the ''old Bar
nard house." consequently he was in
his 18th year. His opportunities for
acquiring an education were limited,
but he WAS diIiigeht and perscyering,
and acquired good English educa,
ton, and was engaged more or less
for several years in teaching. He
was first elected Town Clerk in 1924, ,
and has held the office ever since, hay
the first Tuesday Of March. HIS
elections were always unanimous,
save one, when there was Il slight eff
fort to make Il change. 1t would be
hard to find an Office kept in "better
shape than his. Orderly, SYSTEM
attic, prompt, and an excellent pen
man. he could put his hand inmedi-
ately on any document wanted and
his papers prepared for courts could
not be eXcellcd IN neatness and accu-
racy. Being q man OF good juj ge-
ment, and careful, he enjoyed the
confidence Of his fellow-ciuzenS to an
unusual degree, having served them
in the Legislature twelve terms. He
was chosen as delegate to the last
Constitutional Convention. He bore
the weight of years easiiy-faculties
unusually strong and unimpaire@, and
his last writings, the return Of the
vote for County Commissioner, was
as nicely executed as if he had been
but twenty. Another OF the old
landmarks has passed away who came
down to us from the last century, AND
but very few remain. He was genial,
kind hearted-lirm in what he deem
ed to DC right. He will be much
missed in our community. W.

Every year increases the populari-
ty of this valuable Hair Preparation;
which is due to merit alone. We
can assure our old patrons that it is
kept fully up to its high standard;
and it is the only reliable and perfect
ed preparation for restoring GRAY
OR FADED HAIR to its youthful color,
making it soft, lustrous, and silken.
The scalp, by its use, becomes white
and clean. 1t removes all eruptions
and clandruf, and, by its tonic prop
critics, prevents the hair from falling
out, as it stimulates and nourishes
the hair-glands. By its use, the hair
grows thicker and stronger. In
badness, it restores the capillary
glands to their normal vigor, and
will create a new growth, except in
extreme old age. 1t is the most eco
nomical HAIR DRESSING ever used,
as it requires fewer applications,
and gives the hair a splendid, glossy
appearance. A. A. Hayes, MD,
State Assayer of Massachusetts, says,
"The constituents are pure, and care
fully selected for excellent quality;
and | consider it the BEST PREPA-
RATION for its intended purposes"
Sold By all Druggists, and Dealers in Medicines.
Price One Dollar.
