NEVER NEGLECT A COLD

A slight cold while unpleasant and
annoying is seldom treated as a serious
matter, and yet how often do we find it
when neglected terminating in chronic
catarrh, bronchitis, consumption, and
kindred fatal diseases. No cold or
cough should be allowed to take its
own course, but nature should receive
timely assistance IN warding off the IA
tai consequence that may result from
neglect. For this purpose that re-
nowned remedy, DIR. RADCLIFF's
SEVEN SEALS OR GOLDEN WONDER is
without an equal. Thousands have
used it for coughs, colds, bronchitis and
consumption, and with singular unani-
nifty attest its marvellous efficacy.
Numerous certificates Of the complete
cures of long standing cases of catarrh
and bronchitis, after all other remedies
had been tried in vain, are in possession
of the proprietors Of the GOLDEN Wow

Editor Herald:
If you will be kind enough to give
me a small space in your most excel
lent paper, | would like to express my
sincere gratitude TO the people of
Hartford and Hartford circuit, for
their generosity, liberality and kind
regards to myself and family during
my sOjourn in their midst. | came to
this County last year comparatively a
stranger, but l soon discovered that |
was among warm hearted and intel
ligent people. l have commenced the
labors of another year in their midst,
my prayer is, that we may have access
to the hearts of the people and success in
the accomplishment of good. Last
Sabbath l travelled seven miles
through a snow storm to Liberty
church, tried TO preach, took dinner
with John Leach, Esq, a nice family,
II clever. gentleman, came home the
same evening through the storm, very
much fatigued and somewhat low spir-
tied, but in the morning found myself
refreshed and strengthened by the rest
afforded during the night. On open
ing the front door, what an agreeable
surprise, there set large basket full
of nice Christmas presents for my fam
lily and self, too many good things to
itemise. Suspicion rests upon Master
Godfrey McHenry as being the bearer
Of these nice presents. Many thanks
to him, and his kind parents, who We
suppose took an interest in this matter
there came three little angels,
(they will be angels some day hope)
they were little girls, Misses Mary
Taylor, Mary Tribble and Miss Cosby,
with another basket full of presents
oh, SO nice, and the very things that
the preacher and his family needed.
l don't know how the an.
gels looked that came from
Heaven and baked a cake for the
prophet of God. under the juniper
tree that lasted him forty days and
forty nights, but / know how these lit
tie girls looked. They did look so
nice and happy, and their visits made
others happy. Many thanks to them
and their kind parents. The door be-
ing shut again, my family engaged in
an inventory of our nice pres.
ents / myself opened the door, and
there set box. l like to have step
ped right in or on it, I saw a colored
friend making his way from the gate,
| asked who sent this box here. He
answered, a member of your church.
sand, God bless that member. II
wish We had a million of just such.
The box taken in and of course open-
ed, and / must say, there were SO
many beautiful, nice and useful things
in it. My wife said, Mr. Cook l don't
think can leave home to-day. I re-
marked that We were under promise to
take dinner with Squire Alex Bennett
and We must comply. This box con-
tanned some of the incest presents
that We have ever received. Suspi-
cion rests upon Bro. Wayne Griffin
and his excellent wife, many thanks to
them for this token of kind regard.
Ut course we went out TO Bro. Ben
nett's to attend the reunion Of his chill
dren aud grand children. All his
children living were present and all
his grand children, twenty in number.
Too much cannot be said of the good
dinner, prepared by Brother and Sis.
ter Bennett, for their children. God
grant that it may only be an emblem
Of the reunion of their family in Heav-

On last Monday night about mid.
night the quiet of the Silly night was
broken by the shrill exciting cry of
fire resouuded throughout the length
and breadth of the town. 1t proved
to be the Arkenburgh tobacco STEM
merry on fire. 1t made a very bright,
hot fire and the snow on the surround
ing buildings was all that saved the
town from n fearful confagration.
There arc two tracks in the snow
leading to the corner of the building
next TO the bridge, and leading away
from it again, and it appears from the
tracks that the parties leaving, stop
ped twice, no doubt to look back and
see how the fire was progressing. 1t
was undoubtedly set on fire. There
have many mysterious fires hap
pened here in the last few years and
we no doubt have an inccndiary in our
midst. By all means let us take steps
TO ferret the scoundrel out.
We are not advised whether there was
any insurance on the property. Loss,
$1,000
Our citizens had better turn their
attention TO insurance. The Royal
Insurance Company offers the very
best security and idemnity against
loss, by fire that can be procured.
Barrett & Bro, are its agents at this
place.
