BEDDING.
SAMUEL II. SANFORD,

SAMUEL II. SANFORD,
 Son of Jesse l.. and Fannie M. Sanford, died at Bedding Ridge, October P, aged Is years. Notwithstanding the tender care of loving friends and the medical skill of faithful physicians, Sammie, af- ter a brave struggle for life, succumbed to that dread disease, typhoid fever and passed to his long home early on Tues day morning. This event, so unexpect- ed and so sad, is q crushing blow to his parents and caused feeling of sorrow throughout the entire community. Of q genial nature and loving disposition, he was beloved by all who knew him. None knew him but to love, none nam ed him but to praise" Death is at all times a sad event, but it is invested with more than usual sadness when it quench- es the light of young life so full of promise. Avenues were opening Co him spanned by the rainbow of hope and, had he lived to enter upon them, honorable success would, no doubt, have crowned his brow. But God, in His wise provi- dence, saw otherwise and has called him away. In our sorrow at his untimely departure, we have the consolation of knowing that he died in the hope of a glorious immortality, for he was a true Christian and gave evidence of his faith by constant Christian life. He has left behind him an example worthy of im- itation by his young associates. May they strive to follow it and realize that there is something nobler and grander than life devoted to frivolity and pleas ure. His bereaved parents and his lov- ing brothers and sisters have the warm est sympathy of the entire community in their sore bereavement. May that God who is too wise to err, too good to be unkind, comfort them in the hour of their trial.

SEEING IS BELIEVING.
 Wonderful Restoration of Paralyzed rm hv nr Marro1u


 There is certainly something wonder full about the power for healing the sick possessed by DR. MERROw, of No. ll5 Fairfield avenue. Wonderful from the fact that in but very few cases, simply by an application of magnetic power, the ''sick are made whole" Happening in the doctors office one day this week, the writer there had an opportunity of wit messing examples of this wonderful power. Mrs Hester Burton, living on Campbell street, who told us that she had not used her arm for two years, ap- piled to DR. MERRow for relief, and in less than 15 minutes she was enabled to not only move her arm readily, but easily lifted articles, which she had been unable to do before. A Mrs Brown said she had been troubled with dyspepsia and indigestion. Everything she ate gave her distress. She had applied to a number of physicians, who endeavored to relieve her. but none seemed to do her any good. About week ago she appli- ed to DR. MERROw, who, to her astOnish- ment, told her that she was troubled with tape worms. This was startling information. But she was assured by I the doctor that such was the fact, and was astonished when DR. MERROw, in q very few minutes, removed from her a tape worm 97 feet s inches long today the lady Is enjoying good health. This l worm may be seen at the doctors office at any time. And thus it is, without any excitement, without any noise, DR. MERRow is healing the sick and making hundreds happy. The doctors charges are very reasonable, his consultations being free, enabling the poor to obtain relief as we'll as the rich. So large has the doctors practice become that he has been obliged to secure Dr Davis, of the Eye and Ear hospital, New York, to as sist him at Bridgeport.
