NERVOUS PROs1RATION.

MR.. A. L. MURDOCH:
81.

Boston, Mass, Nov. 8, 1890.
MR.. A. L. MURDOCH:
Dear Sir:
My son, twelve years OF age, sheen suffering
from shock to his nervous system for about
three years. His nerves were entirely shattered
so that we could not keep him In school for any
length OF time. Neither doctors nor medicines
did him any good. but he grew steadily worse, and
finally bad species of st Vitus dauee. At last
we gave up every medicine, and began giving him
Murdock's Food. He soon began to improve.
After taking two large bottles he gained strength
enough to enter the Boys Latin School. Greatly
to our surprise and that of his former teachers he
has managed TO attend that school constantly
without single absence for the last two months
He shows no sign of breaking down again, and Is
on the road to complete recovery. His improve
ment is due entirely to Murdoeks Food, and we
propose to continue its till he is the strongest
member of the family.
Yours very truly,
G.F. ORDWAY,
10 Doane street.

From the present outlook it seems very
likely that a complete revolution will
take place in this town in a short time.
Three Of the members of the new Town
Committee have formed combine with
the express purpose of crowding ont the
hitherto inyincible ''Kellyites " It is said
the intention is TO depose Simon, Tom
Murray, Ed Clifford and Recorder Sey-
mour. If anybody said two years ago
that such a grand revolution was to take
place they would have been laughed at.
II does indeed look as If the reign of
Simon had temporary setback.
IL is said that Tom Murray will prob
ably hold on, but there seems 10 be dead
set against the genial Ed Clifford Ed
has unconsciously made a bitter enemy
in Mike Hannah.
If the Town Fathers of this place at
tempt to emulate the example of their
Union Hill brethren in lighting the town
with electricity there will be vigorous
protest from the Boulevard Angels.v
The rumor that Simon Kelly had struck
a snag has reached all the crowned heads
in Europe. Queen Victoria. OF England,
has sent a telegram of coincidence.
