The condition of the streets

hardly be in a worse condition.

of decaying matter of the most
offensive character. The snow
remaining for so long a period
preserved everything and then
went off leaving vast quantities
of foreign matter deposited in
the cutters and about the streets.
The dreadful typhoid fever is
again attacking our people. The
streets must be cleaned up. We
learn that the council have al
ready acted on the matter; but
let the work be done thoroughly
and at once.

This letter speaks for itself,
making two things very clear:
First, the earnest haste of the
Equitable Life Assurance Society
to fulfill ITS contract, which was
so made that there was no ques-
ton about its fullfilment. Second,
that other companies are not
prompt in paying their losses.
The Equitable Society has the

dividends for its policy holders,
gives the best security to the
insured. protects with. the best
policy in the word, absolutely

messenger to the Paradise OF
God. Often, when those who so
dearly loved her, stood by her
bed side, they saw in her count

that comes only to the redeemed.
Mrs. Thompson was married
to VIM. j. Thompson January

both united with the church. liv.

God called the husband from this

she has had a widows care of
raising a family of Eve children,
four of whom stand as monuments
to her religious zeal, the other
having gone to her home in
Heaven. The loss sustained by
the children, friends and church
of which she was a member is
irreparable.
Our hearts are heavy and sore,
And We feel lonely to-day,
For deatl, has entered the door,
Aud taken our moth n away.
Her voice no more we'i, hear;

We sadly miss thee mother dear;
We deeply mourn for thee,
