The Death of Mrs. Erkshire Warden.

Inc DEAN or EIkSHIIS bdIUcHs
A Waltham paper has this notice of
the death OF the wife of a former resident
of this COMMUNICATES. Erskine War
den Mrs. Warden was the daughter
of Hiram Webb Of Nantucket. She
iourneved to California via the Horn as
a child and returned TO New Bedford to
90 to school. Her father was city
auditor and very prominent there for
years. In 1878 she married Mr.. Warden
and has since lived in Waltham. Her
kindly charity IS too well known to need
rehearsal here. Almost her last words
were a request TO Mr.. Warden to
remember the poor of our city. A char
acteristic incident of her life was the TAX
ing of a little cripple from the state home
at Monson for whom she cared a s tender
ly as mother till death claimed the
little one. She was trustee of the Lee
land home and contributed to
many worthy societies. She attended
the Congregational church, but knew no
barrier of creed in her good works. Her
most fitting eulogy is the blessings of
those she has befriended.'

There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few years
it was supposed to be incurable. For a
great many years doctors pronounced 1t
a local disease, and prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly failing to
cure with local treatment, pronounced 1t
incurable. Science has proven catarrh
to be constitutional disease and there
fore requires a constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured by
F. ]. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the
only constitutional cure on the market.
1t is taken internally in doses from 10
drops to teaspoonful. 1t acts directly
on the blood and mucous surfaces of the
system. They offer one hundred dollars
for any case it fails to cure. Send for
