Marvellous Results.

From letter written By Rev. j. Gunder-
man, of Diamondale Mich, we are permitted
to make this extract: Il have no hesitation in
recommending DR.. Kings New Discovery, as
the results were almost marvellous in the case
of my wife, While 1 was pastor of the Bap-
fist Church at Rives Junction she was brought
down with Pneumonia succeeding La Grippe.
Terrible paroxysms of coughing would last
hours with little interruption and it seemed
as if she could not survive them. A friend
recommended DR.. Kings New Discovery; it
was quick in its work and highly satisfactory
in its results" Trial bottles free at E. s.

some residence on Washington street
of ex-Mayor E. E. Downham was turn
ed over last night to the friends of his
son, Horace, it being the occasion of
the celebration of the latter's twenty
first birthday. The guests, numbering
fourteen, partook of the most inviting
repast that the caterer could provide,
during which various wines were dis
pensed from seemingly inexhausti-
BILE store. The ex-Mayor gave his sou
a very handsome gold watch and chain,
the presentation of which was made
by Mr.. Malcolm Hufty in an appro-
pirate and we'll received speech, which
was briefly responded to. Mr.. Down
ham on being called on made some
very fitting remarks in advising the
young men present on the best course to
adopt in life. Those present were Mes
srs. Frank, Harry and Robert Down
ham, Walker, Duncan, Davis, Osborn,
Cogan, Hufty, Smith and Pickett.
