mitted to make this extract; IL haveno
hesitation in recommending DR.. King
New Discovery, as the results were almost
marvellous in the case of my wife. While
was pastor of the Baptist Church at
Rivts 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

highly satisfactory in results" Trial

Mr.. an6 Mrs. +. E. Bishop of Newark

W. II. Campion and wife, H. o. Smith
and wife aud Mrs. ID. Z. Howard were
called to Charleston last week Wednes-
day to attend the funeral of Mrs. Kit
ridge Hudson.
Our community was shocked and sad
dened last Tuesday when news was re-
ceived Of the death of Mrs Hattie |. Hud-
son, wife of Kitridge Hudson, of Char
lesion, which occurred at her home Mon
day September 2S. Mrs. Hudson was
formerly of this place, and was universally
beloved. She was born in Newark,
March 81, 1861. She was the daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. Alvah Sleeper, who,
with one sister, now live in Lancaster, ~
II. She was a true Christian woman,
and one who could hardly be spared
She was converted in childhood and
brought into the church early in life. In
her home we will use the wise mans de-
scription of virtuous woman: "She
looketh well to the ways of her house
The heart of her husband doth safely
trust in her." Some months ago disease
laid its hand upon her and for the past
few weeks she had been sinking beneath
its wasting ravages. Just before she died
her husband asked her If she knew him
She replied YES, but | can't see YOU"
then SAID "they are coming, they are all
here, and sweetly fell asleep. The funeral
was held at her late home Wednesday
afternoon, Rev. A. Z. Atwater of Island
Pond officiating. The East Charleston
choir sang with saddened hearts and
trembling voices songs well suiting the
occasion. The casket was literally COW
cred with flowers. gifts of affection. A
beautiful pillow was presented by her
friends with the word, Mamma" an
other pillow with the letter NJ, a cross
tied with white ribbon, 4 lovely bouquet
of white aStcrs, wrcaths and beautiful
star of leaves and flowers, while vases
were filled with the loveliest of choice
flowers from many loving hands. No
attention that affection could suggest
was spared. The house was filled with
friends who deeply sympathized with the
bereaved husband and five motheress
children. After the services were over the
Ladies Circle of the Grand Army, of
which she was a faithful member, had
charge and as they looked for the last
time upon the face of their departed Sis
ter, each laid bouquet of flowers in the
casket. A large number followed the re-
mains to the grave. The husband and
children who feel that the light of their
home has gone out have the sympathy Of
many friends in their terrible bereave-
ment. May the God in whom she trusted
be their stay and support.

An amusing scene happened at the sta
ton last Monday-amusing to the spec
tators, but not very amusing to one of
the parties interested. A young man at
Coaticook passed bogus check on Il
woman there and at once left coming to
Island Pond on the mixed train. The
woman in the meantime discovered that
she had been imposed upon and followed
on the express, meeting the young man
in the waiting room. She was museu-
lar woman, and mad too, and the scene
that followed beggars description. She
got her money back, also her expenses,
and the Young man was very glad TO be
released from her clutches on these
terms. He started east poorer, but
wiser man, and considerably used up by
the terrible shaking he underwent.

"YoU HAVE MADE A JOYFUL EASTER FOR Me-"

An emperor Of the dynasty OF the
Liangs, according to Chinese writer;
was out shooting one day, and saw q
flock of ducks settle In field not faI
ahead OF him. Like President IlurIi-
son and President Cleveland, rs 1t AZ
pears, this Chinese emperor was par
ticularly fond of killing ducks, though
he was obliged to do 1t with bow md
arrow instead Of shotgun. In the
present case he stepped forward, drew
his bow and was just ready to let hy,
when a peasant happened to cross tue
field directly between him md tic
birds.
The royal attendants cried out Ia
him, but meantime the ducks took
alarm and were OF. The emperor WINS
very angry, and vowed he would shoot
the peasant. Then one Of his minis
tiers did brave and noble thing.
"Your majesty" said he, do not kill
n man because game is wanting. A
king must not be rs savage rs the beat
that he hunts"
1t was excellent advice; and the best
part of the story Is that the emperor
accepted 1t, and neither shot the peas

recovered from his anger, and when he
reached his palace, he said:
