In it's earlier stages catarrh IL more Of nuisance
than a to the general health. but sooner or

Catarrh Is essentially q disease Of the mucous

tation in throat. causing coughing. sneexing gag
ginE and frequent 'clearings Of the throat and

The usual treatment by local douches. snufYs.

anything like cure can only be obtained BY q
treatment which removes the catarrhal taint from
the blood and the disappearance Of the innamma-

remedy which meets these requirements
and which 80 far has been remarkably successful
in curing catarrh is Stuarts Catarrh Tablets.

Corner Stone Laying.

The corner store laying at Jersey
town on Sunday June 10th, was one
of the greatest events in the history of
this part of the country. The day
was all that could have been asked or
hoped for. and the people did most
surely take advantage of this splendid
day. At the hour of 10 o'clock the
old church was crowded beyond its
capacity and a great thiong of people
were compelled to stand on the out
side.
At 1880 the preacher, Rev. John
Bradshaw of the M. f. Church Of
Nanticoke was introduced, and preach
ed to the delight of all present from
these words, "The name of the Lord
shall endure forever" 1t was a master
ly sermon and the people responded
literally to the call for money. In
the afternoon very interesting service
was conducted by the pastor. After
singing, the Rev. 7. NJ Phillips enter
tanned the audience for IS minutes
with a thrilling address; the choir sang
and DR.. Bradshaw spoke and it just
seemed that he entirely electrified his
whole audience. The people gave
after this neat little sum of money
and they al! went home praislng the
Lord for this precious hour.
The evening came with its pleasant
breeze and along the dusty highway
came crowds of people to the service,
the song service was very inspiring,
conducted by Rev. T. M. Phillips
and Miss Bessie Turner presided at
the organ. This was a season of spirit
ual song, the choir sang selection.
Suffice it to say that the music was of
a high order and the people of Jersey
town need not to take second place,
by any means. The sermon, well 1t
was one OF those mighty pieces of
workmanship only hewn out by the
finished scholars, the life and purpose
of St. Paul, how it lifted up the stand
ard of Christian character.
After this came the last opportunity
for this memorable day to record the
name, as friend of this noble cause.
Only $45 was asked so that we might
record the day at $4,000, but instead
they continued giving until the col
lections for the entire day reached the
amount of $aIS.a9, and it did a COM
mon locker on good to be there and
see the changed looks upon other faces
and Oh how they sang, "Praise God
from whom all blessings flow" After
the Benediction the great crowds dis
persed going thence to their homes,
proclaiming victory on every hand.
