home of Mr.. V. T. Edwards and
claimed for his own the fairest
blossom, their baby son, Hubert,
aged nineteen months and twenty
two days. For nearly tour weeks
we watched, sometimes in hope,
sometimes in fear. On Sunday,
o'clock a. M, the dear little eyes
closed forever, the sweet baby
tongue was stilled. How we longed
for this little treasure to be spared
to us, but it was not the will of Him
who doeth all things we'll. Late iii
the afternoon at the cemetery at
this place the little white casket
was reverent1y placed in the grave
beside his little twin brother; and
the tiny mound covered with sweet
white flowers. Mamma, papa, your
grief is bitter now, but after awhile
you will meet baby Hubert again,
where no more tears will be shed.

way. Prevention, says the prov
erb, is better than cure. So it is,
and vastly easier. That is, ache1s
you kn0so how to pfeUeet. The
town of London would not have
been scourged by the plague if the
people had known how to pre-
vent it. But they did not, and
so they were swept away as grain
falls in front of the big reaping
machines. Men used to build
forts and castles, and strong
walls around their cities, in or
der to be safe from their enc
mics; and there was wisdom and
good judgment in the idea. New
ertheless, disease, which kills
thousand where ten are slain In
battle, cannot be kept out by
thick walls or escaped by fight.
The proper thing to do is to
make the body healthy by right
living and the frequent use of a
tonic and purifying medicine like
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION
which causes the food to be well
digested, destroys or expels the
germs of disease that may be in
the blood, and stirs up the organs
to active and natural operation.
This ever successful remedy is
palatable as honey and contains
all the nutritiye and curative pro-
perties of Pure Cod Liver Oil,
extracted by us from fresh cod
liyers, combined with the Com
pound Syrup of Hypophosphites
and the Extracts of Malt and
Wild Cherry. No other medicine
can compare with it in prevent
ing, relieving and curing La
Grippe. Throat and Lung Trou-
bles, Dysentery, Debility, and
other ailments to which all are
exposed from the germs con-
stantly taken into the system
from the air, water, food, and
many other sources. DIR. w. D.
hlcNab, of Canada, says: II find
your preparation of cod liver oil

ELSTON AND
MISS CUNHA PLAY

With two Of the very best games OF
the season, the ladies' tennis singles
were narrowed yesterday to the finals
by the defeat of Miss Adams by Mrs.
Elston and the victory of Miss Cunha
over Mrs. Field.
There was a very fair crowd at the
Pacific courts when the play was call
ed. and the first game was on imme-
diately. Mrs. Elston did not show as
strong form as last year. She served
well but her returns were not as accu-
rate. She managed to win the first
game, So, by some Of the very best
work. the pace being rather hot for her
opponent and the second game went
to her, .6-s.
The second match, between Miss
Cunha and Mrs. Field, gave the specta-
tors an exhibition of high class play.
The first set was won only after the
score had been forced to rs, and the
people were led to expect better work
later. They were not disappointed. for
the second set was won by Mrs. Field,
$40. by some of the hardest and gam
est work that could be expected and
after sharp rallies, quite of the cham
pionship order. Miss Cunha had the
reserve strength and took the last by
6-S. winning a round of applause.
The finals viii be played on the
Beretania courts this afternoon at 4
o'clock, between Mrs. Elston and Miss
Cunha, and the play will be worth
seeing. The winner will play Miss
Horner for the cup next week.

A Good Record.

Eleven hundred and twenty-nine
books, drawn from the Y. M. G. "A.
free public library in 10 months, is
by no means record to be asham-
of for the first months of our little
library, considering the fact that
it was built from nothing since the
first of last February. The shelves
Of the library now contain some Of
the very best books, having Dick
ems complete works, nearly all of
Scott's and some so of the best
modern authors. One sad fact
confronts us, however, and that is
the lack of funds in our library
department for the purchase of
new books. The best books are
almost continually drawn from the
library, and drawn by the best
book lovers who fully appreciate
the value of good books and their
care, and yet these books show
considerable wear and tear and
will, at the end of a year, be unfit
for our shelves. Thus the ques-
ton arises, how and by whom are
these books to be replaced as the
library is entirely free to the pub
lie. 1t is sincerely hoped that at
this Xmas tide when the spirit OF
giving pervades the atmosphere
that the library will not be forgot
ten. When you are buying your
Xmas presents buy book for the
library or leave the price of a book
with any merchant and we will dc
the selecting as we are better ac-
Iquainted with the books on the
library shelves and those books
most often called for.
We can not hope for Carnegie
to come forward, for this would
require our already over-taxed city
to be further taxed to the extent d
one-tenth each year of his gift, but
by everyone taking little Interest
in the library we would be sur
prised at its rapid growth. If yor
have the library at heart do no
wait to be personally solicited az
this takes more time than those
who have charge of this work caf
spare, but consider this persona
appeal to you and come and offel
your services.
Respectfully submitted to tn,
public of Grangeville.
