chsuncey A. Walker Dead.

News came to Barnard village last
Thursday that a long-respected townsman
Chauncey A. Walker, had died at O'Clock
that morning at the residence Of his SON
inlaw, Lucian A. Richmond, Esq, in
South Barnard.
Mr.. Walker came to Barnard from
Bridgewater little more than fifty years
ago, buying the farm OF the late Hon,
Lorenzo Richmond, who moved to Wood
stock and soon became prominently no.
ticed as high sheriff OF Windsor county,
holding other political offices. This farm
was once occupied by Capt. Ebenezer
Richmond, then known as prime leader of
that powerful clan OF Barnard Richmonds.
Chauncey Walker lived on and owned
the farm, satisfied with the town, satisfied
with his neighbors, satisfied with all his
numerous acquaintance and friends, far
and near, until about two years ago, when
advancing age, i'll health, the death of an
only son, and later the death of his wife,
compelled him to sell the old homestead,
taking up his residence and home with
his son-in-law, Lucian A. Richmond,
where he died Feb. g.
Barnard loses one OF its most important
citizens, a prop OF influence, always ia
favor of right and firm supporter OF the
towns welfare, never having missed a
town meeting during all these fifty years,
as told to your correspondent last presi-
DENTAL election day. Always faithful to
duty and his conscience, Chauncey A.
Walker was one OF Gods noblest works,
an honest man.
His son-in-law, Lucian A. Richmond,
bought real estate, including a residence
in Woodstock, intending to make that
town his home, but Mr.. Walker said, ~
will never turn my back on Barnard ;
here / have lived and prospered all my
best days, and here / want to die.n His
prayer is granted.
Funeral was Saturday, Feb. 25, at the
home Of l.. A. Richmond, Rev. Fred Dam
iels Of Barnard officiating; interment at
South Barnard cemetery.
~ owe my whole life to Burdock Blood
Bitters. Scrofulous sores covered my
body. / seemed beyond cure. b. b. b.

Mrs. Van Scoy Experiences Danger
Gus After-Effects from Grip and

much stress cannot be laid on the impOr-
lance of strengthening the blood and
nerves during convalescence.
The story told by scores of victims OF the
grip is substantially the same. One was
tortured by terrible pains at the base OF
the skull that made life unendura Bile
another was left tired, faint and in every
way wretched from anBmia or scantiness
of blood; another had horrible headaches,
wss nervous and couldn't sleep; another
was left with weak lungs, difficulty in
breathing and acute neuralgia. In every
case relief was sought in vain until the
great blood builder and nerve tonic, DR..
Williams Pink Pills, was used. This
remedy is peculiarly adapted to build up
stable health after a siege OF grip. For
quickness of action nothing is known that
will approach il, but il is also without
equal Tor thoroughness.
Mrs. Van Scoy makes a statement that
supports this claim. She says

PROTECT YOURSELF AGAINST GERMS
People With Weak Stomaehs Most
Liable 10 Catch Disease.

When the stomach and digestive organs
are weak, the food does not digest, and
there is sour, Shiny, fermenting mass,
making it an ideal spot for the disease
germs to multiply. The only way to pro-
tect yourself against disease germs is to
strengthen the stomach and digestive
organs, and Mi-o-ns Is the only agent. so
far as is known, that will accomplish this.
The ordinary medicine that is taken for
Indigestion and stomach troubles is ad-
vertised to act upon the food alone, and
hence can give no more than temporary
relief. Mi-o-na is a certain cure in ell
cases OF stomach troubles, excepting can

intended they should. Drugs cannot di-
gest the food; they simply deeompose it.

Twelve or More Children Each In 1900
Quebec Families.
New York World

New YORK w OrlO. *
;: In the province of Quebec there. are no less
than $4,000 heads Of French Canadian families
each of whom possesses family OF twelve
children or more. Under a provincial enact.
ment these families entitled to q grant OF
100 acres Of land from the provincial public
domain, and this law is now causing much con-
Germ to the provincial authorities.
When the law was passed providing Tor this
grant of crown lands to productive married
couples it was never calculated that the number
Of large families would prove 50 very great:
serious incubus upon the local government on
account of the many thousands that have APP
piled for the right Of grant Of land and the
thousands that are yet to be sat1Shed. Inc
French Cana dian farmers marry young, ana they
are strong, hardy race of people -.
: The fathers OF these families invariably
choose the laad to which they are entitled !, as
are held under lease from the government by
lumbermen to cut the timber thereon but the
lumbermen are bound bys the terms of their
leases to relinquish such portion OF the lands
as may be claimed for settlement, notwithstand-
Ing that the limitholders have paid the price
Of their holding to the government.
Lumbermen are therefore much exercised over
the present situation. The tax on the timber
limitholders. who are called upon to surrender
large portions of their timber areas, has become
SO great that they are in a Quandary how to
protect their interests
Applications for land grants became SO nu,
merous last year that the lumber merchants
demanding relief from the wholesale spoliation
Of their timber holdings. AS a consequence, the
law was amended so as to provide bonus Of
$50 in lieu of the land grant, and as many
prefer the cash to the land it may serve to
relieve the situation somewhat
