Such strong evidence as this must con­vince everybody of the genuine worth of this great medicine. Mr. Elwood's word is as good as gold. When he makes a statement people know they can depend upon it. Just suph reliable statements about Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy are constantly appearing, and the people everywhere have the utmost confidence in this wonderful medicine.

They take it, and perfect health results. The popular Miss El wood thinks it is in­deed a wonderful remedy when it will cure what all the skill of other physicians can not benefit.

Wby waste time in trying uncertain and untried remedies, when here is a physi­cian's prescription, a discovery made by tbe greatest living specialist in curing nervous and chronic diseases, Dr. Greene, of 85 West 14th St., New York City? If you take this medioine you can consider yourself under Dr. Greene's direct pro­fessional care, and you can consult him or write to him about your case, freely and without charge. This is a guarantee that this remedy will cure, possessed by no other medicine in the world

I notice an article from the Canton Plaindealer, to the ejffeot that Massena has a mild sensation, fphicb is evidently Wm. Scobie's side of tie affair. Just wait Vlittle, until yon hear the other side. Tbe other fellow was formerly from this town and he is just the kind of a fellow that 'won't stand and be made the butt of ridi­cule, although he stood it all, at the time, out of respect for himself and others. The other fellow, I am informed, forgot to conduct himself as a gentleman, and later on had to take [the consequences, although he tried to take the tram. Stay with him, Jo. We believe you are in the right, and not the green-eyed monster they would have people believe.

Before the next PALLADIUM shalll come to us wi th its ever welcome pages and its chronicles of events, the old year with all its happiness and joys, its sorrows and disappointments, will be but a memory of the past, and the new year with its un­certainties, hopes and anticipations will be here; On the threshold of the depart­ing and incoming year it is time for seri­ous reflections. We know that many who but one short year ago welcomed the new year with fond hopes and bright an­ticipations have tasted of the bitter cup of sorrow, and many who were in the bloom of health have passed beyond our vision, and we see their forms no more, for the earth has been heaped upon their pulse­less breast and a white mantle of snow covers their last resting place. We know not what the coming year has in store for us. We know that many who welcome this new year with hope and joy and many wishes for a happy new year, be­fore it shall wheel its round, will.be num­bered with the dead. Who they will be, whether you or I, we can not tell. As we look back on the year that has passed and gone, are its memories sweet and pleasant, or are they filled with sad laments and vain regrets? Now on tbe birth of tbe Iiew year let ua take lessons from the past, and try and live nobler and better lives, for that which is higher and more enno­bling, and that shall make those around us happier and better. Then, whether our years be few or many, in the twilight hours of life memory will not be an an--bidden guest, but a welcome Mend. Then when the last message shall-come for. us to go we shall feel

That when our Urea on earth shall close And wo sink In death's calm, sweet repose. In the hereafter, across the tide,

" Heaven'* doors for ua shall open wide. Mrs. Warner Hildreth, who is in Grand

The Christmas- entertainment' and Christmas tree at the Presbyterian church we» decidedly a success* The recitations were all that could be desired, and the church was filled to its utmost capacity. The presents were abundant, a large tree being welt filled, a table crowded and many large articles being placed;.around the altar. The very best of feelmg was manifestedthrougbout the exercises. Alt seemed to enjoy themselves, and your correspondent has heard many who were there say that it was as good an entertain­ment of the kind as they ever witnessed, and many others express themselfoe: "It oould not have been better." Rev. 3 . B, Seelye and family were not forgotten, for they had a present on the tree of a purse containing something over f 14,

Think of It I Less ffian 9 per cent, were worth $5,000 and less than 2a per cent, were worth $1,392 when they died. Toe conclusion is that whether 9,115 out of every 10,000 leave an estate of $6,000 or not depends upon whether they have life insurance for that amount or not. -<
