DouDLY benefited. â€" There is no one remedy known that has more curative power over dyspepsia and liver complaint than Burdock Blood Bitters. "I had liver complaint and my husband was so bad with dyspepsia that he could not labor. One dozen bottles of B. B. B. has enabled both of us to attend to our usual work," reports Mrs. John A.

Capsized.â€" On Wednesdav last a wedding party was driving through this village towards the railway station to catch the noon train, and overtak* ing a loaded team opposite the Severe Hotel the jolly party hauled off to pass, and struck a hard snow drift upsetting the rig containing the bride and groom with some half dozen of the most important of the weddeners. It must have been humiliating to get such an unceremonious spill before so many spectators, but there was no serious damage reported. They didn't miss the train either. Humors.â€" The most humorous man is not always the happiest the man who has scrofulous humor or any obstinate humor of the blood, dose not feel very lively, at least not imtil he is cured, which, by the way. Burdock Blood Bitters will do in the most troublesome of blood humors. The Creemore Advertiser was a year old last w:eek.

Li your issue of March Brd, an article appeared under the above heading which might, if un-explained, reflect upon the character of tho parties named viz. â€" Messrs. Isaac and John Tuohy. The article or notice (ras not intended for publication, but only designed as a practical joke upon Elder and Tuohy and strictly confined to them and some half dozen of their intimate friends. The writing of the notice came about in this way. The next day but one after the late elections Sweeny was in Markdale and made the remark in a jokular way, that "Elder St Tuohy were lost." The writer of the notice said "how is that Sweeny says well, they went to Durham election day and havn't got back yet. If that is so we had better get out some notices and offer a re- ward for: their return, so the writer picked up. a piece of brown paper and began scribbling, the result of whicli was the burlesque notice referred too. There was one or two friends ot all the gentlemen ' present and some one suggested that Sweeny put it up on Mr. Elders shop door. The writer most emphatically paid no, that would be too public, simply take it along and. when you see th.e boys together give it to them and lead them to un- derstand that you iound ic posted up along, ihe road, said alright that will do. But instead of confining the joke within the intetided limits when it would have iojured no .one, not even their tender feelings, I though tlessly handed it.to the printer not thinking it wQold cause ili-feelings or iujury as that WAS farthest from the intention of any of the parties to tho joke.
