It is flot natural for a baby to be cross and bois flot so witbout reason. H1e has no other way of telling bis troubles than by crossuess and crying. When baby is cross give hlm Babv's Own Tablets, thevy wiIl soon make him good-natuned and happy, becau5e thev will cool bis bot littie mcuth, ease his sour little stomacb and balp bis obstinate little teeth through painlassly. Ttiese Tab- let-; are just what evers mothan needs for bier littie ones-anci for hier older bilidren too. Mrs. Clarence McKay, Rosewa 'v, N.

When my baby was four montbs old hae was very much troubled with indigestion Ha would vomit his food as soon as he took it, no0 inatter what I gava him and hie seemed to be always bungny and kept thin and delicate. 11e also suffered from consti- pation.

Spence, Cobourg, ex-Wardcn of these United Counties, on being the choice of the WVest Northumberland Conservatives to contest the riding in the coming Provincial eections. Not that we expect to sec bim a winner in the political race, beLause in a contest in which Mr Sam. Clarke is a competitor it would be useless to even think of any other man coming in better than a second, But Mr. Spence is one of our colleagues in the Counties' Council and we are pleased to sec that in our i anks are men considered worthy to re present their constituency in the halls of the Provincial Legisiature Mr. Spence is one of the best posted members of the council, a forceful speaker and' a pretty decent ail round sort of a feliow. But if we know West Northumberland, and we think we do, his chances against Sam. Clarke are in a ratic of say 1 to 1000.
