Pearson of Waterloo, there has come to light a story that even in these days when bogus officers have had their fling, rivals the doings of the boldest of fiction heroes.

The death of Mrs. Levi Bricker last Thursday came as a great shock to her many friends, bringing with it a sense of a very real personal loss, and with every token of love and pect from relatives, friends and ulzhnn her remains were borne to their last restâ€" ing place at Mt. Hope Cemetery on Wednesday afternoon. The beautiful service at the family residence, Allan ‘unot. was conducted by her pastor, Rev. D. A. McKeracher, ably assisted by a former pastor, Rev. J. R.

Kindly sympathy for the mourners was eloquently expressed by the magnificent floral offerings, beauâ€" tiful expressions of the warm love with which the deceased was regarded by her many friends. Mrs. Bricker was devoted to her family, her church and works of kindness and charity, much beloved by a large circle of friends, and a family circle, who will greatly miss her generous hospitality and her thoughtful interest in each one of them on their regular visits to the nappy home, and the bereaved husâ€" band and family have the sincerest sympathy of all in the loss of such a kind and devoted wife and mother. _ Mr. and Mrs. Norman Howie, of Toâ€" ronto, were weekâ€"end visitors in Watâ€" erloo with Mr. and Mrs. Alex.
