Comstock in the ninety- second year of her age. The funeral was held from her late residence on Monday, Rev. Mr. Hart officiating. Mrs. Gomstock was born in New York in'the year 1806, and when eight years old came with her widowed mother to live in Wilton. The journey, a great event in'those days, was made ' by sloop, it taking a week from New York to N orwalk. In 1824 she was married to Nathan Comstock, who she survived for many years. Ten years ago she lost her aged mother, the ven- erable Mrs. Raymond at the age of 104, and a year ago she was called upon to , mourn the death of her only son, John R. Comstock. Since then, although tenderly cared for and ministered unto, she has waited longingly for death to release her from her earthly tenement. Mrs. Comstock was a woman of fine New England ancestry, being descend- ed from the Rev. John Davenport of colonial fame. She was a woman of, strong character, of great executive ability, and of stately and handsome personal appearance, and though the eye had become dimmed, she retained until the last- much of her mental vigor and interest in those around her, She was a Christian woman, Christ having been her refuge from one generation to another, and she died confident and se- rene in her faith. Her interment was in J oes Hill cemetery, where so many of her loved ones~lie. Mrs. Comstock leaves but one near relative, her grand- son, Frank Comstock, of South Nor- walk. E. S.

They are a pOS1tive and effective remedy for constipation and for all the long list of ills that follow in its wake—such as dyspepsia, dizziness, drowsiness, coated tongue, foul breath, headache, pain in the stomach, etc. Take one or two pills every night—one is usually enough—and be certain that a cure will follow. After you have taken them for a few nights, your skin will assume a wholesome, healthful color, your eye a brilliant lustre, and sallowness and pimples will disappear.
