The minutes of last meeting were read PINK PILES WILL CURE RHEUMATISM, Every Form of the Disease Yields to This Blood .iilding Remedy. It is easy to make the statement that a medicine will cure riietnnatiem, butthe rheumatic sufferer must have more than mere statements—he mast larva reaN9us and proof. D. Williams' Rnk Pills cure all forms of rheumatism, Here is the reason: Rheumatism is a theme of the blood, Eeery dose of Dr, Williams' Pink Pills aotually make new rich red blood. This new blo id drives out the poisonous acid, loosens the ach. ing joiuts, and rheumattem is banished. Th meands have testified to the rnth of these statements, and here ' farther froth proof. Mr. Rwel M• itigny, of St, Jerome, Qae,, says: For many years I watt a victim of r-umatiem and was almost a trip. e. ' y work made it necessary to be r' r• y feet a good bit of the day, but m • limbs became so swollen and the pain so agonizing that I was forced to stop work; I tried rem- edy after remedy but nothing gave me relief and 1 began to think I would never get better. At last I was persuad- ed to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Ie less than a month I noted a slight change in my condition. I continued the Pills for three months and at the end of this time the melting had disappeared; every pain and ache had left me and I felt better in every way. I was complet. ly cured and once more able, to uo about my work with ease. Dr, Williams' Pink Pills are certainly worthy of all the praise I can give them," Thousands write giving just as strong proof of the value of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills—not only as a cure for rheu- matism, but as a care for all the ail- ments finding root in bad blood such as anaemia, heart palpitation, indigestion, kidney trouble, headache and backache, disordered nerves, etc. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are sold by medicine dealers or by mail at 90 cents a box or six boxes for $2 50 from The Dr, Williams' Medi- cine Co., Brookville, Ont. and adopted on motion of Messrs Moffatt and Rutherford.

JOHN BURGESS; Clerk, Huron County Bridges. With a view of • obtaining assistance in the building of county bridges a de. potation from Huron county waited on the Hon.

P., Warden Carrie and County Treasurer, Dr. Holmes. The deputation pointed ont that it was impossible for Huron county to receive assistance from the Government in connection with its roads system, the county at its own charges having put the roads in order before the scheme under whioh the Government pays one-third the cost of establishing a County road system came into operation, Daring 1857 and 1858 the county expended $600,000 on its roads, and since a farther at= of $75,000 has been paid out. The county also took over the toll roads. In view of the fact that these expenditures had been Undertaken, the deputation naked that the Government should Contribute one, third of the cost Of building county bridgee. There are in the county 111 wooden bridges which should be re- placed by steel wtrnotnrot, some 01 which will run to a' length of 500 feet, and next year the erection Of three bridges is oontentplated Which alone Great SLAUGHTER SALE Now on at D.
