NOTES AND COMMENTS A Great Doctor Speaks of a Great Remedy Mr. E Norman Lewis, M P for West Huron, gives notice in the Com- mons of a bin to amend the provisions of the Orbnival Code respecting assaults as women awe children. It not only provides for more ad•gnete puniahmett of assailants of woman, bat proposes for the senteneiug to death of any man who criminally assaults a girl under fourteen years: of age. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills Strongly Endorsed by one of the World's. Greatest Doctors -Hope for the Sick. Dr. Williams' PiukPills fel' Pale People is the only advertised medicine in the world that has lied the publio endoreation of a doot •r of • world wide reputation. Such an endorsation stamps tbie medi• cepa as being worthy of the confidence of every person who is sink or ailing. A great doctor would not risk his reputa- tion unless he was absolutely confident, through a personal knowledge, that Dr. Williams' Pink Pills will do what is claimed for them Dr Giuseppe Lap• poni, one of the greatest pbysiciens of modern times, for years the trusted medical adviser of the Pope, writes the following strong letter in favor of Dc. Williams' Pink Pills. • 1 certify that I have tried Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills in four cases of the simple anaemia of development After a few weeks of treatment. the result Dame fully np to my expsotatioue For that reason I shall not tail in the future to extend the use of this laudable pre- paration not only in the treatment of other morbid forms of the category o anaemia or chlorosis, but also in oases Ie has been offioially announced that the final session of the present Provincial Parliament will open on February 5th. The session will be a stormy one, for it is the intention of the Premier to go to the country during the latter part of the summer, and the Opposition, led by the .Hon. A. (. MoKay, will put forth every effort to strengthen their position in the coming campaign. The sessional program will probably include a redis- tribution measure, new legislation re- garding ednoation, the revision of the Mines Aot, and a large amount of private legislation. Some of oar farmers wonder why their sons have a desire to quit the farm, preferring town or city life. The cause is with the farmer himeelf. With a boy on the farm it is perpetual toil in . good weather, all through the busy season, and perpetual leanness in bad weather, and most of the winter season. The time when the farmer has leisure is at the ` very time when they cannot get away from home on account of their isolation and bad roads. The boy hun- gers for company and his heart revolts against this unendurable lonliness, and to free himself from it, walks miles through mod to spend an hour at the country store. We are glad tomote that. in some sections of our country the young people of both sexes have broken through these barriers, and established farmers' clubs and little s3oieties of one sort or another. This should be encour- aged, and will prove a great tonic to keep. young people on the farm and make life to them worth living. -Card- well Sentinel. of neurasthenia and the (Signed) DR GITJS Via dei 74e.., E LAPPONI, raoobi 332, Rome The "simple an mia of development" referred to by Lapponi ie of oourse that tired, let aid condition of yourg girls wh se ovelopment to womanhood is tardy, whose health, at the period of that development, is so often imperil- led. His opinion of the valve of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills at shat tune is of the highest scientifio authority, and it confirms the many published oases in which anaemia and other diseases of the blood, as well as nervous diseases, have been cured by these pills, which, it need hardly be mentioned, owe their efficacy to their power of making new blood, a':d and thus eating directly upon the diges- tive and nervous system. In all oases df anaemia, 1deoline, indigestion, and all troubles due to bad blood, and all affec- tions of the nerves. es St. Vitus' dance, paralysis and locomotor ataxia, they are commended to the public) with all the greater confidence because they have f { the strong endorsation of this great 1 physioian. rorromoommorl vantage of the Short Course at the Agricultural College in judging stook, seed, &o. The wonder is that many more do not take advantage of the practicable training available. BELGRAYE The annual congregational meeting of Euox Presbyterian Church was held on Tuesday of this week. Rev. J. J. Hastie was called to the ohsir and Peter W. Scott was secretary. The total con- tributions for the year for all purposes amounted to 41152, divided into $792 for stipend and other congregational ex- penses and $360 for missions. The Sabbath school, Women's Foreign Mis- sionary Sooiety and Mission Band gave encouraging reports. The session re- ported 79 families and 160 members. All the retiring officers were re-elected. It was decided to discontinue the old way of having collectors ea ling at each home for subscriptions to minister's salary and in future distribute envelopes which can be returned on the coileotion plate twice a year. It was agreed to celebrate the anniversary this year by bolding an old time tea -meeting in October. A very pleasant event took place at the Ethel Parsonage on Tuesday after- noon Jany 14th, when Mise Hannah J. Mills, one of Ethel's fairest young ladies, was united in marriage to Geo. W. Elliott, a prosperous young farmer of Molesworth. Mr. and Mrs. Elliott are 1 having in u few days for Pilot Mound, Man., where they purpose taking up housekeeping. Tneir many friends here wish them much happiness and great prosperity in their home. Life Will be Shortened. ' Those who fail to observe the funda- mental rules of health, especially those who neglect constipation, --will have short lives. Costiveness ruins health, destroys vitality. weakens the blood, causes dyspepa/a nervousness and in- somnia. Why nit use Dr. Hamilton's Pills and be oared. Take one or two pills -before retiring and you're well next morning. No. gripe or pain. no headache or nausea when you use Dr. Hamilton's Palls, --they cure scientific- ally. Positively the best laxative known, 25 cents at all dealers. ORM Mies Belle McKibben will make; an extended visit with relatives in the West. We wish her an enjoyable time. Rev. Mr. Kerney, of Clinton, a former resident of the 7th con., of Grey town- ship, has accepted a call to the diocese of Chicago and left for the Windy City last week. Last week Oliver Turnbull, 15th con., went to Guelph where he is taking ad - 1 It Quiets the Cough live Stock Markets. Toronto, Jan. 21. -While opinion eon - Rioted somewhat sharply as to the state of business at the City Cattle Market to -day, some affirming that business was good and prices even firmer than last week, and others as positive that trade was bad and prices lower, the fact re- mained that for good butcher there is as good a demand as last week,. and that in some few oases higher prices were pt:id for both export and for butcher cattle. For the ordinary run of medium to good loads of butcher cattle there was to -day a good demand and prides were steady. There was, however, a large proportion of poor common butcher cattle offering in to day's run, and as the same may be said of all reoeet runs, the market is more than well supplied with this class of stuff, and prices are just a little easier for the commonest cattle. In the export market a load of very choice cattle sold at 35.25. In the butcher class the choicest pioked cattle sold at $4 80 bo 35. and good straight loads at 34.15 to $4 40. The hog market has become much weaker again, to -day's quotations show- ing a still further decline of 25o from last week. The total run to -day was 78 care, with 1223 head of cattle, 830 sheep, 200 hogs, and 104 calves. The following are the quotations: Exporters' cattle- Per 100 lbs. 34 50 35 25 4 35 4 25 3 50 3 50 :ROAMS. Richard Proctor, the well known Tax Collector of this township, has returned his roll of 1907 with every cent of the large sum of 36,392 74 collected. This is the largest amount ever oolleoted in Morris for one year and Mr. Proctor's record will be hard to surpass. We aro very sorry to report that Mrs. Gilbert Speir, an old and worthy resi- dent of the 4th line, had the misfortune to fall at the residence of her son, John Speir, and break her right arm at the wrist and also her thigh. As Mrs. Speir is over 88 years of age a shook of this kind is not nearly so easily overcome as in a younger person. We hope she will soon be better.
