Let Musicfrighten the
Lives ° of Your Children
Let them grow up in an atmosphere of good music. --
Let 'their appreciation of the beautiful things oink be developed
by good music.
Let them receive the indelible imprint of culture and refinement
through the medium of good music.
While the young minds are open to receive such impressions,
begin their musical, and higher, education with
22;e EDISO
"The Phonograph with a Soul"
This wonderful instrument brings the world of music into your
home ; re-created by the world's greatest artists. No mance where
you live, your children can have the same musical advantages as
though living its the great cities during the height of the musical season.
The New Edison does not merely imitate. It re-creates. No
human car can distinguish artist from phonograph. The famous Edison
tone tests have proved this, not once, but more than r Soo times.
Start the Children's musical education to -day, by bringing them

Good To The Editor
Mr. J. J. Johnston, editor of the
Mildmay Gazette,, whore we believe to
be it temperance man, tells the following
little story about himself: "Some per -
eon with more money than •wit nearly
managed to get the editor into trouble
last week. On Wednesday, . after the
arrival of the noon train, the tigent call-
ed up the Gazette, and,eek et if twe were
expecting a parcel from Montt'i►1...
replied that the only shipment that
Wight come to this office from Montreal
would be some advertising cuts The
agent informed us, however, that the
ps.reel did not contain newspaper cuts,
but was suspiciously like a case of whis-
key. The shipment was very distinctly
addressed to die Gazette Publishing
Company, but we ordered the agent not
to have the goods delivered. It was nut
long, however, until there were further
tieeelopuients in the case. It appears
that License Inspector Pilots of Strat-
ford, 'learned that a case of Minor was
en route to Mildmay, and he eel, outto
trace it up. At nine o'clock in the even
ing Inspectors Elliot and White called
at the depot, and confiscated the shiji...�`
went, and carried it oil to Walkerton.
Dbeanwhile, we suppose the party who
hoped to get the bonze is feeling very
much disappointed. Perhaps he intend-
e.i it as an act of kindness tri the editor,
but we would prefer hint to show his
generosity ,in other .ways."
