Mr. Harrison was a native of God..
!erieh township where he we's born
seventy. years . ago. From his early
years he lead an iiidustrious life. His
firet empeeyer was Mr. limey, Bea-
com, then, of the Barfield Line, now
of Clinton, . who • says of bine :
"Tommy came to me to drive the ox
team. He ..was faithful and „always
Wanted to earn his wages. And he
has beele the same in all the years
eince." * For severae years he was en-
gaged as. thresher and ub
'sseettently
for a lengthy pei.f.od as framer. Many
of the best barns in the township
were' erected by "Tommy" Harrison.
For a great malty years he was de-
pety. 'returning °Meer in the ' fourth
division and neither partiality or

formance of hiedueies. .. .

The Plucky "Rovers" of Brucetield
"Fought the Good Fight."
At 8.15 on Friday evening last in the Intermediates of New Dundee vis-
ited the burg and tied the Rovers 1-
1: The following ,Saturday the loeals
put Dundee out of the running on
their own, grounkby a score of 3-1.
'The next in line' was Brussels • to
which tewn the Rovers journeyed on
June 24th and defeated the home
tease 1-0. The 13russelites returned
to Brueelleld the following Monday
evening and tied the locals, no gotta
being scored, but giving Brucefield the
,distriet by 1-0 on the round. On
"the Diggest, Town in Canada," Ber-
lin, the chamtlionship of the Inter-
mediate series was decided in
favor of the "Colonials" of Niagaea,
Falls, when in a sudden death game
on the athletie park they defeated
the sturdy Brumfield "Rovers" to
the tune of 4e-1. Thus one of ,the
greatest football series ever known in
Western Ontario ceded, and the scien-

satisfied to drdp out of the game for
this var, and at the sante time feel
proud in saying. "We have fought a
good fight.'
Let lie in brief review the history of
the 'glovers" for the past season. On
the 2ith of May Strathroy defaulted
to Drucefield owing to lack of fin -
antes and thus the Rovers were de-
.elartd the winners of the ione is-
trict. During the first week in June
Mermen Day the brawny eleven
from this village, eager for 'victory
entered.the Finals and clashed with
Niagara Ial1s, when they were, de-
feated by the Colonials 3-2. The
rettirn match was played on the park
grounds here en July Ilth, the Rov-
ers being victorious by a, sere
of 4-
8 still a tie .on the round. Irt order
to decide which team should claim the
cup a play -oft game wits called for
July lfith on neutral grounds re-

ers.

For the first time in the history
of this burg was a special train at
excursion rates run as to Berlin last
Friday and at 4.15 steamed into "the
biggest town in Canada" with over
two hundred persons on board. Never
before in the history of this village
has such interest been sholi.ii along

and women, -but this. is 11.bt the cese.
Thousands of mee are anaernie, and
attribute theit growing weakness to
mental or physical overwork, or
worry, and who do .not appear to
realize that they are swiftly ,paseleg
into that condition known as general
debility, and • 'teat ,their trouble is
due entirely to the fact that their
blood is Watery and impure. If the
trouble is not taken in time, they
pass from one 'Stage to anothert
the breakdowie is complete, and often
until a euro is beyond hope. To men
fn all walks or life there is no medi-
cine so valuable as Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills. If you feel jaded, weak or -
worn out these Pills will make that
rich, red blood that puts vim and
energy into every portion of the body.
Making 'good blood is the mission of.
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills . and good
blood is the one secret of good. health
and vigorous life. An 'excellent! rase
in point is that of Mr. R. W.

with a doctor brought me no consdl-
ation, Detelity was my trouble and
I was on the point of a breakdown.
`Canada in. your condition means

them. My life was simply an exist-
