Summer -diarrhoea of babies, ty

house fly. We face this'danger every
yeai’ during the hot weather. Lee-

health authorities and other experts
have done a lot towards educating
people to fight this menace.
However, you cannot educate a
fly and flies, being no respecters of
persons, still invade "out homes and
stores With impunity. When you
consider that the bacteria on a single
fly’s hairy body may number five
million and that these carriers of
germs are born and bred iii filth
which may be deposited in food or
on the infant in his cot, it can readily
be understood ho.W important it is to
exterminate every- fly without de
lay;
And flies, if left alone, multiply
phenomenally, tool Of the many
methods for killing flies, probably
the quickest most humane and most
deadly is to place a few Wilson’s Fly
Pads in the most suitable cplafces
throughout the house. They’re in*
conspicuous and kill all the flies—
once and for .all. It’s such, an easy
way to eliminate the fly menace in
our homes and stores and thus make
our tcommnnity a< healthier place in
which to live.
And another ’point of interest to
people who suffer from these

a sure-death remedy, just a tea*

HURON COUNTY FOUNDED
WQ YEARS AQO
The following article by Arthur R,
Ford ■ is from the London1 Free
Press.
Huron Cpunty will celebrate this
year the IQOth anniversary ef its founding. It was in 18<i that the
county was organized and given its
official seal. Hurop County in the
past century has contributed much
to the development of Canada and
particularly' to the West. It was
settled originally by a fine stock
from the British Isles.- Theix* sous
and grandsons had still the pion*
eeriug blood, in them and when the
West -opened up they migrated in
large numbers.
A list of Huron County hoys who
have helped make the West would
fill this 'column. Just a few might
be mentioned. 'Hon, James 'Green
way, who was premier of Manitoba
for 1$ years, came from Centralia,
and 'before he went West was mem
ber for'Routh Huron in the iCana'd-
ian House. Two (Saskatchewan pre
miers icame from Huron County,
Hon. W. iG. Martin, whose fathex*
was a well-known Presbyterian min
ister at Exeter, and Hon. James G.
Gardiner, now federal ministex4 of
agriculture. Mr, Martin is today
chief justice of Saskatchewan. Mr,
Gardiner was born at Farquhax*,
near’ Exeter. The late Hon. Robert
Weir, minister of .agriculture in the
Rennett ministry, was born at Wing
ham. Hon. W, F. Kerr, minister of
natural resources in the present
Saskatchewan Government, is a na--
five of Goderich, Then we must
not overlook Hon. William Aber-
hart, the Rocial Credit premier of
Alberta. He was born on a farm
near Seaforth. The list could be
extended indefinitely. <
•Perhaps the two greatest notables
born in (Huron County were Sir
John Willison and -Sir William Ot
ter. Six- John was born xxeai’ Var- :
na. He has an interesting story io I
tell in his “Reminiscences”- of his !
early days on the farm and clerking
in a store in Huron County, Sir
William was also born on ’ a farm,
near Clinton. Few Canadians -have
had a more distinguished military
career. He fought in, the F'enian
Raid.an’d commanded the column in
the Northwest Rebellion ,,of 1885
which marched on Battleford. Lat
er he captured the Indian chief,
Poundmaker. He commanded the
first Canadian contingent to South
Africa and was wounded in action
in H900. He was the first Canad
ian to be chief of the general staff.
During the Great War he was too
Old for active service and was dir

Huron County was originally
settled by the Canada Land Com
pany and was part of the Huron
Tract which was granted . to that
company, consisting of what is now
Huron and Perth Counties and parts
of Middlesex, Waterloo and Welling
ton. It was in 1827 that Dr. Wil

warden of the forests of the Can
ada Land Company, along,with John
Galt, commissioner of the company;
Mahlon Burwell, surveyoi4 for tlie
Province of Ontario and first mem

John Macdonald, surveyor for the
company, arrived at Lake Huron

ther, Capt, Dunlop, spent most of
theii’ lives in Huron County, The
old home, “iGarbraid”, which they
built ■overlooking the Maitland Riv-
. er, has tong since disappeared.
Here the brothers kept bachelor’s
hall. They were a remarkable pair
of men, although the doctor was the
most picturesque. A story is told,
which has now become a part of
Huron County tradition, that they
had a Highland housekeeper, who
was devoted to them and overlook- I ed their occasional hard-drinking
; bouts. They were afraid she was
goihg to leave them and decided
that* one of them would -have to
marry her. The doctor suggested
that they toss to see which would
-be bridegroom. The doctor won—
which is not .surprising seeing that
the doctor tossed a double-headed
penny—so “Lou” became by a -mar
riage in which “Black Jimmy”, the
butler, officiated, Mrs. Dunlop. It
was of dpubtful legality, so the bride
wisely insisted on having the cere
mony repeated in more regular fprm
at a later date. . Rhe continued to
look after both the brothers to the
end.
The captain, her husband, -died
‘first. .Some time later came the
news that the doctor, then holding a
Government post-.as superintendent
of the Lachine Canal, was danger
ously ill. “Lou” faithfully jour
neyed to his -bedside and nursed him
to ‘the end, and then in the Indian
summer set out to bring4 his body
back to the .old home/ At Hamilton
it was given a temporary resting
'place in the plot o.f Sir-.Allan Mc
Nab, but when winter improved the
roads she continued ’her journey
with the old ^leaden coffin and at
last .laid the. coffin next to his bro
ther’s beside the Maitland, The
old “Tiger” as the doctor was known
from his exploits in :big' game hunt
ing in India before he came to Can
ada, has become almost a legend in
Huron County.
The original log house at/Goder
ich ovei’looking the Maitland? was
f replaced by a larger residence about
183'3.■ Here Thomas Mercer Jones,
who was for many years .commis
sioner of the company, made his
home and it was the headquarters
for the company. His wife was the
daughter of the redoubtable Bishop
Strachan and for 20 years it was
the business and social centre of
the community. Musicians Were
even brought from far > away Lon*
don for an occasional gala ball, The
old house is still standing and is
owned by the Town of Goderich,
though' rented as a hotel, known
■ fi.s the Bark House.
A .Correspondent in the Free
Fress recently suggested that it
should be restored and preserved as
a museum. It is a suggestion with
which we heartily agree. It is. not
only the most .historic residence in
Huron County, but of the whole of
Western Ontario. It is time we
