SaUor Who Could Hardly Wall:
for Pain
| “I am a seaman,” he writes, “and
jhave travelled all over the world in
sailing ships. Some time ago I was
taken bad with sciatica and rheuma
tism. If I went cut I had to rest two
pr three times before I got home.
One day an old mate of mine asked
me what was the matter, and he said
’.get some Kruschen Salts’. So I got
some and I am pleased to say I felt
a great ease. After continuing for a
week, I was a great deal better and
on the Saturday I was back on my
ship,”—T.R.W.
The pains of rheumatism and sciat
ica are frequently caused by too
much acid accumulating in the body,.
Two of the ingredients of Kruschen
Salts are notable for their work in
dissolving uric acid and other ingred
ients of these Salts assist the internal
organs to eliminate the dissolved uric
acid from the system.
82 years young that day and is al-
way an active worker and attends
the meetings regularly. Mrs. Wheel
er thanked the members for the many
gifts, The singing of the National i
Anthem closed the meeting and lunch |
was served by the hostess assisted by |
Mrs. A. Manning, Mrs, C, H. Wade
and Mrs, J, L. Stewart.

THOMAS FELLS, Auctioneer.
R. S. HETHERINGTON,
Wingham, Ontario,
Solicitor for the Mortgagee.
This morning I read of the death
of Wm. Earngey, of Gorrie, and the
name stirred up memories of the
many good people whom I met in and
about Gorrie when I was first stat
ioned there in 1876 (61 year ago).
The Earngey family was among the
400 or more members of the Meth
odist Church who were placed under
my care.
I loved the people, and being in-r
terested in their social and religious
interests, I have found it a great joy
to remember and keep in touch with
them through the passing decades. I
readily recall from among the many
aged ones, the names: Richard Dar
lington, Henry Smith, S. P. Dovland,
George and Samuel Greer, Wm.
Dane, the large Leech family: Rob
ert, Edward, James, Wm. Henry, Jo
seph John and Revs. George and
Webster W. Of this family only the
following remain, (residing near De
troit), Edward W., Mrs. Robert Ev
ans and Mrs. R. Holmes; and in
Wingham, Mrs. John R. Code, for
merly of Trowbridge.
Of the earlier residents of Wing
ham, Dr. Fowler, Robt. Mclndoo,
John Neelands, Mr. Flack, F. G.
Sparling, John Kerr and Geo. Mason.
By far the greater number of these
have fallen asleep. The writer has
been spared to pen these lines of
grateful recognition. I do not con
tend the former times were better
than these in every respect but they
were great and glorious days and a
grateful memory sees them in a cloud
of glory.
I have owed much of the enjoy
ment of life to my friendships and
most of those named in this brief
sketch have passed on to their more
congenial and permanent dwelling
place in the world of light, and I
seem to hear once again voices that
have long been silent, and to
those faces smile that I have
long since and lost a while.”

BELGRAVE
Institute Held Interesting Meeting
The Belgrave Women’s Institute
met at the home of Mrs. N. Keating
for their March meeting on Tuesday
afternoon last week, with a good at
tendance present. Miss Edith Proc
ter, Vice Pres., presided. The meet
ing was opened with the Ode and
Prayer. Mrs. Keating reported that
there had been a generous response
to the appeal for clothing for a needy
family and this was delivered soon af
ter the last meeting. A donation for
special prizes was also given to the
School Fair. A donation was also
made to the Cemetery Board. It was
decided to co-operate with the Farm
ers* Club in regards to a short course.
Petitions had been presented to each
Council to enquire the price of street
lighting. A donation towards the
Cemetery work was also received
from Miss Marian Anderson.
The Roll Call was well responded
to with an exchange of apron pat
terns. Mfs, H. Wheeler was in charge
of current events. Violin selections
by Mrs. N. Montgomery accompanied
by Elaine Walsh at the piano, were
very appropriate for the date and
were much enjoyed, A splendid ad
dress was given by Mrs. S. Procter
on beautifying our homes outside.
Mrs, R. McCrea gave a reading. A
very interesting and unusual part of
the program took place at this time
when the President, Mrs, Keating,
presented Mrs. M, A, Wheeler, one
of cur charier members, with a mis
cellaneous shower of gifts in hoftor
of her birthday. Mrs. Wheeler was
Sunday last was Palm Sunday.
During the past year twe heard this,
day referred to .as “Fig Sunday? We
did not understand what Sunday was
meant so we made inquiries and
found that Palm Sunday, the Sunday
before Easter, is sometimes referred
to in England as Fig Sunday.
On further inquiry we learned that
in some of the Midland counties of
England they still celebrate Palni
Sunday by eating figs. Back of that
is the ancient tradition that the tree
into which Zaccheus climbed to wit
ness the Lord’s entry into Jerusalem
on the Sunday before His crucifixion
was not a sycamore tree but a fig
tree,
Not important, blit curious* and to
us, interesting.
