You Need Advice—We All Need It
Sometimes.
1f every man were to depend en-
tirely on his own idea or act only on
bis initiative at all times, the world
would stand still.
The appeal of reactionaries of all
Uwe* bas been, " Do oot change,"
"Insist on what you are used to,"
"Leave us alone." These are the
slogan• of "standpatters" of ail ages.
and they invariably adopt this atti-
tude from motives of reit-interest.
Take the matter of packaged medi-
cines, for inotience. Tbe campaign of
" insist no what you ask for is a des-
perate efert to stern back the public
demand for a square deal and greater
value for their money both in guan-
dty and quality.
The oid idea of mysterious and
m*gi&formulas is about played out.
The druggists are meeting the public
demand for better value by selling
peepaeatioos of which they know the
formulae, and which they know to
contain only pure ingredients com-
pounded in re way that isnot injurious
and is best. fitted for the purpose for
,which they are intended.
Don't tete too numb stork in the
frantic efforts made by some parties
to make you believe that the druggist
in advising you is attempting to de-
ceive and rob. Is he likely to do so?
Could he stay in business if be did?
Think it over.

The Na-Dru-(io Almanac for 1912.
A goes' almanac is ever welcome.
The annual number of the Na-Dru-On
Almanac, the 1912 edition, now out, is
if anything more interesting and more
useful than its two predecessors.
Besides the usual solar and lunar
tables and dates of eclipses. the Na-
Dru-Co Almanac gives much infornut-
tion which it would be difficult to find
elsewhere. Examples of this ate the
map of altitudes, time tables of the
world, figures on aria, population,
exports rend i,nporte, records of Cana-
dian Premiers, Governors -General,
etc.
Nearly all leading druggists have
copies of the Na-Dru-Co Almanac for
their eustoinera, or it may be had by
writing the National Drug t Chemi-
cal Co., of Canada, Limited. Montreal.

DsA'ru of JOHN Fuca-HKR.—On
Monday. January 13th, the death of
John Fletcher took place in the Kio-
^ardine hospital at the age of sixty-
nine yearn. The deceased, who was it
well-known farmer of Huron town-
ship, was born in Lochaber, Scotland,
and on coming to Canada resided first
in Ekfrid township. Middlesex county,
and afterwards in Heron township on
the boundary a short distance west of
Lochalsh, where he lived until about
four years ago. in June, 1908, he
suffered a paralytic stroke, on account
of which be was an invalid up to the
time of his death, having been for
some time past in the hospital at Kin-
cardine. The deceased had many
friends, being a man of a hearty and
generous disposition. He was a man
of giant form and was known as one
of the strongest men in Bruce county,
and in the early days of the Lucknow
Caledonian games he was to be found
on the tug-of-war team. One char-
acteristic
haracteristic he had was that, being
averse to travel, he did not care to be
any distance from home. and it may
be mentioned as something unique
that be never rode on a railway train
in his life. He was & Reformer in
politics and a Presbyterian in religion.
Tbe funeral took place from the resi-
dence of Mrs. K. Rom, 2nd concession,
Huron, on Wedne.da , the 17th, and
was largely attended. The remains

of Port Arthur ; Mrs. Rod. McKenzie.
Stolt Ste. Marie ; Mrs. McDonald, of
Kincardine township ; Mrs. Allan Mc-
Kenzie, Lochalsh, and Mr. Kenneth
Ross, god cwoession, Huron.
Ax RIPLOSION,—Gast Wednesday
evening the regular meeting of the
Young People's Guild was held in the
jPreshyterian church and it was treat-
ed to a nervation not intended to be On
the evening's program. This was a
minor explosion in the acetylene gas
plant which is used for lighting pur-
poses
unposes and it caused considerable ex-
citement for the time being. It ap-
that. those present having some
iffeulty with tbe lights, they bad
sent for the caretaker, John Cowan.
Wben Mr. Cowan arrived, be and the
pastor. Rev, J. S. Hardie, with Wm.
Drinkwater went into the room which
communicates with the rear of the
basement by a door and in which the
gag plant is installed. While Mr.
Cowan was working around theappar-
tTus. suddenly there was an explosion
similar to the discharge of a gun. the
sheet -iron reservoir, in which the gas
is produced by subjecting carbide if
calcium to the action of water, was
torn apart at the riveted line of junc-
tion of the two sections, the glass in
the window placed in the "partitIsn
urrounding the plant was shattered
and one nian was missing. Fortun-
ately the three men in the room ere
caped injury, although struck by toe
flying missiles. Meanwhile there was
a cnmwotinc amongst the yang
people gathered in the hasement, but
it should be maid to the great credit of
the young ladies that they exhibited
remarkable self-control, and they all
remained where they were. The same
could be said of the majority of the
young then, but it is understood th►t
all previous splinting records were
broken that evening. The cause of
the explosion was as follows : Some
water bad leaked into the pipe which
oonducts the gots from the reservoir,
in which it i. generated, into the stor-
age
topage tank situated close by the reser-
voir. During the recent cold spell.
this water bad flrosen, and the ice
prevented the free e.caps of the gas
through the,pipe while it was being
generated in the reservoir. and the
latter exploded from the resultant
excessive high pressure.
