J A story for all wh.• stand in need of perfect Heath. Miss Isabella Blake, of 3013 I'Iughson Street, Hamilton, Ont., is one of the fairest and best known young women in the ambitious city, '1'o -day, she is a picture of womanly health, vigor and beauty, and joyfully declares; "I am now a new moman, can enjoy life, and am as well. as I.wish to be." When !Hiss Blake makes the declara- tion that she is a "new woman," she does not wish it to be hnderstood that she has entered the ranks, and adopted the fads of those lightbraiued women who would usurp the legitimate posit. ions of men, and go through life clad in half muslin attire, with the fixed idea of altering the plias of an all wise Providence, and turning the world up- side down. Ah ! no; this is far from what Miss Blake wishes to to imply when she makes the statement that she i8 a "new woman." ., The new world woman then the or id valves is not the modern creature that C015 the open vest, t, exos, d shirt front four -in hand tie, straight and high col. lar, stiff Darby hat; who walks out ou our streets with cane in hand, giving evidence of empty brnin and unsatis- Gedvanicy. The true "crew woman," is perfectly represented by Mis Blake, made healthy, vigorous, strong and ac- tive by the use of Paine's Celery Corn - pound. rhis is the "woman" that senel. ble and rationable beings honhr and appreciate—the type of "woman" that blesses -home, and the world at large. Miss Blake, though a young woman, can relate a tate of sad experiences. In the; past, lions have stood ie her way threatening destruction; she knows that what sore atll.ctions arc, woinee to the rough grasy of disease; and at times, the cold touch of the destroyer, death, has made her shiver, and caused her to think of the dark gloom of the silent tomb, When Miss Blake's heart was faint, sick and void of hope; when all the doc- tors and medicines failed to do good, and when threatened with theft relent- less foe consumption, an angel of mercy suggested the use of a remedy that has brought' new life to thousands of poor sufferers in the past. Yes. it is Paine's Celery Compound that is recommended; it is used, and it a short time makes a "uew woman" from the material that the grave had battled for. These faets,dear reader, are not over drawn or colored in the least. Miss Blake and her friends will giadlp vouch for the truth of the statement that Paine's Celery Compound, and is aloha under God's blessing, was the agent t hat saved ;life at a critical junture. 'The following letter from Miss Blake is surely of sufficient weight to convince the most hardened unbeliever: -- "For years I suffered greatly, and was under the care of doctors who fin- ally told me I was going; into consump tion. I was becoming worse through the use of medicines, and I gave up my doctors. While in a very critical con- dition, not able to sleep or rest; always faint and weak, appetite and digestion bad, and my system run-down and little life left in me, 1 commenced to use Paine's Celery Compound. .After tak- ing one bottle I felt much relieved. I have used in all seven or eight bottles, and am as well as I wish to be, Many thanks for your great medicine." McGillivray: Mr. and Mrs. Charles Thompson, con. 18, have lost their little daughter Catharine through diphther- ia, Exposure to cold, damp wiuds, may result in pheumonia unless the system is kept invigorated with Hood's Sarsap aril la. Hensa]l:. Mr: Thomas Berry •and Wm. Cudmore left for the old country on Saturday with two car loads of horses. Bengali: After a most careful exam ination the hospital doctors at London, have pronounced Geo. Mitchell incur- able, his disease having reached the spice. Hensall: Mr. Jim Dalr•implo, who has been working with Mr. Hobkirk leaves shortly for Crediton where he will start a blacksmithing business of his own. Clinton: The strong wind of Mon day last caused Mr. Forrester a loss of about $100, by blowing over the flax mill smokestack, and injuring it so badly that a new oue is necessary. Mount Carmel: A $500 bell is being purchased for the Catholic church here. The congregation under the pastorate of Rev. Father Troyer, is in a very flourishing condition, The indebted- uess of the church has been paid and the funds for the hell are on hand. Parkhill: A telegram has just been received froin'Stockbridge in Michigan. containing the sad intelligence of the death of the wife of Mr. Arthur Beau- mont, son of the Rev. Dr. Beaumont of this town. The young lady had en- deared herself to a wide circle of friends by her amiable and christian disposition. Mitchell: While some children were playing with a bonfire one day last week, in Brantford, the clothes of the little four-year-old daughter of Mr. John Kerr, who was for some years con stable of this town, and whose wife is a daughter of Mr. Wm. Roberts, caught tire and was terribly burned. She was at once taken to the city hospital, where she died soon after. Clinton: The old adage, that "mis- fortune never COineB singly," finds aai illustration in the fancily of Mr. Jacob miller, of town. A short time ago one of the children fell and broke its leg; last week another of the children swat lowed a button,'atid hes boon quite sick therefrom; another was laid aside by a Moe opt her hand, while his eldest driughter, Miss Lily Miller, has been dangerously ill during the past week, Writers to thep cess who have Anything pleasant to say about any- hr dy usually sign their letters. Some write lettere for the, purpose of adver. risiut' thetns.eivee auci i;aluing ptlblla or private fat oie. Correspondents, on the; other head, who have to criticise or denounce gene rat preetiees or ieclivid nal acts, generally do not sign their letters; they prefer to shoot like an le - dean from a tree ;1'be newspaper edi. for has to play tree ,Intl :aka the: shots aimed at the Indian, We should rather refer tecl)oster practice. e.

Hensall: Mr. G. 0, Petty commences poerations at his pork packing estab- lishment this week, both killing and curing. Parkhill: Within the last eighteen years no less than 273 pupils have grad- uated with diplomas from the High School in this. town. Tuckersmith.'' No. 6 school has been closed for some time, on account of the whooping cough among the scholars, but is opened again this week. Clinton: While Mr. W. Canteion was lowering a barrel of syrup on Friday the barrel came iu contact with his leg, entirely cutting the boot from his foot and inflicting a severe wound. Seaforth: On Saturday last a little On of Mr. John Roach fell on an upris en spike in the sidewalk, the nail pen- tratcing his forehead about an inch, making a painful and ugly wound. Cromarty : Again death has visited our village and taken the little child of Mr. George Miller. 31e has been a great sufferer during the greater part of his short life, which was about nine months. Mitchell: A sad and serious accident occurred to Mr. Herman Hurlburt, of this town, ou Monday last. He was loading lumber at Melanchton station, county of Grey, and fell from a high pile on which he was working. When medical aid was secured it was found that he was very seriously injured and paralyzed from the shoulders down. Toronto officials have unearthed a counterfeit gang, who had printed and put out about $9,000 in 4s and 2s pur porting to be Dominion of Canada bills. So far as has been discovered, there has been issued 2,400 $2 bills, 1,000 $1 and a second issue of 4,000 $1, $9,000 in all, but very few of the last mentioned counterfeits have been put in circulation, The following is an interesting point in connection with the poll tax. De- fendant submitted that he was assessed jointly with his mother for property in Bruce CO,'t Y, although admitting a that his perm , cent residence was in Chat- ham. '1 he judge after a careful inves- tigation of the facts, gave judgment, finding the defendant liable, without costs. He ruled that the tax must be paid at the place of bona fideresidenco; that a citizen must be liable to taxa- tion at the place where he really, actu- ally and permanently lives, and that liabilitylcannot be averted by payment elsewhere. An exchange has received the fol lowing letter, which is a fah sample of the way in which a great many people, regard a newspaper, via, as a sort of machine for public use without remun enation of any !rind. The letter reads; Mr. Editor—I take my pen in hands 2 let you know that times is to bard for 2 take your paper. Its about all i ken' do to buy terbarker fur lnisel and boys, then besides the old woman, she hes to hey her snuff. I will pay you what i owe you next; fall when i sell my hogs it they don't die with the eel. lery. N. 13. --..We've got another baby at our hotts cunt a week ago last Thurs- day nit. Write Something nils° about it and send us 4 or 5 papers and wtxl send em Off' for yeti, Once more an occupation whirl! has been looked upon as exolusivoly man's has beon invaded by woman. Perhapsin time we shall have women engineers without number, but just now there is said to be but one of her, and she lives, in Chicago. She is qulot, modest and unassuming and is married. Her name is Blizaboth Gretton. The mysteries of machinery are to her an open book. The. inathemat}os, as well as the Mechanics, of her calling are familiar to her, She is at home equally before a lathe, at the throttle of a steam engine or iu adjust- Ing a rheosat in connection with an oleo - tele plant. She will not aclinit that she. "knows it all," averring she is but a student, exoopting iu the routine work of the engine room. "1 have always been interested in mechanics," said she to ,a reporter for the Chicago Inter Oooa0. "When I nlarried my husband I found an outlet for my craving for knowledge in this department of activity. He is a thorough mechanical engineer, woll post- ed in all that enters into the arts em- braced. under this general designation. "He helped me forward. It was only about two years before the World's Fair, however, that I put my knowledge to praotioal use. I then accepted an engage- ment with the company operating a panorama of the Crucifixion, as station- ary engineer, in charge of the entire plant. Later I was employed at Havlin's Theater." During the Exposition, Mrs. Gretton was appointed ongineer at the Woman's Building. Sho prizes highly the letter notifying her of her appointment from. the Secretary of the Board of Lady Managers, She filled the position most acceptably, "It was a delightful experience," said Mrs Grotton. "I had Llharge of the en- tire plant. I wonder," said she, "that others have not the same interest in these matters that I have. Never have I met a woman who had the same aspira- tions as myself. But I have not known a groat number of women." This is explained by the quiet' habits; the modest reserve and the evident home- loving ome- 1 ovr g in attributes of the lady. Seated in her parlor, with pictures and musical Instruments scattered about the room, it was hard to conceive of her as anything elso than a quiet "home lady." Her daughter, Mabel, laughingly entered into the conversation. "No, I have no mechanical bent, " said the young lady. "Music, more than any other art, has interested me. T canndt understand the pleasure mamma takes in machinery." "Bloomers? No, I have never. worn them," said Mrs. Grotton. "-r"r When 1 began my career they were not in general use. I always wore closely fitting skirts and narrow sleeves. 'Fes, I make my own dresses and have kept house continu- ously during the period I have been em- ployed at my trade." This said with a quiet smile. "I think I 5112511 continueto wear skirts," referring to the subject of dress again. "I have Hover had an accident worthy of the name, and I have burned myself while working around the dyne- nios.only once, and that not seriously,. and I=have never shirked responsibility or asked others to do the difficult work," she added. "I • have been inside boilers and have worli(art ;around moving machinery wherever required. Yes, and T have 'fired', too, when the fireman was siok 'or absent, and am prepared to do it. again." Itis almost inconceivable that a woman, and a "womanly" woman at that, should take delight in such heavy work as shoveling coal. But anything that comes. in the lino of her calling is acceptable to this one. Mrs. Gretton now desires to study thoroughly the art of electrical engineer- ing. She feels that she is not thorough- ly posted, the advance in Methods and their application having distanced her study. Shu will be helped in her studies by her husband, A. H. Gretton, who is the electrician for Havlin's Theater. The home life of this little family is thoroughly enjoyed by all its members. Sufficient of social activity is brought into the household by Miss Mabel, who is a favorite among her associates. Music, literature and earnest study help in thoughtful, earnest living, while the at- mosphere of love dominates all. Mrs. Gratton looks younger than her portrait that was taken some years ago. She was born forty years ago in Lockport, N. Y. Her, health is perfect. Possibly she will apply for a county or city position under the •civil -service rules. She has her license from the city, regularly attested, aucl feels competent to enter the race against men competitors. Relies of Charles e. Among curiosities lately acquired by the British Museum the firstplace is due to seine very remarkable acquisitions connected with Charles I., ono being a copy of the secret instructions to the commissioners -appointed for raising a forced loan in 16266. No other printed copy is atpresent known to exist; and Mr. Gardiner, while writing his history of the time, was obliged to refer to a manu- script in the State Paper Office. The interest of this copy is much enhanced by its being addressed to the County of Nottingham, where Charles was destined to commence the civil war sixteen years afterward, and by its bearing his signa- ture on the fleet page of the o tort. With l a this is to be mentioned a copy of the 1688 editon of Sternhold and Hopltins' "Psal tor," bound in silk, richly embroidered with silver with portraits of Charles and Henrietta Maria worked on the covers, and a bookmark with the motto: "Your captive Hing from prison bring;" it is enclosed in an embroidered silk sachet, and accompanied by a pair of richly worked kid gloves. The freshness of the objects, which are said to have belonged to Mrs. Osborn, ono of Queen Henrietta's ladies-in-waiting, is surprising. Another acquisition connected in some measure With Charles I. Is one of the seven ex- tant Scriptural Harnionfes," prepared by the community of Little Lidding, an- other of which, exoolited for the Ring at his own request, Was . already in the. museum. 4. Conditional Reward. Wonsan—My husband has disappeared, and may be dead. I want to offer a re- ward for his body. Chief of Police—Yes, Madam. A de- scription will be needed,ed, and this, with the reword, will no doubt prove offoetive. He may bo alive, you know,ln which ease we may soon be able to return him to you • Wonsan—I shan't pay a cont of reward unless he is returned dead, just rel i niher that. ou Can .Believe The testimonials published to behalf of Hood's Sarsaparilla. They are written by honest people, who have .actually ft}utld in their oriel experience that Hood's Sarsaparilla purities the blood, creates an appetite, strengthens the system and absolutely and pnrmaneut- ly cures all diseases caused by impure or defieient blood, Hood's. Pilis for the liver and bowels, act promptly, easily and effectively. Seaforth: Dr. \ ts suliri formerly erly o 1' Strafe, who has been' residing in town for some time, intends removing to Mil- verton shortly, where he will resume the practice of his profession. Hensall: • Mr, D. Weismillev was in Ottawa last week, He leaves town be- fore long' with his family to take up his abode in G('derich.
