No other medicine ever possessed so much curative power, or reached such enormous sales, or made such won- derful cures, as Hood's Sarsaparilla. It is undoubtedly the best medicine ever made to purify, vitalize and en- rich the blood. That is the secret of its success. Read this statement: "When my son was 7 years of age, he had rheumatic fever and acute rheuma- tism, which settled in his left hip. He was so sick that no one thought there was any help for him. Five sores broke out on his thigh, which the doctor said were roffula sores. We had three different doctors. Pieces of bone calve out of the sores. The last doctor said the leg would have to be cut open and the bone scraped, before he could get well. Howard became so low that he would eat nothing, and one doc- tor said there was no chance for him. " One day, a newspaper recommending Hood's Sarsaparilla was left at our door. We decided to try this medicine. Howard commenced taking it the last of February, after having been sick for a year and a - ure half. He hadn't taken it a week before I saw that his appetite began to improve, and then he gained rapidly. I gave him five bottles, when the sores were all healed and they never broke out again. The crutches he had used for four years were laid aside, as he had no further use for them. I give all the credit to Hood's Sar- saparilla." lips. ADA L. MOODY, Fay Street, Lynn, Mass.

He was taken ill in his office about three weeks ago and removed to his home, but symptoms of paralysis appeared and he gradually sank. Yesterday a stroke came which ren- dered him unconscious and after linger- ing 24 hours he passed away. Sir Joseph Hickson was born at Otterburn, North- umberland, England, in the year 18$0, receiving his education in his native county. He was yet a lad when he en- tered the service of the Northeastern Railway of England, in which he gained his first knowledge of railway operations that was destined to stand him in such good stead in after years. After some time with this company young Hickson left to fill a position of trust on the Maryport Sc Carlisle Railway, in which he served with credit till 1851 when he left for Manchester, there to take service with the Manobester,Sheiliolcl 3a Lincoln- shire Railway, in which his promotion was very rapid. Ten years afterward he became assistant to the General Manager of the road, and while in this position he attracted the attention of Mr. (after- ward Sir) Edward Watkin, then corn- misioner and afterwards President of the GrandTrunk Railway of Canada, Mr. Watkin was considered even at that time one of the railway magnates of the day. Mr. Hickson was by him appointed to the high position of chief accountant of the Grand Trunk in December, 1801, and accortlinlgy left England in January, 1S62, for Canada, coming to Montreal, where he has since resided. His career since that date has been one of uninter- rupted success. He soon become Secretary and Treasurer for the company, which position he filled to the satisfaction of all until the resignation of Mr. C. J. Brydges, Managing director of the Grand Trunk Railway, in 1874, whom he suc- ceeded as General Manager of the system. As General Manager, Sir Joseph ' con- tinued until 1890, when he retired from his arduous post. it was in January of that year that be received, at the hands of her Majesty, the honor of knighthood in recognition of the ability he displayed in the management of the great railway of Canada and for the valuable services he rendered to this country in the way of developing Its industries and resources, a fitting tribute to one who had devoted the best part of his life for the benefit of the country of his adoption. HAMILTON. Sisters aI St. Joseph-'Itescued frown Drown- ing—An A IIcaste r Farmer,tobbed. Hamilton, Tan. 4. -The following young ladies received the habit in St. Joseph's Convent amid impressive cere- monies on Saturday: Miss Gormioan, of Brantford, to be known In religion as Sister Mary Joachim; Miss Greene, Hayesland, Sister Mary St. Anthony, and Miss Daly, Campbellford, Sister Mary of the Holy Cross. A lad named Gus Vila, whose home Is on Bay street north, rescued a compan- ion, Charles Douglas, Simooestreet, from drowning in the bay on Saturday after- noon. The customs returns from this port show a decrease of $6,554.21 last year, the figures being: For 1895, $49,110.21; for 1896, $42,850. The inland revenue re- ceipts were as follows: December, 1896, $40,225.41; Decem ber, 1896, $46,400.86. Increase for 1895, $6,146.45. The Spectator Printing Company has been given the contract of printing In- spector J. H. Smith's History of Went• worth County at $1.40 a page, the County Council paying the cost of publication. The police are looking for the thieves who broke into the Victoria Curling Rini: and stole $10 from the safe. Mr. Jambe Ray, an .Anoaster farmer, reports that two masked robbers entered his place while he was alone on New Year's night, and while ono of them pointed a revolver at him the other secured from the /armor a bag contain- ing $307. The Sealers' Claims Commission. Victoria, Jan. 3. --The value of vessels and technical evidence as to the cost of machinery and equipment on the steam schooners seized, from which claims are made, have made up the major portion of the testimony taken by the Behring claims commission during the past week. The daily sessions have been uniformly barren of general interest although some little amusement was caused by Captain Then. alagnesen who was called by the United States, saying in cross-examina- tion that in 1890 he had made his best catches in Behring Sea in September, and those who said September was not a good month for sealing did not know what they were talking about Burglars at Aurora. Aurora, Jon. 5. -Last evening, the re- sidence of Mr. Wm. Hastings was bur- glarized while the family was at church. On Mr. Hastings's returning he was surprised to find the front door open and muddy footprints on the carpets. Au overcoat, muffler and a silver cream jug were missing. Evidently the thief would have secured considerable more booty if he had not bean disturbed by the return of Mr. Hastings. A Freight Train Wrecked. St. Louis, Mo., Jan . 4. -The Missouri Pacific freight No. 218 ran into a land- slide near New Haven, Mo.,67 milee. west of here yesterday morning, killing Engineer Homer Evans, Fireman Horkap, and Head Bralcesman J. E. McQueen, all of this city. The locomotive and twelve cars went into the Missouri river, along which the track ran. The landslide was caused by the heavy 'rains of Saturday. Franchise Extended. Niagara Falls, N. Y., Jan. 4. --The statement is made here to -day that the franchise of the Niagara Falls Power, Company for the, building of. the Cana- dian power tunnel has been extended for four years. Nothing definite, however, can be learned in the matter. Chief Engineer Breckenridge said he understood that the extensionwill be made if it is not already made. St. Thomas. St. Thomas, Jan. 3. -Three tramps, John Williams, ' Peter Matemore and William McCue, were arrested on Friday after a hard fight' by. Constable Palmer- ston, assisted by a number. of citizens. The tramps were holding- their head- quarters near the G. T. R. station. They were to -day sentenced to six months in the Central Prises each on two charges,. the sentences to run concurrently. Moorins ert, La.,was almost wiped gp out by a cyclone. Four pereons were killed in the wreck, THE NEW YEAR.. How' You May feel Happier and Better than in the Past. Paine's Celery Compound Will Enable You to Thoroughly Enjoy Life. Act Promptly and Your Fondest Desires Will Be Realized. Many' of our readers can truthfully confess that the year just gone by was to them a period of pain, suffering, disappointment and wretchedness. Some were laid on beds of sickness, weak and helpless; others, ailing and almost broken down, were just able to move about to imperfectly attend to daily duty and work. The sick and ailing ones met with many failures and disappointments in their efforts to re-. gain health. Doctors failed to cure them, and the very ordinary medicines of our times failed to bring back the blush of health to the pale and wan face. Those of our readers who were un- happy last year may this year throw off their burdens and shackels, if they use that marvellous source of health. giving-Paine's Celery Compound - that contributed to the happiness of so. many thousands in past years, There is no necessity here to enlarge on what Paine's Celery Compound has done or is doing at the present time. Every day it is making well rheumatic, neuralgic, dyspepsia and sleepless mor• tals, and giving a new life to those afflicted with kidney, liver and blood diseases. All classes unite in praising and re- commending Paine's Celery Compound as the most effective of medicines. The more physicians know of it, the more do they earnestly recommend it for the sick. If you would be well, happy and vigorous all the yeat, begin at once with nature's healer and life -giver, Embro seems a very healthy place in which to live. During the year 1896 out of a population of about 700 there was but one death, that of the late Dr. Geo. Duncan, who died on the 5th of January. Eugene Labutte was brought before the Magistrate at Windsor Wednesday morning on the charge of kissing Mrs. Alice Robert. There was no attempt to deny the offence, but it appeared to have been done in a frolic, and the magistrate let Labutte off on his pay- ment of the costs, which amounted to $4.13. Adam Ross has been commi"ted for trial 'at Ingersoll on the charge of felon- iously entering a church in West Ox- ford, stealing a Communion table cloth, and other things, and maliciously dam- aging church property. His accom- plice, a man named Shibe de Wolfe, who got away when Chief Skirving was in chase of the pair, has not yet been heard of. A special letter to the Chatham Plan- et from Bothwell pricks the oil boom bubble. The fickle goddess, it is said, has withheld her smiles from most of those who came to Bothwell expecting to make a quick fortune by produc eocl. There have been fifty wells drilled in the entire field since May,1896', and it may safely be stated that out of the entire number there are not exceeding twenty wells it will pay to operate, many of which will not produce more than one or two barrels per day. The total daily production of these wells will not exceed 200 barrels and- when it is stated that there is one well in the number yielding 75 barrels daily, it will be plain to be seen that the aver- age production per well will fall far below the figures usually ' given. There are some thirty different com- panies or individuals now operating in the field, yet the only ones producing any oil are Walker's, Elliott's, Camer- on's, Wright's, Puddicomb's, and Emer- son's. The producing area of the Bothwell field, as shown by the wells drillhd in various parts of the district, is very small, and the oil rock proper seems to exist in an exceedingly nar- row belt. Leases in the charmed circle are practically all taken. Modern Furniture. We have made a special 'effort to have our new styles of Furniture for the fall trade so attractive a:; possible.
