Councils Act of 1 • THEY KNOW ABOUT IT OUT WEST Mr. R. Holmes is the Ministerial candidate in West Huron. He has just published • an inspiring letter from Mr. Robinson, a former resident of the constituency, but now of Manitoba, in which the writer says: "I do wish that you will be the member in }West Huron. Stick to the Reform flag through thick and thin; be honest in the eamnaign, although it is hard to be such among thieves." Mr. Rob nson has a poor opinion of . Mr. Holmes' political associates. He speaks too strongly, butno doubt feels what he.says.—Toronto Mail and Empire. M*X: The grip which now prevails is not so dangerous or so general as the epi- demic of eight or nine years. At least this is the opinion of several of the doctors. At the time referred to there was a great deal of heart trouble associated with the malady, while this year it is fortunately not in evi- dence. The symptoms are more of the character of influenza. One of the peculiarities of the trouble this year is the partial inefficacy of that tired remedy quinine in .coping with it. Hitherto quinine seemed to have greater effect on grippe patients. The worst feature of the present epidemic is the number of cases of pneumonia which have been induced by it. It has been a characteristic of grippe that it frequently leaves the patients susceptible to a more serious malady and this year the tendency is towards pneumonia.

The reputation of Paine's Celery Compound extends from day• to day. Those who stand in need of the heal- ing and recuperativeowers of nature's health restorer are advised to use it by 'dose who have been Made well ana strong. In the house, on the street, and where people congregate, Paine's Celery Compound is ever recommend- ed and kindly words spoken in its favor. In this way the popularity of the great medicine is made enduring, audits immense sales stir the envy of the ordinary patent medicine proprie- tor and the jealous minded doctor, The wealthiest families of the laud, the best and most observant people in our cities and towns, and the common- sense people in our agricultural dis- tricts, place Paine's Celery Oompound far above all other known remedies, The past and present history of Paine's Celery Compound is one grand con - tinned story of sick people made well. —of fathers, mothers, sons and daugh- ters restored to perfect health. Competent medical authorities de- clare that Paige's Celery Compound is the one great mediebse for rundown and physienlly weak people. When the vital forces are low and the tier- vous organism shattered, thou it is that the marvellous medicine manifests its wondrous heeling•vii'tues. Weak- ness, depression, tired feelings, 1an- gu(n', digestive troubles, headache, rheumatism and neuralgia are quickly b:ulished owing to the noauisltnhent that Paine's Celery Compound. im- parts to brain, nerves and tissue. It is the great everyday home medicine for all classes of our population. R' port of Farmers Institute, The Ontario Government has never issued a more instructive and useful doctnnent titan the report of the Superintendent of Farmers' Institutes for the year 1897-8 just received. It is book of about 500 pages containing; numerous illustrations and celebrating the latest and most detailed informa- tion upon every subject connected with .the pursuit of farming. The Farmers' hist -Mutes are in a flourishing con- dition their total membership having increased from 15,707 in December 173- 97 to 10,3512nn July 31, 1898. During the year 05S Institute meetings were held attended by an aggregate of 126,- 091 persons and 3,270 addresses deliver- ed. Some 30,000 excursionists also visited the Guelph College Parra under the auspices of the Farmers' Institutes. A woman's Institute has been organiz- ed in Saltfleet Township, Wentworth County, with 80 members, which it is hoped may be the pioueer of a new movement for organizing women in the country districts as the men are now organized in the Institutes, for the discussion of a large class of do- mestic, social and economical prob- lems iu which farmers' wives are in- terested. The report comprises selected papers and addresses delivered before the Institutes, all of practical value in their bearing upon farm industry. The r, Institutes Lave secured ed the ser- vices of a large number of experts and leading men throughout the country who have freely placed their special knowledge at the disposal of the mem- bers The topics treated of cover an exceedingly wide Tango including every phase of farming industry and many scientific or economic questions which have an important bearing up- on the condition of the farmer. A very few of the papers which might be mentioned are " Cross Breeding and Hybridizing of Plants " by W. T. Macouu; " Making Plant Food Avail- able ", by G. a.. Day; "Utensils for Practical Use in a Farm. Dairy", T. C. Rogers; " Dairy Education", H. H. Dean; " What the Dairy Industry has done for Canada", A. F. McLaren; " Spraying and Apple Orchard ", J. E. Orr; " Relation of Agriculture to our School System ", C. 0. James; " Practical Poultry Keeping ", A. G. Gilbert; " Women's Institutes ", Miss Laura Rose; " Domestic Economy ", Mrs. J. L. Smith; " Swine breeding and Feeding ", John C. Nichol; and " Tuberculosis ", 'D• McCrae. A pa- per by Charles W. Nash, on the birds of Ontario in their relation to agri- culture, is a special feature of much sentation at the June session; that the interest as it comprises 52 fine illust- County Engineer put the fence around rations of Canadian birds with infer - the registry office in proper repair, and in ation concerning them, which shows that the County Clerk take the nec- the useful part they play in connec- essary ste s to have the Court House tion with farm economy. In another appendix to the voluine the results of recent scientific experi- ments in Europe and the United States in the leading branches of agriculture are given with much fullness of detail. This will be found particularly useful and instructive to the progressive far- mer who desires to keep in touch with the latest discoveries and avail him- self of the results of the researches of experts in a practical way by adopting new economicprocesses andinventions. Such investigations have in the past done much to improve the condition of the farmer. By bringing; the know- ledge thus acquired in distant coun- tries in an accessible form before the farmers of Ontario, the Farmers' In- stitutes are tieing a useful and much needed work and fully justifying the encouragement judiciously afforded them by Ontario administration. The volinete before us is an extremely ere- ditable and gratifying' evidence of the advanced condition of agriculture in this Province and the intelligence and enterprise of the farming ,community, no less dialed, the energy. and pro- gressiveness shown by the Depart- ment of Agriculture in . educational. work. TYPEWRITING BY WIRE. John S Thompson, of Chicago, is the inventor of what he calls an elect- rical selective ap-paratus, wnich, if it accomplishes all that he contends, will create a sensa-tion in the world of telegraphy and typewriting. Mr. Thompson says that by his in- vention'a typewriter at one point can be operated manually so as to print any matter, and a second typewriter at a different point will be operated so as to exactly reproduce this matter. So, in- stead of sending telegraphic messages spelled out by means of. the Morse al- phabet and then transcribed by the. receiving operator, either by hand or upon a, typewriter machine, such mes- sages are automatically printed by the typewriter itself. All that is .neces- sary is to place the paper for the mes- sage in the machine, operating the swich controlling the Cirenit so as to allow the machine to receive the mes- sage and then to remove the paper af- ter the message has been printed upon Moved by Messrs.
