Last week's thaw had considerable
effect upon the Aux Sauble river. The
stream became very large, and the ice
broke up and became piled in great
masses at different points along the -
course. A few bridges were moved
from their proper places, one, that on
the 2nd concession of Usborne, being
carried over 100 yards away from the
road, while its floor was carried about
half a mile. Reports from different
parts of the surrounding country state
that the roads were in many places
flooded, making travelling very diffi-
cult. . The frost of Friday came dust in
time to stay the thaw and give the
water a chance to get away without
doing much damage.

tended. Arthur H. Bewell, who is or-
ganist and choir leader of Wellington
St. Methodist church, Brantford, has
a magnificent bass voice, and those
who heard him were delighted with
his selections, and as a musician he is
one of the best that ever played before
a Port Colborne audience -he made
the organ sound like a large pipe-
orgau. Anna Watson-Bewell has a
well trained soprano voice, over which
she has full control, and can easily be
placed among the foremost singers of
Ontario. The elocutionist, Wallace
Graham, is certainly an entertainer
and is perfect in the class of readings
he rendered. He elicited hearty ap-
plause from the audience after every
number."

"The storm period which was cen-

of March will extend 'into the lst and,

low batirometer and high temperature,

freezing northward, will follow ,,but

A prominent Southern Lady,
Airs. Blanchard, of Nashville,

of backache,dizziness, painful
and irregular periods by the use
of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound. -
" Dean M. Premium : - Gratitude
compels meto acknowledge the great
meat of your Vegetable Compound. I
have suffered for four years with ir-
regular and painful menstruation, also
dizziness, pains in the back and lower
limbs, and fitful sleep. I dreaded the
time to come which would only mean
suffering to me.
" Better health is all I wanted, and
cure if possible. Lydia E. Pink -
ham's Vegetable Compound
brought me health .and happiness in
a few short months. I feel like another
person now. My aches and pains have
left me. Life seems new and sweet to
me,and everything seems pleasant
and easy.
"Six bottles brought me health, and
was worth more than months under
the doctor's care, which really did not
benefit me at all. I am satisfied there
is no medicine so good for sick women
as your Vegetable Compound, and I
advocate it to my lady friends in need
of medical help." - Mils. B. A. Max-
