Saturday morning every person was ctross but the small boys who were laaving a high time in their bathing 'snits. It was not necessary to ask any questions why our peaceful citizens were so irritable, as you could tell by their appearance that it was not water on the brain but water in the cellar. A Arrge number had to go to the bakers :gar bread and butter, being unable to get into the cellars. Some very amus- ing stories are related. One hnsband criso was anxious to save the contents af the cellar stood at the end of the alrain and fished up the pickles as they were making for the river. Another, R-aring the night, heard a racket in his crams and quietly getting a club took after the supposed thief, which he thought was about to leave with all the good things.

N., Sanders, who left here a few weeks ago to take eharge of the interests of the Far :nets' 0o.=Operati v e Harvesting Co., at the Winnipeg Ex- hibition, writing to C. II. Sanders y "The trip up the lake was beautiful, with bean tiful , scenery all along the trip except for it time on Lake Super- ior. Our boat called at Port Arthur a thriving and busy 'town. /hour the boat we coold see a large area of the lake covered sv,ith sawlogs which woald estimate at nearly' forty acres. At this point elevators begin to stand out, very prominently, showing the treinendious traffic carried on in this line. Next we called and terminated the boat trip at Fort Wanton; et this point wheat and coal are king. There are numerous elevators and another very large one in course Of construc- tion for the C.P. R. From Fort Wil- liam to Winnipeg the land changes very rduch, some times for miles noth- ing but swamp, then miles of solid rock and interspersed with some good farm- ing land and some landavell wooded with spruce and other timber.Win- nipeg reached finds everythingin a mad rush for business, the whole city is in a state of "pullingdown and i building greater." There s a subway being bailt under the C. P. R. tracks which presents a very busy aspect. Men and teams excavating, working as thick as they can stand. Another busy scene presented upon reaching Winnipeg is the new C. P. R. Station and Hotel ,comhined, which covers a whole block, The Doininion Exhibi- tion was a very interesting event, ex- hibitors coming from all parts of Can- ada and the United States, which show that they appreciate the import- ance of reaching for a share of the business of this great country. We met with remarkable success with our exhibit of Clokey Binders, Mowers, etc., manufactured by the Farmer's Co-operative Harvesting Machine Co. booking a little over seventeen times the amount of business we did at the London Fair last fall. We then exhib- ited at Brandon, with the same re- sults and now we are at Regina ex- hibiting our line of machinery here, which has been the centre of attrac- tions at each fair. On our way to Re- gina we saw wheat cutting in full swing in the vicinity of Oak Lake, but here at Regina it will be about two weeks later. The crop looks splendid and if froet does not overtake it it proinises to be a good crop. An- other noticable feature along the rail- way is the multiplicity of game, ducks and prairie chicken in abundance. This will be truly thelaunter's paradise this fall."

True he had lived to a good old age, being over eighty, but a life well lived is too short at its longest, which was the case with him, who passed away on Friday. He was a thorough Scotch - man, born in the old sod, and with his wife, moved to this country nearly fifty years ago. For 46 years he has been a resident of our town, respected beyond measure, and was one of our earliest manufacturers. He was twice married.. His first wife Rredeceased him 9 years, being interred at Clinton cemetery, and beside whose remains he now lies. Frona this marriage seven children were horn to them. His pres- ent wife, who has been most devoted, kind and true, ever since he claimed her five years ago, is deserving of great sympathy in her bereavement. The remains Were brought up from Lon- don Friday, the funeral taking place Saturday. Most Valuable Paintings.

Why Is it that Ayers Hair Vigor does so many remark- able things? Because it is a hair food. It feeds the hair, puts new life into It. The hair flair Vigor cannot keep from growing. And gradually all the dark, rich color of early life comes back to gray hair. "When I but need Ayer's Bair Vigor my hair was about all gray-.
