That has ever visited this vicinity,
about a foot Of water fell on the level.
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. When he landed in
the cellar he found himself standing
firi several feet of water, with preserve
tars, etc., floating all around bins.

able loss by the flooding of their cel-
"hrs. Ho! for Xanitoba.

A Letter from the West,
Mr. S. 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."

MED.—Another little gleam of time
between two eternities in the life of
one of our townsmen—Peter Straith.
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.

aggregating in value $200,000, will be

A. Drummond, these paintings have
been loaned to the ina.nageinent, who
have reserved it separate room for
their proper banging.
Another extremely interesting ex-
hibit is a picture by Bertram Hynes,
the celebrated armless painter, whose,
work has created such it sensation in
the English Academy this yetia The
nuinber of specimens of Caned
paintings in oil and water, of statuary,
china painting, drawing and photo-
graphy, Will far exceed that of any
previous art di4tilly in Canada."
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-. Inn now it ti a nice
