TRY THIS FOR YOUR COUGH
To relieve a cough or break up acold
in twenty-four hours, the following
simple formula., the ingredients of
which can be obtained of any good pre-
scription druggist at small cost, is all
that will be required: Virgin Oil of
Pine (Pure), one-half ounce; Glycer-
ine, two ounces; good Whiskey, a half
pint. Shake well and take in teaspoon-
ful doses every four hours. The de-
sired results can not -he obtained un-
less the ingredients are pure. It is
therefore better to purchase the in-
gredients separately and prepare the
mixture yourself. Virgin Oil of Pine
(Pure) shonld be purchased in the
original half -ounce vials, which drug-
gists hay for dispensing. Each vial is
securely sealed in a round wooden case
which protects the Oil from exposure
to light. Around the wooden case is
an engraved wrapper with the name—
"Virgin Oil of Pine (Pure)"—plainly
printed thereon. There are many imi-
tations and cheap productions of Pine,
but these only create nausea. and nev-
er effect the desired results.

The auction sale of dairy cattle own-
ed by Mr. W. J. Williams of Ingersoll,
at the Metropolitan Hotel on Thurs.
last was well attended. Some thirty
cows and heifers were sold and the
prices realized were good, some bring-
ing over $40. Mr. Thos, Cameron
wielded the hammer.
Mr. Wm. Russell of Hay township
has purchased Mr. Geo. E. Case's hun-
dred acre farm situated on the London
Road in the same township. ' The
price paid was $5700; this is considered
oue of the best farms in township and
Mr. Russell has secured a bargain.
We understand Mr. Case will continue
to reside in Toronto.
The other day in London two boys,
charged with -breaking electric light
globes, appeared before the magistrate
and were made to pay for the globes
and warned that in future they .shonld
be given a heavy fine, the penalty be-
ing $50. Mr. C. B. Snell says that
certain boys in Exeter would do. well
-to take this warning to themselves. .
The Wardens of the Trivitt Memor-
ial church last week purchased the two
vacant lots situated on the south east
corner opposite the • church property
and owned by Mrs. Thos. Sweet. of
Stephen tp. The property was purch-
ased for the purpose of moving the
church sheds thereon, thus enlarging
the rectory grounds, affording better
accommodation and beautifying the
property.
The question is often asked "Does
poultry raising pay?" Judging from
the batch of this year's chicks brought
into Messrs. Jones & Clark's store on
Saturday last by Mr. Thos. Morley of
Usborne, they are the. next thing on
the calendar to gold nuggets. Two
of the number were weighed separate-
ly and tipped the scales at 14 founds,
realizing the seller $1.281. .That it
pays to raise poultry and that Mr.
Morley is a good feeder go without
saying.
We are in receipt of an unsigned
letter which states: A lady from Chic-
ago got off at Exeter Depot recently
and fell. She thought it was the dark-
est station she ever got off at. Get-
ting out you are confronted by an old
box car. It is more like a freight sta-
tion than a passenger station. Some
one will break a limb there and it will
cost the company more than a half-
dozen of lights." Such is the opinion
of our unknown correspondent.

Jubilee Singers. .
The American Jubilee Singers gave
the third of the series of concerts in
the Opera House on Monday evening.
The attendance was much larger then
that at either of the other concerts
and all seemed to be well satisfied with
the music rendered. The company
consisted of eight persons, all negroes,
four men and four women, under the
leadership of Daniel W. Brown. The
singing consisted of solos, quartettes,
and choruses. Among the selections
were a number of plantation' melod-
ies,which were well rendered and en-
thusiastically applauded. "My Old
Kentucky home,” "Jingle Bells," and
"A Chinese Quartette" were among
the favorites, a hile the ,opening and
closing pieces were very choice. The
readings by. Miss Clay, 'particularly
"Seeing Thinks at Night," were well
received. The choruses were the
strong features, however, the different
parts being heard clear and full. On
the whole the jubilee singers pleased
the people.
Hicks' Forecasts for November.
A reactionary storm period is central
on the 25th, 26th and 27th. 'The Moon
is on the celestial equator on the 26th,
and this fact will insure more or less
rise in temperature, with decided fall
of barometer, cloudiness and return of
rain and snow. The disturbance, of
this period will culminate on the 26th
and 27th, •by which dates storms will
have passed well to the east, with high
barometer and colder, clearing weath-
er following in the iminediate rear of
storm areas. If you areplanningto
escape blizzards on the land or storms.
on the lakes, don't start on.your jour-
ney or your voyage, unless your trip
is a short one, at the on-comingof a
storm period, when the winds: are
shifting to east and south, the temper-
ature rising, and barometer falling.
Catch the northwest tangent of storm
areas, when' the barometer is rising
and the skies clearing.
Presbytery of Huron.
The Presbytery met in Brucefeld on
the 13th of November. Sessions were
requested to hold missionary meetings,
or have missionary sermons preached,
and report at the March meeting of
Presbytery. The rnattersto which the
attention of• Presbyteries is called in
Assembly minutes, were taken lip and
disposed of. The annual meeting' 'of
Mrs, W. J. McNevin, formerly of Ex-' the Presbyterial W. F. M. S. was;held.
eter, who has held a responsible posi- 1 which was numerously attended and
enthusiastic and the-report•was dis-
posed of by the Presbytery in enlogis-
tic terms. Mr. Martin reported that
he declared the charge of St. Andrew's
church, Blytb, vacant, and Mr. Small,
of Auburn, was appointed Moderator
of Session, during the vacancy. Dr.
Stewart and Mr. Fletcher were appoin-
ted to draft a minute respecting br.
McLean's retirement from the active

Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Carling return-
ed Saturday morning from their trip
to New Orleans on the -Ticket Agents'
Excursion. They were delighted with
the trip and the courtesies extended
them by the railway officials. Two
things that struck Mr Carling a's be-
ing worthy of mention were the great
beauty of the City of New. Orleans: and
the utter disregard that the southern
white man has for the negro. The
negro is thought to be just a little less
worthy of notice than a dog. Mr.
Carling thinks it is not altogether the
white man's fault either.
