A MONDAY CHRISTMAS.
Must we wait for the snow or the
goose bone to learn whether the winter
is to be hard? Not at all. Listen to an
ancient bard whose script is in the
the British Museum:
"If Christmas Day on Monday be,
A great winter that year you'll see,
And full of winds, both loud and
shrill,
But in summer, truth to tell,
Stern winds shall there be and strong,
Full of tempests lasting long;
While battles they shall multiply,
And great plenty of beasts shall die,"
Christmas this year falls on Mon-
day. -New York Sun.
Drastic Law Re H. C. of L.
Any combination or agreement to en-
hance the price of a necessity of life
will be classified as a criminal offense
punishable by a fine of $5,000 or im-
prisonment for two years, according to
order -in -council expected to pass the
Cabinet council immediately tinder
the Combines Act it is already criminal
to combine to unduly enhance price.
In the new order -in -council the word
"unduly" is left out as regards the
price of food and any agreement to ad-
vance prices to any extent is made an
offense. The department of labor as
well as the municipalities will be vested
with wide inquisitional powers to
ascertain conditions of food supply and
the reasons which underlie abnormal
prices,

Impressive services marked the un-
veiling of the honor roll of the Metho-
dist Church on Sunday afternoon. In
all nineteen members and adherents of
the church have joined Canada's ex-
peditionary forces. A majority are
with the Bruce battalion, the most
Canadian of the battalions. There are
two medical officers and two stretcher-
bearers among the number. Two
members have paid the supreme sacri-
fice, viz., Ralph Orr and Thornton Fear,
while another, Harold Skilling, lies in a
hospital as the result of honorable
wounds on the battlefield. A fine at-
tendance of members and friends was
present, and the service will not soon
be forgotten. At the close an appeal
was made for dainties and comforts to
be forwarded in the Christmas parcels
to the boys in England and at the front.

GREY
Thursday, Oct. 26th, Richard Mitchell,
llth Con., went to Fergus hospital to
have an operation for hernia. This
turned out successfully but pleurisy set
in and despite all that could be done he
passed away last Monday morning.
The remains were brought to the home
of his son, Wm., Lot 9, Con. 11, on
Tuesday and the funeral took place
from there Saturday afternoon at 2.30
o'clock, interment in Brussels cemetery.
Mr. Mitchell was in his 60th year and
was well known as he had lived for 50
years in the townships of Grey and
Morris before going West 7 years ago
to Kelfield, Sask. He retained his
farm in Grey and has been working
with his son on it during the past
summer. He was a member of the
Methodist Church for long years and
was an industrious, honorable man and
held in respect by a large circle of
friends who were surprised to learn
of his demise. Mrs. Mitchell was still
in the West and on being apprised of
the sad event left for the East to attend
the burial of her life partner. She is
a daughter of the late Jno. and Mrs.
Jones, formerly of this locality. 5
children were born to Mr. and Mrs.
Mitchell. They are: -Will, of Grey;
Percy, Mrs. Jno. Bielby and Mrs. Geo.
Givens, of Kelfield, Sask. John died in
the West and his body was brought to
Brussels for interment. Jno. Mitchell
and Mrs. Dilling, of Grey township, are
brother and sister of deceased. The
community tender sympathy to the
bereaved.

What might have been a fatal acci-
dent happened Monday, when Frank
Bainton started the engine in his
tannery, and began to oil the shafting.
In some way his coat caught in the re-
volving shaft. To avert the almost
certain death, he grabbed a projecting
timber, which kept him from being
carried around the shaft. The clothes
were all torn off him, and he received a
severe shock. He is somewhat bruised,
but he will soon be as well as ever.
A sudden death took place on the
streets of Blyth, Saturday night, Nov.
4th. John Tamblyn, a highly respected
citizen of Hullett, after doing some
shopping, fell on the street. He was
carried into a sales stable, and a doctor
sent for, but he expired when being
conveyed to his home in an auto. The
cause of death was heart failure. Mr.
Tamblyn was C9 years of age, and
had lived most of his life on the
farm in Elullett. He was an active
member of the 'Methodist Church and
always ready to assist the church in
any way in his power. IIe was well
known in the township, and for a
cumber of years sat at the council
board. Surviving are his widow and
two suns, one with the soldiers at the
front and the other at home. All have
the sympethy of a vast number
of friends in their sudden bereave-
ment.

A TALK ON RHEUMATISM
Telling How to Actually Cure
Common and Painful
Malady
This article is for the man or woman
who suffers from rheumatism who wants
to be cured, not merely relieved -but
actually cured. The most the rheu-
matic sufferer can hope for in rubbing
something on the tender. aching joint,
is a little relief. No lotion or liniment
ever did or can make a cure. The
rheumatic poison is rooted in the blood.
Therefore rheumatism can only be
cured when this poisonous acid is driven
out of the blood. Any doctor will tell
you this is true, If you want some-
thing that will go right to the root of
the trouble in the blood take Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills. They make new,
rich blood which drives out the poisonous
acid and cures rheumatism to stay
cured. The truth of these statements
has been cured in thousands of cases
throughout Canada, and the following
cure is a striking instance. Mr. Henry
Smith, St. Jerome, Que., says: "For
upwards of a year I was a victim of
rheumatism in a most painful form.
The trouble was located in my legs and
for a long time I was so bad that I
could not walk. The suffering I endured
can only be•imagined by those who have
been similarly afflicted. Doctors' treat-
ment did not help me and then I began
trying other remedies, but with no
better results. Finally I was advised
to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and al-
though I had begun to lose faith in
medicine, I finally decided to give the
pills a trial. I am very grateful now
that I did so, for after taking eight
boxes of the pills the trouble completely
disappeared. I vas free from pain and
could walk as well as ever I did in my
life. I have since taken the pills
as a precautionary measure, and I can-
not speak too highly in their favor."
Dr. William's Pink Pills cure all the
troubles due to weak, watery blood or
broken down nerves. You can get these
pills through any dealer in medicine, or
by mail postpaid, at 50 cents a box or
six boxes for :12.50 from The Dr.
Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville,
Ont.
