STAND I3Y W1NGHANL
One of the moat notable facts conneet-
ed with the country newspaper of to-
ts the large increase in the AMENIllt
Of advertising of local business places.
The change has taken place gradually,
and has been marked especially during
the last year or two. Local merchants
have found that without a doubt honest
advertisements pay, also that it is
necessary to call attention to their
goods because of the immense competi-
tion they face from the departmental
stores of the big cities. These great
establishments e.clvertiso their wares
most lavishly, and the metropolitan
newspapers which contain their adver-
tisements are distributed over the
country, some one paper of which enters
nearly every home. The result is that
these establishments have built up an
immense mail trade. In Wingham
there is no occasion for this out of town
trading; in nine cases out of ten just as
good bargains may be obtained here.
The duty of citizens is plain, and vi here
other things are equal preference should
be given the local dealer, who has in-
vested his capital, and helps every day
to make Wingham a better town. It
is only a fair return that they receive
your patronage. To turn trade other-
wise, even in the line of small purchas-
es, which are great in the aggregate, is
to invite the decline of property values
in Wingham.
EDITORIAL NOTES
If a candidate were restricted to mak-
ing his appeals to the voters through
the press and on the platform, his cam-
paign expenses would be cut down to
one-tenth of what they are now. , He
would not be under the necessity of
keeping a well-oiled party machine go-
ing, with corrupting and general self -
demoralizing influence. The verdict
which the electors would give under
these conditions would be improved to
sueh an extent as to create nothing
short of a revolution. That change may
be some distance away yet, but it is one
that all sincere electoral reformers
would advocate. -Edmonton Journal.
The political see -saw in East Lamb -
ton ha's-once more gone against Mr. R.
J. McCormick, the former M. P. P.
Chief Justice, Sir William Meredith at
Osgoode Hall Friday, sustained the
appeal of Dr. J. B. Martyn, the Con-
servative csndidate, against the decision
of the County Judge, who, in the re-
count, rejected ballots on the ground
that the counterfoils ought to have
been detached.
It is a coast to coast tour which Sir
Wilfrid Laurier, leader of the Opposi-
tion, has proposed for the coming autumn
months. It is generally conceded here
that the tours of the two leaders are
the commencement of a year's cam-
paign, which will culminate in an election
some time next year,
The potato bug came into Canada in
the 70's to add to the trade depression
which was a legacy the Mackenzie ad-
ministration had to contend with. Now
comes the army worm to worry the
Borden Government. Could not our
southern neighbors arrange to keep at
home these disturbers of our fields? --
Stratford Beacon.
Borden was substituted for Laurier
in 1911. And hard times were substitut-
ed for prosperity.
Twenty-five workmen were deported
from Ottawa last week by the Borden
Government because there was no work
in Canada by which they could earn a
living. Does anyone remember deporta-
tion for such a reason in the days of
Laurier?
There have been two noteworthy ad-
vances in Canada under the Borden
Government. The tariff has been
greatly increased and so has the cost of
living.
The development and prosperity of
Western Canada was brought about
'under the administration of Sir Wilfrid
Laurier. Its development and pros-
perity has been checked under Sir Rob-
ert Dord -rt.
According to a Harvard scientist, it
would be better for the health if per-
sons sat on floors instead a chairs,
some of which are so designed as to
be more iajurioue than helpful.

Need ail the Strength Th Good
Het Blood Can Give.
Youth is the time to lay the foutda- I,
tion for health. Every boy and girl
should have plenty of pure, red blood
and strong nerves. With thin, impure I
blood they start life with 4 handicap '
too great to win success and happiness. I
Pure, red blood means healthful growth,
strong nerves, a clear brain and a good
digestion. In a word, pure blood is the
foundation of health.
The signs of thin, impure blood are
many and enmistakable. The pale, ir-
ritable boy or girl, who has no appetite
or ambition, is always tired out, mel-
ancholy, short of breath, and who does
not grow strong, is the victim of
anaemia, or bloodlessness -the greatest
enemy of youth.
There is just one thing to do for
these boys and girls -build up the blood
with Dr. Williams' PinkTills for Pale
People. You can't affol to experiment
with other reme ies f there must be
il
no guesswork , n eeteretor
wrong treatmentof
anaemia, Thro, gh gie
treatment anaern gradually develops
into the pernicioa form which is prac-
tically incurable. Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills work directly on the blood, giving
it just the elements which it lacks. In
this way these Pills build up every
organ and nerve in the body, thus de-
veloping strong, rugged boys and girls.
Miss Anna Loseke, Grand Forks, B.C.,
says: "I think that before taking Dr.
,Williams' Pink Pills I was one of the
most miserable girls alive. I was hardly
ever free from awful headaches, was as
pale as a ghost, and could not go up-
stairs without stopping to rest. Now
since taking the Pills the head-
aches have gone, my appetite is
good and I am equal to almost any ex-
ertion, and you may be sure I will
always recommend Dr. Williams Pink
Pills."

Mr Leo Wadel left on Saturday last
for a trip to Guelph and Peterborough,

The outlook for honey this year, es-
pecially in this neighborhood is indeed
very poor. Owing to the scarcity of
clover in the early season the bees have
made no honey and at this advanced
stage when there should be buckwheat
and clover hovering in sight there is
very little of the honey making product
so far in eight. Mr. George Cottle, the
big bee man here, who has abut 200
hives of bees, says there has been
scarcely any scvarming to what there
should have been and MO honey what-
ever. It is just a case of living from
day to day. and if a change dont take
place very soon it will be necessary to
feed the bees to give them a winter
supply and that means considerable cost
and trouble.
