APRIL 25, 1907 WHAT WOMEN WANT IN MEN. It is so recently that women have been Allowed to think. or expect to think, that it is not strange that they have not expressed themselves upon the philosophy, "Be good and you'll be married," and it has not been a ques- tion of what they like in then, but what Wren like in them that counted or was important. What do women want in men? There are worsen who prefer a man with the ability to earn a fortune rather than one who has inherited it. Being a good provider will sometimes cover a multitude of petty faults in the eyes of women obliged to account for every penny spent. Nor is gener- osity with money the only generosity. Women want from wen what every normal human being crsves-cor- tuendlation and appt oval. Wonsan. normal and healthy. clues not want or need a toaster. Outside of truthfulness, honor and courage in him. what she prizes above all things from hitu are kindness, generosity and sympathy. --Rene Squire in the May Delineator. House Cleaning Time The chairs are on the table, The beds are on the floor, There ain't a blessed curtain On a window Or a door; The range is in the parlor, The piano's in the shed. We've got to seek a restaurant in order to get fed. The library's an awful sight, Books all over the floor, The heelI's;jam full of furniture, One ran t get neat the door; The billiard table's in the barn, The buggy's on the sloop, My opera hat and evening clothes Hang in the chicken coop. The sideboard's in the drawing room, The hat rack's in the yard. My brush and comb are on a barrel Beside a crock of lard; The butter's in the coal bin, The bread is in the bath, Now is'nt it enough to 'nate A man rise up in wrath? The colonial conference, meeting in London, Eng., has decided to change the name to 'Imperial conference." It has Also been decided to meet every four years to discuss the common in• teresta of the empire. Pale, Thin, Nervous? Then your blood must be in a very had condition.

The persons afflicted throughout the township have all been quarantined and strict measures are being adopted to stop the spread of the disease. For some time the dis- ease was called chicken pox but as soon as it was properly diagnosed, ac- tive measures were taken to stamp it out. Vaccination appears to be the best means as a prevention and all are earnestly requested to have it done. It is fully expected of the public that they will do their part and assist the health officers in ridding the township of this unpleasant state of affairs. I is the duty according to law of every householder who has suspicion of hav- ing an infective and contagious disease in his home to at once notify the Med- ical Health Officer inside of twenty- four hours. If this is not done they are subject to a fine and this will be done by the authorities if there is any negligence shown. Moray Miss Elizabeth Ellwood of London is visiting her sister Mrs. J. W.

Eidt is held in the very highest esteem by his congrega- tion. He returned from the confer- ence session Monday. -Every person here seems to be in full swing at their gardens. -The great smallpox scare is now almost past in so far as we are concerned. True we have some mild cases yet, but they are very few in number and of a very mild type. All precaution has been taken to prevent further spread of the disease and in a short time it will be a thing of the past. According to rumors which come to us frow outside points people living at a distance have a very exag- gerated idea of the facts as they really are, and we can account for it in no other way than this. When ever we heard of a case we made full inquiry from medical authority and if the re- port was verified we immediately placed that person or house in quar- antine till infection was no longer there according to medical testimony. But we were often met with a storm of abuse and very rigid opposition. And more than that many of the in- habitants would challenge our acts and tell us and others we had no au- thority to do this or that, and hence the controversy which no doubt gives to outsiders the idea that the whole place is infected and unfit to enter. But we are glad to be able to say very truthfully that such is not the case; that the disease exists in only a few houses in the village -six -and that roost of these are now almost able to be out, having bad their premiaes,per- sons and clothing disinfected. If any one thinks we did anything we ought not to have done, or left anything un- done we should have done, let them bring us before a magistrate and then we will find out if our actions do not comply with the requirements of the provisions of the Public Health Act.

ALMOST ASPItsrxia I),--EzraOtter- bine, fireman at the Dashwood planing mills, not appearing at his post as usual on Tuesday morning and on investiga- tion it was found that he, his wife and family of several children, wereuncnn- scious as the result of n leak of gas from their coat stove, and had their rescuers been a few moments longer, the delay knight have been fraught with most serious consequences. At last reports the family were doing as well as could be expected in the way of recovery. Smallpox at Dashwood, TO THE ADVOCATE. Many and amusing are the reports at present crrculxtingin our surround. ing towns. We alight judge from the purport of these reports that they might be entitled "Smallpox in Dash- wood." As a matter of fact instead of fifty or sixty cases as reported, by the time of the publishing of this paper, there will be in Dashwood three placards enclosing five cases. We are very much surprised at in- fluential and business men. circulating and helping circulate such outrageous misdemeanors, on a sister town. Their methods of prevention namely, re- questing Dashwood inhabitants to re- train in the vicinity, by trying to stop the trails, etc. etc., are very good hut quite unnecessary. No doubt if Parkhill, Exeter, Credi• ton and Zurich always take such pre- cautions nothing but sheer old age or calamities will bring death, the inevit- able, to their inhabitants. As an item of interest it may be well to state, that those who are unfortun• ate enough to have contracted the de- sease ate quite well physically and if it were not for the law, would be quite capable of managing their daily occur. tions. CITI7.8N Nothing new has developed in the smallpox line, except that one home in Crediton has two eases. Every care is being taken to prevent the further spread of the trouble and it is confi- dently felt that the disease is well in hand. That it is of a mil(I form is ev- ident from the fact that none of the patients in Stephen are at all sick. They are simply confined to the house because the law says so, not because they are unable to work. The reports in the different daily papers are very much exaggerated and would lead one to believe that the whole country side is infectedwith the disease and spread- ing to an alarming extent. This is not the case and with the care and pre- caution being exercised by the officials there is no rause for alarm. The spread of the disease was eine to it be- ing of such a mild type that little or no attention Was given to those afflict- ed in the beginning. CLINTON LADY DROPS DEAD Clinton. April 21t. MN.
