The Mitchell Advocate of last week
says: "Two women were in town Wed-
nesday forenoon collecting money for
the Siek Children's Hospital, Toronto.
They had a horse and buggy and put
ut at the Royal Hotel. People were
suspicious of them and when the fol-
lowing message came from the Mayor
of Seaforth it caused little surprise:
'Two ladies were here the last two days
collecting money for the Sick Child-
ren's Hospital, Toronto. I wired J.
Ross Robertson to find out if they had
any authority to solicit subscriptions
or collect money for the Hospital? He
answered that no person had authori-
ty to solicit subscriptions or collect
money for the hospital. After I got
that answer we tried to get them but.
they had gone and no body could tell
which way they went,so if they should
turn up in your town you will know
that they are getting money under
false pretences and deal wieh them ac-
cordingly' They secured about $100
in Seaforth. Later: -The women were
on Friday arrested in Wingham after
having secured $20 from citizens. The
money was taken front them and they
were allowed to go.

Owing to the fact that Christmas was

opportune tune to take tip the work of
"Christmas presents and cooking suit-
able for the holiday season." there
was, however, it large attendance
and many of the members canoe pre-
pared to make this meeting interest-
ing along the line indicated, but a still
greater effort is expected at the next
meeting.

"Rant Lyase."
"East Lynne" which comes to the
Opera House, Exeter, Wednesday' ev-
ening, is one of the strongest emotion-
al dramas ever written. It is estimat-
ed that it has been seen by more than
20,000,000 people and its gross takings
have been in the neighborhood of $10,-
000,000. It has more metropolitan runs
to its credit than any other play of re-
cent times. The natural deduction is
that it is it play that appeals to all
classes. Lady isabella's simple story,
her grief and anguish and her spirited
denunciation of the man, who took ad-
vantage of her innocence, go to stake
n a pretty, unaffected and direct play.
This company recently appeared in
Port Huron, Mich., and the Daily
Times of Oct. 2, 1903, speaking of the
performance, says: "The Raymond
and Poore "East Lynne" Company
drew capacity audiences to the City
Opera Douse Saturday afternoon and
evening. The company was a good
ono and gave the best production of
this well known drama ever seen in
the city." The price of admission have
been placed at 25 and 35 cents.
