Biding To Save L Life.
A'Georgian newspaper gave an ac-
eount of the heroism of John Potter, a
ten year old bogy who rode a horse
twelve miles to Macon for the purpose
of calling a physician to attend his
mother,' who was believed to be dying
with colic. The doctor could not be
found, but a kind druggist gave tate
lad a bottle of medicine and ordered
him to hurry home. The brave lad
rode home, delivered the medicine, and
then fainted from nervous exhaustion
The medicine c nred the sick woman,
and the toy is well. It is only necess-
ary to say that the precious medicine
was Perry Davis' Pain Killer, which
never fails to cure disorders of the
stomach. ,25c. old popular price, for

Left Owen Sound Saturday morning.
Mr. Geary has ridden over four hun-

touched the Exeter C. C's hearts as he
was one of the Sarnia Eleven that so
disastrously defeated our excellent

Rather an amusing incident occurr
ed in a southwestern portion of the vil-
lage a few days ago. One of our
sportsmen, ail old veteran, was just
taking aim at a black squirrel with his
old musket when a person passing by

out of season." He immediately low-
ered the gun and without uttering a

An accident was prevented in time
on Satarday which saved a boy's life.
The son of Mr. Sltettler, of Dashwood,
was driving down Main street on a
large load oef goods when a portion of
it slid upon the heels of the horses,
throwing the boy in close proximity to
the feet of the animals, when they be
gap kicking, but the young man was
too close to receive any injury in this
manner. The animals took fright and
began running away and just as one
of the ,vheels of the heavily loaded
wagon was about to pass over the
'young man's head his father pulled
hem out, and no doubt saved his 'life.
His injuries are only slight and not of
a serious nature.

cessary to import from nineteen to
nineteen and one quarter millions from,

barley is up to the average, but it is
feared the quality is below the aver-
age. New English wheat is selling
very low, although slightly improved,
