It contains 16 pages of well written and interesting reading mat- ter. A new weekly paper has been estab- lished in London entittled The Prtrio- tic Canadian the editor of which will be Mr. Thos. Passmore, formerly of Exeter, and proprietor of the Anvo- CATE.' A fox was seen bask of Mr. Rd Pick- ard's residence recently and the news was at once commuuicated to Mr. Ed.

The county council passed a resolu- tion last ,lune asking each municipal ity to take a vote of the electors at the municipal election on the question of erecting a Home of Refuge in Huron County, ,rot~ many years past this matter has came up before the county board in various forma, and as the opinion of the ratepayers is now asked we hope no municipality will refuse to grant the plebiscite. So far the Exeter council have taken no action in the• Matter. It would be only fair to the, rate payers to make the announcement at once if a vote is to be taken so that the electors will have an opportunity to post themselves on this important question. 100 pars for The Anvo BdnaielFe1141;tltters. • CA' •l5 from now to I The time is fast approaching whoa Jan, 1st, 1894,to near subseribors.

There is no secretor patent in the production of "Myrtle Navy" tobacco. It could be produced by any manu- facturer, but no manufacturer could make it pay at that price, unless he could purchase on a large scale and sell on a large scale. He could not sell below the present price without - a. loss even if he could purchase on the lowest advantageous terms. To get a large market therefore, without which he would` have no inducement to go on, would be the work of many years.

I, Hood. & Co., Lowell, Mass.: "Dear Sirs : If Hood's Sarsaparilla cost S110.00a Bottie I should still keep using it, as I have for the past ten years. With me the question as to whether life is worth living depends 'upon whether I can get Hood's Sarsaparilla. I don't think I could live without it 'now, certainly I, should not wish to, and suffer as I used to. For over ten years I suffered .the horrors of the damned with Sciatic - Rheumatism for if ever a man suffers with anything in this world it is with that awful dis- ease. It seems to me as if all other physical suffering• were compressed into that one. I took about everything man ever tried for it but never got a dollar's worth of help until I began taking Hood's Sar;nsaparral9a I have taken it now pretty regularly for ten years and have no more pain and can get around all right.
