HO WICK.
One of the most devoted and beloved
members of the Methodist Church in
the Fordwich circuit, Edward Cooper,
in his 78th year, was called on June 4
from his earthly home to be forever
with the Lord. For years he had suf-
fered with a weak heart. Mr. Cooper
was born in Toronto Township in 1834
and spent his boyhood days with an
uncle at Oshawa, as his father died be-
fore he was born. In 1863 he was mar-
ried to Miss Sarah Wellwood, of Osha-
wa, and the young couple came to
Howick and settled on the farm on the
3rd con., now occupied by Mr. Ford.
Cooper, where they spent their remain-
ing days. His wife predeceased him
five years ago, Mr. Cooper passing
away on the date his partner was
laid to rest. Of a large family only
two daughters, Mrs. C. E, Leppard of
Walkerton and Mrs. (Dr.) Armstrong,
of Calgary, Alta., and two sons, Albert
E. and Ford, survive. Mr. Cooper
was a man of excellent habits, fine
christian character and took an active
interest in everything which he believ-
ed was for the public good. How much
this community owes the deceased and
such as he, it is impossible to estimate.
He had filled the various relations of
life, as husband, father, brother, rriend,
and filled them well.

age. The surviving children are Eli,

of Atwood. Rev. A. C. Wishart per-
formed the ceremony in the presence
of 45 guests. The bride, who was
given away by her father, wore a beau-
tiful costume of oriental lace over
cream Duchess satin. Her veil was
prettily arranged in cap effect with lily
of the valley. She carried a bride's
book. James D. Duncan, nephew of
the bride, acting as page, carried cream
roses. The bride, who is a very popu-
lar young lady, received many beautiful
and useful presents from relatives and
friends, including a well filled purse
from her father. After dinner the
young couple left, amid showers of
confetti, touring to Listowel by auto-
mobile. en route for Toronto, the bride
wearing a navy blue tailored suit with
hat to match. Guests were present

Children Cry
FOR FLETCHER'S
CASTOR IA
During four nights 10,0110 birds, in-
cluding 1,800 woodcocks, are said to
have been destroyed about the light-
house at Barfleur, on the French coast.
This is a revolving light of 30,000,000
candle power. A visitor who was at
the lighthouse on November 10th of
Last year saw tons of thousands of birds
whirling around it, and it seemed that
the light shot out a perfect hail of el-
ectric sparks amongst the migrants.
The birds that are killed are gathered
up every morning and shipped by train
to Paris for food.
On the lawn of Middleton Place there
stands the sovereign of South Carolina
live oaks. The age of this tree, as of
many others near it, is beyond the
knowledge of man. The waist of the
trunk measures 36 feet 6 inches. Its
spread from tip to tip is 126 feet. This
is believed to be the largest oak tree in
the world. Another Middleton Place
specimen is probably the most beauti-
ful in existence and second in point of
size, having a trunk 27 feet in circum-
ference. Another notable live oak is
to be found on one of the terraces, near
the parterre. Its waist measurement
is only 23 feet 4 inches, but it has a
spread from tip to tip of 170 feet.
