Housekeeping naturally suggests the kitchen first—its equipment and management, or in other words, THE RANGE My range, as you know, is a Gurney -Oxford. I never enjoyed much of a reputation as a cook in my younger days, so when I thought of being responsible for three meals a day my heart sank. I imagined myself battling all day with a sulky range, trying to coax it into a good humour, and covered with mortification because of late or spoiled meals. But my dear, my Gurney -Oxford seemed to sympathize with my inexperience. From the day it came it 1173 h • ' RNEYOXFU • jumped right in and helped. It has become my good right hand, and I go my way confident that my Gurney -Oxford will not disappoint me. It has the cleverest arrangement for regulating the drafts, well named the Gurney Economizer. One small lever put up or down does everything. The fire will stay in all day, hardly burning any coal at all—then, presto ! It is burning brightly, ready to bake or roast. An arrangement of flues keeps the oven always properly heated, so that the biscuits or bread come out light and crisp and brown. Yes, Edith, as Bob says, I have developed into "some cook," and I often tell Dina he must give at least half the credit to our Gurney -Oxford. You will understand my enthusiasm better after you have had your Gurney -Oxford a month or so. Sincerely Yours, MARY HOUSEWIFE. W. J.

' The statutes of Ontario provide that when meeting on the public highways drivers of rigs must turn out to the right. If overtaking another, the driv- er wishing to pass must turn out to the ! left, and the driver of the slower ve- 1 hiele•must turn to the right, thus allow- ing room for the faster vehicle to pass. The same rule applies to motor vehicles as well as others. The driver of any vehicle who does not comply with these rules is liable for any damage that may occur from such non -observance. Few, if any, medicines, have met with the uniform success that has attended the use of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. The remark- able cures of colic and diarrhoea which it has effected in almosteveryneighbor- hood have given it a wide reputation. For sale by all dealers.

E. Herr, 111 Grange St., Stratford, Ont., writes:—"Ten years ago I suffered with a very peculiar disease. I would go to bed feeling as well as could be, and after sleeping for five hcurs I would wake with a severe pain in my back, then moving into my side and breast. The pain was so terrible I could not lie in my bed, and usually had to sit until morning with a pillow propped up behind my back. With all my pain I would go to work, and after working up to about 10 o'clock the pain would leave me entirely. The same thing would hap- pen the next night, and every night for two years. I tried four different doctors, but none of them did me any good. I tried a great many patent medicines, but all of no avail. I gave up all hopes of .ever getting well. A friend persuaded me to try Milburn's Heart and Nerve Pills. I bought four boxes, and after using the first one I felt a change for the better, and after using three boxes I could sleep all night. The pains were gone, and Is TAKEN tivascburn'seH cured. blilburn's Heart and Nerve Pills are 60 cents per box, or 3 boxes for $1.25, at all dealers, or mailed direct on receipt of price by The T.

Mrs. H. I. SteMinan, Pleasant River, N.S., writes: "A year ago this fall, my little boy was suddenly taken ill with diarrhoea and vomiting, and as our doctor is ten milts distant, it seemed as if I could not get help soon enough, but on going to the country stere I purchased a bottle of Dr. Fowler's Extract of Wild Strawberry, and after the first dose could notice an improvement, and the next day the child was better and regained health. Since that time I always keep it on hand." Insist on being given "Dr. Fowler's" when you ask for it. Price 35 cents. Manufactured duly by The T. Milbui* Co., Limited, Toronto, Ont. BRAN FOR HEALTH.

They are the poor man's comfort and the rich man's delight. They grow in any kind of soil, almost without care or at- tention except to pick the profusion of beautiful blossoms that glorify the vines from July till the frost comes. The wonder of sweet peas is their beauty and generosity. No other flow- er is so democratic as this. No cottage too humble to be ignored by its opening buds and no home so splendid but that i t gains added beauty from yines or vases filled with these dainty flowers. They are a delight to every eye and their fragrance is of such subtle sweet- ness that it is unmatched anywhere. So next year dig a trench along the fence or against a screen or where the vines can ramble over brush heaps, scatter a packet of seeds and possess for yourself the delights that sweet peas can bring to the house and the heart.

Subscribe For The Times $1.00 a Year A Municipal Mystery, From Canadian Collier's. In the city of Toronto lives a man— and there is his like in almost every Canadian city—who for many years has held office as a city controller, be- ing elected regularly each New Year's Day. Other men, sitting on the same board, have advanced ambitious plat- forms for municipal reform or for im- proving the city in some way or an- other, and have been for the time de- feated by the people, probably because the things they advocated were ahead of the times. Other men have been alternately elected and defeated, ac- cording to the whim of the electorate, who have always been acknowledged able and honest. But this other man, saying nothing, proposing nothing, do- ing nothing, is as sure of his seat as thougis it had been sold to him and he held a ticket. He is not a grafter. He holds no pernicious doctrines. He represents no predatory corporation. He has not a pleasing personality and cannot make a coherent speech, He was never known to pursue a consist- ent line of conduct, and when he makes a speech the reporters work quickly lest they lose a chance for what they call "a fool story," Yet this man csln- not be defeated. There is his like in almost every municipal government. They are not actively bad, tnerely'fool- ish, 'How they get into office, is a mystery that might be worth investi- gation by a student of the psychology of elections, PRINTING 'AND STATIONERY We have put in our office a complete stock of Staple Stationery and can supply your wants in WRITING PADS ENVELOPES LEAD PENCILS BUTTER PAPER PAPETERIES, WRITING PAPER BLANK BOOKS PENS AND INK 'TOILET PAPER PLAYING CARDS, etc We will keep the best stock in the respective lines and sell at reasonable prices.
