Miss Wellwood is home on furlough having spent a number of years in China. Mrs. W. Connell received word that her brother, Robert Somerville, passed away at his residence in Saulte Ste. Marie, on Tuesday of last week. De- ceased had been paralyzed for some time, so his death was not unexpected. Robt. Thompson, of Holyrood, who was kicked in the abdomen by one of his horses, died on Friday, as a result of his injuries. Deceased was unhitch- ing the team, when the accident hap- pened. It is supposed that the horse was bothered by flies, as it was an un- usally quiet beast. O 4. r a f ♦ Men's Overcoats in all new colors, most fashionable • styles to show for Young Men's Trade.

Township Council will meet next Monday. A holiday visitor dropped in to see his old home, 9th line in the person of Manson Taylor, of Daysland, Alberta. It was a flying trip. Mr. Taylor went West 7 years ago and is greatly pleas- ed with the country and its prospects. The iron work of the Clegg bridge, 5th line, was completed last week but as a cement floor has to be put on some time will necessarily elapse before the bridge will be open to the travelling public. It cannot come any to soon as the high water made fording prohib- itive for a time. Jno, and Mrs. Bewley and son, of Woolsely, Sask., are here on a holiday visit with relatives and friends. The former is a son of Richard Bewley, 7th line. It is 13 years since Mr. Bewley went West where he has succeeded well. We welcome them to Morris. Voters' List Court for the Township of Morris will be held in Industry Hall, Blyth, on Saturday, September 28th, at 10 o'clock a. in. W1a,t4r WAWANONH. Some of our exchanges made reference to puff balls of great size. In a very fertile spot in Kenneth Cameron's or- chard there grew recently, in a period of nine days, a fungus or puff ball which attained in that time to a weight of nine pounds. It measured nearly eighteen inches across in its average diameter. Altogether this was probably one of the most phenominal puff balls to be found this side of New York. If no high wind comes between now and Octa:ier the 15th, Kenneth Camer- on will probably harvest, in his big orchard, nearly three hundred barrels of fruit. This is an off year with the spies, but the Ben Davis apples are there in marvellous abundance and the little Ontario trees are staggering un- der the weight of their luscious burdens. The probable value of this year's yield is between five and seven hundred dol- lars. D1LUSSIOLS. Colin McArthur is back from a trip to the old country. On account of serious illness, W. H. McCracken has resigned his position as financier of the A. 0. U. W., and has been succeeded by R. A. Pryne. A car of fine horses was shipped to Yorkton by Robert Lowe recently. He ^went West to dispose of the horses. Druggist Robert Work and Miss Mary McArter were married at the bride's home here last Tuesday. The groom comes from Toronto, although his parental home is in this locality. Peter Watson suffered a stroke of paralysis at his home recently, and is in a serious condition. He had one five years ago. Brussels buttermakers are not easily beaten. Mrs. Wm. Armstrong, one of the good ones, secured fourth prize at Toronto Fair in a large competition for table butter. She was, also an exhibi- tor at the London. Owing to his little finger not healing properly, Councillor Albert Dames had another piece of it amputated: His left hand was injured some months ago by the explosion of a dynamite cap, and his thumb and two fingers were blown off. He has suffered a good deal from the injuries. • • • PHONE 70. • • �4e4e4+•+••+e••444.+I4+444 40•44•.610444,44:44ee0♦•o4t-+e ---------- EAST WA.WANOSH.

Cholera infantum, diarrhoea, dy- sentry and stomach troubles are rife at this time and often a prec• us little life is lost after only a le: oursillness. The mother who k ps Baby's Own Tablets in the ho a feels safe. The occasional use o the Tablets prevent stomach an b el troubles, or if the trouble com suddenly- as it generally does—the Tablets will bring the baby safely through. The Tablets are sold by medicine dealers or by mail at 25 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. Abner Perrin had his right arm -torn off at the elbow when his coat csught on low shafting in a new Liskeard saw- mill. Judge D. J. Donahue, Senior Judge of Renfrew county, died at Homewood Sanitarium, Guelph. James Kelly fell into the hold of the tug Fisher on the way from Sarnia to the north shore and was killed. ”0.4••♦++•+•++••*•+$+4+4.0 •4024••♦•♦•••4440•94••:6•e• Now Fall Coats,' Suits and Skirts er•001,0000*0040440 '40000".•0'.3 s6:•O:v000004.00G0 44+++0.000 O - 0 0 ., R 4 0 v. 4NNOUNGIiMEiNT 0 • ___ ♦ a • • ♦ • a •• ♦ • • • 0 We have pleasure in advising the Trade • •• • that we will hold our first gr nd display o 'a of the Season's Styl in Headwear • • • • • • a * ♦ 9 THURSDAY SEPTI 191h1, • ♦ • 6 • • • 0 0 • jMISS'� REYNOLDS. ♦ o00r44SO4•044•0044.4- 0404.41,ua 04o+o,os•O+++e+*+o0♦•044!4 AT BARD'S • • • • •• •O ♦ • • • • • 4. • A t• We have just pas,:,ed intro st'-ck tv► o rhipm•:I: is 1:f NEW FALL COATS and SEPER- ATE SKIRTS.
