LIIOaN.oW,
Last Thursday night Miss Wellwood
gave a most interesting address on
China, in the Lucknow Methodist
Church. 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.

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.

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.

KEEP CHILDREN WELL
DURING HOT WEATHER.
•
Every mother knows how fatal the
hot summer months are to small child-
ren. 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

of Renfrew county, died at Homewood
Sanitarium, Guelph.
James Kelly fell into the hold of the
tug Fisher on the way from Sarnia to
