EDITORIAL NOTES
The Ontario Government has fixed
November 12th as election day to fill
the vacancy in the Legislature caused
by the appointment of the sitting mem-
ber, A. A. Mahaffy, in Muskoka, to be
County Judge. Nominations will be held
November 5th.
The bye -election in Richelieu resulted
in a Liberal victory, Mr. P. S. A. Car-
din winning from Mr E. A. D. Morgan
by a majority of 301. It was the first
bye-electiens in Quebec since the defeat
of Sir Wilfrid Laurier in the general
elections, and the success was the
cause of much elation among Sir Wil-
frid's followers. Sir Wilfrid Laurier
returned to the capital from Sorel, and
will remain there until the session
opens next month. He welcomes the
corning fight in the Commons, believing
that no Opposition since Confederation
ever met a Government with better
ground for vigorous and effective at-
tack in regard both to contrasted poli-
cies and to contrasted records.
Two bye elections for the Ontario
Legislature were held on Thanksgiving
Day. In North Waterloo, Ald. C. H.
Mills, Conservative, of Berlin was
elected by a majority of about 1,400
over Matthew Wayman, of Toronto,
Socialist, In East Middlesex, G. W.
Neely, Conservative, was elected by a
majority of 540 over Wm. Sutherland,
Independent. This riding was won by
the late Robt. Sutherland, Liberal, in
the last general election by a majority
of 25, but previous to that the riding
had given large Conservative majorites.
Mr. Sutherland was assisted by Mr.
Rowell, the Liberal leader and other
prominent Liberals as he had promised
to support the Liberal policy of Abolish
the Bar. Mr. Sutherland had always
been a Conservative.
CHURCH NOTES.
Anniversary services will be held in
St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church next
Sunday. Rev. Mr. McArthur will
preach at I1 a.m. and 7 p.m. Mr. McAr-
thur is an excellent speaker and large
congregations will no doubt hear him
next Sunday.
The induction of Rev. J. Carlton
McCracken as rector of the parish of
Wyoming, Camlaehie, and Wanstead,
took place in St. John's Church, Wyom-
ing, Thursday evening. Prior to their
departure from their late parish, Mr.
and Mrs. McCracken received two val-
uable presents from St. George's con-
gregation, the former reeei ging an eb-
ony gold -headed cane, and the latter a
life membership certificate in the
Woman's Auxilary. Mr. McCracken is
a son of Mr. and Mrs. John McCracken,
of Wingham.
Don't forget, says Farmer's Advo-
cate, when taking the horse off the pas-
ture that bran is one of the best and
most useful dry feeds for horses, and
that because it has mild laxative powers
it is especially useful for brood mares,
and because of its high protein content
it is well suited to the needs of young
horses and growing colts requiring bone -
and -muscle -forming rations.
is probably due to uric
acid in the system—the
blood must be purified --
the poisonous acid driven
out and general health
must be improved.
Thousands testily that
Scott's Emulsion rids the
system of poisonous acid
by enriching the impover-
ished blood, and its corn
centrated nourishment is
converted into red blood
corpuscles which drive
out rheumatism.

It is especially valuable
to aged people.

PASSING BY.
You who reet so safely in your beds to-
night,
You who midst your downy comforts
softly lie.
Ere the pleasant slumber steal your
senses quite,
Do you hear a footstep slowly drag-
ging by.
All your windows curtained, all your
doors shut fast
(Rows of silent houses, homes that
fear no foe!) --
Do ye sigh for pity, as those feet trudge
past?
Musing, "Tro' the darkness have
they far to go?"
You who rest so calmly in your graves
to -night,
You who in the churchyard very safe-
ly lie—
Do ye, as in dreaming 'neath your
crosses white,
Hear the restless footsteps ever pass-
ing by?
Steps that flag and falter, battling with
the blast—
Steps that halt and tremble, pressing
on so low;
Do ye sigh for pity,as those feet trudge
past?
Musing, "Thro' the darkness have
they far to go?"
—The Commoner.
The Stomach.
If your stomach's working right,
doing duty day and night, you will find
this life a blessing, sure enough, but
when it has jumped the track every-
thing seems out of whack, and the
road on which you toddle's pretty
rough. When a man can sit and eat
steaks and 'taters and repeat, you will
find he is contented and serene; but the
man whose stomach groans every time
he gnaws some bones, gets to be a
chronic sorehead, cross and mean. Oh,
his works are full of storms, and he
clamors for reforms, and he grouches
round the village by the year; when, if
he could eat some kraut, without turn-
ing inside out, you would see him wear
a smile from ear to ear. People talk
of brokeu hearts, and they weep by
fits and starts, telling how they long to
slumber in the tomb; if their stomachs
would allow them to eat a chunk of
cow, they would soon forsake their
brooding and their gloom. Nearly all
the grief and woe that we human beings
know come from stomachs out of kilt-
er, sure as fate; when man's stomach's
in repair he's as frisky as a bear, and
his bosom has no room for fear or hate.
—Walt Mason.
MOTHERS RECOMMEND
BABY'S OWN TABLETS
Mothers having once used Baby's
Own Tablets for their" little ones will
always be found using them as long
as there is a baby in the home. The
Tablets are acknowledgea by thousands
of mothers as being their best friend
inkeeping the littl ones well. Whether
it be constipaticolic, indigestion or
worms; whethe baby is suffering from
cold or has simple fever, or whether his
teething is difficult, the Tablets are the
one safe remedy which will speedily
cure him. They are guaranteed by a
government analyst to contain not one
particle of harmful drug and may be
given with benefit to the new-born babe
or growing child. Sold by medicine
dealers or by mail at 25 cents a box

LIVE STOOK MARICETS.
Toronto, Oct. 29—Trade was slow,
but prices held about steady for the
best butcher cattle. An extra choice
load sold at $6.35 for Montreal, this
being top price for the day. A few
choice picked lots of steers and heifers
sold around $5.60 to $6.15, but very
few at the higher figure. Choice butch-
er cows were firm, prices going up to
$5.50 the top. Choice feeding steers
and bulls steady at last week's prices.
For all the lower grades of cattle there
was a very slow demand, and prices
were hard to hold, and in many cases
were slightly lower than last week's
closing prices.
Sheep and lambs unchanged.
Hogs were weaker and are quoted
25c lower at $8.60 to $8.65 fed and
watered and $S.25 f. o. b.
