B EL L4IOTT, PUBLISHER ANA PHOPIETOR THURSDAY, JANUARY 30. 1913 KLU LvALL, Court Douglass, C.O.F., are giving a banquet Tuesday night in honor of Mr. John Burgess. At the last meeting of the Literary Social and Debating Society, on Jan- uary 22nd, a spelling match was held. The following vice-presidents were el- ected: 1, W. H. Haney; 2, Cora M Messer; 8, Neil Robb. It was decided to start a journal to be called, "The Lit- erary Digest." The meetings are held every Wednesday night. The annual meeting of the congrega- tion of Knox church will be held on Friday afternoon of this week. The report issued covering last year shows the present membership to be 105. Nineteen members were added to the roll iind ten members moved from the bounds of the church. The general re- ceipts for the year amounted to $1302.- 17 1302:17 and of this sum $174.05 was contri- buted for missions. In addition to the above the Ladies' Aid Society raised $73.70; the Sabbath School, $65.30; Westminster Guild, $100.38; the Miss- ionary Societies, $94.33. This charge is vacant since the removal of Rev. W. J. West to Port Perry a few weeks ago. It is expected that a meeting of the congregation will be held shortly to consider the question of extending a call. The oyster snpper given by the Wom- en's Institute on Friday night was a success. the proceeds amounting to about forty dollars and when the ex- penses are deducted a good sum will be left to contribute to the Hospital for consumptive children. The supper was served in the basement of the Pres- byterian Church and afterwards a pro- gram was given in the Foresters' Hall. Mr. Robt. Black was chairman. He confessed that he used to have the im- pression that the Women's Institute was interested mainly in cooking, etc., but having read a copy of their annual report he was amazed at the breadth of their interests. Among other things he found a better survey of the work of the Hydro -Electric than he had ever seen before. Rev. J. E. Cook gave a good address, dealing especially with the motto of the Women's Institute, "For Home and Country." He told some good stories. Mr. W. H. Fraser referred in flattering terms to women in general and to Women's Institute women in particular. He admitted that in the few years since.it was organized, the Women's Institute has done more than the Farmer's Institute had in the thirty years of its existence. The Met- hodist Orchestra comprising, Mr. L. Ruttan and Mrs. Musgrove, violinists; Ernest Wilburn, tenor; horn and Miss Lilian McCall, organist, gave several numbers during the evening and solos were sung by Misses Carrie Diamond and Eva Duff and Messrs Peter King, W. H. Haney and Ernest Wilburn. The donation table was well patronized. The members of the Women's Institute deserve great praise for the enterprise and hard work which they devoted to this charitable purpose. CIILRONN Mrs. Moses Fitzell of Deloraine, Man., died on Jan. 1st of this year at the age of 57 years. She was before her mar- riage Jane McNeil, daughter of Mat- hew McNeil and lived on Con. 3, Cul- ross, now owned by Mrs. George Colvin. She left here with her parents thirty years ago. She leaves two daughters and one son, grown up. Her father, though 91 years old is still living. 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 testify that Scott's Emulsion rids the system of poisonou6 acid by enriching the impover- ished blood, and its con- centrated nourishment is converted into red blood corpuscles which drive out rheumatism. It is especially valuable to aged people. Ask for and insist ori scorT's. 6 +,ft.ctv,wse,Tot ito.Oattntiu 12v. • { WHAT A REAL TONIC WILL DO Strikes at the Root of Disease and Gives New Health. If you look in your dictionary you will find the word "tonic" defined as a medicine that increases the strength and vigor of the system." That tells why Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are a real tonic Thousands of men and women are ailing to -day, not sick in bed, but without strength and ambi- tion, utterly tired out after a day's work. No one organ seems to be at fault yet the whole system is lacking in health. They do not sleep well and are always tired and nervous, many have headaches, backaches and stom- ach trouble. All these people need the tonic help of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. The beneficial influence of this medicine reaches the whole system. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills do more than relieve the symptoms, they actually re- move the cause of the trouble. The case of Mrs. J. H. Sharpe, London, Ont., is one in proof of the above statements. Mrs. Sharpe says: "I was so run down and weak that life was a burden. The least exertion would ex- haust me so greatly that I could hard- ly breathe. If going up stairs, I would have to rest several minutes when I reached the top. My heart would pal- pitate until I felt as if it would choke me. I was extremely nervous, in fact a complete wreck, and would some- times have to remain in bed for a coup- le of days or more at a time. I found no help from medicine until I began us- ing Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and my experience with them was that they made a complete cure. I gained in weight and my friends tell me that I look younger than I did ten years ago -I know I certainly feel younger. I feel sure that what Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have done for me they will do to other women if given a fair chance." If you are at all unwell do not fail to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and you will find new health and strength. Sold by medicine dealers or by mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50 from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. (GREY. It is said Ad. Somers, 11th, con. will leave the R. Mitchell farm and move to the 5th. line, Morris, to the Hardy farm, owned by D. Smith. The 100 acre farm of RobertDavidson 12th Con., has been leased to James Cameron, now of the 14th con., who will get possession in the near future. Mr. Davidson will make a trip to the West where he may tarry if he finds what suits him. Austin Ra%nard has moved to the old homestead which had been leased to W. and F. Stephenson. Mr. Raynard disposed of his house on the "Jackson" farm to John Lake who will remove it to his farm across the road and will veneer it. It should make a comfortable home. Hugh. R. Elliott, of Brussels, has the contract. James Botz, 11th con., sold one of his farms, known as the "Pat Blake Place" to Thomas Alcock and has leased the old homestead to James Dickson, of the same line. Mr. Botz will take a well earned holiday and will visit in the North west and the United States. The fath- er of Mr. Bots was among the early settlers of the 12th con. Very few of the old timers are left on this line. Thomas Lauder, Registrar of South Grey since 1871, died at Durham, aged 84. LIVE STOCK MARKETS Toronto, Jan. 27. -City Cattle Mar- ket -Receipts were 6 loads, with 129 head of cattle and 40 calves. Business was very quiet, with only a few buyers on the market. The but- chers were nearly all taken by Messrs Frank Hunnisett,and Chris Waugh,and the Mathews, Laing Co. Prices were steady and unchanged from last week's quotations, though there was a firmer feeling due to prospects of colder wea- ther, which may tend to firm prices up again from the declines of the past week. Hogs -There was a stronger demand for hogs, and the market made a sharp advance of 25c, at $8.15 f.o.b., and $8.50 fed and watered.
