Lakeside Hockey Game.
In the Wiegham rink on Wednesday
evening last, there was a large crowd
to witness the Lakeside League hockey
game between the Wingham and Brus-
sels teams. The Wingham boys won
by a score of I0 to 8, The teams lined
up as follows:—
Brussels —Goal, Lowery; point, Garry;
cover, Scott; rover, McMillan; centre,
Ross; right, Bell; left, Fox.

cover, Spence; rover, Fender; centre
White; right, Stonehouse; left, Moffatt.
Iv :r. Business Man.
No clear headed business man could
be without lire or life insurance. And
there is an analogy between safeguards
and adverti.;?ng. Think it over a little
while you will soon be convinced that
advertizing is the best insurance of pre-
sent and future prosperity that you can
buy. When you get to that point a
little farther mental exercise will bring
with it the conviction that the TIMES is
the best paper in this district to act as
your advertizing insurer. " No business
man is properly insured unless he is in
the Three.
DON'T SCOLD BABY
FOR BEINGCROSS
Mothers, don't scold your little%ones
for being cross. A baby's ff .fiature is to
be happy and if he is cross it is not his
fault --crossness shows [fat he is un-
well and needs aAoodedicine to bring
him back to the l alt`hy, happy state
again. Baby's 0 Tablets are the
best medicine a mother can give her
little ones to keepthem happy and well.
There is a smile in every dose, They
cure constipation, indigestion, expel
worms, break up colds and make
teething easy. The Tablets are sold
by medicine dealers or by mail at 25
cents a box from The Dr. Williams'
Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont.

CHURCH NOTES.
At the service in the Salvation Army
Hall on Sunday afternoon next the
commissioning of local officers will take
place. The public is cordially invited
to attend this service.
Rev. W. J. Howson, a former pastor
of Wingham Methodist Church, has
been tendered a unanimous invitation
to remain as pastor of Glencoe Meth-
odist Church for another year.
Sacramental service will be held in
St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church on
Sunday morning, March 2nd. The us-
ual preparatory service will be held on
Friday afternoon, February 28th.
On Tuesday night next in the Metho-
dist Church, Rev. Dr. Rutledge will

on The Pilgrim's Progress. Subject
for the evening:—Vanity Fair; Fight-
ing on Low,,Levels.
Prior to leaving London, Rev. W. L,
and Mrs. Steeves, formerly of Wing -
ham, were kindly remembered by the
members of the congregation. Mr.
Ste eves was presented with a hand-
some gold watch, and Mr. Steeves with
a beautiful cut glass salad bowl and
salt and pepper casters.
No Ensilage to Horses.
Four fatal cases of cerebral mening-
i tis in young horses in nearby districts
to Ingersoll have been traced by Dr.
Harrison, V. S., to ensilage, which had
been freely given to them, and he has
warned farmers to discontinue feeding
it. Ali of the horses that succumbed
to the disease were under five years of
age, and of considerable value. One
farmer lost a fine span worth upwards
of $500, he having refused $225 for one
them. In each case Dr. Harrison made
a careful inspection of the water and
food from which the horses were sup-
plied, and he is positive their death was
due to the ensilage, Ensilage is the
principal food for cattle during the win-
ter, but Dr. Harrison claims that it is
very dangerous for horses. The four
cases of cerebral meningitis are the
first to come under Dr. Harrison's not-
ice in six years._ _
Fine Mare Killed.
Frightened by a C. P. R. yard en-
gine on Sunday afternoon, a valuable
standard bred mare, Lady Van, owned
by Mr. Richard H. Prior, escaped from
the man at her head and dashed onto
the tracks and ran between the rails in
front of the oncoming engine. A mom-
ent later the train overtook the animal
which was cut to pieces under the
wheels and a sleigh was reduced to kind-
ling wood at the same time. Mr. Prior's
loss will be heavy, as the mare was val-
ued at $51.0. The mare had a record of
2.30 and was showing form which in-
dicated that she would reduce that fig-
ure this summer. The above is from a
Port Arthur paper. Lady Van's dam
was bred in Wingham and was sired by
King Eagle, a horse owned here some
years ago. Mr. Prior is a former resi-
dent of Wingham and old friends here
will be sorry loss.

One man in a hundred reads a book;
ninety-nine in a hundred read a news
paper. Nearly a century ago, when
the press, which is now a spreading oak,
was in its green twig, Thomas Jefferson
said he would rather live in a country
with newspapers and without a govern-
ment than in a country with a govern-
ment and without newspapers. At the
beginning of 1913 resolve to take or at
least say a good word for your home
