On Wednesda.. evening of last week
Miller's blacksmith shop was complete-
ly destroyed by fire. How the fire
started is a mystery. The volunteer
fire brigade did good work in saving Mr -
H. T. Thomson's store which was only
a few feet away from the burned build-
ing.
Ntlu
.lames Bowman, M. P. was home
from Ottawa for the Easter holidays.
The Clegg farm, 5th line, has been
leased for a year by James Mitchie,
who owns the adjoining 100 acres on the
West.
W. H. and Mrs. Watson and son,
Hugh, 5th line, left this week for the
West, their destination being Medicine
Hat. Alta. Mr. and Mrs. Watson were
old residents of Morris who carry with
them the good wishes of many old friends.
Word has been received that Eliza-
beth Fisher, eldest daughter of W. H.
Watson, late of Morris, died in British
Columbia on March 8th. She leaves
two children, one a babe three weeks
old, It is 10 years since Mrs. Fisher
went West.
At the last Council meeting the con-
tract for the steel superstructure for
Sunshine bridge was let to Hill & Co.,
of Mitchell, S. S. Cole, of Ethel, will
build the Sunshine abutments and R.
Vint, of Blyth, similar work for Blyth
Creek bridge and what is known as Rut -
tan's bridge, 1st line.
Tuesday morning of last week, John
McVettie, an old and highly respected
resident of Morris, paid Nature's debt,
in his 78th year. He had been in fail-
ing health for several months but was
only in bed for a week. Heart weak-
ness was the cause of death. Deceas-
ed was born near Kingston and came
with his parents to Tuckersmith town-
ship in his youth. On coming to Morris
he secured a bush farm,Lot 15, 1st line,
on which he spent a good many years
of hard work. Over 50 years ago Mr.
McVettie was married to Miss Nancy
Fraser, of the same line, who with one
son (J. Milton) and two daughters (Mrs.
James Moffat and Mrs. Walter David-
son) survive. 15 years ago the subject
of this notice bought the A. K. McAll-
ister farm, 2nd line, where the family
reside. Deceased had been a very hear-
ty and industrious man and was deserv-
edly esteemed. He was a Presbyterian
in religion and a Liberal in politics.
Funeral took place Thursday afternoon
to Bluevale cemetery. The bereaved
share in the sympathy of the community.

The wonderful record of
Scott's Emulsion as a body-
builder has been proved for
three generations. It strengthens
the bones, muscles and sinews;
ieitds the body, creates energy
and vigor; prevents and relieves
colds and fortifies the lungs.
Millions of delicate and un-
developed children have been
made strong, sturdy and hearty
with Scott's Emulsion.

Nature Needs Aid in Making
New Health -giving Blood,
In the spring the system needs a ton-
ic. To be healthy you must have new
blood just as the trees must have new
sap to renew their vitality. Nature de-
mands it, and without this new blood
you will feel weak and languid. You
may have twinges of rhematism or the
sharp stabbing pains of neuralgia. Of-
ten there are disfiguring pimples or er-
uptions on the skin. In other cases
there is merely a feeling of tiredness
and a variable appetite. Any of these
are signs that the blood is out of order
that the indoor life of winter has les-
sened your vitality. What u need in
spring is a tonic medicin to put you
right, and in all the wort of medicine
there is no tonic can qual Dr. Wil-
liams' Pink Pills. Th a pills actually
make new, rich, red bl od—your great-
est need in spring. This new blood
drives out the a of aisease and
makes easily tir men, women and
children bright, a ive and strong.
Mr. John Walfield, La Have Islands,
N. S., writes: "I take great pleasure
in teliing what Dr. Williams' Pink Pills
have done for me. I am a fisherman
and fifteen years ago through hard work
my system became run down and I could
scarcely work at all. I lost in weight;
my blood became poor, and I was very
weak. I consulted several doctors but
their treatment did not help me so I
decided to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.
and in a short time I was entirely well
again. My wife and daughter also used
them with benefit. We think so much
of the Pills as a family medicine that
we always keep them in the house."
These Pills are sold by all medicine
dealers or can be had by mail at 50
cents a box or six boxes for $2.50 from
The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brock-
ville, Ont.
LIIEVALE.
Paul & Jewitt shipped a car of hogs
this week.
Miss Wilma Shaw visited friends at
Listowel last week.
Mrs. Snell spent Easter with relatives
at Clinton.
Mr. J. Johnston shipped two cars set-
tlers' effects to the West this week.
Mr. Morris Smeltzer is quite ill. His
many friends wish him speedy recovery.
Fred Churchill spent a few days this
week with his brother, Harvey, at
Elmstead.
As the hotel has been closed, travel-
lers arriving in Bluevale by the late
train are sometimes put to considerable
inconvenience to find a place to spend
the night.
Following is list of Easter visitors in
the village:—Dan O'Toole, Toronto at
L. Ruttans; Misses Nellie Burgess and
Mabel Coultes, Toronto at their homes;
Robt Masters. Toronto, with his brother
Jas; Misses Mary Stewart, Florence Ait-
cheson and Luella Shaw, of Stratford,
at their homes; Mr. W. H. Stewart, of
Bowling Green, at Thos. Stewart's.
Among the Easter visitors in Bluevale
were: Miss Elsie Gannett of Toronto
and Miss Myrtle Davis of Listowel and
the Misses Black of Blyth. Mr. and
Mrs. John Raby and Miss Mabel of
Wingham were saying farewell to their
Bluevale friends during the holidays as
they intend removing to Forest where
Mr. Raby ,,has a position as manager
of a farm.
Much damage was wrought by the
heavy winds in this vicinity Good Frioay.
John Manns' barn was blown down;
Wm. Thornton's driving shed was un-
roofed; David Jewitt's barn partly un-
roofed; a bunch of slate roof taken off
Henry Diamond's house; John Hall's
silo blown down; Nelson Thornton's brick
house was blown in and means a heavy
loss. Very few buildings with the ex-
ceptions of the newly shingled ones,lost
considerable amount of shingles. Ike
Farrand's barn on 2nd line was complet-
ely wrecked.
The last regular meeting of the best
Literary Society was held in
B 1 u e v ale on March 19th, and
was considered by many the most en-
joyable of the season. The Society
had the pleasure of hearing addresses
by Rev. J. W. Andrews of Fordwich,
formerly of Bluevale; Rev. J. W. Hib-
bert of Gorrie and the Hon. President,
Rev. J. E. Cook. The speeches of these
gentlemen were marked by delightful
wit and humour. An address of an in-
structive nature was given by A. Mac-
Ewen on "Energy" and R. N. Duff
spoke on "The Old Burg", giving rem-
iniscences of Bluevale and the surround-
ing country. The closing number of
the "Literary Digest" contained an ar-
ticle about life on, a British Man o' War
by Jas. Carberry. Mr. Carberry spoke
from personal experiences as he served
for thirteen years in the British Navy.
Several selections were given by the
new orchestra which consists of L. Rut -
tan, Mrs. M. Watson and Howard Stew-
art. Wm. Spiers contributed a number
of violin solos. There were songs by
Miss Bertha Haney, Miss Eva Duff,
Earnest Wilburn and Fred Johnston,
and an original chorus, "The Bluevale
Literery." A humorous reading was
very pleasingly rendered by Miss Bessie
Moses of Jamestown,whe will be warm-
ly welcomed here in future.
The hurricane on Good Friday did a
great amount of damage in this district
and the list of those who suffered losses
is too long to enumerate. Windows
were smashed . trees and fences level-
led, silos and windmills wrecked while
very few barn roofs escaped some dam-
age and a number of houses were injur-
ed as well. The heavy rain on Sunday
night added considerably to the damage
in the houses and barns which had been
injured.
CHURCH NOTES.
At a largely attended meeting of the
Maitland Presbytery held in Brussels on
Tuesday of last week, Rev. A J. Mann,
formerly of Woodville, was inducted in-
to the pastorate of Melville Church.
Rev. T. M. Wesley of Wroxeter preach-
ed, Rev. D. Perrie of Wingham address-
ed the congregation, and Rev. D. A.
McLean of Ripley addressed the minis-
ter. Rev. Mr. Perrie, interim moderator
for the congregation, was presented
with an address and a purse of gold. A
reception was held for Rev. Mr. Mann
in the evening, at which a musical and
literary programmh,was rendered.
Lava' STOOK MARKETS
Toronto, March 25 -Following on the
Easter holidays receipts were very
light at the Union Stock Yards this
morning and the trade failed to show
any improvement over the slack period
of the past few weeks.
Buyers' demands also continue very
light, which, they say, is due to the un-
usually large supplies that are at pres-
ent in cold -storage, which makes it un-
necessary for them to buy any great
amount of live stock, while prices also
are still considered to be somewhat pro-
hibitive to heavy buying.

W. Barton, of New Zealand, writing
in Hoard's Dairyman, says that he has
700 cows running on a ranch simply for
the purpose of breeding beef cattle.
Most of these are so wild . that they can
be approached only on horseback. Every
year the old cows are culled out and sent
off the ranch to be fattened on the farm
for slaughter. Two of these old cows,
which have never been broken to milk,
showedi
s gas of being in calf when
brought in, and at nine years old they
dropped calves and gave eight gallons of
milk a day for a period of two months.
Hundreds of lives were lost and
heavy damage to property resulted
from a tornado which swept the west-
ern States.

W. Barton, of New Zealand, writing
in Hoard's Dairyman, says that he has
700 cows running on a ranch simply for
the purpose of breeding beef cattle.
Most of these are so wild . that they can
be approached only on horseback. Every
year the old cows are culled out and sent
off the ranch to be fattened on the farm
for slaughter. Two of these old cows,
which have never been broken to milk,
showedi
s gas of being in calf when
brought in, and at nine years old they
dropped calves and gave eight gallons of
milk a day for a period of two months.
Hundreds of lives were lost and
heavy damage to property resulted
from a tornado which swept the west-
ern States.
