Pinoombe, of Usborne, met with what might have been a fatal accident.

Scott. As chairman of the Board, he has been a most efioient trustee, and we commend the County Council for its wisdom in retaking the change. Mr. Acheson, of Goderieb, wen also re -appointed to the Board of that place. In Seefortlt no change was made to the first appointment. PEItw1AN LEGEN 1). In Sir William Jones' "Persian Gram- mar" may be found the following beauti- ful story from Nisami :-- one evening Jeans arrived at the gates of a certain city. And he saw some people gathered together looking at an object on the ground, and as he drew near he saw that it was a dead dog with a halter round his neck. And those who stood by looked on i the pain fn my beck anal both logs were with abhorrence. 00 drawn rap that I was nnablo to straight- en them, and for four months when I wanted to trove about I had to do so on my hands end knees. I tried many medi- cfues hot got no benefit and I had given op all hope of being ehle to walk again. One of my sons tried to persuade 111e to use Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, but i re. fused to take any more medicine. At last one day my son brought home three boxes of the pills, and after they hacl beau in the house for over two weeks, I at last cousentod to take thein, bot not because I thought they would cls me any good. before 71im and went their way. Before they were gone, however, I cotild _ _ foel that my back was getting stronger I'.1'r 1S i'llE IDtte'!L. and I could straighten up. It required no farther persuasion to got me to take the pills, and from that tilne on I began to get bettor, until now with the aid of a light cane, I eau walls all over the farm, get iu and ottt of a buggy, and do most of the oltores round the house anal barns. 0 feel twenty years younger, and I consider Dr. Williams' Pink Pills the most won• derful medicine for rheumatism in 111e whole world. I began them only to please my son and ft was a most agreeable sur• prise to me when I found my legs limber, and my back gaining new strength. 1 can oheerfnlly recommend Dr. Williams' Pink Pills to the seiferiug rheumatics of the world. Au analysis shotes that Dr. Willunne' Pink Pills contain hi a condensed form all the elements necessary to give new life and richness to this blood, and restore shattered nerves. 'Tey are an unfailing specific for such diseases as l000motor ataxia, partial paralysis, St, Vitus' dance, sciatica, neuralgia, rhetnilatism, nervolte headache, the after effects of la grippe, palpitation of the heert, nervous prostra. tion, all diseases pending upon vitiated humors in the blood, suc11 as scrofula, chronic erysipelas, etc. They aro also a specific for troubles peouliar to females, such as suppressions, irreggularities, and all forms of weakness. They build up the blood, and restore rho glow of health to pale and sallow cheeks. In mon they effect a radical cure in all cases arising from mental worry, overwork, or excesses of whatever nature.

John Sherman. Ile is one of the many Canadiaue who at the out -break of the American rebellion, joined the army of the North, and to the exposures and harcdships which he endured during that trying and perilous time, does Ile owe to long years of suffering which he has since undergone, The writer remembers see. ing Mr, Sherman a few years ago whoa he was so crippled with rheumatism that it WSS impossible for 11in1 to walk, and having heard that a curo bad been effect- ed, determined to investigate tiro matter for 1111000lf. When the relporter called nt Mr. Sheiulau's home lee faunal him in the 'oral handling an axe and chopping wood like n young Hutu, and he found him also quite willing to relate his trying experience.

Henderson, of the Grip House, met with a nasty accident. He was standing up on a chair, winding the clock in the bar, when the chair upset, and in falling Mr. Henderson knocked down some glasses and bottles, one of the bot- tles striking him on the top of the head, inflicting a nasty cut. It is stated that a ytung m011 named Henderson left home some time ago, with- out letting his parents know of bis where. abouts. In the lest issue of Harper's Weekly is given an illustration of the new Irish Opera, "Shamus O'Brien" as play- ed in New York, and in the centre of the company appears a picture of Henderson as one of the performers. W. H. Cline got a fine snow bath on Sunday lest. He was passing along the street at the side of the Metbodist thumb, when an avalanche of snow slid off the roof, nearly burying him alive. His hat was driven down over his face, and the rim torn off by the force of the down fall, but, fortunately, he was more frightened than Burt, es at first he thought it wan a message from the other world. About half -past seven on Monday even- ing of last week Broadfoot's whistle blew for a fire, with ouch vociferousness that people scurried down the street from all directions, and the firemen were on hand, but it was ouly another false alarm.
