Theron eleotipn day in London, judging by the party press reports, the sun rose and set very close to the person of Mayor Eseory and he was a paragon of virtues, gifts and graces not often embodied in one man. Since he was buried under an adverse majority of 800 votes the hurrahs hosannahs have ceased and he is said to be a bigot and a "no good." Public opinion is no safer a compass to sail by now than it was in the days of old but if the effusive compliments were put on with a little more reserve the toboggan elide would not be so noticeable afterwards. WEST Huron Patrons nominated J. Gaunt some months ago 11.8 the candidate for the Commons but he displeased them in connection with the recent Local Legislature election and since that time has been baaknumbered, by the leaders in the movement. Last Saturday a Con, vection was held at Carlow and a second standard bearer was placed in the field in the person of David Forrester, the well- known flax mill proprietor at Clinton. With Hon. J. C. Patterson, M. 0. Cam- eron, J. Gaunt and D. Forrester on the • program That Huron electors should be able to have a concert every evening. HALT a million dollars were invested in the Toronto newspaper—the Empire— that the Conservative party might have an organ that would do its bidding as the Mail bad kicked over the traces. After a stormy voyage of over six years, in which time all the stook subscribed has been called in, the Directors have come Ito the conclusion that the Empire must founder unless a change is made. The World says the proposed plan is to wipe out the old shareholders and hand the whole look, stock and barrel over to a syndicate, oonspicnous in which are the names of Messrs. Gault and Morrice, of the cotton combine. The World, whose Editor is a Conservative, M. P., adds :— The one mission the Empire so far has had is to pour a sickening stream of beslobberment over the men who happen to be the Conservative Ministers at Ot- tawa for the time being. The principles of the party are outlined, developed and defended by Conservative papers like the London Free Press, Hamilton Spectator, Montreal Gazette and others which are run as private enterprises, without sub- ventions, and without passing round the hat. 131y'th. Thanksgiving day .was generally ob- served here as a holiday. Two of our hotel keepers have had their sentry boxes put up the past week.

On Saturday evening Constable Davis accommodated one of Ooxey's army with lodging in the cooler. On Monday he was taken before the J. P's. and sent to Goderich for a term. On Thursday evening of last week, the platform meeting in the Methodist church was well attended. Excellent addresses were given by several minis- ters that were present. The choir rendered some excellent music during the evening. IS Face,—The BETRAYER PENTON I Blyth Standard says :—.-John R.

There 'was very little made out of the evidence given, the girl herself .admitted that he had been criminally intimate with her but not within the poet 12 mouths. He could not be convicted on this evidence and was discharged, The father of the girl then told Fenton that he did not want to eta him around bis' promisee again, as be had ruined bis daughter and brought disgrace on his family. At this Fenton grew angry and attempted to strike Tioungblatt but was prevented from doing so by Chief Davie, who re, calved the b low bimeelf. For this act Fenton wee tined $10 and coats.

Seventeen Years of intense Suffering from Rheumatism—Local Physicians and Treatment in Toronto General Hospi- tal Palled to Help Rini—now he was Restored to Health and Activity. From the Lindsay Post. There are few men better known in Victoria county than Richard Fitzgerald, who was one of the first settlers of the township of Carden. He was eleoted to the honorable position of reeve of that township for twelve successive years, and filled the position with so much accept- ance to the people that he was pressed to continue in office for a longer time, but was compelled to decline the honor. It therefore goes without saying that Mr. Fitzgerald is not only known to all the residents of the township, but that his word is considered by those who know him to be as good as his bond, and that upon anything he may say the most im- plioit confidence may be placed. When young, a stronger or more hearty man could not be found, but pos sassed of an iron constitution, he did what too many are prone to do, neglected his health, and exposed himself to all sorts of weather, often in the .pursuit of his calling as a farmer being wet to the skin for hours at a time. A little over seventeen years ago he found that he had contracted rheumatism of a muscular form, and each succeeding day found him in a worse condition. He applied to the local doctors in his neighborhood, but re. ceived no relief, and was then induced by them to apply for admission to the gen- eral hospital at Toronto for treatment, and was in that institution for several months, until he became disheartened all the want of success attending his treat- ment and returned home, as was thought, to die. By this time the muscles of his body had become so contracted that be could not straighten his limbs, and was forced to spend the greater part of his time in bed, and when able to get around at all it was only with the aid of a stout pair of crutohes. When he attempted to rise to his feet his legs would crack at the knees like sticks of wood, caused, as the (Motors told him, by the fluid in the joints being completely dried up. He was constipated to a fearful degree. When he retired at night there was not sufficient blood in his veins to keep him from feeling intensely cold, and in order to keep him warm his daughter knitted him woolen leggings and lined them with soft wool. Several times his family, a portion of whom reside in Michigan, were summoned home to see their father for the last time, as he was thought to be on his death -bed. Filially, after suffering as much bodily pain as would have killed an ordinary man, and at a time when he had not eat his foot on the ground for a year, he was Manual by bis son to give Dr. Williams' Pink Piga a trial, as lie had heard of the many remarkable cures made by that remedy, It was after much persuasion that he wag induced to give them a trial, as he had then vont a small fortune in medicines and different modes of treatment under which he had steadily grown worse, and he had de- spaired of finding anything that would help him. At last be began the use of Nov. 80. 1.894 08118 FOR J 1H1; sE RVIof B Undersigned will keep for service at Jot 11, Con Grey, a thoro'-bred Chester White boar and a registered Berkshire the latter purchased from J. 0, Snell, of 3d- mondtotr.
