This was lost on a vote by a majority of 1. A eommnmcation wasreceived from Perth Council, asking the oo-operation of this council in securing amendments to the Ditohes.and Water Courses Ad, but no action was taken. Communications were received from Norfolk Council in reference to the pre- tection of municipalities in cases of ac- cidents on the public highways, and also with reference to boundary line bridges, but Council decided to take no action. The statutory grant of 1.25 was made to East Huron Teachers' Association. The Huron Law Aesooiatioa was granted the use of a room in the Court House for a library, but the application for a grant towards the purchase of library was not entertained, Hensel" and Manchester were created Police Villages for fire pro- tection purposes. A. number of accounts were ordered to be paid.—Concerning the account of Mr. Neelin, of Seaforth, of 586.87, the sum of $50 was ordered to be paid, the balance to stand over ; two co- coants were submitted by Dr. Stanbury, one of $2 for medical attendance on D. Ballantine, and one of 519 for attendance • on Jolm Bannerman, but the Finance Committee declined to recommend their payment ; Reeve Burns introduced a resolution asking that they be paid, which was defeated. A communication was re - Waived from Sheriff Gibbons in reference to the appointment of Mrs. Logie as matron for the county jail, in place of Mrs. Dickson, deceased, was ordered to Robt. Bell, ` f Robt. 730 or dam- ages to a steam engine, was referredto the Reeve of Tuokersmith.

Also that -tenders be asked for cedar bridge , and abutments for Turner's bridge, over the Bayfield river, and a bridge over a creek on Bauble line, in Hay, and have same built early next spring. The Property Committee reported certain repatre made to jail and court house, and recommended that the order for jail clothing, approved of by the Sheriff; be granted, and that his report respecting the jail be accepted, the com- mittee not having an opportunity of in- specting the jail at the present time. The House of Refuge special commit- tee reported that during October a storm had injured the wind mill, but the same was repaired by •party who erected it, wfthont met to the county. The com- mittee has furnished the building as per inetruotionsreceived last June. Arrange- ments have been made with the Bell Telephone Company for connection with the House of Refuge, for a term of three years, ata cost of $60. The committee considered the advisability of laying down some rule as to what clothing theininates should be in paeseesionof when received by the keeper into the house, and there. fore instraoted the keeper to receive no inmate uAless in possession of two suite of underclothes, one pair of good boots or shoes, and that every inmate should have the privilege of bringing one trunk, is bureau, one chair, andnothing else with- out the recommendation of the Reeve of the municipality which sends the inmate, and all etch goods will be subject to the approval' of the Keeper or Inspector.

Shortly before the council adjonrnotl Friday evening, Reeve Rata, of Stephen, intimated that he had decided to retire from municipal life, and in a few com- plimentary words thanked the coattail - lore fortheir fraternal relations during the 10 years he had been a .member. Reeve Cook, of Howiek, also Win -tailed' his intention of retiring after a similar term of service ; he had conscientiously opposed the House of Refuge, but he would frankly admit that he was how a convert, and would henceforth do all he could in its behalf, These two retiring addresses brought Mr. Kirkby to hie feet with the remark that "When the Rath were leaving a ship, it was a sign of a storm, but when the Cook was leaving also, it was time for them all to leave." Several other members jocularly stated that they were not cure whether they would retire or not ; if they got 'enough votes in January, they would come to the next meeting of the council, if they didn't get enough, "they wouldn't come beak."' Moved by W. H. Herr, seconded by Mr. Watson, that this council express its re- grets in parting with stalwart County Councillors in the persons of Reeves Rutz, of Stephen, and Cook, of Howiek, in their decision to retire from municipal life, and desire to place on record our high esteem for these gentlemen, as we have proved them to be faithful servants to their respective municipalities, and the county at Targe.—Carried.

Moved by Mr. 'Watson, seconded by Mr. bfollean, that the hearty thanks of the members of this council be tendered to the Mayor, council and citizens of the town of Clinton forr their exceedingly kind and courteous treatment to this council during the present session, in pro- viding them a convenient place for trans• acting their business, and entertaining them to a 'complimentary concert and banquet, the clerk to send a copy of this resolution to the Mayor. --Carried.

He called at the boob and aloe shop of John Toull, ging street west, and on entering the building the reporter found "Father Toull" as he is familiarly known in town, busily at work on a pair of shoes for one of hie many customers, at the same time bumming over to himself the tune of a cherished hymn, for by the way,, in his younger days, Mr. Toull was considered a good local' preacher among tbs Methodists of tine section id frequently filled the pulpits of our local churches in the pastor'sabsenoe,and he still loves to eing, preach or expostulate on some scripture theme or favorite hymn. The reporter was cordially received, and on making known hie bnsines, the old man's 0000. tenance brightened and his eyes sparkled with delight. It wss interesting to -note the fervency with which he volunteered as he said for the sake of humanity, to tell what he could of hie case, and we pill let it be told in his own words.He said: —"For 20 years I was subject to heart trouble and could get no relief, although I tried almost everything that kind friends recommended to me. bfy family phydfoian would sometimes give me some medicine that would help me for a short time, but without permanent benefit. He told me I might drop dead at any moment, and I tell you I expsoted to do so on many occasions. I had beard . of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills when they first came out bub I had need so, many reme- dies that I just about lost faith in every- thing of that kind, and bad become re- signed to my fate. However, I came in contact with so man at bad used Pink y that Pills,and who asan red me that they had beeubenefbtbad by their use, that at last I decided to give them 4 trial also, and several years ago I commenced taking them. I continued' their use until I had taken 8 boxes, and I am now happy to li say that I have haver had a symptom of thedisease since, and am convinced that by the blessing of God, Pink Pills tinted me. I might also say that last fall .I was attaoked with rheumatism, which became so bad that 1 could scarcely walk from my work to the house, and for a long time I could not get out to churcb. I tried a.nnmber of things recommended to bat received no good from their nee so I said to myself one day, y Pink Pills did me so much good before for my heart trouble, I'll try them again, so I gave them another fair trial, with the re- sult that the rheumatism bas all gone out of my bones, and I have nob been troubled a bit with it since. Everyone, said the old man, as he waxed warm over the thought of his happy experience, who knows old Father Tonle, knows that what he tells le the truth." After thanking Mr. Toull for, his kindness and courtesy,. the reporter left the shop with the same opinion as to the truth ofhis statements, and impressad with the belief that from hie rugged, hearty appearance and cheer- ful disposition, the old gentleman is still good for many years of a healthful, 000. tented life. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are the great- est blood•builder and nerve restorer known to medical science, and mare when all other remedies fail.

A mortgage has been described as an incentive to industry, a heavy mortgage,, as a sure sign of ruin. The last 1s particu- larly true, for if a mortgage is allowed to run it will eat up the farm. In this con- nection Mr. Henry Fowler, of Huron writes : "From my boyhood scrofulahad marked me for a'victim and it seemed as if it bad a life mortgage on my blood. I suffered fearfully with sores,, and'know- ing my condition I have remained a single man. Doctor after doctor prescribedfor me, and finally a Toronto specialist told me bluntly that my complaint was a deep-seated, incurable, blood disease. Sarsaparilla I knew was a good blood medicine, and I. sent for a bottle of the best. Mr. Todd, the druggist, sent me Scott's Sarsaparilla, and I have stuck to it! It has lifted my mortgage, for to -day I am free from those horrible sores, my eyesight is not blurred, my tongue is not furry, and I have no irritation. I look upon Scott's Sarsaparilla arilla as a marvellous medicine when it will cure a life long disease in so short a. time." Scrofula pimples, running sores, rheu- matism and all diseases generated by poisonous humors in the blood are cured y Scott's Sarsaparilla. The kind that cures. Sold only in concentrated form at $1 per bottle by your druggist. Dose from Half to one teaspoonful.
