A, Stevenson of Afolesworth had charge of the Saturday and Sunday even., ing meetings in the Presbyterian church. He always gives us a good forcible dis. course. Owing to the illness of Mr. Davis, he was unable to fulfil his engagetnenta at Henfryn hast Sabbath, and consequently we were deprived of the pleasure of hear. ing the Rev. Mr. Smith on that evening.

The vote is to be taken a week from Sunday. If the old people were as ambitions as the young folks the church would go ahead much faster than it does. JOINT STOCK GErso MULL, — At the cheese factory meeting, held last week in this place, the question of organizing a joint run farmers'ogrid commill anon the to build ehort roll aye.. tem was dimmed. The proposal is to build it in bluevale but the matter will likely take definite shape ono way or the other on Feb. 15th, when the next meet- ing will be hold. It is quite a venture considering the depressed condition of affairs generally and would not be as easily engineered as the cheese factory, Almost any mill owner will sell out at a alight advance on coat if the farmers really mean Mignon. 011005n FACTOUL—Tho annual meeting of the BIuovalo Cheese and Butter Fac. tory Company was held in the Foresters' Ball, here, on Wednesday, January 290.

After using it a week I found my appe- tite much benefitted and can now eat as much in one mea1 as used to suffice me for two. For any rheumatic affection I believe it to be ahead of any drugs or patent medicines, and think that per- sons of a rbeumatio tondancy should use it constantly. 11. HUNTER, Clerk •Itlt Division Court, County Huron. MIt. ADAM Goon, Brussels. Dear Sir,—The St. Leon 1%tineral Wat• er that I have been getting from you has done me so much good that I cheerfully give my testimony in its favor and hope others may be persuaded to give it a trial. WA[. KNECrcTEL, SR. Brussels, Jan, 7, 1890. This water, the Iike of which is found no where else but ab St. Leon, in the Province of Quebec, resembles all nat- ure's productions, an egg or grain of wheat for instance. We can tell what an egg or grain of wheat is composed of but man is utterly unable to make a grain of wheat or create an egg and he is just as unable to ooantcrfeit St. Leon Mineral Water. But kind nature has done for ns what we could not do for ourselves—brought the sixteen different ingredients of this water together in the proper proportions, mixed them and pours them forth in a copious stream. I am in a position to supply this re- markable water, absolutely pure, straight from the wells, at a price that leaves little after covering the cost of bringing it this far.
