If you have, you certainly are in a position to appreciate the value of a roof that is positively water -proof. Some of the troubles common to wooden shingles to -day are that they are apt to split, warp or blow off as well as leak, soon after they are put on. Years ago they were good, but the quality has since gradually debreciated as the available supply of suitable tirttbee became exhausted. Brantford Slates have none of the faults of wooden shingles. They cannot rust. They do not allow rain to be driven under them as do metal roofs. They do not require rigid supporting as do the common tile or elate roofs. On the hand Brantford Slates afford the utmost protection with little weight. They are made on a long -fibred felt "base" which is thoroughly saturated under pressure with asphaltum or mineral pitch. Cradled quarried slate particles are then deeply embed- ded in the surface of this "base", making it water -tight and fireproof. Brantford Roofing Brantford Slates are made in the natural slate colors of green. red, black and grey. The colors never fade and the slates do not require painting nor repairing, These slates are pliable and fit readily around gables and into the angles of any roof. This means a continuous roof without seams or joints. Sparks die on Brantford Slates. When you have these slates "on" you are done with the job. Remember they don't require painting or staining and may be selected to harmonize with al- most any exterior color design, and the price is not beyond your reach. We would be pleased to send you samples and our Roofing Booklet.

This we did with the, intention of going up through the. famous Proveacks, we got as far as Sterling ,and found that owing to a wreck ,on the line we could not go any further. We paw Sterling Caistle and Wallace monument and though we were only n, mile from the field of Bannockburn we could not take time to run out and that trill !took us twice over the Iai'orth. bridge, the largest in the world, bull the navy, had disappeared der ing the night. That proved afree trip for they tga,ve us back oue money since they could not tate us ail the way. • We had a couple of .hours in Edinburgh, saw the castle, Nelson monument the old cemetery, etc. and took the train for Glasgow. We had' our tea in one of the famous Glasgow Tea Booms, and such a meal for 50c, it was beau- tifully cooked and served up. We took the midnight' train for Lon- don and after a fairly good sleep arrived just in tine to miss the train for Stratford 'her just oue minute. Tu one way it proved a good thing for we saw the famous wax, works and ,several places of interest.

Mrs. Wm McElwain, temperance Vale, N.B., writes: "I am not much of a believer in medicines, but I must say Milburn's Heart and Nerve Pills are all right. Some years ago I was troubled with smothering spells. In the night 1 would waken up with my breath all gone and think I never would get it back. I was telling a friend of my trouble, and he advised me to try Milburn's Heart and Nerve Pills. He gave the a box, and I had only taken a few of themwben I could sleep all night without any trouble. I did not finish the box until some years after when I felt my trouble coming back, so I took the rest of them and they cured me." Milburn's Heart and Nerve Pills have been on the market for the past twenty-five years. The testimony of the fusers should be enough to con- vince you that what we claim for them is true. H. and N.
