Deer Seen Near Lucknow
1 While Wm. McNeil and Mark
Gardner were cutting wood in the
Joynt bush, a mile and a half from
I1.ucknow, they were very surprised
when a large red deer and her fawn
passed within a few rods of wh,re
they were working, and headed upto-
wards the 4th concession, running
along the bank of the Black River;
also a black bear was seen over on
the 4th of Kinloss a few days ago. Tt
seems the animals are corning back
to civilization. Hard tittles may be
even with the animals.

CHILDREN
CHILDREN will fret, often for ma
apparent reason. But there's al-
ways Castoria! Harmless as the recipe
on the wrapper; mild and bland as it
tastes. But its gentle action soothes!
a youngster more surely th.r'i a arose
powerful medicine. ,
That's the beauty of this special
children's remedy! It may be givea
the tiniest infant—as often as there
is need. In cases of colic, diarrhea oft
similar disturbance, it is invaluable.
A coated tongue calls for just a few
drops to ward off constipation; so
does any suggestion of bad breath.
Whenever children don't eat well.
don't rest well, or have any little
upset—this pure vegetable prepara-
tion is usually all that's needed.
