It is t you can aCqUire a of their magni- who, like the the Centennial APRIL 7, 1893 THE HURON EXPOSITOR ipsialak Expeeition, can form a faint conception, but 1 should judge that the number and coat here would be quite fourfold -taking into account all the stete buildiuge and streets representing foreign countries, in its archi- tecture end modes of life. There are over a *dozen general buildings,the largest of which is the manufacturers and liberal arts build- ing', which, though covering 11 acres more than the similar one at Philadelphia -viz.: set acres aud ten acres of galleries -yet its architectural beauties are so perfect that it does not seem to cover eo much land. The centre of the building is a great hall, with- out columns, 386 feet wide by 1,275 feet long. The iron trus,ses which support this roof spring,from the ground on all aides and rise to a height of 210 feet. I was informed that this magnificent part of the structure told to the two railwaye, Michigan Cen- tral and Illinois Central, for a depot, and will be erected in place of their present sta- tion down the city. This main building cost $1,500,000. No lets than seventeen miflion feet of lumber is used in its con- struction, five ear loads of nails were used to fasten the flooring to the joists, and the steel trusses in the central hall, before re-, ferred to, weigh twelve millions of pounds. Of course this is the largest and most ex- pensive of the groupebuteral of the main Buildings are very 1a and cost from three to five hundred thousand dollars oath. The Women's building was designed by Miss Sophia Hayden, ofBoston, and cost over $200,000. It is a very fine building, but inferior to many others in appearance. is entirely under the cnntrol of women. There are two dozenor more State buildings, -some of them larger than the main building at Toronto, costing over $200,000 eadh: In addition to all these there are scores of elaborate hotels and other buildings. The arrangements of the whole group, with its immense domes, spires, minarets, monu- ments, statuary, canals shrubberies, lawns -end flower gardens, with the lake dotted with men-of-war and crafts of every variety known, will present a picture such as prob- ably was never before witnessed. Outside the ground is a bonlevarde 600 feet wide extending from the fair grounds to Washington Park -seven blocks west- ward, called the Midway Plaisance, contain- ing bazaars of all nations, and will possibly be the mostinteresting feature of the show. Whole settlements of various countries, and gorgeous eastern palaces and peculiarities of nearly every nation. Hers, too, are Cyclo- ramas, side shows and recreations. The Ferris wheel is 250 feet in diameter, swung -on a shaft weighing 65 tons, 135 feet high. To the outer edge of this wheel cars are At- tached and people are lifted 250 feet in the air, where they obtain a view of the great panorama spread out before them. The great revolving mass weighs no less than 2,300 tone. Another attraction is the tower of Babel, 400 feet high, 100 feet at the base, with a spiral electric railway to take visitors to the top. Police and fire protection seem to be well cared for. Stand pipes,are seen everywhere with hose attached, and hose reels in every, convenient place. There is a complete sys- tem and a regular paid brigade. COMEDIES HERE TOO. Combines prevail here also. A syndicate has the monopoly of aupplying all the drink- ing water at one cent per glass. It is brought in a pipe 100 miles, all the way • from Watikeshau, Wisconsin. A firm of plumbers has the control of the " toilet houses," etc. ed. Dr. Johnson and ex -warden Freeborn took him in charge and sent word to the county crown attorney, who began investi- gations. Mr. Powers was brought in to the Stratford Hospital. -Pew rents in Trafalgar Street Metho- dist church, Mitchell, have been reduced to $1 a, sitting, and a number of .eats made free td all (miners. -Ai few days ago a valuable cow, the property of Mr. W. Dunn, of Fish Creek, died, atter giving birth to two fine calves. At present prices this means quite a loss. -Mrs. Miller, charwoman of the Crom- arty church, has been presented with a well filled purse for extra services occasioned by the Endeavor meetings. -Mr. Wm. Ross, of Mornington town- ship, sold a span of Sir Colin colts to Mr. Wm. Snider, of Waterloo, a few days ago, for $250. Such prices are seldom heard of nowadays. -Mr. Robert Ward, of the 13th conces- sion of Fullerton, has sold his splendid young draught stallion to a dealer from Ohio, for a good round sum ; he also sold a good young mare. -A friendly game of checkers was played the other evening between Russeldale and Cromarty clubs. The score stood 18 to 8, with . four drawe, in favor of the Crom- arty players. -The Stratford _Bicycle Club has organ- ized with the following officers: Honorary president, Mayor Monteith; president, C. E. Nasmyth; vice-president, M. Wade; secretary -treasurer, J. H. *Kenner. -The Pepper property, on the 3rd oon- cession of Logan, containing 25 acres, with good buildings, was sold by auction the - other day, and bought by, Mr. Wm. Rodger, for $1,825. -A bus driver in St. Marys, named Rol- and Brundle, had his face badly scratched and body somewhat bruised by being crush- ed between'the top of the bus and an arch- way under which he was driving. -Rev. Mr. Wood, of the village of Blen- heim, an old Mitchell High School student, and a brother of Dr. Wood, of that town, has received a unanimous call from the con- gregation of St. Paul's church, Wingham. -Mrs. Geizel, of Hamilton, while on a visit to relatives in Ellice, lost a valuable gold watch on the Huron Road, near Sebringville, on the 25th of January last. She advertised the loss liberally, but got no trace of the watch until last Saturday, when she found it in a city jewelry store, where it had been left for repave It is likely she will regain it as soon as the own- ership is proved.

On Sunday list I had the privilege of hearing the venerable Dr. Cuyler, of Clinton Avenue Presbyterian church, Brooklyn,who has been 47 years in the ministry, and whose literary works are known in every land. His sermon, based upon the words, "Arise and let us go hence," was a discourse full of the simple gospel of theist and his finished work for a lost world, The music of the quartette aud the noted organist of the First Presbyterian church here were simply inspiring. In the evening Dr. Talmage preached in the same church, and half an hour before the services began the jam was 'limply ap- palling. Rubbers were lost from the feet, buttons from coats,.,gloves dropped, and no one could stop to pick them up. All who got in were carried in by the flood. Every aisle was filled and so closely packed that ID some parts they failed to take up the usual collection. The doctor preached from the words, " The statutes of the Lord are right.", One man near me remarked "chest- • nuts, I heard him preach the same sermon ID Brooklyn ten years ago." I was not favorably impressed with the delivery of the -oration. His voice is harsh and lacking in modulation. His sermons read better than tke oral delivery, but he keeps up a sensa- tion by his witticisms. The disturbance at the doors by the hundreds who could not hear him caused him to etop and ask the " loud mouthed man at the door to shut up, which would be more satisfactory to the audience and himself."

Mandrake Blood Bitters CONSTANCIo Feb. ist, 1893. To I. V. FEAR, Druggist, Seaforth, Ontario: Dear Sir: For a long time past I have been greatly distressed Witk stomach trouble, suffering extreme pain -with headache nearly all the time. I had. tried every means within my reach, without relief; even physician's medicine had no effect. I was in a very despondent way when happen- ing to be in Seaforth ';lay, some- body recommended me to try Man- drake Blood Bitters. As it had re- lieved so many, I thought it might help me. I procured a bottle, and truly the relief was almost magical. From the first -few doses I began to improve, and, after taking a few bottles, I am like a different person altogether. Whereas life was a bur den to me'now it is a pleasure to live. If ever I have fttlysyniptoms of my oldtrouble, Bitters. asfew a'oses of your valu- - able remedy fixes me all right. With pleasure I recommend Mandrake • (Signed) WM. STEWART.
