Nine persons out of ten will look at the above
letter and think that to count the number of dots
would be very easy. Still there are comparatively
few who can do it correctly. It requires not only
perseverance buta clear head and a steady eye,
irith just enough ingenuity to devise a plan that
will prevent mistakes and complication. If you
doubt this try it and see for yourself. If you suc-
ceed it will be worth your while to consider the fol -
towing offer: -
To the first ten persons sending in the correct
number we will give each A CRISP„_ CLEAN
TEN DOLLAR BANK NOTE. To the ten
versons sending in the middle correct answers we
mill give A FIVE DOLLAR BILL, whileto the
int ten persons having correct answers we give
each Illo.00 IN GOLD. Should no person have
the correct number the presents will be distributed
among those whose answers are most nearly right.
in addition each day we will give A GENUINE
,DIAMOND RING to the person whose letter is
the first opened that day, whether the answer is
correct or not. Each contestant must enclose 35
cents in silver, or twelve three -cent stamps, to pay
for one of our little gem tea packets. which con-
tain a hall -pound of our best YOUNG HYSON,
SLACK, JAPAN. or MIXED TEA, as desired.
In ordering kindly state which kind you use and i:
Ube sent, with all charges prepaid, to your ad-
dress. Remember you pay tor the tea only. The
presents are given= away in order to induce new
customers to test our teas. This tea is guaranteed
to be a better article than that you now get from
mour grocer for the same price. We are enabled to
snake this unprecedented offer because WE ARE
LARGE IMPORTERS AND SAVE THE
MIDDLEMEN'S PROFITS, which we give to
-our custom .rs. We think that u _trial will con-
vince you. and that if you once buy from us you
-will continue to do so. That is our reason for
making this offer. AS TO OUR RELIABIL-
ITY we would refer ycm to any leading bank or
commercial agency in this city. WE HAVE

Mery made atiswor, and alma listlessly.
" De you imagine 1 have not considered
everything, night after night, eye, and
every hour of the night, all the way
through? He will never come back to
Loctgtrra-if it is to speak to me that you
mean. I have told You before ; it seerns
fatality that he and his ehould receive
nothing but injury and insult at our hands,
from onc member of our family after an-
other ; and never has there been a word in
reply -never a single syllable of reproach --
hut only kindnesses innumerable, and,
thoughtfulness and respect. Well, there is;
an end of respect now. How ee.n he have:
ane thing but scorn of me? If I were to;
confess to him that I had believed thati
story -even for one frightened moment -
what could he think of me ? Why, what he
thinks of me now -as a base creature, ig-
noble,- ungrateful, unworthy-ohl do you
imegine I cannot read what is in that rean's
heart at this moment,?"
Do you imsgine I cannot?" s3id Kath-
chee, boldly. "1 have not been 'blind all
these mouths. What is in that man's
heart, Mamie, is it passionate love and de-
votion towards you; and there is no injury
and no insult he would not forgive you if
he thought that you -that you -well, that
you cared for him a little. Oh, I know
both you and him. I know that you are
wilful and impulsive; and I know that he
is proud and sensitive and reserved; but I
think -I think -well, Mamie, no more

cisely What I please." ,
And that was all she would sly mean-
while. But next day was a busy day for.
Kate Glendinning. First of all she went
straight to the minister and demanded
,pointblank whether there was, or could be,
any foundation for that story about Anna
Clannach • and the minister -not directly,
of course:hut with many lamentations' in
his high falsetto, over the wickedness ofthe,
humau mind in harboring and uttering slan-
ders and calumnies -answered that he had
known Anna Chtnetach all her life, and that
she had been half Witted from her infancy,
and that the tale now told him was an en-
tire and deplorable fabrication. Indeed; he
would have liked to enlarge on the theme,
hut Kate was in a harry. For she had
heerd in passing through the village that
the Gillie Ciotach was about to go over to
Heinnraowith the parcels and letters; that
bad come by the previous day's mail; and
it occurred to her that here was a happy.
chance for herself.
"Now, Andrew," she said, when she was
seated comfortably in the stern of the lug-
ger, "keep everything smooth -for me. - I
baven't once been sea -sick since I came to
Lochgarra, and.I don't want to begin now."

"Aw, is it the sea•seeckness ?" said the
Gillie Ciotach. 'Well, mem, when you
feel the seekness coming on just you tell
me, and I will give you something to mek
you all right. Aye'I will give you a good

will make the seecknees jump out of your

" Whisky ?" said Kathchen. "Do you

, CONSTANCE, Feb. 1st, 1893.
To I. V. FEAR, Druggist, Seaforth,
Ontario:
Dear Sir: For a long time past I
have been greatly distressed with
htomach trouble, suffering extreme pain
-with headalhe 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 one day, some-
body recommended me to try Man-
drake Blood Bitters. As it had re-
lieved so many, I thought, it might
4elp 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 any symptoms of my
old trouble, a few doses of your valu-
able remedy fixes me all right. With
pleasure I recommend Mandrake
Blood Bitters.

j -Listowel had quite an exciting time
while theflood lasted. Bridges threatened
with destruction had to be cabled and
anchored, ice jams had to, be cut away
and many cellars were flooded, but the dam-
age was not very great after all.
-The Mitchell Recorder seys : The well
known 'stallion, "Pride of 'Scotland," was
sold by auction last'week and bought by one
of the Peppers for $25. Tie stallion is' a
handsome imported animal, but is so savage
that no man cares to have anything to do
with him.
-Rev. H. Gracey, of Ganesnoque, former-
ly pastor of Thames Road, near Exeter, has
been presented with a purse of money and
given eix weeks' absence. He goes to Tor-
onto, New York and southern points. He
suffers from bronchial affection.
-Several of the young people of Atwood
went skating the other night, and while
enjoying the sport Miss Kate Wilson broke
through the ie and fell into the deep water.
Her brother TJamee seeing the accident
bravely spran in after her and succeeded in
getting her on firm ice.
-During the coming season a large num-
ber of factories in the Stratford district will
pay for their milk aceordlog to the amount
of butter fat as ascertained by the Babcock
teeter. Among those that will adopt the
tester are Avonbenk, Fullarton, Black
Creek, Tavistock, Avondale, Elms, Newry
and Trowbridge.
-Two boys playing on the railway track
in Palmerston on Saturday, found the dead
body of an iniant in the snow, where it had
lain buried for some time until uncovered by
the thaw. A jury was empannelled by
Coroner Forster, who returned a verdict of
wilful murder against some person or per.
sons unknown.
-To induce the McCormick Harvesting
Machine Company of Chicago to locate
their Caoadian branch there, Stratford
offers a ten -acre site, a free siding to the
grounds, free water, exemption = from taxes
for ten years, and a guarantee that freight
rates will be no higher at Stratford than at
any competing point.
-The census returns for Listowel show a
decrease in the number of manufacturing
establishments between 1891 and 1891 from
63 to 38. Capital from $407,56% to $215,--
385. 'Number of hands from 503 to 243.
Wages from $151,985 to $57,960. Cost ma-
terials from $563,229 to $304,050, and value
of products from $862,825 to $464,750.
brother, who wars with him, hearing the
crash, at once began to dig him out. Dr.
ice, of Atwood, was immediately summon-
ed, and found that beeidee being badly in-
jured internally his face was cut and his
hip bones crushed. The injured men's con-
dition is slightly improved, but he is still in
a very critical state.
Named for Her.
Sometimes a mother would gladly name
her baby for a dear friend, but is prevented
because of the undesirability of the name
itself. A capital way of overcoming thin
difficulty is auggested by the following anec-
dote in the Youth's Companion:
A well known writer was telling a friend
about some of her numerous grandchildren
who are scattered *II over the country.
They are of all ages and nationalities, but
the most remarkable one is a little colored
child in Washington.
When I went there one winter, my wash-
erwoman told me she had named her new
baby for me, and asked if I wouldn't come
and sea it. So, armed with a large rattle
as e propitiatory offering, I visited the baby.
What was my surprise to hear the mother
and all the children epeak of her as "Gene-
vieve."
ell" Why," I said, "1 thought you told me
e was named for me ?"
" Yas'm, so she shorely is."
"But my name is Harriet," I insisted,
"and you cell your baby 'Genevieve.'"
"Laws, miss'," exclaimed the mother,with
a broad grin, "Genevieve 'scribes you so
much better 'n Hareet does !"

To Say as Well as Think.
With our onward march toward a higher
civilization, and the curbing, pruning and
suppressing of emotions incidental thereto,
we have swung the pendulum to the other
extreme, and well nigh eradicated, by long
suppression, many emotions that should,
with proper regulation, be the motors of
life'e progress, and presently, with the
absence of all demonstration, we shall be
like unto a dull prose book without any
illustration, dignified truly, but lifelees and
uninteresting.
Ninety-nine men out of a hundred like to
haee a little finis made over them; they de-
clare that they do not, that it is a bore, but
in their inmost souls they do like it, and
they go away to business in the morning
with the cockles of their masculine hearts
well warmed by that same feminine fusei-
nese which is so impetiently deplored during
its action.
"Jack', you'll need your overshoes 1" or
"Jack, dear, you should take an umbrella,
it looks very much, like rain !" and "Ob,
Jack, I laid out your mackintosh 1" and the
ninety and nine Jacks wear the overshoee,
• and carry the umbrella and mackintosh, and
have a comfortable day, and bless the fussi-
ness (if the storm be very severe, they call it
thoughtfulness) that provided such comforts.
The hundredth man gets wet, and he cer-
tainly deserves to.
A little demonstrative interest now and
then is very acceptable. I do not mean sen-
timental gush nor maudlin beby talk, but I
do mean a good, genuine, hearty sympathy,
a camaraderie that shows itself in cordial
tone, in pleasant glance, and in a firm hand-
clasp; in short, a little healthful demonstra-
tion of eentiment that has about it no touch
of sentimentality.
I know a fellow, a great warm-hearted,
grown-up boy, whose home is a very morgue
as far as any joyous, cordial demonstration
goes. His mother, the best of women in in-
tention, outwardly would make a glacier
shiver; his father, just and honest and hon-
orable, yet so echooled in self -repression that
it has become his law. Not long ago I saw
this boy compelled to leave home for a time
on account of ill -health, bid his family good-
bye. His mother said, " You'll write us, I
suppose," and dropped a froety little kiss
upon his cheek.
His father, good man and true, with the
management of a dozen charities on his
shoulders, said " Good-bye " without even a
handshake and walked upstairs to his
study, and with that sort of a godspeed my
friend started out in mearch of health. Don't
you think that he would have started more
happily if his mother had let the love that
must surely be in her heart melt through
the ice a little. If she had said, "Goodbye,
old fellow, take care of yourself and write
me often !" and if his father had, for a mo-
ment, dropped hie self repression and said,
" Farewell, my son, are you sure you have
everything you need ? God bless you !"
don't you think he would have found health
more quickly with the memory of cordial
home words to = quickee his heart action ?
And yet, if you say tai these good people
that they do not, with ell their cultivation,
know the first letter of the alphabet of home
duty, and that they little deserve the son
they have they would look at you mith
wide -eyed -surprise, and regard you as a very
ill -regulated pereon indeed.
Do not be .o -afraid of letting yourself out
a little; do not fear that your heart will run
away with your head. Ninety out of the
hundred times the balance will be largely to
the credit of the head.
Kindly words and pleasant fussiness are
low-priced offerings to make to those we
most do love, and many a time you will be
Fled, so very- glad, that you made the offer-
ing while yet in time. Do not confound
sentiment with sentimentalism.
I have a good friend who says: " You
know my friendship is warm and strong;
why bother to put it in words or demon-
strate it by deeds ?" Very true, my dear
fellow ; I know also that the sky up yonder
is clear and blue, but if leaden, silent clouds
hang between it and me, base materialist
that I am, I long to tear away the clouds
and feast my eyes upon the blue and let the
warm sunshine clothe me roundabout; and
that is what I men when I say, "To think
may be the silent silver, but to say is the
glowing gold." -Frank Chaffee, in Ladies'
Home Journal,
Sebringville, on Wednesday, 22nd
ult., the residence of Mr. John Moore was
the scene of a very pleasant event, in which
Mr. Thnmes Rustop, son of Mr. F. Ruston,
ex -reeve of Ellice was united in matrimony
to Miss Lena Moore, daughter, of Mr.
Thomas Moore. Rev. Mr. Deacon, of
Stratford, officiated. There were upwards
of seventy couples witnessing the scene.

code of morale. "Mamma," said a young
lad whose mother reproved him for swearing,
"Papa swears." The mother quietly teok
her Bible, and opening it at the words,
"Swear not at all, ' said, "These are the
words of Christ; our duty is to obey and fol-
low Him. Let us beg papa not to sweet.
either." Of course this implied a criticism
of " Papa." but it was so gentle and so wise
that it left no feeling of disregard in the
boy's heart, but rather filled it with a
sort of pitying tenderness toward that erring
father.
But just so much aa you find fault with
each other in the presence of your children,
you weaken each other's authority.

barn on the 13th concession of Logen, be-
longing to Mr. George Court, at present
rented by Mr. D. Mahon, was bnrned down.
The surrounding neighbors did all in their
power to assist Mr. Mahon. They succeed-
ed in removing the live etock from the
stables, but the grain, hey, and other con-
tents of the barn were destroyed. It is sup-
posed to have been the work of an incendi-
aoyoes a bottle containing coal oil was found
near the barn.

digging gravel an overhenging bank of
several tons weight gave way and fell on

LECTURE. -On Monday evening of last
week a very interesting lecture bearing on
the interests of the Patrons of Industry,
was delivered in the school house of Section
No. 14 Hay, by Mr. Johnson, of Sexemith,
organizer for this district. The facts pre-
sented by the lecturer so influenced the
shrewd and clear headed farmere of the vi-
cinity as to lead to the iminediate formation
of an association, with brilliant prospects.
Those desirous of becoming members of
this organizetion will have an opportunity
of doing so on the evening of Tuesday, 11th
inst., from which date meetings will be held
every second Tuesday only, at 8 p. m. A
Literary and Debatipg Society will be an
interesting feature of these meetings.
Wonderful Events.
(From London Free Press and Advertiser.)
Certain woederful events that occur from week to
week, are recorded in our daily prose, and create
much surprise and call for comment amongst all
classes of our population. Our people are quick to
diecern grand and worthy deeds; they feel that in
sonie degree nien and women are made better, and
that notwithstanding the fact that the world is evil,
there is still something worth living and working for.
Certain newspapers have informed us of great and
mighty cures, which to one elate in particular these
reeorded events have proved a blessing, and brought
comfort and cheer to many 'deepondent hearts.
Week after week we have had proof of men and
women, old and young, who were saved from the
dark tomb through the power of a remedy that not
one paper in Canada had the generoeity to mention
the name, save the London Free Press and Adver-
tiser'situply because they were not paid for advertis-
ing this remedy. This shows a most wonderful
pecuniary principle on the part of an otherwise gen-
erous press The principle of the London papers is
to deplore sueh a state of affairs and to give fair pub-
licity to all worthy preparations. It therefore is a
pleaeure for us to give the honorable name of this
wonderful medicine known as the Royal Crown
Remedy. It scorns to be able to take hold of the
worst cases -those for whom physicians held out no
hope,who were pronounced past all earthly help. The
weak, nervous, sleepless, despondent, morose, dys-
peptic and rheumatic are given new life, and anxious
parents and relatives aro filled with joy. All this has
been accomplished by Williams' Royal Crown Rem-
edy. Sales last year alone amounting to thousands
of dollars, and It was never known to be advertised
in any paper in Ole country. This unparalleled re-
cord gives it first place in point of sales, and provesit to be the greatest medicine the world of sctence
has yet produced. The proprietors being human
benefactors and desirous that all the world may be
benefited, have remodeled the package, enlarged the
bottle, and decided to place it in every drug store
throughout the civilized world, and truly such grand
and noble works benefit us as a nation,and future gen-
erations will bless the name of the great discoverer
of the grandest remedy ever given to suffering
humanity.
DIARRHOEA AND DYSENTERY RIC perhaps the most
common of our every day ills, and every person
nearly has some special cure of their own. Ours is
PERRY Davis' Pent-lineetn, and having used it for
many years we can confidently recommend it. Get

NOW'S Notes.
-The Duches9 of Fife, eldest daughter
of the Prince of Wales, gave birth to a girl
Monday evening, 3rd inst.
-Colonel John M. Brown,`the originator
of the movement having for its object the
settling of negroes in South America, is
completing the final arrangements and
leek's for the early accomplishment Of his
purposes, He has secured the appointment
of a committee to go to Brazil for the pur-
pose of obtaining concessione from that
Government.
-The Order of Benedictine Monks, while
digging the foundation of their new monas-
tery on the Aventine hill, Rome, found an
earthen pot containing four hundred gold
medals of the second century, and struck
by the Senate and people of Rome in honor
of the conquest of Armenia by Lacing Vents.

A Divided Household.
"A house divided against itself shall not
stand." is a truth that parents should pon-
der with reference to the management of
their children. You have no more acute or
severe critic than your own children. If
husband and wife do not agree, the very
babe in her arms will be quick to discover
the fact.
A group of little girls were playing on the
sidewalk one bright summer day when one
of them, seizing the hand of her friend hasti•
lye ran around the corner. "What did you
do that for ?" eaid +he friend. "1 saw papa
coming, and he has forbidden me to play
with Susie Jones." "But your mamma
knew you were playing with her ; she is
sewing at the window, and could see you,"
"Oh, mamma lets me do as I please."
How cen a child with 'such home training
respect either parent? She will fear her
father, but she will not respect him because
she sees that her mother does not feel enough
respect for him to enforce his commands in
his absence. She will not respect her
mother because she feels in her childish
heart that her mother is wrong, and knows
that her father has a good reason for not
wishing her to play with Susie Jones.
How often we hear a child exclaim, when
forbidden by her mother to do something,
"I'll ask papa when he comes home," show-
ing plainly that oneparent does not uphold
the authority of the other.
At times a father will correct a child with
more severity of expreesion than the fault
warranted, and, painful SA is such a spee-
tacle, it is even more painful and more horn,-
ful to the child for the mother to interfere.
Talk with each other privately, if need be,
in regard to your modes of correction, but
let no word of your differences reach the
child's ear.
It often happens that a wife and mother
can not approve of her husband's course -
that she must teach her children a different

Blemished Animals.
It is really surprising how many good animals are
badly blemished througt slips or strains. In most
cases only a slight lameness exists at first, and if
Dick's Liniment were at once applied this would be
cured, but even when lumps have forrned they can be
removed with Dick's Blister. It cures Curbs,
Spavins,Ringbones and like blemishes.

GENTLEMEN, -I was troubled with dyspepsia for

before he could secure a foothold and by a
desperate effort free himself. The men
were all on the other bank at the time.
