in that it comes just at harvest time.
The Hensall Observer of last week
says: "An unusual event took place
on Sunday last at the home of Mr.
and Mrs. Otterbein when grandma
Otterbein celebrated her 06th birth-
day. She was visited by her son,
grandson, and great grandson, from
Dashwood and Kitchener, and many
friends from Zurich, where she re-
sided for many years. She was al-
so the recipient of many little gifts
from kind neighbors. We are pleas-
ed to state that the old lady is still
well and hearty, able to attend to
her own flower garden and tomato
vines, which are her speciality, and
she is also very fond of reading,
which she does without the aid of
glasses."
—O Wednesday afternoon of last
week while Miss Hettie Sweet, of
Exe r, was driving to Grand Bend
in er Ford car, accompanied by her
mo er, Mrs. S. Atkinson, and Miss
E. Bowey, she had the misfortune
e upset in the ditch, but luckily
no ne was hurt beyond a few bruis-
es. They were on the Lake Road a
shot distance from the lake when
they were crowded off the road by
one of Silverwood's large trucks
from London. Miss Sweet had her
car under control and had practically
stopped when the car upset, or else
the results might have been far
worse. There was some damage to
the car and Messrs. Pilon & Foote
went out and brought it in. Friends
took the party on to the Bend for the
day.

That awful agony of toothache.
It now develops that toothache is
always due to the effect, direct or
indirect, of decay, and that this
decay results from the operation of
one or two forms of bacillus of which
both have been fully isolated.
'It is an interesting fact that the
funds for the investigation which has
apparently had this epochal result
were furnished by the same man
who financed the South Polar jour-

other germs of the same species, but
many of different varieties rush, so
to speak, into the breach and take
up the disastrous work within.
Their operations cause inflame

on the nerves and the horrors of
aching teeth.
The organisms involved are said
to be present in practically and per-
haps absolutely every human mouth,
the intimation being that no one
can escape some tooth decay until a
means of fighting them has been dis-
covered.
The fact that it is thought that
the task of finding some means of
combatting them will be easy will be
welcomed as good news.
The bacilli have not yet been
named, but soon will be, of course.
One of them is long, thin, very speedy

extraordinary hardness of the sub-

TOO LITTLE BLOOD
e (Cause of Nearly All Every -
Day Ailments of Life.
Too little blood is what makes peo-
ple look pale and sallow and feel lan-
guid. That is what makes them drag
along, always tired, never real hun-
gry, unable to digest their food,
breathless after slight exertion, so
that it is wearisome even to go up
stairs. Doctors tell them they are
anaemic—the plain English being too
little blood. If you do not relish
your meals, if you are easily tired
and frequently despondent, and small
matters irritate you, it is a sign that
your blood is thin and watery, and
that you are on the verge of a break-
down.
More weak, anaemic people have
been made strong, energetic and
cheerful by taking Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills than by any other means. These
pills enrich and renew the blood,
which reaches every part of the body,
strengthens the nerves, and brings
new health and vitality. Miss Doro-
thy M. Ellis, Davidson, Sask., says:
"I have found great benefit through
the,use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. I
was weak and run down and seemed
to have no ambition, but after taking
the pills felt restored. I shall be glad
to recommend them to any sufferer."
If you are suffering from any con-
dition due to poor, watery blood or
weak nerves, begin taking Dr. Wil-
liams' Pink Pills now, and note how
your health and strength will im-
prove. You can get these pills through
any dealer in medicine, or they will

In a short article it is not possible
even to describe the commonest ed-
ible varieties such as Fairy Ring
(Marasmius oreades), Shaggy Mane
(Coprinus eomatus), Inky Cap (Cop-
rinus atramentarius) and the ordin-
ary field mushroom (Agaricus
campestris). The two following dead-
ly poisonous ones are described, and
should be thoroughly known before
anyone ever takes to eating wild
mushrooms.
The Fly Agaric (Amanita mus-
caria).—This is a very conspicuous
mushroom, not resembling any other
variety in the whole range of mush-
rooms. The cap is large, from 4 to
ti inches, rounded at first, then near-
ly plane; surface, when fresh, slight-
ly viscid. Its color is subject to
great variations, ranging from or-
ange -red, to yellow or almost white,
the yellow color being more comman.
The margin of cap in mature plants
is marked with radiating lines or
markings. The surface is covered
with thick, angular, persistent scales,
and easily removed; flesh white. The
gills are free, but reaching the stem.
Color white rarely becoming yellow.
Stem 4 to 8 inches long, shining white
or pale yellowish, becoming hollow,
enlarged at the base into a conspicu-
ous bulb, marked by prominent, con-
centric, irregular rings. There is a
ring or collar on the stem, very soft,
large, white. The Fly Amanita is
easily identified on account of its
scaly cap, briliantly colored; large
ring, and bulbous ringed base. It
occurs along roadsides, wood margins
and open woods, generally from June
till frost.
The other deadly plant, Amanita
phalloides, or Death cup, is three to
four inches broad, commonly shin-
ing white or yellowish, but may be
grey or brown, olive to umber. It
is viscid when moist, smooth, oval,
and finally extended the margin is
even, not marked; flesh white, not
objectionable to taste, gills free from
stem, largest at the middle, white.
The stem is 3 to 5 inches long, gen-
erally hollow, white. The base of the
stem is inserted in a semi -free white
cup -shaped covering called a volva.
It is of common (recurrence from
July to October, in woods, groves,
and along borders of woods. It re-
sembles somewhat the commrm field
mushroom the dark colored gills and
the absence of the cup at the base of
the stem. A Pholloides is the most
dangerous of all fungi and is re-
sponsible for most ref the deaths re-
sulting from eating mushrooms. Ten
to fifteen hours may elapse before
symptoms of poisoning may appear.
No antidote has been found. A safe
rule is to avoid eating all mushrooms
having white gills, a ring eon the
stem, and a valveatthe base'of the
stem, combined in the same plaint.
EDIBLE AND POISONOUS
MUSHROOMS
Mushrooms and toadstools are in-
cluded under the collective term
"fungi." There is a widespread mis-
apprehension concerning the charac•
ter of the fleshy fungi. The public
generally classify them under two
main divisions—toadstools and mush-
rooms—the latter only being consid-
ered edible, and embracing the sev-
eral varieties of the mushroom com-
monly exposed for sale, and found in
fields during the late summer and
fall. All varieties outside of these
are popularly culled toadstools and
avoided as being poisonous. The
question is frequently asked how can
one distinguish a "mushroom" from
a "toadstool." There are hundreds
of kinds of mushrooms most of which
are edible, and but a few are poison-
ous. It is then a question how to
distinguish the edible from the pois-
(naus species. All so-called "tests"
such as peeling, discoloration of a
spoon, etc., etc., are mythical, and
afford no guarantee. The hest meth-
od of knowing them is to study their
characteristics one by one, starting
with a common variety; have this
identified by one who knows it, and
then enntinue one's studies as oppor-
tunity offers. It is strongly advised
to leave severely alone all kinds a-
bout which there is any uncertainty.
Many mushrooms are nauseating to
some persons but prove harmless to
others, while many are edible but of
