Miss Hyndman had not enjoyed the best of health for a number of years, but she was able to be around up to a couple of days of her demise, when sudden ly she was taker down with heart trot" HURON N9TES ble and the end came rapidly. The depeased was born in Exeter fifty - .—Mr. William Correy, of Auburn, seven years ago and was a daughter of the late Dr. John Hyndman, and her whole life has been spent there. She was a member of the Trivitt Memorial Church, taking a . deep in- terest in all church work, and was ever faithful in her attendance at divine worship. Miss Hyndman was mach esteemed b a large circle of friends, and her sudden taking off will be a source of much deep regret by all. —A native of Goderich Township Township has passed to his reward in the person of Henry Perdue, who died in St. Joseph's Hospital, London, on Monday, August 18th. Mr. Perdue was born in Goderich Township in 1851. He lived there until twelve years ago, when hewent to Fort Wil- liam and remained for a time with his son, Thomas. He returned from the' West three years ago, and until his last illness necessitated his re- moval to St. Joseph's Hospital at London he had resided at Komoka with his daughter, Mrs. Harrison. Mrs. Perdue, who was Miss Charlotte Young, of Goderich township, died thirty-one years ago. A family of four children survive: Clara and Frances, both of Vancouver; Mrs. Harrison, of Komoka, and Thomas, of Fort William. The funeral took place last Thursday afternoon. Interment was made in Clinton cemetery. —During the electrical storm on Saturday afternoon of last week, Mr. McClinchey's barn, near Auburn, was struck and }turned to the ground. The season's crop of hay and grain and about 400 bushels of old grain were destroyed. Mr, McClinchey had just put the teams in the stable and had gone to the house, until the shower passed over, when he noticed flames shooting through the roof. With con- siderable difficulty the horses and a number of pigs were got out of the stable. By that time the fire had gained • such headway that nothing further could be done. By this time a number of the neighbors had 'gath- ered, and with their help the poultry house and implement shed were sav- ed; but had these buildings been cov- ered with shingles in place of period roofing they, too, would have been a complete loss. The loss is only partially covered by insurance. We understand Mr. McClinchey intends to erect a new frame barn as soon as possible. —The death occurred Wednesday morning of last week of Mrs. S. Lowrey, a lady who had spent nearly her entire life in Clinton'vicihity, at the advanced age of eighty-seven years. .Mrs. Lowrey, who was a daughter of the late Henry Beacom, was born in Ireland but was brought to this country when about a year old,. in 1837. The family settled in the Summerhill neighborhood and there for many years continued to re- side. Growing to womanhood, the subject of this sketch was united in marriage with the late Samuel Low- rey and they settled on the lath con, cession of Goderich Township, where they reared their family of four chil- dren; three sons and one daughter, only two of who, Chris. Lowrey, of Penticton, B. C., and J. Hy. Lowrey, of North Bay, survive. Twenty years ago Mr. Lowrey passed away and a- bout eight years ago Mrs. Lowrey moved into Clinton. "met with a very painful accident on Friday of last week. He had been mowing away some grain and was in the act of leaving the mow when he lost his balance and fell to the -drive 'floor, landing on his back. Although no bones were broken, Mr. Correy was badly bruised and shaken up. —Mr. Everett Betts, who establish - ,ed the bakery and confectionery in •'Carling's old block, Exeter, ,over a year ago, last week sold the business to Mr. F. H. Kehler, of. Stratford, who took immediate possession. Mr. Betts has enjoyed a large and liberal patronage during his stay here, and Ise succeeded in working up a splen- did business. —A narrow escape from a serious accident occurred at the level cross- ing of the Canadian National Rail- -way one and a quarter miles north of Blyth. As the 3:40 express train was coming from the north, John Evans, 'of Brussels, was corrin along.jn his :auto when -he struck the train, with the result that his car was badly damaged. Strange to say, Evans esu .caped uninjured. —The Voters' Lists for the V,lage of Exeter have been completed and are now in the hands of the Clerk. 'The total number of voters on the list is 1,005.

Mr. Cantelon was a native of the township and had spent his entire life .there. He was of a genial, social Nature and was held in high esteem ley all who knew him. He was also the picture of health, and his sudden demise comes as a shock to everyone. Be is survived by his wife and one "laughter, ,Mrs. C. E. Wise, also of Goderich Township."' —The U. F. 0. and U. F. W. 0. Clubs of Lochalsh, Laurier and Kin,. tail, held their annual picnic recently to McKenzie's Park, Kintail., The teathering' heard a short address by J. W. King, M.P., North Huron, and J. J. Morrison, U. F. 0. Secretary, and had just nicely got under way with his speech when a heavy rain - Storm began. Mr. Morrison took shelter with the others, remarking that the shower would do the district a great deal more good than his ad - areas. The scheduled. tug-of-war be- tween Ashfield and Wawanosh coun- cils had to be cancelled. —The death occurred on Saturday afternoon, of Burleton Wilfred Jones - Bateman, elder son of Rev.

The dose of carbon bisulphide for an adult horse is from two to four drachma (one-quarter to half an ounce). If favorable results are seen in the re- moval of a number of hots, the treat- ment should be repeated in two or three days, as it is seldom that one treatment is sufficient. The preventive measures suggested are: clipping the long hairs from the knee down; coating the legs with some greasy or tarry substance that will repel flies; washing off the legs with a solution of hot water and car- bolie soap, or protecting the legs during fly time by bandages or other means. to keep up their appearance.

E, UMBACH, Druggist, Seafortk, UNCLE SAM FROWNS ON CUBAN LorrignEB General Crowder, American envoy to Cuba, has been summoned to Wash- ington to discuss the Cuban lottery guestion. Washington is said to re- gard the lottery as. a violation of the economic pact between Cuba and the United States. Cuba regards it as one of its most cherished institu- tions. Not only is it approved by practically all, Cubans, but it consti- tutes a most important source of government revenue. To abolish it as the United States desires, would be to deprive the government of sev- eral millions of dollars a year. It is true that these millions would re- main in the pockets of the Cubans, but it does not follow that they would as cheerfully contribute them for the purpose of running the country if the lottery were not the bait" More- over to end the lottery would be to deprive whatever government is in office of its chief political machine. The persons licensed to sell tickets, who are called the colectorias, con- stitute the most influential political element in the population. They have patronage to distribute"; they have money to contribute to the political funds. They are always the friends of the government in power which appoints them, and robbed of this organization Cuban politicians would be at sea. It is commonly said that gambling is inherent in the Latin races, but perhaps it does not differentiate them from other races. The Cubans have always gambled, but what dis- tinguishes them from most other peoples is the fact that they love a sheer gamble with no other ele- ment than that of chance deciding the matter. More virtuous peoples have decided that gambling in itself is a sin and is only to be tolerated if some element of skill or calcula- tion or strength attends it. That is why they regard lotteries with• horror, and this is why, though there was a tremendous agitation for a national lottery carried on by Hor- atio Bottomley, the English gov- ernment rejected it, Bottomley argued that there was still a great hoard of riches in England remain- ing after the greatest of war efforts had been made in the matter of raising money, and that it could be lured forth by a sheer gamble. He may have been right in his facts, but his morality was voted wrong. The United States government casts a similar vote with regard to Cuba, and Cuba demands that the United States mind its own business. When there was an American Military Governor in Cuba, he sup- pressed the lottery and under Presi- dent Palma and during the second American intervention there was no lottery. The Cubans had borne with some resemblance of fortitude, the suppression of the public bull ring, but they fretted under the anti - lottery restrictions. It became a political issue. and in 1309 Miguel Gomez was elected. He ran his campaign on two chief planks, one of them being the restoration of the. lottery. ` He fulfilled his promise and the lottery has been running ever BOTS iN HORSES The Veterinary Director -General of 'the Dominion Department of Agri- culture, contributes an interesting and valuable article on "Bots in Houses" to the June. number of the Bulletin of Agricultural Statistics. After explaining that rarely is a horse's stomach opened that hots are not found attached to the mucous membrane, and that very rarely are they revealed in sufficient numbers to cause death, the life history of these parasites is outlined. The ma- ture parasite, a fly somewhat re- sembling a house fly on a large scale, deposits eggs upon the hairs of the horse's legs. During the summer time, when horses are at pasture or where the fly can reach them, it is quite commons to attached totlleiewhite i e dote (the egg) g a ;MOI{," Ago -can be haul a oath,.

The President vetoed the ;>jlil but it was sent back by overiernelming ma- jorltles. It is said .#iIti there are now 500 of his re 'lives in these posts which are worth for a four- year term nearly 0,000,000. He appointed his son asslatant director, and his uncle chief director. The whole thing was run -by the Zayas family. There were revived old stories of graft. The Cubans be- lieve that there is graft in the con- duct of the lottery, batt they refuse to become excited abdut it. Never- theless, Zayas' energies forced an enquiry which resulted in numerous indictments, but not in prison terms, so far as we are aware, the guilty persons being too highly placed. The chief graft is supposed to consist, in handing out winning tickets should they happen to be drawn from among unsold numbers, which must occa- sionally happen, since all the tickets are never sold. As regards the drawing them- selves, they are dramatically and pathetically free from any kind of crookedness. Three times a month these important events take place and are of more interest to the Cubans than the running of the Derby to the English people or the World Series to the Americans. They are made in public before the. eyes of all the people in Havana who can crowd into the Treasury Department. There is. a large glass sphere which contains balls about the size of marbles, each with a number upon it. To this globe are led little blindfolded orphans. They thrust in their hands and withdraw a ball. The number is read and the news flashes through the crowd, later to be telegraphed to all the agencies in Cuba and to appear as. the most important news of the day in the papers. Somebody becomes independent for life if he held a whole ticket, or if he" held only a part of a ticket he is enriched to the extent of some thousands of dollars, which to most Cubans is a compe- tence. Those who do not win buy tickets for the next drawing and live in hope and expectation for another. ten days.

A HANDY LOTION Horses are liable to become wound- ed from barbed wire, nail or silver. Wounds from kicking are also com- mon, when the animals are at free- dom in the pastures. Other animals are also wounded now and then and therefore require treatment. For this purpose and for application to shallow wounds or galls caused by harness the owner will find the old-fashioned "white lotion" an admirable preparation and he can make it himself. It is composed of one ounce of acetate of lead, six drams of sulphate of zinc and one pint of soft water. The drugs mentioned do not perfectly dissolve so that a heavy sediment or precipitate forms on standing: therefore, shake the mixture well each time before use. Label the bot- tle "poison" and set it out of the reach of children. The formula given here is for the full strength lotion. A weaker one, for freer ap- plication to superfical wounds, sore necks and Sore shoulders may be composed of one onnco of sulphate of zinc, ten drams of acetate of lead and one quart. of soft. water. The lotion last prescribed is also poison and requires shaking before ap- plication. Both lotions 'are to be applied three or four times daily by sprinkling upon the wound. The scab formed by use of the lotion should not be removed. Healing goes or( below the scab. Mitch washing of a wound simply causes irritation and retards healing. The celebrated "carrot oil." so effective for application to burns, is composed of equal quantities of limewater and raw linseed al. The old fashioned "black oil," still popular with many stockmen, is made by mixing to- gether two ounces of oil of turpen- tine, six drams of dilute sulphuric acid and one pint of raw linseed oily then leaving the bottle uncorked un- til the heat generated by the acid • subsides. t .t sJa4 F ss- Paps sad Olive Oils —#o/Hist sire -gips A'alsn'• rens cola Palr.lice Sop 4t satodth f.`iOlti a clean skininii bcapufiers.—buts$st4,Rt'>f foundatips.
