From the Comber Herald. Strangtield is a post office corner about six mites from Comber. It was named after the highly respected and well known family of Strings. The neighborhood is a quiet one, being in- lta(bltedbya church -going, sober, indus- trious people. Among t he people of that neighborhood none is better or more fayorably known than Mr. Thos. Strang. Mr. Strang is it Man of mid- dle ageancl a bachelor. A fewdaysago he related to the Herald thestory of his recovery from an illness which he be- lieves would llltve resulted fatally hitt for the use of Dr. William's' Pink fills. The origin of Mr. Straug's trouble was la grippe which developed into heart t disease. 110 laid for months with every nerve in his frail body unstrung. Re tried Many medicines, but none seemed to materially benefit hon. Ile would rally at litres and endeavor to walk, but his system being reduced and weakened he would frequently fall prostrate to the ground, and his friends had to carry hint into the house. This terrible state of things lasted for months and all the while he wits get- ting weaker, and even the most hope- ful of his friends feaed the worst. Mr. Strang was strongly urged to try the world renowned Dr. Williams' fink Pills and consented to du so. A neigh - nut' was dispatched to the Comber dreg store fur a supply. In a few days after beginning their use he began to im- prove. In a( couple of weeks he was able to walk around, and to -day Mr. Strang is rejoicing and telling the same old story that hundreds of others are telling in this fair Dominion -the story of renewed steelier through the use of Dr. Williams' fink Pills. Mr. Strang is now a sound man. Quite frequently he walks to Comber, a dis- tance Of six miles, to attend church. Re informed the Herald Olathe was only too glad to give his experience so that suffering humanity treaty also trap ;he benefit atnd thus he released from the thraldom of disease and pain. '1'o his benefactors -for such they Bre--Mr. Strang feels that he owes a debt cit gratitude. With him the days when agony stood on its brow have paused away, and his body has been regener- ated anew by the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. The after effects of la grippe and all troubles due to poor blood or shattered nerves, speedily yield to a fltfr treat- ment with DO. Williams' Pink Pills. They euro when Other medicines fail, and no one should suffer for an hour without giving this great remedy at trial.

Last autumn the lowest price paid for ()uteri() wheat at west- ern points was 47c. To -day sales could be made at 70c. This shows an ad- vance of 2:3e front lowest point. At present values are sit high as t(1 almost admit of importation from the United States to some points in Canada. The freight front Chicago to Kingston is 3c. Cash wheat is quoted in ('hkago at. 550. or, with duty of 15e per bushel and freight added, 73c laid down at King- ston. The freight. from Guelph to Kingst (!n is about '3c. It follows that if wheat were purchased at Guelph for shipment to Kingston that the cost laid down w0111(1 Ile equal to that of wheat brought front Chicago. THE KIND Or OATS MILLERS REQUIRE. The following circular is t he outcome of the meeting of the Oatmeal Millers of Ontario, held at Toronto recently, to consider the hest means for secur- ing suitable oats for milling and of im- proved quality. TO snake a first-class article of trolled oats it is necessary to have oats of the same size and shape, and experience haus shown that a long thin hulled, plump grain is the most suitable. The consumption of rolled oats is rapidly increasing in Canada. and a limited quantity is being sent to Great, Britain, Germany, Denmark and other nations in Europe. and it is the desire and purpose of Canadian oat- meal millers to largely increase the export trade with these countries, and with 41181 object in view alley now ask the c0-operletunl of farmers and grain dealers. Fal'iIII'r. can materially in- crease the whole value of the tart crop 'in Canada by giving careful attention to securing the petit, varieties of well -- cleaned seed that will he suitable for moment twilling. '1'11e varieties now in general 1181. hest,' adapted far• trilling are t rmlpreved Alnerivan Banner and Australian or white Russian, but any variety will do that, will yield well and is at long, plump and thin -hulled white grain. Grain dealers, by keep- ing separate the thick and thin hulled varieties, will obtain from millers a higher price for the latter. III' PFA LO MARK R.T.
