Shortreed on Wed- nesday evening of last week, when her adopted daughter, Miss Elizabeth Ellen Richardson, became the wife of ATr. Jno. Craning, of Morris, sou of Mr. and Mrs. Cunning, of Blyth. The Epworth League entertained the members of the Londesboro League last Tuesday evening. Miss Bielby, president of the social com- mittee, presided over the sheeting. There was a good musical and literary program, followed by refreshments. A young man named Frank Shan- non, and who claims Goderieh as his home, arrived in Blyth one day last week, and being without food and money was kindly looked after by Mr. A.

Con- stable Long took the gent to Gode- rich on Sunday where he was inform- ed by Constable Gundry that Reid was wanted in Ashfield for appro- priating a robe. Such light fingered gentry should be put where the dogs wont get them. The stealing was done on the day of Mrs. D. Ferguson's funeral at Brussels when the oc- cupants of the homes visited by the thief were attending the funeral. ABOUT LOCAL OPTION. TO EDITOR OP ADVANCE :— Owing to Local Option carrying in East Wawanosh, the Whitechurch hotel was to lose its license on May 1st, but Mr. Emil, who occupied the house, decided to shut up shop some time ago. As a result, travellers are billeted around on the different citi- zens. While we deplore the ravages of the liquor trade and would like nothing better than to see it entirely stamped out of the country, still we think that the travelling public and private citizens should not be incon- venienced to the extent above indicat- ed, and we think that the temperance party should not stop at what they have accomplished, but should now grapple with the other side of the pro- blem. As the writer is for the cause of temperance, he would like to make a suggestion for what it is worth. It is—that the temperance people, who have been instrumental in closing up any hotel and thereby inconvenienc- ing the travelling public, organize and purchase the building or other suita- ble one, and provide for the said tra- vellers, and if this is not profitable as would likely be the case in White- church, to try and connect some other business with it, and we feel sure that in a short time matters would adjust themselves to the new order of things. We would further suggest, that the gentlemen who operated the Local Option campaign, should head the above mentioned organization. It is a common saying among the liquor element, that the temperance people are willing to vote anything so long as their own pockets are not affected, and we think that there is a good op- portunity to prove the fallacy of this statement. In conclusion, we would call on the temperance people to prove themselves valiant for truth. OBSERVER, .1, The Tonic Of Health. Must be more than an stimulant— must be a food as well. There is one medicine that is both a food and a tonic, ---it aids digestion, promotes as- similation, converts food into nutri- ment that builds up nerves, blood, brain and bone. That tonic is Ferro - zone which contains exactly what a run-down system needs. Ferrozone supplies oxygen to purify the blood, phosphorous to develop the brain, Iron to harden the muscles. No won- der it makes such vigorous men and women. You'll eat, sleep, think and feel better by using Ferrozone; try it now.

McCrae had four sheep wor- ried by dogs on Sunday afternoon, two of them having been killed out- right and the other two left in a help- less condition. It is certainly too bad that so many farmers should corse to such a loss by useless dogs prowling around: When the East Wawanosh Agri- cultural Society ceased holding fairs at Belgrave some few years ago, the retained membership money was paid back to the members, but there still remained in the treasury some $90. One evening last week the committee met and decided to divide the money equally to the three Sunday Schools at Belgrave. This was a very good move on the part of the committee as all parties in the community will re- ceive a benefit. DIED.—I!s Belgrave, on March 10th, Mrs. Jas. B. Stretton, aged 37 years and four months. Mrs. Stretton's maiden name was Emily Clark. She was born on lot 15, con. 6, Morris township, near the Town Hall. Her father, Thos. Clark, was one of the .pioneers of Morris. She leaves behind to mourn her loss, a husband, two sons, an aged mother, three sisters and one brother. Her sisters are— Mrs. Thynne and Mrs. B. Geddes of the 3rd line of Morris, and Mrs. Thos. Forbes of Wingham. Although a great sufferer for nearly a year, de- ceased was never heard to murmur but bore her suffering with Christian fortitude, patiently waiting for the Master's call. She was a member of Belgrave English Church. During her illness, she was frequently visited by the Methodist and Presbyterian minis- ters of Belgrave, and by Rev.siartley of Blyth, to whom she expressed con- fidence of a bright future in the here- after. The funeral took place on Sun- day afternoon. A short service was held at the home by Rev. J. J. Hastie, after which the remains were taken to St. John's church, Brussels, where service was conducted by Rev. Mr. LangFord, and interment took place in Brussels cemetery. The large con- course of friends which followed the remains to the grave, testified to the esteem in which the deceased was held, 1: St. Helens. It is not given to many to celebrate their diamond wedding, but this for- tune has fallen to Mr. and Mrs. Hugh Anderson, of St. Helens, who with friends and acquaintances celebrated the 00th anniversary of their marriage at the residence of Mr. Thos. Todd, of St. Helens, A short program was provided, then followed a speech by Rev, Mr. Craw, and then the friends joined in singing Auld Lang Syne. The address was read by Rev. Mr. Craw, who was chairman. Mr. and Mrs, Anderson were presented with a lovely Morris chair and 11 dozen large photos of themselves, one being in a large frame. Speeches were made by Mr. Ramage, Mr, Tom, Mr. Clark, Mr. Murray and Mr, Philips, a few old Scotch songs were sung by all joining hands. Those who contribut- ed songs were Mr. McGregor, Rev. Mr. Craw, Mr. Maice and Miss Ella Taylor. A dainty lunch was served. The program closed by singing God Save the Ring, .rs TI -IE WINGAM ADVANCE --- THURSDAY, MARCH 22, 1906 Wroxeter. Geo.

Mr. Appleby, •of the village, took up Mr. Osterhout's work on Sunday.

Mr. and Mrs. Robt. Black were call- ed to London last week, on account of the very serious illness of Mr. M. McLennan, who has been an invalid for some tine.- We regret, that when Mr. Black returned on Monday, there was no improvement, and but slight hopes were entertained for his re- covery. The concert, which was to take place this week in aid of the funds of the Public Library, has been post- poned, as the Municipal Council de- clined to snake any reduction in the usual charge of the Town Hall. Sure- ly in this, the council was wrong, as the hall was erected for the benefit of the villagers, and what could benefit them more than a good Public Library. Belmore. Miss Enna Edwards spent Sunday at her hone in our village. Mr. Chas. Adams, who has been very unwell for some time, is slowly recovering. Mr. Jos. Hall has sold his farm on the B line, to Mr. Johann.

Chisholrn, M.A., Public School Inspector for West Bruce, paid our school a visit last week, and re- ports that satisfactory progress is be- ing made in all departments. One of our enterprising bachelors arranged for a surprise party some time ago. His plans seem to have failed, however, for the party did not take place. Anyway he has the con- solation that the surprise was mutual. The social held at the home of Mr. Edwin Lucaas on Tuesday night of last week, was a decided success. A pro - grans consisting of reading, vocal and instrumental music was enjoyed by all. The remainder of the evening was spent in playing games. The pro- ceeds amounted to $10. Bluevale.

Jas, Holden, hostler at the Queen's hotel, died rather suddenly last week and was buried on Friday in the Brus- sels cemetery. He was packing away ice and drank freely of cold water, which brought on his sickness. He was a man nntch respected, steady and trusty, and well thought of, We hear of complaints being made by the farmers' wives living near Brussels that the Brussels merchants aro not paying as much for butter and eggs, etc., as at other places, such as Walton, Jaarnestown, Crauhrook and Belgrave. They say that the town is regulated by. ONE afAN, If this be true, the merchants are standing in their own light, for it is not good for thein, nor for Brussels. The funeral of the late Mrs. Janes Stretton of Belgrave took plaice last Sabbath afternoon, Her remains were brought to the English church and the impressive service of the Church was performed by the rector, Rev.
