A. Siddall, of Lucknow, took a scholarship, stand- ing second out of a total of 150 com- petitors. -Over 45,000 immigrants landed at Quebec this season, being 15,000 in ex- cess of the number for the same period last year. Fully 90 per cent. of this year's immigrants are from Great Britain. -The farm implement trade in Wes- tern Canada during the present pro- mises to exceed by a large margin that of any preceding year ; business done up to the present date was re- ported as showing an increase of from 100 to 150 per cent., compared with last year. Brussels. 180 boxes of creamery butter were sola by Brussels factory to Jus. Alex- ander, of Montreal, at 20e, It was a prime article. A certain man in town is credited with thrashing bis wife and if it oc- curs again he may find himself in an awkward box, Jas, Turnbull, formerly of Brussels, , has purchased a grocery in Listowel and will move his family from Ches- ley to that town we understand. The rink picked to go to Woodstock to play against a, quartette of English bowler's is composed of Dr, it. 1?. Field, A, B. MacDonald, It, Downing and D. 0, Ross, skip, Contractor McMillan and staff have commenced work at the new Agricul- tural Hall, They have levelled the ground, dug the trenches for the foundation and have made a start on cement building, With good weather two weeks will likely complete their department of the work. Judge Holt held Division Court here on Thursday, 5th. There was but one case heard, one being adjourned. Me- Lauehlin Bros, vs. McKay, the plain- tiffs sued for the price of a cutter. The defendant claimed $50 damages for breach of contract for not supply- ing a windmill. Judgment for plain- tiffs for $25 and costs. Defendant's counter claim was dismissed. In response to correspondence with the C. P. R. authorities by J. Leckie, of Brussels', Traffic Superintendent Savage of that road was instructed to visit Seaforth and Brussels to secure additional data relative to a short line connecting the above mentioned places with the C. P. R. at Walton, Mr. Savage's report is likely to be favorable to the plan and from what we understand of the intentions of the Co.; the work is likely to be car- ried out. It may be an electric road, standard gauge with large motor cap- able of hauling 10 freight cars, to be afterwards changed to steam. This would afford the necessary competi- tion in freight and passenger rates and give this 'section a good outlet and easy access to the Co, town and other points. Both Seaforth and Brussels have large shipping interests and the C. P. R. is wide awake in tak- ing knowledge of these. The supposi- tion is that the proposed short line would be extended to Wroxeter there- by connecting the old established C. P. R. line there with the Guelph and Goderich line, -A Provincial Commission has been appointed by the Whitney Govern- ment to revise the statutes of Ontario for publication on Jan. 1st, 1908, The Commission will consist of six judges, the members of the Executive Coun- cil and a representative of the Opposi- tion. Justice Osler will be chairman. The other representatives are, Justice Carrow, Chief Justice Meredith, Jus- tice Street, Justice Anglin and Jus- tice Teetzel, and A. G. McKay, of Owen Sound will represent the Op- position. The Legislature has voted $30,000 for the work of revision. Stratford, July 7. -Through the timely action of two girls, daughters of Dr. J. A. Dunsmore, a burglary was prevented. The girls slept to- gether, and about 2 a.m. yesterday they were awakened by a noise, and then saw a man climbing in the win- dow, which had been left open. "'-:ey screamed, but the man refuse... to leave. One of the girls then picked up a pitcher of water and threw it at the stranger. This sudden and unex- pected repulse was too touch for him, and he made a hasty retreat. He had reached the room by way of a lad- der. -When Blaine was a young lawyer, and cases were few, he was asked to defend a poverty-stricken tramp ac- cused of stealing a watch. He plead- ed with all the ardor at his command, drawing so pathetic a picture with such convincing energy that at the close of his argument the court was in tears, and even the tramp wept. The jury deliberated but a- few minutes, and returned the verdict, "Not guil- ty." Then the tramp drew himself up, tears streaming down his face as he looked at his lawyer, and said :- "Sir, I never heard so grand a plea. I have not cried before since I was a child. I have no money with which to reward you, but (drawing a pack- age from the depths of his ragged clothes) here's that watch ; take it and welcotne." -Mr. Justice Mabee has quashed the local option by-law passed in Owen Sound on January lst. He finds that there were irregularities, and infers that in appointing deputy returning officers and poll clerks no care was taken to engage experienced men. In one polling booth, for instance, no re- cord was kept in the poll book of the votes cast, though the usual certificate was signed. Mr. Justice Mabee refers to the proclamation issued by the Town Clerk, warning voters on pain of penalty from voting in more than one ward, and decided that a voter was entitled to as many votes as wards in which he qualified. His Lordship recalls, too, that the Clerk favored the by-law. The proclamation, indeed, constituted a threat against the rate- payers. The judgment says that per• sons voted for the by-law who had no right to vote; that others, entitled to more votes than one, were confined to one, and, consequently, the original majority in favor would be reduced, if not removed, There were two by laws, but the colors of the ballots were so alike, that confusion hail re- sulted, a banker and a clergyman be- ing ainong those misled, The Town Council has appealed the ease and ask- ed the Government that no licenses be issued at present pending the hear- ing of the appeal. The Government hu granted the request. = Dead Sick Of Asthma ? You couldn't be otherwise with such a distressing malady. Well, for one dollar spent on "Catarrhozone" you can be thoroughly cured. Foolish to delay, because asthma steadily grows worse. Get Catarrhozone to- day and euro yourself ; it's pleasant to use, very simple, and guaranteed. Prescribed by thousands of doctors and used by the people of nine nations -Certainly Catarrhozone must be good ; it hasn't failed yet, no matter how chronic the case. PROVINCIAL LOAN OF $3,000,000.

The Customs Collections at the port of Clinton, for the year ending June 30th, amounted to $17,779.35. Rev. J. S. Fisher, formerly at Blyth and Holmesville, after forty years of active work in the ministry of the Methodist church, has superannuated. For the six months ending June 30, these were recorded with Mr. Mac- pherson, the Division Registrar, 20 births, 8 marriages and 17 deaths. Rev. W. J. Jolliffe, the new pastor of Wesley church, occupied the pulpit on Sunday and created a very favor- able impression. While the volunteers were in camp at London, No, 4 Company, Clinton (H, )3. Combe, Capt.) made the highest score in the 33rd Battalion in the Laborn shooting competition, get- ting 892 points. Mr. Jno. A. Cooper, Toronto, broth- er of Mr. A. T. Cooper, town, has been appointed by the Ontario Gov- ernment a member of the commission to enquire into the cost of school text books. Ontario mechanics who went to the Northwest expecting to get big wages are returning disgusted with the pros- pects there. They say the labor mar- ket is greatly congested.; wages low and board high. They advise no one to go unless they have secured a job ahead. For people of some means or for those who purpose homesteading the Northwest is all right. The coun- try, however, is over -run with land sharks, speculators, and dishonest government officials ready to prey up- on the unwary. Radiant Womanhood. The glory and satisfaction of beauti- ful womanhood can be known only to those possessing the unlimited nd- vantages of health. No weak woman can be happy or enjoy half the plea- sures of hfe. Pallid cheeks, sunken eyes, exhausted nerves, all tell of a terrible struggle to keep up. What the weak woman needs is Ferrozone; it renews, restores and vitalizes in- stantly -it's a "woman's remedy," - that's why. Ferrozone makes women strong, plump and healthful because it con- tains lots of nutriment, the kind that fortes muscle, sinew, bone and nerve. 'Vitalizing blood courses through the body, snaking delightful color, happy spirits, true womanly rtrenglh. ty cents buys a box of Ferrozone in any drug store. 'A' The well known druggist, A. L.
