White, who has a pasture farm near Montague, east of Smith's Falls,. has a curiosity in a lamb with. six well -formed Legs. He bas taken especial care of it, nncl the lamb is the largest in the flock. -Among the American cities Bos- ton leads with 50,282 Canadians Chi- cago is second with 31,779 ; and then follows Detroit with 28,941, Fall River with 22,501, New York with 21,920, Lowell with 19,159, and Buffalo with 17,242. - There are more than 50,000 blind persons in the United States. Ac- cording to Dr. Park Lewis, two-fifths of all existing blindness might have been avoided had proper preventive measures or curative remedies been suitably employed. -Lake Winnipeg is now depleted of white -fish, the result of the commer- cial onslaught of the past dozen years. Even the fishing combine is with- drawing its tugs. Soon all the lakes, which once teemed with this valuable food fish, will have seen the last of thein. • - According to the Chicago Tribune the number of homicides and deaths by violence in the United States in 1005 was 9,212 as against 8,482 in 1904. Suicides 9,082, as against 9,240 in 1904. Killed on team railroads in 1905, 3,142; injured, 15,904 ; killed on electric and elevated railroads, 434 ; injured, 2,622. -X despatch from Helena, Mont., says that the largest individual wool clip ever grown on the American con- tinent was shipped from Billings, Montana, to.a, Boston wool flrm. The clip weighed. 1,500,000 pounds, and 44 cars were required to carry it. The owner refused an offer of 24c a pound for the wool. -A London township farmer nam- ed Manning was brought into the of- fice of Dr. Hugh Stevenson, London, with a sewing needle stuck in his throat. The needle had been dropped accidentally in some apple sauce, of which Manning partook; With the aid of the X-ray it was found imbed- ded well down in the throat, but with much clifflculty was extracted. -Grain has been harvested in fine condition in most of the western counties of Ontario, and the crop is from fair to good. Oats in some parts were short, owing to the dry weather. Barley and wheat have been fully up to the average, and are yielding well. Pastures in Simcoe and Grey have dried up. Those farmers who grew corn largely have benefitted greatly during this season. - Eben James, of the Union Station, Toronto, who has just returned from a trip to Rochester, says that the crop of apples there is very large. The On- tario crop is now estimated at (35 per cent., which is lower than last year, and prices will rule very well for win- ter apples. At the convention of Ap- ple Growers, recently meeting in St. Louis, U. S. A., the estimate for the crop in the United States this year is 56,000,000 barrels, which is eight or ten. millions . above the average yield. - For a child who is affected with eczema you will find nothing more soothing and harmless than this cos- metic jelly, which is inexpensive and inost easily made. Seven ounces of rose water and thirty grains of gum tragacanth ; let soak over night, strain forcibly through fine muslin and add one-half ounce of alcohol, one-half Ounce of glycerine, and a pinch of boric acid. This may be applied to the entire body of the child, and when the skiu is rough or the little face smarting from the wind it will be found the greatest comfort. You can rise it yourself, too, to keep your hands from chapping. --The drilling of new oil wells in Tilbury continued, there being now 31 complete outfits in operation. Sotno of the wells ate reported to be yield- ing 100 barrels of oil daily. Although oil is of far more value than gas the latter when produced in great quanti- ties is valuable, one of the wells in Til- bury field has 400 lbs, of rock pressure and raised 80 lbs of gas in 60 seconds, which tested with a mercury gauge, ran 900,000 feet of gas in a day. An- other well of the same company, was open for 60 days, and produced 1,000,- 000 feet of gas in a day. The total production of this company is 2,500,- 000 feet of gas. Other companies in the field also reported plenty of gas. Chatham only uses 21,000,000 feet of gas per annum, while the wells of these companies at the present time are producing at the rate of 700,000,- 000 feet per annum. Stomach Medicine Is Useless. Impossible to 'cure catarrh in the nose by dosing the stomach. Send the healing vapor of Catarrltozone after the germs and yon will at once accomplish good, Any ease of catar- rh is curable, all that's necessary is to inhale Caatarrhozone---you stop hawk- ing, nostrils at'e cleared, throat is healed and freed of phlegm; every vestige of the trouble is forever driven from the system. If you want per- manent cure for catarrh, throat trou- ble or bronchitis, Catarrlsozone is a stand-by. Two sizes, 2.5e and $1,00 at all dealers. Clinton. The egg business, always .brisk in the spring, is falling 'Ott considerably now, A carload of lambs went through here to Buffalo on Wednesday, loaded at Belgrave ; such a shipment is un- usual, owing to the fact that lambs aro scarce, Home idea of the ilrouth experienc- ed may be gathered from the fact that in digging a grave the other day, Mr. Orich found the earth dry and dusty four feet down. Mr. 0, McKinnon, nnonr classical master at the Collegiate, is ill of typhoid fever, but his condition is as favorable as could be expected at this stage of his illness, Still with the most rapid recovery ho will not be able to resume his duties until some weeks after the opening of the 0. T. There were three interments in Clinton cemetery on Monday after- noon of last week, and alt three funer- als reaching there about the same time, there must have been nearly 1500 people present. It is very rarely indeed, that so many burials take place there on the same day. In this imrnediate vicinity there has not been a good soaking rain for many weeks, and the consequence is that vegetation of all kinds is drying up. Gardeners complain that veget- ables are nothing like what they should be; pastures are burnt up, and stock is suffering in consequence. A rain of several days' duration would be most acceptably. Dr. MoAsh returned last week from London, England, where he spent several months attending the great hospitals in that greatest of cities. While there he passed the examina- tion which entitles hire to add to his name the letters M. R. C. P. -Member of the Royal Council of Physicians. The Dr. will take a few days rest be- fore locating again, but where that will be, he has not yet decided. On Wednesday of last week, as Mr. Henry Fisher and wife were on their way to Colborne in a covered buggy, they encountered a separator and en- gine on the Huron road, a couple of miles west of town. One of the separ- ator men took hold of the horse to lead it by, when it threw hire over by the fence, wheeled sharp around, and upset the buggy. Mr. and Mrs. Fish- er were both badly bruised and cut, but fortunately had no bones broken. The buggy was wrecked. On Tuesday a well-filled train of ex- cursionists from Berlin went to Gode- rich to enjoy an outing at the lake. That they were not all teetotallers was evidenced by the fact that they took half a carload of lager beer with thein to satisfy their thirst. On the way home some of the more jubilant ones fired a large sky rocket through the window of Mr. Lucas' parlor, adjoin- ing the station. It set fire to the lace curtain and would have caused a disastrous fire had it not been noticed promptly. -♦ _ Health For Rundown Women. From the experience of Mrs. Jno. Panke, Saskatoon, nothing compares with Ferrozone. "At times I was confined to my bed and couldn't do any work. I was run down in flesh, lost strength, my appetite failed, my color was pallid. Weary and cast - down, it seemed I could'nt catch up. Ferrozone started a new kind of life m my blood, built me up, vitalized and strengthened my nerves, and finally cured my heart and stomach pains." Ferrozone is a rebuilder that has special virtue in feibale ailments. Sold everywhere in 50c boxes ; try Ferrozone. Teeswater. At the election held in Greenock to fill the vacant reeveship, Mr. Sam. Hawthorn was elected, beating his opponent, Fullerton, by 51 votes. The figures given in the Registrar - General's report for the County of Bruce are as follows : Population, 59,- 556 ; births, 1,300, an increase of 108 over 1903 ; urarringes, 417, a decrease of 22 from 1003. Miss Eva McRae, 3rd con., has re- turned to %Vest Garafaxa to take charge of the school from which she had resigned at vacation. The school board had failed to secure a teacher and asked her to return for a short time. Mr. Duncan McKenzie, V. S. D., of Chicago, is spending a irsonth's vaca- tion with his parents on the 4th con. Mr. McKenzie is a student in the Il- linois Medical College, and has a posi- tion on the staff of McKillop Veterin- ary College, where' his duties com- mence early in October. After an absence of thirty years from Teeswater Mr, John Dodd, now of Dayton, Ohio, called upon old friends here last week. He is a cousin of Mr. J. E. Scott, 8th con., and hav- ing walked out to Mr. Scott's faun he said lte had great difficulty in re- cognizing the country so great is the change by clearing and improvement since he last saw it. One of the very early settlers of Kinloss township passed away about half past eleven o'clock Monday night in the person of Mrs. Win. Falconer, who lived with her son Win. on the 13th con., not far from Langside. Her maiden name Wats Mary Lockheart and she had. reached the advaneed age of 78 years mid 6 months. Mrs, Fal- eoner had been blind for the past three years, having lost her sight by the growth of cataracts on her eyes. Being of it very industrious and active disposition she felt the loss of her right very lnueli and since suffering that affliction she had been gradually wasting away. • Brussels. A letter from the 'West says Finlay )Scott, son of F. S. Scott, of I3russels, is gaining in health which is gnod pews. Andrew Cousley, formerly of Brus- sels, now of Gladstone, Dian., does not improve in health. Ile has beeu prac- tically off work for about two years. Sam. and Jas. l3eattie, of Barrie; Robt. Beattie, of Winghaur ; and Jno, Beattie, of Chesley, former residents, were in town last week attending the races. The first mentioned, plumps the scale at :300 pounds. Itis chestnut mare won lit money in the 2.22 pace on Wednesday. J. Anderson Coulter, of Ingersoll, son of Mrs. M. A. Coulter, Seaforth, formerly of Brussels, has been elected to the position of Mayor of Ingersoll, to succeed the late Mr. Boles, who died a few weeks ago. Mr. Coul- ter has many friends in Horan Coun- ty who will be pleased to hear of his appointment. In connection with East Huron Fall Fair Expert Judges will make the awards. The following is the Govern- ment appointed ljst •-Light Horses, A. G. Pettit, Grimsby ; Heavy Horses, J. A. Boag, Ravenshoe ; Beef Cattle and Sheep, E, Parkinson, Eramosa; Dairy Cattle and Swine, J. W. Clark, Cainsville. Other well known persons are being invited to complete the list of Judges. Robt. Thomson has arrived back to town from a business trip to Winni- peg and the Coast. He had an enjoy- able and successful outing which will yield good profits in the promotion of his produce business, Alfred Baker did not come home with Mr. Thomson but stayed off at North Dakota to visit relatives. Mr. Baker inved'i:ed in some Winnipeg lots, and farm pro- perty as well which we hope will yield him good returns. At the races on Wednesday of last week, Dr. McKelvey's horse ran away owing to the bridle coming off and the miracle was that more serious damage was not done. The runaway rig caught Geo. Brown's buggy and gave it a bad twist and threw Chas. Alder - son's daughter down, breaking a rib and doing other damage. Alex. Mc- Kelvey, who was in charge of the equine, was precipitated to the ground but escaped without much injury. The runaway struck the Judge's stand when horse and buggy dissolved part- nership. Scrnb yourself daily, you're not clean inside. Clean insides means clean stomach, bowels, blood, liver, clean, healthy tissue in every organ. Moral : Take Hollister's Rocky Moun- tain Tea. 35c, Tea, or Tablets. Ask your druggist. The well known druggist; A. L.
