N. Dafoe of Northfield Farm, Que., in an interview. "She got a bottle of Psychine and after using it for a few days she was quite well. 1 took a cold and am using it and am getting all right. I think Psychine is one of the best tonics on the market to -day." There you have the whole matter in a nutshell. La Grippe and colds are among the forerunners of consumption. This malt had one, his wife had the other. Psychine not only cured both but it built them up so that their bodies are strong enough to resist disease.

On the same basis had Toronto been similarly affected it would have meant for this city 2,300 cases and 250 deaths during the one month. —Mr. Henry Montag of Walkerton (formerly of Culross) died very sud- denly on Monday of last week. A lit- tle after dinner he took a pail of water to the stable and in less than five minutes afterwards Mrs. Montag noticed him lying on the floor near the stable door.

WING HAM MACHINE SHOP —It is expected that by 'October 15th the G. & G. track will be com- pleted and in condition for traffic as far as Milverton. This extension from Elmira to Milverton is 18 miles in length leaking the total length of track laid from Guelph 34 miles, and serves four new stations, viz., Wallen - stein, Linwood, Millbank and Milver- ton.

George l•Iolwell, of Thed- ford, Lambton county, is the plain- tiff. Mrs. Fanny Powell, who has been separated for soine time from her husband, has been his house -keep- er, and is his adopted daughter. Her son, Geo. Holwell Powell, is aclerk in the Sovereign Bank at Exeter. Hol- well, plaintiff, is seventy-one years old. He alleges that the lank clerk and his father, J. H. Powell, came to him last July, and induced him to take his $9,000 out of the Sovereign Bank branch at Thedfor•d, and put it in the Exeter branch. The clerk told him he would get a higher ,rate of in- terest for it at the latter branch. The old man made out the cheque to the young clerk, and the latter deposited the money in his own name in the Exeter Bank. When Holwell heard of this he was very wroth, and de- manded the return of the money. The young fellow would not give it back and refused to accept a draft which Holwell drew on him. "It was a gift to rue," was the claim of the adopted grandson. The old man consulted Mayor Judd and the latter brought suit. Temporary injunction was granted, restraining the bank from paying over the money, to either of • the Powells. An agreement has since been arrived at by which Powell gives up the money.

Co., the Goderich Carriage Co., the Jackson Mfg. Co. of Clinton, and the Goderich Canning Factory. A well-known citizen who has been making a count of the new houses in course of erection reports eleven in St Andrew's ward, nine in St. George's ward, sixteen in St. David's 'vard and though he has not made a count in St, Patrick's ward he thinks there are enough to bring the total to close on sixty. On Friday last, 12th inst., a hoisting engine, used in the construction of the bridge over the Maitland River at Goderich, toppled over into the river, causing the death of John Madiford, and severely injuring Henry Gilman, Dean Lynn and J. Campbell, all of whom were employed on the bridge. The drop was at least 00 feet. For- tunately, hut four men went down with the machine. The accident is blamed to a gust of wind, Madiford was caught beneath the wreck and terribly crushed. He is said to have been a member of a wealthy English family. Fruit trees suffered severely by last week's snow. storm ; in some of the town orchards half the limbs of all ap- ple trees were broken oil, and other fruit trees and all kinds of bushes suf- fered severely, S. Morningstar losing about 100 young peach trees. Elec- tric light, telephone and telegraph wires did not escape, as the soft snow held on to them, its weight breaking then: in places. Many fruit trees have been so badly damaged that owners de- clare their hearing qualities have pass- ed away for years. On Wednesday evening the glass dropped below freezing point, and apparently all ten- der plants were destroyed, A happy and an unusual event took place on Friday, Sept. 28th, at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Cantelon, of the 7th con. of Goderich township, where a large number of relatives as- sembled to help the worthy couple celebrate the sixtieth anniversary of their wedding day. Mr. and Mrs. Cantelon are both natives of Tipper- ary, Ireland, but came to Ontario when quite young, and their wedding took place in Toronto township. Nine years later they removed to Goderich township and to the lot where they have ever since resided. Here by industry and perseverance they made for themselves and their family a comfortable home, and they are now in their declining years en- joying a well-earned ease. Mr. Can- telon is in his eighty-seventh year, while Mrs. Cantelon is fourscore. They are both in excellent health for persons of their advanced age.
