Owing to a rush of business, g , Prof. O'Brien was unable to leave town this week. He will, however, leave next Monday for Illyth. As it is seldom that Wingham people have the oppor- tunity, to consult such an eminent man in his profession in their own town, they should not overlook this chance now, to have an examination from him, from which they will derive great benefit. Parents should not hesitate to bring their children and find out what trade or profession they are best suited for, to be a success in their future life. His fatherly and sound advice will greatly influence them towards leading a moral and useful life, and become a credit to themselves and their parents, as well as their fellowmen. Saturday will positively be his last day in Wing - ham, Hundreds of Winghatn's best people have called on him and all speak the highest of his readings.

Mrs. England was well known by the elder people of this place, hav- ing been one of the first settlers of the township. It is said they had the first white male child born in the township. He is now in the Metho- dist ministry. The annual report for Trinity Church has been issued.

There is a good deal of talk and some newspaper articles about the cutting off of the one license in our town, and of a special census. One would think to hear some people that the town is incensed with the Govern- ment and License commissioners, for cutting off the second license, but such is not the case. The village as a whole is pretty well satisfied, and what is the use of kicking any way. The law is plain and firm and we lack nearly 75 of the number required for a second license, and so we must abide by the law. The following resolution was passed by the Quarterly Board of the Wroxe- ter Methodist Church at a meeting held in Salem church, April 29, 1907:— "That 907:"That it was with deep regret that we learned of Bro. Joseph Hall's removal from our midst. During his steward- ship of 32 years, at the Belmore ap- pointment, he has won many friends both in the congregation and among the members of the Quarterly Board. His kindness of heart and sterling in- , tegrity we will gratefully remember. We realize the great loss we are sustaining in being deprived of his cheerful and ungrudging service. But what is our loss will be another's gain. Our prayer is that the blessing of God may follow him and his family to their new home." Morris. Ben. Abbey spent Sunday at his home in Grey. Mr. D1il.i.

No. 462, Belgrave, wish to con- vey to you our heartfelt sympathy in this your hour of sorrow. Itpwould be impossible to express the sympathy we felt, when we learned of the death of your beloved wife, who was called away so suddenly. Although we can but faintly estimate the severity of your loss, we wish to offer our sym- pathy to you, and we know that your loss has been her gain. We realize the fact that when we are called upon to part with those we love, it is hard to say "Thy will be done," but we feel sure, dear friends, if you carry your sorrow to Him, who was the Man of Sorrow, you will be given strength to "Heall say that who doeth things well, knows best." May the Almighty Father, whom we as Orangemen are taught to revere, send comfort and support to you and your family. Signed on behalf of the lodge, Bert. Watson, Rec. Sec. Robt. McCrea Com.

McCaughey, of Blyth, on the 8th line of Morris, has been purchased by Henry Richmond, the price being $2,150. Mr. Gordon Erabnry, also Robt.

David Irving, Morris, has repladed the valuable stallion he recently lost by another named "Flat Top Swell," purchased from Mr. Hazard of Mil - brook, Ont. East Wawanosh. Mrs. Jas. Noble, who has been ill for the past six weeks, is still very poorly. Mrs. Chapman of Fordyce will close her store at 7 p. m„ on Wednesday evenings; she desires the public to note this. Many of the farmers in this locality report a scarcity of fodder, and as there is nothing as yet in the fields, the cattle are apt to be in poor con- dition. A number of 6th line farmers who have been getting their mail at Mar- noch in the past have decided to have it brought on down to John Solar's by Maitland Henry, mail carrier, twice a week for the next eight months.

Sperling as butter -maker, and Harry Champion assistant. Gil- lespie and McMillan are busy buying up hogs to consume the buttermilk. The Quarterly Official Board of the Whitechurch circuit met in White- church Monday afternoon, April 29th. Rev, R. W. Millyard, chairman of the district, presided. Owing to numerous removals, and the consequent financial weakening of the circuit, it was feared some time ago that a change in the arrangements for the circuit might be necessary at the approaching Confer- ence. The people, however, are rising to the occasion, and are putting forth such united and special efforts that already the finances are in such a con- dition that no change is now antici- pated, and Rev. W. A. Finlay will continue as pastor. The people of the circuit, though not numerous, are de- voted and loyal, and are heroically facing existing conditions. The out- look has many encouragements for both pastor and people. This week John Mooney, 5th line, disposed of a Yorkshire sow to the buyers that scaled 790 pounds. He re- ceived $4.75 per .cwt,, netting him $37.05. A tidy price for one pig, nearly that of an ordinary bullock. One of Wingham's merchants was around one day last week putting up hills, tacking them in such a way, that they were left blowing in the wind, a very good thing to frighten horses. One of our 4th line ladies was driving along when her horse got frightened at one of these bills, ran away and left the lady on the road, who narrowly escaped serious in- juries. The three auction sales, represent- ing the six Kelly estates, came off last week and were well attended. F. S. Scott, of Brussels, who is the assignee, was auctioneer.

The stomach is wrong, assimilation is poor and food is not changed into blood. The system lacks vitality and recon- structive power which can be supplied by Ferrozone. It braces the appetite digestion is stimulated, what you eat is transformed into the kind of nutri- ment your system requires.
