J. Henry Christie GROCER AND CROCKERY MERCHANT WINGHAM CANADIAN FORESTERS. AT CHURCH. The annual Church service of Court Maitland No. 25, C. 0, F., was held on Sunday last in the Baptist church, a large number of the xneinbers being present. Rev. H. E. Allen, the pastor of the Church, preached a most excellent sermon from Matthew 23rd chapter, part of 8th verse -"All ye are breth- ren." After extending to the broth - ren a cordial welcome, Pastor Allen remarked that it was a commendable practice to acknowledge dependence upon the Divine being, and there was no better place to do so than in God's house, nor was there a better day for such a service than the Lord's day. The following is a synopsis of his dis- course :- lst--The fact of Human Brother- hood. There are three classes in this brotherhood. (1) The brotherhood of the human race. (2) The Spiritual brotherhood. (3) The brotherhood of fraternal organization. The patriotic and truly Canadian character of the Order was specially noted by the speaker. 2nd -The Principles of the Order. (1) Liberty. This is not lawlessness, bot government of the Order, by the Order and for the Order. (2) Equality. This does not mean that every man's opinion is of the same weight, or that every man is equally respected, but that a morally clean man doing right is equally entitled to respect, whether he be rich or poor. (3) Benevolence. This is not simply well-wishing, but WELT:MULLING. (4) Concord. The opposite of discord ; not the yielding up of our convictions. The speaker defined concord as -the holding of our convictions in such open and broad- minded spirit, and manifesting them in such a kindly manner, that though differing widely in the pitch of our point of view, the result will be one grand harmony. 3rd -The dangers to avoid. (1) Ex- clusiveness. (2) Neglect of home duties. (3) Allowing lodge claims to interfere with Church duties. (4) Mis- taking fraternity and benevolence for Christianity. Pastor Allen closed his most appro- priate discourse by several applying thoughts. The sermon was earnest and intensely practical throughout. It was much appreciated by the breth- ren of Court Maitland, many of whom consider it the best society sermon they have had the privilege of hear- ing. ...The... "Little Eaton" LADIES!

DEAR SIR :-There appears in your issue of Sept. 10th, an article entitled "Patronize home" and signed ''A Lov- er of Fair Play," to which I desire permission to refer. The writer com- plains of the fact that workmen and materials for painting the parsonage at Whitechurch have been brought from Wingham, while a local painter and hardware dealer have been passed by. He further states that when any carpenter work is done in connection with the parsonage, a mechanic is found in Whitechurch. This he thinks is to be accounted for by the fact that the mechanic referred to is a member of the Parsonage Trustee Board, and this state of affairs he compares to that practice in the political world known as graft. These statements, involving as they do not only one member, but the entire Board, of which I am Chairman, seem to me to demand a reply. The business relating to the parson- age is transacted by a Trustee Board consisting of nine members -three from each appointment -whose. duty is to transact the business in the in- terests of the circuit which they rep- resent, and not in the interests of any individual, and they are therefore under no obligation to patronize any particular mechanic or dealer. The local painter referred to, while a workman of recognized skill in his varied employments, does not make an exclusive business of painting, and cannot regard the action of the Board as any injustice to him. Nor does he, for inquiry reveals the fact that he did not desire the contract and was unprepared to do the graining that is being done. Having employed a paiuter, it was not the business of the Board to dictate as to where he should procure his materials. Had the Board been furnishing the materials, they would doubtless have patronized the local dealer as they have done hither- to. When carpenter work of any im- portance or value in connection with the parsonage has been done by the member of the Board in question he has resigned his position, and has ten- dered for, and been awarded the con- tract on his own merits. Whatever work he has done on other occasions has been done as a matter of conven- ience to the Board, though often at inconvenience to himself. Yours truly, W. A. Finlay. Belgrave. Mrs. l'Vm.

Gordon Wightman of Goderich was a visitor around Westfield on Sunday and Monday. The anniversary services held in the Westfield Methodist Church were well attended on Sunday last. Rev. W. G. Howson of Wingham preached two very able sermons and was listened to with great attention. The lecture on Monday evening by Mr. Clark was a success, the church being filled. Many from around here attended the funeral of Mr. and Mrs. Reid of Goderich, who were killed on Thurs- day of last week near Guelph. Mrs. Reid was well known around West- field and much thought of. She was a daughter of Mr. E. McDowell, a resident of 5th line, for many years. She Was Wild With Pain. From Willow Creek, Ont., Miss E. Diegel writes : "A few years ago I was drenched with rain and got lum- bago ; it was like a steel rod piercing my back. I also had earache and was just wild with pain. I applied batting soaked with Nerviline to my ear and rubbed on Nerviline for the lumbago. That rubbing relieved and in a few hours I was well. No other liniment could do this." It's the penetrating power of Nerviline that snakes it su- perior to all outer liniments. Nothing beats it. 25c at all dealers. Gorrie. Sanford Zimmerman is on the sick list this week. Mr. and Mrs. J. R. Williams visited Ethel friends, Sunday last. Mr. and Mrs, J. J, Earngey visited Moorefield friends on Sunday last.

Harold Hogg, who purposed attend- ing Model School, Clinton, has decid- ed to take another course. Harold is still at home, but expects to take a situation shortly. The harvest home services at Roe's church last Sunday were quite suc- cessful. Rev. McTavish of Gorrie de- livered two excellent sermons, which were appreciated by all. Mr. McTav- ish will, he made welcome again at this appointment. The choir rendered music quite in touch with the occa- sion. On Monday evening, the church was almost filled again. All listened with rapt attention to a varied and interesting programme. Revs. Baker of Bluevale and Powell of Brussels gave spicy addresses. The ladies' quartette from Brussels rendered three beautiful selections, and Miss Pearl Baker, soloist, won herself great credit again in the rendering of "The bird with a broken pinion." The readers were Miss Josie Buchanan of Brussels, Mr. McNeil of Ethel and Miss Mary Johnstone, 2nd con. Miss Ina Bryans gave an organ solo in her usual good style. All the programme was good, but we feel we must make special mention of the outsiders who so will- ingly assisted us and for which we feel very grateful. The proceeds of the services amounted to $29, which was all free-will offering. The pastor wishes all who took part to accept a hearty vote of thanks from the con- gregation. +--- Health Health Depends On Good Blood. Everyone who uses Ferrozone has good color and great vitality.
