Two horses and buggies collided on the street on the second day of the Fair ; both buggies were overturned. Somebody must have been reckless.

This is the third time that Mr. Strachan's store has been the scene of similar thefts. At noon on Wednesday of last week Mary Martin, wife of Samuel B. Smale, paid Nature's debt after a hard battle for some months with dropsy and heart failure, She was 49 years of age and had been a resident of Brussels for the past 13 years The annual Fall fair of East Huron Agricultural Society was held at Brus- sels on Thursday and Friday of last week, and was a splendid success, the crowd on Friday running into the thousands.

Moore, of Lien's Head, has resigned as chairman of the North Bruce license commission. The resig- nation has been accepted, and his suc- cessor will be appointed at once. Mr. Moore opposed the transfer of the hotel license from Lion's Head to Bar- row Bay. His two colleagues approv- ed, hence Mr. Moore's retirement. —Police Magistrate McEwing of Palmerston on Wednesday sentenced John. Price to 23 months' hard labor in the Central Prison, Ile was tried and found guilty of having indecently assaulted a girl about 1.4 years of age, Saturday evening, Sept. 28th. Price. is about 25 years old, and is accused of having chased and approached a num- ber of residents of Palmerston. —The Elma Agricultural Fair, held at Atwood en Oct. 2nd, has always been a popular one, and the exhibits in the hall well sustained the excel-• lent reputation of this community for producing fruits and flowers and fancy work. Upstairs the fancy and plain needlework was on exhibition, and, though not as great quantity was on exhibition as some years previous, the quality was above the average. — Mr. T. R. Manning, a former Prin- cipal of the Walkerton Public School, who left there about two years ago to accept a position as Field Secretary of the Iowa Sunday School Associa- tion, has entered the Methodist minis- try. He was recently received into the Iowa Conference, and has been appointed to a church at Highland Park,'an important town in which there is a college of 2;000 students. — The Seaforth Expositor reports three large potatoes grown in that town, of the Empire State variety.

These potatoes were grown in the garden of Mr. J. J. Darwin. —To live seventy years in the one place and never set foot on a railway train or see a trolley car, seems rather peculiar in Canada, but such has been the case with Mr. George Pennell, of Cargill, Bruce county. Pennell went to London to see the Fair this year, and he marvelled at the steam and electrical railways. Being shown a vaudeville performance, he maintained that one of the acrobatic tarns put on was not the work of men but of ma- chines. Many times during his life his friends have endeavored to induce Fennell to get on a train, but he al- ways refused, saying he felt that he would be killed. It took a great deal to at -last overcome his prejudice. Orangeville, Oct. 3—Two local bank managers were "stung" to -day by a smooth stranger who succeeded in passing himself off as Patrick Garnty, a prosperous and well-known farmer of Caledon township. The unknown approached E. Tomplin, manager of the Bank of Commerce branch and secured $200 on a bogus note. At the Sterling Bank, the manager of which is A. C. Kirkwood, the man got $100. Manager Dewar of the Bank of Hamil- ton balked at delivering the $200 that was requested there, and demanded that the alleged Garnty identify him- self. fle never came back. Dewar phoned the other banks, and then the police were appealed to, but no trace of the fellow could be found. The bank officials have been driving around the country in search. It is thought he went north on the steam- boat express at 3:30. He is described as about 45 years of age, tall, dark, with moustache, and dressed in a blue suit with black fedora hat. e rc; SIMPLE HOME RECIPE. Get from any prescription pharma- cist the following: Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half ounce ; Compound Kargon, one ounce; Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three ounces.

It is the prescr•iptron of an eminent ens thority, whose entire reputation, it is maid, was established by it.

Practice does a great deal, but correct fingering and the " Touch System," which we teach thoroughly, are of paramount importance. When the "Touch System" is mastered the operator never looks at the keyboard, but keeps her eyes on her notes, She saves the time lost by the "sight': operator in glancing from notes to keyboard and back to notes again—a considerable item in a day's work and a severe strain on the eyes as well. Our large, free catalogue tells more about our stenographer's course and gives much valuable information about the diplomas of the Business Educators' Association. The supply of our graduates is not equal to the demand. FOREST CITY BUSINESS COLLEGE Members of Business Educators' Association. J. W. WESTERVELT, 'Principal, London. East Wawanosh.

I L _ F —The temperance people of the township of Brant met in the Presby- terian church, Malcolm, on Tuesday of last week. lifter considerable dis- cussion it was decided to at once enter upon a vigorous campaign for local option. • There are four licenses in the township,located d in Elmwood, Eden Grove, Cargill and Dunkeld, In Elm- wood the proposition is not looked upon with much favor even by the temperance people, because in the event of the by-law coming into force only one license would be cut off. Part of the village is in another muni- cipality and one of the hotels is locat- ed. there. That Dry Cough is Bronchitis. If neglected it will weaken the throat and finally reach the lungs.
