THE COUNTY MiWAVAIVAWAIWIAMIWIMICWWVIANWIAMIN vie1?1D$ A special meeting of the Huron County Council opened in the Town Ball, Seaforth,. on 'Tuesday afternoon.

The object of this special meeting was for the purpose of considering the advisability of adopting a county system of roads, with the object of participating in the Government ap- propriation for good roads. In this connection it is worthy of note that .the only former occasion in which the County Council met in Seaforth was 35 years ago. The meeting then was also a special one, and was for the consideration of the proposition to buy up the toll roads on the north gravel road. After being received by the Sea - forth officials the Council proceeded to routine business. Moved by Messrs.

Sent to the Road and Bridge Com- mittee. Moved by Messrs. Harris and Gov- enlock, that Messrs. Milne, Leckie and the Warden be a committee to arrange. a welcome• to the ex -officials of this county at the June meeting— carried. A draft by-law, providing for going into the Good Roads business, was read by the clerk and Dr. Holmes, treasurer, who was one of the deputa- tion who waited on the Government in this connection, addressed the Council. Moved by Messrs.

James Stuart, sr. has been under the doctor's care for some time, but is now improving. Mr. A. Ross, who met with an acci- dent in a C.P.R. wreck near Sudbury, is visiting at Mr. Hudson's. Mr. W. R.

Another of Kinloss' old and esteem- ed residents has passed away in the person of Mr. Charles Stuart, who died in his 87th year. Mrs. Carleton of Moosejaw, accom- panied by D. McKinnon, left for the West on Tuesday with the body of her little step -son who died at Mrs. McKinnon's on Monday, 17th, of pneu- monia and inflammatory rheumatism. The cornmittees on the Good Roads reported that a by-law be prepared in accordance with the by-law of the county of Middlesex on good roads, and submitted to the whole council. The by-law, designating the roads to be assessed by the county as a county system was presented to the Council, and thoroughly discussed. It passed its first and second reading, but was defeated on the third reading. The rock on which the scheme was wrecked was the length of time which the county would have to retain con- trol of the roads. According to the act, the by-law could not be rescinded for three years, and the roads would have to be maintained by the county until such time as the entire appropri- ation was spent, or until two-thirds of the municipalities affected signified their willingness to again assume the roads. The Council then adjourned. Wingham People With Weak Lungs Nee4 VipQl. 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. Shake well in a bottle and take a teaspoonful dose after each meal and at bedtime. The above is considered by an emi- nent authority, who writes in a New York daily paper, as the finest pre- scription ever written to relieve Back- ache, Kidney Trouble, Weak Bladder and all forms of Urinary difficulties. This mixture acts promptly on the eliininative tissues of the Kidneys, en- abling them to filter and strain the uric acid and other waste matter from the blood which causes Rheumatism. Some persous who suffer with the afflictions may not feel inclined to place much confidence in this simple mixture, yet those who have tried it say the results are simply surprising, the relief being effected without the slightest injury to the .stomach or. other organs. Mix some and give it a trial. It certainly comes highly recommended. It is the prescription of an eminent authority, whose entire reputation, it is said, was established by it. A druggist here at home when asked stated that he could either sup- ply the ingredients or mix the pre- scription for our readers, also recom- mends it as harmless. Many people inherit weak lungs which are likely to be attacked by consumption, So also are lungs weakened by disease or by a stubborn hacking cough. No matter what the cause, Vinol strengthens weak lungs and gives one the power to throw off wasting dis- eases. The reason that Vinol has such power to heal and strengthen is be- cause it contains in a highly concen- trated form all of the curative, medi- cinal and strength -creating eleinents of cod liver oil, actually taken from fresh cods' livers, with the ltseless, nauseating oil limina g eliminated ted unci tonic added. So sure are We of what Vinnl will do that we ask every person in Wing - 'ham suffering from Weak lungs, stub - barn hacking cnughs or any wasting disease to try Vinol en am offer to return money if it &fila.

The horse market is becoming more active and prices promise to maintain a high level next spring. Slight improvement is reported in the condition of Mrs. Robert Keith who has been, very low for some weeks. The snow has become so deep in the woods that bush work is carried on with difficulty and much of it is sus- pended. Mr. Benning, architect of Listowel, was in town on Tuesday to confer with the building committee of Knox church congregation. Several schemes of improving or remodelling the church building were discussed. .A Carbery, Man., paper reports the death of Angus McKenzie, whose early home was on the third conces- sion, Culross, and on the farm now owned by Mr. Frank Wocks. Mr. McKenzie died on Dec. 24th last, at Vancouver, B.C., where he had gone some eighteen months previously. Knox Church, Teeswater, reports thus :—Number of families in the con- gregation, 231; communicants on the roll Dec. 31, 515; members added dur- ing 1907, 27 ; removed 15. The total amount contributed for all purposes was $4,185.80 Contributions to ordin- ary revenue were $2,010.80. Collec- tions amounted to $863.90. The C. P. R. has had lots of trouble with the snow. The worst part of the road appears to be between Arth- ur and Orangeville where there aro a number of long and narrow, though not deep, cuts. These readily fill in with the drifting snow and after being plowed out a few times the snow be- cornes so high at the sides that a plow cannot be forced through. West Wawanosh. Turnberry.

He was a prominent church member and leaves a widow and several brothers and sisters to mourn his loss. Goderich, February 20.—Sometimes events in the drama of real life take place on the stage, and this was the case last night at Victoria Opera House, where the Francis Greene Company aro filling a three nights' engagement. The event was nothing short of a real marriage, the principals in which wore Arthur Hubert Greene, late of Pietermaritzburg, South Africa, and Mary Henningway, late of Portland, Maine., The grodm is trom- bone player in the company's band and the bride is one of the leading ladies. The ceremony was performed by Rev. Jas. A. Anderson, B.A., pas- tor of Knox Church, before the play of the evening commenced. —"To' the Chief of Police of Upper Canada." This is the way a letter was addressed which reached Toronto detective department yesterday after- noon. It was from Mrs. Thos. Clancy, 21 Bridge street, Brooklyn, N. Y., and the following were the contents :— "Dear Sir and Chief of Police :—Will you be so kind as to find my friends ? There are four uncles and one auntie. Their names are Michael, Patrick Timothy and Julia Mechoni. The brothers are carpenters, and brothers - in -laws also. You will find them around farmers or horses. They left County Cork between 1840 and 1845, and if you were to write them they would answer right away," —For nearly three years now Mr. Henry Smith, of Wallace tp., has been testing, experimenting with and improving a new type of cultivator, and has brought to a point now at which he is ready to put it on the market. From the work he has done with it on his own farm, it is said, it will revolutionize methods of farm cultivation. The principle that under- lies this machine is one that follows the best lines now recognized in farm- ing, that of cutting weeds as often as desired in order to kill them by pre- venting leaf growth. At the same time it is adapted to so great a variety of farm work that it practically dis- penses with the need of a plow and the slow work of plowing as ordinari- ly performed is quickly accomplished, one man with two teams doing as much with this cultivator as three plowmen each with single teams could do. Council met on the 22nd. Members all present. Reeve Bailie in the chair. Minutes of last meeting read and ap- proved on motion of Thompson and Anderson. The Treasurer's Bond was presented by Wm. Thompson and ac- cepted on motion of Thompson and Anderson. The Auditors' Report was presented by J. A. Mallough and ac- cepted on motion of Anderson and Medd.

Council adjourned to meet on March 27th at 10 o'clock.
