Mr, 'Lindsay had reached the ripe old age of 90 years. We are sorry to hear that Mrs. Chas. Finlay of Howick met with an accident on Wednesday morning last, while driving home from Mr. Jas, Wylie's, Turnberry. J. T. Wylie was driving along by Mr. Andrew Gem - mill's, when the cutter upset, and threw Mrs. Finlay out, giving her a bad shaking up, and bruising her arm. It has been very panful and badly swollen since. We hope it will soon be all right again. On Monday evening of last week as number of Wroxeter's young men and • women thought they would have a good time at the expense of other peo- ple, so they visited the bush of Mr. McTavish. After making their taffy and sugar (and having as they thought, a good joke) they left the bush, after burning the pan very bad- ly. But the joke was quickly turned, and they were glad to settle it with Mr. McTavish by paying the price of a new pan. A dear nights fun after all, Where are Wroxeter's popular young ladies ? Dn.

There is so much Rheumatism here in our neighborhood now that the fol- lowing advice by an eminent authori- ty, who writes for readers of a large eastern daily paper, will be highly appreciated by those who suffer :-- Get front any good pharmacy one- half ounce Fluid Extract Dandelion, one ounce Compound Kargon, three ounces of Comported Syrup Sarsapa- rilla. Shake these well in a bottle and take in teaspoonful doses after each meal and at bedtime ; also drink plen- ty of good water. It is claimed. that there are few vic- tbns of this dread and torturous dis- ease who will fail to find ready relief in this simple home-made nhixtare, and in most cases a permanent cure is the result. This simple recipe is said to strengthen and cleanse the elimina- tivo tissues of the kidneys so that they con filter and strain from the blood and system the poisons, acids and waste matter, which cause not only Rheumatism, but nuinerous other diseases. Every than or woman here who feel that their kidneys are not healthy and active,or who suffers front any urinary rouble whatever, should not hesitate to make up this mixture, as it is certain to do much good, and may save you from much misery and suffering after a while, Our home druggists say they will either supply the in redients or mix the presortption ready to take .if our readers ask them.

A single application of Woolford's Sanitary Lotion will usually cure a se- vere case of Barber's Itch. It at once destroys the microbe causing the ail- ment and the patient is accordingly free from the disease within a few moments. Of course a few days must elapse before the skin can heal and be- come as smooth as formerly. This remedy also cures instantly, itch, mange, prairie scratches, and every form of contagious itch on human or animals. (1) For Sale by A. L. HAMILTON. Morris.
