Endorse Our Cod Liver Oil Prepara- tion, Vinol, Many of the most eminent physi- cians are now prescribing Vinol as the most satisfactory cod liver prepara- tion. Thus it is fast superseding other forms of cod liver oil and emulsions. W. N. Rana, M. D., of Evans Mills, N, Y•, writes : "From personal experi- ence, I am able to appreciate the value of your cod liver preparation, Vinol. I have used it,and prescribed it large- ly during the past eighteen months, and I want to say that Vinol is all you claire for it and more," Dr. Bonchelle of Thomasville, Ga., a physician well known in the South; writes :—"I used Vinol in my family and in my general practice with most excellent results for bronchial and pul- monary troubles and to create strength," Another physician writes : "I arn. satisfied that Vinol derives its Won- derful live -giving and strength -creat- ing power from the medicinal curative elements found in the cod's liver. It is the most satisfactory strength cre- ator and vitalizer for old people, weak worsen and delicate. children which. it .has ever been my pleasure to pre- scribe." The reason that Vinol has such remarkable curative and strength cre- ating power is because it is made by a scientific, extractive and concentrat- ing process from fresh cods' livers, combining with peptonate . of iron (which is a needful constituent for the blood) all the rnedibinal, healing and body-building elements of cod liver oil, but no oil. We ask every person in Winghatn who is in need of such a medicine to try Vinol on our guarantee to return money if it fails to give satisfaction. 3.

Hiscocks, It caused,* scarcely any surprise when on Saturday evening Last it was reported about town that Alexander Mckenzie (known as "Smiddy") had passed away. He had reached the advanced age of 88 years and to all who saw him of late 'it was evident that he had not long to live as the whole constitution seemed worn out. The meeting of the Presbytery of Maitland and of the Women's Pres- byterial Association held here on Tuesday afternoon brought to town a great number of church workers, the women being in the majority. Brief- ly, the program of the day consisted of three meetings :—A meeting of the Presbytery held in the Methodist Church in the afternoon ; a meeting of the ,W. P. M, S. delegates in Knox Church in the evening. The ladies of the Presbyterian Church furnished tea for the visitors in the lecture -room of the church, HOM ESEEKERS' t} ,ft6vx 2ND CLASS 4 Round-'ipip Excursions tH�rl+� MANITOBA SASKATCHEWAN ALBERTA GOING DATES April 14, 28 Juno 9, 23 • Aug. 4, 18 Nay 12, 26 July '1, 21 Sept.1,16, 2A Tickets stood to rettrra within 60 dayrc VERY LOW RATES from en points in Ontario, Ranging /Winnipeg and return $32.00 between Io ton and return $42.r 0.

Deemer 0011 Agent GRAND TRUNK AT FRANCO-BRITISH EXHIBITION, LONDON, ENG. It is a well known fact that all the World's Fairs and International Ex- hibitions, held in the past decade, the Grand Trunk has been most promin- ently represented with attractive dis- plays, and in each case gold medals and diplomas have been their award. At the Franco -British Exhibition which is to be held at Shepherd's Bush,. London, May to October, this year, the Grand Trunk are not behind in their progressiveness and have erected a beautiful pavilion covering about 2,000 square feet of space in a picturesque spot known as the French Court. This structure follows in design the Renaissance style of architecture with an artistic pillared entrnce. Over the entrance rises a group of statuary representing the Grand Trnnk Rail- way System as "speed" with an elec- tric star surmounting the head of the central figure emblematic of the "Star of Empire," and on each side of this figure is represented in smaller figures the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, the central figure joining their hands representing the spanning ,of the en': tiniest by the new Transcontinental Railway. This allegorical , group is a very imposing one and the idea is appropriate. The interior of the, building is arranged in a combination of color harmony of olive green and reel. Tho scenic views of the Grand Trunk Rail- way, as well as views of the summer tourists districts and fishing and hunt- ing, resorts in Canada are beautifully portrayed by a series of bromide enlargements finished in a sepia tint and framed in a dull quartered oak. The photographic work has been exe- cuted by Mr, J. W. Swan, the well known landscape photographer, who has excelled himself, if possible, in this Collection. These pietuees cover the walls to a distance of two feet from the ceiling, and the entire interior has been set off by a beautiful frieze made up of grains and grasses from Ontario, Manitoba, Alberta, Saskatchewan end the West. In this frieze are embed- ded specimens of Canadian fish and game mounted in an attractive way, the whole forming a unique and pleas- ing effect. In the centre of the robin a pyramid has been erected, on which is shown samples of the cereals of the Province of Ontario, as well as natural samples of frait from the "Garden of Ca- nada," Animated moving picture machines, projecting fishing. hunting and rail- road seirnes, are other features on the -floor space. Interesting and instruc- tive literature has been specially pre - pitted for distribution, and it is esti- mated that from fifteen to twenty million people will visit this exhibition during its lifetime, Canada and the Grand 'Trunk Railway System will secure a tremendous amount of pub- licity through this'medium. • Among the special -features on dis- play in this building will be two excep- tionally fine rimose heads, one the record head taken from the Province m£ (1 ,tt . ttt rta and.li the other n, freak that will altratot a great Ileal of atteia tion, Mr. S. W. Cummings, who until recently was General Passenger Agent Clilntot. The corner stone of Clinton Roman Catholic Church will be Iaid on May Hist by lfight Reverend Bishop Mc- Evay, The government has authorized the erection of a balcony to the Post Ofllce,for the convenience of the care- taker's family. A, new telephone directory was issued to customers here last week ; there are 158 of these instruments in use in town, J, E. Hovey has a Passenger (or wild) Pigeon stuffed, on exhibition in his store. The bird was given to Mr, Hovey by Mr, Jas, Smith, who has had it for some forty years. There are very few birds of this species to - clay, they being supposedly extinct. People of town were shocked on Wednesday, when a report reached here that Thos. Wheately, son of Mr, Joseph Wheately, Chief of Police, had met his death by the burning of the Queen's Hotel, Tilsonburg, where he was employed. The very greatest sympathy is manifested for Chief Wheately and his family in this sad bereavement. The people of this town and vicinity will learn with deep regret that Dr. T, T. McRae, who bas been a partner with Dr. Gunn, has decided to leave town and start a practice in Brussels. He is a young man of recognized abil- ity and skill, with. a courteous and gentlemanly bearing that has made many friends, and his contemplated removal will leave a vacancy not eas- ily filled. On Friday night a would-be burglar forced up a window at the back of Counter's jewellery store, pried off the iron bars, and got inside, intending, no doubt, to rob the store, but in order to reach the store, it would be necessary to go through another door, against which Ray Rumball, who at- tends to the night telephone service, had his bed, and was lying.. on it asleep, there not being sufficient noise to awaken him. Death came with startling sudden- ness to Mr. Henry Stevens of town, on Wednesday afternoon, he expiring without a moment's warning. He has been in more or less enfeebled health for some time, but his death was en- tirely unlooked for. He was one of the oldest residents of town, and one who has done as much, perhaps, in the building up of the town as any moan who has lived here. He was a man in whom implicit confidence could always be placed. He was in his 75th year. The Strenuous Life Pulls So Hard On The Stomach It Must Have Help. The stress and strain of the strenu- ous life in both city and country makes stomach troubles. Five peo- ple sutler to -day where one did ten years ago with sick headache, dizzi- ness, flatulence, distress after eating, specks before the eyes, bloating, ner- vousness, sleeplessness and the many other symptoms of indigestion. All who are suffering with stomach troubles, and that means at least two out of three in Wingham and other towns, should use Mi-o-na stomach tablets. Nothing else is as safe, yet effective; nothing else can he so thoroughly relied upon to relieve all troubles from indigestion as Mi-o-na. So reliable is Mi-o-na that J. W. McICibbon with every 50c box he sells, gives a guarantee to refund the money unless the remedy cures.
