Is the theme we bring to your notice at this time. Some wise man has said -"My son, get wisdom, and with all thy getting, get under- standing." The wise man to -day says -"Get a New Snit or Over- coat, and when you are getting, 'got it made to your order, in your own town, where you know what you are getting,' and that it is genuine Tailor-made." That would be wisdom; that would be un- derstanding. Our NEW SPRING GOODS have arrived, and it is not exaggerating to say that they include the nicest lines we have had for some time, and at prices corresponding with the qualities shown. Space will not allow us to go into details, but WE HAVE THE GOODS and can make them any style desired. We are dealing in strong statements, but will back them up.

Highest prices, cash or trade. -Kent's, Wingbam. . Everything is progressing favorably in preparation for the Dominion Day Celebration at Teeswater. Those interested in the race track in the park got together a few days ago and had it graded, raked off and pat in greatly improved condition, A slight change in the C. P. R. pas- senger time table on the Teeswater branch went into effect on Monday. The afternoon train now arrives at. 1.30 and the night train at 10.40. There is no change in the outgoing time -morning train leaves at 0.15, afternoon at 2.55, A dog poisoner has evidently got busy in Teeswater this season. No less than five canines went the way of all flesh during the past two weeks, evidently as a result of having strychnine. The victims belonged to Messrs. S. Arscott, Jos. Olheiser, M. Goetz, Jas. Donaghy and Rev, D. Tait, Something like consternation took possession of our baseball team when it became known on Monday that Mr. Wilf. Johnston, their very cap- able pitcher, bad the offer of a situ- ation in Weston and was likely to accept. To make it as bad as possible he was to report for,duty on Tuesday, the day on which the team was to play its first league game against its redoubtable antagonist, Wingham. Howick. WANTED AT ONCE. -1000 cases of Eggs, 1000 boxes Butter, large quan- tities Wool. Highest prices, cash or trade. -Kneels, Wingbam. Itis our painful duty to record the death of the beloved wife of Mr. Edward Armstrong, of con: 16. She was taken suddenly ill on May 28th with appendicitis, and although doctors were in attendance she gradually grew worse till Sunday night when the family was called to her bedside. Talking calmly to the family up to the last, she passed peace- fully away at noon, on Monday, May 31st. She leaves two daughters and four sons to mourn, viz:-Mrs.`Geo, A, Dane of the 13th con., Miss Jennie, David, Robert and William at home and Edward at Harriston ; besides a sister, Mrs. Mathew Dane, and two brothers,. Mr. Win. Weir of Ho wick and Mr. John Weir of Regina, Sask. Mrs. Armstrong's maiden name • was Angelina Weir. She was born in 1851, in the township of Cartwright, county of Durham, coming to this township about fifty years ago with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. David Weir, settling on a farm about three miles north; of Wroxeter, where she resided until she inu'ried Me, Edward Armstrong. Mrs. Armstrong was a loving wife, fend mother and a kind neighbor, always ready to help those suffering or in need. She was a member and regular attendant of the English church. The remains were accom- panied by a very large cortege of friends and relations to the English church where Rev. Mr. Farr spoke from Proverbs -1:15 -"Every wise woman buildeth her house," after which she was laid to rest in the Ford- wich cemetery. The family have the heartfelt sympathy of the whole com- munity. Mr. and Mrs. Win. Fowler got word last week of an accident to their son Dr. Grosert who is practising medi- cine at Trancho, Alberta. He was being driven into the country to see a patient when the team ran away and he was thrown from the rig, break- ing his leg below the knee. Doctors are far between out in Alberta and the one that set Dr. Fowler's broken leg bad to travel fifty miles across country. The patient, however, is getting on all right. A Case Of Poisoning. Not unfrequently caused by cheap acid corn salve. Be safe and use Put- nam's Corn Extractor. Purely veget- able, harmless and always cures. In- sist on "Putnam's." TO HORSE BREEDERS. The very large number of sympa- thetic friends that gathered in the Methodist Church, Gorrie, on Tuesday afternoon, June 8th, to mourn with those who mourned over the passing away of their loved one, attested the very high regard in which Mrs. William, Pyke was held. The service Was most impressive, Mr. McTavish basing his remarks upon the text, "Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints," The hymns sung were favorites of the deceased, and a quartette, "The Christian's Good Night," was rendered by a quartette, Seldom has it been our duty to record so sad a death. Happy were her anticipations, with her has-. band, as they looked forward to the time when they Would tbelcynie the first little one into their home. In the fullness of time the itttle one came but its coaling brought c earl} to jts mother, as well as to itself, and the little form was Iaid in its narreW resting place just a little while before her. How sad ; hoW inexpressibly sad for her partner in life, but in his awful loneliness he has the deep consolation of one whose 'anchor holds within the veil,' Mrs. Pyke was born and grew up in Hotvick, At Orange 11111 before her -marriage she filled the positions of teacher In the Sunday -school and organist of the church With rare devotion, She Was of an affectionate disposition, go that friendship's circle was to her a large one. indeed, it may be said of her LW 'nova knew her but to lova her.' POULTRY NOTES. Poultry for profit demands good quarters and good. feed. • Oats are not the best nor the cheap- est food for poultry, As a rule the hens with the largest combs will prove to be the best layers. With eggs high in price it will pay you to feed generously and to get the eggs in return. Wheat can't be beaten as a poultry feed, but cO"rn should be fed with it to providethe starchy food needed. Provide plenty of litter for the chickens to scratch in this winter. Leaves are excellent. A Great Age, One hundred and. two years and six months is the remarkable age at which Hugh Keats, of Normanby, died on June .5th, Deceased was born in .Belfast, Ireland, and came to Canada 80 years ago, settling first in Peter- boro', but has lived most of those years in Normanby. Government Inquiring. Oorrespondencd has been going on between officials of the immigration• department in Ottawa and ofileials of United States immigration depart- mentregarding the case of Mrs. W, Harem, of Rose, New York,, daughter of J, W. Cooper, of Clinton, Ont., who was refused admission to- the United States on her return trip from Clinton to Rose about a month ago. The re- fusal was based on her unwillingness to pay the head tax, A Chance For Our Enemies. Another terror menaces humanity.. A celebrated physician has discovered that speckled trout are impregnated with cancer germs in countless mil- lions and are liable to inoculate any human being who devours them with the dread disease. That doctor evi- dently lives near a trout stream that he desires to monopolize. In the in- terest of science we are willing to ex- periment on any speckled beauties that our friends or enemies care to bring in, Be regular in feeding the poultry. This is a good rule with regard to live stock of all kinds. Fowls seem exceedingly grateful for the gift of. cold. water. They never swallow a drop of its without turning up their eyes to heaven. Farmers often think it is more ex- pensive to keep pure bred fowls. In fact it costs no more to keep them than mongrels, and the income is larger. If it is light, dry, and windproof the house will prove good for poultry, no matter whether it measures up to modern ideas of poultry architecture or not. In winter, when the brooding is over, a pile of leaves or straw should be put in the poultry house to make the hens scratch on stormy days, and cabbage placed there for them to eat. The old idea that close, shut -up houses are best, is fast passing away. Poultry must have fresh air to be healthy, and healthy hens are the only ones that bring in the money. Sour milk and buttermilk are excel- lent food for all kinds of poultry, es- pecially turkeys, ducks, and geese. When thickened with shorts, bran, or meal, it is a very nourishing diet for young fowls. As fat turkeys are apt to contract bumble foot by roosting on high per- ches, the roosts should receive some attention. Two feet from the ground is a convenient height, and they should be from two to three feet apart. Poultry must be bred to lay eggs. The fancier loses sight of that purpose. A show bird really should have one more requirement -namely, that it be an egg producer. This would greatly help in the upbuilding of the poulti y trade. THE NOTED STOCK HORSE "MAITLAND" Son of Demo, No. 4306, will be at Lepard'e Hotel stables, Wingham, every Tuesday night daring the season. That Maitland is a genuine stook horse goes without saying. Many of his colts having gone to the city at long pric- es, having size, breeding and action, which goes to make up the harness horse. Farmers and others intending to brim their mares to a light horse should see this stallion before using any other. JOHN N. SANBORN, Wroxeter P. 0.

The women of Walkerton are up in arms -not in the arms of their hus- bands or sweethearts, but in arms against cigarette dealers who sell the coffin -nails to small boys under 16. The movement originated with the . W. C. T. U., who on behalf of the mothers of the town, are endeavor- ing to save the boys from the blight- ing evil of nicotine poisoning. In fut- ure any boy under the age limit found smoking a cigarette will be prose- cuted in the courts and be obliged to tell where he got the weed, Will Celebrate In 1910. At a meeting of the South Perth Orange Lodge officers it was decided that the big Orange celebration in prospect for this year in Stratford should be held over until July 12, 1910, This decision was in view of the fact that the North Perth Lodge had pro- mised to celebrate elsewhere before the Stratford invitation was received and it was felt to be wisdom to devote early and energetic efforts next year for a monster celebration in the Clas- sic City on the glorious Twelfth in 1910, rather than have a smaller "walk" this year. Hair Caught In The Machine. One day last week Mabel Pearson; the 7 -year-old daughter of John Pear- son of Grand Valley, met with a pain- ful accident at the residence of Jas. Pearson, where she has been residing at Glencross. The little girl was operating a cream separator and in some way her hair, which was hang- ing loosely, got caught in the shaft and was wound around it. Before the machine could be stopped nearly ail the hair on one aide of her head was pulled Out with a portion of the sca.p. The attending doctor does not think there will be any permanent disfigure- ment. t e, "C A.F:ED PLACES, Are your feet. hot, sore and blistered? If so, try Zajn-Buk.

It is easily recognized by the dry cough and hoarseness, Not difficulty to cure with Catarrhozone as Mr. Xavier Rabin, of River Capelin, Quo,, proved. "No one could suffer from bronchitis more than I did. I had a hard hacking cough that caused me great pain. My throat was hoarse, and I had great distress in my chest, Catarrhozone reached the sore spots and gave immediate relief. Since us- ing it I have not had a single attack." Every physician who is asked about Catarrhozone says it is a sure (lure, so will you if you try it. Sold every- where, and $1. Exceeded Their Duty.
