.ansunin0 mss.
One of the leading New 'fork papers
bemoans the etnigration from the
United States to. Canada, and says ;---
Practically 60,000 Americans gloved
ae.oss the border last year to make
their homes in Canada. .It is estimat-
ed officially that this year the number
will exceed 75,000, Should that pre-
diction be fulfilled, as it probably will
be, it will mean that in eight years we
shall have lost and Canada will have
gained 400,000 good citizens.
These people are not mere work
seekers. Most of them are home mak-
era. .An Amoriean Consul in Oauacla
says of them that a very large per
cent. are well-to-do farmers, who at
once establish their strong personality
and ally themselves with the best and
highest interests of the locality and
country to which they go. He says
that the total wealth which they
bring amounts to many millions of
dollars. It is officially estimated that
the 68,812 Americans who moved to
Canada during the Canadian fiscal
year ending March 81, 1908, took with
them money and effects of a value of
$52,000,000. This is for Canada the
most valuable and for us the least de-
sirable of all our exports to the Do-
minion.
Within eight years wo have lost to
Canadian people enough to make a
city with a population numerically
equal to that of Cleveland, greater
than that of Buffalo or San Francisco,
almost equal to that of Cincinnati
with Albany added to it, almost equal
to that of Washington and New
Haven combined. To these there
should be added an unknown number
of Canadians of longer or shorter resi-
dence in the United States, sons and
daughters of the Dominion, who have
gone home to share in and to advance
the prosperity of their own country.

What might have been quite a
serious accident happened on Sunday
evening opposite Mr. Wylie's place on
the gravel road near the lake shore.
A automobile occupied by Mr. Henry
of Kincardine and a party of four
others went wrong on a steep hill and
became unmanageable. The machine
backed down the hill an 1 over the em-
bankment and finally landed upside
down in the creek at the bottom. The
occupants all jumped in time to save
themselves, thus undoubtedly saving
themselves from very serious injury
or possibly death.
Howick.
Johnny Montgomery, son of Jno.
Montgomery, sr., has suffered much
pain from an abscess on the leg caused
by being struck by the wagon tongue
about ten days ago.
Mr. B. S. Cook of Fordwich is re-
covering from the severe attack of ap-
pendicitis which struck him so and-
denly in the church on Sunday even-
ing, Aug. 20th.
Tidings were received here on Mon-
day of the passing away at Niagara
Falls of Mrs. Harry Tonge. She went
to the hospital for surgical treatment
for cancer and did not survive the
operation.
The following are the winners in
the Standing Field Crop Competition

The most cordial sympathy of the
community is extended to Mr. and
Mrs. Edward Galbraith of Orange
Hill in the loss of their son Harold,
who passed away at their residence on
the 10th con„ Howick, on Thursday
morning of last week. Following so
soon upon the death of his baby sister,
Elsie, whose sudden demise in Feb.
last Ieft a great vacancy in the home,
this double bereavement will be keen-
ly felt. Howard was an interesting
youth of some fifteen years, a bright
boy of thoughtful disposition and a
general favorite among his. com-
panions.
A miraculous Escape.
Frotn the Grand Forks, N. 1)., Daily

escape of the family of 3, F. McDonagh
of 0ateke, Minn., brother of Mr. Chas.
McDonagh of Ashfield, Mr, MeDon-•

sietere, seven persons in all, no one was
seriously injured, A part of the house
was torn to pieces, and over forty
trees close by were torn to pieces by
the fury of the storm,—(Lnoknow

A Valuable Watch.
The Bruce Herald says :--The J.
Player referred to in the following
item from a Toronto paper is a brother
of Mr. Richard Player of Walkerton.
"A watch 21 inches in diameter,
which shows what constellations . are
visible at any moment, the relative
positions of the sun and moon, the
season, the times of sunset, sunrise
and high tide, and the time of day,
in addition to striking the hours and
quarters, has been made by Messrs. J.
Player and: eon, of Coventry, England.
It took four years to make, and is
valued at $5,000,"

Another Sharper Caught.
The Clifford Express relates the
following :—A young man wearing
spectacles, who spent a good part of
the summer around here selling
stereopticon views, was arrested by
Constable Cyrus Horton at Thornbury,
and brought back to Howick on a
charge of getting money on false pre-
tenses in some transactions with a
Howick farmer. Before Magistrate
F. Dixon, the young man was sent up
to Godericb, Huron County, for trial.
The country is just flooded with ped-
dlers and fakirs, and notwithstanding
all the warnings in the newspapers,
people still continue to patronize the
smooth tongued tramps and get gulled
nearly always.
Horse Frightened To Death.
The Clinton News -Record gives the
following :—"Topsy," the favorite
driver in Mr. J. W. Elliott's livery
barn and for which the proprietor 'had
refused $225, was frightened to death
by a Goderich automobile about nine
o'clock on Monday night. "Topsy"
was a high-strung, nervous animal
with a perfect dread of an auto and as
one of our citizens was returning
home along the Huron Road west of
Holmesville, the headlights of a ma-
chine were seen approaching. After
looking in vain for a concession or
open lane down which he might turn,
the driver hastily led the mare into a
fence corner. The occupants of the
auto realized the situation as they ap-
proached and crept past as quietly as
possible and went on their way.
"Topsy" was all this time in a tremble
and when led back to the road she
reared and fell back, and with a shiver
or two was dead --frightened to
death.
Doctors Fear Tonsilitis Otttbreak.
Hnndreds of cases are reported. If
your throat is irritable and sore, gar-
gle it three times daily with Nerviline
and water. Then rub the throat and
chest vigorously with Nerviline and
put on a Nerviline Porous Plaster.
Follow these instructions closely and
you will avoid Tonsilitis, Bronchitis
and Throat Trouble of every kind.
Hundreds are preventing and curing
their colds by this method and report
it eminently satisfactory. Both • Ner-
viline Plasters and Polson's Nerviline

In 81 hours, one day last week, Geo..
Schiestel threshed 1850 bushels of
grain, wheat, oats and peas, for Mr.
Wm. Kelly, 2nd line west.
A keel option campaign is now on
in this village, and a vote will probab-
ly be taken in January.' Large and
attentive congregations greeted Mr.
Benj, H. Spence of Toronto, Secretary
of the Dominion Alliance for the sup-
pression of the Liquor Traffic, in his
addresses Sunday, Aug. 29th, at the
Presbyterian and Methodist churches.
The congregations united for these
services.
The 30th anniversary of the Tees -
water Methodist Church will be fit-
tingly celebrated on Sunday, Sept.
19th, and Tuesday, 21st. Rev. A. I.
Birks of London, a former pastor, and
now President of the London bon-
ference, will be the preacher of the
day. The anniversary banquet will be
a special affair. The menu will be
provided by the Shredded Wheat Co.
of Toronto in their choice and delight-
ful style. The, banquet will be follow`-
ed by the anniversary entertainment.
Preparations are being made for one
of the largest gatherings in the his•
tory' of the church.

The World's Population.
The present population of the earth,
estimated at 1,487 millions, is distri-
buted very unevenly. The average
density of the entire land surface of
the globe is shod 81 inhabitants per
square mile. This total land surface,
which slightly exceeds 48 million
square miles, is composed of 28 million
square miles of fertile land, 14 million
square miles of steppes, and 4 million
square miles of deserts. Ravenstein
estimates the maximum density of
population that can be supported by
the fertile regions at 207 persons per
square mile, and thus (allowing 14
persons per square anile to the steppe
regions) obtains 5,091 millions as the
maximum population of the globe.
The present rate of increase per decade
is 8i% in Europe, 0% in Asia, 10% in
Africa, 80% in Australia and Oceania,
20% in North .America, and 15% in
South America. The mean rate of in-
crease for the whole earth is 8% per
decade. At this rate of increase the
earth would be completely tilled with
ate maximum population 'of 5,994 mil-
lions in the year 2072, or in 188 years
