Late For Maple Syrup.
News of a strange phenomenon has
reached the Experimental farm au-
thorities at Ottawa from Commanda,
south of Lake Nipissing. A farmer
and his two sons were out hunting,
when in cutting maple wood for fuel
it was noted that the sap was running.
The farmer owns a Large sugar bush,
and decided to tap a number of trees,
with the result that 100 gallons of the
fine syrup were made between Oct.. 26
and the first week of November.
$8o,000 For Goderich,
The Dominion estimates contain an
item of $80,000 for Goderich harbor
improvements. Thisno' doubt means
a beginning on the breakwater ex-
tension to protect the entrance
against the Northwest winds, which a
Goderich deputation, aided by repre-
sentatives of Stratford, Guelph, etc.,
including the Mayor of Stratford, urg-
ed upon the Minister of Marine and
Fisheries last season.

Cured of severe compound
cold and cough by -
enol
"From Dec. 20,'08, to March 1,'09,
1 had three bad colds, one on top of the
other. 1 got so weak 1 could hardly
get around. Nothing seemed to help
me until 1 began to take Vinol. The
, change was magic. Three bottles coma
vete:, pletely fixed that compound cold and
t.'',F r„+t ,r1- ? stopped tate terrible cough—and what
I0' evil, 6
- '�surprises nae most, at the same time
!” it cured me of a severe stomach trouble
that has bothered i e for 20 years.
Vinol Is certainly a wonderful medicine."
Mr. Toppan is one of Lynn's most prominent and highly respected
Inerchants, whose word is as good as his bond.
The reason Vinol is so successful in such cases is because it
contains the two mdst world -famed tonics—the medicinal, strength-
en, body-building elements of Cod Liver Oil and Tonic Iron.

What Is Itch Dirt ?
It is the old Anglo-Saxon name for
Dandruff and it's a good one. If you
have dandruff you have itch dirt and
the little microbes that are part and
parcel of dandraff are working persis-
tently night and day and sooner or
later will reach the very life of your
hair and destroy its vitality.
Then you will be bald—bald to stay
—for not even the wonderful rejuven-
ating properties in Parisian Sage can
grow hair after the hair bulb or root
is dead. Parisian Sage cures Dand-
ruff. Walton McKibbon, the drug-
gist, sells it, recommends it and gua-
x4r,ntees it ; only 50c a large bottle and
your money back if it fails to cure
dandruff, falling hair and itching of

The Home Journal.
"Canadians need not go far afield in
search for a good family journal while
we have such a publication as our
own Horne Journal. I know that the
Ladies' Home Journal has a circula-
tion in Canada, but the Home Journal
covers quite as many topics in' less
space. The covers are an artistic de-
light and are equal to those of the
Saturday Evening Post, whish is fine
praise. Jean Graham, the editor, is
one of the finest women journalists in
all Canada, a woman whose writings
have been appreciated in the New
York press tine and time again,
whose work is known and appraised
in the Southern States, and to whom
the New York Sun has more than once
referred in a very complimentary
manner. Why, then, do we not pat-
ronize our own wares? Why • has it
been said of Toronto—and you know
how I love my own city-- that
she never yet appreciated her own
magazines and publications ? This I do
not believe—yet I have heard it said
—and you may depend on it, it was
hotly contradicted."—'("Kit," in Mail
and Empire.)

Death From Accident.
Mrs. Adam Scott of Fordwich was
fatally injured at her home on Sun-
day night, Nov. 21st. Mrs. Scott, ac-
companied by her son, Addie, had just
returned from a trip to Manitoba. On
the night in question she hacl gone up-
stairs to prepare the bed for Addie.
She informed him from upstairs that
she had left some goose Boil for him to
apply for a sore throat, and that the
bed was ready for him. Scarcely
were the words spoken, when Addie
heard his mother fall down the stairs.
Her head and face were terribly injur-
ed and the unfortunate woman died
the following day, Her husband died
a few months ago.
Cement Prices Soaring.
The Toronto Star says :--Another
boost in the price of Cement is ex-
pected, Recently by reason of the
cement merger, it was raised 15 cents
per barrel, and now another jump is
on the cards, Mayor Olivet has re-
ceived a letter from the Union of Oa,
nadian Municipalities, asking the ac-
tive support of the City in fighting the
proposed increase. The speech froln
the throne at the opening of leariia-
nsent foreshadowed the introduction
of abill to make more effective the
present taw against combinations
which raise prices. The municipali-
ties will Yeeleome this bill and support
it. A protninent Toronto architect
told The Star that the prime object of
snaking the merger was to boost the
prier) of Cement. It had boon selling
as low as DO cents pet' bat'rel, which
price was creeping. 'close to actual cost,
"Now the price is about $1,20, and I
expect that before long they will have
It up to $2," ha said,

An Eyeball Operation.
At Woodstock hospital recently, Dr.
Welford performed the delicate oper-
ation of sewing up a man's eyeball
which had been gashed deeply across
the pupil. Edwin Wettlaufer of
Bright was moving ashelf in his store
when 'ib came towards him suddenly
and a sharp corner struck one of his
eyes. For several days he paid no
attention to the injury, but finally
sought medical advice, with the re-
sult that the operation was performed
with much success, it is believed. IIad
the operation not been performed,
there is no doubt that Mr. Wettlaufer
would have completely Iost the sight
of the eye, but it is thought now that
he will retain at least partial use of
the organ. Three stitches were in-
serted to close the wound.
Coal 011 In Well. '
Another outrage is reported on the
farm of Mrs. Cawthorp, 9th con., Ca-
radoc. This time a quantity of coal
oil has been thrown in the well,
Within the last few weeks her barn
has been burned and poison put in the
well, She knows of no reason for any
person's enmity. In addition, some
implements, which had been saved
and which were left securely locked in
Clement Fisher's barn, nearby, were
stolen, the nuts and bolts of his bug-
gy loosened so that the vehicle would
collapse, and, it is suspected, a quanti-
ty of pears poisoned. It had been in-
tended to have the latter analyzed at
Toronto, but the expense ($200) was
too great. A private detective spent
several days there last week, but
found no clues,

"My baby had a rash some-
thing like eczema. It caused the
child great pain and made it very
restless and ill. The rash spread very
quickly, and I was at a loss what to
do next, for all the remedies I tried. failed to
give the little one ease. A friend strongly advised me to
try Zana -Bok, and I did. That proved good and gave the
baby ease very quickly. T went on with the treatment,
and by the time the- third box was used, all traces of the
rash had gone."
So says Mrs. J. Reesor, of Aurora, and scores of mothers could
make practically the same statement. If your child suffers from teeth-
ing rash, eczema, chafing, or any of tho numerous skin troubles to
which young children aro victims, apply Zam-Buk.
'Zam,-Buie has the great merit of being pure. When you put an
ointment on to your child's skin it finally gets into the blood through
the pores just as surely as if -you put it into the child's stomach, So
don't you see, how important it is the balm should be pure 1 Zam-Buk
is made from pure herbal. essences. It contains no animal fat,, no
mineral coloring, no poisonous, burning antiseptic, It soothes quickly,
and heals Surely. Send us lc. stamp and we will mail you trial box free,

Toronto. Saturday Night,.
L'oronto Saturday Night has been
enlarged to a thirty-two page paper,
divided into two sections of sixteen
pages each. The first section will deal
with manly things from a manly point
of view, while the second section of
sixteen pages will be devoted to wo-
men, embracing all toples of interest
to womankind. A lady of experience
and ability will take charge of
this section. The enlarging of the pa-
per to thirty-two pages will admit of
many new departments not hitherto
incorporated to Toronto Saturday
Night, while the old departments will
in no wise be changed or altered, as
we judge and we hope rightly, that, as
now conducted, they meet the require-
ments of the reading public. Both
sections will be fully illustrated, while
the different new departments, such
as "City and Oountry Hotnes," "Fash-
ions for Women," "Ideas in Dress"
(for men), will be written by experts
and will, like the entire paper, be fully
illustrated, Send for a sample copy.
The subscription price is $3 per year,
postpaid.
A Christmas Box That Is
Worth While,
When you make a present of a peri-
odical to a friend or family you are
really selecting ,a companion to in-
fluence them for good or ill during a
whole year, . If. the acquaintances—of
your eons and daughters were to talk
to them alqud as some periodicals
talk to them silently, how quickly you
would forbid the companionship 1 In
the one case as in the other, the best
coarse is to supplant the injurious
with something equally attractive and
at the same time "worth while." A
food can be wholesome and utterly
distasteful. Reading can be made so,
too. But The Youth's Companion not
only nourishes the mind, bub delights
it, just like that ideal human associ-
ate whom you would choose. The
Youth's Companion fills that place
now in more than half a million
homes. Can you not think of another
family in which it is not now known
where it would be joyfully welcomed ?
If the $2 for the 1910 Volume is sent
now, the new Canadian subscriber will
be entitled to all the remaining issues
of 1909. If desired, the publishers will
hold these back and send thein at
Christmas tiine, together with the
Christmas Number and The Com-
panion's new "Venetian" Calendar for
1010, Lithographed in thirteen colors
and gold,

A Minister Pined.
A Smith's Falls boy Was abusing a
smaller Ltd when Rev, Mr, Stobo,
Baptist minister, was passing by,
Mr. Stebo pulled the big boy off and
lectured him for taking.advantago of
the smaller boy, The lad turned on
the minister and assailed hire in the
tnost flail and blasphemous language,
Mr. Stobo thereupon took hold of him
and, putting him across his knee, ad.
roti:iztered a sound spanking. The
boy went off blubbering. Later on,
information was sworn out against
the minister for assaulting the boy,
The Stnith's Falls magistrate deelinecl
to act and Henry Taylor went from
Perth to adjudicate. He decided that
in spanking the boy the minister had
taken the law into his own hands, and
therefore should be 151nnished, inflict-
ing a fine of $3 and Costs, or $0
in all,
