GEORGE PR PEN, Japanese soldiers are fed on rice, salted fish, dried seaweed and pickled plums—a diet that is almost universal to Japan except in the navy, where rations of meat are served.

The purchaser is an industrious and steady young man, and having been employ- ed at the Market Bakery for the past year, ought to make a success of the business. Elections In September. Long And Hard. On the 18th of March it was four months since sleighing commenced, and by all appearances it will stay with us another month. It is the longest winter that can be remember- ed by the oldest settlers, except the one of 68, which started in October, freezing the apples on the trees, and the potatoes and turnips had to re- main in the ground until the next May, being covered with snow the whole winter through. But this winter for storms and zero weather is the hardest one that was ever known. A. 0. U. W. The Grand Lodge of this Order held its 26th annual meeting in Toronto last week, The resolution to admit women to the privileges of the Order passed by a small majority. On Feb. 18th, 1879, the Grand Lodge A. 0. U. W. of Ontario was organized in Lon- don, with eighteen lodges and about four hundred members, and on August 7th, 1880,7was incorporated. A separate jurisdiction was secured on June 1, 1880, having the requisite 2,000 members, and since then the Ontario Grand Lodge has conducted its own financial affairs and paid its own death losses, etc. In 1879 there were 55 lodges and 1,150 members. At the end of 1903 there were 465 lodges ; total number of certificates issued 69,986; total claims paid, $8,253,358.24. Death rate 9.33 per 1,000 mesabers, Narrow Escape. On Saturday last, one of our respect- ed citizens, Mr. Saml. Youhill, had a very close call for his life. He was looking at a Ioad of wood, which was standing opposite the National Hotel, with the view of buying it, turning around to pass the rear of the sleigh to go to the sidewalk he was con - Ottawa, March 18.—The general im- fronted with a heavy farmers' team going at the rate of fully eight miles an hour, and within 8 feet of Mr. Youhill, There was not time to get out of the danger so he yelled to the driver to stop and at the same time struck the off horse on the nose ; at the same instant the tongue of the sleigh passed under Mr. Youhill's left arm which he tightly gripped, and the pulling up of the team hoisted hint up in the air and carried him several feet. It is almost a miracle that Mr. Youhill received no injury, and he has no de- sire for another such experience. pression in the best informed circles is that the Dominion elections will be pulled off in September if the House prorogues in anything like decent time to permit of it. Dissolution will certainly follow close on the heels of prorogation. March Wedding. Another of our citizens to leave the ranks of the Bachelors is Mr. John Mc- Ewen, who was united in marriage on Wednesday of last week to a young lady living near Attwood. Mr. and Mrs. McEwen have taken up their residence on Mr. McEwen's farm on the 1st line of Morris, Congratula- tions. One of the unexpected consequences of the war is a camphor famine, yet it is now a possibility. The greater part of the world's supply comes from Formosa, a Japanese dependency, As camphor is used largely in the manufacture of explosives, Japan is now husbanding the supply. lienee there has already been a rise in price of more than three hundred per cent. Compared with this increase the wheat fluctuations are infinitesimal. J. L. Jones has been for a quarter of a century editor of 1Tnity (Chicago). In his anniversary number, Mr. Jones remarks Should anyone caro to ivaste imoney for a stone to mark where my dust may rest, the inscrip- tion might run as fondles : "Ile edited Unity for 25 years, and it never paid expenbes." Patrons of newspapers, both subscribers and advertisera, should take a hint from this, and pay the newspaper man cheerfully and promptly.

Miss Seawright is in charge at Miss Boyd's, Miss Irving at Mrs. Aley's, Miss Henderson at Miss Macpherson's, and bliss Haldane of Strathroy at Mrs. Green's. See Miss Boyd's advt, on page 8. Sudden Demise. On Tuesday a telegram was received here from Denver, Colorado, announc- ing the sad intelligence that William Lawrence, son of Mr. Chas. Lawrence of Belgrave and brother of Mrs. Irwin Pattison of town, had passed away on Monday from an attack of typhoid fever. For the past few months de- ceased was seemingly in his usual good health, but for a year previous to that time had been poorly, the result of a severe attack of bronchitis and pneu. moria. By the tone of his letters and reports received from friends who have lately seen hint, his relatives hero were pleased that his prospeetd were good for complete restoration to MARCH 24, 1904. $1.0O PER YEAR IN A.DYANOE Pleasant Surprise. Last week the friends of the White church appointment of the Methodist church kindly remembered their pastor, Rev. 0, O. Keine, by giving him a liberal supply of oats. Mr, Keine was away from home at the time, and on his return was agreeably surprised to find the oat bin full to overflowing, This is the second time this winter that these good-hearted people have acted. thus. Such acts are greatly appreciated. Band Concert, The fourth concert of the Citizens' Band series is dated for Friday even- ing, March 25th, in the Town Hall.

The editor of the Advance received a telephone message on Monday, an- nouncing the death of his father, Rev. Henry Hall, who resided near Ark- wright, Bruce county. Deceased had reached a great age, being in his nicety -sixth year. He was born in England, but came to Canada forty- six years ago. Of late years he has been very feeble in body, but his in- tellect remained clear till the end. He was a remarkable man in many respects. In his youth. he had but very few opportunities of securing an education, , yetby improving ghis spareare moments, he became an expert mathe- matician, a student of astronomy, and conversant with the Greek, Latin, Hebrew and other languages. He witnessed the opening of the first rail- way in England, and prior to leaving the olci. land was chief engineer of con- struction on the Midland railway. When he came to Canada, he entered the ministry of the Methodist Church, or that branch of it then known as the New Connection. His end was peace ; for years he had been looking forward with.a bright hope to the time when age and weakness should give way to eternal health and life immortal, He leaves two sons and two daughters. The editor of this paper left on Tues- day to attend the funeral. Two ad- joining homes on Shuler street, this week have cast upon them the shadow of death. Past Four Score. Mrs. Gotby, an aged resident of Wingham, passed away on Saturday last, at the residence of her netce, Mrs. Amos Tipling, at the advanced age of nearly 83, Deceased was born in the township of Ding. and about sixty pears ago removed to the township of Wellesley, then almost an unbroken forest. There she and her Husband bore their share of the privations that were then the inevitable lot of the pioneers. They remained there until about sixteen years ago, when Mr, Gotby passed over the dark river, Since then, she had found a comfort• able home with her daughters, De- ceased was a devoted mother; her children, now grown to manhood and womanhood, remember the true Young Life Ended. With sincere and deep regeet this entire community heard of the death of our esteemed young townsman, Rowland G. Gordon, son of Mr. and cover a blow aimed at the Advance, Mrs. D. M. Gordon.

A short time ago, he was advised to go to Denver, Colorado; he did go, and while there was taken i11 again, and - on Saturday last, far from relatives and home, passed to his eternal rest. On Friday, Mr. D. M. Gordon received a telegram announcing his son's ill- ness, q, a nd in the absence of train com- munication, started to drive in a blinding storm to Clinton, in the hope of catching a train. He was over- taken at Londesboro by a message, stating that Roland was dead.

The business teen of the rashness, and the next time he coulee THE FACTORY BY-LAW. Our attention has been drawn to the fact, that in our estimates regarding the cost of the loan to Wacker & Clegg, we unintentionally overestimated the cost to the town. For the time being, we lost eight of the fact that the last half of the loan was repayable at the end of the term. The real situation is thus ;—As the whole of the loan is re- payable, all ib will cost the town is the interest ou the Ioan, This is not like- ly to exceed four, or four and one-half per cent, At the outside this would be but $450 annually. The $1200.00 is placed in the By-law to provide sink- ing fund and interest as required by law, $450 on our present assessment will not be more than half a mill on the dollar, or fifty cents annually on an assessment of $1000. Surely no property -bolder will op- pose the By-law. when by the expen- diture of 50 cents per $1000 of assess- ment, a valuable industry is retained, seventy workmen employed, with a resultant distribution in our town of nearly $30,000 in wages annually. This money will find its way back, directly in some cases, indirectly in others, but all tending to further the interests of our town. Every property -holder should sup- port the By-law. To oppose it is to block the way of advancement, and strike a blow at the prosperity of our town, by causing the withdrawal of one of the industries, which are the basis of Wingham's standing as a manufacturing town. One half a mill on the dollar of assessment is a mere trifle compared with the advantages derived. Barn Burned. A barn was burned near Holyrood on Friday last, and our information is to the effect that the incendiary was caught almost in the act, The barn belonged to a farmer named Stan- dish. To Be Remembered. The Forest Free Press says :—It is an old fallacy that a man can do as he likes with his own property. Path - masters occasionally have trouble with farmers who positively decline to permit the public to drive through their fields in the winter or allow their fences to be taken down, Their view is that it is the duty of authorities to keep the legal road open and that not even in the interest of the king ought fences to be destroyed or lands tres- passed upon. This position is perhaps human, but according to the Municip- al World, quite untenable, In answer to a correspondent, who asks, "If the roads are drifted, can parties going along let down fences and drive through the fields ?" That authority replies, "If by reason or obstruction or lack of repair, a highway has be come impassable, travellers may enter upon adjoining lands to obtain a free and safe passage, doing no more dam- age to such land than is necessary under the circumstance, without in- curring any liability as trespassers." CUSTOMS HAVE INCREASED. Three weeks ago, the Advance made a statement to the effect that the ordi- nary expenditure of the Dominion had increased from $7,26 per head in 1896 to $9.30 in 1902. At the Liberal meet- ing here, Robert Holmes, M.

Will anyone tell the how mach customs taxation has been increased under Liberal rule ?" We have already addaced proof from the Government records that our statement was true, but as Mr. Holmes may still bluff, we now produce cor- roborative evidence, not from Con- servative sources, but from a leading - Liberal newspaper, the Winnipeg Tri- bune, a staunch Liberal journal. The Tribune says :— "The amount of customs duties paid per head of population from 1890 to 1903 inclusive, is as follows : 1800 $5 01 1801 4 81 1802 4 20 1803 4 26 180.1 3 56 1803 3 52 1896 3 04 1897 3 83 1808 4 22 1809 484 1900 5 37 1001 40 1002 5 94 1901 ti 76 In 180506 we remember flow the Con- servatives were slated for havingin- creased the Customs taxation rom 53.13 per bead in 1878 to 54.84 in 1891, Where do old Liberals find themselves to -day, when an administration sailing under Liberal colors has raised the Customs taxation to a point far be- tond Witt hi anything ofhe in couhe ntry ?"ass high The statement of the Advance has thus been corroborated from an tinea• pected source.
