harm, right at home,

Mrs. Mary Gillespie, who died re-
cently in Denver hospital at the age
of 80, was the mother of fifteen pair
of twins.,At 80 years of age, she con-
tracted tberculosis, but all signs of
that disappeared while at the Colo-
rado hospital, and she might have
lived much longer had she not fallen
and broken her thigh. So reports the
physician of the Denver County Hos-
pital.
The Ayton Advance man desires to
transplant a local poet from Gleneden
to Heaven. He does not propose to
use violence, but depends. altogether
on moral suesion. He promises the
poet a pair of wings and free access
through the pearly gates. Nov the
"poet" wants a guarantee that the
editor will "deliver the goods" at their
destination. Such are the troubles of
journalism.
The "Baltic" of the White Star Line
which was launched recently, is de,
scribed as by far the "biggest ship
afloat," Its length is 725 feet, and
although it is not expected that it
will snake more than 17 knots an hour,
the increased steadiness of so huge a
vessel will prove an attraction to
many for whom sea voyages may or-
dinarily be possessed of discomforting
features, A "knot" is a nautical mile
or 0080 feet; 800 feet longer than the
ordinary toile.

Don't Do It.
Don't swallow your false teeth. W.
D. Lee, 30 years old, of Meriden, is
dead, the result of an operation for
the removal of a set of false teeth,
which be swallowed ten days ago,
The teeth were taken from the stom-
ach through the back, but the opera-
tion had been so severe that Lee died
ten minutes after the plate was re-
moved. •
Potatoes.
The wholesale potato men say that
they are beginning to breathe easier
as the crop is much better as the high-
er ground is reached. The Barrie
district is turning out well, a marked
contrast to the lower parts of York
county. East Northumberland re-
ports great damage to the crop from
blight. Mitchell vicinity has potatoes
to spare. In the vicinity of Aurora,
the crop is afailure, front rot.
Predicts A Severe Winter.
According to the prophecy of the
fowl a hard winter is upon us. "For-
est and Stream" says :—"It is said
ducks and other fowl have pin feath-
ers in August when there is to be an
open fall or winter. If they have
down on their breasts it is a sign of a
hard winter. Sportsmen say ducks
already shot this year have been
found to be without pin feathers but
have a full coat of thick brown down
on their' breasts. Hence a hard win-
ter is predicted."
From Manitoba.
Dawson Manners, son of Mr. Geo.
Manners of town, writes the Advance
from Brandon. He says :-"We are
having some fine weather here now
anti nearly time, for the past three
weeks we had rain nearly every day,
consequently the harvest was delayed
and threshing has just begun. There
are scores of men here out of work,
waiting for the threshing to begin, to
earn enough money to get them back
to Ontario again, and the majority of
them think very little of Manitoba,
but I prefer it to Ontario, and intend
to stay, if everything turns out as
bright as it looks at the present."
From Dakota.
Mrs. Cooper (nee Miss Emma Net-
terfield) writes the Advance trom
Westhope, North Dakota. She says:
—" ,` may interest you to hear that
the harvest here is yielding well. I
believe the average is somewhere
from seventeen to twenty bushels per
acre. In this new town, not yet one
year old, we have eight elevators, and
at present the grain is pouring in
front all directions, and going at a
good price. Weather has been all
that cottid be desired the past two
weeks and threshing is moving very
rapidly. We like it here and are at
present •building a new house. The
town grows rapidly and business is
brisk. With kind regards to yourself
and old friends. Yours truly, Emma
Netterfield Cooper."
Quick Work:
At a Farmer's Institute meeting,
held at the. farm of Geo, R. Barrie,
near Galt, some tune ago, wheat was
threshed and ground in the afternoon
and part of it made into cakes for the
evening meal. That was considerable
of a feat : but our English cousins
have beaten us. At Blockey, in Wor-
cestershire, it was desired to see how
soon a loaf Could be produced from
standing wheat. The grain was cut,
the sheaves carried to the granary,
threshed and cleaned in six and a
half minutes more. The flour wits
quickly kneaded into loaves and cakes,
and at nine o'clock, or in had an hour
from the time the cutting began, it is
declared, seven small cakes were
ready to be taken frotu the oven.
In forty minutes the larger loaves
sent
were baked, and one wasto the
King."
Serious Complaints.
The Advance has a letter from Mont-
gomery Bros. of Deloraine, Man., com-
plaining. that in a carload of apples
bought for best stock, there was in
each barrel a pailful or more of the
worst trash imaginable. These apples
were packed by hien in Wingham and
vicinity, and their names are given in
the letter. A sample of the apples
also his been sent us. The writer of
the letter says that these apples have
given Winghatn an unenviable name
in that vicinity, and the merchants
have decided to have nothing more to
do with Wingham apples until they
are convinced that honest packers are
at work. The Advance regrets to hear
this, and hopes that if such practices
have been in vogue, they will cease.
From the names given in the letter,
we are Surprised to hear that the ap-
pies were not as represented. The
letter concludes thus—"We have no
doubt there are honest packets in your
vicinity, but the dishonesty of the
men who packed these apples, has pre-
judiced other merchants as well as
ourselves against having anything
more to do With them.°

Auction Sale, Oct. 19.
3. J. Elliott, V, S., purposes spend-
ing the winter in a milder climate
than Wingham can furnish, and hence
is giving up business. He announces
a bonafide clearing sale of stock, im-
plements, span heavy horses, four
drivers, the stallion, "Prince of Kel-
ton," thirty-eight 2 -year-old steers;,
milch cows, vehicles, etc., etc. This
will be a genuine clearing sale. Re-
member the date, October 19, and
watch for posters giving full list and
particulars.
Student in Charge.
Mr. Arthur Cununer, formerly of
Wingham, who has been residing in
Listowel for the past sixteen months,
has been acting as Lay Reader to the
Church of England in Listowel, and
has had charge of the services at Chip -
ley since last June. Mr. Cummer has
recently been appointed by the Bishop
of Toronto to act as student in charge
of the parish of Pickering, for the year
previous to his entering College. Mr.
Cummer's Wingham friends will be
pleased to hear of his future success.
Mr. Borden's Meeting.
This afternoon (Thursday) Mr. R. L.
Bordenis billed filled to address the electors
in the Town Hall, on the Issues of the
day. Many in this vicinity have never
seen the Conservative Leader, and it
is safe to say that there will be a large
`gathering of East Huron electors to
hear him. Mr. Borden will arrive by
the 1.17 p. m. train, and the Chair will
be taken at 1.30 by P. W. Scott, Presi-
dent of West Huron Liberal -Conserva-
tive Association. Mr. Borden will be
accompanied by his private secretary,
Mr. Blount, and probably Dr. Sproule,
M. iP., for East Grey.
Liberal -Conservative Convention.
The Liberal -Conservatives of East
Huron will meet in Convention, in
Brussels, on Tuesday, October 11, at 2
o'clock in the afternoon. The busi-
ness before the convention will be the
annual election of officers and the
nomination of a candidate for the ap-
proaching election for the House of
Commons. After the business has
been .concluded, the electors will be
addressed by Lieut. -Col. Sam Hughes,
M. P. In the evening, a public meet-
ing will be held at which Col. Hughes
and others will speak on the issues of
the day. There sheuld be a grand
rally to this convention. There is a
generally expressed desire among the
Conservatives of the riding, that Dr.
T. Chisholm should be the candidate,
and if the doctor consents, it is almost
a certainty that he will receive not
only a unanimous nomination, but
the enthusiastic support of the Liberal -
Conservative electors of the riding, in
the contest that is now begun.

SUCCESSFUL UL FALL FAIR -
Increase in Entries, Attendance and Receipts at the North-
Western Fair held in Wingham last Friday,
Wingham Fall Fair held on Thurs.
day and Friday last was a success,
The officers and directors have every
reason to be gratified with the results
in the aggregate. They made praise-
worthy efforts for a good Fair, 'and
their efforts were crowned with suc-
cess, and with one exception (which
we may refer to later) they have rea-
son to look hack on the Fair of 1904 as
one of the best in the history of the
society—that is if attendance, mem-
bership, entries and -,eceipts are evi-
dence, and this none can deny.
Thursday forenoon proved discour-
aging, for a deluge of rain made the
prospects dismal, Towards noon the
weather cleared, but the heavy rain
prevented many of the exhibits from
arriving for the inside. The wonder
was that as much fancy work was
safely brought in. The result of the
wet forenoon was seen in a smaller in-
side exhibit than usual. The dairy,
fruit and Ladies' Work departments
were well represented, and contained
some excellent productions.
A pleasing feature of the inside
(pleasing because intensely practical)
was the presence of a representative
of the Women's Institute, Mrs. Colin
Campbell of Goderich, who gave prac-
tical demonstration in Cooking, The
interest taken in this, and the ques-
tions asked and recipes copied were
evidence that the information gained
will be put into practical use.
The Western Foundry Co. of Wing -
ham had on display specimens of their
stoves, ranges and a "Red Hot" Hur-
on Furnace. These received thorough
examination by many of the visitors.
The stock exhibit was fair; in
horses, it was larger than usual, and
there were some very fine animals.
The expert judges were :—For hors-
es—Jas. Cromarty, Galt; for dairy
cattle and sheep—Wm. Laidlaw, Wil-
ton Grove ; beef cattle and hogs—J.
McCallum, Shakespeare.
The "special attractions" consisted
of the Speeding in the ring, perform-
ances by the Bondo Troupe, and exhi-
bitions of horsemanship and sword
drill by the Mounted Troopers from
Stanley Barracks, Toronto. The squad
consisted of Sergt,-Major Brooker,
Corporal Longueil, Ptes. Buchannan,
London and Dunne, all of the perma-
nent Canadian corps, Stanley Bar-
racks, Toronto. Their manoeuvres
were quite interesting, showing vari-
ous cavalry formations, musical ride,
sword and lance exercises, charge,
capture, etc. Sergt.-Major Brooker
stated that the horses best suited for
cavalry purposes were about thirteen
hundred pounds weight, of any rich
color, and about 15.3 hands high. A
white horse would not be purchased
under any circumstances, The trim
appearance of the men, horses and
equipment was a subject of general
continent. These attractions intro-
duced between the speeding events
made a pleasing variety.
The double -hitching contest was
quite interesting and also amusing.
The winners were :-1st, John Kelly ;
2nd, J. B. Tyreman; 3rd, R. Scott.
Presentation.
A very pleasant time was spent at
"Woodland," the residence of Mr.
John Kerr, on Thursday evening last.
As Miss Hattie Reid was about to
leave Winghant to prepare herself for
the work of Deaconess, the choir of
the Methodist church and her class in
the Sunday school gathered at Mr.
Kerr's to spend the evening with Miss
Reid before her departure. After a
pleasant bout. had beer' spent, and a
program enjoyed, Miss Reid was pre-
sented with a Silver service, on be-
half of the choir and Sunday school
class, Mr. Morton, the choir leader,
reading the following address :—
Miss HATTIE RRtn •—•
The Members of the choir and also of your
Sunday School class have learned with very
great regret of your removal from our midst.
For many years you have faithfully and ac-
ceptably performed the duties of soloist in
connection with the choir of our church, as-
sisting in the service of song, to the pleasure
and profit of the congregation, in one of the
most delightful exereses connected with the
worship of God. Your presence and valuable
assistance, so freely and cheerfully rendered,
will be much missed by your comrades in the
choir and else, by the whole congregation.
Not loss important have been your services as
teacher of a young ladies' clans in tbo Sunday
School,. where for years you have impressed
and guided the thought and religious life of
those committed to your care. Many who
have gone out from your class to distant le -
entities, have carried with them the gracious
influences which have been awakened by
your untiring efforts, while those who still re-
main will ever cherish with gratitude your
kindly, earnest and faithful efforts on their
behalf. Our prayers and benedictions will fol-
low you in your future career, and we trust
that amid the multipilaity of duties incident
to the increased responsibilities of yottr future
life you will not forgot the many happy hours
which you have enjoyed with us in our church
work in Winghani. We ask your acceptance
of this Silver Tea Service as a small token of
our esteem end love. Believe ue, when we
assure you that it is accompanied with the
deepest feelings of true affection and regard.
J. A. Mort ni oil behalf of Choir
M.R. Hammond, on behalf of Class
Miss Reid has been a valued member
of the choir for many years, and an
appreciated teacher in the Sunday
school. As Superintendent of the
Junior League she took a very active
interest in its welfare, and the Juniors
recognized her work in that depart-
ment by presenting her with a Gold
Watch, Miss Reid will be much miss-
ed in these departments of church
work, As teacher also ill the Public
school she discharged her duties faith-
fully and with acceptance. Icer
Winghatn friends hope for her future
success in the line of christian work
she purposes preparing herself for,
She left on Monday morning for
Toronto to attend the 1)eaco11ees'
Training School,
The Speeding events were well con-
ducted and were excellent exhibitions
of speed. No accident occurred to
mar the success of the afternoon. Fol-
lowing are the results ;-

Tun EVENING CONCERT.
There was a good attendance at the
concert on Friday evening. The direc-
tors thought they had secured satis-
factory entertainment for the evening
and certainly should have had some-
thing good for the price they paid.
They selected the Troupe on recom-
mendations from others they had
hoped to secure. There was dissatis-
faction with the entertainment the
Co. gave, and none regret the disap-
pointment more than the officers of
the Society. They extend to'the pub-
lic their regrets, and for next year
will look out in time, and demand
positive assurance as to the kind of
entertainment to be furnished, so that
disappointment shall not occur again.
NOTES.
The total receipts were in advance
of any previous year.
The grand stand receipts were $40
in advance of last year.
The membership of the Society is
100 greater than in 1903.
H. B. Elliott was attentive and effi-
cient in discharge of his duties as Sec-
retary,
The Directors discharged their
duties faithfully and are pleased with
the results.
President Moffat was a busy man,
and discharged his duties faithfully
and well. He worked hard for the
success of the Fair.
The entries show an increase of 257
over last year, but the wet forenoon
on the first day prevented much of
the inside exhibit from arriving.
Wingham Citizens' Band rendered
selections at intervals, and their music
helped materially to make the after-
noon's program enjoyable to the visi-
tors.
Let there be no slackening of effort,
until Wingham Fall Fair leads them
all. The Advance has always con-
tended that the best fair in the county
might be Wingham Fair.
The rain on Thursday morning and
the quality and quantity of the con-
cert program were the disappointing
features of the Fair. The former could
not be prevented, and the Directors
will take care that the latter does not
occur again.
Season Has Opened.
The fall dressing season has opened ;
we have anticipated the needs of the
ladies of Wingham and vicinity, and
are ready. Our dressmaking depart-
ment is wide open, and already orders
are being quickly booked. Miss
Slade, of Galt, is in charge of an
experienced staff and will be pleased
to await your order. Satisfaction as-
sured. A call solicited.
ALEX. RITCHIE.
A Change Desired.
At the last meeting of the Councils
of Kinloss and Ashileld, a motion was
unanimously passed, in favor of going
back to the old system of having the
municipalities represented in the Co.
Council by the heads of their Councils.
Morris, East Wawanosh and Wing -
ham are also in lines and it begins to
look as if a change was desired.
Business Change.
Mr, S. Youhill has disposed of his
real estate and insurance business to
Mr. A. Cosens. The patrons of Mr.
Youhill may rest assured their busi-
ness will receive prompt and careful
attention from Mx. Cosens, whose
long experience in these lines, is :t
guarantee of proper discharge of all
.tatters entrusted to his care. Watch
for change of Mr. Coseti s advt. next
issue.
A Turdberry Student.
Mr. Prank Powell, son of Mr. T. IC.
Powell of Turnberry, has been supply-
ing the pulpit of St. John's Church,
Brussels, for the past five months,
daring the illness of the incumbent,
Rev. Mr. Webb, and preached his
farewell sermon last Stmtlay evening,
The Brussels Post says x. --";lir. Powell
returns to College and expects to
graduate in Arts next May. Mr.
Powell is a great worker and will
have a successful future we have no
dottbt, The incumbent expects to be
back here for the services on Sunday,

ST. CATHARINES WELL.
In St. Catharines, the Garden City
of Canada, eleven miles from Niagara
Falls, on the main line of the Grand
Trunk Railway, is situated the his-
toric St. Catharines Well, about which
is woven many a romantic Indian le-
gend, and whose curative properties
are known far anti wide throughout
North America. The water of this
famous Saline Well is considerably
denser than seawater, but clear, spark-
ling anti odorless, and is remarkable
for its penetrative qualities.
These waters are a. great specific for
such diseases as rheumatism, gout,
scrofula, neuralgia, liver troubles, skin
diseases and cases of nervous prostra-
tion, or as a tonic pure and simple.
The treatment is conducted on the
broadest possible lines, the idea being
to assist nature as much as possible.
The use of these waters is the chief
remedial agent, accompanied by Static
electricity, massage, exercise and rest.
All treatment is in charge of house
physicians. The baths are in a sepa-
rate building, connected with main
building by a glass covered corridor.
Full Information, descriptive matter
and all particulars may be had on ap-
plication to J. D. McDonald, District
Passenger Agent, Toronto.

Dominion Bank to manage my busi-
ness anti all owing me on Notes or
