A mistake on the part of Jas. Mellwain,.
a farmer of Goderich township, caused
his untimely death Thursday. About a
week previous Mcllwain drank a mix-
ture of some Gillett's lye and other
material in mistake for buttermilk.
The lye stood in the cupboard beside
the buttermilk, in a dish similar to that
which held the buttermilk. He leaves
a wife and family of several children.

HOW/CR.
One of the pioneers of Howick town-
ship in the person of John Underwood,
passed to the Great Beyond on Thurs-
day morning, May llth, at the resid-
ence of his son-in-law, C. W. Simmons,
of Howick. The deceased was born in
North Alton, England, in the year 1832.
He came to this country about 60 years
ago, locating first at Berlin, then a
village, afterwards in Wellsley town-
ship. Then about the year 1871 he
came to the Township of Howick and
settled on the farm now occupied by
his son, James. Mr. Underwood re-
tired from farming about fifteen years
ago, living most of this time near
Wroxeter. Mrs. Underwood predecea-
sed her husband four years last March.
Four sons, Joseph, of Lakelet, George,
of Turnberry; Wm. and Jas., of Ho -
wick; and two daughters, Mrs. William
Cook, of Lakelet, and Mrs. C. W. Sim-
mons, of Howick, are left to mourn the
loss of a dear father. The deceased
was highly respected by all, who had
the pleasure of his acquaintance.
CIYLROSS.
Fire at2 o'clock on Tuesday morning,
May 16th, destroyed the largest imple-
ment shed on the farm of the late John
McKenzie, Con. 4, now being rented
from the estate by John McKenzie, jr.
The fire was first noticed by Mrs. Mc-
Kenzie after it had gained such head-
way that nothing could be done to stop
it or get anything out of the building.
The building is about 100 feet long and
40 feet wide and constituted at one
time the main barn, belore the present
barn was .erected. It is situated to the
east and south of the house and about
ten years ago was fitted up ingood
shape by Mr. Alex. D. McKenzie, who
had the farm rented from his father.
He fitted up a room at the west end
for a workshop, next came the buggy
house and machinery room. In the bal-
ance was fitted out hog and sheep pens
and a poultry house. All the machin-
ery, with the exception of a land roller
which Mr. McKenzie had drawn out the
evening previous to be in readiness for
the next day's work, was destroyed.
Two calves and about 100 hens were
victims of the flames.
AN INVALUABLE MEDICINE.
Mrs. W. Arnold, Edmonton, Alta.,
writes:—"Kindly send me a box of
Baby's Own Tablets, They have been
invaluable. to me and I really do not
know how I ever would have got along
without them. Baby was poorly; his
digestion was bad and he was consti-
pated,
a a fine hve ealthy boy e Tablets
of him
Now, whenever he is cross or troubled
with constipation, I always give him
the Tablets and they relieye him right
away. I tried a lot of other medicine
but nothing seemed to agree with him
till I got the Tablets. I would not be
without them." The testimony of Mrs,
Arnold is that of thousands of other
mothers. Everyone who ever uses
Baby's Own Tablets have words of
praise for them. The Tablets are sold
by medicine dealers or b mail at 25
cents a box from The pr. Williams'
Medicine Co„ Brockville, Ont.

THE REASON FOR IT,
MORRIS,
Ralph Shaw, 2nd line, who is attend-
ing Normal at Stratford, is a member
of the school football team, playing on
the forward line.
Mrs. Frank Kerney has been in St.
Marys for the past couple of weeks
owing to the serious illness of her
mother, whom we hope will soon be
better.
Following officers were elected in
connection with the Johnston Church
Ladies' Aid:—Pres., Mrs. Silas John-
ston; Vice -Pres., Miss Bessie' Moses;
Sec., Mrs. Geo. Thornton; Treas., Mrs.
Arthur Shaw; Parsonage Committee,
Mrs. Silas Johnston and Mrs. Wm.
Thornton.
Wm. Taylor, who has a comfortable
home on the 9th line, has bought the
100 -acre farm adjoining his on the+ east
from Adam Sholdice, paying $4,300 for
it. This will give Mr. Taylor a phoice
property of 200 acres which Will no
c'Subt be a good revenue pr4lucer.
The purchaser comes into immediate
possession. Mr. Sholdice going to the
farm he bought on the McKillop' boun
dary, from Mr. Hutohinson, known as
the Ryan farm.
Sunday, May 14't1h, Wah. Laughland,

man, of Montreal, survive. Mrs, Shed-
den and Allan Speir,•rtho latter being a
nephew, went to Oshawa on Saturday
and Robert Shedden went '.Monday
afternoon. The subject of this notice
was a fine type of manly man .ncl was
widely esteemed. He visited hif Morris

The report of the Chicago Vice Com-
mission has just been made public. A
member of the commission said that if
the moral conditions amongst Chicago
school children were comprehended,
"they would shake the nation from
ocean to ocean." The teaching of sex
hygiene in the schools is recommended,
but the commission believes that "no
amount of education, or legislation,
will meet the case, unless reinforced
by religion." Here is the inmost secret
of the general depravity complained of..
It is the loss of a deep consciousness of
the sinfulnes's of sin. It arises from
the almost universal lessening of re-
spect for God's Word—and of reverence
for the Deity Himself.
The thirteen -year-old boy of a friend
of the writer's, asked his mother if he
might bring home from school some of
his mates and play ball with them in
the back garden. The mother consent-
ed, but, mindful of the younger child-
ren, she stipulated that the lad must
choose companions who did not swear.
Some days later the mother inquired:
"Why did you not bring home the
boys, Toni?"
"Because I could not find any that
did not swear, mother."
"What! Does every boy in the
school swear?"
' '`Oh, no; but every boy that plays
games does."..
Thinking the lad might beover-care-
ful and might have in mind coarse or
excessively slangy language, the moth-
er inquired further: "Just what sort
of words do you mean, Tom?"
"Well, 'God damn,' and `Jesus
Christ,' " was the horrifying answer.
Tom added: "It's awfully hard to
keep thinking right about things, moth-
er, when the boys talk so."
Is it to be wondered at if those who
despise God, should violate the decen-
cies of life?
In this connection, Mr. J. H. Smith,
County Inspector, Wentworth, after
disagreeing with the changes of im-
morality, says in the Hamilton Spec-
tator:—
"I must admit that there is still a
tendency among the boys to use foul,
might I say, blackguardly. language,
which habit however, is general all
over the country, and should be laid
only at the doors of the various homes.
I firmly believe that the home train-
ing given our children in the vast ma-
jority of cases is inadequate and fails
for the simple reason that the boys
and girls are not taken to task for any
mistakes or breaks along these lines.
The proper place for education along
sexual lines is in the home, but failure
to look after the children in the homes
leaves it to the state, and I am in
favor of instruction being given to the
boys and girls, providing it is handled
in the proper manner and with all due
care."
Several of the county teachers were
with Mr. Smith at the time he made
the above assertions, and one of them,
Mr. W. F. Moore, Principal of the
Dundas School stated that he was
strongly in favor of instruction being
given the pupils along moral matters.
"The parents of the present genera-
tion seem to care nothing for their
children's welfare along these lines,
and it is useless for us to look to them
for any assistance. I believe our sy-
stem of education should include in-
struction on sexual relationship, and
that we should make every attempt to
fill the breach caused by the failure
of the parents through ignorance and
carelessness."
John Isbister, B.Sc., son of Mr. Wm.
Isbister of Morris, who for the past
five months has been with the Canadian
General Electric Co„ of Toronto, work-
ing on construction work at Belleville
and Campbellford, has been promoted
to the position of superintendent and
designer of the new sub -station and
