If the borne be right, society and the
nation will not be far wrong. The evil
lies in the homes. Society has its dan-
gers,. but society does much for the
young, and it should not be expected
to do all the work of the parent, In
the day of reckoning many a one who
blames the churches and the schools
for the shortcomings of our youth may
hear the accusations of Nathan: "Thou
art the man" Oh yes! Rail at the
minister, the school teacher, the phil-
anthropist, as you will; but first answer
your own heart: Have I done my whole
duty to my own offspring.—Hamilton

CHURCH NOTES
BABX'S OWN TAKETS
USED FROM BIRTH.
At a meeting held in Knox Church,
Kincarcardine, a very hearty and un-
animous call was extended to Rev.
Malcolm McArthur, of Scarboro. The
congregation offers $1,400 and manse,
and a months vacation.
The Methodist Ecumenical Confer-
ence, after a session of fourteen days
at Toronto, came to a close last week.
The topic of the last session was union,
co-operation, economy in the use of the
forces and means at the disposal of the
various branches of world Methodism.
Statistics presented showed that the
members and adherents of Methodist
bodies number 32,727,579.
The question of Church union is to be
submitted to the official boards and the
membership of the Methodist Church
within the next six months. The Gen-
eral Conference special committee at
its annual meeting on Thursday in the
board room at Wesley buildings, Tor-
onto, directed that a vote be taken by
the official boards not later than the
third quarterly meeting of the boards
in the Conference year; that is, in Feb-
ruary, and that a vote of the member-
ship shall be taken not later than April
15th,
THE YOUTH'S COMPANION IN 1912.
Mrs. H. V. Ossinger, Tiverton, N.
S., says; "We have used Baby's Own
Tablets since our little boy was three
weeks old and know of nothing to equal
them. He is now twelve onths old
and has always enjoyed p feet health.
Baby takes the Tablets asily and we
always keep them in t house," Mrs.
Ossinger's experi n is that of thous-
ands of other m rs. An occasional
dose of the Tables will keep the well
child in excellent health, or if the baby
is ill with any of the many ailments
that afflict little ones, they will speedily
restore him to health again and make
him thrive and grow fat, rosy and
strong. The Tablets are sold by meet --
eine dealers or by mail at 25e, a box
from The Dr, Williams' Medicine Co.,
Brockville, Ont,
No other paper is quite like The
Youth's Companion. It is taken in
half a million homes, where the choice
of reading is made with as much care
as the choice of friends.
For years The Companion has enjoy-
ed contributions by distinguished men
and women of Great Britain and Can-
ada. Among those already engaged to
write for the 1912 volume are General
Baden-Powell, who has something, of
interest to say about the Boy Scout
movement, Sir Harry Johnston, who
recalls the last of the Great South
African hunters, William T. Stead,
Jerome K. Jerome, Jane Barlow, Frank
T. Bullen, Rev. W. J. Dawson, Richard
Whiteing, Sir James Crichton-Browne,
and the Duke of Argyle, former Gover-
nor-General of Canada.
The serial stories alone, which will
follow one another the year through,
will be worth $1.50 each when published
in book form. By taking the Compan-
ion the Canadian subscriber gets them
all and 250 other complete stories for
$2,00, and the Articles, Miscellany,.
Boys' Page, Girls' Page, Household
Page, etc., put in for good measure.
Now is the time to subscribe, for on
January 1, 1912, the subscription price
will be advanced to $2.25.
Do not forget that the new subscrib-
er for 1912 receives free The Compan-
ion'sCalendar for 1912, lithographed in

sues for the remaining weeks of 1911

We .are thankful for many reas •ns, business and other-
wise and below allow us to state two business reasons:.
1. We have the largest. Shoe Store
in. Huron County.
2. We do the 2nd largest shoe busi-
ness in Huron County.
(The largest being done in the town of Goderich)
There are several reasons why and how these two
things have been brought to pass in the short space of
334 years, namely: "
Gccd goods—love est prices—big variety— court-
eous treatment and a determination on our part to make
ever) thirg right that is not right with our customers.
