The annual Wawanosh district Orange Lodge meeting was held here Tuesday of last week. The following were elected officers for the ensuing year :—District master, Thos. Shep- pard of Nile ; secretary, Ernest Sea- gus, of Nile ; chaplain, 3, B. Young of Dungannon. At the annual meeting of the Dun- gannon Rifle Association held here much business was transacted. The association, which is one of the strongest in Ontario, was found to be in splendid shape financially ; in fact last year was conceded to be the most successful in its history. At a meeting of the united con- gregations of Dungannon and Port Albert held on Monday, the 22nd inst., it was unanimously decided that upon the graduation of Mr. George Gomm of Knox College, Toronto, next spring, a call will be presented to him from the congregations. The people were very unanimous in their choice and are looking forward eagerly to the settlement of a minister after a long vacancy. The finances of the con- gregations were found to be in a heal- thy condition. The stipend promised is $850 per annum with three 'weeks holidays. The 33rd annual meeting of the West Wawanosh Mutual Fire Insur- ance Company was held Last Wednes- day. After hearing the directors' and auditors' reports the meeting was handed over to the policyholders, who appointed. Wm. Bailie chairman, and T. G. Allen secretary. The election of three directors resulted in the nomin- ation of J. H. Kaake, Jas, Girvin, Timothy Griffin and John Long. The first three were elected. A long dis- cussion on reduction of rates for rod- ded buildings resulted in the meeting advising the directors to make no change at present. At a subsequent meeting of the directors, John H. Kaake, of Kincardine, was appointed president and Jas. Girvin of Nile, Vice -President. NO REASON EOR DOUBT. A Statement Of Facts Backed By A Strong Guarantee.

Huron county now has three ridings, and it is possible that after the redistribution, it may only have two. * * * —The matter of the °lobe's debt of over $25,000 to the Government of Ca- nada is still unsettled. This, it is claimed, was cancelled by the out- going Laurier Government, after its defeat, and without authority. The new Postmaster -General insists on the payment of this amount, and we understand that the Globe will con- test the case in the Courts. The Globe should "whack up" -as other papers have done, —A stated case of the Ne Temere decree in its relation to federal and provincial jurisdiction in Canada will be presented by the Government of Canada to the privy council. The Government has taken the position that it is necessary first to determine the question of jurisdiction. As there seems to be a difference of opinion even among legal authorities on the Marriage question, as to whether jur- isdiction lies with the Dominion or with the provinces, we believe that the Government was wise in taking the course it has, When the question of jurisdiction is fully determined, then the matter of responsibility will be clear, * * * —Just now, anxious eyes are turned toward Ireland, especially to the North. It has been announced that on February Sth, Winston Churchill will speak in Belfast on the Home Rule BiII proposed to be passed by the British Parliament. Thousands of the loyal residents of the north of Ireland, 1 especially Ulster, are so bitterly op - I posed to Home Rule, that they are determined to prevent the meeting from being held, while the fibernians are just as determined that it shall. As both sides are arming for the con- flict, the situation is fraught with dan- ger, and while there should be free- dom of speech, yet at this distance, it looks as if it would be wise to with- draw the proposed meeting and avoid bloodshed. It is hoped that later re- ports will show improvement in the outlook. —At least three countries are tak- ing steps to secure wireless tele- graphic connection with their colonies viz :—France, Great Britain and Ger- many. Britain's scheme is necessarily the most extensive, as her colonies' are the most numerous and most widely spread, The route chosen will take in Gibraltar, Malta and Alexandria in the Mediterranean region, then Aden, Bombay, Colombo, and Singapore in the Indian Ocean region. From here the messages will reach Australia and will then be sent by diffierent posts to Montreal and Glace Bay, crossing the Atlantic to Oliffden. There will be branches from this general course, so as to reach the Cape and other parts of the African coast, and also China„ by way of Singapore, with one post located at Hong Kong the British possession in China. * * * —San Diego, California, .:has adopt- ed a method of civic improvement that is unique, In that climate, the eucalyptus trees grow so rapidly, that they may be cut clown, and immedi- ately they grow from the roots, and in seven years, may again be cut down, furnishing Iarge quantities of valuable wood, The timber is capable of a beautiful polish, and is suitable for furniture and office fittings. This is a source of revenue and many in- vest in eucalyptus groves, simply for the timber. Last spring, San Diego planted 40,000 eucalyptus seedlings on a wasted tract of 7,000 acres, So rapidly have these grown under scien- tific management that the citizens have hopes that their city may pay all its expenses from the proceeds. If so, the result will be that San Diego will be a taxless city, * * * —There being a strong Conservative majority in the Commons and a very large Liberal maa,jority in the Satiate, it is questioned as to how these condi- tions will eO eet legislation. Some in- timate that the Senate will obstruct Conservative legislation, and certain and sundry incidents having to do With the conduct of the Tory Senate when the Liberals swept into power in 1800 are 'being recalled to form a precedent, What with railway sub- sidies, the budget, the creation of the proposed tariff commission, and, as is expected, the extension of the Mani- toba boundaries, the prospects seem bright for display of lively antagon- ism an the part of the tipper Chamber nnmjority.

A few years ago it was believed that, above all things, the poultry house most be warm, and buildings were built on the bo,thouse plan.. "°As pointed out by Prof. W, R. Graham in his illustrated address to poultrymen recently gathered at Guelph, it is not heat that is essential to good results from poultry -keeping, but the essentials to a good poultry house are plenty of light, good venti- Lition, cleanliness, and freedom from drafts and dampness. Prof. Graham has made an extensive study of poul- try houses in several districts, especi- ally Norfolk County, and from the excellent number of slides which he showed there are many diOerenb styles of houses giving gad results at the present time. Marcy Q the houses illustrated in this lecture were very cheap, yet they were to built and so situated as to snake them fiery useful. One house, in particular, was a very common structure, yet it was so ar- ranged as to admit the morning and afternoon sun, and the hens were permitted to run in a yard to the east of the building in the mornings, so as to insure the best use of the surt's light ancl heat. and in the afternoon they were allowed out through another opening in the pen into the barnjrard, which gave thein the benefit of the afternoon sun to scratch in the barn- yard litter. There is no better place for laying Ilene to scratch than in a dry, well -littered barnyard, and where possible, the poultry house should be situated close to it. Expensive houses are not absolutely necessary. The open -front house is still in favor, as it ensures an abundance of fresh air, and the low-eaved type recommended by Prof. Grab.am is remarkably free from drafts, and is a well -lighted, dry house, which can be erected at reason- able cost, a house 20 feet square, with cement floor and all complete not costing over $100. A Strange Anatomy. Charles Schuppel, a window washer of Toledo, Obio, holds the record as an individual of many peculiar forma- tions. His heart is on the right side, his stomach is too far to the right, his liver is on the left side, his kidneys have changed places, and his spleen is around to the right side instead of the left. Schunnel makes considerable additions to his regular inconae by ex- hibiting himself at clinics, , He is forty years old, and is in excellent health. The Growing West. Edson Alberta, the first divisional point on the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway west of Edmonton, has be- come a busy point. Teams are leaving every day for the Grande Prairie country. Up in the Peace River Dis- trict road houses have been erected and good accommodation is afforded for travellers, and ample provision for the accommodation of horses is assur- ed. This route is the favorable one to- reach the Peace River country at this time, and it is surprising to see the number of people that are going in. Helpful Hints On Hair Health. Scalp And 'Hair Troubles Gener- ally Caused By Carelessness. Dandruff is a contagious disease caused by a microbe which also pro- duces baldness. Never use a comb or brush belonging to some one else. No matter how cleanly the owner may be, these articles may be infected with mi- crobes, which will infect your scalp. It is far easier to catch hair miscrobes than it is to get rid of them, and a single stroke of an infected combor brush may well lead to baldness. Never try on anybody else's hat. Many a hat -band is a, resting place for micrrbes. If you happen to be troubled with dandruff, itching scalp, falling hair or baldness, we have a remedy which we believe will completely relieve these troubles. We are so sure of this that we offer it to you with the under- standing that it will cost you nothing for the trial if it does not produce the results we claim. This remedy is call- ed Rexall "93" Hair Tonic. We honestly, believe it to be the moat scientific remedy, for scalp and hair troubles, and we know of nothing, else that equals it for effectiveness, be- cause of the results it has produced in thousands of cases. Rexall "03" Hair Tonic is • devised to banish dandruf, restore natural color when its loss has been brought about by disease, and make the hair naturally silky, soft and glossy. It does this because it stimulates the hair follicles, destroys the germ mat- ter and brings about a free, healthy circulation, of blood, which nourishes the hair roots, causing them to tighten and grow new hair. We want every- body who has any trouble with hair or scalp tt- know that we think that Rexall "03" Hair Tonic is the best hair tonic and restorative in existence, and no one should scoff at or doubt this statement until they have put our claims tb a fair" test, With the understanding that they pay us noth- ing for the remedy if it does not; give full and eomplete satisfaction in every particular.

When pigeons mate it's generally a lovey dove union for life, the cock se- lecting the nest puri bearing the nest material, which the hen arranges and then proceeds to lay her first egg at 5:30 p, nr. one day and the second at 2:30 p, in, the third day. They sit al. ternately, the hen from about 3 p. m. to 10 a. tn. and the wale then to the afternoon hour. About seventeen, days after the first egg Is laid It hatches. The other one two days later, the first squab gener- ally being the reale. Like kittens, the downy squabs are born blind, and the parents at once be- gin to feed them pigeon milk, nature wonderfully providing. for the help- less by so constituting parent pigeons that they are able to change grain to chyme, a tnill:y, predigested food, and they simply take the bird baby's beak In their own and by a spasmodic ac- tion of their crop inject the liquid into the squab's crop. As squabs grow the old birds modl- fy the feed to coarser, and when young birds are able to digest it the whole grain Is simply soaked in par- ents' crop until, at five weep, the squabs feed themselves. If small squabs die it is often neces- sary to borrow young of same age from another nest to feed off the old birds' mill. or they get sick, and 1t':1 sometimes the ease that squabs chokl to death when parents begin to feed) whole grain, their throats being to small to receive it, and an examinatio will show one or both parents have the' same bad defect, which unfits them fore anything but potpie. Pigeons are wonderfully prolific, twelve pairs a year being no unusual fb by C. M. Barnitz, SQt7AB JUST HAMMED.' record, birds often feeding one set of squabs and hatching another at the same time. Pigeon fanciers to succeed must be watchful and 'resourceful, for many things occur that require quick action. Pigeons at times refuse to warm their young, and they quick chill. • At once the breeder transfers them to a vacant nest, and if there is none he trills a pair of inferior or younger squabs, transfers the waifs and saves them. At times old birds desert squabs, or, strangely. only feed one. 1i there is no other nest to transfer to, the fan- cier must play mammy to save the Starving ones. He chews stale bread to a milky state, or corn, peas and red wheat, according,. to squab's age, and, taking bird's Deal, between his lips, he injects the soft feed into squab's crop. and the little fellow soon becomes attached to his wet nurse and thrives. "Horrible!" says one. But the pigeon lover. the successful squabber, is not squeamish; he does not belong to the Dict giove fraternity and would sooner n hundred tinges take a bird's beak in his tnotlth than the cigarettes smoked by these yellow fingered, soft headed society dudes. DON'TS. Don't let liens run in cold fall rains. They will not pick up enough to pay their undertakers' bills. Don't feed cut clover with coarse stems. These should be sifted out, as they are apt to cause hard crop-, Don't expect hens not to break eggs in nests that are too small, and don't get mad if they fight and scramble eggs where there are not sufficient nests. Don't expect your hens not to loaf If you let them fill up. Feed just enough to keep them working well all day, and let Mena hove the full meal for supper to keep their grinders go- ing all night. Don't get discouraged and blame that failure ou the hens. You must not: only study your bend, but your- self, and the results of your methods and failure may nearly always las trawl tp the fellow, behind the Mens.
