LITTLE ravEs Loses,
The annual report of the Registrar -
General for Ontario shows that in that
Province alone, out of every oue thous-
and children born one hundred and eleven
die before they reach the ago ot one y
and in every province of the Dot • ion
there is the same appaliug loss of eoious
little lives annually. Most of these
deaths are due to disor.:re of the
stomach er bowels, and „•et of tbeee
little lives could be saved mothers kept
always at hand a si ipl; emedy to give
the little one at the i • sign of trouble.
Such a medicine is ab s Own
Tablets,
which cures constipation, diarrhoea, in-
digestion, simple fevers, teething trouble,
worms and other minor ailments, whloli,
if not treated promptly becomes most
serious. And the mother has a positive
guarantee that these Tablets contain no
poisonous opiate or harmful drug. They
are equally good for the new born baby
or the well grown child. Thousands of
mothers say Baby's Own Tablets have
saved the lives of their little ones. You
can get the Tablets from any druggist
or by mail at 25 cents a box by writing
the Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brook -
Ont.

--Mr. Andrew MoKagne is bringing
in another car load of choice export
grass cattle which he will place on his

—Thos. Fells, the butcher, has se-
cured the contract of supplying the meat
to the Lemon Bros. circus on the day of
, their visit to Wiugham.
—The district committee of the Cana-
dian Lacrosse Association met at To -
routs Tuesday night and arranged groups
in the intermediate and junior series
District No. 4 of the junior Aeries will

—W. J. Mallagh's bookstore, corner
Dalhousie and Market streets, at Brant-
ford, was entered between Saturday
night and Monday morning and a quan-
tity of gold rings and other jewellery to
the value of about $800 stolen. Mr.
Mallagh is a nephew of Mrs. R. Herds-
man of this town and for a number of
years was a resident of Wingham.
—Wm. Wedow of the 12th concession
of Carrick fell down his well last week.
He was standing on the platform and
the woodwork gave way, letting Mr.
Wedow down into the well. Fortunate-
ly he managed to get hold of the side
boards and saved himself from drop-
ping to the bottom. The water in the
well was 13 feet deep. Mr. Wedow's
family came to his rescue, and saved
him from being drowned.
--Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Haines and

Percheron Stallion.
The fine imported Peroheron stallion,
"Maxim" was received in Wingham on
Saturday last and will make the season
in this section in charge of Mr. R. J.
Day. The horse is now at the stable of
A. T. Ford, V.S. He is a dark chestnut
with white star in forehead and white
tip on one heel. The horse was import-
ed last fall and won first prize as a three-
year-old at the Ottawa fall fair. He is
the property of T. H, Hazzard, V.S., of
Millbrook. Cards will be issued in a
few days giving the route and other par-
ticulars.
Paint the Houses.
There is no better way in which the
appearance of a town can be improved
than by the liberal use of paint. There
are places in town that have not felt a
paint brush in thirty years, ' and it is
surprising that they are neglected when
it costs so Little to make them look
better. Every dollar spent in paint adds
two dollars to the value of property. It
people cannot afford to pay for having
the work done, it would not be hard to
do it themselves. Imagine how much
nicer the town would look if every un-
painted residence was fixed up with fresh
paint.
