worse hart than the receiving of a bad
shaking up. A baby was tossed from its
mother's arms, through the car window
to the side of the track. 'The auxiliary

ORANGE BRETHREN HONORED.
Rev. Wm. Lowe 'and Mr. James G,
Stewart Receive Suitable Recog-
nition of Services from their
Brethren of L. O. L. 794.
At the close of the regular business
of L. O. L. No. 794, on Friday evening
(last, a very pleasant event occurred, in
the presentation to Rev. Bro. Wm. Lowe,
Gr •d, Chaplain of Ontario West, and
for thpast nine years a valued member
of the Wingham Lodge, of a handsome
gold -headed cane, bearing the inscrip-
tion : • " Presented to Rev. Bro. Wm.
Lowe, by Wingham L. O. L. No. 794,
September let, 1905." A suitable address
was read by Mr. A. H. Musgrove, and
Mr. W. J. Greer, on behalf of the lodge,
made the presentation. Rev. Mr. Lowe
had had no intimation of what was to
take place, and was therefore quite taken
by surprise, He replied feelingly, thank-
ing the brethren for their kindly remem-
brance, and in a brief address paid a
high tribute to the principles of Orange -
ism. A dainty lunch, served by Mr J.
T. Lamonby, was heartily partaken of
by all present, and a number of the
brethren bore testimony to the worth of
Rev. Bro. Lowe and Bro. J. G. Stewart,
both as citizens and as members of the
Lodge. An address was also sent to
Bro. Stewart. The following are the
addresses :—
To THE REV. WILLIAM LOWE : —
Dear Sir and Brother,—The members
of Loyal Orange Lodge, No. 794, Wing -
ham, having learned of your contem-
plated departure to another field of labor,
desire to convoy to you some token of
esteem and regard. During the past nine
years you have been an active and hon.
ored member of this Lodge, and during
this period yon have done much to ad-
vance the interests of Orangeism in this
locality. As a private member you have
always been ready and willing to render
assistance to those in distress, and your
wise counsel and advice have been' very
much appreciated. As an officer of this
Lodge you have always discharged your
duties in an able and impartial manner.
Besides this, you have not confined the
sphere of your activities to this Lodge
alone, but the many able sermons
preached to the brethren in this district,
and the number of eloquent speeches de-
livered at the various places where cele-
brations have been held, have done mach
to spread the principles of " civil and
religious liberty." We were pleased to
learn that the Grand Lodge of Ontario
West also appreciated your services by
twice electing you to the honorable office
of Grand Ohaplain—an office whichyou
now so efficiently occupy. We trust that
in your new home you may still continue
to labor for the good of all classes of
society, and that your labors may be
crowned with even greater success than
has resulted from your sojourn amongst
us. That continued health, prosperity
and happiness may attend you, your es-
teemed wife and your dear children, is
the earnest and heartfelt wish of us all.
As a slight token of our esteem, please
accept from us this cane. Trusting that
it may at times ball to remembrance the
many happy days spent in Wingham, we
bid you an affectionate farewell.
TO MR. JAS. G. STEWART :—

AGONY AFTER EATING
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills Cure the
Worst Cases of Indigestion.
"I suffered so much with indigestion
that my life had become a burden,"
Rays Miss Nellie Archiband, of Sheet
Harbor, N.S. "Every time I took even
the lightest meal it caused me hours of
agony. The trouble caused a chocking
seusation iu the region of my heart,
which seriously alarmed me., My in-
ability to properly digest my fond, lett
me so weak and run down that I could
not perform even tlightest rhe i htest house•
work, and I would tire out going up a
few steps slowly. I sought medical
aid, and tried several medicines, but
without getting the least benefit. My
sister who lived at a considerable dist-
ance, and who had been an iuvlid,
wrote us about that she ha been
cured through using Dr. Willi: a' Pink
Pills, and this derided me to ive them
a fair trial, practically as a art resort.
In the course of a few we • s there was a
notable change in y c iditinn, and I
began to relish n ..:els. From that
on I began to gai • .w strength, and by
the time I had u • d seven boxes, all
signs of the trouble had vanished and I
was once more enjoying good health,
and I have not since bad any return of
the trouble."
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills cure indiges-
tion, because they make the rich red
blood that brings tone and strength to
the stomach. Nearly all the common
ailments are due to bad blood, and when
the bad blood is turned into good blood
by Dr. Williams Pink Pills, the trouble
disappears. That is why these pills cure
anaemia, dizziness, heart palpitation,
geuerai debility, kidney trouble, rheu-
matism, sciatica, lumbago, and nervous
troubles, such as neuralgia, paralysis
and St. Vitus dance. That is why they
bring ease and comfort at all stages of
womenhood and girlhood, and cure their
secret ailments wheu the blood supply
becomes weak, scanty or irregular. But
you must get the genuine pills. Sub
etitutes and imitations which some deal
ers offer never cure anything. Whet'
von buy the pills, see that the full names

THE CAPE OF GOOD HOPE.
Some Facts Concerning It Thnt Are
Not Generally Known.
Though every schoolboy presumably
knows to a nicety where the Cape of
Good Flope is situated, there does un-
doubtedly prevail in less enlightened
circles some vagueness of conception
as to the exact locality of that cele-
brated headland. Even the gentle
reader is faintly conscious of uncer-
tainty and answers with a briskness
not born of conviction; "The Cape of
Good Hope? Why, of course I know
:where it Is. Down at the end of South
Africa." Gentle reader, you are not
very far out, fifty or a hundred miles
perhaps. And, as you say, it is not of
the slightest consequence from a prac-
tical point of view.
The Cape of Good Hope lies at a con-
siderable distance from the end and is,
in fact, the middle of the three promon-
tories, severally inconspicuous, which
jointly terminate a slender peninsula,
some twenty miles in length, forming
the barrier between False bay and the
Atlantic ocean on the west. These three
headlands, lying near together and
commonly undivided on a map of mod-
erate scale, are locally designated
Cape Point. It was here that Bartholo-
mew Diaz first encountered in full
force the prevalent southeasterly gales
and denounced the rugged, threaten-
ing, threefold promontory under the
sounding appellation of the Cape of
Storms, to be afterward rechristened
by pious, trustful hearts the Cape of
Good Hope. The Cape of Storms, the
Cape of Good Hope, Cape Farewell! Is
there nothing in a name?
The Great Assam Earthquake.
After the great Assam earthquake
which occurred on June 12, 1897, the
earth tremor went On continuously for
several days. It was estimated that
there were 200 shocks a day for a few
days after June 12, and, though these
had diminished to twenty or thirty a
day by the middle of July, the people
were accustomed for at least two years
after the earthquake to a daily shock.
These after shocks wtire the residual
effects of the first big disturbance and
had nothing dangerous in their charac-
ter.
Left the World.
The beautiful Mme. X. was greatly
distressed a short ifhile since. Her
husband had forsaken her, leaving be-
hind him a note as follows: "Farewell,
dear Adelaide. I am quitting this
World." Two days later the lamented
husband returned to the wife of bis
bosom in the best of spirits. 'He had

the speaker and the subject proved to be
wonderfully attractive, and all who
heard him seemed glad he was to remain
