This is a ques- tion which Wallace McLean seeks to answer in the May number of the Busy Man's Magazine. He writes: "Judg- ing from the lavish way huge nuggets and slabs of silver have been scattered over the surface of the earth at Cobalt one would conclude that there mnst be a great store house of the preoious metal in the immediate vicinity. That there is a storehouse is generally admitted. So far the lowest depth reached is in the neighborhood of 300 feet, but of this the lower 200 feet was made by' a diamond drill. This depth has been reached on the property of the Larose Mining Co. and the proprietors report that as depth is reached the ore bodies increa a in quantity and richness, It will take sev- eral year,' to ascertain what the rocks of Cobalt really contain. lip to the date the diagnosis is most favorable and it is firmly believed that Cobalt will not on- 1y prove its claim to possessing the rich- est silver ore in the world, but also to poseossing the greatest and richeiit sily'• ter mines in the world." AN AID TO MOTHERS. Baby's Own Tablets is the very best medicine in the world for curing .he minor ailments of babies and :.zing children. It is the best bees : = it is absolutely harmless.

Scotcbtown, N. B., says: '•I have used Baby's Own Tablets and have always found them a satisfactorymedi- cine.” You can get the Tables from any medicine dealer or by mail at 25 cents a box from the Dr. Williams Medi- cine Co. Brockville, Ont. Creeping Salt. Here is something in the• course of natural pnenomena that will interest and instruct the little folk if they look into it curiously: Into a tumbler half full of water dissolve just as much com- mon table salt as can be held in solution. Let it stand for a few days and see how the salt oreeps out of the water, up the inside of the glass and down the ontside —just like a thing of life trying to escape from its environment. And A'hen all the salt is apparently out of prison the water remains as salty as before! It is a pretty demonstration. Death of Wm. Reynolds. Mr. William Reynolds, father of Mrs. J. H. Beemer, of town, died at his home near Exeter on Sunday last, in his 92nd year. •He had not been ill long, their simply being a general breaking up of the system. To the Exeter Adocate we are indebted for the following particul- ars:—"Mr. Reynolds was born at Maid- stone, England, on March 20th, 1810, the deceased came to Canada about thirty years later and settled in Toronto, where he resided for four years. He then moved to the township of Stanley, where he took unto himself a life part- ner in the person of Miss Susanna Lee, and the happy union was blessed with a family of thirteen children, seven of whom, together with the surviving widow are left to mourn his demise: William of Sarnia; Henry, Hay; 13oration, Sarepta; Mrs. J. H. Beemer, Wingham; Mrs. W.C. Selly, Newberry, Mich,, and Mrs, J. Nicholson, Earl Grey, Sask. After remaining in Stanley for five years deceased removed to the township of Stephan where he continued to reside for seven years thence to the township of Hay for 23 years where he kept hotel; thence to Exeter, where he conducted the Station Ilotel for six years. From here he returned to Sarepta and there continued to reside up to the time of his death. Mr. Reynolds before leaving England served in the British Army, having been a member of the 98th Regi- ment of Infantry for eight years. He was postmaster at Sarepta for 45 years and also carried lis Majestie's mails for over thirty years, the duties of both be- ing performed most honorably to him- self and faithful to those whom he served. He was a ataunoh Conservative in poli- tics and has been an Orangeman for over fifty years, playing the fife at their 12th of July gatherings as long as he was able, As a man he was upright and honest and possessed those sterling qualities which command respect and admiration. A young Italian nained Romill was stabbed and fatally wounded in a quer-, rel at Winnipeg.
