The Wingham Times, 1906-05-31, Page 3k 1 Red Rose Tea costs no more than other teas EVERYONE agrees that the best in anything is always the most economical even if it costs more. But when you can get the best in tea at the same price you pay for inferior teas, —when you can get that "rich fruity flavor" of Red Rose Tea, —when you can get all the good qualities of both Indian and Ceylon teas with none of their weaknesses, —when, in short, you can get Red Rose Tea at the same price as other teas ; why not have it ? is good Tea T. H. E,stalbroolls St. John, N.B., Toronto, Winnipeg STORIES OF BIG FORTUNES THAT CAME AS SURPRISES. In novels people are often made to pick np fortunes oat of a chance newe- paper advertisement, and the incident is dismissed by the reader as growing out of the author's itnagination. What should cause surprise is that not only are fortunes thus obtained, but that millions of pounds sterling are held in trust by Governments and other depart- ments which aro due to persons who have dropped out of eight, or for some reason fail to claim what is legally their own. Yet in some cases officials and others succeed in tracing the missing heirs, and fortunes of more or less value are literally thrust upon the lucky ones. Only last week a tailor's cutter resid- ing in Vienna received information through the American Consulate that his uncle had died in America leaving him a fortune of no less than $2,400,000. The uncle it appears, emigrated to New York where he bought forest land, and after- wards became owner of a gold mine, from which he accrued his fabulous wealth. His nephew was his sole heir. An old man, apparently poverty-strick- en, was found dead in bed last year. The police, on taking charge of two trunks which, so far as was known, were all deceased man possessed, found enclosed securities worth £80,000 and a bank book showing a deposit of £17,000. There was also a will appointing an executor, with direotions for him to hand over the £97,000 to the testator's sister, who re• sided in Dunfermline, Scotland, and who was entirely ignorant of her brother's wealth. In 1888 a Sheffield joiner named Platt received news of a large fortune due to his wife. Many years ago Mrs. Platt's uncle left England and went to Caitlin- nia. There he invested his savings in the purchase of land, which became very valuable, for much of it was built on. He died without making a will and as he was unmarried his relatives were advertised for. Eventually some of them were found at Birkenhead, and Mrs. Platt at Sheffield. The value cif the estate was estimated at £4,000,000; A pleasaut surprise in the shape of a windfall betel Thomas McGuinness, t..n old man who lived at a colliery in Dur- ham a few years ago. McGuinness re- ceived a letter from a firm of Sunderland solicitors, enclosing a copy of a letter with doenmeuts received from the New York agents, by whioh it appeared that he and his brother were entitled to share in a sum of ,E1,000, The money was left by William McGuinness, their brother who emigrated to New York, The Signs of Heart Trouble You can Surely Secure Heart Health and Strength through Dr. Shoop's Restorative.

Mrs. Geo. Lawson, Consecon, Ont., writes:—"Dr. Chase's Kidney -Liver Pills completely cured me of constipa- tion, rheumatism, stomach troubles and a very severe kidney trouble after years of suffering. I am now sixty-eight years of age and very grateful for what Dr. Chase's Kidney -Liver Pills have done for me." Made the Bear Work. Bill Winters is one of the heroes who uses hie wit to save his strength. Dur- ing a camping trip in the Maine woods Bill was easily the laziest man in the party. Finally his exasperated comrades told him that if he did not kill something be- sides time they would pack him off home. The next morning Bill borrowed a rifle and went off up the mountain. Two hours later the men in camp saw Bill running down again as fast as he could come, and close behind him was a bear. The men watched the chase with loaded rifles ready. On reaching camp Bill turned and shot the bear. • When the men could stop laughing, one of them said, "Bill, what on earth posseesed yon to run that distance with the bear so close, when you might have killed him on the hill and saved your breath?" Bill smiled:slowly. "What's the use of killing a hear in the mountains and lugging him in when you can run him in?,' he asked.—Boston Herald. How to live -a Long Life. Diligence makes doys short and life long; dalliance makes days long and life short. How slowly, how heavily pass days of laziness, yet how short and worthless a life made of these always seems. Short and quick -footed are the days which go by full of worthy pur- suits, Long seems the life like Glad - stone's or David Livingstone's, made up of these busy, short days. Remember that it is not with long days, but with length of days, that scrip- ture says there is satisfaction. Long dayis are the days that are wasted or lost in pettinest ; length of days is the posses- eion of those whose days still live in the fruitfulness of their accomplishments. If any man would have a long life, let him fill his daps until they seem short; if any' man has a short worthless life, it is he whose days are so vapid and empty that they seem tedious and long. May you have short daps and a long life. THE WINGHAM TIMES, MAY 31, 1906 ORURO* PERSONALS.

"Yes, in be- hind our stable used to be the safest place, but ma's on to it now!" "Do you know," said a Sunday school teacher, addressing a new pupil in the infant class, "that you have a soul?" "Course I do," replied the little fellovr, plwing his hanu over his heart, "I can feel it tick." Little Ethel waa learning to sew, and one day, after vainly trying to thread a needle, she asked: "Mamma, don't they call the hole in a needle an eye?" "Yes, dear,." replied the mother. "Well," continued the little miss, bot this gjel needle Is cross-eyed." Little Juana had noticed that nearly every Wednesday, the day her mother was supposed to be at home, her ma- ternal relative went out. One Wednes- day her mother made no move toward leaving, and Juana remarked: "Mamma, tnis is your deception day; don't you thiek it's time to put on your hat and go out?" Here Is a bit of exact reasoning on the part of 5, little schoolgirl. The teacher wished to impress the idea of the wrong of idleness. He led up to it by asking who were the persons who got ail they could and did nothing In return. For some time there was si- lence, but at last the little girl, who had obviously reasoned out the an- swer inductively from hor Own home experiences, exclaimed, with a good deal of confidence: "Pieter's, sir, Its the baby!" INDUSTRIAL ITEMS, The Cramps have order" enough on hand now to keep the 5,000 men em- ployed in their shipyards busy for the next 16 months. The number of persons employed mining in Great Britain and Ireland last year was 877,057, of whom 5,487 were females. The United States last year launched 227 merchant ships of more than 100 tons each, with a total tonnage of 238,- 518 tens. Besides these there were launched 19 war vessels, • aggregating 170,885 tons.

The exports of cotton and cotton goods, with a value of £19,512,- 000, showed an increase in 1904 of £436,000 on the preceding year. In Austria il&re are 3,250,000 spindles, and the yearly consumption of raw cotton is about 600,000 bales, whereas its neighbor, Germany, has about three times that number of spindles, and ocinaumem about three times that quan. tity of raw material. $O WE ITAVE HAD.

The average young man starts out on his career with a fighting chance of enc. cess. But he must workand work hard if he wishes to attain it. He can't go at it in a halt -hearted way, working hard one day and neglecting business the next. There are a great many things he can- not afford, and the chief of these is drink. Drink leads him into a thousand aud one extravagances that he would not dream of in his sober senses. There is so much competition in every line of business nowadays that a man must be keenly alert every moment if he would succeed. It stands to reason that the man with the drink befuddled brain is bound to go to the wall. Nobody sympathizes with him, but every ono pities him. It seems such a wicked shame that a man should so deliberately ruin his life. Ha probably meant to do such won- derful things when he first started. With his brave young head held high and his soul fired with ambition, he felt he would conquer natious. And instead, drink has conquered him. When a young man begins to drink he goes about with a lot of merry cora • panions. They think they are having a very good time; they laugh a great deal, and do many foolish, ridiculous things that would seem exceedingly silly to them were they sober. •ABSOLUTE SECURITY.

HOLLOW CONCRETE BLOCKS A recent farmers' bulletin says:— Among the advantages claimed for hon low concrete blocks construction may be mentioned the following: 1. Hollow block constuction intro- duces a saving of material over b'ick or stone masonry, 2. The cost of baying concrete blocks is hss than for brickwork. This is due to the fact that the blocks, being larger, require a much smaller number of joints and less reenter, aud, being hollow, are a less weight than solid brickwork, 3. A. wall constructed of good con- crete blocks is as strong or stronger than a Mick wall of equal thickness. 4. Concrete blocks, being easily mold- ed to any desired form, will prove to be a far more economical building material than stone, which hag to be dressed to shape. 5 Experience has proved concrete to be a moat excellent fire resisting mater- ial. 6 Concrete blocks, being hollow, tend to prevent sudden changes of tern- peratnre within a house, making it cool in summer aud easily heated in winter. 7. The hollow spaces provide an easy means of running pipes and electric wires. These spaces may also be need wholly or in part for heating and ventil• ating flues.

"For several years I have been troubled with gas around my heart, shortness of breath, in fact, if I walked my usual gait my breath would get so short I would be compelled to make several stops during my walk. •'01 late my food did not digest properly.

He who stands for the right will not come to a standstill. Reverent reasoning may be the best kind of a revelation. Ethics is good, and so is a motor; but it needs a dynamo.
