PERSONAL.
Mrs. John Terriff of Cornwall is visit-
ing with Wingham friends.
Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Neil were visiting
in Goderich for over Sunday.
Mies Mand Robertson was visiting
with friends at Auburn last week.
Mr. Alfred Carr, of Blyth was calling
on Wingham friends last Thursday.

hive Stock Markets,
Teronto, Aug. 13—Warm weather and
a consequent email demand for meat,
influenced the business at the Western
Oattle Market this morning, but there
was a comparatively fair volume of
transactions.
The run was sixty loads, comprising
800 cattle, 870 sheep, 500 hogs, and 256
calves,

Mr. C. 0. Castle, the chief warehouse
commissioner of Canada, has forwarded
from Winnipeg to the Department of
Trade and Commerce a most favorable
report as to the Western crop outlook.
He diaconate to a large extent the un-
favorable reports which have recently
appeared, and from present prospects he
is confident that the Western farmers
will realize two dollars an acre more
than they did last year.
I dare not talk of the temptations that
were open to a man in his position, for
nothing could tempt him to deflect by a
hair's breadth from the straight path of
perfect integrity—but everybody will
know that a man who lives in a country
that is growing from hour to hour with
gigantio rapidity and size might easily
become a multi millionaire, if he so de-
sired. Sir Wilfrid Laurier has remained
the man of modest tastes, a modest house
a modest income. He has preferred in
life the greater and purer glory of serv-
ing his countrymen, with no other re-
ward than the modest remuneration of
their ministerial salary and the immeas-
able extent of their affection and respect.
—T. P. O'Connor.
The Mail and Empire says that if the
leadership of the Liberal party had fal-
Ien to Edward Blake he would have
given us clean governm3nt, and under
him the grafter would have had no
place at Ottawa. This is true no doubt;
but it is safe betting that if Edward
Blake were Premier today, and were
giving the country clean government,
one would never learn the fact from
reading The Mail and Empire. Alex•
ander McKenzie gave the country clean
government, but his political opponents
did not discover the fact, or acted as if
they had not discovered it, until long
after he had passed beyond the reach of
their criticism and abuse. He was at-
tacked during his political career, just as
Mr. Blake was attacked, and as Sir Wil.
frid Laurier is still attacked. In years
to Dome when the object is to score a
point against the Liberal leader of the
day Sir Wilfrid Laurier will be held as
a model of purity, just as McKenzie and
Blake are now held up,—Woodstock
Sentinel Review.
The report of the lunatic asylums for
the Province of Ontario for 1906 lies be-
fore us, and as the Landon asylum is the
'most interesting to this section, we give
the following statistics regarding it.
There were 1,000 persons there last year,
527 males and 563 females, of whom 20
were discharged as cored and G as im-
proved. The total admission since the
openeag of the inetitntion were 5,461, of
whom 1,369 were Methodist, 1,291 Pres-
byterian, 995 Episcopalian, 907 Catholic,
460 Baptist, 46 infidels and the balance
of other denominations. In national-
ities, 3,250 were Canadians, 718 Irish,
663 Eaglish, 429 Scotch. Heredity,
business troubles, worry and intemper-
ance are given as the principal causes of
their insanity, and between 40 and 50
years of age are the most frequent ad-
missions.—Ridgetown Dominion.

LISTEN TO WHAT WE SAY !
One of the most difiioult things for us to do in this " Big
Store " is to keep stook low, down where it should be. It
is the easiest thing imaginable to buy more goods than is
really necessary and thus get overstocked.
We have $10,000.00 worth more stook than we should have
at this time of the year. Fall and Winter Goods aro com-
ing in lively and we have no place to put them—no room on
our shelves when the time comes to put them into stook 1!
