Consumption Takes Hundreds of People Every day and the surprising truth is that most cases are pre- ventable with timely, intelligent treatment. These appalling facts should warn us that after sickness, colds, over- work or any other drains upon strength, Scott's Emulsion should be promptly and regularly used be- cause tubercular germs thrive only in a weakened system. The tested and proven value of Scott's Emulsion is recognized by the greatest specialists because its medical nourishment assimilates quickly to build healthy tissue; aids in the development of active, life-sustaining blood corpuscles; strengthens the lungs and builds physical force without reaction. Scott's Emulsion is used in tuber- culosis camps because of its rare body-building, blood -making prop- erties and because it contains no alcohol .or habit-forming drug. Be sure to insist on Scott's.

HURON COUNTY BUSI- NESS MEN'S ASSOCI- ATION. • On Prohibition A MOTHER'S DUTY TO HER DAUGHTER. Is To Guard Her Health by Keeping Her Blood Supply Pure. Anxious mothers who see their daugh- ters fail in strength, become pole and languid, can be certain that the cause of their anxiety is the condition of the growing girl's blood. At no time in her life does a girl stand in greater need of pure, red blood and the strength which it alone can give her, than when she is developing into womanhood. It is then that anaemia rapidly develops and the growing girl finds herself in declining health. If your daughter complains of feeling constantly tired, if her appetite is fickle, if she is breathless from slight exertion, or if her heart palpitates violently on going upstairs, it is a cer- tain sign that her blood is failing to meet the demands upon it, because it is thin and watery. It is at such times that Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People are worth their weight in gold to tired anaemic girls. They actually make the new, red blood, that brings brightness to the eye, the bloom of health to the cheeks, and strength and activity to the whole body. The follow- ing is an instance of their value to young girls: Miss Hilda Pearly Snowe, Barrington, N. S., graduadit drooped under an an attack of aoaemia. At first she was pale and lietress, suffering from occasional headaches, but as the trouble progressed, a, severe cough also attacked her and her' friends feared she was in the grip of consumption. Almost from the outset she was being treated medically, but with no apparent benefit. At a critical stage in her illness Miss Snowe wisely decided that she would give Dr. Williams, Pink Pills a trial. After taking them for some time there was a noticeable improvement in her case and the Pills were gladly continued until she was fully restored to health. Miss Snowe is to -day as healthy and rugged as any girl could wish to be, and her friends believe that Dr. Williams' Pink Pills saved her life. These Pills not only cure anaemia, but all troubles due to poor blood and weak nerves. Sold by all medicine dealers or by mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50, from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. No. 11 We regret this is our last paper be- fore the day of voting. The time has been too short for an educational cam- paign. And is it any wonder that our friends, who style themselves the Tem- perance party, would have rushed this vote on in November, had they. had their own way? Anything but Infor- mation that bears down on Prohibition for them. Of what value is anything that will not bear the light of scrutiny? In our papers we have shown beyond contradition, that Prohibition is abso- lutely bad. We submit for the careful consideration of our readers these fade concerning Prohibition:— 1. It does not prohibit. 2. It brings into existence a coft, empt for law. 3. It breedsdeceit, lyingqiialice and in any conimunity./ 4. It tends to deteriorate the mental and physical n4ures ofahose oppressed by it. 5. It leads toHKCOnsumption of:drugs and patented nostrums most detrimental to health. 6. It produces the worst form of drunkenness there is, owing to the adulteration of the intoxicants sold in prohibited territory. 7. It is utterly unscriptural. What- ever ground the Temperance Party may have from the standpoint of expediency, they literally have not any support whatsoever from the Bible 8. THE BIBLE DENOUNCES DRUNKENNESS, BUT IT DISTINCT- LY ENJOINS, EVEN COMMANDS, THE PROPER USE OF INTOXICAT- ING BEVERAGES. We have every confidence that the men of Huron will not be misled by the representatives of those, who, while generally sincere, are pursuing an ignis fatuous, they call Prohibition. We have no hesitation in pronouncing PROHIBITION TO BE 2%. CURSE, AND NOT A BLESSING. Respectfully, THE HURON COUNTY BUSINESS MEN'S ASSOCIATION. JOHN RANSFORD, President. Wm'. JACKSON, Secretary. ouLttoss. The 200 acre farm on the 4th con- cession, known as the John McKenzie farm has been sold to Messrs. George Falconer and sons. The price paid was $6,700 and the Messrs.

STOOK MARKETS Toronto, Jany. 10 — Union Stock Yards —Receipts for to -day, 162 cars, with 2,869 cattle, 65 calves, 2,515 hogs, and 607 sheep and lambs. With a moderately heavy run of cat- tle offering, buyers were inspired with the happy thought that prices were due to come down a peg or two. The re- sult was a slower market, with a tend- ency to drag, but how far bidders were successful in lowering prices was a mooted point at mid-day, with claims made on both sides of the question. The hog inarket was a little demoral- zed and weak, but with prices covering a wider range than usual at from $8.65 to $9, f.o.b.. the bulk going at around $9.25, fed and watered. Sheep and lambs strong and firm, with a light run. Calves steady to firm.
