WHEN 1.3TWY GUS When the baby. cries eontinually r,., not put it down for pure wellness the: is not the baby's natures -• it is to be hap- py and laue.h. Every baby should cry on an average of fifteen or twent" min- utes a clay -•-that is bow he strengthtns his lungs. But mothers if your baby gives sharp piercing cries or low sobbing wails. he is in pain and needs attention. Nothing will relieve the little (mo so quickly as Baby's Own Tablets. `Tboy regulate the stomael) and bowels, expel worms, break up colds, and will make baby 1. .lthy and happy. The Tablets are solo try medicine dealers or by mail at 25 cents a box from The Cr," Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville?,, Ont. ere On Thursday night the members and guests of the Lucknow Businessmen's Association held their first aenual ban- quet at the Cain lloust'.

McDonald on Thursday, May 8th. The officers were all present and a good attendance for the busy season. After the usual business had been transacted, the sec- retary read an acknowledgement from the Queen Mary Hospital, Toronto, saying our contribution had been rec- eived and was very helpful, and in the near future we would receive a photo of the cut we had helped to furnish.

The meeting was brought to a close to meet on June 12th. Silver Threads. Life is fading, fast away, silver threads are on my brow; will you love me when I'm grey, as you love me now, 'my frau? Will you love me when I'm old, and my temper's on the blink, and I sit around and scold till I drive the folks to drink? When I have the rheu- matiz and lumbago and repeat, and the cuss words fairly sizz as I nurse my swollen feet; when a crutch I have to use, since my trilbys are so lame that they will not fit my shoes, will you love me just the same? When the gout infests my toes, and all vanished are my charms, will you kiss me on the nose, will you clasp me in your arms? Silver threads are in the gold, life will soon have run its lease; I'd be glad if I .were told that your love will still in- crease when my high ambition fails, and , my hopes are all unstrung, and I tell the tiresome tales of the days when 1 was young; when I sit around the shack making loixd and dismal moan, of the stitches in my back and my aching collarbone; When the asthma racks my chest so I cannot speak 'a word, Will you fold me to your breast, saying I'm your,honeybird? When I'm palsied stiff and sore, when I•'n1 weary of the game, tell me, 0 Jemima dear, will you love me just the same? Walt. Mason. A movement has been started .for the erection of a general hospital in Leatn- ingtoii, and a preliminary canvas indic- ates'that little tlifliculty will be Met in raising the necessary $25,000.

W. Dwight, fel. b'. The r eultof Me. D.vight'e investiga- tions 11:.s 11 t leech publishA in pamphlet form by rho Bra acli as t'.ie;r bulletin No. r;:,, entitled "Forest C.n- ditions in the It•)mlty M n stains Forest Reserve." The forest reseev,r m` alien - ed, it will be remembered, co•nflri e's the entire eastern elope. of the Rocky Mountains from the ia:e.natioeal r,uun- dery to a point farther n:n-th than the latitud. of Edrnenton. Tee study takes in only the southern part of the reserve. In the bulletin referred to, Mr. Dwight' describes the trees of the region acrd I discusses the effect on theta of altitude, aspect and other contlitions. Hle. also goes into the affect of fires, lumbering and other factor's on the forest and its growth. Methods of lumbering are also discussed, with the idea always in mind of renewing the forest and getting a second crop of timber. Methods followed on the United States. "National Forests" in Montana are described in this connection, a:vl the bulletin concludes with a number of tables of a technical nature, showing. among othet details, the yield to be ex- pected from forests of the various types. A number of half tone cuts are used to illustrate the bulletin. Copies may be obtained gratis from the Director of Forestry, Ottawa.. 1V tJJ1 0ti U1t0lr. 1 We heard the new bell at Zetland school for the first time on Tuesday i morning. It so'ands fine and is certain- ly an improvement on the small hand bell and reminds us of the Old Land. Many are through seeding and some will be busy this week finishing. One up-' o -date farmer near Wingham planted corn on Monday. Oats and clover in this locality were touched with frost. First blossoms of strawberries are killed. Some say plums and black currants are killed. We don't think black currants are in- jured. Cherry trees are full of bloom and apple trees look fairly well. Pot- atoes are going to be scarce around here. A lot of nursery stock and ever- greens have been distributed this spring. Judging from the way the roots were exposed to sun and wind, people will be ordering next year to replae what was purchased this spring especially if the tops were not cut back. What a lot of money wasted. The creamery is doing Well this sea- son. Saw mill is running and I hear saw dust will be sold not given away. Some of our neighbors have set out tomato plants and are busy trying to keep them warm. Mr. G. Cottle's green house is in full swing. Empire service will be held in the churches next Sunday. Liying must be dear in Wingham, judging from the quaiity of rhubarb we see exposed for sale 5 cents and the price of meat, cheese and potatoes. • At their post of duty during a fire which completely gutted the handsome Knox Presbyterian Church in Stratford at an early hour Tuesday, Police Chief J. A. McCarthy, Police. Constable Matthew Hamilton and Fire Chief Hugh Durkin were instantly killed, when the hugh burning belfry crashed from a height of 160 feet, catching the unfor- tunate men before they could rusn to safety. Impressions of a Traveler. (Winnipeg Tribune.) A wealthy American carriage man- ufacturer, F. H. Miller, gives his im- pressions of a European tour: "I feel just like a rube who bought a gold brick," he said. "I never got so badly stung in all my life. Europe is the biggest bunk in the world." "Follow some impressions of Mr. Miller on Europe: "The Alps are nothing but foothills. You could loose them in the Rocky Mountains. "Venice smells to heaven. The health authorities in any villiage in the United States would clean up those dirty canals in Softy -eight hours." "Monte Carlo is a joke. The gamb- lers there are pikers. The average traveling salesman in the United States plays • a steeper game than they do there. "My only memory of Berlin is stale beer and rotten cigars. I brought back some of the cigars to hand to some of my alleged friends. "Paris is a pity of cheap side-shows when compared with some girls I know in Evanston. "London is a city} of gloom, fog and influenza." Egypt was described by Mr. Miller as a "land of awful smells and moth-eaten camels," Fat` be't'ter at home 'watching the opening game of the season.
