The Sacramental services in the Evangelical church, on Sunday last, was truly a grand success, and a most fitting climax to the services of the day was the Y. 1', A. meeting in the evening led by Miss Catherine Finkbe'iner, in which several took part. The topic was the "Wise use of monev," A Good Joke—One .night last week, some of the boys here thought it Would be e good joke to give a bit of a dramatic scene on the .streets, consequently one of the number was disguised as a darkey and played the role of being in an intoxicated stats, goon a crowd gathered and arrests were being spoken of as such a character was considered unsafe to be let loose, but Mr. darkey when being approaohed showed signs of greet strength and agility and very soon none would venture near, and when he would approach any of the onlookers they would certainly make their sneak, and that too at a rapid gait one would have thought they were practising; for a foot -race in a Victoria Day celebration.

It is remarkable to find this sort of doctrine preached by a protec- tionist Conservative journal. It is nevertheless an eminently sound doctrine, and it might be applied to ether lines as well as to that of tobacco prodnotion. It is particul- arly commended to the woolen manufacturer:;, who, not satisfied with a tariff of 3Q per cent, even under the preferential tariff ac. corded Great Britain, ere clrunor- ing for still higher protection. RARE SPORT The mortality statistics of the United States show a gratifying decrease in the death rate from tuberculosis. In the "registration area" covered by the reports the rate fell from 168 2 per hundred thousaed in 1905 to 159 4 in 1900, The registration area comprises sixteen States, the District of Co- lumbia, and seventy-seven registra- tion cities in States not otherwise included, The total number of deaths in 1906 was 65,341. Michigan anis South Dakota sent in the most favorable returns, while the high est mortality was reported from Colorado and California The two last -pained States have many clim- atic advantages for consumptives, and the extreme death rate is due probably to the fact that many sufferers. from tuberculosis take refnge tbere The eeneral decline in mortality. from this disease may be taken as indicating that the fight against the plague is making headway. On Sunder, George McEwen, Jack MoDonell, Alex Murdock and Peter Lamont drove to Clinton in a two seated sleigh. It took the party four hours to reach their destination owing to the condition of the roads. On the , return trip thesleigh broke down and the three members Of the party who carne bank, Messrs. McDowell Mure clock and MoEvren, were obliged to CO sit as hest the,. old on the small front bob. The road was full of pitch holes and each time the bob went into ono of the deep ones it jettisoned its Cargo. It was a gay a,ncl festive sight to see three pairs ofheels shooting intoO space as they did 40 titnee after vhich Alex says he tired keeping tally.. The party guyed each other over each xiishap but some of thein failed to see the point of the joke owing to their extreme and startling frequency. The trio were nacre than glad, when the journey ended. —Hensall.Obsey Pain can be gnickly stopped. A 25 cent box of Dr. Shoop's head- ache Tablets will kill any pain, everywhere, in 20 minutes !

GOOD ROADS,—The County Coun- oil, at ite'special meeting lsat week in Seaforth, was unable to agree upon a method of securing a share of the Goods Roads Fund. The Government re!'used to consent to the proposed by-law, and none other that would suit the Govern- ment could be devised that could command a majority vote of the Council. The Middlesex County by-law was rejected, as it was considered to bo too favorable to the towns and village's, and was objectionable in other ways, as for instance the eompelling the spend- ing of $1000 ou each mile of the road adopted. This would require cc very heavy township tax with very doubtful ultimate benefit. especially as the roads might be handed bank to the municipalities at any time by reeolution of the County Connell. For the present the scheme is dead in Huron. —Godorich Star. MRS. SELLERY .After an.iilness of three weeks &d.ration Mrs, Seliery, mother of Dr, Seliery passed away on Mon- day evening, - About a month ago she arrived from her home in Kin- cardine to visit her son, where she was taken ill and died. Her hus- band came home after she was first taken ill but a good improve- ment in her condition took place and he returned to Kincardine, where he has business interests. On Monday morning she suddenly became worse, but it was thought that she would live for a few clays, and her death proved a great shock to her husband, who just arrived an hour before she died. The remains were taken on Tues- day morning by train to Kincar- dine, where the funeral took place on the following day. During her repeated visits to Hensall she made many warm friends who sincerely regret her death. She was a de- voted christian and had been an earnest worker in the Methodist Church for years. By her death her husband and son suffer a doub- le bereavement as it is only a few weeks since her daughter, Olive, died, Mrs. Seller,, was 53 years of age.—Observer.

It's during one -of these snowstorms that you ap- preoiate the advantage of a good reliable telephone. At a moment's notice, yen can ring up your 0 friends, four or five miles away, either for a pleasant ebat or for business com- munications. Yon can keep in close touch with thein no matter bow bad the roads are. A telephone is also very useful in the spring when the roads are breaking up and the traffic is suspended. a �'.D ®JtD s D D5MD D OmSD D b ®O D C (PJD 00 ®Q D ®U D B @If The scant supply of feed from last year's harvest is going further than expected. A steady winter with abundance of snow will, if experience holds good, be followed by a reasonably early and favor- able, crowing season ,with plentiful harvest as its culmination. The slackening of commercial activity during the winter now passing was due to the short crop of last year. If the early summer gives a reason- able assurance of a better yield this season the wheels of industry will again begin to revolve. Even now, with general trade still com- pa.ratively dull, the market for ftermproducts, owing to shortage of supplies, is in a fairly healthy condition. Although beef cattle are it little dull this week, the gen- eral outlook in this line is fair ; horse values are showing evidence of stiffening ; mutton prices con- tinue taken time high s hogs have-atlastt e n b an upward turn and prospects for dairying could not well be better. If general trade revives as ex- ,petted the pi'esentyear for Cana. dian farmers should equal if not sttrpass the record made in any one of the last ten years.—Weekly EEa 1:7, d t ei ALL KINDS AT IANN1E'S FLOUR & FEED SORE!

COME AND SEE "AXES NUMBER THIRTEEN —The following from the editor of the Mitchell Advocate, will be read with interest: '-it is amusing at times to pay attention to the super- stitious. Even in this advanced age tbe old fear stilliingors and so biased are sonic on this matter that it is their one strong fear in life, The Advocate was never superstitious, nor do we give it any belief. To some the day Friday is as ninoh dreaded as the number 13. • Never will they start on a journey. It is different with the editor, how- ever, snit ill -luck has never hover- ed about us, We came to town on a Friday ; woo issue a Friday paper ; we have a family of thirteen child- ren, and the youngest has thirteen letters to her name. How could we believe in superstition? His- tory telly us that the objection of sitting thirteen to a table is based on tho fact of the last supper, when Christ and his twelve discip- les sat down to eat together, end inirnedrately after, the Saviour was seized by his enemies. Among the Turks the nnnibor thirteen is so disliked and feared that it is never oven named. In Italy it is never used in making up the num- bers of the favorite lotteries and in Paris it is omitted in numbering the houses on the street." Married.
