London, October 3i-h.—Woodall & Co., of Liverpool, report the arrival up to date of 200,000 barrels of"apples, against 11,000 at this time. last year, but being alreost entire- ly early softvarieties they have completely -congested the market. The week's quota- tions for sound apples per barrel !are : Cul- y'erts, (k to S, ; Snows, us to 13S kings, 108 to 14s (id ; Blcnheinis, 83 to 118 3;1 ; liollands 8s to 9. --;Gd ; (Trecnings, 8s to Ns9'1. The condition of touch of the apples is and tiling but satisfactory, and the posi- tion causes anxiety. It is a serious question if, with cimil u' quantities arriving, the winter fruit will much improve quotations. White & Co., of London, report their ar- rivals this week urut•h heavier. Prices here are two to three shillings per batrel better than at Liverpool, eepecialiy for good fruit Greenings seem in good demand here, as the apples coming are chiefly Baldwins. THE MARKETS.

TORONTO, October 7th.—Export cattle was selling slowly at from 3ieo 31c per pound ; a shade over may have sen given fora few extra fine cattle, but-. t free-q-uar tern was about the top figure, a d the.tle- mand was slow with a difficulty in effecting sales. Butchers cattle was no bet�er. For a few picked lots 3c, 3,',,c and 34-c Was paid, but these are not to be taken as representa- tive figures ; 2'Ic was about, the best price paid for loads of the best cattle here. There was not much cattle that deserved to' be classed as good, and the demand now among city butchers is for cheap meat ;•; but more better dualities of cattle would 'have sold had it been ,'`in sight. For_medium stuff , from 2;}c to 33-e was the rage, While com- mon -sold at around 2c, and occasionally a good bit lower. All the cattle was,.not sold.

'B1CAt:E.untm:E, Muskoka., Ontario, April 3rd, 1894. J. M. McLeod, Goderich Dear Sir—lt .is only right -and. proper that I. should acknowledge in wi•iting, my wife's cure affected -through you. When I first wrote to you, explaining the nature of the case and for information regarding treat- tinent, Iwas in a poor frame of mind. She had thea been ailing for several years, but she was getting gradually weaker ; during the last two years she got worse, and she doctored steady all the time. She consult- ee) all -our local physicians,•took their medi- cines, but they did not clo her any good. At the time I wrote to you she was j 'mother of two children, both healthy, tong and robust. 'Phe youngest was.18 months old then. 1 consulted some specialists from other parts, not one of them could do her. any good; not even relieve her. They. told - me -that she • could not be cared. ' I could feel with my own hand •the growth at the side of the.stornach, also the eating there, and I knew it should not be.' there. I did not, wish her to know all the told me, but at. last I had to, and they tol 1- herself that she had aneurism of the aorta, and that she could not be cured.. In, this world there was no cure for,her. 1•Isas told that she might drop off any moment. �� In her -then condition, she grieved, and became. dement- ed. and nervous: I did not Wender at this, but to rile the outlook was gloomy. Nothing ever cheered me more than, your answer on the first of ESeptember,' 1892. You said doctors differ and make mistakes as well as other folks. .They. did not know all, and not to be alarmed. 'I 'went with her to Goderieh on the 18.th of September, 1892 . THE HURON EXPOSITOR,. She left home with a sad heart,par.ting with her children, as she .1? lieved, forever, but I had faith in you, es en if the case was a hopeless one. - She kn w it to be that and lost all, hope of return ng home cured or Well. You told her at Once that her case was critical enough, bu you thought she could -be cured alljright. You made and fitted a flannel. waist to cover the growth' that was right undern ath the breast bone and the left ribs on tl e upper left side of the stomach. The pul ation was strong at times.. This annoyed er very much. She bega.n''taking your Sys em Renovator there and then, gradually in reasing the doses. Continued it fortwo w eks that way, ap- plied E. A. McLennan s Liniment under- neath -the bandage three or four tunes a day. This was continu d for 25 days. It was after the 10th day hat she herself be- came sensible of the it provement, and on the 31st of September, he same month in which we left home, I b ought her back via Toronto, cured and in perfect health, per- fectly sound in every re Leet, and I was the happiest man in Can da. rShe is''tall as you know, weighed abot t 146 pounds when• in Goderich,•now she w ighs over 200. She was never as well as s ie has been since c,anling back. We had n addition to the family since then,a brig! t healthy little girl. As I said before, if they is ablessing in any- thing on earth,it is your medicines. All the neighbors called and co gratulated her on her recovery. I can ne er thank ydu as I would like to, but you have our good and best wishes. I am cjuit well again myself. Long life to you. lour KE. N ETIs M ORRISON . A Ten Thousand ollar Picture. It is doubtful if there is a larger circle of delighted subscribers in the whole world than those who have th; good fortune to be on the subscription list o the Family Herald and Weekly Star of -Mo.treal. The paper itself is simply grand. 1 ne would almost think the publisher wou d require a mint at his back to turn out s ich a paper as the Farnily Herald and We kly Star is every issue, and it grows bett:r and better each week. But most�i(astonishing of all. are the beautiful prem'iiuhs tha the Family Herald publishers occasionally resent to their sub- scribers. Their-reputa ion for this is as wide as the continent itself. This is said to be the busiest season the Family Herald and Weekly Star has had • since it was first founded ; and the year is to be commemor, ated in a way that wi 1 make newspaper subscribers everywhere imply stand aghast. At an enormous expens running far up into the thousands we hear hat the publishers of the • Family Herald and Weekly Star have secured that wo Id wide celebrity, The Orphan's Prayer.' It is to be pro- duced in twenty colors and each Family Herald subscriber, r'ene al as well as new, will be entitled to one f them if they. get on the list in time. Ho it can be done is the wonder. • But the public know when the publishers of the Family Herald and Weekly Star promise a ood thing they live up to their promises. . In referring to the urst of admiration solicited by the announc ment of " The Or- phan's Prayer," perp ps it may not he amiss to quote what wa said by the great art house at Boston, Pr ng & Co.
