"On every hand one hears of the neglect to any thank you," writes Edward W. Bok on "The Saying of Thank You,' " in - the November Ladies Home Journal. "1 wonder sometimes if some people really know how little of what comes to them is their due and right, and how much of what comes to them is by favor and courtesy. The vast majority of things which comes to us, come by pure favor, by courtesy. And we should recognize this. No aot of kindness, however alight, iihould go unnoticed. A 'thank you is a simple thing to say; it re- quires but a few moments to write it, but it often means inuch ; it means everything sometimes to the person receiving it. It - means a renewed faith in human nature in some cases. A word of thanks is never lost, never wasted. If it sometimes seems to be lost upon the person to whom it is _directed, its expression has not been lost upon some one else who has heard it. It is certainly not lost upon 'ourselves. The most of us are quick enough to thank some one who does us great service. But the small cour- tesy, just as great as the large serviee in reality, we overlook. It doesn't seem worth while to give thanks for email things. And yet what would we be tosday, and where would some of us be but for the small cour- tesies of life? They are what make life worth living. " * * It is all very well to have the last -Thursday of each November set apart as a day of Thanksgiving. °But it would be far better if a great many of us carried the epirit of the day into all the other days. Perhaps, if we did so we might have more mercies to be thankful for on Thanksgiving Day. * * Do not let the spirit of thanks stop with nightfall on Thanksgiving Day. Let us extend it to all the other days of the year, to the people *hose lives touch ours. - When we receive a favor at the hands of any one, no matter how small it may be, let us. say the words, Thank you.' If they should be written let us write them. Let us not delay them, but take advantage of the in- stant when our heart is touched. Let there be more thank y ' said by everybody - thousands of them. And the world will be a better, beighter and happier place to live in because of them." -• A SCIENTIST SAVED. We also do picture framing, 30 differen .ads of moulding to select from.

NOTES. -Mr. Matthew Hutchinson, Q.C., of Montreal, came rip from that city the latter end of last welt to visit his namesake, Mr. Matthew Hutchinson Elliott, of Wing - ham, and also his old neighbors and pupils around Bluevale. Mr. Hutchinson is a son of the late Mr. Scott Hutchinson, a Turn - berry pioneer, who used to live on the farm now occupied by Mr. Charles Gannett, About thirty-four years ago, Mr. Hutchinson began his first wont by teaching in No. 9, East Wawanosh, io the old log school house that stood where the frame one is now. On Tuesday a this week he visited the school in Wawanosh and also some of his former pupils there. -After teaching in Wawanosh, he taught in Bluevale, where he is still remembered as a very popular teach- er. In 1865 he went to Montreal and en- tered the law office of the late lion. J. C. Abbott', late Premier of Canada'with whom he practised for some years. • At the present time, and for many years past, he has had a French lawyer as partner. Mr. Hutchinson is a prominent speaker at many of the Liberal meetings in Montreal. This is his first visit to Bluevale since he left ie thirty-two years age, and the many gaps in his circle of acquaintances must have been rather saddening. Their many friends here will be glad to know that Mr. Hutchinson's mother is well, and that the rest of the family, Mrs. Drysdale, Mrs. (Judge) Archi- bald and Dr. John 'Hutchinson, with their families, all of whom reside in Montreal, are well and doing well. Dr. Hutchinson formerly Practisea in Bluevale and Brussels. The Hutchinson family is a credit to Blue - vale, and we are justly proud of them. - Mrs. Boyd and childeen, of the village of Loring, Parry Sound district, are visiting her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Kurtain,of Turn - berry.

A hest man is expected to take all cares off the hands Of the bridegroom, who is supposed to be io too absorbed a condition of mind to attend to himself. He must support him with his presence from the early morning of the auspicious day till all is over. He is responsible for bringing the happy man in time to the ceretnony,and -making sure that he has the ring safely about him, ready -to be produced at the proper moment. He stands beside him at that trying moment when the bride is due, but has not yet made her appearance. He takes charge of his hat, and puts it where it will be in security, and yet can be found again when it is wanted. He stands close at band through the ceremony; he sign's the register as a witness; he obtains the marriage certificate, if there is a copy made. -Finally, he helps the bridegroom's last struggles over his portmanteau, and ar- ranges that the -luggage is properly disposed of on the carriages. The duties of the best man are truly important ones. -1--- 4 ' Princess Beateice. The'Duke of Albany rides better than Prince Alexander of Bet- tenberg, even when the difference of age is considered.

The lates youthful royalty to take to the cycle .was Princess En, the little daughter of Princess Beatrice, and within a fortnight she was able to manage her machine very well. ---• What Happens in the Football 'Season.

The following story, which appears almost too wonderful to be true, is vouched for by Whit, the versatile Susquehanna journalist : ,About three miles frorn the Cascade, at a bend in the creek, is a low, marshy flat about an acre in size. The earth is of a greenish color, and no grass of any kind was - ever known to grow in it. During the dry - est season it is always wet. Uncle Tommy Barton went to Deposit a few months ago and, according to his habit, drank too much'. Late in the evening. he saddled his old gray mare and attempted to wend his way home. When the rider and the old mare came to the creek, either by the obstinacy of the mare or by accident the old animal went into the marah and spilled Uncle Tommy. The soft, damp earth, proved a soothing balm to the bald, aching head of the old man, and the excitement of the day was soon forgotten in a dreamless sleep. He was awakened next morning by the heat of the sun, and found half of his head and left side coVered with the mud in which he had been lying. - About two weeks after the accident Un- cle Tommy found that all that part of the body that had been touched with the mud covered with a fine growth of hair. Two weeks ago he came to Susquehanna and ex- hibited to a oumber of friends a, luxuriant growth of hair three and a half inches long, on the left side of the head. The other half was by contrast, more bald than ever, sa to speak. At first his story was laughed at, but since O bald,head is a source of great annoyance to its owner, a few of the natives who were sensitive over the loss of their hair began to view it in a different light, and for the past two weeks about 20 of them have been wearing skull caps, inlaid with mud from Uncle Tommy's swamp. Several of them are now able to show heads covered with a fine growth of young hair. The owner of the marsh thinks seriously of inclosing it with a high board fence, and putting the ,muck on the market. 2RO.F. AILEIN 2. BARNABY. , A reporter recently called at this famous seat of learning and was shown into the room of the president, Prof. Alvin P. Barn- aby. "When last seen by the reporter Prof. Barnaby was in delicate health. To -day he was apparently in the „best of health. In response to an inquiry the professor said: "Oh, yea, I aro much better than tor some time. I am now in perfect health, but my recovery was brought about in rather a peculiar way." "Tell me about it," said the reporter. "Well, to begin at the beginning," said the professor, "I studied too hard when at school, endeavoring to educate myself for the profession. After completing the the common course I came here, and graduated from the theological course. I entered the ministry and accepted the charge of a United Brethren church at a small place in Kent County, Michigan. Be- ing of an ambitious nature, I applied my- self diligently to my work and studies. In time 1 noticed that 'my health was failing. My trouble was indigestion, and this with otleer troubles brought on nervousness. " My physician prescribed for me for sone time, and advised me to try a change -of - t limate. I did as he rem:rested and was so e improved. Soon after, I came here as professor in physics and chemistry, and later was financial agent of this college. The change agreed with me, and for a while my health was better, but my duties were heavy, and again I found my trouble return- ing. This time it was more severe, and in the winter I became completely prostrated. I tried varines medicines and different phy- sicians. Finally, I was able to return to my duties. In the spring of 1896 Lwas elected preeident of the college. Again 1 had considerable work, and thet trouble, which had notbeen entirely cured, began to affect me, and last fall I collapsed. I had different doctors, but trill did me any good. Professor Bowman, who is p °lessor of lnat- ural science, told me of his xperience with Dr. Williams' Pink Pills f r Pale People and urged me to give them a trial, because they had benefitted him in a similar case„ and I concluded to try them. "The first box helped me, and the second gave great relief, such as I had never ex- perienced from the treatment of any physi- cian. After using six boxes of the medicine 1 was entirely cured. To -day I am perfect- ly well. I feel better and stronger than for years. 1 certainly recommend Dr. Williams' Pink Pills to similar sufferers and over- worked people. • Steel Wagon Tracks. . One of the most fertile causes of bad roads in many parts of the country is the .usei of the narrow tires on heavy farm and fre ght wagons. Eventually, when broad t tir s are adopted on all wagons, and care is exiircised in filling the ruts, the evil will be mitigated to a great extent, but in the meantime the United States Department of Agriculture is endeavoring to save the tountry roads from the quick deterioration MODERN CHICKEN COOPS. -The Once Tamilisr Laths Have Given Way to Wire Netting. Men whose memories go back, say, 40 years will remember that in those days when a man wanted to build a chicken coop he bought a bundle or two of laths and built it. There are mighty few lath chicken coops built nowadays. Even the smallest chicken raiser, Who keeps a few in his back yard, makes his coop or runway of poultry netting. The chicken house, or shelter, is made of boards, often of1 itwo thicknesses and with tarred paper between, for better protection from the weather, and with openings at the bottom and under the projecting roof for ventilation. Laths were cheap; poultry netting is still cheaper. It is made of steel wire, galvanized, in various widths and in Various sizes of mesh. The netting most commonly used is six feet wide, with a two inch meshr The chicken raiser sets up a frame and tacks the netting to it. Narrow nettings of smaller mesh are used in varioue ways to keep itt little chicks -sometimes a foot wide small mesh netting to rtui around at the base of the inolosure, the regular netting being set above it, thus increasing the total height of the netting. Sometimes the small mesh netting is run around inside of the regular netting, thus mak- ing the lower part of the netting doable. Sometimes it is used to make separate small inclosures. within. the large run- way and perhaps to make a number of small inclosures to keep separate broods of chicks apart. The narrow, small mesh netting is made up to three and a half feet in width. There is nowadays a use for wire net- ting in chicken houses. A netting with a square mesh is laid on the floor of chicken houses to keep out rats and mice. There are now many large establish- ments in this counLy for the raising of chickens for commercial purposes, foe market and for breeding, and there are as many men as ever who raise chickens at home, from the many who keep a few in the back yard, with a simple chicken house and coop, to raen who raise many chickens mad maintain an elaborate plant for their breeding and keeping. But under whatever conditions they are raised, chickens are rarely seen nowadays in coops mado of laths, such • were familiar 40 years ago. -New York Sun. • Science Utilizes all the Ox.

" Not many years ago," he says, "when an ox was slaughtered forty per cent, of the animal was wasted ; at the present time "nothing is wasted but it's dying breath." As but one-third of the weight of the ani- mal consists of products that can be eaten, " the question of utilizingthe waste is a seri- ous oni e.

The choicer parts of the fat make the basis of butterine; the intestines are used for sausage casings or bought by gold beaters. The undigested food in the stomach,which formerly cost the packers of Chicago thirty thousand dollars a year to remove and destroy, is now made in- to paper. These are bus few of the products of abattoirs.

No man ever failed of doing a plain duty because he lacked time for it. A man may fail to do a duty because he is unwilling or unready to take the time for it ; but in any event the time is there, he might have it if he would. Every one of us has, an. the old Indian said, "alt the time there is." There is no excuse on the plea of a lack of time. We may fail of doing many a thing we - would like to do; but if there is absolutely what is our supreme desire it is which is se corrinion.

Simultaneously the whole northwestern sky was instautly flooded with a hirid and 1 startlingly brilliant orange, across which floated clouds slightly darker, like flecks of liquid flame, while the west and southwest gleamed in shining lemon yellow. It was not like a sunset; it was too som- ber and terrible." EPPS'S - COCOA Barr's Dye Works REMOVED R. R.

To the Phrenoline Medicine Co., Ltd., Ott4wa. GENTLEMEN, -I hardly know how Fest to ezpress my appreciation of your valuable rheumatic remedy, Phrenoline. My son Gordon, who is 9 years old, has been a suf- ferer for the past two years; was so bad at times that he had to be carried about on a mattress ; was attended by two city doe - tore apparently without the slighteat bene- fit; spent 10 days at Caledouis, Springs, came home with no marked improvement; took three bottles of a Homeopathic remedy now being extensively advertised, which did not relieve hini in the knit. I was be- ginning to give up an hope of his recovery, when by chance I mentioned the case to a friend who strongly advised me to give Phrenoline a trial. I did so, with the result that when my boy had taken only half a bottle he was able to get on to his bicycle and ride like any ether boy around the block. I certainly feel that I cannot say too much in praise of your medicine and shall do all I can to make known its value to others. Yours very stearely, (Signed) REUBEN CLARE. Sold in Seaforth by J. S. ROBERTS, only, 1513242 The Queen Behind the Finger. Miss Lilian Bell, who is narrating her im- pressions of the Old World and its people for the Ladies' Home Journal, writes from London, in the November issue of that magazine: "1 have seen tbe Houses of Parliament and the Tower and Weetmin- ster Abby, and the World's Fair, but the most impressive sight I ever beheld is the upraised hand of a London policeman. I never heard one of them 'speak except when spoken to. But let one little blue-ceated man raise his forefinger and every vehicle on wheels stops, and stops instantly; stops in obedienc,e to law and order; stops without swearing or gesticulating or abuse; stops with no underhanded trying to drive out of line and get by on the other side; just stops, that is the end of it. And why? Because the Queen of England is behind that raised finger. Why, a London police- man has more power than our President. Even the Queen's coachmen obey that fore- finger. Understanding how to obey, that is what makes liberty. • "1 am the most flamboyant of Americans, A V c,2 g otg ' - C4 0 (DC) CD P-1 Pai et- p ta'l 4 0 2„, ee) paw Ca 8 1-' Z cr) ro 0 et- .-4- td .CD 0 0•L !et- „el cs, W 1:71 M.
