The players were to be over 45 years of age. The game re- sulted in an easy victory for Motherwell. Mr. Borland, though nearly 60 years of age, was one of those that did the best playing an the ground. Power to you old boy. May you long'be able to participae in and enjoy the manly sports of your youth.. A SERIOUS FIRE —For some months a fire has been smouldering on Mr. George Lowe's farm, 2nd conceseion of Usborne, but never reached serious nropertions until Saturday last when a stiff breeze fanned the burning embers into a blaze. It soon Om- municated with the etubble in the field in which the oats had been cut, and before anything could be done, the fire, which spread with terrible rapidity, burnei over the whole field of fifteen acres, together with two acres of spring wheat, destroying the entire crops of the seventeen acme and one hundred rods of rail fence. Neigh-, bors turned out in large numbers to battle with the destroying element and finally got it under Control, but it was with consider- able d•ifil .alt they saved the barn and other bu'Iding • One man had his hands terribly lv :•ned Idle plowing a furrow to save the 1. rn, while the hair on a team of horses was singed off. The loss to Mr. Lowe will he between $300 and $400. A VETERAN'. —The residence of Mr. Rob- ert Creary, sr., was the scene cif a pleasant gathering on the evening of Saturday, the 12th inst., when his friends of earlier and more recent acquaintances, assembled on the occasion of the 80th anniversary cf his birth- day to tender their cordial congratulations on his actaining to so ripe, and yet vigor- ous old aebc, -and to express kindly and sin- cere wishes for its happy returns. The ven- erable gentleman received his many visitors in his usual simple, but courteous Manner, and his family clid their part with credit to make the time to be of pleasing memories. After the company had partaken a the good cheer amply provided at the hospit- able board, the Rev. William Stout took the position of chairman and referring to the object of the gathering, spoke on the dignity of old age, and the honor especially due to the evening of a long and useful life, such as Mr. Creary's had been. Mr. John McCurdy followed, recounting in a happy and interesting speech his long acquaiutance and' pleasant associations of more than 30 years, and Mr. F. Davis, sr., of Biddulpb, also spoke of the eeteem, in which, during the years long past, the aged gentleman is held by his many friends and neighbors. Mr. Creary settled in this locality over 50 years ago, and is still on the original home- atead, one of the now few but interesting survivors of those early yeara of pioneer life ID this region. He has been tall his life a consistent and pioua member of the church of Englend and a constant ettendant at every means of Grace. His eminent quali- ties of heart and mind and generous liber- ality have endeared him to his fellow chris- Mans, whilst his ability and fidelity in offices of public trust, which he has so worthily filled, have won the confidence and respect of hie fellow citizensgenerally, and of him it may be said: "Through the sequestered vale of rural life The venerable patriarch guileless holds The eventtenor of his way." • FOR internal or external uae HAGYARD'S YEL- LOW OIL cannot be excelled as a pain relieving and soothing remedy for all pain. Crediton. Crv-re tiorADAV.—Thursday of last week was our civic holiday. Seven 'bus loads with a large number of other carriages went to Grand Bend.

WHAT THE COUNCIL DOES. —At a meet- ing of the township council, held on August 2ist, the reeve reported that he had het a job of repairing on Jobb' s bridge to Meeere. Duff & Stewart. Mr. Musgrove reported that he had Id a job of gravelling on B. line to Wm. Churchill at $20; job completed and recommended payment. Mr. Mitchell reported having let a job of repairs on Lin - ton's bridge, to Messrs. Duff and Stewart, at $12 per thousand feet of lumber; council the brain bells fix their intelligence and store it up sae enemory. We get familiar illustrations of this fact in many affairs of life, If I go to hear au opera for the first time I am unable at the end ef the perfor- mance to remember S, nbte say of the chorus which has attracted and pleaSed me. But days afterwardI may Suddenly catch my- self unconsciously in full song whistling it on the street. My brain, I suppose,hasde- manded time to makeits little arrange - meats for storing up and fixieg the multi- tude �f impressions it received at the the. etre. Once.fixed all goes well, and memory is the not of calling forth from the brain - cells the information they have collected and retained.—Dr. Andreiv Wilson. • Children and Their Stockings. Having taught the children to leave the stockings wrong side Out at night the next step is to instruct them how to put them on properly in the morning—viz, to put the left hand down into the toe, the right hold. ing the heel, then draw the foot inside the leg. !Now the foot clan be slipped into the stockingiand the leg carefully. worked up over [the foot, ankle and leg, care being taken to have the seam straight, for on a child in short skirts or one in knee pants a crooked seam looks bed.—Good Housekeep- ing. • Montague, of Dunville, Cured of UlceratedlItching Piles. Mr. Robert Montague'of Danville, Oat , writes :— " Was troubled with Itehing Piles for five years and was so badly ulcerated they were very painful, so much so Quit I oould not sleep. I tiled almost every med'oine known whtn I was recommended to uee Dr, Chase's Ointment. I purohaeed a box, and from the first application got relief. Have used two boxes, and am now completely cured." • The Care of the Eyes. On arising in the morning the eyes should be bathed gently in cold water—twenby " passes " are said to be decidedly strength- ening. While using them , closely they should be rested at intervals of an laour or two, for the strain of constant reading or sewing i4 like that of extending the arms at a certain height immovable. Imagine then the taxing of the eyes, which cannot com- plain save after years of irreparable neglect. - When dust settles in the eyee, warm water will smooth them of any inflammation; rose water is extremely refreshing, but it should be bought in small quantities, as it keeps but a short time. Fly() cents' worth will give a daily eye bath for several weeks. Tea leaves and alum -water were the eye tonics which our grandfathers used '• but in these modern days of absolutely hygienic and antiseptic simplicity water, especially ID a distilled form, is coneidered powerful enough.—Harper's Bazar. • Miscellaneous New's Notes. —The many friends of Mr. and Mrs. W. B. Waterbury, formerly manager of the Mitchell braneh of the Merchant's Bank, will deeply regret to learn of the death of their youngest son, Valentine, the said event having taken place recently at St. Thomas. He was in the 14th year of his age. - —Mr. ,James McPherson, customs clerk ID the Grand Trunk Railway freight office at Detroit, was united in marriage thee, a short time ago to Miss Mayme Kruger of Detroit, and are visiting at the home of the groom's father Mr. Daniel Mc- Pherson, of Stratford. nc—Mrs. Wm. Steele, of Downie, and moth - et of Mr. James Steele, barrister, of Strat- ford, died on Saturday, 12th inst., in her eeventy second year. A complication of de- seaee was theeause of death. The deceased was a native of Scotland, but came to Canada ID 1850. — On the Old David,Sherk homestead, op- posite Doon, eounty of 'Waterloo, there is said to be the oldest apple tree in Waterloo county. The late Joseph Sherk, when he emigrated from Penneylvania in 1800, brought with him six apple trees, which he planted. Only 0118 survives'which is still vigorous at the great age of 101 years. —Apple buyers, who have been making a tour of the district aroued Brantford, re- port that the apples are Of a good quality, and think that the quantity of apples suit- able for packing and shipping will be about equal to that of last year. The trees in some orchards are loaded with fruit, while those in others have seareelY any at ell. The orchards are suffering' from lack of rain, which makes the -fruit smaller than would otherwise be the case. ' — Mr. Ed. Phillips, of Toronto, an ex - Galtonian, arriyed in Galt a few nights ago, from Berlin, acOompanied by his mother, a lady 74 years oftago. "Ed" is taking his holidays, and is spending them a la autom- obile—that is to say he is touring the 'Coun- try in a horseless carriage, and he finds it an extremely pleataut way to put in a couple ot weeks. The two rode from Toronto to Berlin in about six hours, and only four gal- lons—of gasoline, from which the power for the vehicle is generated, were consumed on the journey. The carriage weighs about 1,400 pounds, and will travel about the or- dinary hountry road at the rate of 18 or 20 miles an hour, climbing hills as'easily as go- ing on the level. The heavy pneumatic tires prevent, any jarring'. — Mr. Archie Martin, of Aylnier, Quebec, who int out to the Klondike over a year ago, r turned home last week. Speaking of Dawson City, Mr. Martin said that there were far too many people there. The legal fraternity are coming in by the score, and soon they will have to get out or else take to a pick and shovel. There are a large r of doctors in Dawson. In fact, as many doctors as patients, with ult that, a number of them have been led to seek work with a pick and to keep from starving. It is no un - n sight to see half a clam doctors g among the laboring men on the Li ction of roads. A few months ago ellows came to Dawson, said Mr. , all dressed to kill. They put out hingles and started to practise The e did not materialize, and, as their ran out, they had to accept the only wey of living, that was by hard work. las- Mamie Booker, of London, aged -two years, took paris green a few Loss of Memory. Talking of the brain reminds me that lately in London a very curious case of loss of memory was met with. A man was found walking about the streets unable to tell his name or where he lived. His mind was a blank also, for recent events and even the names of his relatives had been for- gotten. Trotted round a district of London he thought he could recognize; he failed to stimulate his memory, and it was only by a happy chance that on his doctor calling with him at the local police it was found that the missing man had been enquired for. He was taken back to the hospital, Where, I believe, his case is still under observation. Events which happened in his early days were remembered, land title is a frequent occurrence in all cases of this kind, as it is in old people who forget the things of yes- terday, but remember those of fifty years ago. The explanation of such lapses is of a purely theoretical matter. But what may be supposed to happen is, that the brain. cells in active use are inhibited or paralysed in their action, as, for instance, by 'shook of 'some kind, while those which dominate I our brain power a of long ago come in th front as it, were With their ancient recollec- tions. It is knovvn that after a blow on th head a man will often forget all recent events arid will never remember what happene foe some time before he received the injury while his memory for events long before th shock reinadne unimpaired. This fact seem to point to another thing—namely, that i receiving and storing up our impressions w all demand a certain interval during whic psIR. A. vv. pliA$E'S REMEDIES.

The younglady said once or twice she did not Ii care o go. Her parents regarded her ob- jectio e as a mere whim, and urged that she should go. They were diecussing the trip in the morning when Mamie moistened her ngere, put them in a dish of paris greer and touched them to her tongue, say- ing, lalf laughingly, "There, now rit be sick and won't have to go to Buffalo." In abou half an hour she showed signs of sick- ness, but she insisted that she was not very sick, and tile family, thinking that she had only aken a little of the poison, and be- lievi g she would be better shortly, deferred calli g in a doctor.

I ; 41i INDIANS INDIANS CAPTURE A SAFE. Dissonst of Sonia Apsteshee With g.7,000 In Their Possession. "The Apache Indians had a hard nut to crack when they got hold of our pay- master's safe," said the ex -sergeant 'or cavalry- who was asked about his experi- ences in Arizona. ; "On this particular trip I was detailed with six men to es- cort him. He and his clerk rode in an ambulance drawn by mules, and of course- the escort were mounted. We were in camp one night between two forts when we wore jumped by at least 100 Indians. ,•TheY kilted two men be- fore we got out, and of course the- am- bulance was left in, their hands. , "The paymaster's safe contained about p00 in greeebaclee, It weighed home - thing like 400 pounds and worked with a combination. Nona of the redskins had ever examined ono at close qnar- ters before, but they all knew what it was hauled about 4rom post to post tor, and of course they were anxious to get hold of the money. They first ponuded off the knob with stones, thinki g •the door could then be pried open. It vas a failure, of course,- and then they tried their tomahawks Oli the chilled steel, hoping to cut a hole in it. The4i .had seen. iron softened by fire, and the1 third move was to give that safe a three hours' roasting. 'Stickily for UnclSam - it was fireproof. They threw big 'rocks upon it While it was still hot, and t was dented here and there, but they w re as far from the moneY as ever. After work- ing away fon a night and a day th, safe was dragged up the side of a mo betain and tumbled over :a precipice 20 feet high. They expected to see it buroti open, but the only damage done was•to break one of the wheels oft It was lelti lying where it fell for three or four day, and the gang then returned and carrie it to the river and let It soak for a whole week. It was thonght that this ,would soften it up, and gPeat wee their chagrin when baffled agaio. Then they tried gunpowder, but knowing nothieg of blasting they brought about an explosion which burned half a dozeu warriors and left the safe as good es e'er. "The Indians were footing- with that strong box for a neonth er more. They masted it again, and they gave it another fall, and no burglars ever Worked harder to get at the long green. 'They failed to get at the inside, hciwever, and in disgust they tumbled it into a deep -ravine and left it. It was 14 Months later that peace came, and we accidentally got track of the safe. An ambulance and a guard were sent for it, aid we 'found it lying in the bed of a creek with a great pile of driftwood piled ;around it. It was a lonesome looking old safe, as you may suppose, and nobody had the slightest hope that 'the moneY had escaped fire and water. When we 40t it to the fort and blew off the door, we found the $7,000 as snug as you please. &me of the bills were a little tender from the heat and some had grown moldy feom the water, but Uncle Sam redeemed every dollar, and the paymaster was made happy again. A novel application of the electric nace tor is its combination with a portable planing machine to plane decks and floors. • An electric arc lamp for use under wa- ter—a consummation that has baffled electricians 'for years—has been produced by a German firm. Los Angeles draws its electricity from a turbulent mountain river 90 miles away. -The 12,000 horsepower runs street cars and machinery and supplies the city with light and heat.
