An Industrloas Goose
We have been hearing ,about folks
having ripe raspberries ji November,
but Myetle, McClure, just east of Bete

the third time this Year. There were
thirteen eggs the first time, eleven
eggs in the second laying," and now
1VIrs. Goose, is laying for the third

Ladies' Aid of Knox Church, and eery -
ed at lontg tables in the lecture room
of the church. It was a record attend-
ance.Those waiting in the auditor-

a -t the tables of about one bundled
and twenty-five was taxed to the lim-
it for more than three hour, supper
'being served from about 5.15 p.m. un-
til 8.30 p.m.. The unanimous verdict
etas that it was 'one of the best sup -

Weasel Won Race .Against ,Death
Several of our older 'citizens turn-
ed back the pages of their lives on
Tuesday mpening when. for ten min-
ntes they tried unsuccessfully to cap-
ture a weasel on Main Street. This
slippery little csutomer poked his
nose out from under A. .J. Walkees.
store, apparently bent on crossingthe
road, but what a surprise it got. Its
actions; were noticed and the race was
.072. When it found its, path 'blocked,
it headed up the street, „ender and
around cars, with four or five 'in, pur-
suit; by the time it reached the post
effice a dozen or so had joined in'the
chase after this brown and white ras-
cal. It went behind the post office,
changed its mind and once more head -
red for the street, again under and
around cars until it reached George
Williams' store. Then it headed for
laome under Mr. Walker's store, but
-what a time it had. At least twenty-
four were now after it, but corner it
they could not. Every time the fel-
low with the broOna took anwing it
did a pivot that would put Andy Blair
to shaane. Under' cars„ back and for-
ward across the road it went, but
try as they would the hunters were
foiled. At last it reached its origin-
al starting point and safety.—Wing-
ham Advance -Times.
Safe Stolen From Brussels Firm
Safe 'robbers are again.active in this
district. On Sunday night the safe
from the office of the Huron Produce
Association at Brussels was carted
2.,way. It was found in a swamp near
Ifertfryn with the door blown off.
About $50 in: silver was taken but
about $1200 in cheques was left be-
hind.- It is reported that some of the
cheques were strewn about t h e
swamp.--Wingham Advance -Times.
Where Crops Fit In
There are some crops which are
not well suited to vety fertile soils.
Buckwheat, for example, often pro-
duces too much straw and. too little
grain 'on rich soils, especially those
soils which are very high in nitrogen.
<Oats are likely to lodge badly on
soils too rich in nitrogen. , On the
other hand, a fertile soil is essential
for profitable yields of wheat and bar-
ley. Rye will grow well on rich soils
but it is also a particularly good crop
for light infertile soils. Turnips re-
iire a fairly fertile soil, but, if the
soireie unbalanced in its fertility by
having an over -abundance of nitrogen
In comparison with other elements of
fertility, there will be luxuriant tops
but small roots.

1880 liabilities did not exceed ;5,000.
The township had a number of
pleasing and thriving villages., the
main oneeof these being Londesbor-
ough, on the Clinton and Wingham
road, and a station on the Lake Bur
on & Buffalo Railway. The first set-
tler was R. Wright, who located on.
lot 26, in the tenth concession, and
*built the first log house on' the cor-
ner where a thotel later stood.. Among
the first settlers were William Her-
rington and Francis Brown. The man
wee) laid out the village was Thomas
Hsigyardl, who was ,of English dee-
ceet and had, formerly been a resi-
dent on the estate of Lord Londes-
borough near Pocklington, in York-
shire. The villagewas first known
as' Hagyarclis ,Corners.
Settlers were short of money and
as was usual in other parts, several
set up hotels for the accommodation
of travellers. Almost the first of
these was Humphrey Snell, lots 26
and 27, concession seven, ;whose place
was the' "Travellers' Rest" for a
number of years. Snell was a mech.
talked -about man, and it is said' that
the first question travellers asked
when they came to ''"Rattenbury's
Corners," now Clinton, was to where
they would•be able to find Humphrey
Snell. Rattenbury's Corners then con-
tained a log tavern, log store and
same half-dozen other ;log buildings.
A question asked is the reason for
so many hotels at such an early date,
a question that is answered by James
Irvin, a pioneer of Hullett. He says:
"Consider a ;trip from Wingham to
Clinton,. Suppose I am a teamster

market, starting at 4 o'clock in the

horses' beads drooping over the tail-
board of the sleigh immediately

-"Whisky was free and if was con-
eidered essential to a hard working
man as his daily bread. By the time
the string of 'teams reached the first
tavern, which was about half -way be-
tween Belgrave and Wingham, there
were always a certain amount who
were feeling either the pangs, of hen -
ger or need of .something to warm.

THAN YOU THINK
It Causes Discomfort, May
Even Lad to Disease
Constipation* is not a condition
to be treated lightly. Continued
neglect of regular habits of ebmi-
-nation -tend to lower your teals -
tame. Then there is the actual
discomfort. For- constipation* is
one cause of headaches, poor appe-
tite, listlessnees.
• Common constipation usually de-
velops when you eat meals that
lack sufficient "bulk." Your,system
fails to get needed internal exer-
cise. Fortunately, today, yon have
a generous source of effective
"bulk" in Kellogg's ALL -BRAN. .
Within the body, the "bulk" in
ALL -BRAN absorbs moisture, and
forms a spft mass, which gently
cleanses the system. This natural
laxative food also supplies vitamin.
B and contains iron.
Serve ALI-BRAN as a cereal, with
milk or cream, or cook into muffins,
breads, etc. Two tablespoonfuls
daily are usually sufficient. Stub-
born cases may require ALL -BRAN
oftener. If not relieved this way,
consult your doctor.
ALL -BRAN is gUaranteed by the'
Kellogg Company as an effective
laxative food for constipation.*
Sold by all grocers. Made by Kel-

New Wrinkles in
Dried Fruit
suntmer it is well to crowd 'onto
the menu all the fresh fruits and
fresh vegetables that we possibly can.
It would be a lost opportunity to
serve canned or dried food when
fresh was available. But as s,00rt• as
fresh fruits become less plentiful on
the market and are higher in price,
then a thougtht should be given to the
food value, the comparative cost, and
the uses for dried fruits.
Dried fruits are the most concen-
trated form of fruits and are econ
omical to buy. They are fully ripen-
ed fresh fruits with the water and,
in most instances, the seed, pit or
core removed. The widely used meth-
od of removing the water content of
the fresh fruit is by sun drying, but
it is also done by the dehydrating
method, which is rapid drying by art-
ificially heated air. From three to
seven pounds of fresh fruit are re-
quired:for one pound of dried fruit.
The storage of dried fruits is im-
portant. They should be kept at
normal humidity. Itis not advisable
to keep them under refrigeration but
they should be kept in a cool place,
out of •draughts and away from radia-
tors, stoves, etc. The cut fruits, such
as apricots, peaches, pears and apples
darken when they are exposed to
heat. Dried fruits take on odors
readily, so should be kept away from
strong -smelling foode.•
Apricots are one of the most in-
teresting .of the dried -.fruits. There
are many ways in which they can be
used in cookery'. Because they have
a truly distinctive flavor they add a
zest to almost any dish. Stewed, they
are very good at breakfast with ready
to eat cereal, or served for dessert,
for the school lunch or for a, bedtime
supper.
Allow six to nine apricot thalves for,
each' serving. -One pound of dried'
fruit ishenough. for 12 servings. Wash
the fruit, cover with water and cook
gently from thirtY minutes to one
hour. Add sugar to taste during the
last five minutes of cooking. One-
half cup of sugar is usually sufficient
for one pound of apricots.
Pickled Dried Apricots
1 cup large dried apricots
Water
1 cup sugar
3 lahlespoons vinegar
12 whole cloves
teaspoon niustard seed 1*
Stick cinnamon..
Wash the apricots. Boil gently for
10 minutes, in water to cover. Add
sugar, vinegar, spices andcook until
the apricots are tender but still bold
their shape. Fill small sterilized jars
with the .aprieots. Cover with syrup
and seal.
Note: Prunes may be prepared in
the same way.
Next we have a recipe for apricot
bran bread which is a deliciously dif-
ferent loaf to serve at ,any meal but
is particularly suitable for tea swill-
Wiches or to serve with the salad at
luscheon.

Boys' Speaking Contests
An alteration has been made in the

"Youth in Agreculture," and at first it
was planned to have at least one ad-
dress delivered each evening in the
arena of the Fair. It has, now been
decided that ,the plablie speaking con-

HRIFTY, hard-working, conscientious
citi-
zens are the backbone of Canada.
They are the real owners of the bonds that
finance the Governments of the nation—federal,
provincial and municipal.'
It is their savings that are invested in the mort-
gages that build the homes and develop. the farms
and industries of the Dominion.
Three and a half million of such citizens have
banded themselves together as policyholders in
the great co-operative business of Life Insurance.
• 71
Through their hard-earned savings, these policy..
holders have built up an insurance estate of over
six billion dollars for themselves and their
dependants.
To protect this estate, they have two billion
dollars invested in the best securities that Canada,
its governments and municipalities, its farms and
industries, have to offer.
Every section of the Dominion has its share of ,
these millions of dollars that policyholders have
invested in bonds and mortgages. Other millions
have been similarly invested by trust, mortgage,
loan and banking institutions, vvliose.funds also
represent the savings of millions of individual
Canadians.
Ombehalf.of its policyholders, and other institu-
tions and organizations whose investments repre-
sent the hard-earned savings of thrifty citizens, Life
Insurance expects that the terms upon which these
bonds were sold, and these mortgages accepted,
shall be observed.

adjustments have been made again and again
during recent years.
