A number of the village people spent a very pleasant afternoon on Victoria day, on the Manse grounds, playing tennis. A January blizzard raged all day Monday, May 27th, a thing which even the oldest inhabitant never saw before. A number of young people from Whitechurch and vicinity held a pic- nic at the river on the 12th, and spent a very pleasant afternoon. Some people were suggesting that the poet should get to work again, but we think that Monday would baffle even a poet's descriptive powers. Niagara. Will..

Last week a series of Sabbath School Institutes were held at central points in Presbytery of Maitland. On Thursday, May 30th, the Institute was held in the lecture -room of St. An- drew's church, Wingham. Sessions were held during the aftZrnoon at 2.30 and in the evening at 8 o'clock. Rev. D T. L. McKerroll, Convener of the Sabbath School Committee, out- lined the object of the meeting. Rev. J. C. Robertson, General Secretary for Sabbath Schools, was the principal speaker. There was a very good at- tendance of teachers and officers, and a considerable number took part in the discussions. The following sub- jects were discussed—"How to in- crease the enrollment of the School," "How to secure greater regularity in attendance," "How may we better in- terest the parents in our work," "The Adult Bible Class movement," "The Primary Class and its improvement," "Grading the School," "The Home De- partment," "A teacher's encourage-, ments and discouragements." In the evening Session the following topics were taken up—"The Supreme Aim of the Sabbath School," "The attendance of scholars at the services of the church," "The place of special days, such as Children's Day, Decision Day," etc., "Selection of teachers and teachers training course." WINOHAM COURT OF REVISION. Rev. and Mrs. Findlay were in God- erich last week, attending Conference. Mr. and Mrs. Halpenny of Wingham occupied the parsonage until their return. . The funeral of the late Dr. Crawford Martin was one of the largest ever seen in Wawanosh, which fact alone was an eloquent testimony to the po- pularity and esteem in which the de- ceased was held by the entire commu- nity. The funeral was under the di- rection of the Whitechurch Court of Foresters, of which the deceased was a member. We notice that there is a Bruce Telephone Co. formed, with the object of establishing a rural telephone sys- tem. What is wrong about White- church getting a telephone service? Tap the line at the twelfth and run it over here, establish a central, and con- nect with all the farmers round about at $12 a year each. It would he han- dy, wouldn't it, and up to date too. Testing cream by the Babcock sys- tem commenced at the Whitechurch factory on June 1st. The cream will now be gathered by weight instead of by measurement, and patrons will re- ceive their test only once a month. The Babcock is the most accurate test yet invented, and while it will mean more work both for drawers and but- ter -maker, it is expected that the pa- trons will receive more accurate re- turns than heretofore.

The collection was in aid of the Deaconess fund, and will go to- wards the new Home, which will be built in the Metropolitan square, To- ronto. The people of this vicinity were moved with sorrow when the sad news reached them that Mrs. Edward Cooper, 2nd con., Howick, had passed away to her home of many mansions.

With the advance of years the vital functions of the body slow down. In consequence the organs of secretion suffer, the action of the bowels are lessened and there is no longer healthy circulation. The brain is con- gested with blood, giddiness, tremb- ling and cold extremities are common. No assistance is so potent as Dr. Hamilton's Pills. By their direct action on the stomach, liver and kid- neys they cause an immediate change. Mild, free from gripe, strengthening and cleansing the whole system, no medicine is so valuable in old age as Dr. Hamilton's Pills of Mandrake and Butternut. Try these Pills, 25c per box at all dealers. 4 ITCH, Mange, Prairie Scratches and every form of contagious Itch on hu- man or animals cured in 30 minutes by Wolford's Sanitary Lotion. Sold by A. L.

To Improve Your Appearance Retain your youthful freshness so that no ono can remark, 'she is past her prime." To appear younger and more attractive than the average woman, you'must be particular that your HAIR shows no sign of being thin short or scrawny. A DORENWEND TRANS- FORMATION,. POMPADOUR, . WAVE, CURL on SWITCH will substitute nature's defects. Even if you have plenty of your own hair, these light and airy artifices may be worn over it, saving you the worry of ar- ranging your hair in the prevailing style. Your hair can be perfectly matched in color and texture. so that detection is out of the question. Consult Prof. Dorenwend Yew DURING THIS VISIT MAN TO MAN—ABOUT BALDNESS. If you are bald, or partially so, you must realize that it makes you look old. Not- withstanding the desire to have back your one time busby lilted of hair, you hesitate before wearing a natural hair covering simply becauseou imagine it is going to be y noticed by others. Now you never made a greater mistake. Thousands of men, who thought the same as you do, aro today wearing a -DORENWEND PATENT TOUPEE and instead of carrying the handicap, that baldness proved to them, they are now enjoying the advantages of "looking young"—and that is what counts today in the business and social life. Our Patent Toupee is a featherweight facsimile of your own natural hair and may be worn without fear of detection --impossible to remove from the head unless at 'will— not the least clumsyor tnefarortoble They act as a proicetion, preventing colds and catarrh, so common to bald men.
