Kincardine, Ont., July 19, -Last
evening John Millar, south line, while
engaged in drawing in hay, fell back-
wards, alighting on his head on a
beam of the mow. The head was
split open and the brain exposed. Mr.
Millar never regained consciousness
after being picked up. IIe died a few
hours later. Deceased was a well-
known and highly esteemed farmer,
61 years of age. He. leaves a widow
and two children.
Stratford, Ont., July 1S, -Wearied
of life and disheartened by his con-
tinuation of misfortune, Thomas B.
Rice, a young Englishman, attempted
to end his life last night, about 11
o'clock by cutting his throat with a
razor. He was found lying in a ditch
with a razor in his hand, and his neck
and shirt front bespattered with
blood. The cut was very slight. The
young man has been very unfortunate
since his arrival in Stratford, eighteen
months ago, suffering from muscular
rheumatism and being unable to
work.
-Probably the oldest Orangeman to
turn o)it on the 12th in Canada was
Jas. Graham, of Cheltenham, who
was at Streetsyille to celebrate. He is
03 years of age, and has been 77 years
a member of the Order. Bro, Graham
was presented with a silk hat. He is
still hale and hearty. William
Trew, senior, of Hope township,
Durham County, for 70 years an
Orangeman, and now 88 years of
age, was in the procession at Mill-
brook on the 12th. He was born in
Armagh, Ireland, and he has four
sons and some twenty grandsons, all
members of the Orange order.
-The total immigration into Cana-
da for the month of May was 45,077, as
compared with 37,191 for May of last
year, an increase of 8,480 or 23 per
cent. The immigration through
ocean ports was 38,755 and from the
United States 0,922. The total immi-
gration into Canada from the 1st pf
July, ]410(i, to tile 31st of May, 1907,
was 214,3M, and for the same period
of the fiscal year 1905-06 it was 161,744,
an increase of 42,051. The immigra-
tion into Canada for the ave months
of this calendar year was 131,770, as
compared with 100,138 for the same
months of 1900, an increase of 25,043.
--Reports to hand in Ontario prove
the oat crop in the lake shore district
east of Toronto and all through West-
ern Ontario to be most unpromising,
to put it mildly. The grain has as-
sumed a reddish-yellow tinge, caused
by the appearance of a rusty color up-
on the leaves. This is cite, we feel as,
sured, to the depredations of a small
aphis or green loose tllat sticks the
sap from the leaves and causes the
blotches of rust to appear, Upon ex-
amination of some fields near Toronto
numerous green hugs were found up-
on the affected stalks, The field at-
tacked has its growth checked, the
leaves assume a rusty color, and in
badly Infested places it looks as if a
fire or frost has caused the destruc-
tion. Some fields east of Toronto will
not be half a crop. The stalk, being
deprived of the leaf sap, is unable to
send a vigorous shot -blade.

Among the new barns raised recent-
ly are those of A. Doig, N, Plant and

Rev. J. Musser, pastor of Fordwich
and Newbridge, is taking a needed
vacation of three Sundays.
Geo. Burnett bought a fine young
mare off Win. Scott the other day for
$200. John Ireuger took a span to.
Wingham the other day for which he
got nearly $100.
Shortly after returning from church
on Sunday morning John McLean, of
Howick, hada paralytic stroke. We
are pleased to state that at last re-
ports he was improving.
Mrs. Agnes Scott of Wingham, who
was visiting relatives here last week,
bought a house from Mr. Porterfield
in Gorrie and purposes moving to that
village in the near future.
The many friends of Miss Lizzie
Spotton, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. A.
Spotton, 6th con., will lie pleased to
know that she successfully under-
went a critical operation at the Strat-
ford hospital.
Howick Orangemen report a very
successful celebration in Arthur,
There were over 200 tickets sold at
Fordwich Station. Howick district
was represented by Newbridge, Orange
Hill, Gorrie and Fordwich lodges.
Isaac Croft, son of Mr. John Croft,
who left home 23 years ago, when a
school boy, visited his parents a few
weeks ago. On his arrival at his old
home, none of the family knew him as
he had changed in appearance so
much.
Howick Voters' List has been dis-
tributed. See that you are on. There
are 1,198 names on the list, of whom
662 are qualified to act as Jurors. As
the next Dominion and Provincial
elections may be on this list, every
Howick voter should be alert to see if
he is on the list properly ; if not, see
to having it corrected.
Mr. Laird of Lakelet will have one
of the most commodious barns in
Howick and if good timber counts it
will stand for aye. Thursday's rain,
while doing the country in general a
whole lot of good,' proved rather dis-
astrous to Mr. Laird as the work was
impeded and a delay had to take place
till Saturday, when it was finished.
It is one of the most wonderfully con-
structed barns in the township. It
covers an immense lot of ground, and
will hold all the stuff that will grow
on 300 acres. -
-A few weeks ago, Alex. McDon-
ald, Huron township, had an opera-
tion performed on him that was some-
what interesting as well as delicate.
From his right hip was extracte4} a
Boer bnlllet from a Malmsey rifle. It is
a little over an inch, in length and
about one sixth of an inch in diameter
converging toward a blunt point. It
entered his body on the left side on
the 2lst of March, 1902, during the
battle of Hart's River in which so
many Canadians lost their lives.
Daring the five years in which Mr.
McDonald carried this bullet in his
body, he suffered at times and feels
great relief now that he is rid of it.
He was taken to the field hospital
after the battle and remained there
three weeks. They wanted to send
him to the general hospital, but he
feared fever there, and was spoiling to
get into the scrap again, so he begged
off and went on the trek again,
though still suffering from his wound.
He was in most of the Hart's River
fight and topk a part in rounding up
the last of the 13,oer forces,
A Cordial invitation To Disease.
This is an apt description of consti-
pation, It's an unnatural condition
to begin with, and it's more, because
it brings about blood deterioration,
interferes with digestion, renders you
susceptible to infections diseases and
causes anaemia. Not so much a pur-
gative as a natural stimulant to the
bowels is what you need. You get it
in Dr. Hamilton's Pills which in-
crease liver activity, restore the
bowels to perfect action and postively
cure constipation and its attendant
evils. Insist on having only Dr.
Hamilton's Pills of Mandrake and
Butternut, 25c per box at all dealers.
Good Caro Sheller For Z5c.
A. marvel of efficacy and prompt-
ness, a remedy that does cure corns
and warts. Its name is Putnam's
Corn Extractor. Contains no acids,
never pains, gives lasting satisfaction.
Insist on "Potnarn'e" only, It's the
bast.

WESTERN FAIR, LONDON.
The Western Fair, London, Ont.,
promises this year to eclipse all re-
vious records. As this is the 40th Ex-
hibition without a break the manage-
ment are anxious that it should be a
great success. Entries are already
coming in quite fast and considerable
space has been allotted in the different
buildings. A number of improve-
ments have been made in the grounds
and buildings this year for the com-
fort and convenience of exhibitors
and visitors, The Prize List has been
carefully revised and added to, Kna-
henshne's Airship will make ascen-
sions daily. The Dankmar-Schiller
troupe and the Ernesto Sisters will
thrill those who see them with their
daring acts. White & LeMart and
the Les Aribos will instruct and
amuse, and with music by the best
available bands and the grand display
of Fireworks each evening followed
by that magnificent Pyrotechnical
display "The Siege of Gibraltar," will
make one of the best programmes
ever presented to, the public at any
previous Western Fair. Remember
the dates, Sept. 6th to 14th. Reduced
rates on all railroads, Write the
Secretary, Western Nair Office, Lon-
don, for all particulars as to space,
prize lists, programmes, etc., and

WHEN i HAVE TIME.
\Vhen I have time, so many things I'll
do
To make life happier and more
air,
For those whose lives are crowded
now with care,
I'll help to lift them from their low
despair,
When I have time.
When I have time, the friend I love so
well,
Shall know no more the weary,
toiling day;
I'll lead her feet in pleasant paths al
ways,
And cheer her heart with words of
sweetest praise,
When I have time.
When you have time, the friend you
hold so dear
May be beyond the reach of all your
sweet intent,
May never know that you so kindly
meant
To all her heart with sweet con-
tent,
When you had time.
Now is the time. Ah, friend no long-
' er wait,
To scatter loving smiles and words
of cheer,
To those around whose lives are now
so dear,
That may not meet you in the corn-
ing_ year,
Now is the time.

Mr. W. Jackson, of the Jackson
Mfg. Co., after an absence of seven
weeks in the old country, arrived
home on Tuesday, very much improv,
ed in health.
Mr, John Hartley, principal at the
Blyth school, has been engaged as suc-
cessor to Mr. W. R. Lough at a salary
of $900. He has a fine reputation as a
teacher. He is a brother of Rev. Mr,
Hartley, rector of the English Church,
Blyth,
Mr, D. Cantelon has let the contract
for the making of from 10,000 to 15,000
apple barrels to Mr. W. Anent of Sea -
forth, the barrels to he made in Clin-
ton in order to give employment to
local men. Mr. Ament has rented the
building formerly used at Fair's mill
for a cooper shop. Mr. W. McElroy
of Blyth will also make five thousand
or so.
Acting for the firm of McWilliams
& Everett of Toronto, Mr, D. Cantelon
has bought the brick building near the
G. T. R. station in which the Knitting
Company was formerly located. It
will be fitted up as an evaporator with
the most up-to-date machinery. We
understand that it is the firm's inten-
tion also to add to the buildings and
put in a canning plant.
A special meeting in Huron Pres-
bytery was held in Willis church on
Tuesday last to consider an invitation
extended to Rev. E. H. Sawers, of
Brucefield, by a congregation in
Bruce. Mr. Sawers left the matter
entirely in the hands of the Presby-
tery. A large delegation represented
Brucefield church, and urged that the
translation be not granted, and the
Presbytery took this view of the
matter.
The old Ontario street church shed
was taken down on Monday, members
of the congregation doing the work,
the pastor with his coat off laboring
as hard, as any of them. The contract
for the cement portion of the new
shed has been let to Mr. Archie Cou-
sins at fifteen cents per foot. The
roofing will be galvanized shingles.
The shed will cost about one thousand
dollars and is expected to comfortably
accommodate thirty rigs.
Crop prospects in this vicinity are
fairly good. Mr. W. Doherty has a
field of hay, principally timothy, that
will yield four tons per acre. Last
year the same field produced a little
over three tons per acre, principally
red -topped clover. He also has the
best field of oats -American Banner -
that we have seen in many a day.
His corn and man golds are also the
most choice, and would do a person
good to view them, as there is nothing
in this vicinity to equal them.
A CASE OF COUNTERFEITING
We have been informed that some
merchants in this county are offering
for sale 25c and 50c boxes of "Rival
Herb Tablets." We wish to warn the
public that these tablets aremot genu-
ine, as the true "Rival Herb Tablets"
are put up by us in dollar size, Red
Tin boxes only, and any person or per-
sons offering for sale "Rival Herb
Tablets" in any but the original dollar
box are laying themselves open to the
law for using our trade name to
obtain money by fraud.

It Actually Destroys The Cause.
That's why catarrh is invariably
cured by inhaling "Catarrhozone."
The healing vapor spreads to every
part of the breathing organs. Germs
infecting the tissues of the nose,
throat and lungs are killed. Nothing
is left to cause inflammation. Spots
that are sore are healed. Discharge is
cleared away and catarrh becomes
something of the past. Use "Cater-
rhozone" and your recovery is guaran-
teed. Two sizes, 25c and $1 at all
dealers.
