Slowly Dying From Catarrh. Thou-
sands are in this terrible condition but
don't realize their danger. If you have
'the slightest taint of Catarrh, would it
not be wise to commence Catarrhozone
treatment now and be perfectly cured
in a short time? This pleasant remedy
cares without the use of drugs, atomiz-
ere or snuffs. You inhale the medicated
vapor which spreads to all pasts of the
breathing orgaus, kills the germs and
healsthe inflamed surfaces. Catarrho-
zone heals the throat and nose instantly
and never fails to cure the most obtain
ate catarrhal, lung and throat troubles.
A trial will demonstrate the value of
Catarrhozone,which sells for $1.00,small
size 25 cts,at Druggists or Polson t Co.,

It is our lot this week to chronicle the
death of a Huron pioneer in the person
.of Mr. John Johnson, of the townline
Howick and Carrick. He has been ill
for some weeks, suffering from a stroke
of paralysis, and the end which came on
Saturday evening, August 8th, was not
unexpected. Coming from the north of
England in 1851, with his .father, who
settled in the neighborhood of Mitchell,
he with his brother, Edward, came up in-
to what was then known as "the busk,"
in 1855 and took up the farm on which
he ever afterwards lived. He was priv-
-ileged to see it transformed from the
unbroken forest into one of the beautiful
farms for which the section is noted.
From the time of his settlement in the
district, he has taken an active interest
in itsdevlopement, being identified with
various organizations and movements,
especially for the progress of the agricul-
turist, Few men were better known or
More highly esteemed in the neighbor-
hood, He had attained to the
age of
seventy-two, and leaves a grown-up
family of two sons and five daughters.

Useful Hints to Housewives.
(Loudon Punch.)
To prevent funnel from shrinking put
it away in a drawer. Do not keep ou
going to look at it, as the shrinking habit
is often due to nervousness.
Aa soon as a skirt shows signs of wear
round the pocket remove the pocket.
You will in time get used to the change
and be brighter without it. Auother
good plan is to remove the skirt.
To try if eggs are fresh, drop them into
a deep bucket of pure water. If fresh,
they will at once siuk to the bottom and
break.
Warts may be cured by rubbing them
for seven or eight hears a day with a
piece of pumice -stone. As often as the
pumice -stone is worn. away begin again
with a fresh piece.
