Dangers of a Cold and How to Avoid
Them,
More fatalities have their origin in or
result from a cold than from any other
cause. This fact alone should make
people more careful as their is no danger
whatever from a cold when it is properly
treated in the beginning. For many
years Chamberlain's Cough Remedy has
been recognized as the most prompt and
effectual medicine in use for this dis-
ease. It acts on nature's plan, loosens
the cough, relieves the lungs, opens the
secretions and aids nature in restoring
the system to a healthy condition. Sold
by all druggists.
—There is talk of an independent tele-
phone company being organized in In-

823.
—Would you rather have a salesman
who stood on street corners, or in vacant

SAFEGUARD THE CHILDREN.
There is no telling when a medicine
may be needed in homes where there are
little ones. Therefore the p ndent
mother will always keep a box o -aby's
Own Tablets on hand. The Tablets
promptly cure indi_ •scion, colic, sour
stomach, constipati(n, . arrhoea and
teething troubles. 1 .e • break np colds
prevent croup, expel .rms,and give the
child sound natural sleep. Mothers have
the guarantee of a Government aualyst
that these Tablets contain no opiate or
poisonous soothing stuff. Mrs J. C. Gil -
dart, Prosser Brook, N. B., says "Baby's
Own Tablets act like magic whena little
one is ill, and I would not feel safe with-
out a box in the house." Yon can get
Baby's Own Tablets from your medicine
dealer or by mail at 25 Dents a box from
the Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brock-
ville Ont,
The Spring Cleaning.
The gladsome season of spring will
soon be upon ns once more. The season
when the tidy property owner takes a
look around at his house, his fence, his
shade trees, his back -yard, his lawn, to
see what little improvements he can
make. There is nothing that gives the
stranger such a favorable impression of
a place as to see the business and private
houses nicely painted, fences well kept,
trees trimmed and looking healthy,
lawns kept neat and free from obnoxious
weeds; to see the streets kept in good
repair and no olcl paper and other rub-
bish flying around. Back -yards are not
so much exposed to view, but filth is un-
healthy, and for this reason they should
be cleaned np. We don't suppose Wing -
ham is any worse than any other place
in these respects, but we should try to
be some better than any other place,
and the fame of our town would spread
far and wide.
Dow to Prevent Bilious Attacks.
One who is subtect to bilious attacks
will notice that for a day or more before
the attack he is not hungry at meal
times and feels dull after eating. A dose
of Chamberlain's Stomach and Liver
Tablets when these first symptoms ap-
pear will ward of the attack. The are
for sale by all druggists.

The Brussels Oil Company,
Limited.
The above is the name of the Com-
pany now being incorporated, to pros-
peot for petroleam, is the township of
Elms, in the county of Perth, and who
have for thie purpose secured some 2000
acres of valuable lands, in that and ad-
joining townships, upon most advanta-
geous terms. ,•
The recent discovery of Petroleum was
made during the summer of 1905, in
drillings a water well upon the lands of
one William Baillie when at the depth of
some 60 feet, very pronounced showings
of the orude product appeared and steps
were then taken, looking towards a
thorough development, but the right to
do so was questioned by the owner of
the property, and an action was at once
brought by members of the present COM.
puny. for the purpose of asserting their
rights, under the lease which they had
obtained.
The action was disposed of at the
Assizes in Stratford and resulted in a
judgment in the Plaintiffs favor for
damages, and a perpetual injunction re
straining the Defendant from further
interference but from this J went the
Defendant appealed, and ' was not un
til recent date that a appeal was
abandoned, so that h regard to the
property upon whi the oil was first
discovered, as as the rest of the
lands covered the company's leases,
their validity has now been fully estab-
lished, and no further trouble is now to
be anticipated.
The Company has been capitalized at
$100,000 in sbares $1.00 each, fully paid
and non -assessable stock, $15000 of
which has been placed upon the market,
for the investing public, and the proceeds
of which will be used for the purpose of
developing this new but very promising
field.
A large portion of this stock has al-
ready been taken up and it is confident-
ly expected, that by the 15th of May, the
balance will be subsoribed, the Com-
pany's plant and machinery placed up-
on the ground and drilling operations in
full swing.
There is no preferred or watered
stook, and moreover not one dollar can
be made by the promoters, until such
time as the Company has been put upon
a dividend paying basis, neither can the
interest in the project which the pro-
moters hold, be sold or dealt with in
any way, until oil has been found in
paying quantities.
The cfricers and directors of the Com-
pany are well known business men, in
the village of Brussels, and the public
eau depend upon it, that under their
management, the interest of the share-
holders, will be properly safeguarded.
All orders for stock, should be ad-
dressed to the Secretary of the Company
at their head office in Brussels.
The Winnipeg Street Railway strike
has been settled, the men receiving an
advance of one cent per hour.
Hon. W. S. Fielding made his first ap-
pearance at the Cabinet Council on Sat-
urday since his accident of some weeks
ago.
Geo. Walker of Port Hope, aged six-
teen years, was run over while attempt-
ing to board a moving train, and had
both lege amputated.
P. O'Brien of Logan township was a-
sleep when his house caught fire, and
but for the prompt action of neighbors
would probably have lost his life.

MADE BY
Gentlemen :—
It affords me much pleasure to be
able to recommend to any intending purchaser
your Huron Steel range, I have had one of
them in use for the past two years and during
that time have found it to give me the most
perfect satisfaction on a minimum amount of
fuel. My wife states that she would not ex-
change it for any make of range that she has
seen yet, in fact if she could not get another
one would not sell it at any price.
Very truly yours,
