The choice of color and pattern have a great influence on the spirits and even health. You've heard of the physician who said " Madam you don't want a doctor; you need a Paperhanger" She got well and happy under HIS treatment-- of the walls. Why ? Because old-fashioned and depressing shades and patterns patterns were replaced with simple effects and bright, pretty florals with modern treatment. We certainly have the goods--artistic, yet not high priced. Would you like YOUR HOME more beautiful? Then come and see us. : : : : : : : : : : BIG 20 BOOKSTORE », W. T.

Osborne is editor and proprietor, we notice budgets of news from two places in the district called Burriss and Chappie, the former we pres, me having been named after Mr. R. A. Burriss formerly pastor of the Disciple church in this town, and the latter after His Honor Judge T. W. Chappie, formerly of Newcastle. So it is that our former residents not only leave their "foot prints on the sands" of the Rainy River District, but their n mes are given for all eternity to the sands of that famous part of New Ontario. The capital of that country is Fort Frances that is developing with wondrous rapidity.

Milligan who has been editor of The Daily Review, Peterboro,'for eight months retired from that position at the end of February. We have no persona acquaintance with him but can testify to the excellent service he has given since assuming the editorship, for no other paper in the Midland district has made as great progress in this time. We never luce to miss a^single number and àltho it is a Conservative paper the editorials have been generally fair and the general tone of the paper has been well maintained. maintained. He has not decided where his next field of labor will be. Since writing this note we observe that the Daily Examiner very nicely and cordially says: " For per >nal and fraternal reasons the Examiner regrets the severance of Mr. Milligan's relations with our contemporary. He is a good man and a good newspaper mad, a good writer and his work has given a tone to the editorial character of his journal, which his successor, whoever he may be, will do well it he maintain." SUNDAY NIGHT'S STORM "The "lion" jumped on Ontario as soon as March came in all right. High winds prevailed all day Sunday and at night reached a hurricane--72 miles an hour, the highest velocity on record in this country. Great damage was done all over this province and as far south as New York City. Telegraph lines were down and transportation traffic greatly impeded. In this town considerable property property was injured and some citizens got very little rest owing to the ravages and antics of the wind. Before introducing Dr. James L. Hughes Hughes at Canadian? Club recently Mr. W. B. Couch said: Hieed scarcely remind you that since our last meeting we have sustained sustained a severe loss in the death of our highlv esteemed and greatlv-beloved President, Rev. T. W. Jolliffe. We all know that he has taken a very keen inter est in all matters" connected with this Canadian Club from its earliest inception down to the time ofJiis last illness. A1 tho a preacher by profession, he never merged his manhood in his profession, for while he was emphatically a preacher among preachers, he was also a man among men, a sincere Christian and . n ideal citizen. Although for a long time he was constantly engaged in fighting a most insiduous disease, a disease which was gradually wearing him down, yet we all know that he never failed to take a very intelligent and active interest in all matters pertaining to the material, «-moral 1 and intellectual life of this town. He was a man who possessed a clear head and a kind heart and whose sympathies were always on the side of that which was right, whom to know was to respect, and whom to know intimately was to love. But he has been taken from us and will not return to us again, unless, indeed, it be in memory of duty well and faithfully done, and in his example which was so good and so noble that we, his successors, will do well to follow it. 3 <*! 5ft HIGH SCHOOL NOTES J~2\ C~T 3=30 Choice Groceries Our stock of groceries is fresh, clean, and ot the best quality and at prices that will stand comparing.

Perhaps in child work Miss Jackson excels as was shown in the number number "Dialogue in the dark" but also in her heavier numbers she showed undoubted talent. Her dramatic reading "Through the enemies' ranks", and the musical group "Uncle Eph's heaven", "The wild white rose", and the patriotic selection "Canadian Bom" were particularly well given. Her humorous selections "Mir- andy on leap year proposals" and "The sad end of a merry widow hat" called forth much laughter from the audience. Mr. Fiddes and Miss Clare lent most able assistancé, the latter opening the program with a "Nobe" from Goddard which was well given.

"The standard on the braes o' Mar", "The highland man's toast" and "Jolly Jack" were . especially well given. Mr. Fiddes has a remarkably clear, strong voice, Highly-trained,which was evident in every number he gave. So splendidly enjoyable enjoyable was Miss Jackson's recital that every success may be confidently predicted for her in her chosen profession as a public reader. CALL TO COUNSEL.
