If the opposition had had its way the traffic would have been deflected to the east. Col. Matheson now says it is a splendid country, but it is not so long ago that the worthy colonel never re- ferred to it except with a covert sneer. It was the "land of the stunted poplar" then. It is gratifying to be told that in one little section of the land of the stunted poplar millions of wealth will probably be taken out, and that every day two passenger coaches and 'a Pullman car leave To- ronto for those "wilds." It is gratifying, too, to know that the railway towards which the late opposition neyer contributed even an encouraging word is already a great provincial asset, The railway was a pet project of Hon. 'George W. Ross. Its progress through the legislature was consequently a continual occasion for nagging on the part of the oppo- sition, But it was put through in spite 'of all opposition, snarling and obstriic- tive, was skilfully and successfully i d and constructed, and to-day remains as a monument to the states- manship of Hon, George W. Ross, and elicits the admiring eulogiums of even his political opponents. » A Golden Jubilee. The 'Oddfellows have jist adjourn- | ed after a. celebration of the golden jubilee of the order. This well-known body of philanthropists has had a foothold in Canada for a longer period than fifty years, but its grand lodge has been organized for half a century, and it was only fitting that the observance of an event so res markable in the life of a society should be memorialized in the place where this event took place. Brockville was, thefefore, the Mecca of the Oddfellows this week, and the concentration of so 'many of thens, as represéntatives at the Encampment meeting and the grand lodge, 'as well as the many who made special pil. grimages as excursionists, gave the | river city an appearance it has gel. | dom taken on.

To her they can confide every detail of their illness, and from her great knowledge, obtained from years of experience in treating female ills, Mrs. Pinkham can advise women more wisely than the local physician. Delle Emerentienne Montreuil, of 114 Latourelle St., Quebec, Que., writes: . Pinkham: -- Dear ye for eight months with what the doctors called prolapsus, which caused great weakness all over my system, with faint dizzy spells. I'kept poli weaker and weaker. I tried several medicines which they claimed would cure my trouble, but nothing was of the least benefit until I tried Lydia E. Pink- ham's Vegetable Compound, and this helped me so idly that 1 could hardly believe my oO Torte, I would gladly have paid $25.00 for that first bottle, for it started me on the road to health, and five bottles cured me. ** I am most grateful for my splendid, robust health, and shall certainly recommend the Vegetable Compound in glowing terms to all my friends and acquaintances, for it is de- serving of all the praise I can give it." Mountains of proof establish the fact that no medicine in the world equals Lydia E. Pinkham"s Vegetable Com- pound for restoring women's health. MONEY WELL EXPENDED In Improving the Old Hinchin- brook Road. Verona, Aug. 9.-- The outlook for this season's crop was never better, and farmers believe the yield will be much larger than ever before. Haying is about over. Farm hands were hard to procure, some farmers paying as high 'as $2 a day for help. The pupils from Verona who wrote at the recent entrance examinations at Sydenham, were nearly all successful, which speaks highly for their teacher, Miss Philips. Travel on the old Hinchinbrook road has greatly increased this season; since the government grant has been ex pended The money was judiciously laid out, Mrs, Theodore Huffman received a telegram announcing the sad news that her father was dying. She took the express for his home in Kaladar, Miss Gerta Martin, after a very sev ere illness, is convaleseedt. Mrs. R. Davidson and family, ac companied by Miss Watson, are sum- mering at Bay View, Fourteen Island Lake.
