Prizes Were Presented--Reperts of the Executive Officers--The Rink Will Likely be Leased From Queen's University. A meeting of the Kingston Curling Club was held at the curling club rooms, on Monday evening, when the final business and the presentation of the cups and prizes for the season were made. There was a very large at oe. The sevretary gave his report, which showed that she club had one of the busiest seasons in its history, It showed that games had been played with seventy rinks from outside oes. Uut of the games played the al curlers have won thirty games, tied seven and lost thirty-one. The local club has entertained some 260 outside curlers; including the tour ing Scotch curlers.

There is seldom any warning until the child awakens at midnight with the hard, metallic cough and gasps frantically for breath. There is no time to send for a doctor, no time to go to the drugstore, even; relief must be obtained at once. If you are not so fortunate as to have Dr. Chase's Syrup of Linseed anll Tur- pentine in the house, cause the child to - vomit with a spoonful of warm lard or by tickling the throat with the finger. Then get Dr. Chase's Syrup of Lin- seed and Turpentine so as to prevent the more serious attack which usually comes the second night. This treat- ment is wonderfully effective for croup, bronchitis and colds in the throat or chest. Mothers who make a practice of always keeping it in the house find that they can depend on it in case of emergency. And "The Hat Store."

This is the second year that the present winner has won both prizes. i The prizes for the bonspiel were also, given to the winners, 1 One of the most interesting &vents of the evening was the presentation. of the booby prizes to the eight members of the teams who won only one game} this season, namely: Prof. Raker's and R. J. Hooper's rink. Prof. Baker's rink members were each presented with a mug with an inseription on it. R. J. Hooper's rink each received a little cup with the letters of the alphabet on them. Some of the members were not present as they had got wind of what was coming, and failed to appear oh the scene. Those who faild to ap- pear were sent the prizes. Votes of thanks were tendered the executive for the fine work it had done this year. Considerable discussion took place at this point as to the manner in which rinks to play league games were chosen. Some of the mem- bers were of the opinion that fewer teams should be chosen and that these teams should all play together and then the club would have some good teams. These teams would be.the on- iy teams that would play inthe léayrug games. In this connection J. G. El liott, on behalf of the British Whig Publishing company, offered to present a troply for the teamy which won the most of the games in the Central On- tarip League; the details will be work- ed out by a committee. Other members were of the opinion that the club should not only be in the leagues for the idea of winning, but should have some other thing in view. There are a number of the out- side clubs at the present time looking up to the local club for the éxcellent way in which its is conducted. At the present time things look as if there will be a dropping off of the present method of picking teams by the other clubs. One member of one of the out- side teams said that the only way to get on one of the teams was to wait for some of the old members to die. ; Values that cannot be equalled in any other from 75¢c. to $1.98 a yard. store.
