One day my drug- gist handed me a sample box of Dr. Chase's Ointment, and I used it with stich good results that I decided to give the ointment a falr trial.

Brockville, Oct, 28.--The death is reported from Westport of Capt. Thos. Lynch, a well-known mariner of the Rideau and St. Lawrence waterways.

Brockville, Oct, 27.--~There was no cheese =o0ld at the meeting of the lo- cal board yesterday afternoon. The bidding was very slow, only six offers being made at prices ranging from 21% do 213%. These prices the salesmen refused to accept, although on the street the high figure ruled. The hoard offerings were 2,365 boxes and the regular possibly represented nearly as many more. Considering the lateness of the season, the volume of the make is keeping up remark- ably well due largely to farmers supnlementing the grass with liberal stall feeding. Efforts along these lines are being stimulated by high prices. Renfrew Growing Rapidly. Renfrew, Oct. 27 ~The municipal grown in population in the past year by 1,242.

Carters will make mistakes, and sometimes they are of a most em- barrassing nature. A few days ago a carter called at a well-known residence and dumped off a case of "wet" goods, and then rang the bell to render the bill for the same, as thé goods had been shipped in from the province of Que- bec, where the "dry" regulations are not in effect, The lady of the house happened to open the door, and she was quite shocked to see a case of liguor on her front door step. "You have made a mistake sir, this liquor is not for this house. My husband doesn't drink, T.-don't drink, and in fact there is not one person in the house who takes anything strong." The poor carter endeavored, as best he could to stammer out some of an excuse, stating that he thou ght he was in the right place. "Just let me see that bill," said the lady, and as she scanned over the document she found that the case of "wet" goods belonged to her neigh- bor. The carter went to "tiie house next door' "in quick order, taking his small cargo with him. _ INCIDENTS OF THE DAY. Local Notes and Tteras Of Geners' In .

E. R. McLean Made Reference to. Six Church Young Men Who Have Made the Supreme Sacrifice. 'At Cooke's ehurch on Sunday morning a special memorial service was held for fallen heroes who were members of the church, and the ser: E. R. McLean was a most impressive one. So far,the congregation has had six men in the ¢asualty lists, and it was indeed a most fitting tribute that the pastor paid to the men who $0 nobly responded to the call from King and country. : In his address, Rev. Mr. McLean | gave the names of all the men the casualty list, at the same time giving a short history of each one. He drew attention to the fact that each one had enlisted as a private. "They wore no insignia of rank up- on their tunics," he said, "but in the book of the recorded dead is written that they wore heroes' hearts with- in" : Rev. Mr. McLean made reference to the following who had gone to the front: William Cassels Buchanan, who died as the resplt of an accident/was the son of a/foreign missionary of the Presbyterian Church, and it was noted that all the sons of foreign missionaries: in the Presbyterian Church had enlisted, a most worthy showing. Mr. Buchanan went o¥er- seas with Queen's Engineers. Andrew Millymaki resided at New Finland, Sask. He was a Finlapder, and was one of the first of his race to seek education. He attended Queen's University, He was killed in action in September last. He was quite an active member of Cooke's church. He was in Arts '18 at the college. He went overseas with Queen's Engineers under Major Me- Phail. .- James Hawkens paid the supreme sacrifice 'just recently as a member of the 21st Battalion. He came here from the Old Country, and his wife and children still reside in the city. Lloyd Fleming, son of Rev. D. F. Fleming, Presbyterian minister at Dauphin, Man., was in his second vear in theology at Queen's when he enlisted. He died in a western hos- pital before he left for overseas. Frederick George Martyn came from Mitchell, Ont. He spent two vears at Queen's University, and en- listed in May. 1915, with the Prin: cess Pats Regiment. He was killed in action on June 2nd. 1916. He was hit by shrapnel, and afterwards was buried by a shell, and his body was never recovered. John Easson refponded to the call for recruits shortly after war broke out. He enlisted with the 5th Royal Highlanders, of Montreal. Rev. Mr, McLean referred to him as "a lad of parts." Although a mechanic he had De laid to take a eourse in civil engineering. He was last scen at St, Julien April 23rd, 1915, and has now been recorded as dead.. CAPT. A. H. McGREER. Won the Military Cross For Bravery Under Fire, Montreal Gazette, Captain the Rev. A. H.
