A re­ cent departure in Sunday journalism han rnet with popular recognition aud approval. The great illustrated week­ lies and .monthlies nO longer have a monopoly of the periodical field.

Anthony Hope, Jack Loudon, Sewell Ford ami many other popular novelists contribute to the publication which set the pace by paying this record price.

Thelen Facts For Consideration. Sickness comes to everybody and fnlly fonr-fifths of onr people anffer needlessly by adopting primitive methods fnr relief. Medicines have their virtues, but. Accomplish very little outside or. the common, everyday ail­ ments. The continual dosing aggra­ vates the case, aud makes the ailment more serious for ultimate recovery. It is a fallacy to lielieve that rheumatism, appendicitis, gall stones, nervons pros­ tration and the many other ailments along the same lines can be cured by medicines. The circulation of the blood is at fault, nothing else.< The qnickest relief and later complete cure lies in the hands of Prof. Leach of Elgin. He was born with the gift of vital magnetism. His thoughts are constantly l»eing ex tended to the ailing. His cures are many, and of ailments of every descrip­ tion. His testimonial booklet conta ins so mnch convincing proof of his accom­ plishments that every ailing person should have it. At some time you will believe in him, and will come to him. To Start Work oil Big Oitcli . Harvard Herald: In the county court before Judge Smiley at Woodstock last Monday the hearing on the petition to establish the Rush Creek drainage dis trict was taken up. The district was organized, an order from the court to this effect having been enteied. The court appointed three commissioners to make a preliminary survey and estimate as to the probable cost of the proposed work. The commissioners appointed by the judge are .fames E. Cunninghaln, Raymond Brickley of Dunham and John Dean of Harvard. Their work will be taken up at once and an effort made to ascertain the cost of establishing the ditch, which is designed to reclaim a vast amount of land in Dunham that is now of little value, the ultimate object. In ing to make it virtually the most pro­ ductive land in the entire town. Now tlmt the jietition has beeu heaj'd, the [court having entered an order and the j other preliminaries having been com J plied with, it is likely the work toward i starting the ditch will be pushed with | all possible speed . : V School Nllloit .
