THANKSâ€"Mr. James Patterson of Verulam will please accept our thanks for the basketl'ul of fine large Duchess of Oldenburg apples that he left at the Gazette oflicc last Friday. They were beauties, :is good to eat as to look at, and had the additional recommendation of not Costing anything. We are a pretty good judge of apples, and if any farmer in this vicinity thinks he has better than M r. Patterson’s he can bringr us a sample andâ€"no matter how busy we may be~~wc will test them care- fully and give him our honest opinion as to their merits. 35?” Don’t fail to see the bargains in niillinery at Mrs. R.

He was taken ill on the pre- vious Tuesday. a telegram was sent to Mr. Day on Wednesday, and he went up on Thursday. Of course everything pos~ible was done to save the valuable animal, but Mr. Day says that as soon as he saw him he felt sure he would not recover, as he showed exactly the same symptoms as his predecessor Cham- pagne, that died a few years ago. Finot was just in his prime, being only ten years old. and Mr. Day has owned him since he was three. Woon ALcononâ€"As evidence ol‘ the truth of the statement made in the Gazelle of the 3rd inst. that wood alco- hol, now being made in this village. is a deadly poison, we quote the following news item from Jefferson, Indiana :â€" “ Trumps purchased a pint of alcohol at a drug store here. saying it was to make liniment for n lamo horse. The druguist gave them wood alcohol, and warned them twice that it was poison- ous. They went to the woods and mixed it with water. Three of the party of five drank it. and died the following: morning. The two tramps who declined to drink journeyed on east. The dead men were named Em- erslin. Rogan and Montague." [8' Produce taken in exchange at Mrs. ll. lchougnll's.â€"27. AN Roots: TRAGEDY. â€" A brown mare. about six years old, owned by R3v. T. P. Steel, of this village, came to a [ragicnl end on the night of the {WI inst. He had turned her loose in the yard to eat some grass that was growing along; the fences, and hearing :1 noise. about hnll‘ past ll o’clock. he went out and found the unfortunate; animal impaled on the pickets ol' the! carriage catc. two or three of which! had penetrated her abdomen just inl front of her flanks, to the depth of; Unit a foot. Having liberated heri 'r “min: the top crossbar of the gate ~ .; 'r-atii ends. .‘lr. Steel ran to the rear it‘s- parscnigc lot and through )lr. .h', tsn's to Dr. Mason's housa on Fran» ' and in a very few minutes' 'Tie iuctor, .‘lr. Holden and .‘lr. li‘l‘ :nw' w ~r" around the equine pzttidnt. .~ tr t~ on her feet when they returned. but sown laid down. and as her bowels were protruding and it was evident she onuid not recover. 1’: Mason put her t' ~' VEST: out of her misery by a blow on bcriore- - head with an axe, which killed her in- stantly. The gate over which she , attempted to jump was new and strong, but not unusually high, and 1t is prob able that she would have cleared it easily enough but fer the fact that it 2was at the top of a rather steep bill, \ which placed her at a great disadvan- tage. In Memoriam. Lines written on the death of Mrs. C. Cur- tis. Sr., who departed this life on the 28th of August, 1897, at the age of . 70 years. We miss thee, dear mother, From thy familiar place, We do not hear thy footsteps near, Nor see thy cheerful face. We miss thee at church; . We feel thy absence there; And oh, what sorrows pierce our hearts To see thy vacant chair. We miss the kind word spoken, The merry laugh and smile; We miss the fond look of thine eyes, We miss thee all the while. The home is sad without thee ; How desolate is each heart; Oh, could we hear thy voice again, What joy it would impact! We miss thee, oh, we miss thee, Whichever way we go l . Oh, may the seed that thou hast sow To glorious harvest grow. ’Twas hard to give thee up ; ’Twas hard to see thee go; But it was harder far to see Thee sufi‘er here below. We would not ask thee back again To this dark world of sin, For we know that thou are happier' With our: Saviour over there. She has left a weeping husband, Who regarded her with care, And kind and loving children, Who will half the burden bear. L0ving father, cease thy- weeping; Children, Wipe away all' tears ;' Give a life that: you may meet her. In the grand hereafter years.. A: faithful friend: shc was to all ;; But in the dying hour I did not sec'her smiling face, Nor change a loving word. A few short years shnll soon roll by, When. our time on earth is o’er; Then', dear friend, if we prove faithful, We shall meet to part no more. â€".l[rs. Joseph Curtis. FENELON FALLS MARKETS.
