One young I man drove in and halted to make a purchase at Dr. Christoe's drug store. Others followed racing through the village and one them ran into the buggy which had halted and im-' mediately a general smash and mixi up occurred which left three or four buggies considerably disabled. For- tunately one young lady only was slightly injured but had a narrow escape and, as the “meds” would say. got considerable of an “eleva- tion while the chest was up.” Furi- ous driving is a violation of the law which should not go unpuuished, but if nothing more, the silly habit of racing on the public highway should be beneath the dignity of young men who have any regard for the lives of young ladies who go out with them for pleasure.

Strange if you weren’t one of the numerous visitors six years ago this summer, but Top Cliff was not in existance than but an imagin- ary ghost was that which gathered hundreds of Spectators daily for weeks proving to be nothing but like the story of Paddy’s burglar tools. which made the Judge, court and all turn fools, etc., but now, Sir you will find one of the neatest schools in South Grey, it being lately painted over by the skilful painter, Mr. Colin McDougall, of Durham, who in work- ;manship cannot be excelled in any i part of the country, The farmers around this, place commenced harvesting beginning of the past week. Grains in general are pretty short, but the grain is goorl. During the most of the past week early risers say there was frost three or four mornings in succession, which, no doubt, will haSten the ripening process. n ‘C a Mr. A. McCuaig took in a field of barley in July, so did Alfred Hinks, both having good crops. The grain on fall wheat cannot. be beaten in any part oi the country. Hay, in some instances was a fair crop while in many places it. only averaged a half amp. McDougall Bros, had on Jno.

He hanged himself in a neighbor’s shanty in Proton where in a fit of temporary insanity caused by brooding over as how to manage to clear his farm which was all bush. Hehad rccentlycomc from the Old Country and could see no way of getting along in the woods so he made his career short by ending his life. His name was McCallum, he had many friends in Glenelg. .\.rs. Williams, of the 800, and little son are spending a while with Mrs. William’s brocher, Mr. Bob Fisher, of this place. Mrs. Williams has experienced many changes since she last visited the old home for since then her husband and father have joined the greater majority. She and her family are getting along nicely at the $00 as the good people of the place are very kind in assisting those in want. Neil McCannel paid friends at Stavner a short visit during the past; week. Mr. and Mvs. Arch, McCannel, of Burgoyne, 00. Bruce, visited friends at. this place recently and are at present visiting friends in Erin township. The Chronicle Cors. are doing well of late we always admire good newsy budgets such as are generally given! by the numerous writers to the' Chronicle.

We wonder who were the ladies that tore the young man’s coat from near this place at the picnic some where between here and Durham the other evening. If they would View him through the Scope they would see exactly where the rent was in his coat. Mn. NORMAN MCRAE was given a! farewell party at the home of Mrs. Elliott on the eve of his departure from town, after a sojourn of four years here. during which time he was employed with Mr. W. Turner, drug- gist. The party was largely attend- ed by the young people and during the evening he was presented with a handsome watch chain and a nicely worded address, expressing the re- gret felt on his departure and their wishes for his future success.

The heart, the lungs, the stomach. the liver, the kidneys, and bowels can- not perform their functions and repair wasted tissue when supplied. with blood that is deficient in nutritive qualities. and sooner or later the weakest organ succumbs to the attsoks of disease: The indications of thin. watery blood are paleness ot the lips, gums, and eye- lids, shortness of breath. weakness 0! heart action, and Ianguid, despondent feelings.

We learn that a number of farmers in the surrounding townships are losing horses and cattle very sud- denly and apparently without know- ing the cause. A farmer who has had some information from similar circumstances elsewhere learns that the want of a sufficiency of salt is the cause of much trouble among stock. A quantity should be so placed in‘ the field as to be accessible at all times, though not thoroughly Satis- fying to the demand of the herd will be found invaluable and a few lumps of rock salt should be kept in the pasture fields, supplemented of course by some of the more soluble variety at least once a week. Sun- day morning is said to be a very good time just after winding the clock. Whatever day may be selected. regularity in the giving of salt and an abundance of good, clean, whole- some Water, are essentials to the welfare of every herd of cattle, â€"â€"â€" ~ .aQ.QH 7â€"wâ€" -.

Mr. John Kelly, 79 Trinity street, To- ronto, in an interview, made the fol- ioxxing xerpatim statement: -â€" “I have been troubled with eczema. in almost its worst form for the past three years. At times my back and shoulder blades were literally covered with patches like water blisters. and these, accompanied with terrible itch- ing on my legs, put sleep out of the question. I tried various well-known ointments (names mentioned),,and did everything possible to obtain relief, but with little success. I had frequently heard or Dr. Chase’s Ointment, but meeting with so many disappointments, I had not tried it. Seeing the advertise- ment one day I concluded to get a box.
