The boy was about five years of age, and Dr. Jarriieson did all for him that medical skill could do.

All who were there that were no: in a disagreeable mood, would say that it was a lively time.

Much sympathy is felt, for all concerned. Taylor \‘s. Neilson, both of Proton Station~--'l_‘he plaintiii' lined with the defendent for seven months at £518 i. month. Before the conclusion of two months he left his employer and sued for $2132.30. 1115 lionour held that the plaintiff lel't his employer without just cause and ' was there- fore. strictly speaking, not entitled to any wages. lie was, however, disposed to allow him .320 without costs, which was satisfactory to de- fendant’s council. and judgment. \\ as given accordingly. A number of unimportant cases were disposed of and the court adjourned about 3 p. in. Mr. J. A, Curry, and Engineer Eugene Coste representing a Col- lingwood Syndicate who are about to commence prOSpecting for natural gas in ()spiey and Arteinesia town- ships appeared before Arteinesia Council on b‘atnrday last asking for a franchise to allow them to lay their pipes alOng the sides of the public highway. After due consider- ation the f'anchise was grantedas far as the powers of the Uouncil go. Mr. COSte engineered the work in conneCt-ion with the gas wells in the Welland districz, and is of the opin- ion that the conditions prevail in these townships favorable to a good flow of gas. .Agents are now at work among the farmers leasing small pieces of land on which to commence prospecting work, and if gas is found the land owner is to be paid $25 per annum for each well 0p- erated on his property. Should this enterprise prove a success, and we trust it may, it will prove a source of great revenue to the farmers of these townships. Labor day was observed as a 11011- day here only by the. public school staff. Division Count was held in the Town Hall here on Wednesday of last week, His Honour. Judge Mor- rison, as usual, presiding. A. couple of caSes only contained anything of public interest, the first being that of Livermore vs liitch, a {Partner and a farmer. Both parties live near \Vareham. The plaintiff sued defen- dant. for $133.50. for use of horse and squaring foundation for Earn which he claimed he had the contract. to build. The defendant denied eon- irac; for barn, and let it to another party. He also claimed that. the Squaring was incorrectly done, and that he was to have use of horse for his feed; His Honour, however, held that the Squaring done by plaintiff and use of the horse were evidently given in View of the con- tract claimed, and not given, and therefore gave judgment against defendent for $10 and costs. Dr. Chase’s Kidney-Liver Pills, one pill a. dose, 25 cents a box, at all deal- ers, or Edmanson, Bates and 00.. To- tonto. To reach the liver. as well as the kid- neys, to set the filtering organs in working order and to cure every kind of backache, there is but one unfailing remedy, and that is Dr. Chase's Kid- ney-Liver Pills. It is the only treat- ment that has this direct and combined action on both liver and kidneys, and the only one that positively and per- manently cures backache, whether caused by liver or kidneys. But there are other kinds of back- ache, by far the greater proportion, that can never be reached by treating the kidneys. Pains in the shoulders. through the centre or the back, and in the sides are caused by a, torpid ac- tion or the liver, and can only be driv- en out when the iiver is made healthy. and active. Ylelde to Dr. chase’e Kldz-xey-llver P223 Because They Act Directly on the Liver as Well as the Kidneys.
