A PETTY BLACKMAILER. The Blyth Standard received an anonymous communication which was properly \vitheId. The next Week, a letter came from the same party or parties, threatening to cancel their subscriptions if the article were not published. 'Ihr writer of this anonymous artic'c represents a class too common ir~ most communities. They are" moral cowards of the me-wnes'. kind. They haven’t the county-re come out like men. but prefer a" have their dirty work done by th: local editor, from whom "they threaten to withdraw their arab- scriptfions if he doesn’t act 'ke .: blind toes} .in their interests. A newsroaper is just as well] Without the‘ support of the moral cowar-fis who have neither the courage no. the manliness to stand up from their own rights. It would be. no sur- prise to learn they are already tour or five years in arrears. Effective. economical, pleasant. W'hat more can you ask?

Nrormanby, congre- gation, held their alnnlutml meeting on Monday night, January 23rd. Mr. James Moore acted as secrcm tary. The various reports present ed showed the various branches of the church to be in a thrifty con- dition. with a somewhat reduced balance on hand. Treasurer Wm. Grant was re-elected for 1911 and Wm. Wilton was elected mammger, to fill Mr. Richard Barber’s place. who was the retiring olflficer. Axi- ter the bulk of business was fin-1 ished, tea and ea‘t'ables we’re 133158“! All nfiA,“-§IJ A‘A We noticed. with some amuse- ment. the comment of that West» ern subscriber, regarding the Writ- ings of some of your humbie scribes. We have some of th- same kind of cmoakers in and a- round "the Corners,who have con- siderable of the same "1nd of dictation to offer, but we pity The printer who Win have to depend on such for a write-up. A Little nonsense now and then is relfisha-«f by the wisest men, :50 that surely your poor. humble scribes may be excused. This month of January huts rath- er spoiied its reputation, to-ciavy, 30th. being possibly one of the miidest on record. The revival services held in Knox church were much appreciat- ed, and large crowds were in at- tendance. The Rev. Mr. McCulloch of Owen Sound. conducted the ser- vices, and proved himself to be a 'real gifted and downright earnest servant of God, who labored most earnestly by alble preaching and inspiring song, to lift the people onto a higher plane of living, and We trust that much good will he the once-me. Mr. Andrew McIlvride, of Cayxley Alta. who is dIO'Wn east recruiting his health. and who, for the past seven years has been *a great awf- ferer from that most distressing ailment. asthma, is greatly improv- ed, having made 'a gain of 141bs., notwithstanding the feet 011' hav- ing had .a rather bad attack of grippe. We sincerely hope that Andrew may continue to gain in health. and return to his fiamcfiy again in the spring, greatly bene- fited by his trip. -Well, Mr. Editor, We have got badly side-tracked lately, but since N ew Year’s came in, We have been very busy building a “char- acter,” and consequently \a lot of rather interesting news has had to stand over. To all young men in South Grey this Opportunity is to be granted on the 15th and 16th of this month. In the village of Holstelin is to be held a short Judging Course, un- der the direction of the Depart- ment of Agriculture. At this course animals will be gone over and the good points shown. Then those present will be given a chance to judge the animals for themselves and their decisions Will be commented rupon by 'the men in charge. This is not .a (93138 of “telling” farmers what is best, but it ,is a case of “showing.” The stock, which shall be judged under the direction of Dr. H.C. Reed, of Georgetown, and John Gardhouse, of Highlfield. Dr. Reed will have charge of the light and heavy horses, and Mr. Gardhousse the beef cattle and sheep. There are no two better men in Ontario for this work, and all farmers and others interested should make an eflfort to attend. The Department of Agriculture has had Mr. T. H. Binnie in Holstein making final sur- rangements for the course, which should be one of the most bene- ficial meetings for farmers ever held in South Grey. It is necessmgr that the live stock man bea goo judge of the anim- als that he is breeding in order that he will be alble to breed and buy to the best advantage. Many of us have learned by experience what are the best types to keep. Others have not paid so much at- tention to this matter and are Wiv- ing to learn all we can. We have never had the best chances to learn Which is the proper type to bring in the best money This is especially so of our young men. They have not had the experience of their fathers and are anxrious to make a start in life .for them- selves. If they are to make the success of life they deserve they should haVe a chance to studV the animals With Which they will have to deal. STOCK JUDGING CONVENTION. "1E DURHAM CHRONICLE DURHAM.

If there is no excess of uric acid in the blood, there can be no Rheumatism. "Fruit-aâ€"tives” keeps the stomach clean~the liver activeâ€"the bowels regular â€"the kidney strong and the skin healthy. These are the organs that rid the body of all waste. When “Fruit-aâ€"tives” so regulates the system that all waste is eliminated, then there can be no waste or “urea” to be changed into uric acid. Thus, there can be no uric acid in the blood, to inflame nerves and cause the pain which we know by the names of Rheumatism, Sciatica, Lumbago, Neuralgia. “Fruit-a-tives” will cure every trace of Rheumatism, Pain In The Back, Swollen Hands and Feet, and other troubles due to the blood being poisoned by uric acid. If you are subject to Rheumatism, cure yourself now with “Fruit-a-tives” and be free of pain this Winter. 50¢. a box, 6 for $2.50, trial size 25c.
