And Dealer in Manufacturer of 66 ”(2 p’k’g .10(: lb. lb. It was currently reported early this week that Mr. Andrew Carnegie, the multi-millionuire, had given 820,000 to Palmerston for a Public Library building. Various reasons were given why Carnegie happened to light on Palmerston this time. One was that he had a cousin living in a township near by who has been corresponding with his multi~million~ aire relative; another was that Carnegie himself, while waiting at Palmerston. once upon a time, for a connection north to Owen Sound spied out the Public School Building, and enquired if they had a Library Building in keeping with no credit.- able an edifice. .When the lack of} writes: ”My limbs were almost 'nseless {tom sciatic: and rheumatism. and, not- withstnnding my esteem for physicians, I must give the credit where it belongs. I am a cured man to-day. and South Ameri- can Rheumntic Cure must have ell the credit. It’eemarveL-y One of the Dominion's oldest resi~ dents, Francis Irwin, died Friday evening at his home in Alberton, An- caster Township, in his 10:2nd year. He has been in excellent health up till a few months ago, and worked on his farm until he was about 90 years old. He was born in Ireland and came to Canada when he was about 10 years old, first living in Dundas. Then he went into Ancester town- ship, and had lived on the farm where he died about. 40 years. He was unmarried, and had latterly been cared for by the children of his nep- hew, W. '1‘. Vansickle. The deceased was through the Mackenzie Rebel- lion of 1837, and acted as orderly for 001.

The next day the preach- er read to his astonished congregation that when Noah was a 1'20 years he took to himself a wife. who was (then turningr the page) 130 cubits long, 40 cubits wide, built of gopher wood and covered with pitch in and out. Puzzled at this he read it again and then said: ” My” friends this is the first time I ever read this in the Bible, but I accept it as the evidence of the assertion that we are fearfully and wonderfully made. Otrong words by a. New York Emlulllt â€"” After years of testing and comparison I have no hesitation in saying that Dr. Agnew's Cure for the Heart is the qujckest. safest, and surest known to medi- cal science.

Flynn, but ,the handle ien’ t covered. In conversation with some of our cement enthusiastics here a few davs ago, some of the uses of the manufac- tured article were discussed. One individual spoke of its use in surgery, another of buildings, etc., but one of the bystanders capped the climax by suggesting that by the use of sugar coating it might be utilized for Pills. This fellow must be a first cousin to the chap who thought it was no use except for making “ granulated ” sidewalks While fishing above Sykes Street bridge, Master Auscen Gavett caught a three pcund speckled trout which was on exhibition in W. J. Carno- han’s window. The fish was sold for 33§c. per. lb. to Thomas Male, of Paul’s hotel. This is the largest fish of the kind that has been caught around Meaford for several years.â€" Meaford Monitor. Pshaw! Meaford isn’t in it with some of the trout Sam Sectt catches. While John McDougall was paint- ing on the McIntyre block last week he didn’t meet with any accident,but cautioned Frank Lenahan, who as- sisted him in putting up the ladder, to be careful not to let it slip. e was assured by Frank if it did p be had a place prepared for him. Now Frank is an undertaker, and it’sa wonder there wasn’t an acci- dent.

We were hardly home from Cement City mills till we heard the two editors had a high old drunk during their absence. Who in thunder let the cat out of the bag? There’s an inconsistency in talking of building up your own town, and at the same time making all your purchases from Toronto sweat shops. Every man has aright to be re- ligious according to his convictions, but no man has a right to force another to think as he thinks. Former yeals we were satisfiedl with fish stories.

H-'â€"â€"â€"- I In a few years the pioneers of Proton will have passed away. An- other of the old residents, Mr. John Munroe, died on Wednesday of last week. _Mr. Munroe was born on the Isle of Skye, Scatlrnd. seventy-two years ago, and on coming to Canada settled for a short time at Coiling- wood. from which place he m'oved to Prot‘on, where he resided until the time of his death. A family of four sons and two dahghters survive him, and all'live in Proton except Donald, who resides at Dnntroon. Mr. Mano roe was a much respected member of the community and was highly ea- teemed by all who knew him.â€" Arthur Enterprise. On Monday of last week .an old resident of Proton, in the person of William Mills, died very suddenly of heart failure. The deceased was eighty-two years old and had been a resident of Proton for thirty-six years. He was born in Ireland and came to Canada, settling in Milton. where he remained for a number of years. He then came to Proton and settled on the farm ‘where he died. He leaves a family of five, three boys and two girls, all residents of the townxhip.
