Some people have cramps pretty often. others only now and again. But when you do have them it’s a mighty quick relief you want. Pol- son’s Nerviline is as sure as death to relieve cramps in five secondsâ€"it’s instantaneous. just a few drops in sweetened water and the pain is gone. Buy a bottle of Nerviline to-day. and keep it handy. Nerviline isa com- mon household necessity and only costs 25 cents. The Canadian Band gave us a few harsh notes a few nights ago.

Mr. Richard Banks bought the farm containing 50 acres adjoining Mr. James Vaughan’s. lately owned bv Mrs. Fannie Smith. It. is a rough lot but will be all right for pasture. Miss Mary Heslip is busy dress- making at her home, and has done some work in that line lately that an expert need not be ashamed of so those say who have had work done by her. The quilting at Bothwell’s on Tues- day was well attended by Glenmont girls, and some good work was done. The quilt was finished that evening and is already to go to the west. The same evening the neighbors surprised Mrs. Bothwell and Thos. by gather- erinp: at their home and making Mrs. B. the present of a pretty 201d watch. Addresses were given by a number present, expressing their regret at losing such kind obligiug neighbors. A very nice time was Spent in chit chat, songs, games, etc. In the exhibit of Heavy Horses we notice that Ed. Boy who nearly a1- 3ways stands first fell back this year to second and third places.

Mrs. Bothwell left her old home here on Wednesday last, and is visit- ing friends near ML. Forest. Under the Auspices of S. G. Farmers’ Institute. The attempts made by the Directors to work up an interest in this feature of our agricultural exhibition is not meeting with the success it deserves. The idea is to bring farmers together with their best produce and to en- courage the exchange of seed grains from one locality to another. Long before a Spring Seed Fair was ever thought of, farmers were in the habit of going long distances to exchange for or buy seed grown on a soil of different character from his own. The proper attention given the Spring Exhibit would place farmers more in touch when arrangements could easily and cheaply be made for the trading of seed grains of all kinds. The idea is all right and the Directors deserve credit for keeping it up so long, despite the apparent indifler- ence of most of our agriculturists. Though the exhibits this year were away below what they ought to be it is gratifying to learn the show was an improvement on last year. Early Potatoesâ€"Wm. Smith, D. Hamilton." Late Potatoesâ€"Wm.
