A WaroioK To riothers Too much care cannot be used with small children during the hot weather of the summer months to guard against bowel troubles. As a rule it is only necessary to give the child a dose of castor oil to correct any disorder of the boweLi. Do not use any substitute, but give the old-fashioned castor oil, and see that it is fresh, as rancid oil nauseateii, and has a tend- ency to gripe. If this does not check the bow- els jnve Chamberlains Cohc, Cholera and Diar- rhoea Remedy and then a dose of castor oil, and the disease may be checked in its incip- iency and all danger avoided. The caotor nil and this remedy should be proem ed at once and kept leady for instant use as sooo as the first indication of any bowel trouble appears. This it the most successful treatment known and may be relied upon with implicit confid- ence even in cases of cholera infantum. Fur rale by W. K. Richardson. Prlceville Klmbcrley.

Wm. Beiros, who lives on lot 11, con. 21, has a field which he wishes to drain, and in order to do so the drain will have to go thraagh four or flve other farms. Ths owners of these other farms object to the drain, and object to it the mote because they have been asked to pay their share, but we understand they have been legally served with notice, and the proposed work will go on. It is claimed that these 3tber owners of farms will have to pay their proportion of the cost whether they want the drain or not- Mr. D. F. Reosor, the engineer in oharKe of the Georgian Bay Electric Pow- er Company's plant which is to develop the Eugenia Falls water power, was in town on Friday, and went out to Ch.its- worth to arrasge some matters in connec- tion with the erection of the line to Owen Sound. He called upon Mayor Duncan and intinuted that be would probably meet Mr. John O'Donoghue of Stratford, here, the followinit evening. The latter gentleman is in town to-day in oODne.-tion with other interests, and is quite as san- guine as to results from the Eugenia Falls as be was when be was here some weeks ago.â€" 0. S. Times. It was a pitiful mistake, an error sad and grim. I waited for the rail way train the light was low and dim. It came at last, and from a car there stepped a dainty dame, and, looking up and down the place, she straight unto me came. ''Oh, Jack!" she cried "oh, dear old Jack|"and kissed me as she spake; then looked again and frightened, cried, "Oh, what a bad n-istake!" I said, "Forgive me, maiden fair, for I am not your Jack ; and as re- gards the kiss you gave, I'll straightway give it back." And since that nii;lit I've often stood ui)on that pintfcrin dim, but only once in a man's whole life do such things come to him. A young Bib's student was asked "How many boys are there in your class? "Multiply the number of Jacob's sons by the number of Jacob's sons by the num- ber of times tho Isrselites compassed •Tericho; add to the product the number of measures of barley which Boaz g.ave to Ruth; divide this by the number of Hain- an's sons, subtract the number of days thai Noah was in ilie ark before the waters of the flood were upon the earth; suhtr.ict the numVer of day.-) in the week in which the Israelites sntherod manna; multiply by the number of men who went to seek Elijah afrer he was taVen to heaven; add •loseph's age at the lime he stood before ! Pharaoh; divide by the number of stones in David's bag when ha killed Goliath; add the number of furlonss that Bethany was distant from Jerusalem; divide by the number of anchors cast out when Paul was shipwrecked; multiply by tho numb- er of wives saved in the ark. and the pro- duct will be the answer". â€" Exchange McFarland, Stafford & Go's- Big Store MA^KDAUE, ONTAltIO Grey County's BIGGEST and CHEAPEST STORE" Annual Midsummer Sale.
