Mrs. Leslabay of Toronto will give a Viavi health talk to the ladies of Flesh- erton on Thursday, July SOtb, at Mrs. Herben Smith's, at 3 o'clock. All ladies are cotdially invited. On Friday last Mrs. Fred Tucker re- ceived word of the serious illness of her sinter, who resides at Dayton, Ohio. Mrs. Tucker left by the 6rst train and expects to be absent a month. A Toronto evening newspaper telling of Longboat's victory in the London marathon was on the street before the cable was received which announced his failvii-e at the twentieth mile. A cup haa deen donated by several '' wealthy citizens '.' to be competed for by two tnwn baseball trams. The cup is made of galvanjzed iron, nicely decorated with gold paint and was manufactured by Norris Bros. Mr. Gso. Mitchell cauvht a trout last week which measmed 16 inches in length and weighed 1 pound 9 ounces. He had to have assislance in landing the beauty. Charlie Moaier says this ia not a large aized troat, that there ia one up at Beat- tifl'a creek, which ia much larger than th ;t, but ha h»dn't been able to get it- - yet. Someof the brightspeoiioantsof human- ity which hang around the street corners in town at nights one night recently emptied the automatic collar button machine in front of Boyd's store. What value so many collar butrons woul'l be to anyone is hard to under- stand. Someday these thieves will come to grief. The usual camping party will go to Ewart's Like, near Berkeley, fur their annual uamp, leaving here' next Siturday. The party will consist of Dr. E. C. Mur- ray, Will Somws, Charley Ottewell, Charley Riohirdeon. kiso Geo. Richard- son and Dr. Fred Murray of Toronto. A baker's dozen of Dundalk's prettiest young ladies will also go into camp at Bell's lake next week. There is no ci«n- nrction between th.e two ^aotiona of thi* item Mrs. Wm. Johnston of Durham was feund dead in an out house on Thursday morning of last wi?tk. Mr. Johnston is organizer for the Choset: Frienos and was nut ne.ir Meaf'iid nrganiziiiga lodge when the fa<l liens reached him. The Huicide theory i.s hell hy some, while others think medicine tiikeu in too great a qusDti'y to ea,% pain was the cause of deiith. The d.'ceased lady leaves a grown up family. She was 68 years 3f a^e the day of her duaih. Mr. .\lfred Heard of SeatiU, who visited his cou"in, Mr. John Heard here Lwt week, i& iheyuuugest sou uf Thomas B. Heard, who lived at the Basswood Corners and sold i.ut to John M. Davis some thirty years ago. Mr. Alfred Heard is a man of thirty-live years of aaje and id a iiiu>ician of c iiimderable ability in his line and is lu:«ler uf a band in con- i.ei'tion with the Volunteers of America, an o!l'.-hoot of the Salv;ition Army. Mr. Heard i.s now on his way home to Seattle. Mr. J.iines Uopps met with a nasty Hcuideut Inst week lliat was bad enough but might easily have been much worse. While III. hitching a horse the animal be- came fritctioUN and in attempting to stop it Jim fell and the Hnimal stepped on his leg. The too coik ti'te a bad ^nsh in his right leg near the body. The large art- ery had I narrow esoap') from being sev- ered. Jim is this week walkinit around, but he still puts his foot down very care- fully and moves slowly. Mr. M. K. Richardson and Miss Chris- tene Richardson, Flesherton, and Mr. and MrH. I. B. Lucas of Harkdale, left Wednesday morning for England. The party will sail by the C. P, R. stesmahip Lake Erie on Saiurdty morning from Moutrenl. The Lake Erie is fitted up in modern style with Marconi wireless and all modern conveuiencea and no doubt the party will have a most enjoyable trip. They are built of the right material to appreciate it, loo. Mr. Lucas haa never crossed the aalty billows, but if we mis- take not he can stand considerable shak- ing up. He will probably head off the mill de nicr before it begins. Mr. Rich- ardson will look Into child savins raeth- oda while away, but does not think Eug- land has much to teach us in that regard. The Methodist Ladies' Aid garden p.'irty on Tuesday eveiiinK was a great success. The ladies' baseball match be twuen Maikdale and Ceylon teams prov- ed a most interostinu snd exciting atfair. For Oeyinn Kate McLeod pitched most of the match and showed that she knosrs a little bit about the itame. Her sister, Bella, bacRstopped and certainly starre'l it there. No ball was too high, wide or swift for berto catch. Then the Ceylon girls too, could steal bases, and run like dears . The Markdale girls could play S'jme, also, but somehow Ceyh<n came out on top to the exient of 38-15 runs. The Flesherton Band was present. Tea was served in the agricultural h-tll. The pro- ceeds were in the neighborhood of $70. The Grey Old Boys' excursion from To- ronto on Saturday next will, no doubt, briiiK the usual large number of visitors to town. In this connection we might say that the bacigo chosen by the Old Boys this year is the handsomest thing in that tine yet produced. It ia in the form of a large buitcn with ribbon attach- ment and bears an unusually fine view of Eugenia falls, taken from the west bank of the river on the mountain's brink. It is the only picture wo have seen taken froiii this point and was photographed by the editor of this paper a couple oi years ago The badges sell for only ten cents and everybody should get one. The idea of using a bit of Grey county scenery on thsse badges each year should proye very popular. Xhey would be something worth preserving. Last week our attention was drawn to the fact that in the r»i<ort of the first of July tradea procession we had omitted mentioning Mr. J. H. Heard's blacksmith display. We refer tu it at this lute date in order to point a moral. Occasionally people feel sore at a news- paper because of somo unintentional error or omiaaion and instead of inform- ing the editor of the omission they never attempt to get it rectified but hold it against the paper. If thsy could see the huiry and ruah that sometimes occurs in order to get foims made up in time to catch the mails charity would find a greater place in the hearts of many, and they would ev^ wonler that there are not more errors. -When anything of the above nature occurs we want our atten- tion drawn to it, when it will be rectified in every instance. J uat t wo years ai;o Mr. John Breen of the the suburbs had his ankle brcken while fixing a npwer. Friday last he waa driv- m^^ bay rake on bia aou's term, a mil* and a quarter south of the village, when soma portion of the harness broke, par- tially letting the shafts drop. "This caused the h'>rse to attempt a runaway, with the result that some part of the ma- chine struck Mr. Breen several severe blows on the side, breakinii three ribs. When Mr. Breen got off the machine he started for home without lotting hia son know he was injured, and managed to walk the whole mile home, but upon eDtetrin*; his own yard fell on the grass snd had to be assistetl into the bouse. He i^ confined to his bed with the injury. Hia wonderful grit and de- termination is matter of general comment. PERSONALS Mis3 InaBeattieishome from theSault.

It was at this time that Chamberlain's Cjlic, Cholera and diarrhoea Remedy waa first brought into use. It proved moie successful than any other remedy or treat- ment, and baa for thirty-five years main lained that record. From a small begin- ning its sale and use has extended to every part of the United States and to many foreign countries. Nine druggists out of ten will recoinmoud it when their opinion is asked, although they have other medicines that pay tbein a greater profit. It con always be depended upon, even in the most severe and dangerous cases. For sale by W. E. Richardson. Un Monday r.ightall.the searchlights in Quebec were turned on the clouds.
