For about twenty years Cook ha3 been a thorn in the flesh of the local policy When the Great War brohe out he was serving a term in the Penitentiary, bat was granted parole to enlist. On his return to town he purchased a farm in East Garafraxa Township, west of Orangeville. At regular periods he was caught on the farm operating liquor stills. For the year he has been experimenting with turf or sort of peat found in one sec- tion of the farm, and chemists have been sucecssful in extracting several ingredients including wood alcohol from it. It is not thought he will be granted bail as the penalty for the offence is life imprisonment and; lashes. His preliminary trial will take place before Police Magistrate Hu?H Falconer at Orangeville on Monday next. -Read The Advance advertiaeawBts. Secure your long style sap backets at F. G.

Camack, who was 41 years of age and a bachelor, resided three miles north of Kimberley and had his sister keeping house for him until last fall when she went to - California on a visit to some relatives, and during the winter he had been living alone. On Thursday morning he telephoned Dr. J. F. McKee of Thombury and told him he was not feeling well, and that he was very nervous, and asked him to come and visit him. The doctor could not g^et away just at the time, bat drove out in the latter part of the afternoon. When he went in the house he could find no person around and going on through and out to the back door he discovered the prostrated body of Camack just out- side of the summer kitchen. Dr. McEee examined the body and soon discovered the cause of death The onforttinate man had placed the muzzle of a .22 rifle to his right tem- ple and pulled the trigger, with the result that the bullet tore a hole right through his brain, and it is thought that death was almost instaotaneooa. As soon as possible Dr. McKee re- ported the circumtances to Dr. T. E. Bennett^ Coroner„ of Meaford, who later visited the scene and made some further investigations. It waa very evident that the deceased had taken his own life, as there was a small sum of money found on a shelf in the kitchen and no signs of there having been anyone else around the place. The body was still warm when found by Dr. McKee. Dr. R^nnett finally decided that an inquest wa_ onneeesa- ary. t If you want to get well booted or rubbered CALL AT THOS. CLAYTON FLESHERTON Special prices in Men's Fine Shirts -AEROPLANE FORCED TO LAND AT RED WIXG Great excitement prevailed among the residents of Redwing vicinity on Friday about 11.40ajn. when an aeroplane of the Curtiss type landed in their midst on J. M. McCallum's farm. The scene of lanHing was soon a mecca tor citizens for miles around who eagerly sought mementos of the event by cutting or sawintr off bits of the aeroplane. The aeroplane, driven by Eng. Fleming, was making a flight from Hamilton to Camp Borden, euid had left the former place about two hours before. Fleming mistook the waters of Georgian Bay for that of Lake Simeoe and had come down to locate his bearings. The landing was harder than anticipated, and the undercar- riage of the machine gave way, while a wing crashed into a stump. The engine, a ninety horsepower, t; still in good condition. The machine was of an older type of make and was due to be overhauled soon. The machine was owned by Jack Elliott. Hamilton, who possesses others. The wrecked aeroplane was shipped back to Hamilton via the nil route. â€" Review-Herald. Large size Wool Shawls $1.50 ALL DRY GOODS TO CLEAR AT THE LOWEST POSSIBLE PRICES.
