Edwin Clay of Pugwash, Nova Scotia, writes as
follows:
MIR. JAMES |. I.FELLows Sir
Having while at your establishment, carefully ex-
annei your prescriptions, and the method of prepar-
ing your Compound Syrup of ilypophosphites felt
anxious TO giveit II fair trial In my practice. For
the last twelve months have done so, and find that
in incpcnt consumption, and other diseases of the
throat and lungs ii has done wonders. In restoring
persons suffering from the effect ofdphthcra, and the
cough following typhoid fever, prevalent in this
gon ii is the best remedial agent have ever used
But for persons suffering from exhaustion of the
powers of the brain and nervous system, from long
continued study teaching or in those Of eN
haustion from which so many young men suffer,
know of no better medicine for restoration to health
than your Compound syrupof Hypophosphites.

CREEPING UP THE STAIRS.

In the softly falling twilight
Ola weary, weary day,

Where the children were at play,
was breeding DER some trouble,
That had met me unawares.
When n little voice came singing,
"NIc is creepin' up tae stairs.
All il touched the tenderest heart string.
With breath and force divine,
And such melodies awakened
As mere words can ne'er define;
Aud ! turned to see your darling,
All forgetful of my cares,
When | saw the little creature
Slowly creeping up the stairs.
Step by step she bravcly clambored
On her little hands and knees,
Keeping up constant chattering
Like mag pie in the trees,
Till ut last she reached the tOpmost,
When DER all her worlds affairs
She, delighted, stood victor:
After creeping up the stairs.
Painting heart, behold an image
of mans brief and struggling life,
Whose best prizes must be captured
With "A noble, earnest strife;
Onward, upward reaching ever,
Bending to the weight of cares,
Hoping, fearing, still expecting,

by their side may be no rail,
Hands and knees mas often pain US
And the heart may almost fail,
Still above there is the glory
Which no sinfulness impairs,
With its rest and joy forever.

New Indian War,

There has been trouble brewing for
some time at the agency of the White
River Utes in Colorado. One Meeker has
lately been the Indian agent there. The
country is to the west of the Leadville re-
gion and the Utes are mountain Indians.
This tribe which numbers some 5000,
though sometimes SET as high as $4,000,
has generally been peaceable. But whites
have been encroaching on the land that
the Utes understood was theirs and lately
at the agency Mr.. Meeker has insisted on
cultivating some ground that the Indians
thought he had no right to. This made
bad feeling and the Utes finally made
Meeker give up his agricultural venture.
The former agent, Mr.. Danforth. had no
trouble at this agency at all.
About ten days ago Major Thornburgh
with troops was ordered to this agency
and when he had nearly arrived there his
command was ambushed Monday, Sept.
90, at Bad canon by the Utes. Major
Thornburgh refused to attack the Indians
us under the limitations imposed by late
laws he would not be justified. So the
Indians surrounded his troops and in their
assault killed dozen or more including
Major Thornburgh and wounded twenty or
thirty besides.
The remaining troops under Capt.
Payne. who was wounded, intrenched
themselves as well as possible and sent
for help. Troops have been hurried to
their aid and there is report that a COM
pany of cavalry succeeded in reaching
Payne last Thursday.
But meantime the Utes at the agency
have killed Agent Meeker and his family
and there is great excitement throughout
Colorado especially in the Leadvlle region
which is near the scene of warfare. The
whole affair is yet in such shape that the
outcome o. it cannot be foretold. 1t may
quiet down without further outbreaks and
may blaze up into quite a general Indian
war in western Colorado The whites in
this affair as in others of like kind seem to
have been the parties first in fault and
thereby to have aroused Indian ferocity.

and were much complimented by the
result of our consideration and on movino
away mentally asked ourself-when9
The Mortified officers Of the society
told us they wished it to be understood
that Mortified people do not claim all
the credit for this most successful fair, as
all the other towns represented have done
their part fully, and without their aid they
could not have succeeded in making it
what it has been.
The premiums will all be paid and
money left in the treasury.
The crowd on Wednesday and Thurs.
day was estimated from $500 to 5000 PEG.
pie.
In several particulars the fair was no,
ticeable rs showing that the Dog river
valley farmers are enterprisng and intel.
ligent.
The show of oxen and steers, and con-
versation with farmers evidenced the fact
that it pays to keep oxen on the farm, as
did our fathers. 1t is an easy matter
to sell pair Of cattle every year for from
1925 to $3.50, and have others to take their
places. We were particularly pleased to
see the interest manifested by the boys in
handling their little steers. We may feel
sure such boys will make good farmers
and good citizens, Let farmers encourage
the boys in this respect, and they will not
be as likely to be left alone in their old
age, and obliged to leave the farm because
the boys don't like farming, and will not
stay at home.
The good order maintained here was
no doubt owing principally to the fact
that no beer or old cider was allowed to
be sold on the grounds, consequently there
was no cause for disturbance. How much
longer will it take to learn the officers
of other fairs that it does not pay to sell
the privilege Of violating the law for few
dollars?
Il We shall long remember this as one Of
the most pleasant and profitable fairs we
have ever attended.
