Union Service.

The union service held Sunday evening
in the Church of the Messiah under the
auspices OF the anti-saloon league attracted
an audience that filed every seat. The
preliminary services were conducted by
Rev. j. Edward Wright, and prayer was
offered by Rev. DR.. Norman Seaver, A
pleasant feature of the musical programme
was the offertory, "The Holy City" superb
ly sung by Mrs. Hattie P. Willard.
Rev. G. o. Judkins, pastor of Trinity
church, gave the address. No abstract of
Mr.. Judkins' remarks will be attempted.
His address throughout was strong, eloquent
logical and convincing, entirely out OF the
beaten path Of so-called temperance adj
dresses, and expressions Of hearty approval
were heard on every hand at its close.
Mr.. Judkins' theme was Reasons for the
Existence OF the Anti-Saloon League" In
an original and interesting manner the old
and new methods of reform along temper
ance lines were dwelt upon, and the three
cardinal features of the anti-saloon move
ment-agitation, legislation and law en-
forcement - were separately considered.
This admirable address, and the meeting
in general infused new life into the local
organization.

r In some cases the patient is unable
to bear the exposure and fatigue of a
journey to the city. In other cases it
is either inconvenient or impossible to
leave the daily avocations and home du-
ties and in almost all cases the expense
of the journey and the price of board
and lodging would pay for several
months treatment by correspondence.
Where treatment is conducted by cor
respondence a full statement of the
history, symptoms and complications
of the disease is recorded in book kept
for the purpose, and upon receipt of
each report the condition of the patient
towards convalescence is noted down.
Send me a statement of your case.
Write down everything you can think
about that would throw any light or
give any information about your all
ment. When 1 receive this statement
will in due course forward you my
opinion of your case, tell you what it is
best to do, just what sort of treatment
you require, and what length of time it
would be advisable to continue such
treatment. My fees for treatment are
always very reasonable, and within the
reach of everybody. DR.. Sproule, B. A,

Nimble PickpOckets.

g. W. Kidder returned Saturday morning
from weeks visit to New York and Wash.
ington. He said that while the excursion
lists were en- route for New York last Mon
day they had several experiences with
pickpockets. About nine o'clock in the
evening the excursion train arrived at
Palmer, Mass, where time was given for
hasty lunch. During the mad rush at the
lunch counter the pickpockets got in their
work. George Crandall of Berlin was re-
lieved Of S25 in cash and return ticket to
New York, and Eleazer House, also of Ber-
lin, had $40 in money taken from his per-
son.
One old gentleman caught one of the
light.fngered gentlemen in the act of at
tempting to pick his pocket, but was not
strong enough to detain the man until he
could summon assistance. At New Lon
don, Conn, as the excursionists were leav-
ing the cars for the boat, they were again
raided by pickpockets but none of their
victims were from this vicinity. Undoubt-
eddy several OF these sneak thieves will be
in this city on the day Of the Dewey cele-
bration. This fact should be borne in mind
by the residents and visitors.

Windsor County Fair.

The hfty-fourth fair of the Windsor Coun-
ty Agricultural Society was held on the
society's grounds in Woodstock, September
26-28, and was good one in spite OF the
unfavorable weather. The attendance on
Wednesday was less than usual, but Thurs
day being fine day, made up for 1t in part.
The display Of stock was excellent, veg
etables in abundance and OF fine quality,
and apples conspicuous by their absence.
A couple Of swans shown by George Aitkin
OF Woodstock, and brought by him from
Scotland this summer, attracted much at
tention as did some English pheasants,
brought by him also. The society has this
season built a new floral hall and machin.
cry and carriage room. The building ia
two stories high. 100 feet long, with a fine
room for use as picnic lunch room and
observatory. The fancy work was in
abundance and of exceptional excellence.
Shortly after dinner q carriage containing
the President of the society, and Hon. w
w. Circuit halted before the grand stand.
The president said he had persuaded the
General to address the people which he did
upon agricultural topics, chiefly, after 8
humorous beginning. He was received
with applause and his not lengthy remarks
were cheered. The society needs to make
some further improvements by removing or
repairing the old floral hall and in accom-
modations for gentlemen.

HOLD Your BRKATH.-DoNT COUGH
There is nothing more irritable 10 cough
than coughing. Constant coughing is like
scratching a wound 80 long as it is done
the wound will not heal. When tempted to
cough draw long breath and hold it until
it warns and soothes every air cell, and
some benefit will soon be received from
this process. The nitrogen which is thus
refined acts on the mucous membrane,
allays the desire to cough and gives the
throat and lungs chance to heal. AT the
same time the use of DR.. Humphreys speci-
fc "77'' will aid nature in her efforts to re-
cuperate. AT druggists or sent postpaid;
