It may be in vain for me to attempt at assuring you that lean offer equal good value ^ to that claimed for the Departmental and other City Stores -, Q/8 (excepting it be of course that used as an advertising o' medium) Why not ? Our rents, taxes, insurance, fuel and such like are much lower ; we buy in the same markets and handle largely the same goods. With some the practice of sending outside for goods is intended to add tone to their manner of buying, while the majority again wish to avoid the clashing of the same goods in the town or district. This last difficulty is largely overcome at the STONE STORE and the good results we have clearly shown in our Dress Goods Trade.

New Dress Goods than now offered at the

The same is true of our Ladies’ Jackets, and they are so arranged that you can look over them without trouble. The Klondike Dress Flannelettes so scarce last year are in and going fast.

r The aim or purpose of the book is to l^ve the simple principles of the science of . agriodlture, end to show their bearing upon the art atid practice of agriculture. For kietance, it docs not pretend to instruct how to plow or to drain a field, but explains the principles underlying their operr'-ation, poioting out the benefits, stating the ^rxesults or giving the reasons for the work done. Buch knowledge adds interest to the doing of tho actual work. It would not be possible, nor would it be advisable, to go very exhaustively into the,, subject of ;|;^s aaa attempt agricultural teejih tbe im-
answers, to which can be got by observation ur^y questioning the older members of the family. Such a chapter for instance as that oi\ “Horses” gives a few important points in connection with tlio general form of tho animal, the relation of its small btomach to its feeding and the importance of the food. A few questions bring out the important points. A chapter on “Roads” and “Forestry” contain subjects boiled down to their simplest first principles. The book Î8 not intended for pupils alone, it is written also for farmers of the older class and we would like to see a copy in every rural homo in Ontario. As for its being taught in the public schools, the matter is now in the hands of the farmers themselvee. Any board of trustees may pass a resolution ret^uesting the subject to be taught and the teacher is thereby requested to use this book in the regular work of the school. The trustees of our rural school sections should take action at once and order the introduction of this book into thé schools over which they have control. Tho work is entitled Agriculture by C. C.

The town at onlo.” 'i’hese words were used by Mr. Jas. Crosgroy, for eight years a resident of Port Hope, Ont. Mr. Crosgrey is in tho eiuoloy of Mr. R. K. Scott, who has a feed store on Walton street, and is well and favorably l-x'-owc in town and vicinity. Loss than two years ago Mr. Crosgrey wes the recipi^snt of much sympathy on account of a severe affliction which betel him, depriving him of the use of his right leg, and from doing any labor except a few odd days work. His recovery was wrought 80 suddenly and completely that the Times cousidered the matter would be of sufficient ioi-erest toils reeders to obtain an interview with Mr, Crosgrey, In substance Mr. Crosgrey told the following story of his illness "In April, 1895, I was laid np for seven weeks with typhoid fever, and after I recovered from the fever my right leg began to swell. It was very painful indeed: I and in a few weeks it was three times its I natural size—nearly as large as that tele' phone pole,” and be pointed to a stick of ! timber ten inches in diameter. "Nothing the doctor did gave me any relief, and I consulted another with the same result. I suffered for nearly five months when I noticed that the swelling began to decrease and I became hopeful of recovery. But the improvement only continued for a . short time and then the swelling became . greater and two big ulcers formed on the , inside of the leg above the ankle. Tb> ulcers were right through to the bone aud yon could put that much into them,” and Mr. Crosgrey indicated on bis thumb an inch in length. "For the next year and a half I was treated by four or five doctors but my leg and the ulcers were as bad as over. 1 he doctors pronounced the disease phlebitis or infiamation of the veins. They didn’t se'^m to know what to do for me, however, and J despaired of getting well.” Mr. Crosgrey’e relief came in a strange manner, almost by chance one might say. He tells of it this way ;—"I had a relative living near Teeswater, named V'illiam Baptist. He heard of my condition and ecqt word 10 me to try D»*. Williams’Pink Pills. His rtasoD for rect-mmending them, he staled, was b^'cause they had cured him of serious trouble in both legs, when all ehe had faileu. I decided to try them and in less than five weeks the ulcers were completely healed and the swelling in my legs disappeared. The ulcers never returned and my Irg is just about as eound as the other one. I know that Dr. Williams' Pink Tills alone cured me when doctors and all other medicines failed and I am willing that the details of my illnejs and cure be made known.” Mr. Crosgrey who is 41 years of age, is now at work every day. The nature of his work, that of lifting heavy bags of flour and feed, is proof of his complete recovery. He is a life lor friend of Dr. Williams Pink Pills and never lets an opportunity pass of speaking a good word for them. The above statement was sworn to before the undersigned at Port Hope, on the 17th day of February, 1898. D. H.
