There are about a .dozen lakes scattered through the 'property., and many ` xmarshes suitable for the protection of! game. The timber licenses have ex- pired, and there is a good stand of young timber in many parts of the property, with opportunities for refor- lestation in other places.

The Tablets are; the very best medicine a mother can give her little ones during the dread- ed teething time, because they reg- ulate the stomach and bowels and thus drive out constipation and indi- gestion, prevent colic and diarrhoea and break up colds and simple fevers. Concerning Baby's 0wn_ Tablets, Mrs._John A. Patterson, Scotch Vill- age, N.S., s,ays:- I have six child- ren, and all the medicine they ever_ get is Baby .s Own Tablets.
