ENNISMORE MAN CURED OF CANCER. Ennismore, Jan. 12.â€"Mr. Owen 0’- Connor has just returned from his trip to Brown Hill, 0nt., where he went three weeks ago for treatment of a cancer, which two doctors had pronounced incurable. There is no trace of a cancer to-day on Mr. 0’- Connor’s face. The cure is simply wonderful, not even his best friends holding out any hope of its removal. Mrs Sawder, of that village, is de- serving of more than a passing notice Whatever her remedy for dealing with cancer may be, the‘ results of her treatment are so satisfactory and permanent ‘as to entitle her to an honorable place among the bene- factors of mankind. Mr. O’Connor speaks in the highest terms of the kindness he received at her home, the attention bestowed on his particular case, and the trifling fee charged for her fruitful services. Her home, he says, is patronized by sufferers from this dread disease, from all parts of the continent, and in almost every case she was success- ful.

Complete Drainage System For Whole of Province Windsor, Ont , Jan. ll.â€"-An import- ant project for provincial drainage is under consideration by Hon.

The project will probably l>e crystalized ixlto legislation at the forthcoming session. but its working out will take at least five years. Under existing conditions the Gov- ernment has been confronted not in- frequently with the question of grant- ing drainage aid to one portion of the country at the expense of another. One district secures natisfactory out- let into a river only to muse over- flow and flooding further down the stream. The Minister’s glam contemplates a Governmnnt survey, at all Ontario Riv; era and waterway: md a report there- on.
