I came to the con- clusion from what I read, and the advice oi friends to abandon the filthy and worse than ueless habit, and have not used it in any shape for over two weeks. I feel much better without it, though it took a deter- mined effort to break away from the habit. I have no desire for it now, and would recommend others to do as I did.

Tba-Mkting. â€" The Holland and Euphrasia town line people are noted for givmg good entertainments at their annual tea, and the otie last Tuesday was no exception to the rule. The edibles were abundant and rich. The program was ably sustained, Mr. John Lyons was called to the chair, and a capital chairman he is. The choir discharged their duties with credit to themselves. Several recitations were given in a very creditable manner by children of the congregation, Bev's Grandy, Wilson and Casson of Markdale addressed the audience, Mr. Wilson gave a particul- arly interesting and appreciated ad- dress. Mr. Joseph Hawken came in a little late, but fully made up for tardiness by an eloquant and forcible speecn, Mr. Hawken is one of the most popular and whole soul'd men in that district, and it is always a pleasure to meet him either in private or on the platform.

Proceeds of tea $81.50. We thank Mr. Henry Hamilton for his kindness in driving ten ef us out to above and especially for the capsize. THERE IS NOTHING LIKE IT.

Amecbanioal engineer prophesies that the metal of the future is alnmm- nm, that in a few years it is to displace iron and steel, and revelution- ize the industrial arts. Iron is recon- ed the commonest of all metals, an alaninum compratiyely rare. But aluminum is the most plentiful of all metals. The world contains more of it than cf iren. It is everywhere, •very elay-bed is an aluminum mine .Its tensile streagth is mere than three tons to the square inch greater than that of the Bessemer steel, and is by far the best metal known. A cannon made of it would be three times as strong as one made of steel or gun I metal. It is very stiff and rigid, too â€" three times as rigid as the best of bronze. Another important thing is that it will not- tarnish. Neither air, nor water, nor salt, nor^acids, nor corrosive gases have the slightest effect upon it. Neither does intense heat change its eolor. It is the best conductor of heat known in the world, alt!o of electrieity. It would make the best telegraph wire?, having t^ue the conducting power of copper, with only one-third of its weivUt and lasting practically for ever. It is very ductile, and can be worked easily either cold or hot. It is suitable ior anytbiui; that iron, or bteel, or copjier, or brass, or broiize, or gold, or silver is used for, from the wheels of a watch to a monster steam engine. It is by far the ligutest in weight, compared with other metals, being little more than one third the we^t of oa'st iron. To he exact, a cubic foot.ot aluminum weighs onty 166 lbs. The same siz« block of cat iron weigbs 45Mbs of wrought iran 487 lbs; of copper 554^ lbs of lead, 709 of brass, 528 \\)B and of gold, about 12,000 lbs. In brief, it is the lightest, easiest work- ed tuoat durable, and" generally most HANDY TO HAVE. Every household should keep som» ready remedy at hand for painful diseases, sudden attacks of inflam- mation and accidental injuries. Such a remedy is best found m Hagyard's Yellow Oil for internal and external use. It cures rheumatism, sore throat, croup, neuralgia, lamis back, sprains, bruises and bums. A SOURCE OF GREAT TROUBLE. Probably the most prolific source of chronic ills is indigestion or dyspep- sia, caasmg unhealthy bluod. Yet taken in time it is positively curable. Burdock Blood Bitters has cured some of the worst cases known, even of 16 years' duration. If troubled with in- digestion try it.
