The child was badly burned on the back, thighs, and legs, but medical help being hastily summoned it was hoped that the youngster‘s life might be saved.

There were over 500 at the Oddfelâ€" lows‘ picnie at Wilson‘s farm, Golden City, ten years ago. The crowds come from Timmins, South Poreupine, the Dome, Schumacher, and other points, the trains being overloaded and autos, Ten years ago The Advance urged all to go berry picking. **‘Save the wild fruit this year,""‘ said The Adâ€" vance, ‘‘The raspberries are deliciâ€" ous! _ The blueberries will soon be ready! Tame fruit is not as plentiâ€" ful as last year, while the need for fruits for jam for the soldiers overâ€" seas and for the sailors is pressing in these days of war. To pick the wild berries, consequently, is to consult the best interests of patriotism and the pocketbook at this time. In one article ten years ago The Adâ€" vance told of a whole series of neeiâ€" dents and incidents happening in town. One child fell into a pail of boiling water and died from the scalds and shock. Another youngster fell from a high chair and had a narrow eseape from fatal injury. A women, suffering from mental derangement made an unexpected and unprovoked i‘taeck with a elub upon a young man who happened to pass her house. Arâ€" other woman had to be arrested for the streets with a rifle threatening to shoot anyhbedy and everybody in sight. A young man at the Hollinger took a drink from a bottle on a shelf, thinking the clear liquid to be water, but it proved to e a_ solution containing eyanide. Prompt medical attertion saved that young man from joining his foreâ€" fathers. Two small children secured some patent medicine tablets which they swallowed..

Henry, appointed Minister 39¢ per Peck TIIE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO The editorial articlese in The Adâ€" vance ten years ago were on ‘divers questions but all more or less concernâ€" ed with the war. One commended the Timmins police for enforeing the ‘‘idleness law;""‘ another dealt with the gold situation; and a third dealt with the preference apparently shown to aliens in some places. In reporting the police court proâ€" ceedings ten years ago, The Advance said, in part:â€"Thursday seemed to be an unlucky day for alien enemies here, who have been acting up to their naâ€" tional characteristiecs. The big fellow known as "‘the King of the Bulgariâ€" ans‘‘ was sentenced to one year‘s imâ€" prisonment for bringing girls to Timâ€" mins for immoral purposes. When he The Advance ten years ago reminded the judge who allowed Consovitech to go on suspended sentence when conâ€" viected of seditious utterances, that the said Consovitch was again under arrest for illegal gactivities at Brantâ€" ford. _ Consovitch was the orator whose arrest at Timmins caused what was called the ‘"*riot‘"‘ chere. Consoâ€" yitech was in trouble several times durâ€" ing the war, and The Advance was inâ€" clined to be bitterly sareastic in askâ€" ing why he was able to perform as he ing did Many may imagine that the matter of holdâ€"ups, masked robberies, etc., is a recent importation into Canada, but those with good memories know this is not so. The Advance ten years ago told of two masked highwaymen with guns holding up 35 Canadian Northern Railway labourers near Parry Sound and securing about $5,000.00 in cash The men robbed were chiefly alien enemies. The alien enemics in this country kept the authorities so busy in one way or another that time was never available to track drown the masked highwaymen that did the Parry Sound trick. The alien enemes in this country during the war nearly all made big money. They would not trust their money in the banks here as a rule, but carried it around on their persons, often in body belts One alien arrested here for drunkenâ€" ness had about a hundred dollars in his pockets when searched. When he sobered up, he wanted to get out on bail. For a joke one of the police told the man if he could produce $500 he could likely get out at once. The police were sure the man had no money on him as he had been thorâ€" oughly searched. The fellow turned his back to the police, and shortly produced the $500.00 in bills, and it developed that ‘he had a further 3700 hidden on his person. Another Ausâ€" trian was carrying nearly $2,000.00 when arrested for some minor breach of the dJaw. of* Agriculture a short time previous to the event, was unable to be present. In this connection it may be noted that The Advance gave considerable publicity to the three weeks‘ course in domestic seience offered at Monteith to young ladies of 16 and over. The course was free and only $15.00 being charged for board at Monteith for the three weeks. | NESTLES Produced in Canada by the Makers of the famous Nestle‘s Baby 0 Lou~ (WUho Worship at the Aliar of @OU[}L 1 OUâ€"who are in search of youth‘s great giftâ€" a faultless complexionâ€"first look to your health.
