The Toronto General Hospital is mak- ing a series of tests of a."new theory" in medical science, which they catim will revolutionize the theory and practice of medicine. The system is, "Find the germ of any disease, then by a method of increasing the patient 'a ability to digest o.• kill off the microbes by increasing the white corpuscles of the blood and filling it with serum, make his recovery •-pos- sible." This is in . reality Dr. T. A. Slo- cum.'s theory of thirty years ago. " Dr.. T. A. Slocum said : "The white corpus- cles of the blood are the foe vol disease. If I can sufficiently increase these and strengthen digestion and circulation, 1 have solved the problem of overcoming disease." Dr. Slocum' devoted his life to - the working out of this problem. - When, after innumerable experiments through lays and nights and months and years. JI patient labor, he discovered that woriderVil 'remedy.

At a meeting of the Board of Direct- ors of Markham Fair, held at the.Tre- mont House Wednesday it was decided to spend $1500 in im rovments on the grounds this year.. The _grounds com- mittee were instructed to remove the old palace. for the past few years used as a stable, to the south end of the grounds, and fit it up for a cattle stable; also to build one hundred new horse stalls.

Harvey —The season of the year has again arrived when that dread of the rural community the automo- bile has appeared upon the scene. From now until late in the au- tumn, they bill .be traversing the. public roads at the rate anywhere from twenty to sixty miles an hour,- and taking delight in scar- ing every horse that comes' into view, no matter what the conse- quences may be. There was a time, when, during the busy sea- son on the farm,. . the farmers wives could drive into the_ that to the weekly shopping. u time .is past, as few women care to run the risk of having a -runa- way with its serious consequences which so frequently results from meeting an automobile..- - In the village one of the greatest objec- tions to the auto is the furious rate at which they are running causing the dust to .rise in clouds, blowing on to the verandas and into the houses, Should a door or window be left -open.. As the uumber of antes mobiles is rapidly increasing this nuisance will se greater this year than ever. This is an evil that we are not compelled to en- dure with impunity. The laws 'of the country require- that the. speed of automobiles shall not ex- ceed a certain limit. A'' violation of this law is punishable by a heavy fine, and it should not be a very difficult matter to have the law enforced, at least so far as the village is - concerned. A few heavy fines imposed on reckless antomobiiists should have a de- terrent effect on others, and no realer pleasure could be exper- ienced by the farmers aswell as by our own residents than to see a number of these fellows hand out their roll of bills in .payment - of fines. - A • decision given by - Judge Winchester in the Surrogate Court in connection with the will of the late Miss Emma C. Tuckett, of To- ronto Junction, lays down the law to be that a will is void if witness- ed by the -husband of the benefici- ary. 1lfiss Tuckett left her estate to her mother, and her father act-. ed'as witness. A former will how- ever, properly executed, was alloned - probate, the terms of which were practically identical. ca Let Others Help •you To recover your stolen property.
