Dundalk, Priceville and Maxwell doctors each have automobiles 4n order to give quick service- They are not open to the chaige of being "slow coachea." Mr. John Chard baa sold his farm near Markdale and will move to !• lesberton this fall, where we hope he and his esti- mable wife will spend many happy years in the evening of their life.

Mr. and Mrs. Field of Toronto. Mrs. 'Smith and two children of Maine, Mr. â-  and Mrs. Stephenson and four children I and Miss Dorge of Toronto, are guests of Mr. and Mrs. R. Best. Radley's hotel at the Station was burned to the groud on Thursday morn- ing last. The tire is skated to have started from an everhsated chimney Mr. Radley put on the fire at 4.40 and at 5 o'clock the roof was burning merrily. The building was entirelp consumed together with contents, but the stable' were saved. A number went over from the village in autos to help fight the â- tire. We understand there was an in. surance of 92600 on building and •ontents. Mr. W. L. McFarland, who was seri- ously injured in Ihe train-auto wreck four weeks ago, and taken to his summer 'home at Eagllsh's Lake, is 'naking sub' st-Hitial improvement, and e.\pect8 to b" able to return to the city about the end of the month.

The Magistrate imposed a doe of I5.0O and costs or 30 days. .\ son of Mr. John McKinnon, South Line, fall from a haymow to the barn rtoor on Tuesday, and susl'iined severe injuries, including a broken arm. He was taken to Gwea Sound hospital. Mr. Johnston Cullens delivered on the market here Tuesday a load of live .stock that netted him nearly one thouiaod dollars. The bunch consisted of eighteen lambs and eleven young cattle. This ia probably the record in this district for one farm. The recent rise in the price of bread from 10 to 14 cents a loaf does not mean aa much as would appear on the face of it. The old price was for a 2^ lb lo*t and the new price is for a three pound loaf, which the government has stand- ardized all over the province. Rev. Jamea Dudgeon left on Tuesday to take his little daughter, Marjorie, to the oithoepedic hospital in Toronto. The little girl has been a sufferer from intiammatory rheumatism for some time. While the rheumatism is better her joiuti require treatment Mr Dudgeon will be absent a couple of Sundays and his pulpit will be supplied. Lieut. A. W. McKoigbt, son of Mr. Robert McKnight, waa killed in France on Auitust 11. saps an Owen Sound despatch. Lieut. McKnightwas with the engineers. He was home on leave of absence laat winter after being wounded with shrapnel, returning to the front ia April. Ha was 'i9 years of age. A mysterious fire occurred on the Old Durham Road Tuesday about noon, when a frame barn owned by Mr. W. J. Meads was burned to the ground, together with 100 bushels of old grain .>nd twelve tons of hay. Two horses were got tut and are still living The tire originated in the remains of an old strawstack outside the barn and was seen shortly after it started up. Efforts' were made to extinguish it, but without avail, the wind carrying it to the t)irn, which went up like tinder in the extreme heat. The theory is that a piece of tin in the straw focused the sun'.'i rajs and started the blaze. There was an insur- ance of 91000 ou the barn and $500 on the contents. A runaway that caused more than ord. inary excitement was pulled off in town on Thursday morniog. .\ liverv horse standing in front of Fisher's barber shop became frightened at an auto and bolted across the street to Munshaw's hotel, where it mounted the cement platform. At this point it left the bugg/ wi'h a wheel and shaft smashed and sailed across the square, striking the sidewalk ii front of Richardson's drug store. The shoes on the horee operated like roller skates on a human novice and it came down broadside, its head hitting heavily on the hard pavement. Oue foot went through the basement window in the drug store. Had it not fallen, there is little doubt but that it would have crash- ed through a hundred dollar plate jla.ss window. Xa it was, a faw dollars will cover all the damage done. It was some e.icitement for the few moments that it lasted. Eugenia-Colling^ood Line The Hydro right-of-way men were here again last week wh^n they made another trip to Eugenia. (Jn the previ- ous visit, a week or ten days before, they inspected a couple of routes, and on this laat visit added a third Which of these will be used for the new transmission line has not yet been announced. Neith- er have particulars of the several lines been given. It is understood, howaver, that a service in the near futu'°e to Thorn bury and Meaford may in no small measure prove a determining force. A route that will bring the line within reasonable distance of these places, especially Thornbury, will effect a saving of many dollars and in view of the great increase in the cost of construction every mile cut oil' means something. Speaking to one who is familiar with the country between here and Eugenia, he expressed the opinion that the short- est route would be by way of Feversham, chen:e to the 12th line of Osprey to Rob Roy and east through the Pretty River Valley :o the 10th line of Nottawasaga, thence north to Culliogwood, entering the town by Sixth street. As no time can be lost in respect to the erec'ion of the line, it ia expected that the route will be announced in a few days, probab- ly thia week. In regard to Ihe cost of the construc- tion of this line it will be interesting to know that instead of 9-i,0i3O per mile us before, it will be $4,000. This is due to the increased cost of poles, of labor and of material. As to the material some changes will have to be made, the most important probably being the substitu- tion of copper for aluminum wire. This change ia wholly due to the price of alu- minum, which we are told has advanced to a price that makes it prohibitive fur this purpose. As a conse<{uence the wire that will be used will necessarily have to be heavier, though the aggregate cost will not be nearly so great. At Cullingwuod the sub-station will probably have to be enlarged and additional appar- atus installed. ThLi ia work that would doubtless be carried on simultaneously with the construction of the line. â€" Bul- letin.
