Of course, her friends did all they could to keep her cheerful her room was a bower of roses but how she looked forward to evening when Jack could sit by her and talk of his day at the office. Then came the news that he must leave town on busi- ness. She wondered how she could stand the wait until he came home. But Jack, wise fellow, knew v how to bridge the gap. Promptly each evening at nine he called her over Long Distance and told her all the things she wished to hear. Extravagant? ... not a bit ... for night rates are always inexpensive!

With him at the time was his brother, John of Burks Falls ,whc was seriously injured. He sulfered i crushed 'breast bone and face and wrist lacerations and was taken to the Toronto General hospital.

Stuart of Kimberley. There are five brothers and one sister surviving: John of Burks Falls, Jasper of Meaf- ..d, Fred of Flesherton, Robt. of Thornbury and Charles and Mrs. T. Ellis of Kimberley.

ADVERTISE HOME TOWN No business in any town should allow a newspaper published in his town to go -without his narr.3 and business being mentioned in its col- umns, says the American Bantoer. This applies to all kinds of business or provisional men. It does not mean that you should have a whole, half or even a quarter page adver- tisement in each issue of the paper but your name should be mention- ed, if you do not use more than a two line space. A stranger picking i'p a newspaper should be able to tell what business is presented in Che town by looking at the paper. This is the best possible town adver- tiser. The man who does not ad- vertise his business does an injus- tice to himself and the town. The life of a tov,-n depends upon the live, wide awake and liberal advertising business man.

Not in the morning always. The terrific speed of -115 miles an hour has been set by a British air- plane, ami yet there are some Amer- icans who are so egotistic that they tnink their own people cannot be ex- celled in anything. They have still mu.'h to learn.
