Tm Ar B.tnnow.â€"-There was a tea A Bovth Dcrncrrvz.â€"For a. long at.Baddow on Wednesday night, but, time past a private still has been in owing to the intense cold, nobody that , operation in the township of Stanhope, we know of went from the Falls. and, consequently, we have no report of the proceedings. Gor Ilsa DtrLoat.t.â€"â€".\Iiss Nio, who has been studying for some months past at the Loretto Convent. Lindsay, re- turned home on Saturday last. having finished her course and obtained a dip- loma as short-hand reporter, type writer and book keeper. Parmesanâ€"Ah. Geo. Lytlc, of the Lindsay Watchman. was at the Falls on Tuesday and paid the Gazette a fraternal visit.....\Ir. J. A. Gillogly. General Agent of the Sun Life Assur- ance Co. of Canada, was in town this week paying a death claim to Mrs. Po- cocke of 81,000 on the life of her lately deceased husband. Sr. Janns‘s CllUltClI.â€"-Rev. Carl S. Smith will preach morning and evening on Sunday, Feb. 10th, at St. James's church, Fenelon Falls, and at 2.30 at St. Peter's, Verulam, on Missions. Col- lection for diocesan missions. A good attendance is requested. Rev. W. Faro- cOmb will preach the same day at Cam- eron, Cambray and Lindsay. Amino-marmoâ€"The Toronto Mail and Empire have amalgamated, and a paper bearing both titles will henceforth sing the praises of Tory principles. The Empire never paid and was a white elephant to its stockholders who will no doubt be glad to get rid of it. The death of the Empire is the subject of a clever cartoon called ” The Wake ” by 8. Hunter in Wednesday's World. CARNIVAL.-â€"-The second grand mas- querade and fancy dress carnival of the season will be held in the skating rink next Wednesday evening, and the man- agers will spare no pains to make it a success. The rates of admission will be as follows: Ladies and children, 15 cents; ladies in costume free; gentlemen 25 cents. Season tickets suspended for the night. For list of attractions and other particulars sec posters. 'I‘nn PULP Minnâ€"After a few days’ idleness, owing to the breaking of a coupling, the pulp mill resumed opera- tions on Monday morning; and it is to be hoped that a long time will elapse before another stoppage occurs. There is some talk of adopting an invention by which the expense of making pulp will be very materially reduced. but as the machinery, which is made in the States, is so costly that the duty on it will amount. to three or four thousand dollars, it is not likely to be introduced until the question whether it will pay or not. has been definitely settled in the. affirmative. Twm CALVEsâ€"Last Monday a thoroughbred Holstein cow owned by the McGee brothers, of Fenelon, gave birth to twin bull calves, which at last accounts were doing well. The Messrs. McGee (Alexander and Robert) ac- quired the Hall farm near Powles's cor- ners about six years ago, and it soon egan to be. seen that they had good heads on their strong bodies, and were working in a way sure to lead to success. At the last municipal elections Alic. was nominated for the Council, and made a very good run considering that he is a young man and not known to many of the electors outside of his own neighborhood. “ Don't You Think Those Cheap?

During the tiny the cold grew more intense ; Tuesday night was worse than the one preceding it; and early on “'ednesdny morning two, at least, of the village thermometers were down to 30 below zero. Next morning when our villagers get up they found that a welcome change had taken place. the temperature having risen about 1‘3 degrees. and since then it has gone .up considerably higher. The cold at dill"- erent points during the “snap” was simply frightful; at Duluth it was 40 degrees. at Rainy River 4‘3. and at Saginaw 65 degrees below zero. A man who came to Fcnelon Falls from Bob caygeon on the stage on Tuesday morn- ing was very badly frozen. humorous deaths by ireexing are reported both In the States and Canada. and as some of the men of the neighbor. hood imbibed too freely and frequently of the product, the women were natur- ally anxious to have it discovered and suppressed. With that end in view a detective was set to work. and hunted and spied in vain ; but'what he. couldn't do was done a few days ago by a cow, who accidentally obtained access to a quantity of high wines or whisky and drank so much that she became literally dead drunk. Our informant did not ascertain to whom she belonged, but whoever owned her skinned her, cut her up and sold her to the foreman or cook of liowry S: Son's lumbering shan- ty, a few miles away in the adjoining [Own-Ship 0f Sherborue. Whether the beef produced an exhilarating effect on the men who ate it, and whether the illicit distillery has been found and dc- stroyed or is yet in operation, are inter- esting points upon which the villager from whom we obtained the above in- formation could not enlighten us. An OWL Gammonâ€"On Saturday, January 12th, Mr. Thomas Junkin of Verulam found the remains of a hen which some predatory bird or beast had killed and partly eaten during the night, and. as it was suspected that an owl had done the deed, one of the boys nailed the hen and a steel trap close together on the roofof the barn. Next morning 'the‘bait was there but the trap was gone and no one expected to see it again ; but on Sunday. the 26th, Mr. Junkin \vent over to visit his relative, .\lr. Lancelot Patterson, whose farm is about a mile from his own, and who, soon after he got there, asked him whether he had lost a trap. Mr. Junkin said that he had ; and Mr. Patterson, taking him to the cellar and opening the door, showed him a horned owl, with the trap and chain hanging from One of his toes, and told him that he had found the bird in his barn, looking longineg at a turkey, the previous Friday night. Mr. Junkin released the owl, from the trap, took him home and offered him the remains of the hen, which he greedin ate; and on Saturday last, when we heard of his capture, he was apparently in good health and spirits, and not at all lame from lugging around his heavy load of iron for a full fortnight. Two hundred :niners’ families are reported to be starving in East Green- ville, Ohio, a quarter from which help has not hitherto been sought. A speci- ally urgent appeal wiil he issued. “ Remittance men " is the term ap- plied in British Columbia to sons of Englishmen sent there to learn farming. “They go about in knickerbockers, big shoes. cloth caps and eyeglasses. paint- ing things red as long as their remit- tances last. For two weeks before the next cheque arrives they keep quiet, because they have no money for making a noise.” A judgment for heavy damages has just been given in a case where a little girl contracted a cold resulting in death, on account of the seat which she oc- cupied at school being exposed to a draught. The trustees paid the dam- ages out of their own private purses. As this decision will form a precedent for future cases, it is likely to accomplish more than bushels of reports from H Inspectors.

LINDSAY. “a Real y Good Cup of Tea. 1 Is not only comforting and agreeable, but it is also very beneficial to onc's health ; but for years past Canada has been noted for the poor class of teas used, which have a bad effect upon the nerves. , During the past few years. in fact, since " Salada " Ceylon tea has been introduced, Canadians have shown their appreciation of fine tens. It has been been admitted by eminent physicians that no tea is so free from harmful qualities as Ceylon tea. and no Ceylon teas are so beneficial. as well as delight- ful, as “Salada.” which is sold in lead packets, thereby preserving all the delightful fragrance that tea has on the estate. “Salado.” tea can be ob- tained in Fenclon Falls only at W.
