And is not a young man, almost his next door neighbor, suffering for the past two months from his heart lowered two inches from its place, said by Dr. Macdonald to have been caused by being swung by the plow from the side of one of those hills into the chasm beneath. We are surprised that they don’t all become down- hearted from the experiences they have. It would make one sick to see the way that creature blusters up over hearing the truth. He must surely either bea very young man or else had tempered. Mr. Joe Lennox, Jr.. spent last week helping his father and brothers. of Glascott. with their seeding.

Jack O’Neil, of the 4th con . visited at J. P. Fallaise’s, Gambol, on Satur- day, the 9th inst. Come again Jack. The school north of us, known as Ritchie’s section, is going to vary this summer from its usual quietness by holding other meetings. A Sun- day School has been started with a good staff of teachers and about sev- enty pupils, and a farmer’s associa- tion is soon to be inaugurated. The latter is for the purpose of keeping the country from going to the dogs and the former to keep the children from going to the devil. Anyone who seeks success findsi adversity in his path. If he is tof win he IUUSL bring to his aid determ- ination and unflagging courage. These will not let him fall. They will urge him to brave resistance and force him to fight like a tiger. We must strike a balance between those lost, because they are too timid and frail to fight to afinish. and those saved, who are brave, strong and unconquerable and have not won their battles with adversity, but have brought from the fight stout hearts and strong arms lit to challenge any emergency of daring advance. The timid and weak that are lost can well he apared; the brave who win the fight are saved for great and noble l things. and so adversity may become ! our mightiest best friend at last. Mr. J as Vessie was up to Priceville last week with a present of a number of bee hives for his brother in law, Mr. Joe Ausom. who is anxious to get started into the industry, but up to now has found it a failure. The new survev people are trying to get up a. picnic at the lake on the 25th, and may have some success. al- thought the majority will go to the sports in Durham. Mr. James Crittenden, of Manitoba, is down visiting friends here at pres- ent. He was one of our pioneer settlers and the most widely known of them. He will be well remember- ed by many. Mr. Joe Sharp had shipped to him last week a pig of a few weeks old from the Gold Medal herd of Berk- shires of Mr. Richard Snell, of Snell grove, Ont. It makes a good addl- tion to his stock of entire animals. The Hillis family were so unfor- tunate as to lose a good mate and one which they very much needed.

Corner Concerns. ‘ o.p-~ David Davis, United States Senator of Illinois, Speaking of what a news- paper does for a community, made an address that remains ever green in the memories of newspaper men. He said : ” Every year every local pa- per gives from 500 to 5000 free lines for the benefit of the community in which it is located. No other agency can or will do this. The editor in prOportion to his means does more than any other man, and in all fair- ness. man with man, he ought to be supportedwnot because you happen to like him, or admire his writing, but because a local paper is the best investment a community can make. It may not be crowded with great thoughts but financially it is of more benefit than both preacher and teach- er. Today editors do more work for less pay than any other men on earth. Patronise your home paper. not as a charity, but as an investment. \Ve clip the following from the Prescott Journal: Mr. A. A. Jordan, principal of the public school, has sent in his resignation to the school board. to take effect with the end of the present term. He has been ap- pointed head of the public schools at Port How at a salary of $1,100 to commenceâ€"something better than ho is receiving here. His duties as teacher will be limited to the model term; during the remainder of the year they will be supervisory This is an instance in which the position seeks the man. as Mr. Jordan was asked to accept it on the recommenda- tion of Model School Inspector Thomp son. We congratulate Mr. Jordan. but hope that eflorts to induce him to withdraw his resignation may not be without success as he is one of our best citizen:~ as well as ainost eificient teacher.â€".\leaford Mirror.

All druggiats _-_,, H... woâ€" --.-‘ The birds at Hanover, and eSpecial- ly the robins, seem tamer and more familiar than in some other places, says the Post. This. we are told, 15 due to the fact that they are treated as friends by the boys of the town. It is pleasing to make a note of this. Every living creature is an object of beauty and interest. rightly viewed. Neither bird, nor beast. nor insect should be wantonly destroyed. Even the despised and often abused toad has his good points. He is the gar- dener’s best assistant. making war on many destructive pests He has a good ear for music. a fact which may easily be tested. There is far more fun studying animals, in not- ing their peculiarities and habits and in photographing them or drawing ithem than in killing them. Fifteen young ladies, and all of good quality. ready for market, and four bachelors, the oldest lives some- where about our corner. Miss Prudence Rielly, of Saugeen Valley, visited Normanby friends lately. their 'friend ? No, no, in headstrong manner they set out, And headlong will they fall at last, n no doubt. It’s too bad to see grown up young men taken aside and led by the devil indulging so strongly in that which is degrading him so badly. The event which took place lately at our corner proved it to be so. It is a great blessing bestowed upon us that from Saugeen Valley to Scotchtown, a distance of four miles, that such are not living within that distance. Shame, shame. on any young man or men that would or even come in range of his or their thoughts ever to think of doing such a low degraded act. Shame. again, although you were trying to take advantage of the silent hour and thinking at the same time “ Oh no human eye is watching.” Yes. the human eye was watching and saw all that passed. We knew who you were and your names too, but we won’t disgrace you Openly al- together this time. Remember if it be repeated we’ll make it known to the public. So be wise and take care. That’s fair warning. A letter from our soldier friend. Mr. Hugh McDonald. dated at Heidel- berg, April :hd, was this week re- ceived by his sister, Miss Jessie Mc- Donald.

Sick at Heidelberg, S. A. 3W5 g; POET. Lettuce is an absolute preventive ‘ of smallpox. No one is in the least danger of catching smallpox who eats . a little lettuce every day. Smallpox . belongs to the scorbutic class of dis- 1 'eases. Sailors at sea. deprived of fresh vegetables. get scurvy. Scurvy is a typical scorbutic disease Small- pox always rages during the winter season. when the poor people are de- prived of fresh vegetable foods. Cel. cry and onions are good for this pur- pose, hut thew is such a long inter- val between tlwir lying gathered and being eaten that Hwy lose most of anti-scorbutic ph-pwiles. Lettuce is 3 served shortly :u'u-r. and possesses? valuable prOpcrtzm which will pre- vent smallpox. It is a thousand times better than vaccination. It has ' ' no liabilities. like vaccination to pro- duce other diseases. \Ve are willing to stake our professional reputation on the broad statement that any one who eats lettuce daily. will not catch : smallpox. whether he be vaccinated or not.-â€"Medical News. i “ But the horse is a mere incident? ‘in the Horse Show. The aflair is Ireally a Woman Show, a fine dress exhibition, and, worse than all, an annual competion in social ostenta tion. wherein those who have the 'largest number of dollars to waste :excel all others. The boxes for the; ishow are sold at auction. and are not : . necessarily bought in either by these T :who best deserve front seats when Toronto society gathers in a public place. These boxes are auctioned ofi zand year after year the prices in- crease, until now men pay the value ' of a workingman’s home for the use a ‘ during three days of a rough board ‘ l box 1n which their wives can sit and . feel socially distinguished. The view ?is no better than that enjoyed by 1 others who sit on seats equally un- ' comfortable and drafty at the price .0! a dollar each. But those who have expensive seats know they are expensive, and know the maple know it. IGlenelg Court of Revision “ When society arrays itself in its? best and goes to a concert or to an art exhibit one can understand it. for there is a fitness in it all; but when society arrays itself in a huge barn like the Armories, in the presence of horses that are scarcely looked at. paying absurd prices for seats, buy- ing prominence at its competitive ' value. the net influence of the thing: is vulgarizing. Music and art should have an attraction for the best people. and fine gowns are in harmony with music and art, but why should wealth . vaunt and flourish itself when people go to inspect horses?” “If you have seen it you must have been struck with the incongruity of it all. The efiect produced is that of horses in a drawing room, or of society throwing itself into promin- ence by using a stable for a back- ground. All sense of fitness is violated. Of course they have a horse show in New York. but no doubt it is as ludicrous as our own. If interest in horse flesh were the reason for the Horse Show there would be common sense in it. If people were interested in horses, if they were attracted there by the animals, and if they dressed as hu- man beings do and should do when they are in company with horses, the show would be a rational thing. ‘.
