"It is always hard to get houseâ€" keepers to start to buy pineapples for canning,"‘‘ Mr. W. Nicholson told The Advance this week. ‘"It is one of the fruits they seem to hold back about,"‘‘ he added. ‘*and the result is that sometimes they wait too long and miss altogether this very desirable and delicious fruit.‘‘ Mr. Nicholson says that the price is now as low as it will be, and so the present seems to be a good time to buy pineapples for canning.

Mr. T. J. MceCamm returned last week from Toronto. where he had been taking his final eourse in pharâ€" macy. He was successful in his exâ€" aminations, and is new back again in his place at F. M. Burke‘s Drug Store, <where he« has always jbeen popular and officient. ) At the present time both motorists and pedestrians are complaining aâ€" bout the menace of the boys on biâ€" ecycles. WThe pedestrian feels that the riding of bicycles on the sidewalks is a menace to the limbs and life of every person using the walks. The sidewalks is very evidently no place for the boy on a bicycle, and the law is quite right in stopping the use of the walks For bicyeling: For ‘the safety of the public this is one of the laws that needs enforeement. Motorists claim, on the other hand. that the boy on a bicycle on the road is not only a danger to himself but also to the general public and the motorist in particular. This is espeâ€" cially true at night. It seems a pity that it should be necessary to restrict the use of bicycles on the roads, but it is hard to see how the wheels can be permitted to continue to use the roads, unless a great deal more>of common sense and carefulness is shown. Unless there is some sort of a change the use of bicycles on the road is going to mean further tragedy. Parents should make a note of this. It is no idle thing to say that the lives of their children are endangered by present practices in regard to bicyeling on the roads. Boys have a habit of suddenly shootâ€" ing by an automobile without any warning, and without real knowledge of what may be ahead, [They perâ€" sist in riding in front of moving autos, in turning corners recklessly and in other practices that menace the safety of themselves and others. The failure of most of the bicycles . to carry lights at night is also a fruitâ€" tul source of danger. Boys also have recently acquired the prenicious hapit of. running back and forth on their wheels in the sections where motor traffic is the heaviest. Everybody is anxious to give the boys, a chance, but few are content to sit back and let that chanee be only a chancee to injure themselves or others. Parents should take up the whole question of boys on heyceles on the roads of toâ€" day, and see that everything is done to make everything as safe as posâ€" sible for the boys and for others. Unless something is done to change the present undesirable conditions, tragedy will inevitably result. Only luck has avoided sueh tragedy so far. BICYCLE RIDING A MENACE ON THE ROADS THESE DAYS ‘*‘Last Saturday night the store of Mr. Wismer and the store and shop of Mr. R,. W. Wood were broken into and cash and liquor taken away from the former and cash from the latter. Entrance was made into the Wismer store by breaking the glass in the westâ€"end cellar window, and then raising the iron bars. This enabled the burglars to enter the cellar. They then raised a trapâ€"door and entered the store. Near this trapâ€"door is a box in which liquor is kept. _ They must have known what the box conâ€" tained, because they smashed it open and took away perhaps ten bottles of liquor, and about twenty dollars which were in two tills. One of these tills was torn from the counter, and carâ€" ried to the rear and broken open. It appears that this was all they could carry, so they came back a second time evidently for a large bottle of alcohol; but Mr. J. A. Miller, who lives above the store, hearing the noise had got up and went to a back window. Seeing the parties coming back he shouted, and they ran away. The same night burglars raised a window at the rear of Wood‘s Beauty Parlours, entered the premises, and then took about ten dollars from the cash box. We believe this is the fourth time that Mr. Wismer‘s store has been burglarized, and Mr. Wood, also, had twenty dollars taken from his eash box by burglars on a previous occeasion. The burglars will be anxiâ€" ous to see The Speaker this week; and let us say to them that if they have no respect for themselves, they should at least have some respect for their parents. No person, old or young, can committ such acts and "‘get away with it.‘‘ They may not be found out even though cireumstanâ€" tial evidence may be strong against them ; but they can never get away from their conscience, and sooner or later they will be very sorry for their misdoings.*‘ NEW LISKEARD BUSINESS PLACES BURGLARIZED. In the past few weeks there have been several small burglaries and petâ€" ty thefts in Timmins, though nothing of any particular moment has been stolen and no serious damage done. However, the petty thefts are irritaâ€" ting and annoying. _ If misery does love company, as the old saying sugâ€" zests, then there will be particular interest in the following paragraph from the last issue of The New Lisâ€" keard Speaker :â€" Last week for the second time within two months death entered the home of Mr. and Mrs. Robert, Mcâ€" Naught, â€" Haileybury, when â€" their daughter, Arva, aged two years, sucâ€" cumbed to pneumonia. A young son of the family died recently. INTERESTING ADDKESSES ON THE BRITISH STRIKE Miss Beekie Buhay, of Montreal, a noted speaker on labour questions, addressed aâ€"meeting here in the New Empire Theatre on Wednesday evenâ€" ing last, her topic being the general strike in Britaim Miss Buhay paid special attention to the hours, wages and conditions of the British eval On Sunday evening at the Maple Leat miners and took up the labour situaâ€" tion in Britain from thkeir viewpoint. Theatre, Schmacher, Miss Buhay adâ€" dressed another gathering on the same subject. The meetings were well attended and very interesting. A. Brazeau Son Plumbing, Heating and Sheet Metal Work. 10 Cedar Street, South EXCLUSIVE DEALERS FOR aqlLOMATI(e WITLLLAM®S **~*~ WORK TO RESUME ON ThE THREE NATIONS§ CLAIMS Reports #gre in cireulation to the effect that thie Three Nations Mine will be reâ€"openied this summer, probâ€" ably in June or July. The Three Nuitions property‘ is held by the Porâ€" cupine Grande Gold Mines, Limited. A correspondent writing to The Sudâ€" bury Star last week says:‘‘The Porâ€" cupine Grande, formerly the property of the Three Nations Mining Comâ€" pany, from which its popular name was derived, consists of sixteen claims in the vicinity of Three Naâ€" tions lake. It was explored prior to its purchase by the Porcupine Grande by a shaft and eross cutting at 100 and 200 feet: from which sufficient ore was taken to rum a small stamp mill. The vein was traceable on the surface for a distance of about 300 feet but was found to be cut off to the southâ€" west by some banded. slates. Later the Coniagas Mines, Limited, did conâ€" siderable exploratory work by means of a series of diamond drill holes loâ€" cated along the keewatinâ€"temiskaâ€" ming contact. It is claimed that very favorable results were obtaimed and an entirely new ore body was diseovâ€" gred, As this ipreported to hawve been intersected for fifteen feet and earâ€" ried $9 ore for that width it is probâ€" able that the object: of the present negctiations is to further explore and develop this territory.. A good. plant is maintained on the property mncludâ€" ing a T5â€"horse power steam hoist, pumps, fiveâ€"drill compressor and mill of 100 tons capaecity.‘"‘" PREDICTS USE OF NORTH LAND COAL NEXT WINTEER FOOTBALL MATCHES FOR THE COMING WEEK OR TWO Toâ€"night (Thursday, May 20th,) Hollinger Recreation Football Club vs. Hollinger. This is expected to be one of the most keenlyâ€"eontested games of the season. Thursday, May 27th, Lancashires vs. Melntyre. All matches start at 6.15 p.m. All the above matches are at the Timmins Athletic grounds. In an address to the Conservative Club at Toronto last week Col. J. A. Currie, M.P.P., declared that citizens of Toronto, in common with those of other parts of the Province, will be burning coal from Northern Ontario this coming winter, instead of the anthracite coal from the United States or the Western coal from Alberta. Col. Currie emphasized the fact that within the past few weeks geologists had greatly changed their opinions reâ€" garding the existence of coal in this North. Previously they had held to the opinion that coal was not found here. Now, their whole question was whether the coal they admitted‘ did exist in this North was here in sutâ€" ficiently large quantities to make mining it a profitable commercial enâ€" terprise. Col. Currie thought there was coal enough in the North Land to assure some good coal mines. The prospectors, at any event, are very bright along this line, and the chances seem to be that the North Land, which has done so much to steady tario in recent years through its gold and silver mines is now going to asâ€" sure further prosperity through its coal deposits in the far north, The following are the> matches scheduled in the Poreupine Football League for the next week or SCO) i _ Tuesday, May 25th, Cornish Oreâ€" andâ€"All vs. Town A.
