The name ot the young iady, who gives her age as 23, and the town In Ontario are not divulged by His Worship. She is not particular whe. ther the prospective groom is dark, fair, handsome or otherwise, but she does insist he must be a rancher, six-foot tall and a Canadian. The mayor has promised to do his at. most. Somewhere in Ontario . young lady is pining to marry a rancher from Alberta’s foothills country and Mayor J. Corruwman, of Lethbridge, Nier. ta, has been selected for the role ot marriage broker.

CHICK SPEEDS UP ON EGG PRODUCTION. London.--Living up to the condi- tions and demands of the speedy and productive modern world, the modern chicken can teach its grandmother how to lay eggs. at least feels responsible for the children but not for her. Yer-she doesn't know exactly why, but she does feel the heat. No one notices mother. thing but bread and butter and his sister hasn't done much better. Their father has eaten a big meal. No one notices that Mrs. Blank hasn't touched a bite but only sip- ped her coffee. She doesn't like ice cream. A pint would have been plenty. And the laundry man to put off again, And the meal, as usual, wrong in Jim's eyes. He worries, or MOTHER IGNORED . "Goody.'" shouts Homer, pushing back his plate.

It's, such a trivial matter to get adjusted, and it only takes a couple of minutes to fix. Anybody drivmg deliberately at night with one head- light is just taking a mean advantage of other people, and when the dead headlight is on the left hand side, he is Manger to everybody else on the roa . After my narrow escape I knew exactly what had happened. The poor victim of the accident had thought it was another motor cycle coming towards him, and he had not been as lucky as I had in getting out of the way. The driver got caught all right and he deserved all he got. If that motor cyclist sues him for damages, I'll be giving evidence for him, believe me. Sometimes, I think it is no use be- ing decent with people. He had no intention of getting his light fixed, because next morning I learned that he'd run down a motor cyclist some twenty miles further on.
