Not satisfied with the space they had contracted for, they have voluntarâ€" ily almost doubled the space as they are fully alive to the value of advertisâ€" ing in a widely circulated newspaper. Their advts. are always read and actâ€" ed upon. See the immense bargains they are offering before their annual stocktaking July 1st. â€"A newspaper in a neighboring town spoke of two men of different parties meeting on the same platform, as "the lion and the lamb lying down together." And the party spoken of as the lamb says he has been belittled and stops his paper. It is another illustration of the old saying that "If an editor does not scratch every reader‘s back just exâ€" actly in the way he wants it scratched" â€"that man gets mad and takes his name «off the lists â€"Among the liss of those who passed the final examinations of the College of Physiciaus and Surgeons of Ontario we find the names of H.

Wilson speaking on "tramps" at St. Thomas, said :â€""Feâ€" male tramps are women whose particuâ€" lar calling in life seems to be to go from door to door, gathering up scanâ€" «dal and depositing it. None of these, of course, were in St. Thomas. He compared them to vultures, who fattenâ€" led on carrion, or people who had a placâ€" ard on * their ear, "trash lefb here." Scandal, like a fire, was easily stamped out when it started, but if not it would doa good deal of mischief. Lastly, he spoke of church tramps who go from one church to another. Each one should, he thought, have a church of whatever _ denomination, which he should call "my church." Those _who tramp in this respect to save paying to any particular church, or to gain custâ€" om in business, received severe conâ€" demnation. The address was very practical axd listened to with attenâ€" ‘tion. _ Notice of changes must be left at this office not later than Saturday noon. _ The copy for changes must be left not late thaoTuesday noon. _ Casual Advertiseâ€" ments accepted up to noon Wednesday of each week.

Kaufman‘s blacksmith shop on Friâ€" day afternoon last. The alarm was given and the hose of the Waterloo Woollen Co. was playing upon the flames in a few minutes. The fire company was also on hand in a short time and the flames were soon extingâ€" uished. _ No great amount of damage was done.

Entrance was effected by boring a panel out of the back door and then prying open the inner door. Goods to the amount of about. $50 were taken, including two coats, two vests, and a pair of pauts. â€" The burgâ€" lar is evidently a novice in the art as the entrance was effected by a very clumsy, long and tedious process.

The scheme outâ€" lined in the cireuiar will, we are sure, meet with the approbation of the farming community and we trust that not a few teachers will avail themselâ€" ves of the opportunity of attending this summer course. They will not only be enabled to spend a part of their vacation very pleasantly but will obtaim a great deal of useful informaâ€" tion on agriculture and allied subjects which they will be able to impart to their pupils.
