Automobilés do kick up an awful dust. The people in the city suffer' a great deal from it, but there is per- Laps no plrce where the nuisance is feit' more than in the village of Portsmouth. Automobiles tear through the place at a terrific rate --at least a great many of them do, ard the dust which follows is some- thing fierce. The matter issnow before the yil- | lage council, as it is felt that soris-] thing will have to be done to ramecy" the evil. The question of using oil | on it is under consideration. Infor- mation is being secured, and it may be that this system of putting down the dust will be put into forve. IT the oil is not sécured, the old re- liable "water-waggon," will have to be put into service. While the automobiles are the big- gest offenders, they do not by any means make all the dust. Vehicles of all sorts are also to blame. The residents of the village are in hopes that the council will take action this summer, ard not have them suffer s0 much from the dust. "A good heavy rain would do a lot of good," raid a""resident of Parts- mouth to the Whig on Friday after- noon, when the weather man was in- clined to send along a few showers . R. J. CRAIG CALLED.

H. Guiton. Mrs, Manhard had, prévious to her marriage a little yver a year ago, been one of the most yopular of the younger set in Co bourg, and her sudden death caused quite a gloom amongst her large number of friends here.

There are many people with good characters but pretty poor reputa- tions. - They ave careless about their good name. They are in the habit of saying: "Oh, well, so long as I know I am all righ, it does not matter." But it"does matter, Every pér- son ought to be anxious to not only be right, bit to have the world know le is right. We owe thut mth to our influence. We owe that much to our families, to the good people with whom we are associated. "People are 'always any way. They will find out after awhile that I'am not doing wrong," WYySs one, Yes, but what of your influence while you are being tound out? You put yourself in questionable positions, even when your motives are good, and it may take the people a good while to digeover that you are not guilty. "There are a dozen things one may do conscientiously, in a way or at a time that will appear, to a casual observer, as though he were doing wrong. True, time will tell, but the world has not time to come around and take a person's affidavit that his in- {éntions were good; it has not. even time to give him a chance to explain his motives. It gives a hasty glance, and, if it sees him in the black-sheep pen, it goes on and classes him with the black sheep. /é know this is not right. We know people should not form judg- ments hastily, should not be so dis- t#ustful; yet we know that they do. For those who are anxious that tlieir influence count for good, there is a very clear admonition in our Treasure Book: "Abstain from all anpearance of evil." Hard to do, you say? Certainly. Most things worth doing are hard to do. Yet it pays. | It pays in the added Influencq it gives our lives.
