This is in ac- cordance with the law of compensa- tion as sugar is much too scarce and dear for preserving in any large quan- tity. Meat prices are to continue high and grain prices are slated for an advance. Great~production in the- ory works out to decrease produc- tion in actuality, owing. to the short- age of labor on the farm. Not until the pinch comes will producion re- ceive the stimulus it needs, The authorities of Listowel are now beginning to get after the band of youthful burgulai who have been terrorizing the merehants of that town by their weekly depredations and looting of stores.

We learn authoritively from of- ficials of the Evangelical Church that there is nothing in the wild rumors that have been circulated to the ef-. fects that the' church here would like- ly be closed. The matter was discuss- ed at a meeting in Walkerton a couple of months ago but no ac- tion was taken and no vote on the subject whatsoever was taken at that or any othér time. The matter was not referred to the Evangelical Con- ference which met recently and was not discussed in any shape or form. at the Conference. The local church is going ahead cheerfully with» its work regardless of the unfounded stories which are persistently circu- lated, by one or two individuals.-- Walkerton Telescope.

Mrs. Dahms was en- gaged in heating some varnish on a coal oil stove when it caught fire. In removing it her hands were being burned and she called Laura. The lit- tle' girl came with such rapidity that she ran into her mother and her dress caught fire, The mother in her excite- ment did not notice it and Laura rac- ed from the house with the flames towering over her head across to J. W. Barr's. Mr. Barr with some dif- ficulty caugh her and extinguished the flames en her clothing dropped off. She had undoubtedly. inhaled the flames which proved fatal and she was very severely burned on the body. The mother and two little sisters survive, who have the most sincere sympathy of the community in their very severe affliction. Mrs. Dahms is almost heart broken over the affliction.

Ernst in goal stopped two penalty kieks. The only goal scored was on a rebound from a penalty kick by Tavistock. This puts | Milverton out of the runing for the Junior silverware but they are young and will give a better acocunt of etheir work next year. This team won the juvenile cup last summer and it is no discredit to lose it to a junior team. 4 eb & & THE GAME AT STRATFORD _.On Friday night the green and white tigers invaded the Stratford of that place to a score of 1-1. The game was evenly contested but the rough field prevented good play, Re- feree MacGuire, of London, handled the whistle and kept the game clean.

The game was fast from start to finish but the fine combination of the green and white forwards proved too much for the Hampstead defence, but the good work of Yost in goal kept the score down. He also stopped a pen- alty kick in the first half. Stanley Ford, of Atwood, refereed the game in his usual efficient manner. * MRS, JOSEPH LAMBERT After an illness extending over some years from an internal cancer, Sarah Smith, beloved wife of Mr. Jos: Lambert, of Milverton, pased away at her home in Milverton on Sunday, June 6th.

Invoice or sales slip showing the price at which the article is sold, exclusive of tax, and as a separate item the amount of luxury tax there- on shall at the time of sale be deliv- ered by the vendor to the purchaser. "2. The vendor shall at the time of sale collect from the purchaser the a- mount of luxury tax shown on the sales slip.' No merchant is, author- ized to advertise or announce that he is paying the tax for the purchaser, as in point of fact he is required to col- lect the tax from the customer."
