fine weather to fit their lots for building operations which will commence any time now it is on record that when the great missionary dr carey was a young lad that he rell from a tree while climbing and broke his leg the first thing he lid when he had recovered the use of his limb was to climb thai tree again thar spirit is not dead as was evidenced by a circumstance that happened to one of the popular local young set a couple of weeks ago when in quest of spring attire and having made the purchase of a new coat oh boy what a creation she pro- 1 were n obtain dii expected him instead the traveller came along on the first day of april with all bis worldij possessions loaded on a truck but lo the house was occupied by fred betz and his family who moved in just that day mr rusnell endeav oured to locate another suitable place for the man on the street but just- then houses were as scarce as corners on a billiard ball and good houses witli conveniences were not available the wouldbe tenant finally left town and re covered bis tracks back to wood- bridge where he hoped to meet with better success than in this busy place where homes to rent able on all fools day ceeded to another

yoarnothlng of the sort answered the unfortunate one i at onco went back and ordered an other coat she climber her tree the sequel is that about ten days later the lightfingered gentry was picked up in a down town store in toronto and on a search being made of her room there just as it had been packed when she bought it was the stolen coat lest some of our readers might consume much unnecessary
