Mrs. W. H. Crawford and daughter, Belen. of Snrni.t, visited the former's •ister, Mrs. Jos. Blackburn, bust week. The annual nieetiog of the Flesherton Hotel Co. has been calle<l for Friday, March H, as will be seen by a<lvertise- nient elsewhere. Durliitui collected $140 in do;; taxes last year. Couldn't Flesherton pioduce enuuKh from a similar souice to pay interest on the sidewalk debentures ? Wednesday of last wetk was an off mail tUy heio. The noon train »;is can- celled owing to the storm and the 9 ji. m. train did not arrive until 2 a. lu. next day. Enoch Warden, tor the past five years on the section gaog between Waldemar and Fraxt Junction, is iimw residing a; Priceville, whore he lias been appointed st.x!tion btss, Mr. Lou Fisher was suddenly called to the death bed of his mother at Bury, Quebec, last week. Mrs. Fisher lived only two hours after his arrival. She wa» 78 years of age. During the series of hockey matches between the High School and town teams the former was iuvarinbly the winner. The question naturally arises : Do they teach hockey, too, at the Academy ? Mr. A. 1{. Latter, representing the Toronto Star, was in town on Saturday and did considentblo busiiiestt for his popular paper. Ua has made arraugo- mvnts with B.J.

Tucker, .sou of Mr. W. .\. Tucker of this place, with pneumoniii in Toronto. His mother went down on Friday to assist in nursing him. R. J. was up here only two weeks «^o. The fourth paragraph of "Farmer's" letter re a market, published la.<t week, lost its meaning through an unfortunate omission. It should have read: "Now, the nature of such a market would mean the bringing of the producer and eon.suin- er closer together and cutting out the middlemen with their profits." After the cold and stormy weather of February it was a welcome change to wanner and more Kpriiigtiko weather this week. A thaw on Saturday and Sunday reduced the volume of snow but had a rather bad effect ou the roads. For the past few days the thermometer has baen slightly ab<.ive freezing, and the wood pilea have hud a i-espiie. The editor of this ^utper has a small flock of 29 Rhode Island Red hens, whose laying record for thi.s winter may be of interest to our reailers. They began lay- ing about Dec, 1 last During January there were only 27 hens in the Hock, and these laid 159 egg.*), or 12 dozen and 3. The February record from 29 hens was 327, or 27 dozen and 3 eggsâ€" 31> dozen and a half during the two inouth.s. An .\rctic rxpedition is the latest thing over at Chesley. A couple start out on anowsboes in the evening in sc<irch of the polo, and the rest of the party fol- low, later .m, also on snowshoc-i, and follow the trail to its destin;»tion, which has been kept a profound secret. Pro- visisns including C'xikies are shipped ahead. This form of amusement is said ti.) produce a lot of fun, and would no doubt be popular here if introduced. The writer of this item saw a rather remarkable sight the other day in his hen house. A moude with considerable mousely bravado ventured into the open, when a hen, quick as a ila»h. grabbed Mr. ftluusc by the tail The other hen^ thought they, too, would like to have a little mouse steak, so they' began chasing the biddy who had made the rapture. The mouse hung head dowownnl and stiuealed " to beat the bund " (a very appropriate siuiile, by the way). Occa- sionally the hen would get a .short breath- ing spell and would then pound its victim on the ground, but was forced by ihe ' others to keep luoviuK moat of the time and could not get sufficieit opportunity ! to complete the mouse's destruction. It ' reminded one of a football match. Think- ing to rtnder assistance- the writer took : hold of the hen, but as soon as he did so she let go her bold and mousie got away. This is a plain, unvarnished tule, and is something new in the line of hen experience D d anyone ever before hear of a mouse-catching hen I The hen is a Rhode Island Red and th"s incident . adds another i.iluable characteri.stic to 1 the breed, I With The Churches. ; A movement is oii foot to purchase a new pipe organ for the Flesherton Methodist chuieh. At a boanl meeting on Friday night it was announced that .\.iidrow Carnnuie would give i hnndsonie donation towards the orgnn fund. The I subscription list is now almost complete, there being only a matter of some, sixty I more dollars to secure. Rev. Mr. Lauahland of the Bapti-^t i church was a visitor at the Mfthodist 1 church Sunday evening and was requi- sitioned by the pa.'itor to deliver the iserinpii. Mr. L;tu<.'hland, though taken ^ at a di«advantBge, generously came for- ward and delivered an excellent seiinon. Uuder the direction of the in'erim moderator. Rev. J.A.Matheson of Price- vil'e, the Presbyterian congregations of I TIesherton, Eugenia and Proton Station held a joint meeting in Cbalnier's church here on Monday afternoon to select a I pastor front the candidates heard and I Rev.

Mr. Milligan, who is an unmarried nr.iii in the prime of life, is a forceful, thoughtful and finished preacher and comes highly tecoiume'ided from bis former charge.

Tivo years ago lie resiijned his chars;e near Kingston to take a post graduate course in Edin- burgh and London from where he recent- ly returned to resume pastoral work.

Thomp- son of the Kimbetley branch gave a splendid paper on " Health and Home " in which she spoke of plenty of sunlight, fresh air and exercise. Walking is one exercise very beiie&cial to the he-ilth. Vociland inatrument»l music was tup- plied by Mrs. Myles, Mias Maud Fawcett and Mrs. 'J. H. Walter.

The lodge heie is a strong one and received the district prize last year for adding the largest number of new members. The sports of Grand Valley are experi- menters and believe in the Scripture admonition to '- Prove all things, hold fast to that which is good. ' The Star saya : It is often .said that things go in spasms or spells, either a deluge or drouth, a storm or a calm. This just about tits the sporting or pleasure piivil- enes of Granil Valley. A few years ago 1 everyone played tennis, kaseball, lacrosise, j or drove a fast horse. Then there was a reactiim ai;d the boys look ro playing j marbles, spining tofs <r playing euchre. List summer bowling on the green occupied the attention of nearly every- one, while ihe winter evenings have been most enthusiastically engaged in skating or curling m one of the best rinks in the province. Just to add a surfeit of the good things, a stranger was in town this week investmating the prospects for openins up a bowling alley, while a local spt-rt ulks about putting in a billiard and pool table.
