Imo. â€"MRS. U. H. WRIGHT I P'leshei'ton , Orangevillc's "Hugger" Oriingoville'a "Jask-the-Hugijer" was SHfely landed Saturday niKht. For some time a number of girls and women have complained that a "Jack the- Hugger" has frighten-id them while they ncre walking along the streets at night. The "Hugger" went about his task in a very busincs like inannoi and did not make very much fuss abimt It. He generally hid on a lawn until a girl came along and then he would throw his arms around her and, if possible give her a kiss. In most cases he wa« satisfied with a hug and he would make ofl' before hLs victim could identify him. But, like the pitcher that went to the well once too often. "Jack-the Hugger" tried to hui; one time too many and as a result he will have to hunt for another jobâ€" and jobs are few and far between now-a-days. Mr. Hugaer must have made liii: preparations for a land oftice business on Saturday night, hue before he could secure many hugs he was put out of busineas. The scene of his operations on Satuday night was on Mill street. He opened up his oftice on the lawn of Alfred Leflar just south of the old skat- ing rink. Mr. Leflar has been away all summer and the bouse i» in darkness. K young lady came along alxiut 9 o'clock and Mr. Hugizer jumped in front of her and attempted to embrace her. But he forgot that s'lme of our girls dp not believe iu hysterics. Biff ! and Mr. Mr. Thomas X. Scott, younaiest son of Tiwuship Clerk Thomas Scott, has enlist- ed with the 48th Highlanders, and is now 111 Toronto with the regiment. Thw younu mall has been anxious to do his "liii" but it was not couvciiient for him to get away until the present. He is a splendid type of young manhood and wil make a line soldier. â€" Oulletin. . Walkerton planned to ra-se $;iOO0 by subscription to the Trafalgar Day Fund but reached only the $2,1')0 mark. At a meeting of the committees at night, two of the councillors it waB found did not contribute. Oneaatistactorily explaining his reason, but the other, John Dougla", whom the meeting believed able to con- tribute,gave no explanation of his action. A resolution was p.i88ed requesting him to resign his seat at the Council Board. On being interviewed, Mr. Douglai re- fused to retign, claiming he acted in his c kpaci'y ai a private citizen, none had a right lo ciiiic'ze his action and he was the keeper of his own conscience. â€" Re- vie w^. On Saturday last Sam Wilson was tried on a charge of being drunk in Durham a couple of week.s ago, anl Magistrites Laidlaw and i'oung considered the evidence strong enough to make a convic- tion. \ few weeks ago, the same young man was before the aaine magistrates and was t ixed 9-0 and costs, with a promise that next time ho wai found guilty of a similar otl'ence the full penalty would be imposed. Accordingly, the fine was fixed at f.'iO, to wlii;h the court costs were WHAT 0.\NADA LACKS. Hugger got one on the nose that made added, making the total nearly ^iO. In addition, there wae the cost of a lawyer him aee stars. Just then another woman came along and the Hugger hiked uown tlie street. The women cro sed the load and when they arrived at the home of the tirst one they stood talkinii. Mr. Huggei's nerve and curiosity got the better of his good sense and he made a detour and without rhyme or reason butted int i the conversati.in. The man of the hou'e ariived on the scene at the psychological moment and the Hugger took to bis heeU and made olfts fa-jt as his legs would carry him. But tho pursuer gained slowly at first, but surely, and fUe Hugger failed to clear the first hurdle, which was the C. P. R, fence at the rear of the Silvation Army hall. As Mr. Hugger hung over the lop mil a powerful hand grabbed h'Ui t'y tho seat of the pants and deftly pulled him back again. After his ideas had been ihaken up a 1 f.lo ho was brouitht back to the house and given a straight talk about the seriousness of his conduct and how he left liimaelf liable t<i \ term it prison. He wa.s allowed to go homo afier prom- isiu" not to otlVnd in the future. â€" Sun, Honor Rolls Ropoit of primary division Kiniberley public school for October : Jr .'i Cecil b'awcett, Klda liiwrjnce, Riyinoiid Statl'ord, Viola I''awiett.

A Renmrkable Corps. Perhaps the most remarkable corps training in Canada just now is the Fourth Brigade of FieM Artillery en- camiied at Torontc and Guelph. They were selected in the first place on the score of their high stand- ard ot education. They are men who are more than ordinarily smart, men- tally. Over ten per cent, of them are University g^raduates, and over twen- ty per cent, are college men. There is a large number of professional men among them. One corporal is an ex- member of the Vnlted States Con- gress and a graduate of three uni- versities. In the ranks of one battery there are tbn.e ordained clergymen. There are several college professors and demonstrators, engineers and mechanics of all Uinds. There is noth- ing in the n:atter of technical skill that the Fouitii Brigade cannot do. Then in its ranks are a number of men who have been In the royal navy. All of the twelve men who H^an the Umber guns are ex-navy men â€" •Ihe limber gunner is real'y the caretaker of the machine, as It were â€" and all are excellent men, reliable, and careful mechanics. Next the men are selected for their good moral character. "We have no time," remarked Lt.-Col. Brown, the commander of the brigade, "to both- er with men of indifferent character. Artillery work is so technical that It is only men of the higher type who have sufficient assiduity to master it." Thirdly, physical fitness is look- ed for; and lastly, some special kind of fitness in the applicant. Who Said noota? None of his fellovz-offlcers are men- tioning the subject of "boots" to Lieut. Chas. Porterlield of the Eaton Motor ^lachine Gun Battery these days, and there Is a very good rea- son for the omission, ilaving heard il i;rcat deal about the qualities, good and bad, of tho Canadian military footwear, Lieut. Porterlield decided to import a pair of high boots from Knpland. lie sent $25 to pay for the boots, but when they were delivered ho bad to give $17 for duty and $10 for express and other details, making a total of $5 2 for tho one pair. Ho intends to wear them out as quickly 1:8 possible. She Could Not Make 1,000 Complete Shells a Week. Much abusr is being banded out to the British Government, to the Cana- dian Government, to General Ber- tram's Shell Committee, and to tb« ublduitous D. A. Thomas because Canada did not get more of the shell orders placed on this continent by the Allies, says "Chemist" writing in The Canadian Courier. It is interesting to note that these charges are an- swered by arguments which reveal not only our limited ability to help in this crisis, but our previous unpre- paredness in case ot a war in which we might have to fight alone. The truth is simple and clear that Canada would have had more orders for shells if this country had been further advanced in chemistry. There was a shortage of picric acid and toloul. There was no demand foi these substances in Canada, and nat- urally nO manufacturers had erected a two million dollar factory to make them. Yet these substances were ab- solutely essential to the making ot shells, as shall now be explained. Before picric acid was adapted in 1886, all explcsives for military pur- poses were gun cotton and nitro-gly- cerine. In 1901 the aromatic nitro- compounds were discovered. Gun cotton was discarded a« a shell filler because of premature ex- plosions. It is still used in "under water" explosives because, unlike gunpowder, dynamite, and picric acid, it will explode even when wet. Nitro-glycerine cannot be tran«- por>.a pure, and even when mixed with infusorial earth, is affected by frost. Picric acid Is made from phenol or carbolic acid. Phenol Is treated with sulphuric acid and later with nltrie acid. This gives picric acid or trin- itiphenol. Picric acid attacks metals, and the projectile into which it it introduced must be varnished inside'. It is soluble in water, and, therefore, cannot be used In mines or torpedoes. It can t>e used only in small shells. In large guns the pressure at firing is so great tUut the picric acid ex- plodes prematurely. Consequently a new explosive had to be found for big shells. This was discovered in the hydro- cart>on toloul. It is treated as phenol was, with nitric acid, and trinltrotol- oul results. Toloul Is made from coal, a ton of coal giving up a gal- lon of toloul. One hundred pounds of trinltrotoloul is used in every 750- Ib. shell. Phenol plus nitric acid equals trin- itphenol or picric acid. This brief description of shell ex- plosives shows what the ammunition worker is "up against." He must get picric acid or trinltrotoloul in addi- tion to fulminating mercury to com- plete his shell. When war broke out these substances were not made in Canada except In insignificant quan- tities. The British Government could not get them, either. A charcoal manufacturer in a neighbouring State is said to be building a plant for the British Government for the making of picric acid. This plant will cost about two million dollars and will' supply a considerable quantity. No doubt there are other sources l>eing created which the Governments con- cerned are not divulging. Great Britain's failure to get shells was as much due to a shortage of pic- ric acid and trinltrotoloul as to any- thing else. Canada's Inability to get shell orders was largely duo to tho same cause. We could not supply the completed shell. How serious this situation was and is may be realized if we consider the possibility of an nnthinkable attack from the United States. At the pre- sent moment Canada could not make a thousand complete artillery shells a week. This Is our state of unprc- paredness. Of course, it doesn't mat- ter, l>ecause Britannia still rules the waves. But without Britain's help we would last as a natloti at war ap- proximately a lorliiight. Qupbee's Tobacco ("nip.
