A number of the Presbyterian con gregation assembled at the Manse on Saturday night and presented Miss Jessie Oldham with a beautiful clock as a token of the esteem in which she is held. Miss OQidham leaves this week for Seaforth. Standard. Persistent Regularity. "This must be a splendid medicine, it is advertised so much." _ It was a woman who made the re. mark to a druggist who sold her a package of corn plaster. A little analysis_of this particular and apparently trivial incident reveals interesting facts. The plaster had in realicy been advertised very little. A sixâ€"inch advertisement once a week in one newspaper was the extent of publicity given it. This advertiseâ€" ing, however, had been kept up reguâ€" larly for more than a year. As regâ€" ularly as the Monday issue of that newspaper appeared the sixâ€"inch ad was there in neat display and new wording. Regularity won recognition for this remedy. There were no big spacesâ€"no plunging; only one small stroke once each week. The expense was small, the risk slight, but results now pay the bills and leave a comfortâ€" able profit besides. wl aul 0 00 0 007 It is doubtful if any one principle of advertising policy is so often proved true as the wonderful power of perâ€" sistent regularity.â€"Starling H.

Arm strong, resulting in the almost total destruction of the building and most of the contents. The family was preâ€" paring to retire for the night, Mr. Armstrong and a couple of the chilâ€" dren being upstairs when a lamp was overturned on the stairway, the oil taking fire and igniting the carpet and woodwork so rapidly that escape in that direction was cut off. Mr. Armstrong dropped the baby from the window into the arms of a neigh bor, and escaped down the ladder with the other one. The firemen did their best, but it was a difficalt job to get the fire under control. The buildâ€" ing was owned by Wm. Hearl, and was insured, the sight of the side walks with tobacco juice at times makes it very unpleasant for the ladies to pass. â€" Another nuisance we might mention just here, young men prouling around at ali hours of the night, making all sorts of noises and ldiaturbing the peace. _ The question is asked, why do not our magistrates or constables take action, and the reply comes what is everybody‘s business is no body‘s business. _ It is the duty of our town officers to take action for the proâ€" tec#ion and comfort of our citizens, The \duty may not be very ‘agreeable but ‘honors sometimes go hand in hand with | disagreeable diuties.

The Beamsville byâ€"laws, the cows, the bicyole, the furious driving and all the public ones are almost scrupulously observed in Beamsville, prosecutions being very rare indeed.

Toronto, April 30.â€"Dr. Bryce, proâ€" vincial health officer, returned from Lakefield, Peterboro county, where a number of cases of smallâ€"pox are reâ€" ported, in a very pessimistic mood. With the opening of the Panâ€"American exhibition and the big tourist travel of the summer he seems to think many cases will occur similar to that in this city where six persons have taken the disease, one with fatal results, from a visitor from Cleveland. The Lakefield outbreak brings the total number in Ontario during the past four months to about 500. § Several Port Dalbousians have reâ€" ceived by mail a certificate of memberâ€" ship in the Liars‘ Club, also a license to lie.

J. Archer, of 97 Brunswick avenue, an old man paraâ€" lyzed on one side, who was terribly burned on Saturday night in a fire which is believed to have originated in a spark from his pipe which set fire to his chair and burned him terribly about the head before he succeeded in rolling from the chair to the ground where he was found by his grandâ€"child. The house took fire but little damage was done. â€"When you see generation after generation of the same family buying their clothing from the same firm, you would naturally conclude that the firm from whom they bought must have the absolute confidence of these people.
