The decline in output from April of $265,900 to $1,415,905 was thereâ€" fore due to lower grade handled. By deducting totals for the two main camps from the total for the province, produciion of Howey Gold Mines in northwestermn Ontario is secured. This with firearms. Some fireworks are lit tle less dangerous." "It is noteworthy that the "tannic acid" treatment was first ariplied to the young Toronto victims of the latest Empire Day celebrations. Fireworks become more beautiful and popular from year to year, and no one woulc suggest their abolition. Yet the fact that sixteen little children were seriousâ€" ly burned by fireworks in Toronto alone in the past few weeks is a reminder that dangerous playthings should be handled under supervision and treated with the utmost care. No one would dream of letting small children play this elemental type of human injury. As described in yesterday‘s Glabe, reâ€" presentatives of the Fire Department nave expressed their astonishment at th> results obtained. "The discovery of the "tannic acid" treatment is the culmination of years of painstaking work at the Toronto childâ€"healing institution. Children, of course, are the most numerous sufferers from burns. The active child of any homeâ€"no matter how carefully guarded or well trainedâ€"is liable to meet with such injuries, in greater or less serious degree. All too frequently death has been the result. Ugly scars are not the least serious consequence of an accident which may occur in any household. The new treatment is said both to reâ€" duce the physical shock and to minimâ€" ize the danger of disfigurement. "Toronto has added materially to its high reputation as a centre of leaderâ€" ship in medical research by the disâ€" covery of the new "tannic acid" treatâ€" ment of burns. The staff surgeons of the Hospital for Sick Children have coâ€" operated to evolve what is described as an outstanding advance in dealing with Gold Production in May in the Province production in the province for the month of May has been issued by th« Ontario Depurtment of Mines.

(From The Cochrane Post) The Northern Tribune last week had ‘he following paragraph:â€""An Ottawa despatch conveys the interesting inforâ€" mation tm Hon. W. A.

We ao not doubs} for one minute that the editor of our contemporary has the best intsrests of the North at heart, but we do think he has the wrong idea this time. What the North needs right now is not more settlers, particularly of the type referred to in the above paraâ€" graph, who, being unemployed, would come here with lit@le or no capital, and would therefore, straightway become charges of the Government or the comâ€" munities in which they settled. What is most needed at the present time is assistance for those who are already The regular meeting this week of the AY.P.A. took the form of a softball match on the cyanide, the AYP.A. having previously challenged the Y.P.S. of the United Church to a game. year to have a general sports day on August 3rd (Civic holiday) at the athleâ€" tic grounds, the Week of Wonders at the skating rink to commence that evening. The weather was most favourable and a goodly number of enthusiastic spectaâ€" tors, representative of both churches, were present. The Rev. R. S. Cushing and Geo. Lake acted as umpires. After the match the teams proceeded to the Anglican Church hall where the president of the A.Y.P.A., S. G. Fowler, had charge of the entertainment which took the form of several unusual and enterrirising games during which the noise and excitement rivalled that of the ball game. Announcement is made this week of an event which the general public has been anticipating, namely, the Canadian Legion Sports Day and Week of Wonders. It has been decided this A. Y. P. A.

The game was very close one, endâ€" ing in a score of 1513 for the A.Y.P.A. after plenty of excitement and fun. The Rev. Bruce Millar, on behalf of the YP.S., expressed aripreciation and thanks for the evening‘s entertainment, which was apipropriately responded to by President S. G. Fowler for the A.Y.P.A. After the departure of the guests of the evening several items of business were discussed by the AY.P.A., which were, in actuality, plans for more hapyly times in the form of trips out of town in the very near future. Mrs. Lawley retained her excellent reputation when the everâ€"welcome item of refreshments appeared, for the ball game had somewhat stimulated everyâ€" one‘s appetite and the splendid lunch was especially enjoyed.

Doran and Cecile of South Porcupine acted as umpires for the game. â€" For the Muckers, Clark was catcher: Montgomery, pitcher; Michaelson, first base; Mulvihnill, second; Ray, third; Proulx was shortâ€"stop; Libby, Ostrowâ€" sky, Burke, and Parsons were fielders. Wottam was brought on as a pinchâ€"hitâ€" ter but the pitcher thought he was more of a handful than a pinch. For his agility in the field Libby called forth comment from the bushwhackers, the ground hogs, the dears (noâ€"deer). the whiskyâ€"jacks, and all the other birds assembled in the wilds to watch those mpuckers make the dust fiy. He did not catch one,â€"there was a pile of pulpwood between him and the ball.

Preston Tells About the Weather to Come. Has Pet Poreupine at Cook Mountain Tower, Near Ramore. Writing from Cook Mountain fir rangers‘ tower, near Ramore, H. 4 Preston lays claims to being a weatht prophet and he suggests his claim recailling some facts as well as by mak ing some forecasts. Last winter in létier to The Advance Mr. Pri there would be no real winter ter the new year and that came it would be a mild one. suing facts proved the corre this fcorecast. Now, Mr. dicts that the coming wi about November 15th anc be a real cold one, but from the fire rangeors‘ tower where he spends the summers. He explains that he has always noticed that if there is lots of warm weather in June or the first two weeks of July that the comâ€" ing winter seems to come early, but if there is a lot of cold weather late in May and warm weather late in August and September that the winter seems to stay away till the new year. He ought to know the weather pretty well, he suggests, when he climbs a mountain daily and then stays up in an 80â€"foot tower. He‘calls up headcuarters twice daily and when he sees or hears signs of rain, even though it be clear day, he tells them and nearly every time he has been correct. In a note to The Agavance tnis week Mr. Preston has some very interesting information. "I can see a farmer three miles away from the tower," he writes. "He is hammering nails and I can acâ€" tually hear him every time he strikes the nail. I can see a brakeman on the T. N. O. turning a switch five miles away. But, of course, I have a powâ€" erful glass. There is quite a lot to learn on tower up high on a mounâ€" tain, and if anyone does not believe that let then come and camp there for month and see if it is not true." Mr. Preston has a pet porcupine livâ€" ing with him this summer. It has its home under the shack in which he lives, He watches it i1 the evenings climb trees and feast on the leaves and the bark. Also, he notes that there are no‘ nearly so many mice around the house that there were last summer. Golden Wedding at south End Last Week Porcupine Goidfields Band Giving Outâ€" door Concerts Now.
