They Were for the Devil
Our "divil" received a barrel of
choice eating apples from an admiring
rural friend one day last week.' His Ma-
jesty is proud, of the gift and hasbeen
liberally treating his villag&•friends'
ever since. • The sender of the
precious gift is unknown, but he hopes.
his shadow will never grow less..
Thanks for your apples; honest friend,
May all friends prove as civil.

Will be Leap Year
February, 1892, will have 29 days
in, other words, 1892 will be a leap
year. The rule is that all yearswhose
figures, or date numbers, are divisable
without remainder by four ,are leap
years, excepting the century years,
which are leap year only when they
are divisable without remainder by
•r 400. For instance, 1800 Was not a
leap year, and 1900 will not. be, but
2000 will be. The old maids may rest
in patience. There's opportunity for
them yet in the latter year to open
their proposals.

his liat on a stump near the river, and
search being made his body was found
in the river near. by. It is reported
that a razor was • found in his pocket.
The prevailing opinion • is that he

Oh, That Man From Bruce
-In the Far West, the Bruce man is
numerous—there is " many of him," so
to speak. . He is generally good-na-
tured, popular, discerning, but some-
times the unhappy hero of many
exquisite blunders ;, hence there are a
great many humorous stories afloat
about the artless, unsophisticated man
from Bruce. One of the best of these
yarns is thus told by. the
Free Press of October 20th, tl
being laid near Donald, a sma
in British Columbia : " The man from
Bruce, with his bride, was on
cific. express, and, when nearin
ald, the brakesman, as usual, shouted,
" Donald ! Donald !" • This
our Donald to his feet, with the excla-
mation, " It's none of your goldarned
business if I did kiss her ; we were
married' last week !"

A Big Stock Man
Mr. James Gaunt, the genial Reeve
of Kinloss township, is the owner of
one of the largest saw -mills in the
county; and annually shipps to all
parts of the Province an immense
quantity of lumber,• etc. But it
requires more than an ordinary mill
to keep Jim busy, and during ' his
leisure . time he successfully superin-
tends and inanages some 800 acres of
farm lands. Most of a place, how-
ever, is devoted to stock raising, and
during the past season h has sold to•
Messrs, Hananton &' F.:- .illespie, of•-
Whitechurch, 178 head of f 't cattle, for
which ' he received in col cash the
magnificent sum of $8600. Mr.
Gaunt is .undoubtly the: most exten-
sive and prosperous farmer in '"the
county, and will winter over between
30 and 40 head of cattle which will be
fit for the English market in the
spring.
The Lawyer's Harvest
• Within the next three months no
fewer than 39 Dominion election
trials will take place in Ontario. The
lawyer who will be lucky enough to
act for the petitioner or respondent
will, have a fat take. A great many
bushels of barley at the meagre price
of 35 cents will be required for the
toiling children of the bush (what Mr.
Lister calls the farmer) to make as
much as the barrister .for his short

—The following from an exchange
only too true : It is strange how
losely men read the papers. We
ever say anything that anybody
oesn't like but we soon hear of it.
1, however, we once in a while hap -
en to say a good thing we never:hear
f that ; nobody seems to notice it.
re 'may pay a man a hundred compli-
ants and give him a hundred puffs,
nd he takes it as a tribute to • his
reatness, and never thinks it does
iu1 any good. But if we happen to
y something this man •doesn't.like, or
imagines he a reflection on
is character see how quickly he flares
p and gets mad about it. All inds
evil are charge to us, but we never,
pparently, get any credit for what
oodwe do. •
—Look out for R. Graham's change
ad. next week. Something for
