It's nice to be a hero and wear a
tine uniform and accumulate cheap
feminine kisses, malaria and glory,
but we don't cure for any of Uncle
Sam's hero diet. The morn conclusive
evidence has been furnished thet not
only were those who eagerly 'rushed

In Committee of the Legislature
the other day, Mr. Barber, the paper
manufacturer herrn Halton, one of the
able.business men of the House, point-
ed out that municipal bonusea were
largely responsible for the collapse of
the woollen industry some years ago,
and that if munNoalities were permit-
ted to bonus pork -packing establish-
ments, as it was clear there was now
a tendency to do, the whole pork -pack-
ing industry of the Province would
be demoralized in a few years. It
was already in a critical condition.,
bocusing would. bring over competi-
tion and ruin.
The coinbiestion has decided to ad-
_
vance the price of cottons, en .ac.
count of an advance in the cost of
the raw material, though it it stated
that the mills have plenty of raw
cotton in stock for the season's op-
erations, and' that they have orders
booked to keep them busy for a con-
siderable period. It in, an excellent
time for Parliament to say "duties
down." Then consumers can purchase
outside of the combination, if corn-
binatien prices do not suit In an
open market, somebody, somewhere,
will be glad to sell at an ordinary
profit on what the raw 'material
used actually cost. .
The Postmaster -General's report
shows that the businees of the Depart-
ment is inreasing. The estimated
number of letters sent through the
pot-otlice during the year ended last
June exceeds that of the previous
year by 11,145,000, the total number
of 1898 being 134,975,000. Ten years
ago the number of letters sent through
the mails in Canaas, was 80,200,000.
In addition to letters handled last
year, there were 28,153,000 post-
cards, 3,534,500 registered letters,
5,673,000 free letters, 26,595,000
newspapers and periodicals, 3,372,000
packages of printers' copy, photo-
graphs, etc, 1,813,000 packets ef
fifth -class matter, 316,000 parcels by
parcel post, and 33,000 packets for
the United Kingdon and other coun-
tries. The gross revenue of the De-
partment weed 84,636,649.
It is very satisfactory to read that
Great Britain and Frauce came to an
agreement last week and parcelled out
the last portion of 'Africa still open

Mr. Editor—Allow me space in
yoer paper this week to speak a few
words about stealing fowls. Two young
men came to the premises of Mr. Alex.
Hackett, of Ashfield, on Thursday
night and stole several fuwls. As
they are well-known, and as this
thing has been carried on all last
suAul mer and fall, I hereby worn them
that Unless the fowls are returned at
once, the guilty parties will be
prosecuted.—Cost. •
, Poi* Aching
In various towns throughout On-
tario the pork packing industry is
receiving a boom' and a number of
these in,dustries are being started this
Spriag. Is not Lucknoiw a good place
for one of them? Larke numbers of
hogs are shipped away from here
which might just as well .be utilized
for a local industry, and if • Lucknow
capitalists would give the matter a
little study they might concludethat
money thus invested would bring goad
profits.
Inspector Campbell's Visit
Mr. A. Campbell, I. P. S., gave 118
his usual call on Wednesday and
Thursday of last week, and pronounced
our school as being in. a prosperous
condition. The grading of the rooms
might beimproved to some extent,
but before such improvement can be
made it will be necessary to engage
an extra teacher making five in all.
Parents will do well to renrember
that all 'children under the ago of
sixteen are reqeired by law to attend
school • certain number of days dur-
ing each term, unless they have a
perms -pea situation. A word to the
wise ill sufficient.

Kfeper John D. •Personal of the
Thunder Bay Island station, writes as
follows, under date of March '25 :
"People are asking Me over the line
when I think navigation will open. I
arda little tni:;.ed on that subject just
at present myself. A year ago the 21st
of March I went to Alpena in a sail
boat; on the 24th the light on this
island was lighted, and on the same
daY the Pilgrim arrived in Alpena.
Today you could drive a team from the
station door to Alpena over two feet
of solid ice, and on the outside of the
island it is shoved up fifteen 10 twenty
feet high, and the snow is drifted from
six to eight feet deep.
Buy Your Wheels as Horne
We notice by our exchanges that a
new fake is being worked on the
unwary. Recently a large number of
circulars were mailed from:New York
from a "bicycle firm" offering t1so
public a most liberal offer to introduoe
a particular make of wheel. Inreturn
for.this favor,. the company. intended
giving away absolutely free, 000
wheels. All that they asked was that
the sum of $3.85 be sent for packing,
etc. When the wheel arrived it *se -
found to be a minieture wheel suitable
for a watch charm. The moral of
this is buy your wheels and all other
kind of goods at home, where you can
see what you are getting, and where
you know the man you are buying
from.

The Empire Day
The publio schools of Ontario will
on May 23rd next celebrate "Empire
Day" for -tho first time. "Empire
Day" is the name which has been
given to the school day immediately
preceeding the 24th of May and which
will be annually devoted by the
school children to exercises calculated
to stimulate their interest in and their
love of the great empire of which this
country forms a part.
PaPlor Concert.
One of the best parlor concerts
given in the village took place at the
residence of Mr. G. W. Berry on
Thursday evening last, and was a
decided success. Every piece on the
lengthy, prograutme was admirably
rendered, and the beautiful solos
rendered by the little Misses Katie
McIntosh and Gracie Stewart, were
exceptionally good, and called fourth
well -merited applause from the large
audience present. The funds were in
aid of the Ladies Aid of the Methodist
church.
Easter Sunday
Next Sunday will be Easter Sunday,
the church festival of the year when
the most stupendious fact of flthe
Ohristian religion, the Resurrection,
is celeurated. It is a day of hope and
gladness, fortunately situated ab the
opening of spring. And is not alone
in the churches that ' great prepara
tions are amide for Eastertide. The
dressmakers and milliners vie with
Otle another in rich and tastertil pro-
ductions with which to supplant the
Lenten garb of' Dame -.Fashion, and
society plumes itself for fresh frivoli-
ties and a new burden of fleshly sins.

A very pretty home wedding took

The Ontario Lord's Day Alliance
A meeting in the iuterests of Sab-
bath preservation, was held in the
lecture room of the Presbyterian
church, Lucknow, Thursday, March
23rd, when Mr. Young. of Hamilton,
a representative of the Alliance, ad-
dressed a fairly representative meet-

the sanctity of the Sabbath and of the
manner in whieh many large corpora%
tions and contractors were pressing
their way to employ labor upon the
Sabbath day, .along many of the main
lines of railway, canals and in -steam-
boat 'services. He made a very
pathetic appeal on behalf of the work-
ing men. His address throughout was
deeply intetesting and very close to
1 the point of his work. The local
Clergy also expressed their sy b
with the work and volunteered to give
their assistance io every possible, way

peinful at times he bore with rnalleed
patience, For some days" before
death he knew that ho would not
recover, and was quite resigned to
our Heavenly Father's will. His
consistent christian character must

sorrowing widow and two daughters,
Mrs. Fair, of Lanark, and Mrs. Gilles-
pie, of Whitechurch.. The funeral on
