Gough was engaged iu writing a new buok, its appuarauce has been watched for wit fate nae interest. It has recently been published, and the enormous sales adoni a striking instance of the success that v sure to be awarded to a really good work. Although only just published, the two.i- ty-sixth thousand is already printed; and this fact alone is worthy of notice, tor a bruit which sells like this must be one of extraordinary interest. John B. Gough, the author of "Sun- light and Shadow," is too well known to require any eulogy here. Thousands are fatuditr with the history of his life: his early poverty, the depth of the degrada- tion to which he deeeended while a vie- tim of drink, his wretched condition and terrible sufferings, his superhuman straggles against intemperance, his re- form, his relapsehis re-signing of the pledge and final victory, his world-wide fame, and his extensive travels and pro- tracted labors in thiscountry and •breed. Thirty-five years ago Mr. Gough first published his Autobiography. He had then just recovered from a life of un - parallelled dirsilrrtion, and was just en- tering the career which has since made him so famous. In 1868 a new edition of that work, with additions and emen- dations, was given to the public. It con- tained a history of his early life, with some recollections of his career as a public speaker. It did not embody the intensely interesting and exciting record of the many thrilling, pathetic, and amuang scenes of human life. "From grave to gay, from lively to severe." which all the world knew had crowded themselves into his long and varied ca- reer. These have now been gathered for the first time, and the new book, "Sun- light and Shadow," is the medium --and the only one—through whichthese thrill- ing details have ever been,preeented to the public. •'Sunlight and Shadow" is indeed a remarkable book by a remarkable moa. Mr. Gough's recollections of his own ex- periences have made him ever ready to lend a helping hand to others, and the very nature of his life -work has brought him into close contact with poverty, crime, destitution and vice, and he has listened to life -histories of the most thrilling nature, and witnessed scenes that testify anew to the truth of the adage, "Fact is stranger than Fiction." Surge of the saddest and most pathetic incidents ever told are narrated in the present work, and the reader's oyes will fill in spite of himself at the power of Mr. GAugh's pathos in describing scenes that have come under hie personal ob- servation. But "Sunlight and Shadow" ie not altogether a reoord of dark, experiences. It has a bright and sunny side. Mr. Gough's stones and descriptions of the humorous side of life, as he ins seen and experienced it, portra many amusing scenes. His remarkable facility for see- ing the ludicrous side of every thing, and his talent for humorous descrip- tion, are well known. No one can tell more amusing things and in a mere irre- sistibly bumoroua way than John A. Gough.

Heavy FAL.—Last week a fall that might have proved serious in its conse- quences befel Mr. John Atkin. He was on top of a load of bay andthrough some mishap fell backwards, off the load, strik- ing the corner of the rack in his descent, and severely bruising his hip. He was pretty badly hurt, but with good care he was sufficiently recovered to get out in • couple of days. VALUABLs '1'aotouoasaaD PctCaAs- En.—A valuable addition has been made to the thoroughbred stock of Ashfield, by the purchase of a fine thoroughbred 101, "Duke of W ellinn," by Mr. Jos. H. Gardner, of the 10t con. The an - mal was purchased at Fergus from Messrs. J. :Sc W. McDermott, for the handsome sum of $140. SLATING CaAY?ZONaRlr.—The silver Cup put up by R. Henderson, of the Domusion Skating Rink, Kincardine, for the Championship of the Counties of Huron and Bruce was won easily by G. Kerr, of this village, who came out best in the two contests on Wednesday even- ings of last week and this week- The Cup was to be given to the skater who covered the greatest diMenoe in an hour. Kerr skated 11 miles the last evening. We understand there was considerable excitement over the race. Snowmen Maws.—A match between sereu married, and an equal number of single gentlemen took place at the Corns Range on Tuesday afternoon. The sin- gle men succeeded in scoring 19 points more than their opponents. On the same day a match which had been ar- ranged for atone time ago took piaci,. the opposing parties being Meese. L C.

The uncertainty of meal taking brings with it a craving for stimulants. Stews should not be 000ked too lung as then they evaporate valuable particles. It is impossible to get warm in oold weather with undigested food in your stomach. Fah should never be boiled but steam- ed, so that no fine properties are dissolv- ed the water. Exclesive diet nn peas, benne and len- a" do not develepe the brightest and quickest tone of mind. Food is only coarse when ooarrely cooked, as the plainest materials contain nutritious and dainty elements. It's a great mistake to eat half raw steaks on a cold winter's cloy. Half raw meat yields much loss nutrition than well cooked meat. Vegetables are the life and soul of healthy living, and should not be ne- glected at any meal. If meal' are kept irregularly in youth something creep" up in adult age which shows diminished vitality. The want of swarm meal in the mid- dle of the day is to people who have had perhaps but a alight breakfact and have been in the cold winter air the cause of disease and want of vitality.
