Questions of Law.
Tororto Mall and Empire.
M. F., Clinton.--Qu.-1 bought fills
worth of furniture over a year ago,
and paid $100 On account. The furni-
ture dealer came and took the whole
of it away hecsu.e I could not pay the
M. Had he any legal right to do set?
(2) Can I recover tte furniture, or tae
him for damage* or trespass ?
Ans.-ff you bought the furniture
to be paid for on the instalment plan,
and signed an agreement, you wilt
very likely find that the agreement
provides that in default of pay-,nent of
any of the instalments the vendor can
take possession of the furniture and
remove it. These ngreement3 are
usually called "lien agreements." They
are to worded as to preserve to the
vendor a lien upon the article, not-
withstanding that he has parted with
the possession of it. They :are also
called "conditional sale agreements,"
and some of thein provide that in case
of default in making any of the pay-
ments the vendor can take possession
of the furniture or piano, as the cane
may be, and can treat the previous
payments as a rental, and can retain
or resell the article. I cannot give
you any definite advice on the matter
without seeing the agreement which
you signed or a copy of it. Lien
agreements, or conditional vale agree-
ment, :are not all alike.
l.•K. L.. Egwnndville.--Qu.-A per-
son owned property on a street con-
sisting of two lots. One lot hiss
a frame stable and the other has a
brick store on it. He asked a woman
to lend him Wen and told her that be
would give her a mortgage on "this"
property. This conversation took
piece in the store. She loaned him
the money and he gave her a mort-
gage on the lot that has the stable
or. it. She did not know there were
two lots and supposed she was getting
a mortgage on the brick store. The
lot with the stable on it is not
worth more than about $3311. Can
she demand tuck her SAtltl ? 12) Can
Rho demand that heehottld give her a
mortgage on the store property ?
(i) Whet proceedings s b os' l d she

storekeeper. Ile may now contradict

An admiring parishioner hof a
young divine in an Ohio town recently
had a telephone installed i0 the clergy -
111.8 Ouse. The good man was
delighted with the convenience, and
used it immediately before going to
church.
When the time tame for him to an-
nounce the first hyutn, he read the
first lines with his usual impressive-
ness, and concluded with :
"Let us all unite in hymn seven 0
three."
The GURNEYrOXFORD
is an efficient RANGE
A business is, kept up-to-date because it means a
difference between profit and loss. The successful
business uses such modern time -and -labor -savers as
typewriters, adding machines and electricity. Woman's
work in the home is also a matter of profit and loss.
If she has improved and modern toots, she gains time
and leisure and better results. If she has old-fashioned
ideas to contend with, she loses energy and effort
and peace of mind
The Gurney -Economizer is the greatest- single
improvement ever devised to simplify cooking. It
regulates the fire and heat of the oven with one
direct motion. The heat of the fire is distributed by
a scientific arrangement of flues that keeps the oven
uniformly heated. The grates hold the fire on the
least possible surface.
The Gurney -Oxford Range is a most efficient
piece of household furniture. It puts the kitchen on
the same labor-saving, up-to-date basis as a successful
business.
