All deserved praise to there, and may our worthy Board of Trade long have their aid to such an extent in other schemes, which may be deemed chesty - able to advocate and place in success- ful operation. There is, however, an element still wanting' to Make the mar- ket what it should and might be, and itis the assistance of the ladies of our town. Their patronage, and naught will be left to be desired, and whilst we ask them as a matter of village patriotism to take this spot under their wing, we might suggest that the pleas ure of buying their roll and dozen un. udcrod by aught save the morning breeze, will go some distance to repay for a seeming inconvenience. With the close pursuing autumn season and the closing summer, potatoes,cabbages and vegetables of all kinds, a spring chick- en or duck will add their attraction. tb this resort, and the needs of all may be supplied at one time without loss to the gains of our village merchants.. • And whilst exchanging material a things with our country friends and exossing'titeir hands with a "bit o' the siller," a mutual and pleasant ex- ehattge can be made of more material expressions of good will and kindness, and .t; cement Chits formed- of the most e al �, uab le kind to coiiliect and retain the generous support of our country side:.

IsThis see A peculiarity about the blind is that. there is seldom one'of them that smokes. Soldiers and sailors accustomed to smoking and who have lost their sight in action continue to smoke for a short time, but soon,' give up the habit. They say it gives them no pleasure when they cannot see the smoke, and some have said they cannot taste the smoke unless they see it. This almost demonstrates the theory that if- you blindfold a man in a room full of smoke and put a lighted and unlighted cigar in his mouth alternately, he will not be able to tell the difference. Lady True Blues. The Lady' True Blues of Ontario are endeavoring to establish an orphanage for Protestant children and have issued an, appeal which says: "The time has arrived :when the Protestant women in our land feel themselves in duty' bound to enter the field inthe cause of Pro testantisin. This fund is not to be known as a charitable one by which: our orphans are to be sustained, but a fund to which they have a rightful claim to their sustenance andeduce tion, and we appeal to all friends of the cause to render us their aid in this most needful work."
