THE EXETER ADVOCATE.
THURSDAY, JAN. 80, 1896.
The Week's Commercial Summary.,
The Toronto meat market has recover-
ed from the low prices of December. The
retail trade is reported fairly active.
Wheat is firm in Cntario owing prob-
ably to limited receipts, and priees are
s couple of cents higher than a week ago.
There is a more active demand for
wheat in Ontario, and all grades are
firmer. White wheat is selling at 69c to
70c at Ontario points and red winter at
66c to 67c.
Tho visible supply of wheat in the
United States and Canada is now G8.815,-
4)00, a decrease of 897,000 bushels for the
week. The amount afloat to Europe is
25,520,000 bushels, a decrease of 48),000
.for the week, while the total a year ago
was 33,440,000 bushels.
Sales of wool were large again last
week inthe United States, though much
smaller than in the week following
Christmas, but attributable to tho same
cause, namely, the impression that a
duty may be imposed. It is said that
nearly all the large mills were repre-
sented in the buying, and there was an
especially good demand for worsted
goods, while sales of California were re-
markably large.
We have to report a large increase in
the number of failures in the Dominion
last week, being 81 as against 53 the
week before, and 60 in the same week of
a year ago. Quebec heads the list with
an increase of 19 over the previous
week. Ontario had 34, of this number
26 had our lowest credit or blank rating.
Nova Scotia had Sive. British Columbia
three, Prince Edward Island and Mani-
toba two each. None was reported from
New Brunswick last week.
Anthracite coal of the best quality
eontinued to sell at $3.40 per ton, f.o.b.
in New York harbor this week. A few
small sales were made at a slightly lower
price, but late in the week the more
favorable weather induced free purehases
by dealers in most tidewater cities, en-
abling the companies to move into con-
sumption a great deal of coal that had
been standing in cars on their storage
tracks for many weeks past, The com-
panies were also less inclined to force
Boal upon the western markets, partly
because prices there showed a declining
tendency and partly because the cold
weather made transportation more
costly.

THE ARIZONA KICKER,
About Postal Matters.
During the three years our predecessor
held the-officeof postmaster of this town
his private room In the posb•offioe was the
rendezvous of a gag of idlers and loafers.
When we assumed the reins of gcvJrn-
went we publicly announoed that no one
would be admitted to this room except on
offioial business. The gang took It rather
hard, and we certainly lost prestige as a
good fellow, but we carried our pnint.
Now and then an attempt bas been made
to bring about a return to the good old
state of affairs, but we have always Dome
out on top. Last Saturday old Jim Hew-
son, who detests'progress and despises in-
novation, made up his mind to override
us or perish on the spot. When wo entered
the post-offioe after.dinner we' found him
seated on the table in our private room.
He had Ilia feet cocked up on our last.
monthly report, and was smoking an old
pipe and pawing over official documents
and feeling very much at home,
Mr. Hewson expeoted us to stop to
argue and protest, and during such in-
terval he would pull his gun and make us
back water. Where we surprised . and
confounded him was in making au im-
mediate attack. The grin with which he
greeted us had only oovered half his face
when we had him by the neck. For
about three minutes we toyed with the
mistaken Jan es, and 'hon heaved him
out of the window on the sidewalk. He
left behind him his guns, his hat, one
boot, his coat-tails. a handful of hair, one
eye -brow and two front teeth, and at the
present writing he is under the dootor's
Dare and anxiously inquiring if the earth-
quake destroyed the whole town, We
will state again that the postmaster's
private room is for the postmaster alone.

any other critter in this looality who has
any doubts about it he is invited to enter

Our esteemed contemporary was out
with a sensational article last week hold-
ing us up to ridioulo for being chased out
of Pine 11111 by an indignant mob of
citizens whom we had insulted in a griev-
ous manner. The affair is very easily ex-
plained, Ten days ago we were Invited
to go over to Pine 11111 and deliver our
lecture on "Was There an Earthly Para-
dise?" We deliver this lecture now and
then for the benefit of charity, and this
is the first time any audience has found
fault with it. We take the ground that
there was a Paradise, and we enumerate
many things wbioh went to make it so.
Pine Bill is n town of 210 saloons and one
store. Nineteen out of every twenty Pine
Hillers are drunk from Monday morning
to Saturday night. Because we didn't
mention whisky as ono of the factors going
to make up an earthly Paradise wo hurt
their feelings, and a row was the result.
We own right up that we got off the plat-
form as soon as the eggs began to fiy.
We not only got off tho platform, but out
of the building. Wo were shot at as we
ran for our mule, but once on his back
we kept ahead of pursuit. Yos, wo were
egged and stoned and shot at and chased
for five miles, but wo don't feel very bad
over it. There worn 350 mon in the
irowd,and we are not idiot enough to Im-
egine that wo can stand off a gang of that
lite. Wo are tinkled to death to think wo
brought hoine our sonip with all the hair
>n it, and we grin with delight as we
ilgure up that the crowd must have
wasted at least 500 bullets. There may
bo an editor in this great and glorious
territory fool enough to stand up to a
mob howling for his blood, but we are
not in it.

A Chicago dealer in shoes, whose ad-

esteem in which he Bolds the Bicker as a

We reply that we fool highly flattered but
we can't accept the gift. If we had the
shoes we should feel like wearing them,
and it we put on those pointed toes and
took a stroll along Apache :sienna we
know just what would happen. Jim
Skinner, Hank White, Bob Taylor and the
rest of the crowd love us and would tackle
a mad grizzly to prove it, but they don t
love us well enough to permit us to crowd
the twenty-first century down their
throats. Ahout the time we got to spit-
ting over our shoulders and slinging on
Broadway style, the boys would out with
their gans and begin shooting, and if we
got ba k to the office with a too left we'd
be in great luck It's natural to us to
be a sport and a Jim•dandy, and tears
come to our eyes when we think of those
shoes, but we know the feeling of our
people and have no desire to furnish a
victim for a funeral.

It has long been the belief of practical
men in America that frost sots in two
ways in the killing of vegetation. In
soft, suopulent shoots the liquids are ex-
panded. and the tissue rent and destroy-
ed. In other oases the cell tissue contracts
during the winter season, and the liquids
either do not congeal, or, if they do, the
shrinkage of the tissue gives room for ex-
pansion, without any disruption of the
coating of the cell. In the latter case
death results from tho evaporation of the
juices, It is said that when a tree, usu-
ally hardy, dies, death results from the
drying out of plant juices, It has been
found, for instance, that a tree quite
hardy under the moist climate of England
is killed under the same temperature in
the drier climate of northeastern America.
The moist atmospheric conditions aid in
checking the drying out experienced here.

ing the kidneys. Speaking of his suffer-
ing and cure be says:
'I was confined to my bed for six weeks

any return and am -able to work as well
as ever I could in my lite."
