Since the coming into force of the
Canada. Temperance Act in Huron a
thriving liquor business has been go-
ing on in Mitchell. Tuesday almost
a costtinuuous stream of automobiles
came from Seaforth to town, the oc-
cupants of which carried hand grips,
in which they took back with them
large supplies of liquor. Some of the
men indulged pretty freely
while here
and an their return trip they made
the air hideous with their yells. Wed-
nesday was little better. If this thing
is allowed to continue we may look
:
for a serious accident before long, .or
they sun their cars at terrific speed,
which not only endanger their own
lives but respectable travellers are
place( la thesame category. Con-
stable,: should be on the alert and
assist it putting an enol to such prac-
tices.—Se says the Mitchell Advocate.

A number of baseball fans went to

The showers of rain, Sunday night.
and Monday afternoon were greatly

welcome. The pastures, roots, end
corn, were beinning to show, the ef-
fects of the dry spell:
The necessity of keeping matches
beyond the reach of children is dem-
onstrated almost every day by the fa -
tee "accidents in the days's news. If
matches are only placed in safes that
are high enough there can be no ding
er. Aad it is. quite as, easy to place
the holders well up ora the wall as
to have them within, reach of todd-
ling children.
Tabulated returns of the results of
the voting in the different constitu-
encies in the Provincial elections in
June gives the Whitney Government
a popular majority of about 60,583.
This is' something like 11,000 ,none
than. in the general election of 1911.
This inccrease is largely caused- by
the fact thatthere were fewer ac-
clamations
-
clanations
this time.
"On no accou;at bathe shortly after
a hearty meal." This is a rule with
which few people aa•e unfamiliar, yet.
one that is more frequently lroken
than observed. The fact that clfovn
ings have been unusually numerous
is Ontario recently, and that a number
of them are reported to have
been due to this cause, is sufficient
proof of the need of stricter obser-
vance of the rule.
