ST. AUGUSTINE,
On Monday afternoon of last week,
Mr. Wm. Sillib and Mr. John Jeff-
erson, of St. Atigustit,e, drove up to
the Sterling Bank and Mr. Sillib
went in, leaving Mr. Jefferson in the
buggy. The horse managed to rub its
bridle off and Mr. Jefferson being af-
flicted with paralysis was unable to
jump clear of the rig ani was thrown
down, receiving a nasty cut at his left
eye and some severe bruises. The ser-
vices of Dr. Weir were secured and
four stitches were required to close the
wound. The horse took a straight road
down the hill and failing to make the
turn at the evaporator went through
the fence. Having freed itself of the
buggy, it proceeded down the river
bank and landed in the Maitland River.
from which it was recovered not much
the worse, having only a few slight
scratches. We hope for Mr. Jefferson's
speedy recovery.

in favor of Baby's Own Tablet as
they saved my little one's life. .:efore
giving him the Tablets he w:, greatly
troubled with worms d as like a
skeleton and cried day night. The
'Tablets soon expelled e worms and
now baby is the picture of health."
Baby's Own Tablets also break up colds
and simple fevers, cure constipation
and indigestiona and make the teething
period painless. They are sold by

shovels, wheelbarrows, split -log drags,
road graders and all kinds of mer„ boys,
horses, tools and implements from both
village and country areinvited to attend
a grand bee at the school tomorrow,
Friday, May 7, forenoon and afternoon
in order to celebrate Arbor Day by
levelling and grading the school yard
and getting it ready for seeding down.
There are two kinds of patriotism. One
is to die for your country; the other is
to work for it. The school is an in-
stitution that influences every member
of the nation and to make our country
greater there is no more certain way
than to make the school better. Blue -
vale school belongs to us all and this
is true to a greater degree in this com-
munity than is usually the case for the
grounds are to be improved not only
for the benefit of the children but as a
recreation centre for everyone in the
neighborhood and the work to be done
on Arbor Day has been planned by the
grounds committee representing the
Women's Institute, Literary Society,
teacher, trustees and ratepayers. In-
spector Field said not long ago that
Bluevale has the best rural school in
his Inspectorate. At the time that
may have been flattery on the In-
spector's part but it is going to be true
when the grounds are improved, the
new library opened and the school
garden started. A little. bit of united
effort and team work such as is called
for on Arbor Day will soon make it the
best in the whole country.
The cream drawers are out on their
routes once more. Mr. John Stewart
has the contract for cream drawing this
season.

Mount Forest has been home for a few
days on sick leave.
The Westminster Guild of Knox
Church will have the pleasure on Sun-
day evening of hearing an address from
Rev. D. Perrie of Wingham on the
subject, "Why I am proud of my
Denomination." The meeting opens at
half past seven and everybody is
welcome.

A COMMON SORROW.
`tribute to the Canadians that comes
from our friends across the line in the
form of an editorial in the Buffalo
Evening News will net fail to arouse
the gratitude of which it is deserving:
Buffalo and the frontier generally
has something more than a common
interest in the list of Canadian casual-
ties after the battle of Langemarck and
St. Julien. We experience, too, some-
thing of the thrill of their countrymen
across the border when we read
the tales of their heroism and gallantry
in action.
Buffalonians who have paused in their
short automobile journeys and drawn
up alongside the road at old Fort
Niagara to watch the businesslike
Canadians at their game of playing
soldier, have difficulty visualizing them
in a setting of deadly artillery fire,
rushes across fire zones, fierce charges
and all the other terrible stage pictures
of war.
Yet they were the same men who
made an imperishable name for the
territorials at Langemarck and St.
Jullen- Major Bennett, of Peterboro;
Capt. Lockhart -Gordon, of Toronto; and
the affable Lieut. Day, of Kingston.
These men were more nearly our
brothers than they were kin to the
English comrades with whom they
fought, Canada will understand when
we make her affliction a common sorrow.
SOLDIERS' ARMOUR.
Many years ago several inventors
developed bullet-proof cloths or breast
plates, and in spite of much advertising
their suggestions were never adopted -
much to the surprise of civilians. The
reason is very simple. If the bullet is
stopped its energy is transmitted to the
shield, which in turn, delivers a blow to
the soldier's body. The severity of the
blow depends upon the velocity of the
shield, and if the shield is very light the
chest-wall receives more or less injury.
In order to be harmless the shield must
weigh at least 10 pounds.
It is a repetion of the old circus trick
of striking with a sledge -hammer an
anvil on a man's chest. If in place of
the anvil we substitute a thin metal
plate, the blow would be fatal, and
sledge -hammer has about the same
energy as a bullet at high velocity. 1f
the shield weighs but six pounds or
eight pounds, the blow of the bullet
almost knocks a man down. Soldiers
are not to wear armour but to get be-
hind it, as in armored ships, forts and
motor cars.
Howard Coneybeare, at Lindsay, con-
fessed to charges of stealing money
from the Canadian Express Company,
but sentence was suspended on condi-
tion that he enlist, which he did.
LIVE STOCK MARaETS
Toronto, May 3rd --Union Stock
Yards -125 cars, with 2,695 cattle, 207
calves,506 hogs, and, 59 sheep and
lambs.
Buyers who rightly anticipated that
after the sharp advance in cattle prices
last week there would be a heavy run
to -day were not disappointed, for on the
opening of the market there was the
heaviest run of cattle offering for some
time past, the total amounting to close
upon 3,000 head of cattle. With such
heavy receipts on hand, buyers looked
for a sharp recession in prices, but in
this respect they were not quite such
sure guessers as in the matter of the
expected run, for a while prices'
did not advance any, neither did they
recede very much, not more than per-
haps about 5 cents average on the gen-
eral run of medium light cattle, while
choice heavy butcher cattle sold good
and steady at about last week's prices,
several small choice lots going over the
"tales at $8 to $5.25, and good to choice
medium weight butcher loads at $7.511
to 57,85.
Stockers and feeders steady.
Calves steady.
Lambs steady; sheep a little firmer.
Hogs were quoted easier at $8.85
weighed off cars, a few decks selling
steady with last week's closing price
at $9.
