Sovereign Bank notes or bills are
good for one hundred cents on the
dollar. The fact that the Sovereign
has banded over its business to the
other banks does not discount the
valve of the bills of the Sovereign var-
iety. People need have no hesitation
in accepting the hills as legal tender.
Any bank will take then on deposit
or change them for others. Once they
t each the banks however, they will no
longer see the light of circulation. As
they are gathered in the Sovereign
Bank bills will be forwarded to Otta-

with the Dominion government.
The "big head" is a popular way of
expressing a common and very fre-
quent ailment. It arises from various
sources, but the real foundation ' is a
lack of sense. A little money develops
it in some people; a few good clothes
give it to others; a little office, where
a chance is given to exercise a little
authority, is often the cause of it.
while others get it having :t little bet-
ter job than their associates. The
truth is no sensible person gets the
"big head." The ones who become
stuck tip and stiff-necked from sources
of any kind, are weak in the intellec-
tual calibre.

Praic Meetisrt
At a meeting of the business raven
and others Tuesday afternoon it was
decided to call a meeting of the rate-
payers of the village on Monday eft;.,
Feb. 24th. at the Town Hall, for the
pitp:oe of disrnssing the advisability
of again submitting a by-law to the
ratepayers to grant a free site to the
filhhs Company for the evaporator,
the feeling being that the by-law was
not, understood when submitted 1e•
fore. Evet y ratepayer is teglested to
be present. It is practically certain
that the Company will withdraw• from
town if the site he not granted.

The meanest man the printer has to
deal with is the fellow who gets be-

sends in word to stop it. Ile should
remember also that the law allows the
printer to continue to send the papet

collect for the same. The newspaper
man is usually easy to deal with if
dealt with in fair manner.
