Tir4T OitiPmEn couple of Weeks, ago there appeared a petty item in the Usborne correspondence to -the Advo. age, concerning a joke whioh its egotistical ancl romping correspondent was wont to palm off as a; faot. Trnely several neighbors had ettgregated where tEe twe young, tinkers were in camp, and did talk trade, but at the tinkers' proposal, Amongst other things, the colt whioh was slightly crippled. WAS spoken of and a prof- fer to exchange it for a watoh jokingly made. It was not necessary for the tin- kers to to to a neighbor's house for inforra- ation relative to the oolG, 00 were they dispoaed to mistake the joke in earnest, a alert walk to an adjacent barn would have taken them te the oolt ; and it is presum- ed that they are well enough posted on horse flesh to learn for themselves the true oondition of the colt. The item is a mere fame and it was construed into the,mean-. ing giyen merely out of animosity. But the drive was not very extensive nor at pal. itable for the unsuseeptible commuuity of the 4th COD.

Ile appeared perfectly sane on the previons evening. No ODO can tell what made him do the rash aot, An inquest was beld and O verdict rendered accordingly. We are always pleased to welcome vieit- ors to our town, because we are proud of it. It is a well known fact that the question has been asked by non-residents, "Isn't Zurich a great place for drinking!" and other such questions, which would lead one to believe that our popular little town was away below par. Probably the best way to account for ,such an opinion is this: Zur- ich as well as other small towns are visited by a certain class of young and. elderly men., who do not wish their friends at home to think that they would get "just a little bit fnuny," take this alternative by giving the small neighboring towns no oocasional visit and going in for a good time dui. Friends at home got on to the racket and of course somebody let the cat out of the bag and then the visited town must shoulder the consequence. We al- ways wish to make visitors at home, but parties who wish to have a good. time un- known to their friends at home, will kindly not give our prospering little towo away agam. The family picnic whioh took place in Taylor's Grove last week was one of those pleasant events we like to write about. The party ooneisted of fathers, mothers, brothers, sisters, eousins, son, daughters and. all thereat. They started in four big carriages. Dinner was served at 11.30 a. m., and everybody ate sumptuously.
