A successful entertainment: was held in the Trivitt Memorial Hall on Friday evening last when a Christmas Can tats was rendered by the Sunday School children, assisted by Misses Hyiidman and Oke, and Messrs Mars. land and Hurdon. One of the marked features on the program was a simple song by the three year old son of Mr.Hurdon, who for one so ' oung, did ex- ceptionally well and received a well merited encore.

An excellent motto for the title page of 1893's scrap book:“Don't Meddle.” The man who does net meddle is liked by his friends and respected by his en envies The old boiler which was recently re placed by teat of a new one at iiosS & Taylor's planingfactory was shipped to Galt on Wed, to the firm that sup- plied the new one. Some of the old weathe,ristical prog- nostications assure us that this winter will be blessed with a larger amount of snow than for many years past. The prediction has been realized so far. The L. 0 L. district meeting Which wa:s to have taken place on Tuesday last at Crediton, has been postponed on account of the severe snow storm and bad roads until the 17th of Janu- ary. Several from here drove there on Tuesday but were disappointed, The Crediton people are to be compli- mented on the elaborate preparations *rade by there. The Brandon Sur says: "During the ratter part of last week there was quite a perceptible flutter amongst grain men. ' One of their number— the Lake of the Woods buyer -was Outbidding all the others, and had run the price of wheat from 48 to 52 cents. It is that figure to day. What the prospects are for a future rise it is hard to conjecture. The deliveries are small, however, as the great bulk of the wheat is marketed. The price of ,oats and barley remain about the same, 16 cents for the former and 18 to 20;ceu.ts for the latter. Hay is sell ing• at from $6,50 to $7 per ton. Wood daring the past week has fallen in price and a very good article can be had now by the carload for $3 per cord. Seaforth i)ye Works.. All orders for the above Dye can 'be left with E, H. Fish, iioy Wantgal, The New Ycl<ar began -with Sunday.. In ye olden time such an occurrence brought forth the following prognosti cation: -"It is affirmed by some one, when New Year's Day falleth on the Sunday, then a pleasant winter doth ensue; a natural summer; fruite suffi • tient; haruvest 'indifferent, yet some winds and seine; many marriages; plentie of wine and honey; death 'of young men and Cattell; robberies in most places; neves of prelates, of kings, and cruel warres in the end, A .4 reaak of Nature. A cow belonging to Mrs, T. H. Dun bar,ot Downie, recently save birth to a calf that is a freak of nature. It is possessed of two heads, perfect from the eyes down, haying four eyes two noses and two mouths, while it has but two ear's. The animal ;is of ordin- ary size in boby. It drinks with both mouths, and is naturally the talk of the country. As a singular fact it may be mentioned that another eow on the same farm lately gave birth to twin calves. Horse Shipments. "Mr. A 'White, of Winnipeg', shipped two car loads of very good horses from here to 'Winnipeg on Wednesday. Mr White paid his first visit to Seaforth in February last and since then he has shipped from here over 200 • horses, for which he has paid out over • $29,000. This is a pretty good showing• for one buyer at one single point in the conn ty and shows that there is life in the horse trade vet although prices are low. Mr. \Vhite, who is one of the ,argent horse dealers in Manitoba, in forms ns that during the past year, there was paid out in Winnipeg alone, over $120,000 for Ontario horses, and only a small proportion of the trade of the whole province is done in that city."—Expositor. An ImportantD)ecision. An important legal decision has re- cently been rendered by Chief Justice Armour. John Beaver, of Caledonia, brought action against the Grand Trunk for wrongful ejection from a railway train because he did not show his ticket. [his action was tried at Cayuga before Jude Rose, Beaver claiming $1,000 damages. J•tc•e Rose non suited -the plaintiff on the ground that it is an implied condition of every contract between passenger's ticket shall be produced whenever required. On Saturday the court of Queen's bench reversed the decision, , it -being; held that in the absence of any regulation of the company, requiring the product ion of a ticket, and entailing upon the passenger who does not produce his ticket,tlie penalty of ejection, no such �nbelt legally imposed, -ca. P penalty b A Hasty Departure A mechanic, who is said to be a mar, ried man, lett Clinton in haste not many days since. And he did not leave ane too, soon if all reports are true. He became enamored of a re- spectable young lady; he sang in the choir, &c &c. The road of the tran pressor is hard, though. Epistles of a loving nature passed to and fro. But his courtship was brought to a very sudden termination and he was anx- ious to leave for pastures new. And in parting he neglected to make things square at his boarding house.until an rffieer of the law stepped in and said "No you don't." He was then allowed to depart and boarded the train for Galt.

Now is the time to make out your orders for fruit trees and plants for spring planting: Do it yourself, and not let some oily tongued agent to make it out for you. Select such yar ieties of fruits as prove most satisfact- ory with your neighbors on similar soils and with such cultivation as you intend to wive them. If you have not already planted a sufficient quantity of small fruits to supply your family with all they can use during the whole year, plan to do so next spring by all means. In no way can you supply so much food, health and hap piness at so little cos`. Do not buy untried varieties of fruits, unless you have tested most of the old standard sorts. ,Many a farmer has been dis couraged from growing small fruits, simply because some oily tongued a- gent had persuaded him to begin by planting some new, high priced, un- tried kinds that ,proved worthless, in. stead of advising him to plant the old standard sorts that succeed With near- ly everybody.
