s'(ir1_II&HT IN THE ACT -Two young
men named Heather and Peterson,
were caught burglarising Spackman
& Co's store Sunday morning about 4
o'clock. They had been working in
Staff. and walked to town during the
night. An entrance was effected to
the store by way of a back window,
which they pried open. The front
which are a
left
blinds, always up, to
afford night watchman Parsons an
opportunity of looking into the store
while on his rounds, being down,
aroused the suspicion of the night con-
stable, who at once apprised Mr.
Spackman of the fact. Closer investi-
gation proved that burglars were at
work inside; a posse of men was soon
gathered and the store surrounded.
Leel by Chief Constable Gill, a detach-
ment of the crowd went into the store
by way of the front door. The burg-
lars ran, but being unable to get out of
the building they sought a hiding place
in the cellar, where they were captur-
ed. The lads were taken to the police
station, and locked up until Monday
when Squire Snell remanded thein: to
Goderich for trial, A third party was
to have joined them in the work, ' but
when time for action came his nerve
failed him. They selected goods to the
amount of $60, which they intended
carrying: away.
A SURE REDIEDr.-An exchange
gives the following, which may be of
use to our readers: Every little while
we read in the papers of some one
who has stuck a rusty nail in bis hand,
knee, foot, or some other part of the
body, and lockjaw resulted therefrom,
of which my patient died. If the
patient was aware of the remedy for
all such wounds, and applied it, all
such reports wouldcease. The remedy
is simple, always on hand, can be ap-
plied by anyone, and what is better,
it is infallible. It is to smoke the
wound. that is inflamed with burning
woollen cloth. Twenty minutes of
the• smoke of wool will take the burn
out of the worst case of inflammation
arising from a wound. People may
sneer at the remedy as much as they
please, but when they are afflicted
just let thein try it. It has saved
many lives and much pain, and it is
worthy of being printed in • letters of
gold and put up in every home.

tained a number of friends on Tuesday
