Extension Of Railway.
The Intercolonial Railway may 'be
extended from Montreal to Toronto.
The question is likely, it is said, to
be taken up at once by the Dominion
Government. surveys and estimates
being made with a view to informing
the Cabinet as to the feasability and
cost. A rough estimate places the
latter at twenty millions.
No Better Country.
H. F. Williams of the Vancouver
Province, and formerly editor of The
Watford Guide -Advocate, writes to
that paper mentioning a slump in real
estate prices in the Prairie Provinces.
He continues—"Take it all around,
old Ontario is as good a country as
you will find in the Dominion. The
pace may not be so fast, but the re-
sults are more certain. For a man
with some capital there are many op-
portunities for profitable investment,
but with respect to wage earners $2 a
day in Ontario is equivalent to $1
here."
Automobile Accidents.
Sec. 285 of the Criminal Code was
amended at the last session of the
Dominion Parliament by the insertion
of the following --"Whenever, owing
to the presence of a motor car on the
highway, an accident has occurred to
any person or to any horse or vehicle
in charge of any person, any person
driving the motor car shall be liable
on summary conviction to a fine not
exceeding $50 and costs or to impris-
onment for a term not exceeding 30
days, if he fails to stop his car, and,
with intent to escape liability, either
civil or criminal, drives on without
tendering assistance and giving his
name and address." Any person driv-
ing a. horse just needs to hold up their
hand and the automobile man must
give assistance,
—Dr. Sawdon of Listowel died last
week, having contracted small pox,
while up north.
Great Concrete Bridge.
There was recently opened for
traffic at Auckland, New Zealand, a
reinforced concrete bridge which
contains the largest masonry arch
in existence, The structure consists
of nine approach spans of from 43
to 81 feet,, and a great central arch
of 320 feet. The latter is hinged at
the abutments and at the centre. It
consists of two separate ribs, con-
nected by cross struts, with a .floor
resting on slender columns built up
from the ribs. Provision is made
for a 21 -foot roadway and two six-foot
sidewalks.

Vinegar Talks By The Wilson
Lytle Badgerow Co., Toronto
(Tho Largest Vinegar works
In America
TALK NO. 9—GRADES Of VINEGAR.
Vinegar is generally graded in
several different strengths suitable to
the different requirements of the
trade. These grades are identified by
X's branded on the ends of the barrel.
One X is a vtry weak vinegar used
frequently for table purposes. Two X
is a better grade of table vinegar and
so on up to the very strong grades.
Wilson's XXX'abd extra XX are the
grades most highly recommended for
pickling purposes. Weak vinegars
(though less in price) are a delusion
and a snare for pickling. Many un-
scrupulous grocers try to palm off on
their customs a weaker vinegar for
the sake of the extra profit. If you
want good pickles, better be sure of
your • grade of vinegar. Wilson's
three X tests 88 grains government
strength. This is the best for pick-
ling. Better ask your grocer to see
the barrel with the red ends with
three X branded on the end.

The Post is holidaying this week,
The W. C. T. U. will hold a picnic

The Queen's Hotel was recently
fined for Sunday selling. A charge
against the "American was not
proven.
Brussels Public School re -opened on
Tuesday with Principal Cameron, and
assistants Misses Davidson, Smith,
Downing, Ross and Buchanan.
The brickwork at Alfred Baeker's
new residence is completed and the
slaters from London have been at

Here's a chance for the 'boys and
