Re Local Option Hotels.
An important decision has been de-
livered by His Honor Judge Doyle in
three assessment appeals in Clinton.
Joseph Rattenbury, John J. McCaughey,
Joseph Reinhardt and T. G. Pike ap-
pealed to the County Judge against the
assessment on the grounds of over-
charge on land and further that they
are not liable for business tax. Since
local option came into force on the first
of May, it was shown by the evidence
that these hotel properties have de-
creased in value more than one-half.
Judge Doyle reduced the assessment as
follows: Rattenbury House from $62011
to $3500 and business assessment of
$1500 wiped out; J. J. McCaughey,
Commercial, from $4200 to $2500 and
business assessment of $1300 wiped out;
Jos. Reinhardt and T. G. Pike, Station
Hotel, from $2500 to $800 and business
tax of $625 wiped out. Regarding busi-
ness tax it was held that hotels in local
option places are not liable for business
tax.
Rural Dean Doherty of Hensall con-
ducted the services in St. Paul's Church
on Sunday last.
Mr. A. E. Du Plan of Centralia will
have charge of the services in St.
Paul's on Sunday next.
The congregation and members of the
Sunday School of St. Paul's Church
with their friends will hold a picnic on
the flats in Lower Wingham on the
afternoon of Wednesday, August 13th,
The services in St. Andrew's Presby-
terian Church on Sunday last were
conducted by the Rev. Mr. Young, of
Clifford, who preached eloquently at
morning and evening services. In the
morning Miss VanNorman and Mr.
Cline rendered a duet; and at the even-
ing service a solo was sweetly sang by
Miss MCMnrchie, of Blyth, who is visit -
Ring with her aunt, Miss Gracey, the
organist. Rev. Mr. Young will officiate
again next Sunday.
HOUSEHOLD HINTS.
A mixture of one teaspoonful of black
ink to a saltspoonful of liquid gum will
do ranch to brighten a black straw if
rubbed well into the interstices of the
plait it with a stiff 1 rush.
Eisen filled into cheesecloth bags is
entidlcelt for cleaning wall paper. It
is also better than soap' for the bath-
tub, and for the neck, face and hands
nothing is better. It is as cleansing
for clothes as for the body. Boiled,
ard the water used the same as soap
suds, it is as satisfactory for delicate
fabrics as soap and does not injure the
color.
FIX THE RESPONSIBILITY.
When a disastrous railway accident
occurs the whole trend of the enquiry
is to ascertain the cause, so that meas-
ures may be taken to prevent a recur-
rence of the wreck. If a fault is notic-
ed in any workshop is not the particular
delinquent sought out? Every travel-
ler on a steamer pays passage money:
the several branches a departmental
store are all expected to show a profit
on the year's business. So the dairy
farmer will do well to enquire as to
whether he has any delidquents in his
present herd of cows, perhaps one or
two are in a fair way to wreck his for-
tunes, their passage money may be paid
by some better producers, for 'often
two or three out of every herd of
twenty cows show no profit at all on
the year's production of fat.
Plenty of cows in June dl'id July gave
over one thousand pounds of milk and
over thirty-five pounds of fat. What
dairyman would voluntarily keep the
kind of cow that yielded only twenty—
four pounds of fat, or those that gave
only four hundred pounds of milk during
last month? Yet some men got only
that much from arest manycows in
g
Ontario and Quebec. This is the point:
each dairy cow has a certain responsi-
bility, that of producing plenty of milk
and fat ata profit. So, also, has the
dairyman his responsibility, that of
knowing his cows do not skirk theirs.
His business is to know what each cow
does; she won't tell, he has to keep in-
dividuai records to find out. They cost
little, they do much.
W. C. T. U. Meeting.
The regular monthly meeting of the
W.C.T.U. will be held in the C.O.F.
