American Chemical Oo's salt block on
Sunday was responsible fox the
appearance in the police court on
Monday of Mike Stapleton and Jnsepb
Kennedy, each of whom was fiord $20
and coat?, pleading guilty to the
charge. In the absence of Police
Magistrate Kelley,the Mayor occupied
the bench. Town solicitor Garrow
examined the men ae to where the
liquor • came from and the Crown
attorney ' also watched the case,
Neither Stapleton nor Kennedy would
oe could tell where the whiskey came
from, Stapietou presented a very
much battered appearance in court.
His face was patched up in the three
places arid his left eye was encircled in
a black ring. While lid wags' iyiug his
eviden;:e the perepiristion was dripping
off his face, Kennedy was in much
better shape. Each of them mentioned
several names of others who were
in the party and both denied going to
the spot with any knowledge that
there would be whiskey to be had or
that o hero Would he there, James
Black and patriek Kennedy (brother
,of Joseph Kennedy,) each asked the
others Co drink and there were three
bottles of whiskey and all drank
pretty freely. The carousal apparent-
ly stertcd ip the morning and lasted

who according to the story told in

The Red Cross
It must not las forgotten that a
'great many of our Canadian soldiers
are from Quebec and do not speak a
word of English. Lying dangerously
near death in an English hospital with
nobody near them with whom to con-
verse, they are truly in a deplorable
condition. The ladies of the Quebec
Red Cross have put themselves in
touch with their French Canadian
compatriots and some of the letters
they have received are not far from
pathetic,
"Dear Madam" writes one soldier
from a London a hospital, "I received
your letter this morning and it gave
me infinite pleasure especially since
you write in French for I can read
English only with the greatest diffi-
culty. You ask me whether I 'need
anything. All that I need is that you
write me again,"
Another says in reply to a lady, who
wrote to him, "Pardon me if I have
not answered immediately. I have
been very Ill and cannot sit up in bed.
I cannot write with my night band and
it is with great difficulty I write this
with my left. I am very happy to
have news from a French Canadian
lady. If only I were) with you we
could talk together. I do not speak a
word of English and I am the only
Canadian in this hospital." Such be-
ing the case with a good many Canad-
ian soldiers our French Canadian vied
Cross workers are indeed, to be con-
gratulated for their charitable enter-
prise in wilting to the wounded.
A great m.jority of the Red Cross
branches in Canada have been organ-
ized since the beginning of the, war.
A cursory inspectloh ef. the annual re-
ports whiish ire available show a rt -
cord of Red ftiroes achiever/rnt which
is not confined to any one section of
the country but extends over all the

The Iast monthly report of the Hali-
fax branch records recent contribut•
ions of $5,500 and, addition to the mem-
bership of 71 active members and 14
life members. During the month
shipments were made of nearly 120
hales,
An idea of the expansion of the
work in Montreal can be gathered
from the report of the surgical depart
rnent. Last January the shipments
were 15 cases each containing 50 dres-
sings. Last month 137 were sent to
the Red Cross hospitals over seas.
The 'Victoria branch in British Col
umbia has collected over $20,000 since
its inauguration, $11,300 of which has
been sent to the Head Offices of the

expended for materials made up by
local workers. Taking other contri-
butions into consideration it is esti-
mated by officials o f the Victoria

How the Bangers of Fire May
He Minimized.
The season le feet approaching when
Cool evenings will demand the starting
of fires in our homes. September end
October have become known to fire-
men as the months when chimneys
and flues cause the most trouble,.
The following suggestions of a prac-
tical nature, if faithfully followed, will
da much to prevent damage to pro-
perty and loss of Me,
STOVES—Place a metal stove -board
on the wood floor nadir the stove,
and extending at least twelve inches
in front of the ash pit door. Protect
all walls and partitions within two
feet of any stove with a metal shield,
leaving an air -space between the
shield and the wall, Leave no kind-
ling or other wood in the oven over
night. Do not Mang clothes too near
the stove or stovepipes.
PIPES—See that the lengths of
stovepipe are well fitted together, free
from rust holes and parted seams,
wired firmly and fitted perfectly into
the chimney. Stovepipes passing
partitions, wane, flocrs, attics and
roofs, are dangerous at best. Where
these must pass through partitione,
walls or floor always use a large ven-
tilated double thimble. You should
examine the stovepipes in the attic.
They may come apart or rust. Fluff
and spider webs are likely to gather
on and around them to be set on fire
when you least expect it,
CHIMNEYS—Ohirnneys should he
built from the ground up, and never
rest on wood supports. The settling
of the woodwork will cause cracks in
the chimney. Nor should the chim-
ney walls be used to support joints or
other woodwork, Soft brick and poor
mortar are often responsible for de-
fects in the chimney. Use a good
quality brick and cement mortar.
Chimney walls should be at least eight
inches thick, the flue of ample size and
lined with fire clay or terra cotta.
Never stuff up the flue holes with rags
or paper, nor cover them with any-
thing but a metal stock. Chimneys
should be cleaned frequently.
FURNACES—Protect all woodwork
above and around boilers, if within
three feet, with a metal shield, also all
woodwork, near furnace pipes. It is
hest to rivit the lengths of pipe to-
gether to prevent disjointing, The
pipe should fit perfectly into the chim-
ney. Examine the pipe frequently
for rust holes or other defects. Keep
them free from dust, fluff and spider
webs, which are easily ignited.
DEFECTS—Defective stoves, boil-
ers, furnaces, pipes and chimneys
should be promptly repaired or re-
placed.
OVERHEATING—Beware of over,
heating stoves, boilers, furnaces or
pipes.
ASHES—These should never be
placed in wooden receptacles or blew
on wood floors or against wood par.
titione, walls, fences, buildings or any
other woodwork. Use metal recep-
tacles only, and dump ashes away
from all buildings.
DARE --These matters are technical,
but veru simple and merely call for
ordinary care. You cannot Afford to
be careless, when the lives of your
loved ones, and the property of your -
sell and neighbours. are at stake.
Let "pare and Caution" be the watch-
word and in this way assist in reduq,

An Essay on The Editor
A lithe boy in town was asked by his
father to write an essay on editors and
here is the result: I don't know how
newspapers come to be in the World. I
don't think God does, for ho ain't got
nothing to say about them and editors
in the Bible. I think he is one of the
missing nuke you read of and stayed
in the bushes until after the flood and
then Dame out and wrote the thing up,
and has been here ever Since. I don't
think he ever dies; I never saw a dead
one and never heard of one being lick'
ed. Our paper is a mighty good one,
paw ain't paid his subscription since
the paper started. Ti asked paw if that
was why the editor had to suck the
Mae out of, the Snowballs in winter
and had to go to bed when he had a
shirt waehed in summer. And then
paw took nee out into the woodshed
and he licked me awful hard. If the
editor makes a mistake folks say ha
Ought to behangs bet if a doctor
makes a mistakes be buries it' ran.
people dassent say ar.y'biug LLcause
doctors read and write Latin. When an
editor makes a nietake 'there aro law-
suits, and a big fuss; but if a doctor
tinaket one there is a funeral, out flow -
ere a, perfect silence. If the doctor
goes to see an other man's wife he
charges for the *lett but if the editor
goes he gets a charge of buekshof-.
When a doctor gets drunk it's a case
of being everc

and
if he dies it's heart trouble; When an
editor gets drank ltza a ease of too

The Law Re Subscriptions
The following question and answer
appeared in the Legal Column of the
Mail and Empire lately:—
Question—My subscription to a pap-
er which I have been taking expired in
February last. The publishers have
been sending it regularly ever since.
They have notified me to [pay for the
coming year, (1) Can I be compelled
to do so? (2) May I relieve myself
from further liability by notifying the
publishers to stop sending me the
paper •? -
Answer—(1) Where a newspaper ie
regularly mailed to subscriber after
the term of his subscription has ex»
pired, and the subscriber regularly
takes the paper from the post office
(or if it is delived to his home) doesn't
notify publisher to discontinue send-
ing it, generally speaking an implied
contract is thereby created, rendering
the subscriber liable for another year's
subscription, When a person excepte
an article, which is sent to him, know,
ing that it is not sent free, in other
words, knowing that it is not a gift,
there is an implied promise on the
part of the person who accepts the
article to pay for it. (2) You may re-
lieve yourself from further liability by
notifying the publieher not to contin-
ue sending the paper to von after the
expiration of the current year if your
paper is paid in advance.
