This week M. Henry delivered a load
of flour to Seaforth, 1 to Blyth, 1 to
Wroxeter and one to Atwood. Mr.
Henry also reoeived a oar of of No. 1
Manitoba bard wheat. This is a good
starter for the new proprietor of our
grist mill. We hope the poop's of tbe
village will show that they appreciate
having a mill that is doing the work
wbiob our mill 1e doing, by giving it the
support, and the patronage which it
deserves. The following are flguree
which will probably prove interesting to
those wbo have not bed an opportunity
of obtaining a .knowledge of what the
mill baa o,ee doing for the pant few
years. In one week the °bopping of
grain alone was 8,420 bu+here; thte re-
presents more than 18 000 boehele per
month, or in one year the cboppioe
alone amounts to about 160,000 hnebel. of
grain ; this represente about 8,000 teams
driving into the village in one year. Mr.
Freeman, the miller, is also making flour
of very highest standard qnality. Since
opening an a000nnt fu Seaforth a 'Mort
time ago the people of that town have
shown that they eppreofate a good artio!e
in the very feat that they have aeed more
than five hundred thousand pounds of
the tamoae Brand A 1 which has been
sold In the town of Seaforth by H.Liveoe.
Mr. Hoary is oertainly to be congratulated
in-seouring the eervie,e of 1'. F. Freeman
who is thoroughly capable of turning out

IT le rather remarkable that so mealy

in the nuooeoa of the energetic Japanese
who ar,.lIghttng a tyranntual power for

some eympatheti0 (1) powers were very
nuwiulug to attempt to put a atop to the

Tem etrennons life is lived in Hamilton
bat eometimee the forme it takes are
hardly iu keeping with whet might be
termed "the correot thing." Iu Stinson
street eohool Master Byron administered
the blue beech or the "oat" in too lenge
doses to the eon of a fond mamma and
with fire in her eye ehe armed herself
with a revolver and went to iuterview
Mr. Byron, He might well have quoted
the poetry of hie namesake about "Hie
days being in the yellow leaf, &o" when
he saw his ioterrogator bat be deolined
to surrender. Au apology by the tender
hearted parent and a promise by "John.
uie" 10 be a good boy has brought the
threatened onslaught to an amicable
adjaatmeut. We wonder whether Mr.
Bryon would have found it safer to eland
or run if the firearm bad bean brought
into action 1 Beoaue° a woman Can't
throw straight it does not follow that she
might not be able to put windows in your

After this, before any school teacher
attempts to punish an unruly 90311 they
should see that their insurance and
eooide0t polioiee are in good repair and
not neglect to wenn sheet iron lining to
their vest ,or waist. Even if the X rays
