The turmoil of the past year is 00 doubt telling on the old gentleman. Mo. WnITNEX, leader of the Opposition forme to the Local Legislature, its wand. lug the tocsin in-aonneation with outlin- ing a oampalgn for the neat Provincial elections. AN effort is being made to eetablieb a line of ice breaking boats on the river St; Lawrenoe that would permit of Winter navigation. Ib is a big scheme and if successful would mean a genuine boom to Montreal and Quebec, TEE London Free Press (Conservative) says : It is currently reported that Dr. MoDonald, the well-known M. P., for East Huron, will be appointed Deputy Speaker in the Commons, suooeading Mr. Brodeur wbo will be voted to the Speaker's obair. The Dr. will fill the bill to a T. THE slow poke town of Goderiob really gave a majority on Jan. 7th for an anti- run.at.large oow Bylaw. Some of the people of that town are already wonder- ing if the By-law can ever be enforced, as so many people love "the poor man's oow." It they have it really bad a small contribution of gold oash would soon pro- vide pasturage for these poverty stricken oow ownere. Wren thousands of dollars invested in granolithic walks and the fact that the m •et of the sidewalks are outside the shade trees and "geb-at•able" with a snow plow, a Bylaw should be palmed making it compulsory to keep the walks clear of snow. In a number of tame the prop- erty owners have until 9 a, m. to do this atter a snow fall and then a man is pot on who does the work and the delinquent in addition to paying the expense in- curred ie fined ae well. Other places have corporation snow plow, run by a town employee, a rate being etruok on the tax colleotore: roll to meet the ex- pense, which is trifling ae the plow might not be required more than a dozen timee in a winter, Sometimes the snow plow- ing is let by tender to the lowest bidder and paid for by the town. However the work is done it is a matter that should be attended to. Two young men of this town were fined before A.. Hunter, J, P„ for asking for liquor at a Hotel during prohibitory hours. License Inspeotor Miller laid the information end will "pinch" some others if the business is attempted again. There may be a ease tested ae to the Bale of cigarettes to minors as the law is oaid to be openly violated by both sellers and bnyere. It is no nse to be mealy. mouthed about these offenses ae many a heartache ae well ae a headache are oo- oasoned by the above mentioned trans- gressions. If young people would occas- ionally ooneider the feelings of the "home guard" many a foolish action would never obour and if fathers would think bow their unworthy example 0a0Be0 a blight upon their eons and daughters they would adopt 8 very different course along the line of morals. The opening of the 20th century should be a good time to brace up and thereby givepractical help to developing the good fa the youth of our land. Gonzelcn, Hallett and Culross town. ships in this section of the country voted on the question of abolishing statute labor and deoided to stay with the system already in vogue. Several municipalities in other notions of the Province have a- greed;lo commute however and will go in for a low assessment iaetead of doing the work as at present. Whether one or the other fe decided npon the agitation is care to do good and more attention will have to be paid to this department of munioipai work than ever has been. Ratepayers will see that both Councils and Pabbmastere adopt modern methods and thereby the same end will be attain• ed. At Morris townohip nomination Jae. Bolger scored a bull's eye when he called attention to the stern neeeeeity of every road -beat having a atone hammer to break up the coarse stone. Milan this is dons these rooks are a thousand timee better left in the pit. Road goading machines soon pay for themselves in the saving of gravel, for unless the road bed is well graded up and proper drainage arranged for, it is almost• throwing money away to put on gravel with any expectation of permanency. In another column this week we give an outline of a new pro• poeal'regarding road making that would teeolUbionize old methods if adopted. Blown To atone. The old idea that the body sometimee needs a powerful, draebie, purgative pill has been exploded ; for Dr. Ring's New Life Pills, which are perfectly hermieee, gently etfmalate liver and bowels to expel poleonoud matter, cleanse the.eyetem and ab001010lyeuro constipation and idols headache.

On a reoent Sunday a gentleman viei. for at a certain home went to put his horse in the stable when a calf got in the way. The host, to bead it off, gave it a tap on the head and the young bovine went suddenly to oalfdnm. As it was in good order the animal watt bled ; the hide removed and first•olaes veal was on the bill of fare. It looks likes repetition of a former event when the fatted calf was killed.
