In his writings one finds these linea of solid business truth : A laugh is worth a hundred groans in any market. Have a smile for all, a pleasant word for everybody. To succeed, work hard, earnestly and incessantly. All honest men will•bear watching. It is the rascal who cannot stand it. Better have the window emp'y than filled with unreasonable and unattractive goods. When yon hang a sign outside your place of business, let it be original in de- sign and of good quality. Wonderoue is the strength of Cheerful- ness ; altogether - past calculation its power of enduranoo. Efforts to be per• manantly needful meet be uniformly Joy- ous, a spirit of sunshine, graceful from very gladness, beautiful because bright. ONE HUNDRED YEARS AGO. Beef and pork, salt fish, potatoes and hominy were the staple diet all the year round. , The mail of the whole country did not equal that of a single, second-rate office now. • The only shoes were stout contrivances of strong hide, with wooden page or hob• nails. There were no pianos ; the ladies of musical talent played on the epinnet or h arpaichord. Buttons were scarce and expensive, and the trousers were fastened with pegs or laces. The only recognized method of impart- ing information was by the liberal use of the rod. All the population of a village assembl ed at the inn on "poet' day" to bear the news. There were no threshing machines. Wheat was threshed cut on the barn floor with finite. The women's dresses were puffed with hoops and stood out two or three feet on each side. A. fever patient was forbidden to drink water and smallpox was treated in a dark room. Cnrrr[I,dtstxx New:ric. Drumbo is suffering from a scarcity of dwelling houses. The Quebec Legislature was prorogued on Saturday evening. Mrs. Joseph J°roux, of Ottawa, was found burned to death in her house. The police commissioners of Hamilton have asked for the resignation of Chief McKinnon. Charles Dayworker, of North Pelham, died from blood•poisoning, the result of a horse's bite. Roberti r7.agyard, of London West, was ]tilled by a G. T. R. express while driving aorosa the line at HydePark. James A. Oantlie has been elected President of the Montreal Board of Trade.

It is said in Ottawa that the arrange- ment between the Government and the Manitoba delegation in reference to the Hudson Bay railway was that the Gov- ernment would aid the undertaking to the extent of 36,000 a mile, and take a security therefor all the rolling stock of the line when equipped, and a first lien upon the 276 miles of the road. It is said the oontraotora agree to build the line on these terms. It is also slated that Sir John Thompson insisted on the pro- moters and their friends furnishing a million dollars on their own behalf be- fore the Goverment would do anything.

After a full dig. mission of the present situation in con- nection with the two recent fires, it ep- peered' that the inanranoe companies .would be called upon to pay loedes to the extent of very nearly one million dollars, which ie equal to about one.sixth of the net income in Canada of all companies doing badness in 613e Dominion. This lose to the companies is quite independ- ent of the half million of dollars that the public will lose in exoess of the insur- ance. It was pointed out that the great- er part of these losses might , have been averted if the city authorities had paid any bead to the frequent warnings, not only of the fire underwriters during the past two years, but also of the Chief of the Fire Brigade and the City Engineer. Definite notion was batten in the mat. ter of increasing rates on all buildings over three stories. SHOT WHILE Pox HONTINO.—A very de- plorable accident happened about five miles from Plesberton on Tuesday fore- noon by which a gentleman named John Little, whose borne is near Hanover, was almost instantly killed. Mr. Little had been visiting with Jae. Fisher, who is related to him, and on Tuesday forenoon he and Jae.' Sam. and Robert Fisher went oat for a fox bunt. Mr. Little took the dogs and separated from the rest, intending to start the fox. Se had only been a short time away when two reports were beard in quick anocee- sion and at the same time a 0rv. The three men dropped their gone and follow- ed Mr. Little's track, when he was dis- covered lying on the ground, dead, both charges of the gun having taken effect in the leg abnntsix inches above the knee and following the bone into the abdomen, The cartridges were loaded with B.

Stumbling over a root the gan was thrown aheadof him and discharged with the result stet. ed. The unfortunate man did not live until his oompanioos reached him. The body was taken to Jae. Fisher's red - denim and the sad news telephoned to his family. Deceased was a man of about 50 years of age and lessee a family of ten, mostly grown np. He was a 'him or rolled on the ground on the spot brother-in-law to J. G. Little, of Ware - till the trapper oame and finished him. ham. This fall so far the man has secured 14 bears in this manner. The Galt 'Reporter ssye :—There are lying beforeus some dried maple leaves, gathered by Mrs. Wm. Maude on the farm of her brother, Mr. McAllister, near Puslinch Lake, which certainly are by far the largest we have ever seen. Hap. peeing, but ton late, to see that there was a diffioulty in obtaining maple leayse to form Canada's wreath to place upon the coffin of our late Premier, Sir John Thompson, Mrs. Maude examined her store of those she had at various times gathered and pressed, and found among many others' those grand specimens. Too late to offer them.- for the purpose first designed, their extraordinary size was noted as something most unusual and worth attention. The largest, others are but very little smaller, measures folly 0 inches aoroes by 19 in length. They have not the colouring the maple leaf obtains through frost, but In every other particular are perfect. For some considerable time past the firm of Messrs. Hardy, Wilkes dr Hardy, of Brantford, have bad occasion to sus• peat that their law office in that olby wee being entered at nights, their vaults opened and sundry some of moneyend papers removed therefrom. Chief Vau. gban at once detailed Constable Wallace for the work, and for some weeks he has on occasional nights hidden himself in the office awaiting results. Friday even- ing Constable Wallace tools his station in it corner of the front office, and shortly after 8 o'clook he heard footsteps around the rear part of the building. The in- truder made his way into the cellar un. derneatb the mein office, and after re. maining there a ehort time he began• climbing up a ladder and emerged from a trap door to the main hall' in the rear of the building. When once in the bank office he made his way to the front room where the vault was. As the burglar entered the roam the constable stole be- hind the stove. The man walked to- wards the vault with a key in his hand. The officer jumped forward and seized him, and to hie surprise discovered the man to be Charles Elliott, barrister -at - law, now practising in St. George, having tome from Toronto, where some six months ago he passed hisAnalexamine- tion as a leweer, After a short scale Constable Wallace handcuffed Elliott and took him to the polies elation. Elliott made only a brief resistance. Hitherto the accused roan has borne a good char- acter.

There is mach suffering from lack of food and clothing among the old pinery dietriots of `Michigan. On account of the natural poverty of the soil, it is all the people can do to sustain life in the moat flourishing. times and under the most favorable. conditions. Though few people will starve outright, laok of euf- fioienefood and clothing will be respon- sible for many deaths before warm weather comes. In some parts of Muskegon and Ottawa, counties the regularly constituted, authorities have already announced themselves unable to furnish. even temporary relief to the destitute. The supervisor of Spring Lake township in which the village of thegame name. ie located, says that many families in his township must have aid from the oharitably disposed to oarry them through the winter, or die from want of the necessaries of life. With the limited amount at bis disposal, he can out brit a sorry figure in relieving those that apply to him that must have aid. A similar oondition of things exists in some parte of Grand Haven township, that joins the city. . . iT 1S Worth Knowing THAT A Vrtiiite Stix, Line. ROYAL 06A l l4 S'I'R AMSll 1l'9.
