IMPORTANT NOTICE
Re Hydro
TO facilitate in wiring the streets for Hydro it le very
necessary that Council should know at once who ineend
wiring their houaes (if not already wired,) Those who
do should leave their name with Clerk A. 11, Macdonald or
Reeve Baeker.
It is also important that those who propose putting in
Electric Ranges before Hydro comae should inform Clerk or
Reeve also. Brussels Stove rate compares favorably, and in
some cases is cheaper than such places as Wingham, Kincar-
dine, Listowel, Seaforth and Goderich.
If yintend putting inan is Range
n u Electtr a o and do not let
youP gK

ing a remarkable full grown white,
deer..- How this deer escaped detec-
tion, and consequent killing such
a long time. while living within
rifle range of habitations is hard
understand. He lived on the high-
est mountain at Val des Reis. A
natural background of white birth
undoubtedly made him invisible to
the hunter who could not get close
to him. Once snow fell, his worries
were over es he must have become
practically invisible on account of
his snow-white color. Not a black
or colored hair could be found on
his body, even the eyes, muzzle and
hoofs being either white or pink.
,"Mr. Larivee first saw the deer us
a strange or new white patch on
the aide of , the mountain. Upon
examination through field glasses
he perceived that it was a white
deer. He had seen two specimens
before, mounted by the ow..era, aLd
his joy sae easily be imagined. He

'which I climbed by holding on to
shrubbery, cracks and small pro-
Jectlons of rock, by hand and feet
(my rifle—A,22 H.P. Savage, lever

Reaching the top after an hour and
a quarter climb, I made a wide
circle and came back to the edge,.
I could see -the deer laying down

tangled branchy mass that I knew
the oma11bore rifle was incapable
of penetrating, so I decided on again
circling, Thus time I came out at
a point where I could not see him
