The first two innings were pitched by F. Moore of Blyth who did exceptionally well as a beginner throwinga good ball but it lacked force. ith practice he will greatly improve. Dick Taker d'd the twirling for Clinton and he is either going back badly or didn't try to twirl as the class of pitching he produced here was not as 'spicy" as en former occasions and had he not had excellent support the result would doubtless have been changed. The score at the finish of seven innings was 4-0 in the favor of Clinton, when called on account of darkness, It was a good game from a spectator's point of view, would have been somewhat, more interesting had the home boys been able .to have made a few runs, The batteries were Tasker and Weir for the winners and Telford and Sturt for Blyth. Both pitchers struck out six men. lion sidering the state of the weather there was a good attendance which should encouraged the sport. "Riley" Jbhnson and Tommy Hawkins of the Clinton team should be pretty near retiring from the game for they have figured on the diamond for many years, but we persume it is hard to pick up their equal about Clinton. Births, Marriages & Deaths Rules of The RDad, The Weekly Guide published alt Port Hope, is justly angry ,because many drivers, noit only automobiles but lof horses, neglect to obey the rules of the road: In an article of pro:Seat this section of the munici- pal act is given; R, S. 0„ C' hap. 326, See. 1- "High- .wiays,"provides that all horses and vehicles shall turn Bothe right in mcleltir!J lathers and give half the, road. Sec, 2, provides in case of a rig being ove:(tlaken by one tr•aveli'ing ata greater speed "the person sia. overtaken shall quietly turn out to the right, allow the said vehicle or horseman to pass" (to the left of course.) Many accidents result because of oarlessniess, ignorance of the rules and wilful, neglect of the drivers. In Clinton frequefnt cases of drivers turning to the wrong side of the stalest, have been fortunate- ly unattended by accident. Section two gives a new interpre- tation to nterpre-tation'to the road rules governing are: -A company (Goderich), Capt. the passing p1 one vehicle by an - Dunlop. Lieuts, Nisbet and F.

This is wrong from a standpoint of common decency and istnow an of- fence against the law. Magistrate COi'e,n, of Toronto, gave noltic,e, in his court that the road rules must be obeyed.

Don't get the idea that the tuture prosperity of a town rests with a few, for it is the business of the many. Above all, don't criticise those who are building up the and do nothing yourself. coThey at least have the pro- per o -per spirit, and just as long as you deny them your support, just that much harder their work will be, Be a booster for your own town and lend your co-operation to those who had the nerve to start first. It is never too early to start and it is never too late to begin, One good fea(tureof Andrew Car- negie, :the Scottish millionaire, is that his munificent gifts are gen- erally well directed in the Abject and purpose. Recently he present- ed "The Oak," .the journal whose chief feature is the world's Peace, with $25,000 to aid in the extension of its mission. This Pea -e question is a live one today and Mr. Carneg- ieis'tiaking a good course to pro- mote it viz, Publicity. One Way :toward lessening pre- sent day trouble over negotiating municipal loans is the suggestion of a Provincial Advisory Board on whose 'authority thegovernment would guiarantrie the bonds and the lo'ans financed with big com- panies or mon'ed men.

THERE $ are sev- eral spe• ev- eralspe• 4 cies of flies which are x commonly 3 tjfound in 1 horses. But one of these S' is the house- fly proper as • we know it. • . This is a me- dium sized grayish fly, with its mouth parts spread at the top for sucking up s„ - liquid sub. stances. Be - 6 n°"" cause of the conformation of its mouth the o housefly cannot bite. In the minds of most persons, how- ever, no impression is stronger than that the housefly does oc- casionally bite. This impression is due to the,:• rather frequent presence in houses of another fly. This, the so called "stable' fly," closely resembles the house. fly. Its mouth parts are formed for piercing skin. Virtually all files breed, in horse manure, cow. manure and,warm, decaying. vegetable matter, including old straw and grass. The fly begins life as an egg. It passes through the larval stage, where it is known as a maggot: It passes then through the pliepal stage, emerging as the winged pest we all know. The periods of development are - about as, follows: Eggs from deposition to hatching, one- third of a ,day; hatching of lar- vae to first molt, one day; first to second molt, one days second molt to pupation, three; , days; pupation to issuing of adult, five days; total life round,"ap proximately ten days. The eggs are always laid on some organic matter, on which the larvae or maggots may feed after hatching. "Horse manure is the favorite breeding place for, the fly. 0 0 00 0 0 Hot Weather COMFORTS Talcum Powder Tod I efts 'Water, Ree al 1 Shamtpplol Ftorid'a Wartier Ts il.sltl Soap Sponges, Path Mitts Foot' Powder Poet' Rath Tablets, • RexallBeetIron & Wine , The Pest Summer Tonic.
