SCOTCH. THRIFT AGAIN
'A Scotchrean wishing to know
his fate at once, telegraphed a pro-
posal of marriage to a.lady of his
choice. After spending the entire day
at the telegraph office, he was finally
rewarded,late in the evening by an
affirmative answer,
"If T were you," suggested the
operator, when he delivered the sties=
sage. "I'd think twice before I'd mar-
ry a girl' that kept me waiting all
day for an answer"
"Na, Na," 'retorted the Scot. "The
lass who -waits for the night rates is
the lassfor me."

A gathering of officials and business
amen of the town and district; tendered
a luncheon at the Motel Sunset to the
inspecting party at which 1,1?e needs of
Goderieh harbor and district were "em
liacized. It
l was pointed out -ley the
various speakers that last year the
grain shipments alone handled
through Goderich harbour. totaled 21
000,000 bushels, or approximately 12,»
000 carloads, with a resultant revenue
to Canadian;railroads of over :$2,000,-.
The attention of the minister was
also drawn to the fact, that if adequate
hanbor facilities were provided and
package freighters run intoGoderich
harbor, considerable traffic iii sale and
various other commodities would rap-
idly spring up both from this ,district
and from inland towns,
:On behalf of the town and district,
Mayor Callow asked for :a complete
developnsdnt o1 the harbor, deepening
of the channel and reconstruction of
the piers and breakwaters, which re-
quest was received sympathetically by
the minister.
Among those present at the lunch-
eon, in addition to Mayor Callow and
thelocal town• officials and business
men were: A. M. Kirkpatrick and C.
G. Steers, assistant engineers' of the
department of public works,'', J. W.

ROBBING AND HOW TO'PRE.
. VENT IT' •
('Experimental Partn Note)
Bees, like some people, if given the
opportunity will sten) from ,one an-
other rather theft work. This, how-
ever, happens, usually only in times of
sanity. ,
td. obiber bee is characterized by its
nervous actions. It will fly cautiously
alt ' ;to, the entrance of a hive, and
wheis'it sees a tee coming towards it
it will quickly dodge back; ,or it will,
search the walls of the hive in the
hope of finding some unguarded crack
through whieh it can crawl. An old
offender has a shiny appearance, the
result of crawling through cracks cr
being roughly handled by the guards.
On leaving the robbed hive, it has e
plump look and unlike tho, inmates
whieh come out leisurely, it' is in a
hurry and takes wing with difficulty
owing to its load
It is the beekeeper's duty, there-
fore, to prevent 'his bees acquiring
such dishonest habits by seeing that
no sweets are left exposed at any
Wile; that all cracks and - opening in
the walls of the hive are closed' with
mud or clay; that when hives are
opened the work be done speedily;
that feeding, if any be done in the
evening; and that entrances be cone
sistent in size with the strength of
the coiony. Should disease be pres-
ent,' these measures are doubly neces-
sary to prevent not only robbing and
its disastrous results, but alto' what
is infinitely worse, the spreading of
the disease
Should robbing start prompt' action
is necessary. Contract the entrance
so that but two" or three bees cab
enter abreast; then strewa handful
'of 'coarse grass over it and sprinkle
with a dipperfbl of water. This
puts the robbers at a.disadvantage,
'
as the bees of 'the colony will attack
tltesn as they crawl through the wet
grass.
Should the robbed' colony, however,
stand in danger of being overcome,
carry it down into the cellar and leave
it there until the uproar subsides,
Coal oil .wiped' over. all junctions of
the hives act as an excellent repellant.

(
Liberal- Conservative picnic at Strat-

&t. floe Athur Meighan, spoke an
his "wonderful best," as a.1sondory
morning paper put 11.
14 Ir. IVIcighan, Hon, . Mr. 'Martin
and Isis'. Hugh Guthrie were the chief
speakers • of the els occasion and over 'a;
score of :members of the Commons
and the Legislature, and even some
members of the Senate, were present
on the platform.
Mr. Ilieighan was given a great
reception. He spoke on the tariff
principally. In part he said:
"In the first place, we are not go-
ing' to
o-ing'to stand beside) any more Scribe
.Hotels or : seek the shelter of any
more million -and -a -half . palaces in
London.'
egoing W are not gng to con-
ciliate reluctant supporters by send-
ing them, on' free trips around the
world at the expense of the people.
In the next, place, we are not going ti,
conceal the debt of the Dominion by
adopting the fake system of guaran-
teeing railway loans and keeping
them out of the debt.
"We are going to tell the people
-just what the facts are, the same as
we told then through the whole nine
yearsof our power.'
"We do propose that the debt of
Canada shall be reduced. The debt
by economy can be reduced, but there
has .to be some moral Muscle behind
the Government that attempts it, and
I do not propose to promise the peo-
ple of this Dominion that the Govern-
ment with
overn-ment`with' moral' muscle : to deny pub-
lic works and1pttblic expenditure in,
order to Teree• reduction is going to,
be universally popular, But.I tell
you in advance these things must be
done.
."Next and what is of more conse-
quence than, all, the Government in-
tends that the policy which Sir John
A . Macdpnald laid down will be .the
policy of Canada. The policy vehich.
Sir 'Wilfrid I;anrier denied --but main-
tained—that will be the policy of this
Dominion, but it Will be the open, pro-
fessed determined policy, and that
policy all men of business and agri-
culture and all those in the Dominion
can rely upon as the settled policy of
Canada. There will be no tinkering
and meddling and mussing with 'the
'tariff. The :tariff structure will he
strengthened where it needs strength-
ening. , It won't ;be strengthened for
the purpose of 'building up a high, ins -
penetrable edifice overwhich imports
cannot come. We do not need a
high tariff in Canada, but we do need
a stable tariff. These are the fun-
damentals of the Conservative faith."
Mr. 'Meighan made it plain, that
the tariff would be the issue in the
next election and he intimated that
it did not matter when. an election
was }held, this year or - later, so fax
e=';the Conservatives were concerned,
they were ready.
It was a great gathering. Many:
attended from Clinton and vicinity
and all report a pledsarit outing.
THE PORTER T00If NO CHANCES
Sir Henry Thornton, the man who
is trying to put the •Canadian National
Railways on a paying basis, domin-
ates any assembly by virtue of his
monumental size, which his excess of
vitality makes all the more striking.
One of his chief characteristics is a
permanent .air of authority which nev.
er fails to impress those who serve
in subordinate positione.
When travelling in the eastern
States on one occasion, long before
he went to England to introduce
railroad efficiency, become a subject
of Ring Georgeand a !belted knight.
Thornton found all births occupied
for the night, except one which was
reserved for a passenger who was to
board the train at three o'clock in
the. morning.
A few' hours sleep being .better
than none at all, Thornton sutmnon-
ed the porter, and in an authorita-
tive manner announced that he must
have that berth until the other pass-
enger •clainielt it. Furthermore, he
gave strict orders that he .must not
to -be awakened -until the. last min -
'ate. Their he told the porter to
shine his shoes, and gave hint a dol-
lar; not too much considering the
shoes were size twelve.
When Thornton awoke in the
morning the sun was shining' bright-
ly, He dressed leisurely, and made
his way to the washroom, where he
found the ,.lsorte • .
"Your three-o'c1oo'lc passenger did-
n't get on after all, their?" asked
.Thornton. ,,•
"Yas stili, he such did suh."
"Did you find high another berth,
or what?" •
"Nossah, duly wasn't no other
berth, and he was a mighty' mad
whit Wan when I iron' tole 'him so,
'too. But Alt showed him' yo' shoes,
cap'n, an' Ah sed:' 'White man, the
gen'man who wears Nese heal boots
3s asieepin' peacefully -in yo' berth.
If you wants to take a chance on
wakin' him you kin, but I ain't a-
gwine to. I ain't c avin' no such ex-
citement as he's suah to set rip,"
He 'Mowed Ah was dead right,
cap'n, and he's a;-sl'eepin' peacefully
in the day coach right dis minute!"
Sir Henry gave the porter another
dollar.
