Comment on Statute Labor With Bentick and Artenaesia rate- payers voting down a proposal to re- turn to the statute labor system of doing .road -work, and with such a move hardly countenanced in Brant. and Normanby townships, it does ap- pear as if "the old has given place to the new'•' and that statute labor is dead. Yet those who have their ear to the ground may discern heavy rumblings ; of , discontent with the ntanner in which the present system is administered. It has brought ef- ficiency -trucks are being . used to haul gravel instead of the more ex- pensive teams -gravel is being used from fewer and better pits -and few- er men are getting the "road money." It takes some time for the ratepayers to get away from old habits and cus- toms ,but modern methods are win- ning out in the townships as they have 'everywhere else. After all, it is almost impossible to argue against a system that does the work better and at lower cost. -Hanover Post.

BEWARE OF THIS MALADY Forbus Sabaticus, orun d S day sick ness is a disease to which church- goers are subject, says an exchange, and the attack comes on suddenly on Sunday morning.,, No symptoms are felt on Saturday evening. The pat- ient sleeps well, and eats a hearty. breakfast, but about church -time' the attack comes on and continues until morning services are over. At din- ner time the patient feels easier and eats a good meal. In the afternoon he feels so much better that he can take a walk, talk politics and read" newspapers. Stepper is taken with quite a relish, but another attack comes on when the bell rings for the evening services, and he stays at home, retires early to rest, sleeps soundly, and wakes up next morning as well as can be, No further symp- toms appear until the following Sun- day. The chief peculiarities of Mar-, bus Sabbaticus are: Never appear ex - coot on Sunday; symptoms vary, but never affect sleep, meals or pleasure; generally attacks the head of the fam- ily, no physician is ever called in,.

At the beginning of the fur trade, the Indian traded his skins for beads, knives, tonio.ltawks; and later on, rifles,• amatnition and supplies were added to the hatter, Theti the white trapper came upon' the scene and he traded for money and supplies. The trapper, in some remote districts, still carries on his trade much as his predecessors did, but in the more settled parts of the country 1trade co y t ie in certain furs has become more domesticated and to- day fur farming is conducted on an extensive Scale.

This is a new and definite advantage to the tire us- er. Dealers are now selling tires un- der the new guarantee and motorists are warned that a certificate should be obtained witheach new tire. The new guarantee covers, also, tires sold as equipment on new passenger cars to be used in private service. Leading tire manufacturers believe the new warranty will result in more satisfactory automobile service •thru the elimination of disputes and the boardened :coverage of the warranty.
