B. i o �°i� and Thompson of Llin}a t Wz ah l, Joe a 1 Hanna of ' Gey township; created a little sensation in Listowel this week when they arrived hack from the wilds of the Bryce peninsula, with two black bears and, other ,game in their car. It's no fake story. They had the bears alright, and for lasting proof, Photographer Russel snapped the trio with the goods on them. According to reports, the hunters .had a very interesting time and found bear hunting more than a lit- tle :exciting. It just took ten shots, they state, to finish the larger one of the two bears brought home, and this weighed about three hundred and twenty-five pounds, Their headquarters was in the vicinity of Stokes Bay, and the bears were located in a dense swamp where the hunters had to almost burrow their way through the undergrowth. They has two dogs along, and the first day of the hunt these were in combat with a porcupine, which so filled them with quills that; it required much' labor with a pair of plyers from the car to remove them. Mr. Joe Hanna, a hunter of wide, experience, with a dog of Collie and Spaniel cross, well trained for gen- eral, hunting, trailed the first ,bear. Two others were encountered short- ly after and the experience of the hunters was unusually thrilling. The dogs were wary but not afraid to at- tack, and assisted materially. According. to one member of : the party,it's .rathe r peculiar sensation one gets when an angry bear keeps on coining and pays noattention to your shooting. Shot number ten, this time through the :ear, was fir- ed, he said, before the first bear was despatched, shoota bear on the fore- head and it only makes „ him mad. The brain and the heart is small and hard to locate, he says. 2 itt •same hunter advises f ter it is shot. pet a bear too soon. of Better allow five minutes for it„ to die, he says. One of the party didn't follow these instructions and' as a result received 'a big rent in his sweat- er coat. Theedogs were as tired as .the hunt- ers and at night .paid; no attention to rats which ran aboutthe shack. 'Thompson was one of a party who were up the peninsula•,, last year and brought home a large. bear. • returned home. - Chester`- Longman, 1121, and Mr's.

He sees the land in need of labor, yet each man' leaves at to his neighbor. Why does the painter seem to tire, why does that potent pigment plyer restrain his art, which all admire? Why does the builder drop his ham- mer and cease to function as a slam - mer? It's .getting so I dare not stop within the barber's fragrant shop, lest, when the union hours are gone, 'I'll still have half my whiskers on, Why should the mason stay his licks when he has Laid so many bricks? Why not work on till night is black' and maybe finish up the shack? Then when his energy he's shown us, he should re- ceive a goodly bonus. We've left be- hind the simple way, that so much work earned so much pay. The farm- er is arm-er'is the only goof from regulated hoursaloof, except that I still rise at night these Rural Rhymes to indite. To bring my weekly stint to pass 1 burn expensive midnight gas.

J. Ross, Wm inglna; received a letter from Chicago a few days ago, in which he found a money order for 50 cents. The man Who sent it owed it to Mr. Ross for long time, but his conscience has been troubling him, about it since he joined the Salvation Army,- and hejust had to send the money in order to square himself. Her Hearing Restored to Her Since the robbery of her, ,jewelry store in Clifford, a peculiar circum- stance has bccured in the case of Mit. Wendt. For many years`. back she has been troubled with deafness causing her much discomfort. Supp- osedly an aftermath of the excite- ment caused by the robbery,her hearing has been .restored to normal. The new joyous condition acts as one solace to the other exceedingly seri- ous blow. How to Live a Good Life - Be kind to everyone. .Do your level best. Be courtteous to all; Hear before judging. Think before speaking. Be generous to an enemy. Stand by your principles. Stop your ears to gossip. Be .honest in allyour dealings. Do these things and you will live a useful life. MEMORIES How often, when the eventide Has closed the Book of Day, I walk, in fancy, with the boy Who sleeps so far away; I. clasp again his little hand Confidently, in mine, I know that in his love for me There is a spark divine. I see the bloom of manhood glow Within his steadfast eyes, 1 watch the progress of his soul The birth of enterprise. I know that soon the world will call My boy to do, his part, I know that I shall always hold A place within his heart. Once more I hear the bugle call, I see his face alight With quick desire to take the field In battle for the right. "Somewhere in France" he sleeps, but oh! My watch shall never cease Until the dawn of that great morn Of everlasting peace. - Quick thinking and a disposition to help others, displayed by two Boy Scoots yesterday afternoon, prevent- ed what would have turned out to be a serious : accident, on the steep and circuitous road that winds .past the Old Mill. The two Scouts were sauntering up the hill, probably . pondering what their good deeds for the day should be when they noticed an automobile backing down the roadway. The car was filled with people and obviously beyond control. The tires would not. grip on the slippery pavement. There was danger of the automobile party being precipitated into a dangerous gully at the side of the road. With alacrity the two Scouts ob- tained stones and other handy impedi- ments from the side of the road and cast them infront of the skidding wheels, enabling the driver to bring his car to a stop. -Toronto Globe.

This will permit of . the in- auguration next year of the scheme of collecting the taxes twice a year. Kincardine should hook into the tax collecting system and see if their idea couldn't be made a little easier, As it is now the people are forced to pay out a great deal of money just at the end of the year when the Christmas season 'iscoming on and they have to feel the pinch somewhere. . The twice a year system certainly has better ad- vantages and if the Kincardine Coun- cil doing a cit adopted it they would be n g thing popular with the, people, -Kin- cardine Reporter.

Suspecting that the cattle had been Stolen, he got the !splice 'on the case,and last' Saturday night informed thahis cawas cattle g he had been. sold on the 13ttffalo market that day. The cattle had been taken from the., field and shipped to the American side, but Mr, Malcolm's brand was sufficient to identify the 'annuals. Richard Portice, who appeared court a few months ago In tonnec- tion with the theft of a violin, was auapected of the theft of the cattle, and he was placed under attest by Chief Farrell of 1 incardine, It seems that Portice sold the tattle to John Harris brother of Thorntas Har- loose ,on the barrun so, I 'got a ham- mer an some nails an -fastened thins laces Thin: 1. got the Uac:x in tltcCr p, o-- --- stretcher out av the droivin house an toightened up some woire on the fince.
