"DAD, HERE'S TO YOU" "We happened in a home the' other night and over the parlor door saw the legend worked in letters of red, "What is home without a mother." Across the room was another brief, "God bless our home." "Now, what's the matter with "God'bless our dad?" He gets up early, lights the fire, boils an egg, and wipes off the dew of the dawn with his boots while many a mother is sleeping. He makes the weekly hand-out for the blether, the grocer, the milk -man and baker, and his pile badly worn before he has been home an hour. `If there is a noise during the night clad is kicked in the back and made to go down stairs to find the burglar and kill him.

The spring assizes opened at the court house on last week, Chief Jus- tice Sir Glenholme Falconbridge pre- siding. There were seven cases on the docket, but,evidence was taken in only one, that af Flynn v. G T. R. Co. The plain;ti fiin this case is the wi- dow of William Flynn, who was kill- ed on February 2nd, 1912, in the G. T. R. stataors yard at Kincardine, while in the employ of the railway as a sectionmara. It was claimed that while Flynn: was cleaning away ice and snow feoin the railway track, a train was shunted along the track on which Flynn was working, without warning to him, and one of ithe cars passed over, and killed him. Five thousand dollars damages wasielaimed. After the hearing of evidence ' a number of questions were submitted to the jury. In. reply to the feast question, the jury found that theth of Flynn was not caused by negligenesi on the part of the railway company or its servants, and accordingly the the action was dismissed.

For the first year nothing brit tomatoes will be handled ' L. K.

EAT MEAT No man who lives on meat was ever known to lick his wife or ask for n divorce. Adam got into a row right off because he had no hog meat, but- ter oi: black bass. Napoleon lost Waterloo becouse the allied forces had bacon for breakfast the morning of the fight. The French had vegetable soup. No war can be successfully waged without hog meat. Americans are the most frisky peo- ple on earth because they eat the most hog meat. A vegetable diet woman is as cold and clammy and unlovable as a tur nip. If you wish to put roses in the cheeks of your girls, vitality in their every motion, and brains in their heads, feed them meat. If you want your boy to get a job and hold it, go to the front, and amount to something, give him bacon grease, ham fat or tallow, three times a day. The world is full of cranks who are always getting up some new fad about hay soup or corn fodder tea.

LUCAN Mrs. Emily Philips, who claims to come from Port Arthur, Ont. lies at Victoria Hospital in a critical condit- ion, following a dose of carbolic acid and chloroform alleged to have been administered by herself at Central Hotel, Lncan, on Saturday in an att- empt to end her life. She is expected to recover. She is suppored to have arrived at Lucan from Sarnia on Saturday morning on an early train. She explained to the Hotel manager that after a days rest she would pro- ceed upon her journey. Saturday evening, an hotel employ ee who was sent to her room found her uncon- ciotis. He smelt carbolic acid, and found an empty bottle on the dresser. In her hand bag was a bottle con- taiuing what appeared to be laudinum. To the druggist from whom she pur- chased the poison on Saturday, she said her name was Williams. To the physician later she declared her name to be Phillips, and at the hospital here she said she came from Port Arthur. It is believed that she took the acid through a macaroni tube and this. is supposedto have saved her life, the pasty substance absorbing a large quantity of the poison: Magistrate Hawkshaw ordered her remanded for one week that she might be to taken London for treatment at the hospital.
