PUBLISHED BY E ZELLER +,n FRIDAY, FEB. 25th, 1910 The proposition to have the as- sessment act amended so as to al. low any municipality to adopt by majority vote a higher rate of taxa- tion on land than on buildings, will come before the present ses sion of the Legislature shortly and as seven or eight of the municipali- ties in this County, including this Township, have sent in petitions favoring the change, it is hoped that the Provincial legislators will pass the measure. The present method of taxing property really puts a fine on the man who im- proves his holdings, while the speculator in vacant lots and un- improved farms reaps the benefit of his neighbor's industry. This is unfair to the thrifty individual and the change, we believe would benefit every mnnicipalityadoptin_r it. The act if passed, is not a, man- date, but is in the nature of "local option." as to the method of rais ing the municipal taxes. CDR. P. A.

Yot Helen was not without some solitude from this contact of her son with one so wholly of the fashionable world as was Keith Weswick. Her fear was soon allayed.

So he went to the shop and picked out a couple, one of which was cheap, end the other very expensive. Upon these he changed the price tickets, putting the cheap price mark on the expensive muff, and took them hone. For a long time the poor wife pondered, and at last said : "Now, dear, the expensive xnufff is a beauty, and it is really very good of you to allow me niy choice.
