HOW TO BE HAPPY
Charles Pearce, the self-styled
"King of the Hobos" was in town.
Thursday and seemed to think we
should all be honoured to meet him
and speed him along with a bit of
publicity. He claims that he used to.
live in this vicinity and seems to know
a lot of people. He declared himself
on the hunt for a twenty -year-old
girt with ten thousand dollars who
would be willing to marry him, upon
which he would share with her his
crown and septre. He seems harm-
less and his mania, like the fleas on
a dog, probably keeps him from
worrying about what he isn't. He
declared his intention to start on a
journey to Hollywood.
TO GIVE EMPLOYMENT
The Kitchener -Waterloo Kiwanis
Club have under consideration some
plan, whereby arrangements could be
made to exchange the work and ser-
vices of their unemployed men in the
City of Kitchener for farm products
with the farmers. Te help the Com-
mittee make decisions, they have sent
out a blank forth to fill in, of which
a copy can be had from Mr. L . H.
Rader, of Hay Tp., or write to the
Dumart Packing. Co., Kitchener.They
believe that it would be possible to
assist the farmer in matters outlin-
ed in their circular, without any ex-
change of money whatever, but sim-
ply to be paid for in farm products,
on a satisfactory mutual arrangement
to all concerned.
A • Strange Meeting
There was a strange meeting on a
Goderich township road last Tuesday
A baliff, armed with a distress ..war -
ant, met a farmer on the road whose
chattels he was about to seize for
taxes. Nothing unusual about that,
but the farmer had the chattels, farm
implements, loaded on the wagon.
on which he was seated, and was
on his way to community auction sale
at Clinton to sell them. Moreover,
the same farmer had a few clays pre-
vious, sold his horses. There was a
conference and all adjourned to a
bank at Clinton, where the money
was secured to satisfy the taxes. The
auti1on sale proceeded.

We will meet again some day."
Ever remembered by daughter,
Anna.
In Police Court
Monday last Magistrate Reid, at
Goderich, imposed a fine of $50 and
costs $31.05, on Joseph Flynn of
Crediton, for brewing beer without a
permit. Thos. Glazier, of Bluevale,
vicinity drew suspended sentence of
two years forstealing a team of
horses, the property of Stanley Mc-
Donald, Morris Township.
Pleading guilty to a charge of per-
jury in County Judge's Criminal Co-
urt, Clark Stanley, aged 27, farmer
residing near Blyth, was sentenced
,to one month in jail by Judge Cost-
ello, who extended leniency so as to
allow accused, father of two small
children, to do his spring work on
his farm. Otherwise, the sentence
would have been more severe. His
Honor said. Stanley is now serving
a two months' sentence at the county
jail for a liquor offence arising out of
the death of James Taman, young
Blyth garage employee, who alleged-
ly tied :I£noan alcholic poisoning.
Described as the organizer and
ringleader of what he, described as
"The .Purple Gang," an organization
which .started as a hockey team and
acquired other tendencies, Earl Mero
of 'Godericrh, was sentenced to one
year on each of five charges of brew
king, entering and theft, to which he
pleaded guilty. The sentences are to
run concurrently. Mero has a record
as also has Peter Warnock, sentence
to three ,months definite and three
months :indeterminate, both in an
Ontario ,uefkormatory. Six other me-
mbers of "the gang" were given two
years suspended sentence. Mero took
iis sentence nonchalantly and the
Megintr<tte did not lecture him, ox- r all hope for a speedy recovery, now
pressing .the wish that he emerge] that the most dangerous days are

Mr. John Oesch of Pigeon, Mich.,

IMPROVING NICELY
Friends far and near are indeed
pleased to learn that Mrs. John Oesch
and daughter Mrs. Susie Oesch north
of town and the surviving patients of
the Botulism poisoning that we men-
tioned of last week, are improving as
well as can be expected for the ser-
ious condition they were in a week
ago. The former Mrs. Oesch, who
was the worst ' of the two patients,
is rapidly regaining her power of
speech, but her throat is still consid-
erably paralyzed so that she has not
as yet regained her faculty of swall-
owing even liquids, but her general
condition is improved very much.And
the daughter Mrs. Susan has improv-
ed considerable too. Dr. A. J. Mac-
Kinnon advises us that the recovery
of botulism poisoning is usually very
slow, as it generally takes months
before a complete recovery is effect-
ive, and very few patients are ever
able to recover, as the statistics show
that far more deaths than recoveries
are the case. So after all the Oesch
family have been more fortunate than
the average, if two are saved out of
three. Friends, as well as the im-
mediate family greatly appreciate the
untiring efforts of medical attention
And careful nursing given by Dr. A.
J. MacKinnon and Mrs. Wm. S. John-
ston, R. N. The former during the
first week spent most of his time with
these patients and lost many hurs' of
rest in diagnosing the symptoms of
the disease and being in touch with
the prominent city doctors. The lat-
ter, Mrs. Johnston hays been twenty-
four hours on duty since the sickness
started all but one day when she was
relieved by Mrs. D. Steckle, R. N.
Mrs. Johnston ls the type of nurse
that the profession is proud off, never
thinking of rest or relaxation as
long as she is on duty, giving the
best that she has to her patients. We
