DISTURBANCE ,,ON A TRAIN.—The Grand Trunk Railway officials telegraphed this station from Winghstn junction last Friday, that some parties from Kincardine were assaulting the brakeman and to have a , co stable to arrest them. Constable Scott was on hand Laud whem the train arrived it was found that Conductor McCallum had also been assaulted. The conductor laid complaint before A, Hunter, J.P., for as- sault and battery, against R. Durnion and S. Laird, of Kincardine, and brakesman Henderson against J. Pratt. Coostables Scott and Broadfoot had the prisoners ar- rested and they came up before Messrs. Hunter, McCrae and Kerr. J.P.., on Mon- day, but after the evidence was taken in the Pratt charges the cases were adjourned for one week on account of the prisoner Durnion and conductor McCallum not being able to be on hand on account of injuries s atained in the fight. On Tuesday, Detec- tive Bradley of the Grand Trunk Railway staff laid information againetthem for inter - el ring with the free running of the train, which will also come up on Monday next.

Tired of Restaurant Grub. A Nebraska travelling man is responsible for the following effusion : " Baekward, tnrn backward, 0 time, in thy flight, feed me on gruelagain just for tonight ; I am ao weary of reatanrant steaks, petrified doughnuts and vulcanized steake, oysters that sleep in a watery bath, butter as strong as Goliath of Gath ; weary of paying for what I can't eat, chewing up rubber and calling it meat. Backward, turn backward, for weary I am ! Give me a whack at my grandmother's jam ; let me drink, milk that. has never been skimmed, let me eat butter whose hair has been trimmed ; let me but once have an old fashioned pie, then I'll be willing to curl up and die ; I have been eating iron fillings for -years—iii it a won- der I'm melting in tears ?" would keep to the right, and then, when sheaknew a collison to be inevitable, had sprung out of the path of danger. Another conntry physician says that he was driving, late one dark night, over a strange road, A violent rein had been fall- ing, and the highway was badly washed. Presently his horse, a Vermont Morgan, made a leap, and crashed through what seemed to be the upper branches of a tree, taking the gig with him. Half a mile fur- ther on he made another jump; there came a crash and a shiver, the gig reeled over an- other tree, poised for a moment on one wheel, and righted itself as the horse re- sumed his trot. 13y this time the doctor knew be muit be near a river with high banks, for he could hear the water roaring on the rocks below. Now the horse came to a dead stop, and re- fused to cross the bridge. The doctor urged him forward, and he took & few steps, only to move back in his tracks. This was twice repeated. Finally, vexed at such unusual obatinacy, the doctor struck him with the whip. The horse squealed with disgust, shook his head, advanced as before and backed again. Now, at last, the doctor !alighted and went forward to reconnoitie. This was what be saw: - The flooring of the bridge had been completely ;swept away by the flood. Nothing waa left but the sleepers running from bank to bank, and it was on one of these that the horse had walked out as far as he could with safety to the gig and its occupant. The obstructions which the roadster had junipecL were brush fences put up to stop travel oil the highway until the bridge could be repaired. A Young Philosopher. Carl is a young man of about four sum- mers, but of dignity and repose Of manner which would do credit to Methuselah. He is visiting his grandparents, who live in a tall house up town. Recently his grand- mother was somewhat alarmed on entering the room suddenly to find Carl lying flat on his stomach on the window -sill of the third story room, with half his body outside the window anci his ehort legs flying in the air, -blowing soap bubbles. He was promptly hauled in and admonished, and to impress upon him the danger, his grandmisther said: Why, Carl, if I had'nt come in when I did we would have picked you off the pavement with all your bones broken, and you would have been dead." "Well," said her grand- son with perfect sang froid, "haven't you got any heaven in New York ?" Intelligent Horses. The author of "Road, Track aod Stable" has sung the praises of the Morgan road- ster as an animal of fine gait and remarkable intelligence. The anecdotes he culls are from the tales of country doctors, men who have all the chence in the world of becoming the intimate acquaintances of their trusty nags. One very dark night a doctor was driv- ing along at a fast trot on a level road, when he heard a wagon approaching at a rapid pace from the opposite direction. He could see nothing, but as his lights were burning brightly, and the highway was a broad one,. he was not alarmed. Suddenly, however, his horse made a violent jump to the left, and crossed the road just in time to let the approaching team, driven, as it appeared, by a drunken man, dash by in the track which the doctor's buggy had that instant left. The intelligent creature had waited till the last minute, thinking that the vehicle A Plea For Yawning. According toepular prejudice, yawning in good society is an improper sign .of Weariness ; but according to the teschisigs of physiology, It is a long -drawn, forcible inspiration followed by a shorter respirstiOn. Doctor Naegeli terms it one of nature's remedies, and thus speaks of it: In yawning, not only the muscles which move the lower jaw are used, but also the breathing muscles of tho chest. In the deepest inspiration the chest remains ex- tended for a short time, the eyes are almost or entirely closed, the ears somewhat raised, the nostrils dilated. Inside the mouth the tongue becomes round and arched, the pal- ate stiffly stretched, and the uvula is raised, almost entirely closing the space between the nose and throat. At the beginning of the inspiration a cracking noise is heard in the ears, a procf that the duct; leading to the hearing also succumbs to this stretching. Although a person who is yawning does not present a very charming appearance his own sensations are agreeable ; - for the stretching of the muscles causes a feeling ef comfort. It acts like massage, and is the most natural gymnastics for the lungs. Doctor Naegeli advises people not to con- cern themselves with squeamish politeness, but every morning and evening, and as often as possible at other times, to exercise the lunge and all the muscles of respiration by yawning and stretching, as many chronic lung troubles may thus be prevented or. cured. In cases of nasal catarrh, inflammation of the palate'sore throat and ear -ache, Doctor Naegeli orders the patient as often as pos- sible each day to yawn from six to tin times successively, and immediately afterward to swallow. The result will be surprising. If one looks upon yawning as a natural massage for certain organs, he will reach a satisfactory explanation of its curative prop- erties.—Youth's Companion.

T. McKAY, Secretary. Reliability Commands Secures The applause and assistance of fair minded men the world over. Its dis- tinguished presence is welcomed in the home of the mechanic, in the mansion of the retail merchant, or in the palace of the monarch with the same respect alike in all; so, what greater qualification can a manufacturer possess than this ? It is a test of honest purposes and higher aims, working hand in band for a glorious result, as arrayed against simu ation, which endeavors to under- mine and detract from the real cause of pri4s upon representative products. "Fulfill your promises" should be the watch ord, for without it you lose THE WORLD'S FAIR OPINION And its influence upon that futiire which all should prize and protect. Years ago, when we started to build a future, we planted the foundation upon the ground of RELIABILITY, and faithfully; year by year, have we labored under its influence. To -day we know that the wearers of jackson Brothers Clothing greet it with an honest welcome, and to them we promise our best efforts to have its influence grow, and that we, the builders of its good name, will protect its precious future. pisiimoNsmimmum•I=NI•MININIIN.1•111.
