.At,,n,..m t;.ng• of the CCanadian Fire
Wnderwrit Association, held in To-
sro-nto, lately, itwas laid down what
a standae:1 town is, It is premised that a
‘standard town must be free from abnor-
mal incendiarism, and must not show
an undue loss rate,' L Eurthermore, it
must have not more then 24 per cent
of frame buildings in its business queer -
ter, and must possess by-laws restrict-
ing wooden buildings, etc. The undwrit-
ers do not put any vain on the utility
of chemical engines ancthave withdrawn
the advantage . of classification pos-
sessed by towns . using them. Other
matters of importance were dealt with
by the association in regard to fire pro-
tection appliances, etc.
The report of the licenses for the Pro-
\vince shows that while their were 164
•liquor licenses in Huron in 1875, the
number was reduced to 102 in 1892. and
from 37 shop licences in 1875 the - num-
ber dropped to 5 .in 1892. The amount
received by the Ridings as their pro-
portion of the licence fee was, East
Huron, $926.19; South Huron, $245.02;
;Weet Huron, $2637.61.
The annual meeting of the Grind he
sociatson of Patrons of Industry, y
following resolution was passed; "That
whether a Patrol candidate has been
nominated or not, members of the order
shall not be permitted daring an election
contest to support the candidature of
any party candidate on a public plat-
form but then every member shall re.
gard it to be his duty on any platform
or elsewhere to defend the Patons'
platform and advocate the principles
of the order." It is very doubtful if the
patrons '{ he able to make all their
members conform to the above resolu-
tion.
Guelph is talking municipal insur-
ance, and at a recent meeting it was
stated that the cost of insuring the city
was about $75,000 per annum, "while
the average loss in ten years would not
amount to $5000 a year. From this
view of the matter it would be a splen -
;lid investment for the city ado its
to the Agee.' when I asked what
kind of ahplace the 'Moses' was they
said it was the new Crowsilands office
connected with theHonee of Parliament,
then they all laughed ,add tteld me
women had no right to bother their
heads about politics. fi

"My dear, I'm getting afraid tha RELIEF Ix six HOURS.—Distressing
this deputation business isn't doing our
husbands any good. Mrs. Craddack told
me her husband was dreaming the other
night after he came back from the city.
She heard him say quite plainly, `Boys,
have you all had supper ? Then let us
take a whirl and see the elephant.'
" Next morning when she eased him
it he told her that Mr. Walker of the
Walker house where they stayed. had
just come back from India and brought
back a white elephant which they kept
chained up in the Cyclorame and what

The habits of practical economy
forced on the people of this conuntry
-by the hard times will survive when
prosperity corns again. Many people
have learned to make a dollar go as far
they used\ to find two able to go, be -
,cause the dollar was the only one they
had, and it had to do. When they are
more fortunate, they have two dollars
where now they have one, it - is not
likely that they will continue to live on
the one, but a large part of the other
will be put by.
It is said that the post office officials
are kept busy lust now looking after
persons who attempt to prepay postage
with stamps previously used. Several
convictions have recentlj been obtained
throughout the province.
