On the 26th of the same month four inches of snow fell, the heaviest fall for the New Year. In February it rained once near midnight, and in twenty-four hours it was one below zero. On March 1st it rained here and by the morning of the 3rd it was four be- low zero. So you see the weather- man, Mr. Richardson, of this city, is quite an acrobat; but surely just the same it has been a mild winter thus , far, and the savingexpenses on the coal and wood bills has been remark- able, and the same, though to a les- ser extent on clothing and footwear. Those dealing in the above men- tioned ''commodities are at outs with his hoary majesty, "Father Winter," and some of the female consumers might be pardoned if they felt like I embracing, hugging and kissing the old gent, despite his snow and ice- I covered whiskers, were he of. human i mold. Again the haughty' coal baroniof I profiteering fame up this way, has announced another reduction in the price of soft coal of one dollar per ton. Some time ago he made a re- I duction of $5.25 to $5.50 according to the variety. These reductions were made compulsory, by lack of I buying power caused by the unusual; mild winter and not by_a change. of heart. By the way it is now President Harding, his inaugration to office tak- ing place to -day and the Covenant of the League of r Nations as E -Pres. Wilson would have had it is now seemingly been or will be thrust aside. Tremendous problems are fac- ing the new adminstration that would take a Lincoln or a Roosevelt to handle. May Harding prove an able and worthy president is the wish and prayer of millions. It would seem he has tried to select splendid men for his cabinet. May they prove worthy advisers and guides of the destiny of this "Great Republic." By the way I see it takes a lot of money at times to elect a president for the United States. It took $10,338,509 to do the job on November 2nd, 1920. Of this amount, Republican candi- dates and campaign organizations spent as given $8,100,000, while Democratic expenditures were $2237,- 700. These are the figures as I read them, leaving $739 not accounted for; but that sum might have been spent on cigars, snuff or some strong tem- perance drinks. ,Prohibition is a law in this country, bet as yet it is a long way from be- ing a success, and is being violated eve,�,ywhere so that many consider it a complete failure. But I do not. I know many, who, in this city, form- erly used to spend a great part of their earning in the saloons, neglect- ing to provide for their wives and families and others dependent upon them, the latter often suffering from the lack of proper food and clothing, fuel, and other necessaries. And at times reviled, cursed and abused by liquor, loving husbands and fathers, some iprutal, drunken husbands going as far as beating and kicking their wives when under the influence of the demon rum. But this is pretty well now a thing of the past. But with the saloons out of the way the opportunity to drink or purchase liquor is a much harder task, unless a member of the law -violating ring and the temptation is further remov- ed as it is in the out-of-the-way places where liquor is sold contrary to the law and likely to be raided by the authorities at any time, and be- sides having liquor in one's posses- sion leaves a person liable to a heavy fine or off to the workfarm if fine money is not on hand. Besides, dear reader, would you not consider a person a fit candidate for the insane asylum who would pay fifty cents a drink, or $20 a quart for vile stuff that often now is almost deadly poison? But many have paid these figures since the saloons were put out of business. The treating busi- ness was one curse of the liquor traffic. Had this been unlawful hun- dreds of thousands now would not be filling a drunkard's grave. There were. nearly, at one time in this city 180 saloons in the deadly game, each paying 31,000 yearly license. phis was a big) revenue for the city, but just the same it represented blood money. Think of the privations, suffering and rivers of women's tears -those paying this were responsible for. In order to make prohibition, more effective those in authority must keep con- tinually after the law violators, whe- ther they manufacture the accursed stuff, sell the same, or bring it in from other countries, arresting and punishing with 9laverity those found guilty and doubling the penality on those chosen to enforce the laws and forany reason violating the same. The law violators are away in the minority but they are a very active and unscruplous outfit but with the aid of all good law-abiding citizens, churches, public schools, high schools, Young Men's Christian Associations, Young Women's Christian Asebela- tions, and with the aid of all kindred branches of the same order, and with a rising generation free trom liquor's enslaving grasp and with the passing away from the -life those who, at present, are its humble slaves, there may come a time when prohibition will be a hundred per cent. success and old John Barleycorn relegated for 'good -to his unholy tomb'. Writ- ing about this liquor business rea minds me of a time, at least In the latent 70's, when an effort' was being made to put the Dunkin Act into force in Ontario, to curb the liquor traffic. The late' Ahdtew Govenlock, in partnership with his sons, owning and operating a sawmill, grist mill and general store about half a mile south of the then Winthrop post office, was an inveterate foe of the Dettion Rum. petitions were, being gotten up in favor of the Danldn Act.

There ave`bOen \armee, of fromfe, bttt the 'car - bungle so situated is almost always fatal. Physicians. and surgeons are not Agreed as to the primary cause of carbuncle, nor of their differentiation from boils but some of the greatest consider that carbuncles are gan- grene of the deep akin or deeper th- emes due to a local invaeion of puss forming microbes. In an address before the Haftretan Society in London recently Dr. Sidney Phillipa, consulting physician to St. Mary's and the London Fever Hos- pitals, said that the cause was us- unlly, if not always, the microbe call- ed staphylococcus pyogenes aureus, which a debilitated condition of the body permits to take on activity sud- denly. One bad feature of carbuncles is their tendency to repeat themselves in other parts of the body, thus in- creasing the already existing weak - nese. Carbuncles have been more common since the war than they used to be before it. Diabetic persons are more likely to have them than others. Dr. Phillip says that all antiseptic preparations that irritate or inflame the akin must be avoided as continu- ous dressing for carbuncles. The one he has found most effective is liquor sodas j�h•orinatae in a 1 in 20 or 1 in 80 solfftion. He is strongly against lancing except when the carbuncle is so deeply seated that the pressure is intensely painful -or when the opening in the skin is too small to let out the tough fibrous necrosed matter that forms inside. And he quotes the famous Dorjen of Paris as in- veighing against it as almost certain to cause other carbuncles.and to leave a cr•aterdike hole which soon dis- charge large quantites of virulently infected pus, a cavity that is intensely I painful and takes a long ' time to heal. The early incision recommend- ed by Foote and Warbasse, of New York, he favors only when it is advisable to relieve great tension. Dr. Phillips says that while the milder forms of carbuncle may be cufed by vaccine, the experience of surgeons during the war teaches that vaccines are generally ineffective. Nor has he found yeast of any use, although some other \physicians re- commend it as an internal treatment. The only medicine he has found ef- fective is intra -muscular injections of collosol manganese, which often makes the carbuncle dry up and scab over in a remarkable manner. As for diet, he recommends that this be left to the patient, as there is no danger of his over eating. He says the moat effective way of getting rid of the debris of slough and pus is syringing, preferably with the same solution that is used in the dressiugs. He warns against squeez- ing or pressure, as it always makes the patient feel ill, and against too much washing of the akin, as it is sure to be followed by a plentiful crop of pustules or secondary car- buncles. This is true also of oint- menttf. lh: Philips remarks on the mar- vellously small scar left by a car- buncle that has not been lanced, even when the crater has been very large. It seems that the skin heels readily over such a spot. But "a carbuncle traces at least a week to open up, a fortnight to discharge all slough and a week or more completely to heal; a month is the leapt time from be- ginning to end, and many take three months." England and hailing from Yorkshire of the same glorious country, and who in his day nobly did his share and helped to make Old Huron what it is today to canvass a certain sec- tion of Metillop for s1gnatuties. Mr. Tyerman asked me to go along with him. So with team and sleigh we ' started early one morning. Part of our route, I think, took us to Mc- Killop's eastern boundary. We got nearly ejl.the signatures of those we I asked. Somewhere back on the 10th 1 or llth concession, or it might have' been the 12th' or 13th, we were in- debted to the late Robert Ross, form- erly of the 9th concession, for getting us a couple of signatures. Ills per- suasion added to ours won the point. In the German settlement we did not find one farmer at home, but got the signatures of two we met driving on a side line with loads of wood for Seaforbh. When we got our beat covered and were returning west- ward on the 10th and 11th conces- sion, it was getting late in the after- noon and we wished to return the signatures to Mr. Govenlock before going home. By some unfortunate fate we had no dinner and both of us were very hungry. I yet remem- ber how hungry I was -just simply famished, and my companion was the same; and our noble friends, the horses, drawing us and the sleigh must also have felt the pangs of hunger. As we neared the late John Wright's residence, atthat time on the llth concession, Mr. Tyerman suggested- we would drive in there and he would ask Mrs. Wright if she would give us something to eat, u we were- very hungry- I seconded the motion in record tine. Mrs. Wright was at home and that good lady told us to put the team in the stable and give them Hay and oats, and she old prepare a meal right away. watering the horses we gave'h8i' Mats and hay and then went r house. In remarkably quick time ottr kind hostess had a warm kneel prepared for us, and to say we did ample justice to it would be putting it mild. Oh, how I did eat and my companion did likewise. Af- ter a reasonable time spent in pleas- ant conversation we thanked our kind friend and bid her good day, hitched pp the team and drove to lox Gov. tenlock's, where Mr. Tyerman turned over the results of our canvass. Mr. andMrs. John Wright, at one time and as early pioneers and settlers, resided on the 9th concession across from our old homestead. I remember them well, as kind neighbors, and in my late years on Old Huron's soil had often seen them as devout at- tendants and.- worshippers at the ,Methodist church situated on the southwest ceprner of the realbraith homestead, 9th concession, MeKillop. Mr. Wright has joined the silent majority and gone to his eternal re- ward, but the partner of his joys and sorrows is atilt with you, a resident of Seaforth. May this good and kind lady be with you for many years to ''come is the wish and prayer of the writer. ROBERT McNAUGHTON. Duluth, Minn., March 4, 1921.

When all else could prove an alibi the rats were blamed. The increasing number of -fires' attributed to this cause emph- asized the necessity of establishing the possibility of its being bona fide. The Underwriters' Laboratories, Inc. of Chicago, after careful and pro- ]oeged experiments by its fire pre- vention engineers, has reached the definite conclusion tha ata would rather starve to death tam,. eat the modern match heads. This conclusion has arrived at through a series of elaberate teats, covering a period of eight months and more, in which numbers of rats were placed in enclosures with boxes of matches arranged so that they could reach them. The first test was made without feeding or watering the rats; in the second they were given water, but no food; and in the third they were given food and end water for two weeksand then starved, but supplied with water until they died. Occasionally the strawboard boxes were gnawed and the boxes broken open and matches scattered all around, but although frequently the rats ate one another, in no case were the match heads gnawed nor was there any apparent danger of ignition. With this positive • evidence in their possession, investigations 'of fires will view with suspicion a fire which is attributed to rats gnawing matches. . for my daughter.
