''That is something every motorist stould remember, but which far too luny do not. Yn fact there are same motorists who seem to hold the be- lief, that the streets' and roads were =Ade for cars, and that pedestrians, wether adult or children, have no right tobe on them. . ,But pedestrians have rights on the road and motorists should be very careful to respect them. School signs aye very plainly marked on the streets and roads so that the motorist can not plead ignorance of their locality, even if they don't see the children. And motorists should remember that children are not adults. Their sense of danger is not the same. They will dart thoughtlessly back and for- ward and they will sometimes pro- voke a driver as no other human is provoked. Nevertheless, they are very precious human lives and motor- ists should always carry this fact in the front of their minds. Remember the children and slow up where you see a school sign. It al- ways pays to be careful, and it will only take a minute or two. uuaf eit%) racie r?nytPo,,lae' to ;m or his 11gaPfega. cl tl: 474 gc1Q41413 tri ie destiee,- tion, because in not one out of a hundred of these accidents, has it. bean claimed that oven seventy min- utes would have made any material difference an earrivi'ng at the destina- tion.

CHEAP AT THE PRICE (From the Montreal Star) A cable dispatch from Paris in- forms us that a French statistician has estimated that it costs $300,000,- 000 a year to keep French women beautiful, or in other words that the women of France spend that huge sum on cosmetics of all kinds, lip- stick, rouge, powder and pastes, eye - blacking and all the odds and ends of the feminine toilet. Our French authority appears to be shocked at it. He says that the trouble is that the cosmetic manu- facturer being a wily creature, will not leave well enough alone. Having got all fashionable feminine France painting itself pink, let us say, he invents a particularly snappy shade of green, whereupon thousands and thousands of sets of all kinds of stuff for the production of pink effects are jettisored and all France—on the distaff side, that iso -sets about mak- ing itself look like a bad day on the English Channel. The cosmetician keep on evolving new shades for lip- sticks, so that the one in use is never more than half gone when it is nec- essary to throw it out of the window and go in for a month of another col- or. And this alone costs nearly a hundred million dollars a year. T H E D I" Y W E AT H E R From all over Ontario, and in fact from all over Canada, are coming stories of hardships caused by the unusually dry weather that has pre- vailed for some weeks. Some districts are suffering more severely than others and Western On- tario might be called one of the fav- ored sections. But even in Western Ontario the situation is becoming ser- ious at many points. Two extreme cases are from the Ingersoll district. farmer who disposed of one of his farms and went to London to re- side, but who kept a herd on other property in the district. This man is making daily trips by car from Lon- don, so that he may drive the herd a distance of two miles for water. In another extreme case a farmer who takes his milk to the Borden fac- tory in Ingersoll daily, is filling his cans with water in that town and taking it back to his pasture. In this district there are, as yet. no cases as extreme as this, but the situation ie really becoming serious. Pastures are burned and baked, creeks that have not been dry for years are rapidly drying up, and water in many wells is getting low. Crops of all kinds, have been un- usually good in Huron this year, but many farmers who were !coping to make a little money on the season's operations are beginning to fear that they are not yet out of the woods. Especially is this so with the cat- tlemen. With the market price two cents off and a heavy shrinkage in weight being caused by the heat and poor pasturage many farmers are really going to be up against it, un- less relief comes soon. These are just two of that make ardous reported One is a eblaae, SoMo ultir WOO AMaa'l- 1G3l i'biti at Toronto la gQt,tina' afloaaC era, ods aacct D ; 9 t the otk >i .' .bp eieelly and it, its f peeteal Win Goon be were etill elect .

No doubt it is all very reprehensible and wasteful and what not, but for our part we refuse to become either excited or indignant. Any art which can, in whatever capacity or to what- ever extent, aid or abet in the pro- duction of a human creature brought to the point of perfection which is attained by the fashionable Parisienne deserves every sou it earns—or ac- quires. Some manifestations of such perfection may be beyond our com- prehension. Sea -green, right enough in an incorruptible Robespierre, may be a bit difficult for the outlander to fathom when applied to the counten- ance of a pretty girl. But what is a statistician that he should do sums to prove it economic folly? Let this art be judged by its accomplishment, and three hundred millions a year is lit- tle enough. the things farming the most haz- occupation on earth. Mar. may control the market to a certain extent, but no man can control the weather. And when man does con- trol the market he never has any in- tention of letting the farmer benefit. If any benefit accrues to the farmer one may rest assured it is caused by accident, not by good will. And the weather. Well the farmer is -up against that risk at all times, and just at present it is not just a� against trains at level crossings. ,inomaeg elOtee of oeur 'buildershad a ettareerve escape from serious injurer while doing aerate shingling and im- provements to lois dwelling, and step- ping accidentally benkvrerde from his sea old and falling heavily to the ground, but escaping any broken -hones or serious injuries. --Mrs. W.

James and 'Starry Anderooii and Miss Loraine JUST SEVEN SECONDS The Oshawa Times says that it is claimed that the average train passes over a railway crossing in seven sec- onds and that it would be interesting for motorists to stop and find out if this is correct, rather than to try and save the seven seconds. And we would say that the Times was jalbsolutely \corre+ct. Yet (there are hundreds of motorists that don't agree with either of us. Hundreds of motorists who are quite satisfied If they can get over a crossing seven seconds ahead of a train, and quite a few e�ren who do not seem to turn a hair if the margin is only two sec- onds. But in spite of these motorists, we are very moth inclined to side with the Times, and every once in a while something turns up that tends to strengthen our belief. That some- thing is the report of a railway Cross- ingOxidant' or fatality, we see al- t ett every day in the papers.

Medical aid was obtained as quickly as possible, but the injuries so near to the shoulder made it very hard to diaogonose so the doctor thought it best to have an x-ray taken and took Kenneth to Stratford Hospital, where a couple of plates were taken, and af- ter the developing of the same it has been decided to take him to the Sick Children's Hospital at Toronto to get expert advice and treatment, as it is thought the shoulder will have to be strengthened for the present with some steel attachment to prevent the drooping of it and disfigurement of same.
