On Saturday, an Orillia lady entered
the post office to post a letter. Opening
l{er pocketbook she took therefrom a
piece of corn plaster (mistaking it for a
three -Dent stamp,) and stuck it on the
Metter. On retiring at night she put
'the stamp on her corn, and of course
the letter turned up dead and the corn
' is still alive.

• Mr Nunn lost, and that morning gave
Mr McCollum his ride in the presence
• •of a large concourse of spectators.
On Saturday evening a Celestial, who
gave his -name as. Tom Lee, was.found
stark naked on a railway car on the
Esplanade, Toronto. He could not ex -
,plain what had become of his clothing,
and as he was without a plane of habi-
tation, he was lodged in the police sta-
tion as a vagarant. As he strutted
•about the corridors dressed up in an old
police uniform and a straw hat, he was
•about the queerest looking sight seen at
polioe headquarters for a long time.
George Prentice, - a wealthy farmer
•residing on the 9th con., Dereham, a
mile and a half from Brownsville, com-
mitted suicide on Thursday by shooting
,himself, in the breast With a ravolver.
In the morning he went to Culloden to
voted and about 3 o'clock in the af.
rnoon his son found him in the barn
dead. He was lying on his face in a
pool of blood; in his hand was a re-
volver ; his vest was unbuttoned and
1,. his shirt drawn open. The coroner de-
; oided that an inquest was unnecessary,
-as it was clearly a case of suicide. What
induced the deceased to take his own
life is a mystery. He was ell off, hav-
ing a farm of 200 acres unencumbered,
and had recently realized over 13,000
by a sale. He leaves a wife and family
of two daughters and one son at home
and one daughter married. Deceased
was a man of about 48 years of age.
During the past week or so it was no-
ticed that he was suffering form fits c f
melancholy.
The deadlock in the Kingston City
Council which arose at the beginning of
the year still continues, and the alder-
men have not been able in consequence
to transact any business of importance
up to the present time. All efforts 10
strike the standing committees have
been a failure. Last evening another
attempt was made to straighten mat-
ters out, but, like the preceding meet-
ings, no business was done,and now the
aldermen think there is no help for
them except to seek re-election. The
Council equally divided, with ten Con-
•servative aldermen and the mayor, who
is of the same political stripe, and
eleven Reform aldermen. The trouble
yj seems to be principally on the appoint -
4 --.relent of la chairman of the Streets
Committee. Both sides claim the poli•
tion. If the aldermen do not resign it
is likely a meeting of citizens will be
held to discuss the difficulty and take
steps to solve it. The Reformers are
willing to go back to the people if 'the
Conservative aldermen will go with
them.

replenish their stooks of meat, which
have been getting small, and though
the prices were higher than usual, yet
prices were about k of a cent per hun-

One day last week James, son of
Robt. Wright, of Minto, had his arm
broken in a very peculiar manner. He
went into the stable beside a young
horse, gave it a slap and told it to
stand over, but the colt did directly the
opposite, as he crowded young Wright
against the stall with such force as to
break his arm between the wrist and
the elbow. This is the fourth of this
family who have had an arm broken.

Makes the
Weak Strong
Tho marked benefit which people in run
gown or weakened state of health derive
from Hood's Sarsaparilla, conclusively proves
tate claim that this medicine '•makes the weak
strong." It does not act like a stimulant,
imparting fictitious strengt h from which there
must follow a rcaetlnu of greater weakness
than before, but in the most natural way
Hood's Sarsaparilla overcomes
That Tired Feeling
creates an appetite, purifies the blood, and,
III short, gives great bodily, nerve, mental
and digestive strength.
" I derived very much benefit front Hood's
Sarsaparilla, which I took for general debility.
i1 built me right up, and gave mo an excel-
lent appetite." Fn. ,Iitxictxs,Mt.Savage,Md.
Fagged Out
"Last spring I was completely fagged out.
My strength left me and I felt sick and mis-
erable all the thee, so that I could hardly
attend to my business. I took one bottle of
IIood's Sarsaparilla, and it eared me. There
is nothing like it." R. C. Brt:oux, Editor
Enterprise, Belleville, Mich.
Worn Out
"Hood's Sarsaparilla restored me to good
health. Indeed, I might say truthfully it
saved my life. To one feeling tired and worn
