REVIEW.—In answer to a question the Toronto News said :—"The town of Gode- rick lies almost directly west of Toronto." The Kincardine Review adds :—The town of Goderich lies, about 35 miles south of Kincar- dine. MR. GEORGE PAR1c,E, of Chrystal and Black's Goderich boiler works, who had been for about a week re- pairing and enlarging the pane in Mr. McGarva's salt works here, went to Wingharn Wednesday, on hie firm's business, and will retur here at an early date to compfo the work the firm has on hand i% Clinton. THE PunLlo Scuoots in towns villages and rural districts will close for the holidays on Tuesday the 30th June, not on the 26th as stated last week. The latter date applies only to cities. The Clin- ton Public School will be open for parents and visitors on the 30th. If the falling off in` attendance of pupils keeps at the rate for the last few weeks the chances are good for a beggarly array of empty seats which are usually occu*led by com- ing statesmen and matrons. TRUTHS ABOUT TROUT.—Last Wednesday apple king D. Caute- lon had some business to transact at Manchester. Mr. Todd accom- panied him in his two-wheel'd rig, and D. C's excellent driver fairly made the dust fly. From Mau ,chester they proceeded to the farm .of Mr. Higginbotham iu search of :trout. The search was not in vain, for in a short time they had bagged four dozen speckled beauties, in .size from seven inches down. The return journey was made in -quick order, and "Day" has a .driver of which he justly feels :proud. TGucni,-NG TRIBUTE.—During the ,temperance meeting in conference, Rev, Jas. ,Livingstone, of Listowel, took occasion to refer to the illneea of Sir John Macdonald as follows : "The dark shadow of eternity has thrown an eclipse across the colos sal mind and commanding genius of our greatest ileader, who is at this hour sinking slowly into the deeper shade. Let .our prayer go up to the ever loving One, that it may please Him to lift upon him the flood gates of eternal light, and at last give him an abundant en- trance into Hia Kingdom' to ,enjoy his well-earned rest for ever and ever."

R. r, ATLOR,.., t,e poet - lawyer, well and favorably known in Clinton, hae opened a real estate and law office in Superior City, Mich. MESSRS JOHN RANSFORD and Councillor Plummer were delegates from Clinton to the meeting of the Anglican Synod of the diocese of Huron in London last week. MRS. — MORGAN of Markham' Ont. was last week visiting Mrs. R. Irwin. It is a decade of years since Mrs. Morgan saw Clinton and was then known as Mies Mary Canning. MR. DAVE C. BLUFF managed to soaps from the county town and its rresistibly restrictive institutions or a day last week to cordially hake with his many friends in town. MR. E. KAAI{E, formerly of Clin- on,reeently of Blytlr, has rented the photograph gallery at Lucknow, formerly occupied by Mr. W. J. Stringer, and will commence busi- ness there about the second of July. THE brink work of little Jim Beattie's big livery barn is now well under way and when completed and furnished with all the appurtenances thereunto appertaining as Jim will will have them, the achievement will be satisfactory to the public, and we trust to the proprietor, as it is an ambitious building. INSANE.—George Ostrom, of Kin• cardine, charged with shooting at Bailiff Campbell last winter while the latter was making a seizure on his premises, waa tried before Judge Kingsmill. The jury brought in a verdict of insanity. The prisoner will therefore be confined in an in- sane asylum.

The best musio, some talent from a dis- tance, will be in attendance and tempting refreshments will be serv- eII. Admission 5 cents ; refresh- ments extra. IT WOULD DE A (STAGE.—The following is a quotation from a pri- vate letter lately, received from an old Winghamite, now of Mississip- pi, U. S. : "I can tell the Canadian farmer he will make a big mistake if he ever votes for free trade, as I know he gets far more for hie.j'iro- duce at home than be would in this country." ON1 of THE ALLEGED BURGLARS FINED. --It will be remembered that one of the alleged burglars of the Brussels postoffico who had given hie name as Leonard got off wheu tried at Godarich, through the in- genious defence of lawyer Proudfoot, but was re -arrested and taken to Listowel charged with carrying con- cealed weapons. There he changed his name to Hendricks and was fined $50 and costs. He lay in the lock-up for a week when he raised enough to pey the costs and part of the fine and was liberated. WHAT ARE THE DOG DAYS 7—An exchange says : The dog days last from the beginning of July to Aug 11. The popular theory is that they are so called because dogs then go mad ; but the notion is etymologically false, besides being untrue iu fact. Dogs, strange to say, are rather less liable to rabies then than at other times. "Dog days" is really a translation of the Latin "dies Canieularee"—the twen- ty days before and the twenty days after the beliacal rising (that is, appearance in the morning just before the sun) of the star Sirius, whom the Romana called "Cani- cula," or "little dog." Tho an ()lents attributed a moat malevolent influence to this star—our "dog star"—and sacrificed a brown dog to it to appease its rage. If this were not done they thought that the sea would boil, the wine turn sour and dogs begin to grow mad, the bi a increase and' 411..ailixnalaagro.v,t janguid. That has been loilg wanted.

I bought a piece of it and I could not get my teeth through the fat." The butch- er grabbed hold of the chopping block to hurl at Mac, but Mac was too quick and dissappeared around the corner. A young man from au adjoining burg went to see hie girl one night last week. After the old folks had retired the young man edged his chair up close to the girl and gently put his arm around her. After chat- ing some time he unfortunately fell asleep. This so annoyed the girl that she gently released herself and put a slim waisted churn with some clothes on it on the chair just vacat- ed. The sleepy youth was huggin. the churn when the old man cam down stairs. The young man ha not been back since. NOT A TOLUTATER.—A8 T. C. Doherty was speeding W. D's, recent equine purchase on the Clin- ton driving park, an onlooker r•e• marked, "Well, that animal is not a tolutater anyway." "No,'said another, "nor any other kind of a tater- ; he's what I call a square trotter." "Just what I said, replied the first party". Hereupon an etymological and philological discus- sion arose which showed that Clinton turfitos belong to a class cultured in the mysteries of language as well as of horse flesh. Upon looking up authorities skilled in the meaning of words it was found that a horse that tolutiee is one that lifts the legs on the sa a side together when speeding --a pacer in fact. Whereas trotting is the act of moving one fore foot and the hind foot of the opposite side at the same time when speeding. Finally, all agreed that the Doherty colt was not a "toluta• ter"," but a splendid gaited square trotter of considerable present speed which under persistent and careful Lo th's Starch Enamel.
