can be seen.
A little back from the road, on the

of the town, and no person in all time past
has been injured thereby, but on the con-
trary nearly all persons have been more or
lees amused and gratified bythese semple
exhibitions of speed. I claim that it is onr
right and privilege to use our streets for the
purposes for which they were intended. I
have said more than I thought of doing,and
only wish to state further, that there is a
paragraph in the portion of this By -Law
quoted by you, that it seems to me our
Council should consider the propriety of re-
pealing at once. It is this :-
"Nor shall any person or perions ride or driVe
over or along any atreet at a furious or immoder-
ate pace, whether such pace be•it troi or a gallop,
or in such a walnut as to endanger or unres,
sonahlk incommode an), person; nor shall any
person or persons drive over any crossing .or
street corner at a pace teeter than a walk."
And 1 wish to observe that this is in all
respects obselete, and never observed, and
almost impraeticable, and againet common
senile, while it places the law in the hands
of an unscrupulous person. by which any
person might be fined. Every loaded or
other team trot over crossings and around
corners, and I shall be glad to -know that
the matter has been brought to the atten-
tion of our Municipal Council.
Yours truly, Cenrrosaas.

The listener in the meantime, screen-

window, was pale as death, the knife
falling from his nerveless hand. What
should all this mean. Was the school-
boy taunt but the bare truth, or how?
When Sir Arthur came out of the
porch with Mr Meade, Philip had pul-
led himself together, and was able to
come forward calmly at his father's
call.
"So this is the boy," said Sir Arthur,
laying his strong, slender hand with
gentle firmness upon Philip's head,
pushing back the tumbled hair and
turning the face upward for the seat ch-
ing scrutiny he gave it. A long, long
glance he bent upon Philip's flushing
face, kind though stern, and with a
mingling of sorrow, compunction,
and yearning which vaguely touched
the boy's self -steeled heart and grad-
ually subdued the bold defiance of his
upward gaze.
"You are tall and strong for yOhr
age, Philip." he said, removing his
hand at last; "never misuse' your
