NOT TRUE. -Our attention has been called to a statement in the New Era that the editor of this paper was being treated in Toronto for abscess or tumor in the head. Where our cotenr. receiv- ed its information we do not know. ' But we know the statement is not true. The real trouble was infiarnrnation of the bone -the mastoid. Our coterie might just as well have given its read- ers the truth or said nothing at all. • STILL THEY Uo ,-4n active friend of THE NEws-RECORD is doing good work in the neighborhood of Dungan- non. He sends us two more new sub. scribers, Another comes from the Nileandstill another from Kingsbridge. Our friends have our most sincere thanks for their active interest in this journal. We would be pleased to have each subscriber follow such worthy examples. THE NEWS -RECORD is a taking paper, and it speaks for itself. KIND Wonns.-During the past week we have been the recipient of many kind and cheering words from town and city confreres in our affliction. We appreciate the references all the more because we were helpless on our back from the result of chloroform, the surgeon's knife, chisels and mallet. Thanks to the science of surgery and medical skill we have come through the ordeal, right side up with care. All's Well that ends well. THE MONTREAL CHRISTMAS STAR. - We have just had an opportunity to inspect the Christmas Number of the Montreal Star which is now being issued. It is a really superb publication, and the excitement it is creating through- out Canada is quite justified. The Christmas Star needs to be seen, for anything we can say will not do it justice. The art supplements; that go with the Vhristmas Star are perfect gems, and the opinion is universal amongst art critics that no foreign publication and no previous Canadian Christmas pictorial can, for a moment compare with this year's Christmas Star. Of all the seasonable things, of all the sweet and acceptable presents, that can be given or sent to friends, certainly the Christmas Star takes the palm, and it is only fifty cents. This is verily a marvellousage. Thepublish- ers are Graham & Co., Montreal, who will send it direct where it cannot be procured through a newsdealer. OF LOCAL INTEREST. -Last Wednes- day the Toronto Empire had the follow- inglegal news which is of local interest: -. B. and C. P. Divisions,before Mac- T1ahon, J. R. Stavely, Attorney - G eneral f or Ontario v. Brunsden.-Judg- ment on ,notion, by those claiming to be heirs and heiresses -at -law of Jaynes Stavely, deceased, to set aside or vary or refer back the interim report of the local master at Goderich, upon the ground that the evidence adduced did not justify hint in, finding that Stavely was illegitimate. The latter had for over forty-fiveears lived in Clinton, in the county of Huron, and was at the time of his death in 1892 about 74 years old.. He came from Bishop Burton in Yorkshire, England. The learned judge holds that the declarations of a person deceased asserting his own illegitimacy cannot be received except as admissions against himself and those who claim under him by some title derived subse- quent to the statements being made ; and that the present came$ within the exception. Motion dismissed. Costs of all parties out of the estate. Holt (Goderich) for the applicants. Garrow, Q. C'., for the plaintiff. FROM RUSSEL,MAN.-Mr.McDonagh, of Russel, Man., a relative of Dr. and Frank McDonagh, of Toronto, and Smith's Hill, is on a visit to relatives in the neighbprhood of Lucknow. He has been absent for about seven years, following the business of butchering and cattle dealer. He speaks in high terms of Manitoba and expresses the opinion that that is the country, for THEmen especially, to do well in. THE NEwa-RECORD was very much pleased to meet the gentleman. THREE HOLIDAY NUMBERS. -The Illustrated Buffalo Express announces • three holiday numbers, for December 17th, 24th and 3lstrespectively. Who- ever remembers the beautiful Holiday numbers which The Express sent out, a year ago need not be assured that what The Express undertakes in this line is sure to he the finest of its kind. There never were published more beautiful papers than The Express sent out a year ago; but the publishers announce that this year's issues will he finer yet. The public has learned to take I'he Express at its word without discount, :and expectations may be pitched ac- cordingly. THE LATE R. HUNT. -The late R. Hunt, brother of Mr. H. Hunt, town, whose death we made Mention of in last week's issue of THE NEws- RECORD, was a native of ('am- bridgeshire, England, where he receiv- ed his early education.

By tog close application to business his health was so unpaired that he found .t necessary to retire about fifteen years ago. The remaining years werequietly devoted to the welfare of his family. Outing his long business career he be- came well known to a large circle of friends who held him in the highest es- teem for his honesty and integrity. He had been connected with St. Andrew's Church, Kippen, since its organization some 30 years ago and did much to advance the interests of the cliutch. Being a man of considerable culture and intelligence his counsel was often sought and appreciated on matters of importance. He was a stta�,unoh Reformer. in politics. He was ntiu,*led to Miss Elizabeth Bell, daugh- terQI the late Robert Bell, Esq., in the ir5tr .1860. He leaves behind an aged _Other, widow, four sons and a daugh- ter to mourn their loss.

MAKING THEIR, MAux.--John .A. Cooper, son of Mr. Wm. Cooper, town, is making his mark. He is editor of several trade publications in Toronto and is meeting with good success. In the not distant future he will shine as one of the literary lights and justly dcservesall the laurels he is winning. He and his brother Charles are also branch- ing out in another line -the wholesale hook trade -and are located at 11 Front Street. 13y perseverance and pluck the firm, styled Cooper & Co., are working; up a good and paying trade.

Owens, who was located in Clinton a few years ago, is now of the prominent legal firm of Reid & Owens. He called, in company with Mr. Ped- ley, the latter gentleman being presi- dent of the Toronto Young Liberal As- sociation. The conversation drifted to politics with the latter gentleman, and West Huron was introduced by him. Mr. Pedley does not at all grasp the situation here, but promised to visit the Riding about the time of the next Dominion • election. Mr. •Owens is doing well and is as jolly as ever., And we must not forget the frequent calls and kindness of Mr. Wm. Lee of the County Orange Hall and Mr. Robert Birmingham, the thoroughly com- petent and ever papular secretary of British America.
