Clinton Council.
REGULAR MONTHLY MEETING -SOME
LITTLE BREEZES.
The regular monthly meeting of the
Clinton Town Council was held last
Tuesday evening. A quorum was
rath slow in filing in and the members
were called to order by the Mayor some-
what later than the appointed hour.
All were present except councillor&
Gilroy, Taylor and Cooper.
After the reading of the minutes the
Mayor asked if they were correct. when
Councillor Searle vigorously ob-
jected to $25 being granted Goderich
or 'any other township for the irnptove-
ment of their roads, and declared that
individual Councillors could be corn-
• pelted to peg the amount out of their
own pockets.
Mayor Holmes explained that the
appropriation was in the best interests
of the Town. and that the roads lead-
ing to Clinton should -where the ex-
penditure involved was not extravag-
ant -be made as good as possible and
even the townships assisted.
Mr. Searle referred to people in town
buying their groceries and other goods
outside and declared emphatically that
many of our citizens rather worked
against themselves in this way than
make an effort to help themselves.
COMMUNICTIONS
were read from His Honor Judge
Doyle, stating that the Bell Telephone
Company's appeal ease had been dis-
missed without cost of witnesses to the
Town.. From Health Officer Dr. Shaw,
.asking Council to examine west end
'of Mary street drain, as in its present
state disease is hound to result.
Here Councillor Searle introduced
irrelevant matter and was called to
order by the Mayor.
NEW GRAVEL,
Street Commissioner McKenzie re-
ported in favor of procuring 50 cords of
gravel to be put on streets where re-
quired, the same to be procured from
H. Dyde if quality proves satisfactory.
The question of opening up Issac street
is under consideration. The water
table in front of Mr. Geo. Cook's to be
placed"lll proper shape.
FIRE AND WATER.
Chairman Overbury reported in
favor of extending the iron piping
from Mr. Murray's to some point near
McMurray & Wiltse-s store; that an
extra length of suction hose be
purchased for use in case of accid-
ent ; that the present hook connected
with hook and ladder waggon be made
lighter (at present it takes too many
Hien to raise it up to or onto a build-
ing,) and that building for same be re-
paired.
On motion of Searle and Cantelon
the report was amended, authorizing
the purchase of a nozzle and extra
length of suction hose, the Committee
to further report as to probable cost of
pipe and patting in.

The first estimate was for about $500
more, or 21 mills, but there was a gen-
eral desire to keep the rate down to 20
mills. After going over the original
estimate several times and thoroughly
discussing the matter it was cut down
to 2011 as above.
TREASURER'S STATEMENT.
Treasurer Robson's statenient show-
ed a, balance on hand on the 1st of
September of $553.27,
SOME CROSS -FINING.
Mr. Searle again intr'aduced the $25
grant to Goderich township, but just
then in reply Deputy -Reeve Cantelon
suggested that (here should be a side-
walk to the London Road bridge lead-
ing to the House of Refuge, and- Reeve
Kennedy concurred.
Councillor Searle was of opinion if
we did not keep down expenses the
members of Council would require
walk. because their home would be in
the Poor House.
The Mayor was of opinion once upon a
time that 17 .mills was enough to run
any town, but from personal experi-
ence he had good reason to change his
mind.
Deputy -Reeve Cantelon insinuated
that Councillor Searle bad been "chew-
ing the rag" all evening in a general
way, and in particular about the $25
grant. He instanced how Mr. Searle,
as a member of the Council, did not
object to vote $100 or $150 to the same
township for the same purpose a few
years ago. and a similar amount was
also given to Stanley to assist in mak-
ing a hill mote passable leading to
Clinton. If he was not mistaken Mr.
Searle was interested in busiuess at the
time and that might account for his
change of opinion.
Councillor Searle replied that he was
foolish then, and again vigorously
scored people for buying goods out of
town.
Mayor Holmes was surprised at the
attitude of Mr, Searle in criticising the
small grant. He was satisfied, how-
ever, that the electors would endorse
the action of the Council in endeavor-
ing to increase the Town's trade.
Councillor Searle replied that it was
"all a fraud !"
ELECTRIC LIGHT.
Deputy -Reeve Cantelon was of opin-
ion that our electric lights cot too
much money. He knew of several
places where the charge was but 15c.
The contract expires next month.
After considerable discussion the mat-
ter of cost and new contract was re-
ferred to standing committee to report
upon.
NEW BUSINES-RESIONS.
Councillor Searle moved that the
electric light on the corner of Orange
and Rattenhury streets be placed in
the centre of the street and five feet
lower than at present. The motion
paper seemed like an orphan as it pass-
ed from member to mem ber for a
seconder. The fatherly compassion of
Deputy -Reeve Cantelon was moved
to such an extent that he seconded the
motion so that the burning question
might be legally discussed.
(This light was raised a short time
since at an expense of about $10 -En.)
The mover stated that the light was
by far to high, that at present it was
little or no use to the residents of the
street.
Dr. Bruce and others contended that
the light as at present gave better
satisfaction to residents of the Ward
generally than before it was raised.
He was quite aware thatf lower it
would give better light M}r. Searle's
residence and garden, but the people
generally of the Ward must be con-
sidered.
Mr. Searle declined to sit at a Board
where members insinuated he was not
speaking the truth, whereupon he
handed in his resignation to the Mayor
and shortly after left the room.
The resignation could not be taken
up as that order of business had been
disposed of. The Mayor said he (Mr.
Searle) was anxious to keep down the
taxes, and now he wanted to put the
Town to the expense of an unnecessary
election.
Mr. Searle replied that he would pay
the expense6+himself and positively re-
fused to reconsider his determination.
No doubt the resignation will be
accepted at next meeting of Council.
Councillor Bruce introduced the mat-
ter of hiving taxes paid in two instal-
ments, but no action was taken.
Council then adjourned.

baehelor iedginge to bu8lnes e,ach
rrior4ritng, returning in thS• afternoon
and offend/11g the evening at the club
or some ppl0.c�e of amueernet. The idea
of haven a lady companion in my
rarrtblce never entered my head.
True, MY landlady (good old soul)
prepared MY Meals and .cleaned my
rooms, but that, was because 1 had not
time to do it myself, and a man servant
was beyond My means. But in all
els.g I dispensed with woman's aid.
Boost cleaning, sewing buttons on,
lighting the fire, etc„ were all done
with my own hands -nay, at a pineh
I have even washed a pocket handker-
chief.
I desired to stand forth as a living
example of the original Adam and a
proof of the superfluity of the modern
Eve. But my misguided companions
refused to••proflt by my teachings or to
follow ny.exambple. One by one they
fell under female influence, one by one
they married, and then - I cut them
dead. Ah, me! Those free Bohemian
days were happy .ones, as year after
year I pursued my adopted course, in
spite of the continual failing off of my
comrades. Then came a time when m
circle of acquaintances had decreased
so considerably that I began to feel
lonely. Bachelor chums were more
difficult to find than ever. To loneliness
succeeded melancholy, and I grew
miserable and pessimistic.
One friend, to whom I laid bare my
woes, said:
"You keep to yourself too much.
What you ought to do is to lodge with
some family where there are two or
three grown up daughters. They would
wake you up a bit."
This to me, the hitherto ideal advo-
cate of an Eyeless Eden! And yet,
after the advice had been tendered,
several times, I began to think that
such a change might be beneficial. Such
a course need not involve the rendering
up of my tenants, but, as woman still
forrned a part of the world, she might
at least contribute to my amusement.
So, after very serious consideration,
I decided to seek fresh apartments,
with light society thrown in.
Now my trouble commenced. I could
not make the direct inquiry, "Have
you any grown up daughters?" So I
generally viewed the rooms, listening
to the landlady's verbiage, settled the
rent and then casually asked, "Have
you any children?" and the reply would
be "Yes, four, five, or six," as the case
might be; "the eldest is 10 years old
and the youngest two months. But
they are as good as gold, and never
make a bit of noise."
The numberless journeys I made and
the many desultory conversations I
listened to were all to no purpose. No
one appeared to possess grown up
daughters -the eldest was always 10.
Just when I was about to abandon my
search, fortune -or was it fate? -led
me to Myrtle Villa, Paradise Gardens,
Upper Dulwich. The door was opened
by a vision of loveliness, faultlessly
dressed, and with bright blue eyes and
golden hair. "Newly married," thought
I; "well, here at least the eldest won't
be 10!" She invited me in, and then
disappeared; a middle aged lady enter-
ing directly after, we proceeded to dis-
cuss terine. Then came the Inevitable
inquiry as to children.
"I have two grown up daughters,
the younger of whom opened the door
for you,"
At last! Need I say that within. a
week I was installed in Myrtle Villa?
The landlady, a widow, was a genial,
homely woman, and the youngest
daughter, Annie, aged 25, I have al-
ready described, but the other daugh-
ter, Julia, did not impress me favor-
ably. She was neither good looking
fior pleasing, and, without being ex-
actly bad tempered, always Insisted
upon having her own way.
I now seemed to be in a new world.
My boots fore a brilliant lustre each
morning without my aid, and my slip-
pers were laid ready for .roe In the
'evening, and as for lending' me a needle
and cotton -the idea! -if I would only
leave them outside they would be only
too happy.
I no longer needed to seek relaxa-
tion at the club after the labors of
the day, Julia played the piano well,
her 'only accomplishment, while Annie
sung divinely, and thus the evenings
pissed all too quickly, Male acquaint-
ances they did not seem to possess -
yet, stay, there was ane -a Mr. Mal-
colm, whose name I frequently heard
mentioned, but as his calls were always
made In the daytime, I never saw him.
I had rapidly passed into that condi-
tion of mind which raised a feeling of
jealousy on his account, so one day I
questioned my landlay on the subject.
"Oh, he's a very old friend of ours.
Once we thought he would have pro-
posed to Julia, but nothing came of
it."
What a relief. Only Julia!
So time went pleasantly on, and then
-how can I confess it? -my lifelong
creed was thrown to the winds, my
proud ambition humbled in the dust,
and I became a willing slave to the
sex I had so long dlsplsed and ignored.
My only thought now was how, and in
what words, I should beseech my dar-
ling Annie to become my wife. Time
after time, I was on the point of speak-'
ing, but Julia always turned up at the
critical moment.
One evening Julia announced that a
week thence she had an engagement to
play at a concert, Then burst upon me
a brilliant inspiration. I purchased
two stall tickets for the Lyceum for
that same evening, and, making pre-
tence that I had them given to me, I
persuaded Annie to promise to accom-
pany me. This time Julia would not be
able to intrude, and I should know my
fate. In two months' time I should
be taking my summer holiday, which
would fit in Just nicely for the honey-
moon.
On the eventful day I hastened home-
ward with a queer fluttering in my
heart and a flower spray for Annie in
my hat. Julia opened the door and
hardly permitted me to enter before
she Informed me that Annie had been
out in the hot sun and been obliged to
go to bed with a very bad sick head-
ache. My fluttering heart gave one
huge bound and then seemed to etama

What a tnlseratie failure that even-
ing provd'd to bel t do not even know
what the play was called, I was think-
ing all the time of my pour, sick dar-
ling, and not of the acting or the wo-
man who sat by my Side, wearing the
flower spray that was meant for Annie.
The words were still unspoken when
my holidays arrived, and, tearing mys
self away from the two staters, who
stood at the gate .and waved their
handkerchiefs as long as I remained in
sight, it was no feelings of joyful an-
ticipation that I betook myself to Hat t-
inge for rest and recreation.
Rest! Where could I find it? Not on
the parade or pier amidst hundreds of
couples promenading, as I had pictured
Annie and myself doing; not on the
beach, where the Ethiopian musicians
were eternally playing "Annie Laurie,"
"Sweet Annie Rooney," and "Annie,
Dear, I'm Called Away." For a whole
week I wandered aimlessly hither and
thither. Then I could stand it no long-
er. So I wrote a long letter commenc-
ing "Darling," and pouring out the im-
passioned, pent-up love that comes but
once in a man's lifetime, I besought
and beseeched her to take pity upon me
or my lifeless body should surge in the
billows that beat relentlessly upon the
rocks at Beachy Head.
When I had finished I happened to
catch sight of a photograph which I
had purchased the previous day, repre-
senting one of the yachts preparing to.
start on her morning trip, with my own
figure in a prominent position in the
bows.
"Ah," thought I, "I'11 send that to
Julia."
If it were possible, I had now less
rest than before, night or day, while
waiting for the answer. Rising in the
morning with haggard looks and burn-
ing brow, the other boarders would re-
mark that the sea air did not seem to
agree with me, while under the mask
of assumed indifference there raged
within me the fiercest volcano that ever
burned In the heart of man.
At last the reply came, and, bound-
ing up to the privacy of my room, with
trembling fingers I tor open the en-
velope which hid from me -life or
death?
"Dearest, I am yours forever. I ran
not say your proposal was unexpected,
for I have felt that you could mean
nothing less, ever since that evening
when you so openly expressed your
preference for me by taking me to the
theatre-"
What! Whew! Where! ! ! I looked
at the signature -"Julia." Oh, Heav-
ens! I saw it all. I had placed them
in the wrong envelopes, and sent the
letter to Julia and the photograph to
Annie! How Is -raged and fumed and
tore my hair, until at last in sheer ex.
haustion, I sank into a chair and en.
deavored to finish reading the letter.
"Annie thanks you very much for the
photo, and she desires me to tell you
that yesterday Mr. Malcolm proposed
to her and was accepted. We will have
•
the "two weddings on the same day.
Won't that be nice, dear?"
Nice? This was the last straw. Nice,
indeed, for me to be married to a wo-
man 1 did not care for, and at the seine
time to see the one I loved given to
another man! I cannot remember
what I did for the next hour or two
beyond cursing my foolishness and
swearing I wouldn't marry Julia. Then,
when I became calmer, I saw an action
for breach of promise looming. I
thought of all my hard earned savings
of years being swept away by a sym-
pathetic jury to heal Julia's broken
heart. There was no escape for me.
She had my letter, which simply com-
menced "Darling," and as no name
was mentioned in it from beginning tc
end, was it possible that any body of
intelligent men could be brought to be-
lieve that I intended it for Annie, when
I addressed the envelope to Julia? No,
no. I must go through with tt-I would
marry Julia. Yes, and I would teach
her that man is the lord of creation,
and that woman is but a helpmate, and
not an equal, and so In my married life
triumphantly assert those principles
which I had held so long.
Julia married me at the same time
and place as Annie became Mrs. Mal-
colm. I now spend my evenipgs en-
deavoring to solve a difficult problem,
and that is, why do they call woman
the weaker sex?-Tid-Bits.
To Love and Obey.
There is quite a hubbub raised over
the objections of the "new woman" to
the word "obey" in the old marr'aie
s-rviee. Some ministers and justices
of the pease have dropp d the posi-
tive injunction from the service as they
read it and are possibly patronized
more by "happy couples" on that ac-
count. So far that is the only no-
ticeable result of the controversy. It
Is not in evidence that the new wives
are either more or less o'vedlent ac-
cording to whether the wo. d was pro-
nounced or omitted from the servica.a
that united them to their husbands.
During the ages that wives were en-
joined to love and obey they lord -
they did pretty much as they pi: aced
If they were told to da anything They
did not like they were usually equ•il to
the emergency of having the order re-
versed, and as long as they were mind-
ful of the injun^tlon to "love" ihey
were apt to yield becoming obed: >nc»».
The omission of the word from th"
"new woman's" marriage service wi11
hardly"make any difference. If the n w
woman Is capable of loving -and she
would probably resent any Insinuation
to the contrary -she will b"' just as
obedient to' her legal spouse as lvr
mother was. If there is no love in her
matches then she had better drop the
whole marriage semi-•° as Irtconsistent
and repugnant and i uh l ice n legat
contract approved by the leading law-
yers. -Pittsburg Ui,pnt^h.

S. D. Cone, of Aberdeen, South Da-
kota, has made arrangements to plant
100 acres of Russian sun flowers. One
tho ,sand pounds of seed has been pur-
chased, which will be planted with a
horse planter, in rows like corn. The
variety planted is the largest extant;
the flower grows from eight inches to
two feet in diameter. The yield of seed
is thirty to fifty bushels per acre, and
the seed produces ab sit one gallon of
oil per bushel. After the oil has been
:tr'acted the seed ,meal left makes a
splendid cake for cattle and horse feed,
much superior to the product of flax.
The stalks, which will number about
12,80e to an acre, are expected to yield
five or six cords of fuel, about equal to
wood. The work of extracting oil will
be done in Aberdeen.

Shipping Frozen Milk.
Denmark is shipping frozen milk"to
England. Herein is another lessor. for
Canada. When the milk is received
from the farmers it is Pasteurized, that
is, heated to 75 deg. C., and then
immediately cooled off to about 10 deg.
C., and now the freezing is commenced
Half the milk is filled into cans and
placed in a freezing apparatus, where
it will he thoroughly fro',en in the
course of three hours. The frozen milk
is then filled into barrels of pine, the
only kind of wood that can he used.
The barrels, however, are only half
filled with this frozen milk, the bal-
ance beim filled with the unfrozen
milk. This way of tracking has proved
to be the only practical one, as part of
the milk has to he frozen in ord to
keep the whole cold, and part has f►ne
in a flowing state in order to get the
barrels exactly full, which is necessary
in order to avoid too much- shaking up
on the raid, by which the cream would
be turned into butter ;- the floating
masses of ice at the same time prevent
the unfrozen milk in settling the
cream. Milk which is treated in this
way has proved to keep quite fresh for
twenty-six days. Every barrel holds
1,C":7 pounds of milk, and twice a week
there will be shipped fifty barrels,
making m all about 100,000 pounds of
milk a week. In this way the solid
frozen cubes are sold by the plug.

plenty of Englishmen making the same
complaint, so I think my experience is
not exceptional."
