given on Monday evening of last week
at Mr. W. H. Scholdice's orchard tinder
the auspices of the Walton ladies' guild
WAS well attended, considering the fact
that the Brussels football cxeursion to
Mildmay rind also the Sunday school
extension to Kincardine were billed for
the same day and detracted somewhat
from the attendance. Nevertheless the
receipts were in the neighborhood of e50,
The ladies had provided plenty of good
refreshments, while the music furnished
by the Brussels band was oleo greatly
appreciated end praised. During the
everting several messages were received
stating that Brueeele football club had
been successful at Mildmay end asking
the hand to meet theta at the station on
their return home. This caused the
band boys to leave earlier than iutebd-
etl, the ladies' guild kindly giving their
coneett thereto. Taken all in all the
garden party was a complete success,

adapted to the purpose.,,. Mr. W. T.

HARLOCK.
HORSES Diiw —Mr, John Mills met
with a serious loss a few days ago, he
having lost three horses, two of them
being valuable end the other it good
working horse. They died of a disease
which the veterinarian call "spinal
mininigitis," caused, they claim, by the
animals having eaten or drunk some
poisonous matter in the form of animal
or vegetable decay. Certain reports
Iowa been circulated to the effect that
dead animals had been left lying around
in the manure pile last winter, and then
the manure was spread upon the pasture
field this spring. Mr. Mills would like
the public, to understand that these re-
ports are utterly (alae, as there were no
dead animals of any kind around the
place. Drs. Waghorn and McGregor
went through tine fields and stables and
could find nothing that they could bin me
for the horses taking the disease. One
thing they think might have caused it
is that the horse, ped access to a spring
creek and this creek is ander drained
about 100 rode. They think that poss-
ibly a dead muskrat may have lodged
inehe (Rein, and in this way the horses
ha"e drunk the poison that caused their
death, but this is only supposition.
However, Mr, Mills intends having the
water analyzed end will take every
possible means of finding out the cause
of this trouble.

Livingston had passed away during the

nsuing in a tow hours. The deceased,

Jones, of \Velkerton, and had been mar-
ried less then two years. Since occupy-
ing their comfortable home on Wallace

nent in Social circles, and the cutting off
of ler bright young life is particularly

A Rural School Trustee.
Froom the Toronto Star.
A story is told in one of the rural
papers about a young man who drove
across cOtllliry t0 apply for a place a9
teacher in a country school. He saw
the leading trustee, and atter supper
was sitting by the door with him when
a spotted bug attracted their attention,
The fanner asked the young man if he
knevt what it was, and to show hie
knowledge he said, "Yes, it is a Coccin-
ella eeptem unctate." To this the bu-
rner replied that it wee a lady -bug, and
be would not favor having a school
teacher In that section who didn't know
a Indy-bug when he saw it. The joke
iS supposed to be on the trustee, but we
do not see it in that light. He gave
the young man a rebuke that he needed,
but which was probably lust on him, as
be evidently went away relating the
incident and not appreciating its value
as applied to himself,
'here is not much need in a back line
school house of Ontario for a teacher
who can see a Coccinella septem punctata
crawling in the truetee's doorway. He
would be telling the children that Ile had
seen en Aster polumbariue circling over
the school house and had heard a Srrnia
ulula crying in the bush the night be-
fore. A rural school section would be
terrorized by such a man, giving bugs
and birds fiercer names than those of
any wild beasts the residents had ever
heard of,
The old farmer had evidently sized up
his visitor before the lady -bug appeared
on the scene, or he would not have
asked him if he knew what it was. He
probably expected some Ruch smart•
aleckism ae the giving of the technical
name of that bug, and then he replied
with a sarcasm that his visitor was not
keen enough to perceive. As this young
man will find out in time, there are a
lot of very shrewd old men sitting on
the doorsteps of farm houses on the back
lines of this province.
