Replying to Mr, Whitney, Mr, Clark (Northumberland)said that Huron could be so divided as to avoid the "sacrificed" appearance of which the Premier had cum- plained in other constituencies and which characterized the three ridings as proposed by the redistribution bill. The Premier replied that the Government's chief labor so tar had been to re- store the ridings to fair and just dimensions, If Huron, for in- stauce,hud not been so carved and twisted by the Liberals, neither Mr, Cameron nor Judge Garrow could ever have found a seat in the house.

Ilow To MARE ACURFEW,—Every family should have a curfew which should positively "ring to•night,'' and every night if needed. These curfews are inexpensive and can be hone -made. Take a piece of'siding two feet long and whittle one end down to a handle, then take the child that needs the curfew and lend hint over a barrel, Now take the piece of siding in the hand and use 11 for a clapper, I'ut it on lint. Divide the strokes even and see that none amiss. Good for a boy or girl up to the age of 16, and applications arc warranted to 0010 the most pro- nonneed case of street looting that exists. The music the curfew makes is finer than singing "Where is my wandering boy to -night?" An advertisement in THE STANDAtto pays, The Altar.
