HENSAL,I;.
Tne remains of William Ryle, form-
erly of Ilay township, were brought
Here front Tort William on Thursday
last and taken to the residence of his
brother-in'law in Tuckersmitli, from
which place the funeral took place on
the following day. The deceased was
abont twenty five years of age and
had beezt.working on the raiilway near
Fort William for some tilue. I
Mr. Ireland, insurance agent, was
in town last week. He presented Ur.
lil'ackall of the Queen's with a rine
piece of venison of his owu"liilling iu ,
Muskoka.
.On Friday evening Mrs. Sutherily,
who moved into town sonic months
ago from Hay township, suddenly de-
parted this life after a very brief
illness, The cause of her death was
heart failure. She was in Iter 55th
year,
We are informed that strangers have
been going through this section offer-
ing to tiny turkeys at good prices anti
pay f+I to bind the bargain, requiring
farmers to sign a receipt therefor.
'.this' may be a perfectly, legitimate
transaction, bt.t in the county of
Perth, where the same scheme was
worked, the receipts' were converted ,
into notes of much larger amounts:
Farmers who want to be on the safe
side should not even sign so innocent
a thing, as a receipt, unless they know
tate party they are signing it for.
FARM LABOR PROBLEMS.
At a joint meeting,rof the East and
West Huron's Farmers' Institutes a
strong resolution was adopted dealing
with the farm labor problem. It was
pointed out that, owing to the scarc-
ity of Iabor, the very greatest diffi-
culty is experienced in working the
farms of the province and the gov-
ernment was called upon to adopt an
immigration policy which shall more
thoroughly acquaint the. rural popu-
lation of the British• islands with the
,advantages of Canada, and especially
of Ontario, as a country to which
they should 'emigrate.
Andrew Iihliott, who was the prin-
cipal s; eaker on the o.easion, in a
letter to. The Sun on this question
says " Without doubt the most lin-
portant cltiestion with which the.
faruter§ of Ontario have . ever been
confronted with 'is the help proble'tn,
For 'years past the whole trend hi ag-
riculture. has been in the .line of a
More' extensive systema,. by which more
help is required and very Bauch more
produced, but unless' speedy relief .is
given all this must be changed. Far-
mers are ceasing to ask by What
tn'eans 'can I produce mora ? but are
trying.to devise means by which! they
can get along with'. the least possible'
help.. Today, all over the land, fall

EERLY PAPERS.
In discussing a speech recently de-
livered in t:liicago by William J.
Bryan on the subject of weekly pap.
ers, . the Chicago Public says
Mr. llrysn's idea appears to be
that the daily paper must become
more and more of a newspaper and.
less and les of an editorial paper be-
cause its editorial writers will neves-
sexily cease to be directors of the pol-
icy of the paper, as the expense of
maintenance increases, and .fall into
the place of mere 'writing machines
for capitalists.. Iii place of the daily,
therefore, Mr. Bryan thinks the week-
ly will become the priflciple vehicle of
sincere editorial opinion. Already the
f;rst part of l%Ir. (Bryan's idea is well
nil It rea114:d, '.diets are few, daily
palters now whose editorials express
the thought of their writers. They
are perfunctory or worse, and no. one
is influenced by them. Such influence
�s the daily paper does exercise is
through the manipulation 'of its news
matter—by means of coloring the
facts. The weekly editorial paper is
consequently making an im tortant
place for itself. The difference 'between
the editorials of the daily and those
of the weekly are that the former are
dietatcd by the counting room while
t' c latter emanate, as did the ,editot-
iais. of the type of daily that is now
pearly extinct, from the editorial
chair."

To whom I'm pledged by grace of love's

"Were you not rather startled when, last'
night,

And kissed you?" The effect of her reply
I'll leave for you to glimpse, then draw

"Well, no, not startled," came her an -

Burning Verse. •
• "I wouldn't care if that poet .would
bring in a hundred poems a day," said
the country editor.
"He knows how to write 'em, does
he?" asked the.offce bore. •
"He certainly does," replied the ed-
itor. "He brings them in written on
shingles."
The Ilse of the Preposition.
In addressing his class on the correct'
use of. the parts of speech, this is the
way a college professor caused -con-
siderable merriment
con-siderable.merriment, at his. own ex-
pense:
"Gentlemen," he said, "a preposition
is a bad word to end a sentence with."
• They Knew'Hiin. Not.

And sings of other days; '
• His thousand childrenroam the earth
• And wend their devious ways.

And sad is his "meow;"
• Not one of all -bis prosperous sons
Will recognize him now.
