MOTOR 'VEHICLES NOW LI- CENSED Legislation bas been en- acted by the Ontario Government respecting motor vehicles, giving them the same legal right1 as any vehicles drawn by horsed. Each owner of a Motor car has now to pay a license to the governineut for permissio to run his machine For the benefit of the public we here recite the wording of the license issued to Mr. Tisdall.cen- cerning his motor. It.reade as follows; "J. P 'Estill% Clinton, is hereby licene sed to use his motor vehicle during the year 1904 upon•the highways in the province of Ontario in accordance with the provisions of 3 Edward VII, Cap. 27, arid the said motor vehicle is reg.'s- tered in the Department of the pea. sinciel Secretary as number : 243 Signed, J R. Stratton, Provincial Sec- retary." It is to be hoped that the time is not far .distant when horses thriven on the highways will be no More afraid of autom.•bilea than they are of bicycles, for there is no doubt the automobile is come to stay. -Those 'driving horse.e should use every pr -e (elution when meeting a motres and always bring their horses tali, very slow pace, as the horse is liablato'bolt to one side when opposite the mobile. )1 r. Tisdall -is • More than anxious to avoid accidents, and whi•e using every precaution himself w ould.advise driV- ers to do t he same? and :in..tbe casesi here ladies are driving, would advise. turning. into a gate fence. where convenien t. This license also ,gives Mr. Tisdall the right to run his tinteh- ine through the streets at ten mi 111 an' hour, and on.country roads at fifteen. Horses left standing should.be sOcures ly th•d, unless some one is in charge,. foi• you cannot tell when the automo- bile will melte its appearance, and some injury ensue fur which there Is no redress. .A PRETTY MAY WEDDING. -4f we are eatrierl away.tvit tamers tons wit lout any trouble tli's o drop it; the tlottet$,,.tHeIl thtit' Jo .
