The following poem was written by Thos, P4Illott, who emigrated to Cana- da from Dinufrieshire in 1812, and be- gan Gleaning a farm in Beverly, Ont, He died of fever, at the age of 80. He was a shepherd in Scotland, and the poem expresses hie disappointment at Canadian pioneer life: — I was weel, and wad be better, Like a fool, I celled my gear, Took a passage owe the water, And a month syne I coin here, l\fercy on us ; sic a country 1 Not but woods wher'ere ane goes Woods wad fright our British gentry, Tho' sae fond o' znuekle trees. Here I gaze till am dizzy, Twist and thraw my neck agee, It's e'en enough to, drive ane crazy-- A.glimpse to Heaven I canna see. Split sticks laid up like an izzet Fences in each stumpy farm ; No' a hill for ane to gaze at -- ,p.'s flat, dull and uniform. Shanties, pigsties, that resemble, Which our ragged lairds enjoy; Roads (macadam bear and tremble) Of infernal corduroy, A' the Egyptian plagues beset us ; Bugs and fleas alternate strive ; Bored and riddled by mosquitos ; Flayed by prickly itch alive. Frogs o' every size and sample, 'Mong the powbeed puddles swarm ; Ane scarce can step but he will trample Ona snake as lang's my arm. Hail stan's big as musket bullets, Knock the wheat craps out o' sight ; Fire flies a' wi' blazing gullets, Flit like bogies through the night. Scorching days wad roast a herein', My Bark back is never dry ; Peals o' thunder people scaring— Pop upon the place, say I. Oh ! for Scotia's blooming heather, Gushing burns, and craggy line ; Oh ! for good auld misty weather. Tho' it weet me tae the skin. Oh 1 for hills o' lofty grandeur, Oh 1 for Cheviot at my heels, Amang the dodit yowes to wander, Where the whistly plover wheels. Whiles wi' grief I'm nearly greetin', • Rue ° I e'er my sheep forsook, Still methinks I hear them bleatin', An' see auld Cheevy's honest look. Oh ! for joys unmixed wi' sorrow, Oh 1 for happy nights I've seen, When wi' pleasure nane can borrow, Maggie met me late at e'em. Ohl for splores I've seen at Moffat, Nights o' frolic, fun and sang— But [ mann stop, or loons will laugh at My disconsolate harangue. Died, Aged 124. The Owen Sound Sun gives the foI- lowing :—Joe Coturc is dead 1 And in his death Owen Sound loses one of its best-known figures. A man of giant frame, and strength consistent with his size, he was a conspicuous figure, whether on the streets, or in his boat sailing up the river. Joseph Coture was a remarkable character. Accord- ing to his own story, he was born in 1785, and was therefore 121 years old. His mother was a squaw, his father a Frenchman. Many interesting stories are told of the old. man. On one oc- casion, it is said, he went to buy a barrel of salt, for his fish. The mer- chant jocularly said, "Joe, you can have Ft barrel if you'll shoulder it." "All right 1" growled Joe ; ' and stoop- ing, he caught the barrel by the chines, and with a mighty heave hoisted it over his head and set it across his broad shoulders. Then, grinning at the discomfited merchant, he walked off, carrying the barrel, When one looked at the man, a year or so ago --six feet, -four inches tall, and broad in proportion—the story was easy to believe. Joe was a great boxer and wrestler, and, it is needless to say, a very successful one. But with all his strength, and all his love for game, he was never•quarrelsome. He was always considered one of Owen Sound's most peaceable and law-abiding citizens. Pity This Poor Girl. Growing fast—yes,. into weakness, but without strength. Tired of course she is—pale and thin too. She doesn't eat enough and digests far too little. This condition is so common, but how seldom noticed even by fond parents. Gii+e her Ferrozone—then watch her appetite improve—see her cheeks and lips grow ruddy—wateh her spirits rise. Thisain is simply the result of eating and digesting enough, and thereby nourishing the blood, brain and nerves. To a woman Ferrozone restores strength she has lost—to a girl it brings strength perhaps she never knew. You'll try Ferrozone, 50c. at all dealers, It cost Raleigh township $088.00 to have the Provincial auditor audit the books of the township. In the last forty years accounts, a discrepancy of only $5.55 was found. CONYAINS NO ANIMAL OILos SAT 18 et NOR ANY MINERAL. •p UTS' ,.SORES *BURNS.
