hours afterwards,

—Mr. R. Trimble, Flesherton, re-
ceived a letter from a gentleman re-
siding in Holland township, the letter
being posted at Markdale. The con-
tents of this letter were a surprise to
Mr. Trimble, and were worthy of -be-
ing made public. They consisted of a
dollar bill and a note to the effect that
the writer some 48 years ago had pur-
chased half a pound of tobacco, price
"tenpence," and which had never been
paid for. The note quaintly ended
with the following postscript ; "Quit
tobacco 20 years."
—The village of Chatsworth, incor-
porated about a year, is becoming
noted for elopements, three having
taken ,place from that place within a
few months. Last summer the wife
of Thos. Givens, of Taylor's planing
mill, eloped with a neighbor. They
now reside in Manitoba. About ten
days ago the wife of a respectable
Holland Centre man took her depar-
ture with a neighbor, who took train

ment, is said to have left by C. P. R.

other purposes to points within the
Dominion are permitted, providing
each shipment is accompanied by a
certificate of inspection, stating that
the stock are free from disease, and
have not been in contact with affected
animals.

Brussels.
Last week .7 -no. Wright's Orpington

The closing down of the Salt Well
has made a marked difference in the
shipping business from the G. T. R. as

block should not 1)e kept in operation.
The Post suggests that if Ransford
Bros. refuse to resume operations or
lease the works to those who will, that
:i public meeting be called to discuss
the propriety of putting down another
salt well, on the cooperative plan, and
build a block adjacent to the G. T. R.
and thereby do away with the long
haul of salt and coal as in the past to
and from the Grand Trunk.

DESERT SMEP HERO F18..
Their Lonely, Weary bite Teem to
tlriva 'Them Crazy.
Do you realize what it means to
watch G,000 sheep alone in the desert?
you have read weird, grewsome stories
of the horror of the solitary lighthouse
keeper's life, but compared to the days
Of the Mexican shepherd these of the
average keeper of the light are Oiled
with gayety and noise. Even with
their ane or two dogs the shepherds
often go insane, and were 1t not for the
company of their shaggy collies the
lunacy among them would rise to an
almost incredible percentage, if we are
to believe those who have followed the
sheep in the desert andtherefore may
be supposed to know,
ono in old Santa Fe, N. M., I met a
man who for twelve years had follow-
ed the sheep. His work was done. All
day long he sat in a chair in the rear
of a little dobe store, crouched over,
gibbering to himself, bleating—an idiot,
He still saw his sheep swaying like a
great white wave among the sage-
brush, and ever in his ears sounded the
killing monotone of their bleats. One
boy, though fifteen years of age, is
mentally no further advanced than the
average child of five, IIis father is a
shepherd, his mother dled when be was
four years old, and his father took him
out upon the range. .All his life bas
been spent among the sheep. He is one
with them today.
How is it possible, then, you ask, that
men are to be found willing to watch
them? It is very easy. Sheep herding
is a lazy job at best, and the "greaser"
is the laziest creature on earth. For $20
a month he is willing to sit in the sand
and listen to the never ending bleating
until the little mind he has Oyes way
and they fetch him in from the range
insane. He is glad to take the chance
for $20 a month.
The greaser is not the only shepherd
in the west. On the vast ranges of Ne-
vada and Wyoming you may run across
an occasional college man tending the
sheep. Once, indeed, a college professor,
ill of consumption, undertook to follow
5,000 bleaters for the summer. In au-
tumn they 'found him insane, on his
hands and knees among the sheep,
bleating with them. Day after day his
eyes behold only a brilliant turquoise
sky, in which hangs a sun of brass; an
ocean sweep of sage flecked sand and
a slowly moving, compact mass of
sheep. His ears hear no sound save the
steady "Baa, baa!" day and night, af-
fecting him as the Chinese criminal of
ancient days was affected by the regu-
lar tap, tap of a hidden drum.
A.nd yet so long as the desert contin-
ues to provide food for the "bleaters"
so long will shepherds go mad among
the flocks, and for ten years the desert's
greatest value to man has been the
food it has offered the sheep, nor yet is
the store depleted.—Pilgrim.
The Wickedness of Growing Old.
Here are the three deadly symptoms
of old age: Selfishness, stagnation, in-
tolerance.
If we find them in ourselves we may
know we are growing old, even if
we
are on the merry side of thirty. But,
happily, we have three defenses, which
are invulnerable. If we use them we
shall die young if we live to be a hun-
dred. They are: Sympathy progress,
tolerance.
The first is the hardest to most of
us, because our own little prison of
the actual is so immensely important to
us. There is no denying the fact that
when you have a toothache yourself It
is bard to have to consider other peo-
ple's aches. But it can be done, though
it generally involves physical effort, for
we must bestir ourselves and act. The
mere feeling of sympathy expressed by
action is a poor, useless thing, but the
soul, determined not to grow old, can
force the body to such physical effort,
though there is no denying that it is
hard work.
Toothael,e.
Toothache is something to be dread-
ed. Until a dentist can be consulted
and the exact cause of the disturbance
located and professionally treated it is
an excellent thing to moisten the finger
and, after dipping it into some bicar-
bonate of soda, rub it on the gum round
the sore tooth: It is also a relief to
mix a teaspoonful of this bicarbonate
of soda in half a glass of warn water
and rinse the mouth with some every
little while, holding a little in the
mouth for a few seconds so that it
penetrates all the crevices. The soda,
being an alkali, serves to neutralize the
acids in the mouth, which are often the
cause of toothache.
Knew the Crowd.
A street preacher in a west of Scot-
land town called a policeman who was
passing and complained about being
annoyed by a certain section of the au-
dience and asked him to remove the
objectionable ones.
"Weer, ye see," replied the cautious
officer, "It would be a hard job for me
tae spot them, but I'll tell ye what I'd
doe if I were you."
"What would you do?" eagerly in-
quired the preacher.
"Just gae round wi' the hat!"
Rix Line.
"Yes," said the lecturer, "I'm deal-
ing in furniture these days."
"How is that?" asked a listener.
"'Braking one night stands under a
lecture bureau, with the help of the
time tables."
When to Cnt Weeds.
She—When should a young widow
discard her weeds? He—Oh, I don't
know,1
but I suppose she should cut
ip
them out just as soon as she wants to
raise a second crop of orange blossoms,
Decision of character will often give
to an inferior mind command over a
superior.—Wirt.
What Causes Snoring.
When asleep, people that snore
breathe through the mouth instead
of the nostrils which are choked tip
with catarrh. Just use Catarrhozone
before retiring and you'll quicklyCiit
the snoring habit, By destroying
the rause of catarrh and healing the
membranes, ('atarrhozono makes a
eontplete mire in every ease ; it cleans
the nostrils, stops thelr
