While attempting to drive from his home on the Ilth con., to Kinloss, one of Ed. Stanley's sons, a lad of thirteen or fourteen, met with a rather thrill- ing and painful experience. It seems that the boy undertook to deliver some live hogs to a party in Kinloss, and had gone a considerable distance when the team became stalled in a snow bank. The boy, unable to get them out, went for help. After a good deal of work the team was final- ly extricated. but the sleigh and pigs had to be left on the road until the next day. The clay was extremely frosty, and by the time the boy reach- ed shelter both of his feet were frozen. Medical aid was summoned, and it was at first thought that he would have to be removed to a hospital, but, according to report, the boy is im- proving, and it is expected that the most critical stage has been passed. 0," Opposite Branswiek Hotel, Phone 66, 04 Door North of Kings.

The Kincardine Review relates the following :—Mary Ann and William were rural lovers, devoted. to one an- other, sweet and seventeen. They met the other day in the Kincardine post office, but William was with his respected master, and could not speak to his sweetheart. He winked at her, however, but was severely pained that no bright smirk came from her in reply. A few days later, ho received an explanation in the form of a letter, "Dear Bill," the epistle ran—"The reason I didn't laff when you laffed at me in the post office t'other day was becos I had s boil on my face, and I can't laff. If 1 laff, it'll burst. But I loves you, Bill, boil or no boil, laff or no laff."—Mary Ann. And William was happy again. "I was Crippled, could hardly walk and had to Crawl down stairs at times on my hands and knees. My doctor told me 1 had an acute attack of inflammatory rheumatism. I was in the hospital for weeks, but was scarcely able to walk when 1 left it.
