APPOINTMENTS ARE NOW BEING MADE cKib Druggist and Optician on TRH WINGRAll A VA C Londesboro, We are Imlay to learn filet Ivan, the little son of Mt', and Mrs, 1Vm. Ross is eot it,apx'oving, Thi little fel. low has been n patient eufferer from leakage of the heart and general wealtnecas for wine time, A very stet faits and almost fatal ac- cident befell George, the little 2 yeer- old son of Rubt, Caldwell on Fvidtty afternoon of last week. The little fel- low was out paying near when) his father wee digging postholes, He had ttie little hammer and was busy nail- ing boat ds, ae he saki, Jo a short time, his father happened to iniac hien and thought of the postholes near where the child bad been, He ran along there mid in the very Wit one he carne to, he saw the feet of the lit- tle fellow projecting out of it, while hie head wati buried under water a foot and a half deep, Mr, Caldwell quickly pulled hire out, but found that he was quite urreonecious, but owing to his knowledge of how to treat a drowning person and the presence of znind in using that know- ledge he su'ceeded in getting the water out of the little .fellow's sto►n- aeh, before the doctor arrived, 13 e was soon conscious, and was able to rtin round again almost as usual. It • was certainly a close call and Mr. Caldwell will not forget it for some time. Another serious accident happened in our village on Saturday morning of last week ith': and Mrs, Will, Long- man and three children were just !paving home in the buggy, when two cats which were fighting in the yard separated and one of them sprang up on the shaft of the buggy and then on to the horse's neck, The terrified horse dashed on to the road, and ran with frantic speed down to Mr, Rilev'e corner, where he turned the buggy over upsetting Mee. Longman and children out on the hard road, break- ing Mrs, Longrnau's leg oR just above the ankle. The sharp broken bone watt projecting through both stock- ing and boot. She also received sever- al severe bruises and lost much blood from the broken leg. Luckily, the stocking helped to cheek the flow of _ blood until De. Allison arrived. Dr. Milne was also called. At last re- ports Mrs. Longmati is doing as well as possible under the circumstances, One of the children was badly bruised, while one escaped unharmed, and the young; baby which was sleeping in Mrs. Longrnan's arms was not even wakened. Mr. Longman was just putting the halter into the back of the buggy, when the horse took fright and so was unable to catch the horse in time to prevent. the accident. Howick.

No. 13, was presented asking to have a By-law passed for the pur- pose of having debentures issued on the said School section for two thousand six hundred and twenty five dollars for the purpose of building a new school. Moved by Crawford and Underwood—That the Reeve and Clerk be appointed to have Bylaw prepared and debentures sold—car- ried, Tenders were then opened for the new abutment for Hamilton's bridge. Moved by Crawford and Edgar—That the tender of John Tilker, je., to do all the excavating and furnish all material for $1 75 per cubic yard be accepted—carried. The question of putting a new fence around the Tp. property was consider- ed. Moved by Crawford and Winter that the Council do not put the fence up this year—carried.

West of the 15th con. spent a few days last week with friends in Ttirnberry. Mr. G. Doubledee is preparing to cement his stables and do some other building this summer. Four of the pupils of the boundary school are going to try Entrance this year ; we wish them all success. Mrs. Halliday and daughter lll.iss Halliday of Wingham spent Sunday last at the home of 'Mr. and Mrs. Doubledee. The very heavy rains this week will do considerable damage to the crops in this vicinity, in some fields, the crops were under a foot of water. The creamery waggons are very plentiful on the Boundary this spring; there are Wingham, 13luevale and Teeswater waggons, so the farmers have a chance to choose where to send their cream. Morris.

Milson has one of the finest drivers in this part of the country; couptiug hie bus home be owns six, Two of our Nimrods went hunting on the 24th, and instead of bringing home dead carcases, they brought four beautiful live foxes, needy half grown. You might travel the wide -world over, and not find more lovely shade trees than those of Lucknow, In their beauty they seem to be almost a reflection of Paradise. Messrs. Reid and. Vansickle were in town. on Saturday afternoon; while here Mr. Reid purchased a beautiful driver, one that would call forth ad- miration from John Swells, and everyone knows that Jack knows a good horse when he sees one, In your editorial paragraph column of last week you spoke beautifully about heroes, and heroines,. Yes some of the heroic ones on the Titanic were brave, because, of the inevitable. With 'you, we do' not detract from their heroism, but we think those who are livingvaliantly, faithfully i and fearlessly n spite of environ- ments, are equally as great.. We hope the Royal party from Ot- tawa vil1 not visit Toronto frequent ly, for we weary of reading iu the daily papers of his wonderful person- ality, of his heroic walk in the rain to get his watch fixed and how that he stepped into a puddle of water in order to allow a lady to pass and all about the precioue little lap dog "1+'ido" being lost, and how the tele- phone message "quick" announced his recovery ; all this and Sea rnany other wonderful things too nutnerous to mention, as the auction bills .ay. DEATH'S DOINGS. --On the 21th inst. there passed through the valley of the shadowy of death a former well-known resident of the town of Lucknow in the person of Mr. Angus McLeod, aged 48 years. For many years, he. ran a merchant tailoring establ ieh- ment in the town, and his •fantiliar face will be greatly missed by all. Then on Friday, Mr, A. G. Tweedy of Kinlougb, one well-known to the peo- ple of Lucknow, at the age of 57 years, passed over to the great majority. Mr, Tweedy was in Lucknow on Thursday, hub on Friday bad passed beyond the bar. Only a few weeks ago we chronicled the death of Mr. 1'. Doyle. On Friday of last week, his brother Thomas in the salve home died of pneumonia. Thus by the re- moval of our loved ones we are con- tinuously reminded of our "mortality and the uncertainty of life.
