NOTES AND COMMENTS At Toronto on Saturday the election court dismissed the petitions in Glen- garry, North Wentworth, Frontenao, East Wellington and North Waterloo. If you ware a voter, or had a right to vote, at the election on May 29th, 3 ou have a right to cast a ballot at the ref- erendum vote on. Dec. 4th, if you have continuously resided in Ontario siuce that time. The election court met on Monday and fixed dates for the trial of provincial election petitions in Nrrth York for Dec. 19th; Sault Ste Marie for Jan, Oth; Kingston and North Ontario were limed for Toronto for Dec.13th, which menus they will be dropped. The Cautre Brace is the only remaining protest that has not yet been set for trial. The most important measure ever sub- mitted to the people of Ontario, is the Liquor Aot of 1903 -Commonly spoken of as the Referendum, says the Oliuton New Era. It is important because it deals with the present and future well being of the community. Important be- cause it meaus the abolition of the bar. Important because it will promote sob- riety. Important because it makes promiscuous drinking illegal. Import.. mit because it will protect society against several serious abuses. Important be- cause it deals with the welfare of our home and the youth of oar land. And the peeple of this province should show that they realize its Importance by en- dorsing it on Dec. 4th.

His whole life is regu- lated by the demands of the business. The time at which he rises, his breakfast hour, the time given to meals, are all determined by his business. If you toot your little tooter and then lay aside your horn, there's not a soul in ten days will know that yon were born. The man who gathers pumpkins is the man who ploughs all day, and the man who keeps it humping is the man who makes it pay. The man who advertises with a short and sudden jerk, is the man who blames the editor becanse it doesn't work.. The man who gets the business takes a long and steady pull and keeps the local p.uper from year to year quite full. Hs plans his advertising in a 'careful, thoughtful way. and keeps for- ever at it until he snakes it pay. He has faith in all the future, can withstaud a sadden shock, and like the man in Scripture has his basiness on a rock. deemeeeefweeeeeeee The horned screamer of Brazil -a bird of the blackbird family -has on each wing two sharp claws, and a point- ed horn upon its head.

What are our young people doing, now that the long evenings are with us? This is the playtime of the year among 'the farm folks, and there should be weekly gatherings of asocial nature, in every neighborhood, where the yonng people -and the old people, too -may met and get acquainted with each other. These gatherings may be literary, musi- cal, or simply social. The abandonment of the old-time entertainments, county fairs, barbecues, log-rollirigs, quiltiugs, wood -cuttings, public dinners, spelling matches, corn huskings, etc., has well nigh ruined the social life of the rural communities, and there seems no place where village and country folks can meet together. The farm folks are especially in need of this recreation, as they are cut off i from each other by bad roads and lack 1 of suitable meeting places one-half the year, and by hardDwork the other half. 1bis lack of social life is largely to blame a turnip, which weighs 23 pounds. 1 'i for the anxiety of the young people to j leave the farm.

"Not" the gond meu coutinued, "in the sense youmis- creant would have it, but that our great Leeberal party will a' hang thegither in accord and concord." Again the siuuer; "We dinnla care what kind o'cord it is, sae laug as it is a gude strong cord." AUCTION SALES. F. S. Scott, Auctioneer, Brussels Couqhs "Mywife had adeep seatedcough for three years.
