According to the Woodstock Sentinel
Review, a large asylum is to be erected
at Woodstock in place of the Provincial
Reformatory for Boys so long promised.
Rev. Dr. McMullen, of Woodstock,

ing $230 and given a vacation by his
congregation. He has just completed
the 43rc1 year of his pastorate.
The applications of the Canadian Mar-

It will be a matter of regret to the
many friends of Rev. F. A. Cassidy, iI
late of Guelph, to know that Mrs. Cas-
sidy's health has been very poor since '
she went to Japan, and unless an im-
provement takes place it is not unlikely
that Mr. Cassidy will be forced to re-
linguish his plans and return to Ontario.

ALEX. KELLY,
Wingham P. O.
Pew people know, that a man, bulk
for bulk, is stronger than an ox, but it
appears that such is the case. The
matter was tested not long since at a
fair its America, one of the attractions of
which was a contest of a yoke of oxen
against an equal weight of tnen. A drag
was loaded with granite blocks,woiglling
in the aggregate 4,050 pounds, The
yoke of oxen that made the trial weighed
3,220 pounds, and 20 men, allowing 160
pounds to the man, were set against
thein. The men took hosts of the e dra
ff
first and walked off with it covering a.
distance of 05 feet in the epaco of two
minntea. The oten at their trail moved
only 85 feet in the same length of time,
and the leen were accordingly declared
wiftt rr--•Pearpon't Weekly.
CEMENT WORKS.
I am prepared to execute tell orders for
cement work of every. description, in-
cluding silos, sidewalks, ?stable floors,
foundations, etc. I have every facility
necessary and can da the; work right.
All work guaranteed. Prices and terms
reasonable. Cement for sale.
CHARLES BARBER,
' WINGIIAM.
A paper gave the following essay on
boys, which was recently prepared by a
little girl in one of the parish schools:
,,Boys are men that have not got as big
as their papas, and girls are women that
will be young ladies by and by. Man
was made before woman. When God
looked at Adam He said to Himself,iweil,
try think I can do better if I ggain.
'
And then he made Eve. God liked. Eve
so much better than Adam that there
have been more women than men in the
world ever since. Boys are a trouble,
They wear out everything but soap. If
I had my way, half the boys in the
World would be girls, and the rest would
be dolls. My papa is so nice that I
think he must have been a little girl
when he was a little boy." -
