Mr. Justice Rose, n --the Bailey vs. King cage, ha,s decideI'that it in such cases the(Statute o , Limitations is never applicable, as "the wrong con- tinues from moment to moment so long as the defendant continues to keep away from her husband," That is good common sense as well at good law. How shall eggs be sold? In Canada we have been in the habit of selling them by the dozen, thereby affording opportnnity for considesable specul,- tive proceedings In Great Britain it hes become a practice to sell eggs by the round. This is regarded as a fairer method. It certainly gives the person with the hens whi..:h lay the biggest eggs better value for their en- terprise. But it entails somewhat greater labor, and ail is probably the chief reason why the weighing system has not been popular. ST.

A large and energetic com- mittee has been appointed to make the necessary arrangements, and we have no dauht tut this pie-nie will be the greatesteand best affair of the kind ever held in this section. at his parents residence. When the truth became apparent he locked up his office and started for his home, on reaching which his whole system col- lapsed and a week and three days end- ed his bright career. Dr. Dawson was young man whom to kuow was to ad- mire, ambitious amiable and with a profound regard for things sacred. That his sudden taking off was deeply felt by those who have had the pleas- ure of his acquaintance was evidenced by the very large procession that fol- lowed his remains to rest in the Lang. side cemetery. Much sympathy is being expressed for his aged father and mother and other sorrowing friends.

A Sad Coming Home A feeling of deep sorrow has been felt throughout, the community at the death of IJr. Alexander Dawson which occurred ie his father's home on the St!C6Ild C011CORSI0LI. Dr. Dawson taught for four years in the brick school house on the gravel road known as the Grey Os school, making a name for himself in the teaching profession. He then went to Philadelphia, where in 1896 he was graduated as Dbctor of Dental Surgery from the Pennsylvania Dental College find hart succeeded in estab- lishing tot li..11.,;L d lucrative practice in the stete of Iowa. Unkaown to himself the dread spectre consumption had secured him in its deadly grasp. A severe attack of Is grippe from which he never oompletely recovered, during the winter he studied at Phila- delphia affected his lungs and ended in consumptionlie was a young man of sober and . industrious habits of a quiet disposition, of irreproachable character, nothing lemonstirative. Rev. F. A Maclzoinan, whose church he attended regularly till he left home for College, coeducted the funeral service Drowned in the Stikene . .,. . We regret exceedingly to learn of the death by drowning in the Stikene River, of Mr. Robt. J.

Neill that conveyed the sad intelligence of the accident to his frienths. Big ImPleinent Delivery Oge of the largest deliveriee of Agri- eultud implements that has ever been witnessed in Lucknow, took'plaee from the Grand Trunk station here on Saturday laet by Mears. Webster & Andrew, the local agents of the celebrated Frost & Wood's Implement Company. There were fifty teams in the line of procession, and each wagon was heavily laden with new farm implements whidi not only be- speake encouragement for the push and enterprise for Messrs. Webster & Andrew, but also shows that the far- mers in the surrounding townships are in a prosperous conditiun, for the total cost of the n3achinery purchased in this big delivery will aggregate nearly $5000. Thie is certainly a healthy sign of the times, and we sin- cerely hope that the bright- promises presented to our farmers in the pre- sent grand outlook for a bountiful har- vest will be fully realized. Mews. Webster dt Andrew were asaisted in the delivering by Mr., J, ff. Thomp- son, ef London, and Mr. W. Richard- son of Toronto,. and after all the machinery had been loaded and the procession ended, the farmers web° entertained to dinner, at both the McGarry House and McDevitt & Ileron'e hotel,by the implinient dealers Messrs. Wooster & Andrew are only comparatively a yonog firm in the iln- pleinent businees, but from the auc- cm; of this their first big delivery, they thoroughly understar.d their business, and are bound to make it a success. For the Fair Bez. All women ride gracefully but few can dismount in any but an. awkward manner. A woman's wheel is au awkward machine even for the most graceful to dismount from. There is a right and a wrong way to dismount so far as grace is concerned The awkwasd way, though the one usually taught, is to slow down, anti as the left pedal reaches the lowest point, to slip to the ground with the right foot The graceful way, sometimes cailed the "French dismount," is to stand on the left pedal after the wheel has slow- ed up, and then step to the ground on the left side of the wheel with tbe right foot. All women should adopt this method, • .14. lt,A1641b. • et Decoration Day The member of Lucknow Lodge of Oddfellows, together with the mem- bers of the Workman Lodge, and other aocieties in the village will hold a decoration day on Friday afternoon, and pay their annual visit to the graves of their departed brethern in the Ktnloss cemetery. The brethern will assemble at the hall at four o'clock and beaded by the brass band of the Musical Society, march in a body to the cemetery Grain Elevator For some years past a good deal of complaint has ken made by farmers who brought their grain here over the lack of elevators in the grain houses at the station, but it is now settled beyond any further question of doubt that in future we are to haveallthe faculties for convenient hendling of grain. Messrs. Hay Bros. have let the contract for the erection of a large elevator here, and the work of erection is to be commenced at once, and it is also rumored that M. Holmes intends putting in an elevator in his store house. A third one, however, ie also to ba erected by a joint atock company composed chiefly of the leading farm- ers of the section and many of the business men of the village, so that if the three elevators are in operation our village will be in a position to handle all the grain grown in the surrounding townships. — Black Horse This popular summer resort is rapidly coming to the front. It is one of the nicest places for a picnic or to spend a day, in the neighborhood. There are lots of good boats on the lake The fishing is very good some parties this year having wade hauls of between twenty and thirty good pike. The grounds have this year been fitted up for picnics, a good landing having been built at the picnic grtunds, a kitchen put up with a stove and tables made for the convenience of visitors. A good outlet has been made between the two lakes so that a boat can be run between them. All these improve inents have been made by Mr Joseph Hewitt. Mr. Hewitt is • live man and when be starts in to do anything he does it well, and be has made Black Horse second to no other place as the ground for a day's picnic or fishing. Parties intending going there fen a day Rhould write Mr. Hewitt and make arrangements with him for his 6D0 ooats. As a fisherman Mr. Hewitt has no supericr and he knows every weed on the lake tinder which there is a hungry pike. . Another Pest T:re Department of Agriculture has sent out circulars regarding the ap- perance of a now pest, known ES the gall louee, which affects spruce. The insect attacks the leaf and enters the immature bud, and the only rea;ly effective remedy is to clip off the galls which form during June and July. After the producers have passed out of the galls there is no course availing available but to cut down the infected tree. The departmeat requests that whoever finds the galls on their trees, should communicate the fact and all the particulars so far as ascertained to the Bureau of Forestry, Parliament Buildinge, Toronto, MAPID CITY ritiC;ir.ops are looking good after the Roadwork has commenced this week - in this section. Mrs. Ross of Langside renewed old acquaintances hear last week. Mr. McLeod, of Hamilton, visited the residence of Mr. James Fisher a few days ago. Mr. .MeLennon of Lochalsh spent a few (lays visiting Mrs. Murchison last week. LAILs The 'Foresters' sermon was well atten • ded and the address given by Rev. 8, M. Whaley was ono not easily for- fotten. If our Foresters' sermons con- tinua to be so well attended and such able discourses given, the day will be one of the moat -interesting (luring the year. A number of members from St. Helens, Kintail and Dungannon were present. After returning to the hall votes of thanks were given the visiting_ brethren and Rev. Mr. Whaley. Not many placea. can compete with us for weddings. On Tuesday of last week we had the pleasure of attending two weddings, Miss Mary Hogan, of this place and Mr. Stephen Martin, of Port Albert, were made one. Rev. Father Dixon performed the ceremony. A Is.rge nunaber attended the marriage at the Church in Kingsbridge, in the morning, and_returned with a number of invited guests to the re.sidence of ,the bride's father, Mr. John Hogan, where a very sumptuous dinner was waiting the wedding party. The bride was neatly and tastefully dressed in cream cashmere, trimmed with chiffon and ribbon. The young couple were supported by Mr. John Hogan, jr. and Miss Martin, of Ds,troit. The num- ber of very nice presents received by the young couple were a good proof of the high estimation entertained for the young and happy pair. After spend. ing it very pleasent efternoon and being entertained to a tea equal to the mid-day meal in excellence, the older people returned to their homes and the young people spent the evening in social amusement in Mr. Young's hall at Kintail. The best wishes of the community are extended to the young married eouple.
