arowTo Sweep AStore
Au American merchant gives'hewiews
as to the proper way of sweeping a store,
which we commend to the attention of
march rnts hereabout : We dont use a
creaky old sprinkling pot to sop the floor
.all over in puddles when we sweep.
.No, sir : We have wet sawdust, and I
put a row of it across one end ref the
store and sweep that right along to the
•other end, just like a regiment marching
.across a ten acre lot. It catches all the
dirt. and carries it along. If it gets a
little dry, I add soma more. Some folks
':scatter sawdust all over the floor, but
,that's no good ; the • reason for using
sawdust is to avoid wetting the floor all
.over and to • have something that will
Absorb the dust.
-Pickard vs eamweU.
This action brought by Mr. Robert
• Pickard against Mr. George Samwel],
•.assignee of the estate of James Pickard,
to establish a claim for services rendered
•.•amounting to $15,903, was set down
/or trial before justice Street at the last
,:spring assizes at Goderich, and when
.called was referred ,to Mr; S. Malcomson
to dispose of. Dar. Malcoanson attended
'Exeter last June and took all: the evid-
, trace. The• case was then argued in
S.;oderich in July, and judgment was
reserved. Judgment was, as we under-
stand, given some days • ago adversely
to the plaintiff, and, of course, in favor
of the defendant. The result of this
.action will ' still further increase the
dividend that Mr. Pickard's estate will
pay.. Mr. Collins for assignee, Mr.
;Dickson for Mr.. Pickard,

The first snow of last fall fell on the

to coyer the ground. It was followed by

they were last season.
Our contemporary is badly astray in its
report of the Pickard estate sale, held
Inst week. It reports the sale ne being a
failure, and nothing sold save the stores.
It bus surely drawn upon its subtile im-
agination for information, for bona fide
sales of the more valuable parts of the
estate were made, as see last week's
Muss for parttcuhars.
The market on Saturday was as usual,
quite lively, buyers and sellers being

was 17e per doz, which would not indicate

Unwary persons are beguiled into as
attempt to pick out six figures from a row

make them amount to 21. After the
victim has wasted two or three hours in
vain attempts to solve the problem .it
dawns upon him that it is utterly impossi-.
ble, biasmtich as the numbers are all odd,
and the sum of six of them must inevitably
be an even one. •

Oh Saturday evg. about 12 o'clock two
persons attempted to effect an entrance
into Mrs. Smith's residence, opposite town
hall, when the old lady, who resides alone,
made her whereabouts known by discharg-
ing the contents of a seven shooter at her
would-be assailants. They made good
their escape by rolling off the roof of a one
story annex at rear. One of the parties
was attired in female garb. 1VIrs. Smith
says she could have shot them, but this
time merelywished to scare. If again
attempted, she says blood will be drawn.
