All the ministers oi: Wingham are

if those Win5•I10111t05 are not up to

Clinton won -from Goderich to the
tune of 6-1 in the protested baseball
.game played off in Clinton on Mon-
.day .evening. Goderich ought to be
satisfied now that Clinton is more
,than her ,patch.
Sir Thomas Lipton's boat did not
-win the America's Cup but . Sir
'Thomas himself has won the good will
and admiration of a Continent by
hie good, sportsmanship. Here's to
the man who can lose "like a gentle-
man."
Woo1 has been going down in price
for Weeks and so far as the ordinary
mortal can see there's no change in
the price of woolens. But sugar goes
up today and the consumer pays the
-advanced price tomorrow, as it were.
Funny, the ways of trade.

What we would like to know is
what has become of all those lovely,
'big paper bags which merchants used
to keep .on hand to hold, a dollar's
worth of sugar? The manufactur-
--era must save a lot of paper since 110
more of them are required.

• Principal McQueen of Ryerson
school, London, thinks that school
-children have too many holidays and
too few "birchings" nowadays. We

It is to be hoped that Prof. Dorsey's
plan for heating with electricity at
A remarkably cheap rate will be well
tested out and available not only by
Winnipeg, but also the rest of the
'Dominion, by about the first of No-

'have to worry so much about the
..shortage of coal,
Its getting to be a serious mat-
ter to be a hen down in East Zorra.
She can no longer lead the happy,
carefree life which was her Iot up to
the present, she's got to "deliver the
goods". The enterprising farmers
in that township have started a cam-
paign
to' cull out of their flocks ev-
ery hen which doesn't produce a cer-
tain number of eggs in a given per-
iod. Its lay eggs or furnish a potpie
"`"i sia`rihe Zorra hen from now on.
Life's getting to be very strenuous,
even for a hen,

They're entertaining the Prince of
'Wales to such an extent in Australia
that he is said to be looking "pale
and fatigued," and one day he was
liable to reply to an adclress of wel-
come because his physician had for-
bidden him to use his voice. While
in Canada last year the Prince's
right arm became disabled from too
much handshaking. It looks as
though that excellent young man
would be a physical wreck by the
time he has visited all his loving fu-
ture subjects. The lot of a popular
Prince of the British Empire is no
easy one.

A young man in Goderich was
fined for driving his auto past a fun-
,eral at a high rate of speed. Few
people are probably aware that in
case a motorist is meeting a funeral
he is to turn down a side street if
possible but if not he is to stop and
stand motionless until the cortege
passes. This Iaw, was no doubt made
-when autos were not so numerous
and horses were apt to take fright at
sight of one. But it will do no one
any harm to show due respect to a
funeral procession. - Over one hun-
lred years ago it was written: "God
guard us from the man .who bears
not his brow to the dead."
