head with such force that little hope
is held for his recovery. Immediate-

to ,the Marine Hospital, where every
effort is being made to save -his life.

Ire Saw The Taint
An editor once needed $1oo; he
looked over his subsCription list, and
noted •that some subscribers were in
arrears for two years, a few, three
years and one or two five years, in all
amounting to five hundredpdollars.
He sent out some duns and,one man
received the missive with indignaton.
He Went to raise a row with the edi-
tor who showed him duns he had re-
ceived himself, one for paper one for
type, one for ink and severaal others.
"Now," said the patient editor, "I did
not get mad when these came, I
know I owed for them, and I relied
on you and others who owed,me to
pay for them. You see we all depend
on somebody." The mad subscriber
saw the force of the argument and
said he was sorry he had let the bill
run so long. He'paid.
Organizer C. Q. F. Dead

Kincardine Boy Drowned
Eddie Ryan, six-year-old sort of Mr.
and Mrs. T. Ryan, of Kincardine was
drowned at the mouth of the river
Thursday afternoon. The body was
found by the father close to the light-
house after a two-hour search by
neig-hbors, who joined the anxious
pa.ients when the lad could not be
found.
The little chap had been playing -
about his home, whichl is close to the
river, and was not missed until Mr.
Ryan, an employee of the Watson
Furniture Company, returned home
from work. A search was instituted
when he failed to respond to calls,
and for two hours searchers sought
the little lad, hoping that he had but
wandered away.
It is believed that the child was
playing close to the piling near the
month of the river and fell into the
stream. Evidently no one saw the
accident, nor was there any sound to
!indicate the tragedy,
