.Dr,v dale.
•tLLirriGs.-eThe sleighing around these
parts is just something immense since the
last fall of snow, which we ,had on Sunday
Inst.—Mr Robb. Drysdale, jr.. who had
benn visiting friends in Michigan for some
weeks, has returned home.—Our fi hermen
have their nets all in readiness and are
waiting patiently for £' Jack Frost " to pre-
pare the ice.—Our school was closed during
last week owing to Mr. Aitcheson, the
teacher, being ucexpectedly called home to
attend the funeral of his mother.—Miss
Mary A. Drysdale, who had been visiting
of friends in Stanley, has returned. =Don't
forget people that Tuesday neat is the day
to poll your votes and when doing it don't
forget the right man. Give him all you
can.
NRWs NoTEs.—On Thursday' evening of
last week two sleigh loads of the members of
the Young P-eople's Heart and Hand Asso-
eiation drove to the residence of Mr. Joseph
Wilds, near Bayfield, where they spent a
most enjoyable evening indulging in - games
and tripping the light fantastic. Messrs.
J. Brown and H. Darrow wielded the bow
in a moat able manner and they deserved
great credit. After heartily thanking the
kind host and bestow for their kind hospi-
tality the crowd departed to their many
homes rejoicing.—Mr. Norman Patterson,
who has been working in the neighborhood
for some years, has engaged for the summer
months with Mr. Upshall, of Tuckersmith.
—On the 17th inst. Messrs. Bishop and Mc-
Ewan delivered eloquent political addresses
in behalf of Mr. M. Y. McLean to a large
audience.—Many will regret to learn of the
:illness. of Mrs. Snowden but soon hope to
hear of her reoovery.
NORTH END NOTES.—The weather in this
vicinity has been quite changeable for some
time. We suppose it is due to the friction
eaueed by the coming election.—Political
matters are the common speech now -a -days
and the sooner the whole affair is over the
better it will be for the fishermen, who are
anxiously waiting for the end of these hot
llay jwhen. they expect to get good ice-main-
ing weather.—Mr. Mrs. and Miss Stevens
were the guests of . Mr. H. Talbot on Sun-
day last.—Mr. and Miss Pollock, of Mani-
toba, who have been visiting in and around
the village proper, spent a few days with
our neighbor, Mr. Georgge Dewar.—Mr. A.
Murray, we understand, has purchased a
new sausage machine and intends going ex-
tensively into the pork business. We con-
gratulate Mr. Murray on this move to duty
as such an establishment bas long been
needed here: -Mr. Robert Orr, jr., intends
chipping a ear -load of horses to Buffalo next
week.—Mr. Wellington Elliott is repairing
iris house. This is a good sign. Mr. H.
Talbot can boast of having threshed some-
what over twelve hundred bushels of clover
this season.—We learn that Mr. George
Howard, who teaches somewhere between
Philadelphia and Chicago, is having a new
bell placed upon his school. The people of
this entire neigbborhood should feel grate-
ful to that gentleman for the sweet tones
which may be heard pouring forth six or
seven times a day. This is the second bell
which he bas been the means of placing
within our hearing. Mr. Howard not only
gets the mane of being `a good teacher but
also of being a: good man to look after school
property.
--The Brussels Post 'says : We were
shown a postal eard written by Leon F.
Jackson, of this town, that contained 1,190
words. The writing was done with an ordi-
nary pen and was readablewithout artificial
aids. Mr. Jackson - has ritten the 23rd
Psalm on the back of alone cent postage
stamp.. There are -114 words in the Psalm
referred to. It is not many outside of
experts who can accomplish that feat we im-
