assorted holiday stocks they must come

day goods. Not only that, but many

best adventage when buying here. Is
it any wonder, then, that shoppers flock
to this store to buy their Xmas pros-
ente. Already Xmas buying is being
done by shrewd persons, who recog-
nize the advantage of buying early and
getting the pick of the best things.

Laet Saturday fternoon about 4 o'clock, a large
eagle waa soon overing over the town building.
Although At c naiderable height it was plainly
evident that it h its eye on something in the im-
mediate vicuuty. After n aking a great many circles
and, manom ers in the air it oame down with a
scream, auch as an eagli, only can give, and alighted
on the large bronze sign of Pickard's It was at first
thought that iealousy wis its motive as the sign has
ft large beaver carved from wood and brorad. But
the eagle was not ferocioue, be seemed contented,
and looked pleased to thiuk he had found the place
where so much of the fine clothina had come from,
that he bad observed in his aerial wanderings over
Huron County and pait of Perth. The eatale W89

ONE OF THE OhnEsT„—Mr. Samuel Dick-
son, postmaster here, showed us a photo the
other day, which he had taken a week or
two ago, of one of the few remaining land
Marks of: the early pioneer days of this
county. It is the photo of a log house on
the faxen of Mr. Samuel Carnochan, in
Tuckersmith. The photo, which was taken
by Mr. J. P. Henderson, of Seaforth, in-
cludes Mr. Carnochan and his 'ion
Samuel and Mr. Dickson, the two grand-
sons and the great grandson of the man
who built the house. It was erected 65
years ago last June, by thk late Samuel
Carnochan, one end of which was built by
the late Robert H. Carnochan, father of Mr.
Samuel Carnochan, the present owner.
Early in the year their first house was de-
stroyed by fire and this one was built to re-
place it, and its preaent excellent state of
preservation is attributed to the fact that
the logs were cut in the month of June. The
only persons inow living who were at the
raising are Mr. James Scott, who now
lives in Harpurhey, and Mr. Thotnas Goven-
lock, of McKillop, the pioneer cattle king
of the Huron tract. ln this house Mr
Dickson's mother lived for five Years and it
was there ehe was married. Although built
eo many, years ago, it is still in excellent
condition, for in those days, although they
huilded of wood, they built inost substan-
tially. As an evidence of this, a frame ad-
dition which was erected at a nuch later
date, lonf ere this rotted away end had to
unk Railwa be torn own. Mr. Dickson prizes this pic-e.

expenses of management, $1,735. It is
proper to say here that a comparison of the
actual expenses of management of the sever-
al companies oan • not be made from the
figures as given in the returns, as these
amounts are not made up in the same way
by all the companiea. For instance, we
notice that the Howick oom.pany pays the
agents commissions out of the funds of the
company,and these are included in the ex-
penses of management, as given above and
as- given.iu the official returns, whereas in
most of the companies these commissions
are paid directly by the insurers and do not
appear in the expense list of the companies.
Again, in many of the companies, the sal-
ary of the Secretary -Treasurer is paid out
of the funds of the company and consequent-
ly goes to .swell the item of "expenses of
management," whereas, in other companies,
as, for instance in the Hay company, the
Secretary's salary is made up in part .of a
portion of the agent's commissions and
also of commissions for collecting assess-
ments. It would be better if the depait-
ment would adopt a uniform system
throughout, showing each item of expendi-
ture and then there could be no misunder-
standing.

dark hour of trial. T
have been able to ga
stantially as follows :
four o'clock, a number
skating on the reservoi
water about half -a -mile
two miles long. About
company, leaving the ot

-weak, four or five ,brea
the water about three f
ent, who had been akati
gomery, left her then
bridge for wraps for the
through the ice. ,,,,Vrank
gomery then, and tog
away into the idusk, ov
proved quite solid. Afte
other girl had been brought down the re-
maining students went di ectly home. This
was from ten to five min tee to six. When
Frank sell Miss Montgomery did not come
promptly to dinner, as usual, their fellow
students grew anxious, nd went back to
look for them. It was but a short time till
Frank's cap was found eside an opening
some ten feet wide out n the ice, about
which some of the studen s had been skat-
ing shortly before going h me, though with-
out noticing the break. The worst was
feared at owns. It wa: less than five
minutes till the Mounted 11 olice Headquar-
ters was telephoned, and he Fire Brigade
notified. Detachments rem each came
promptly, also two docto s. In the mean.
time Franles undercoat w s found in the
water. Then we knew th re was no hope.
The night was very dark, and while some
with lanterne, traced t e skate marks:
others did what they coul to recover the,
bodies, but without avail. At one o'clock
the sergeant in charge of he police told me
there was little probabilit of finding the
bodies in the darkness, an,i great datger of
others losing their lives n account of the
thin ice. Accordingly we reluctantly gave
up the search till morning. The police were
on hand again at daylight and in a very
few minutes Miss Montgo ery was recover-
ed, and Frank irnmedi tely afterwards,
within a few feet from her. The skate
marks, water marks, and is coat showed
clearly that in the dusk hey httd skated
directly into this opening, that he bad suc-
ceeded in getting out on t e ice again, and,
hurriedly pulling off his coat and gloves,
had plunged in, like the true and brave -
hearted fellow we had fousd him to be, her
ing to save the life of hi :companion. n
ice cold water with a mud y bottom, it was
practically impossible to do much, but,
from the position of the s e.te marks and
the position of the bodies, 't seems to many
of us that he all but succe ded in his pur-
pose. So he died. While the father heart
in you aches, and the b rden seems well
nigh intolerable, yet be pr ud of the son
who bore this teetimony to the stock he
sprung from and the. trai ing he had re-
ceived. We, who are left have learned a
lesson that some men in a whole life time
could not teach, and. this 'afternoon, as I
looked into the faces of fif y strong young
men, sobbing with a grief that cannot be
expressed, I realized how Tilly it can be
said of some, that thoug dead they yet
speak."
