THE MYSTERY OF TYING SHOE
TRINGS.—The simple mystery is
his : Proceed exactly as if you
ere about to tie an ordinary bow
not, but before you draw it pass
the right hand loop through the
knot; give a steady and simultane-
ous pull ou both loops, and you
may tread the sands of time or the
ocean beach all day and waltz into
the wee VIII' hours of the next and
that shoestring will never trip you
up. In untying be sure to pull the
'.ght-hand illattisn.gt the string,. will
eadily unloosen, but if you pull
the other you will find it as hard to
unfasten as some hastih ''jQ matri-
thonial llriott —Nets York Herald.
PRAISE INDEED.—The following
complimentary—we were almost go-
ing to say obituary so praise laden
is it—is from the neighborly and
brotherly Stratford Times :—Mr,
Whitely, the accomplished editor
of the Huron News•Record, is a
candidate for the position for coun-
ty clerk of Huron. He is a man
thoroughly capable of filling the
position and being connected with
a paper places him in a position to
promote the interests of the county
in many ways, where any other man
might fail. The Times trusts that
the county council of Huron will
see their way clear to make the,ap•
pointment. No one in Huron will
make a more efficient clerk than Mr.
Whitely.
"N HOOP LA, MooLAH 1"—Friday
afternoon, just after it was announc-
ed that the Clinton Circuit races
were postponed until Saturday, a
flash of intelligence seemed to per-
meate the grey matter contained in
the cerebral structure of a mule in
front of Ford's butcher shop, and it
started out to give an exhibition of
speed. The animal was attached to
a light wagon.. Three young men
were in the wagon. The mule sud-
denly laid back its ears until they
•overlapped the back strap of the
harness, and its long head reached
a considerable way across the street
as it made a bee line for Boyd's
bakery, at a pace that showed a pre-
dominancy of the equine strain in
its mongrel make up. A tie post in
frtintof, the bakery somewhat arrest-
ed its speed, but the post gave way
at the same time ae the rear end of
the wagon and of the mule and
one of the young men were project-
ed upward. The young man alight -
.ed against the upper part bf the
glass li0 l of the Nilo shop, but
his feelers not possessing the vacuum
creating powers of the fly he slid
down to the sidewalk, unharmed.
Another of the young men was
thrown, or thraw himself, overboard,
one of the wheels of the rig passing
over but not injuring him. The
driver about this time thought his
presence was required elsewhere
than in the wagon and he jumped
out as the animal was doing the
kickinn act in front, of S ooner's
"hallway door, Away went the mule
southward as though inviting fields
of sage brush • were in sight and
tempting it with a promise of a rich
repast. The breaking of the shafts
was about all the injury done to the
�.,...R: •Tam fl .�<.Q, - y.�
a-gton.eort a young men was
slightly screeched about the face,
and the broad part of his nether gar -
nether garment was made as tattered
as the holy coat of Treves.
On the 31st of August.

Council to consider a proposition he

STRONG ALL -WOOL TWEEDS
The Clinton races of the Lake
Huron Circuit were to have come off
last Friday. The town was alive,
in spite of the rain threatening
morning, with people who take an
interest in this sport which is ever
the accompaniment of a higher
civilization. But unluckily Friday
was true to its unenviable reputation
and the sluiceways of the upper
firmament gave way and a drench-
ing rain poured down during the
greater part of the forenoon. The
conse4tience was that the races
were postponed until the next day.
A great number of attendants from
outside remained over night and
the hotels were crowded to their
utmost capacity:- Others returned
home and did not come back.
However, Saturday was quite favor-
able, and those that remained over
with those who lived within driv-
ing distance and our townspeople
made a respectable number. A
spectator informs us that there were
possibly one thousand people on
the course. The races were hotly
contested, the various competitors
being urged for all they were
worth. Only the 2.50 and 2.32
races were trotted ; the "Open Rau"
was declared oft. Following is tIre
