Township Mnet Pay Damages.
An imports tit judgment wag given at
Ovgoode hall, Toronto, on Monday last
that will be el much general interest.
Isere is the report:—
Hogg v. 'Township of Brooks.-=Judg-
ment(it.)ou appeal by plaintiff from
fiudgment of Falconbridge, G.J. (1 0. W.
t. 688) dismissing action to recover
damages for injuries sustained by
plaintiff by reason of the alleged negli-
gence of defendants in permitting an
accumulation of snow to retrain ou part
of number 9 side road, in the third
concession of the Township of Brooke,
in front of one Pillow's farm, by reason
of which it wag alleged the highway
became out of repair and unsafe for
travel, and owing to the bad and den
germ's state of the highway the horses
drawing a wagon in which plaintiff
was travelling became imbedded in the
snow, and warn unable to proceed, and
plaintiff in assisting the horses to get
out of the snowdrift was stepped upon
and thrown down and his ktwe serious-
ly injured. Held, that it was nnneces-
enry to determine whether or not
defendants would have been chni geable
with actionable negligence fur not
removing the snow from the highway
so as to make the usually travelled
part of it fit for travel. Not only did
defendants fail to remove the snow
from the travelled part of the highway,
bit having in effect provided and
invited the public to use as a substitute
for it a way of the aide of the road
which they knew would become dan-
gerous to those using it for the purpose
of driving over with wheeled vehicles,
as soon as a thaw set in, permitted it to
remain for three days in a condition
dangerous to persons so travelling, a
,'taw having set in, making it danger-
ous for three days before the accident
to plaintiff. In those circumstances it
was the duty of defendants to have
made the highway reasonably fit for
travel, either upon the usually travelled
part of it or upon the substituted way,
which could have beer, accomplished at
a trifling expense, or failing that, have
stopped the use of the road or given
warning against the danger to those
travelling upon it, and in omitting to
do this they made default in keeping
the highway in repair within the mean-
ing rf sec. 606 of the Municipal Act,

damages. Boswell v. Yarmouth, 4 A.

CJhen a baby is coming the ex-
pectant mother needs to take special
cart of herself, for upon her health
depends to a great extent the health
of the unborn babe. If diet, ttc.,
etc., etc., is not watched, the start in
life of the future offspring will not
be a sati,.factory one. It is a mistake
to take liquid medicines at this time,
for they all contain alcohol. Their
steady use has the same effect as
habitual liquor taking, consuming the
vitality and hardening the tissues.
If you are weak you need a tonic,
not a stimulant. Don't take medica-
ted wine or alcoholic medicines; but
take ST. JAMBS WAFERS, they ate a
tissue builder and a reconstructive.
ST. JAMES WAFERS help stomach,
digest food and send the nutriment
through the blood, and this is the
honest way to get health and strength,
the kind that lasts, develops and
breeds the energy which accom.
plishes much.
