A porcupine was sunt a little north of the village last week and has evoked considerable interest, Master Orval Tiffiu has been suffering with inflammation and has been attend- ed by Dr. Stewart of Teeswuter. Sickness in various forms and with divers results seems to be hovering over and iu many cases has settled down on our community, Sickness has also visited the house of Mr. Ephraim Taylor. Master Euart, who has not recovered from the severe attack of la grippe was taken suddenly ill again and Dr. Januesou was called from church Sunday evening, Is it possible that Mr. Gauzee- won the day? Is the rumor true that the Con- servatives are to run things henceforth in Ontario? One would be led to believe in the probability of the above dilemma if we were to j edge from the state of thiugs in Mr. Smith MacLean's bush north of the village, where a robust team of oxen are busily engaged in skidding logs. The oxen I believe came from Heron Co, but at any rate they cau find plenty of work iu Bruce even in the up- to-dttte village of Langsicdo. We con- gratulate the promoters of the scheme and would suggest the exclusive use of sickle and scythe in the coining harvest. The sad death of Miss Jennie Ross, though for sometime previous has been expected, has cast a veil of gloom over this whole neighborhood.

A porcupine was sunt a little north of the village last week and has evoked considerable interest, Master Orval Tiffiu has been suffering with inflammation and has been attend- ed by Dr. Stewart of Teeswuter. Sickness in various forms and with divers results seems to be hovering over and iu many cases has settled down on our community, Sickness has also visited the house of Mr. Ephraim Taylor. Master Euart, who has not recovered from the severe attack of la grippe was taken suddenly ill again and Dr. Januesou was called from church Sunday evening, Is it possible that Mr. Gauzee- won the day? Is the rumor true that the Con- servatives are to run things henceforth in Ontario? One would be led to believe in the probability of the above dilemma if we were to j edge from the state of thiugs in Mr. Smith MacLean's bush north of the village, where a robust team of oxen are busily engaged in skidding logs. The oxen I believe came from Heron Co, but at any rate they cau find plenty of work iu Bruce even in the up- to-dttte village of Langsicdo. We con- gratulate the promoters of the scheme and would suggest the exclusive use of sickle and scythe in the coining harvest. The sad death of Miss Jennie Ross, though for sometime previous has been expected, has cast a veil of gloom over this whole neighborhood.
