We •-specially refer to .luinbo', the bjggcsl' elephant ever in car'ivity, the story â-  of whom i.^ related by the author, | I>r.

Jumho never took kindly to confinemen'. and wis subject to periodic outbreaks of vio- lent and daTReroui temper. In the.^e fits he did ir.uch damage to his en- closure, and doubtless would have killed anyone wlio entered it. The managers were discussing the ani- malVi further disposition, when Bar- num offered to buy him. This be- coming known, there was public ex-j citement and many protests against the sale. Barnum, who was the' prince of advertisers, fomented :.he' agitation, and the British prc-,s kept! it up, though in entire good faith.

Gibjon, a fo n-.er Flesherton boy. A very en- thusia.-!:c meeting was held, and with the splendid re-^ppn ;c the Toronto committee received from the old b.iy.s and girls throughout Canada and the United States, it was decicl- ed to also bring to Flesherton the Swan^ei junior lacrcsse team for Monday's sport, also the Old Time Village (|uartetto for the concert at night..

V « • The Toronto Globe has a poet who thu.i breaks loose: â€" 'There'3 peace in the quiet twilight, Where the cuckoo build.i her nest, Fre- from every kind of sorrow, Where the weary heart finds rest." Is there no' too much poetic license in giving the cuckoo credit for con- tributing to peace» by build'n? her nest? If thii bird ever builds a nest all the school books in the past gen- erations have been circulating a fa- b'.e. From our earliest years have we not been taught that the cuckoo is a lazy animal who never bothers about a nest, but lay.-? her eggs in tho nest of a ncighbo • bird, permits the other bird to hatch the young, who in turn usurp th.- homo, and when ♦hey gain strength pitch tho logiti- ma'e family out of the ncit? The cuckoo has utterly failed to establish a reputation as a home builder in the pa.-,t, but tho Toronto poet may have disco\'orcd a new species.

DEALER, FLESH IK PON, ONTARIO CIJ viJual who is ill or injured may de- pend upon prompt treatment by a physician. No matter how well t ained you are to handle emergen- cies, is is advisable to place respon- .-.ibility upon a physician, who is the one recognized to deal with sickness^ and accidents. Thero is no doubt but that many' lives are saveT each year by trained emergency workers. Thanks to the service.! they give and the example they Eot, m.any difficult situations f.re met. It is the un.'raiied person who, in his desire to do something, does harm. The trained worker knows what NOT to do as well as what to do. In these emergency cases, if you ne not assi.^ting, do not form one of the curious crowd who lo often hind- er those who arc helping. If you •.\re assisting', ths following su;;?rest ions may be helpful. In froneral, it is v.vdl to loc-ien any 'ight clothing the patient may have on. Do not be in a hurry to move the patient; any movement may cause damage to an injured part. Keep the patient lying down, with the head low. If a part is injured and the clothing must be removed, cut off the clothng in preference to moving the injured part. After an injury, there is usually a condition of wha: is called shock. Shock should bo floated by keeping the patient warm Blankets or overcoat., are placed und- er, over and around the patient. If pr -.sible, hot water bot les should be placed under the arm pits and around the body, care being taken not to burn the patient. If the patient is conscious, give him a hot drink. Bad Car Accideot Four Toronto people, Mr. C. Ken-' nedy, wife and two others, met with a seriou.< accident op Margrave's hill, Cohngwoo gravel, on Sunday afternoon whilcd riving east with a Chevrolet sedan. While negotiating the hill a tire blew out, and aoft grave! shot the car to the fence, where it lit on its top. Two hind wheels were smashed, radiator bent in, wird.shield and windows broken, etc. The damage will amount to $200. The car was towed to Brack's garage in town, where new wheel. s were put on it and the own- er drove it to Toronto Monday on its own energfy Mr. and Mrs. Kennedy were pretty severely cut, the injures requiring several stitches to clo-se.' Had it been an open car it is believ- ed the v.'liolo party would have been killed. uable information in the articles of the Canadian Silver Fox News section. ^^ New Minister Inducted The induction of Kev.

FOR FULL INFORMATION SEE Dr. E. G. Murray - Flesherton THE rear a.:da of the, Ford car is of the tliree-quarter floating type with spiral bevel gear. The pinioti hub' is e.\ccptionally hcav>-,and, as the pinion is carried on double taper roller bearinss, perfect aligninent of •the gear is always assured. The rear axle has a total of four roller bcarins3 which add considerably to the cost of ir.anufacturc but are a prctection for the owner against v.car. Special care is taken to insure silence in the pinior and ring gcurj. These are made up in sets and carefully matched, each set being run in to elicunatc all possi- bility of noise in operation. The differential side fjears are forced integral oa the rear -^iU sl-arts and the teeth then cut. This permits ot lighter and more simple construction. The Ehafts are unusually strong, and, as the centre line of the awheel comes over, the bearings, there is no overhang of tlie axle shaft, and it has no weight to support. The use of malleable castings is eliminated in this new axle housing which is made entirely of steeL Bell forgings welded to steel tubing make up the shaft housing which is bolted to an all steel differential housing. The care and skill devoted ta the manufacture and assembly of rear axle parts is typical of the high standards of Ford engineering. . - 1 Drive it Yourselfâ€" there is no Better Test • Ford C.ir Features Ckciee of cclaurs «J to (JJ wu'.Vs an iicKtr JO-fcorsc potter m^in* Fnll balloon tirct Fail}/ nctoted six-iro/.e avaUm i llmJaille htdraulie ikock cbaorbert to to SO milft prr poUon of gatoline SKatterproot glatt windshittd Theft proof igxitio* loch RtliabCU-j anj lov upJitcf Arrange for your demonstration ride with the tiearest Ford dealer H.
