Mrs Win. T' Pedlar of the grave! road oast owns the most prolific turkey that has yet come under our notice. The bird has during the past summer laid 121 eggs and only ceased her exertions along that line about a week aso. That is a bird of a bird. She l.as established a record tha*- will be difficult to beat. The Advance was misinformed last week regarding the announced sale hy Dr. Scott ot his practice and properly at Maxwell. Welhouiiht our iiiformation reliable but we hive the geniil doctor's word that he has not sold, and regret hav- ing given publicaiion to what proved to be a f dsc rumor. The Dr. says that should he sell he would think it his duty to notify the public through the press.

The saying '"In olden times the men went out with powder in their sjuns to hunt deer.but now the ('dear') deer comes out with powder on its face to hunt a man," was really practiced on Mr. George Lawler, of the 8ih line, Artemesia, Sat- urday, when a deer camo out of Pedlar'a swamp and followed him for about 60 yard* up the road and then took to the 6elds again. Mr. Lawler did not h»Te a gun or he would have made the de«r pay dear for its fun. Miss Park, in the viUa^, will sell her household furniture on Saturday next, Nov. 21, at 1.30 o'clock p. m.

Two foreigners made an interesting hour among our merchants on Friday, on wluim they tried to work a little llimflain game. lu all ei.'Jes with one exception, their scheme was a failure. They suc- ceeded in getting fifteen dollars from R. Trimble without sjiving an equivalent. Trimble succeeded in getting a citizen in- terested in his loss to an extent that he collared the Jew and made him give up the money. Later the pair were run out of town. Nearly every business man has a little experience lo narrate of the pec- uliarities of the two gents. Mr. Sydney Schofield, 220 Carlton St., Toronto, was recently united in marriage to Miss Stella Martin at 201) Parliament street. Rev. M. L. Ptar.sou of Berkeley street Methodist church, performed the ceremony, the bridegroom being attended by Mr. .A.. D. Savage, of Guelph. Miss Jennie Martin, sister of the bride, acted as bridesmaid. The bride's dress was of white silk with train and veil, that of the bridesmaid being of blue crepe do china with applique trimmings.

Wilson. The directors of the public library are nuking a canvas of the tovvn this week for members, with the objest of placing this valuable institution uii a solid basis once more. There are about thirteen hundred volumes incur library. It would bo a la>ting disgrace if allowed to go to the wall. Wo believe there are a few citizens who will refuse to put up the small membership fee of uO cents. Of couise there are always few in every communiiy who never read anything or attempt to store their mind with kuow- led;;e, and who consequently cannot see any good in a libiary, but they form a very small percentage of the community. Even to this clase we would appeal on the score "f bentvolence and loyalty to the town iuslicutioiis. Tliere are at least a hundred members wanted if the library 's to be continued. A subscriber to a farmer's paper asked this question : " At what times and under what circumstances may a farmer shoot stray dogs on his premi.scs ? " The answer the paper gives lo this qnealion is a.s follows, and it would be well for own- ers of dogs to bear it in mind : " He may kill any that he tinds astray between sunset and sunrise on his farm it .sheep are kept thereon, uule:;s such dog be se- cui ely muzzled or accom[)auieel by or in reasonable call or control of the poison having it in charge. Even in such case the dog may be VilleJ if there is reason- able npprehension on the part of the f.irmer that such doi; if not killed i.s likely to wound or worry sheep or lambs then ou his farm. Ho may also kill any doy which he sees pursuing, worrying rr with out lawful permi."!sion to any enclosed field on his farm and found by him to be giving tongue mid terrifying any sheep or lamb thereon Election Card Tit ihi FJectorx of (}•« Tp. of Aiicmcfin Lauiks ani> Gfnti.kmanâ€" I cordi.iUy tbauk ynn for yo'ir suppoi t ia llie iiast, ami I rnspoct* hilly â- *oHcit voiii- vote nx^<\ infiiienco ou my be- half for tlio voovonhip (or lUiW. toura rosnectfiilly ALfcX.
