It was so very lonesome around rtis village last week, that we could ft i: fiud H m onv heart to retuaiu at fcomc. We did not fesir* to be tLo last "MoLieau," and consequently starti-d out on Weducsday morning with the iutenttou of H<-eim; the Tor- outo wolves and other things who arc running Toronto's "biggest show 011 eaith." We saw the wolves they were not hard to find. We saw the "other thiugs" too, and they were numerous. Everything in connection witli that big enterprine is run for the sole purpose of fleecing the poor giaugrr out of his last dime and some of them have even been known to mortgage their nickel watches in order 10 pacify the wolves and other things. The exhibition is a mammoth oue, growing year by year, and Toronto people are proud of it. Well they may be, for it is a source of revenue which has prevented more than oue bankrupt sale, and left au cnorn>ous amount of mouey in the city's pock- eto. Toronto is a proud city it is getting prouder every day. The Strtctsvillo Review called it a huge hog. This comparibon we consider a Blander ou the hog, but it is probably better for the hog to be daiimed with faint praise than not to be ilaniuwl at all. \\Y have several complaints to make about the Toronto exhibition, i.ii'l will proceed with them before granting the praise due. Manager Hill is au astute biiBiucss man of the Imolliug variety. Hi- in-vrr developed I ijtmlitii-a while he wax domiultil in the City Hall as un official there, bat he has them n< vorthvlcss and it is immaterial where they caino from. He is making inonoy for the associa- t.un. lie admits side iliows to the grounds of very little merit and taxes tin in high. He builds grand stands and charges people '25 oeuta for the luxury of sitting down in them and there IH no place else where a man can bit with becoming dignity.

The allow uai uow reached such large diineiisiooi U uiaj bo Mated a national * liibition. It is making money by the barrel full, and it is only just that it should pay its way under the circura< stances. As a national exhibition, too, it ranks high. Those who visited it eight yea> s ago cannot fail to be struck with the enormous strides Canada has made in manufactures of all kinds, stock raising and the de- veloping of mineral wealth and agri- cultural lands. At this show was ex- hibited products of Canada from the Atlantic to the Pacific coasts, and these prove our country to have been, during the past few years, working an absolute marvel in development. That is the great reason why we admire the Toronto exhibition, as wo most certainly do. It is reading the mal- contents a lesson which they cannot fail to learn. Canada is growing, its people are prospering, and the ghostly cry of the pessimist will shortly give way to the gleeful notes of the opti- mist. May the Toronto exhibition go on and prosper. It made ten thousand dollars more- by gate receipts this year than last. The total income from all sources Is not made public, but it must be something enormous. Mana- ger Hill is happy, Toronto is happy, tbe farming community spent their money, and if they arc happy with the result all well and good. But we fear many of them will feel the pttrsc strain for some time. Did they get an equivalent ? is the question for them alone to answer. died suddenly on Saturday ni^ht.

Mr. James Inkster had the mis- fortune to have his hand drawn into the cylinder of a threshing machine and badly mangled. The arm had to bo tnken off up near the elbow. Drs. Carter, of Flcsherton, and Scott, of Maxwell, amputated it. The Feversham fair takes place this Thursday afternoon. Mr. George Whiteoak is having his house fixed up for winter. Mrs. A.

It is well known that all thu diseases of man- kind, when they go out at all, travi 1 by rail. That is why nil tho ytmii" people go to meet tho trains. If they meet no friends they stand a clmuv of picking up a few fevers or a new kind of m : II pox. It is understood that the lailwuy policeman is travail- ing, and that he has Hie grip very bad. If lie gets off here some one may catch ii. Mr. Friday in very well. II is a very entertaining gentleman. He Gfeuis to have invented a liniment that when the cork is pulled out sings "Old King Colo."
