County Road and City Market Toll Question. Sydenham, May 7.--(To the Edi tor) : Permit me to ask the question in regard to a matter which concerns not only the farmers who attend the Kingston market, but the citizens as well. ls it a question of law, or of honor, whether the market toll in Kingston should be abolished or not? 1 am told that about six years ago a} promise was made by the city coun- cil, that if the county would free two of its leading roads of toll, that the city would lift the market toll in lien of same. Since then the county has freed two of its leading roads, and the market toll still remains, Had it not been for the promise made by the city council, the probabilities are the coun- ty would mot have freed these roads, and the results would be that the farmers would have a much better road to drive on than they now have, and that the people living in the city would be at the trouble and expense of paying. toll, when driving to and from the cemetery, and which one would naturally believe would be of ten. It has been said by prominent men of the city, that they have to pay a reliable man to look after the market, and keep it clean, and that they cannot do it for nothing. May | again ask the question, what has that to do with the agreement mentioned in this artitle ? Trusting that this mat ter may be defilt with according t promise.--A FARMER. David And Goliath. Harper's Weekly. There is the story of David and Goliath as it is said to have been re-| cently told by the Rev. Billy Sunday, with appropriate gestures, to a rapt con i gregation of eight thousand: 1 "And so David's pa comes up to him' where he was working in the field and | says: 'Dave, better go up to the house. | Your ma's anxious about the other boys | fighting in the army, hasn't heard from them by 'phones or anything, and she'd like you should look them up. So Dave hops on a trolley and hikes to the front, and stays there with his brothers overnight. "In the morning old Goliath comes olit in front of the Philistines and dares the Israelites to fight him. "'Who's that big stiff making all the big talk out there?' asks Dave, "" "Why that's the head cheese, the | big noise," says his broters. ! 'Why don't some one soak him one?' asks Dave. " 'We've all got cold feet,' says the Israelites 'You fellows make me tired,' says Dave, and he pikes out to the hrook ge's four pebbles in his shepherd's sack, slams one at Goliath, and soaks him ,in the coco between the lamps Goliath goes to the mat, takes count, and Dave pokes him in the slats: chops off his block, and: the whole Philistine gang skidooed." eld bi A.B.
