The Drury gov- ernment when put in power was much in the same position as the man who takes over a dilapidated farm. The government found $600,000 of election expenses to be paid, that | large contracts had been let for | roads, that teachers' superannuation allowances were in arrears, that the | grants to such public institutions as | hospitals, had been insufficient to meet the expenses entailed by the | increased cost of living, etc. Then Drury didn't follow the bad example of the Dominion government.

"And so, in criticising the Drury | government we are only trying to make them 100 per cent, efficient by criticising them.

You'll always find Senator cool, satisfying and "Deliciously Fragrant' | the feathers out of their wings, One day when Spurgeon came late to a church meeting a pompous dea- con thought silently to rebuke him by meeting him with his watch held out as Spurgeon hurried into the meeting. As if quite unconscious of the implied rebuke, Spurgeon walked up to the deacon and took the watch in his hand. He examined it care- fully, then h ed it back, saving: "That's a reaNy good watch, but isn't it a little in need~of repair?" The Rev. W. J. Fullerton, who writes most interestingly of Spurgeon in his biography of the great preacher, recounts an interesting in- cident in these words: "A minister once put a case to him, He said that there was a hearer who objected so much to the gospel he preached that though, for the look of the thing, he attended the church, when the sermon began he put a fin- ger in each ear. What would Spur- geon do in a case like that? " 'Why," Spurgeon said, without hesitation, 'I would pray that a fly might alight on his nose.' ** One of the gifts Spurgeon possess- ed in high degree was a memory for Tommy STEVENS has one big kick-- All the boys want to ride his new C. C. M. bicycle. Tommy says, "The fellows pester the life out of me. Be- fore one of them has finished a ride, some other fellow is Coaxing for a Turn They all seem to like my new C. C. M. a lot better than their own bikes." Aside from this one kick, Tommy is tickled to death with his new bicycle. He admits he can hardly blame the fellows for wanting to ride it. It runs so much easier. And when the boys ask him why, Tommy tells them about the C.C.M. Triplex Hanger It reduces friction. And there's a freedom from those mean "tight and loose" spots often developed by other hangers. Tommy says, "It makes a C. C. M. bicycle run so smooth and easy you'd almost think you were riding down grade. And I can feel the Triplex fairly sizzle with power and pull away like mad when I hit Boys! Girl s!

"I am well, sir," the man replied, "but my name is Patridge, not Part- ridge." "Of course!" Spurgeon replied in- stantly. "I promise jou I will make game of you no more."

Mr. Fullerton declares that top shelves of the bookcase in | Spurgeéon's library contained some "dummy" volumes. One can well imagine the astonishment of an in- quisite searcher who climbed to ex- amine the books on the top shelves and was confronted by such titles as "Pains and Aches by Feltham," Tyde- man on Cleanliness," "John Bul] on Bragging," "The Composition of Milk by A. Dealer," "Jonathan on Exag- geration," "Gilpin on Rid Horses," or others equally absurd. ------ CAPTURED BY POSSE.
