They are the little ones of men who have never had to ask for help and who, through lack of 'employment, are now unable to provide for their dependents. Sure ly it should be made as easy as pos- sible for them to obtain relief given in a kindly way. Their burden is a heavy ome, no straw of suspicion as to their real need should be added to the load. That it 8 well to make enquiries as to the amount of new wiring re quired before installing a new elec- tric meter in your house. That the Highland cadets mada splendid "taggers," their scarlet tunics and Scotch bonnets making an appeal in themselves both on the streets and in the Grand opera house on Saturday evening.

Boyhood Home of Sir Sandford Fleming Where the long rollers of the blue waters of Georgian Bay break upon shores of Grey county, a few miles westward of Collingwood, stands "Cragleith," an old white house, whose gables rise from the surround- ing trees, that is of Interest in Can- adian history and of special interest to Kingstonians and Queen's, for it is the boyhood home of Sir Sandford Fleming, for years chancellor of Queen's University, at whose hands S0 many distinguished Canadians have received degrees in arts, Science, theology or medicine, Com- ing from Kirkcaldy, Scotland, in the early part of the last century An- drew Greig Fleming, built this sub- stantial house on the wild shores of Georgian Bay, naming it after his Scottish home. Here Mr. Fleming and his young Canadian wife, Jean Hall, a daughter of Sheriff Hall, of Peterborough, lived, their son San- ford, a student even in his early days, is remembered by the older inhabi- tants, strolling in the garden intent upon his book, One of his brothers was exceptionally clever with his fin- gers so the mante] pieces and doors of "Cragleith" are marvels of beau- tiful carving and in the garden is an old sundial carved by the same clever hand. But long before Andrew Flem- wigwams of the Juron tribes nestled ! at its foot and in mortal combat as the many relics now in Canadian museums show, and not long ago a splendid totem pole was found at Eugenie Falls on the Beaver River not many miles away. The Blue Mountain, rising at one time directly from the waters of the Georgian Bay is still crowned with forest and still the faint blue cloud hovers above its summit believed by the tribes to be the visible form of Great Spirit. For many miles old trails led to the mountain where like the jews of old the In- dians worshiped their God in_the high places. From the Beaver valley from the shores of the Indian river the trails all lead to this sacred spot where thy "groping blindly in the darkness, touched God's right hand in that darkness, and were lifted up and strengthened," so wrote Long- fellow in "Hiawatha," and who shall {gain say him? At a recent exhibi- tion of pictures by Miss Marsh, held in Kingston, a painting ef '"Craig- leith" was sold to a connection of the Fleming family who are still the owners of this house with its niche in Canadian history.

Anxious conditions are due to pre- vail on this day, judging from the adverse angles of some of the import. an' planets. The chief menace les in the tendency to irritability, impe*-~ uosity and misjudgment. With this proclivity under control there is good prospect of pulling *hrough safely, as the sinister forces are in rather nega- tive operation. 'Those in the em- ployment of others should be amiable and guard the truth. The impulse to fly to law for redress for grievances should be checked, as there are indi- cations that such measures may end disastrously. Those whose birthday it is have the forecast of a year of possible per- plexity in business unless they keep firm control on their temper, use the classified advertisements, and refrain from rash and reckless manoeuvres, especially shunning litigation. A child born on this day may be very quick of tongue and temper, with the tendency to disregard the trutie in or- der %0 gain a point umless well-! trained in early life. | STROUD'S TEA and 1 pound cartons, ing made his home in<4he lovely spot | aj the foot of the Blue Mountain the | the fair lands of | "Cragleith'" were the battle ground | where they met the fierce Algonquins | It shows the dress | ra by all grocers. 109 Princess Sireet Phone 849 yn i A a sn for 63 Yrs,' "Makes happy.
