Mrs. Jordan's husband had years ago taken out a policy for $5,000. He paid three annual premiums and then cir- cumstances arose which prevented his making the fourth ent. After a lapse of more than five years, Henry Jordan was drowned. His sor- rowing widow came across the policy among his papers--thought it too old-- of no value--but at the advice of friends wrote the North American Life, asking if the Policy, by chance, had still some value. d the answer rushed back was, "Yes!" Unknown to his wife, Mr. Jordan had ceased his payments and selected the option extending his insurance for a fur- ther period of five and a half years. Although not one cent in premiums had been paid during that time, Mrs. Jordan received a North American Life Cheque for $5,000. The liberality of North American e policies is unexcelled.

J M McAvoy, counsel for | Shillington, brought the matter he- | fore Magistrate Bartlett. "As a little guide to your worship {In this matter before you," Mr. Mec- | Evoy explained. "I will refer to tha case of John Doughty in Toronto. The theft was in that case, as in this, a theft from employers of a quantity of bonds of about the same value, | Whereas in this case the young man admits his guilt, Doughty denied the crinfe and a battle was waged in an assize court which lasted two days or | more. After his conviction the trial {judge Justice Riddell, who is not | looked upon as a lenient judge, im- | posed a six-year sentence Then, too, | Doughty was a man | over 50 years of age. He occupied | a somewhat different position from | [this boy, who is mere youth." | | In imposing sentence his worship | | declared that there were two things | [to be considered----the! protection of | [the public and justice to the accus- €d. There must be neither harshness not weakness, but the sentence sheuld be tempered with mercy. Be- vond that he should not go. In tak- ing into account the John Doughty case, the magistrate declared that in that case the accused was not guilty of stealing, but there was a suspicion that he might know some- | thing of the disappearance of Am- | |'brose Small, the man whom he had robbed. While Justice Riddell was not looked upon as a lenient judge, Doughty was an older man and al- experienced in the though more | ways of the world, a sentence to a | man of his age was more severe | than a similar sentence would be to & comparatively young man. { "In my best judgment the ends of | Justice will have been met if I sent- ence you to six years in the provine- {1al penitentiary, and that will be the sentence of the court." "LITTLE CLYDE" S DRIVE, First Drive of Logs Ever Known On That Stream, Lanark Era. When William Gibson, Lanark | township, proposed to drive the little | Clyde old-timers shook their hoary | heads, They said it could not be done. | Reminiscently they recalled certain | streams in their experience where | such feats had been attempted only [to end in miserable failure. "Drive | sawlogs down the little Clyde" they | Would exclaim between puffs of the | Pipe or haughty expectorations of McDonald's double thick. "Why you [might as well try to drive sawlogs | down the side of a precipice after a | freshet." But somehow in the back |of Bill's head buzzed the electric spark of conviction. He had a "hunch' that he could do it, and he | Was determined to try, no matter | how much opinion opposed the un- | usual feat. In any case Bill had four | | hundred and fifty logs of the eight | {hundred he had cut and skidden dur- | ing the winter that would be left in the bush if he could not reach water with them to protect them from the | perforating weevil in the merry month of June, Like grandfather's | clock the winter had stopped short, and the snow having disappeared it | | was out of the question to haul to | [the big river. So the logs were laid | jon Rivens Lake, the head waters of [the little Clyde. Harry Majore, Johnny Lalonde, Boyd Majore; and other nimble footed white water men, together with scores of neighbors, had promised to help when the right time came. The waten Tose, the little | Olyde a mere trickle tn normal times, | swelled to a great foaming torrent. Equipped with peevie, pikepole and pry, the volunteer gang leaped upon | the floating pine and soon succeeded | [in poling them down the creek to the "Clachan" where the cataract roar- ed in anger. The cataract at the "Clachan" is the point that caused | the unbelief in the minds of those | who said the stream could not be | driven. It falls a little bit east of the Hopetown-Brightside road, a drop of fifty feet worn through the limestone valley that descends into the level of the main Clyde River. Its fame fis derived from the fact that here the Caldwell family built a small mill when they first came from Scotland. Last Thursday all wae in readiness te put over. The news had spread abroad. Spectators came from far and near to view the rare sight. Down the winding stream the logs floated lazily until caught in the tug of the leaping tide. Then all was motion and sound, rolling and whirl} ing and booming. Never before had | there been such q sight, for this was' {the first time in the history that saw- logs had been driven down the little Clyde.

ROBERTSON - - 87 Clarence Street the old sexton reached the pulpit, the one half of the room being badly lighted and the other half in dark- ress. he discovered the awful appari tiom in the pulpit, "Running out he declared that the devil was in the church, In a very short time the whole population of the town was on the street--men, women and children, but nobody was found willing to go into the building, Finally lanterns were brought and some men went in and removed his satanic representative." The next day a young man of the town. was put on trial and Sir John had to sit in court and take notes of the trial for his principal. The young man was convicted of the of- fence and fi on a chain of circum- stantial evidence so complete and vincing that there was no weak t in it, at the same time that young man had nothing whatever to do with the matter and was not with the crowd of young men who did the mischief, This so impressed Sir John, as, he stated, that afterwards when he was minister of justice at Ottawa, he would never allow a man to be hang- ed on circumstantial evidence, In the 16th century It was custom- ary to put om one side of the blades of table knives the musical notes of thé benediction or grace before meat, and oni the other side the grace after meat, ' We bad better appear to be what We are than allect to be what we are not,
