E1vzraonoamo.em.,â€"Mn George» McGee, of the new hardware store. has secured the services of Mr. H. Ackert, of Ingcrsoll, a first-class practical tinner, and is now preparedto attend to all or- ders with which he may be favored in this line. Special attention given to envctroughing and roofing. THE Canesâ€"The recent abundant rain did. a great deal. of.good; though the weather- wus very chilly, and all mrts of vegetation is getting on finely. Fall wheat and grass are much farther advanced than is usual. thus early in the season. and a. former told us one day last week that he had not seen clovm' look as promising for many years. A Sunder-land lady writes Dr. Neelatzds that he had made her a successful fit after having eight sets of teeth made in Toronto and elsewhere-43“ A HAWK, KILLEDâ€"Last Saturday one of our village boys picked up on the vacant ground behind 'l‘womey's hotel the body of u very large hawkzthat. had been butu short time dead. It is no doubt the one that vi<itcd the Falls so frequently last winter and killed dozens of lame pigeons, the owners of which were of course anxious to put an end to it. Asuperfiuial examination showed no wound. but it may have received a single shot. ill a vital part, and then flown a considerable distance. - A RARE. ThEATnâ€"Miss E;'.P1ruline Johnston's recital in Dickson’s hall on Wednesday evening was a rare treat, and the St Jotnes’ Sisterhood deserve to be commended for giving the Fellelon Foils public an opportunity oi hearing an artist of such-wide repute and un doubted talent. illissJohnston’s poetry is of high merit, strong, clear and fin- ,ished. It breathesthc very spirit of Indian life and Indian nature, and her art-eat ciocutionary powar and her distinctly Indian personality make her renditions of it unusually entertaining. H‘cr "light comedy ” recitations prove her to be equally gifted in that direc- tion. AN EAGLE Snorâ€"A few days ago we met Mr. E. \V. }I:lspel|, caretaker of Grand Island. in Balsam Lake. who comes to theihdls occasionally, and the told us that on the 18th inst. he shot one of a pair of bald eagles that. have lived onlllc island about, ten. years and have their nest between two forked limbs at the top of a tremendously high pine that towers above the neighboring trees like a giant ill a crowd of ordinary men. Seeing one of the birds settle down ill the nest, he took a steady aim at it with his ~l+cnlibre rifle, the car- tridge in which contained a very heavy charge of powder; and. though the dis- tance could not have been much less than five hundred 'yards, the bullet. went clean through the nest and its occupant. and the latter came fluttering to the ground nearly, but not quite, dcnd.‘ rl‘lle bird, which proved to be the female, measured 5feet 103; inches from tip to tip of its wings, and must have been a specimen worth preserving; but Mr. Glaspell (possibly because he was alone on the island and could not leave for nearly a week) out off his victim’s head and. feet and threw its body away. n+0 There is a general feeling in Montreal that the railway rate war will be settled this week. Ten days ago wheat sold at 31.03%; at Fort William. On Tuesday it sold at 31.2”. and there was great excito- ulcnt at Winnipeg. Hamilton is so well satisfied with the result. of its potato patch experiment last year that it will be tried again this year. ' The skeleton of a mastodon, in a good state of preservation, was lately dug up in America. It was found about six feet below the surfaCo. One of the tusks measures 7 feet 8 inches in length. The report. of the first oilicial destruc- tion of fruit trees in the campaign against the Sun Jose scale was recoiVed on April 20th at the Department of A9;- riculturc. Four hundred and ninety- cight plum. peach and pear trees from an orchard near Kingsvillc were burned The owner will receive one-quarter the value of the trees. A dcspntch from Montreal says that an epidemic of infanticido seems to be raging in the eastern townships, and the Provincial Attorney has sent an officer. who has arrested, at South Rox- lon. John McCormick. the father of one of the children. which was thrown to the dogs. The mother is a 15-year- nld French-Canadian girl named Rosana Couture. Other arrests will follow. The Rossin House, Toronto, has re- ceived two requests for quotations on options on estensive suites of apart- ment-l to b‘ occupied during the coming summer by two New York families.

I was troubled with piles for many years, and always ill misery. l sull‘crcd so much during this time that I often wished denlh would come and end my sufferings. i spent a great deal of money trying all kinds of medicines, but received no benefit until i tried Sloan’s Indian Tonic.
