He came out to Canada 'immediately after graduat-~ ing, and in January, 1862, before he was eighteen, was appointed headâ€" master of Brampton High School. He was, successively, headmaster of Oshaxva High School in 1869, Dun- das High School in 1871, and St. Catharines Collegiate Institute in 1874. In August, 1884. he was ap- pointed Inspector of High Schools. Dr. Seath is author of a High School Grammar. and has published _a school edition of Milton.

In 1893 A 1' $LA Lindsay people are seriously tak- ing hold of the question of Vmaking the town look not only tidy. but beautiful as well. a, Very few towns in Ontario have as many natural re- sources as this one. The gentle. slope of the ground makes drainage simple. There is' no need of trying to make water. run up hill. The soil is moist and fertile and it is not ne- cessary to constantly" spray the lawns. Trees grow quickly, and in a few years make spreading shade. The river Scugog is a natural atâ€" traction as well as a highway of pleasure and commerce. The alti- tudes are high enough in places to aliord rarified atmosphere and low cnouigh in other places lfOl‘ those who desire more moisture. Nature has done a large share towards making Lindsay a place of héaltvhend beau- ty. 0 But in many places the natural beauties have been marred and ne- glect has allowed weeds to grow and litter to accumulate. Evidently that state of things is not longer to ob- tain; for the circulars of the board of trade committee, suggesting or~ ganized concentrated effort, ‘had not more than reached citfizens when they were planning‘ what to do to comply with its requests.

I It is said that he is a. man well chosen for the work, and the sketch of his career which follows shows his wide experience : . “ Dr. Scath was born in Auchtm muchty, Fiieshire, in 1844.

South America, is here: and gave an address at the Baptist church last night. He was the first to open missionary work in that country, and his efforts were carried on for a time with difficulty owing to the fact that there was no religious toleration. A bill has re- cently been passed by the govern- ment. however. allowing freedom of worship. and the work can be ‘ pub sued under much better conditions. â€"â€"A case of interest to owners of dogs was tried at the Peterboro po- lice court Monday. Dr. Gray of that town caught a valuable bull terrier owned by Milne Hamilton worrying his hens and shot the dog. The owner claimed the animal was worth $100 and sued for that amount. The eVidence went to show that Dr. Gray did not know who owned the animal. but had caught him on his premises several times in the act of killing valuable hens. The jury after two hours deliberation re- turned a verdict for the plaintiff of $25. The case may be appealed. â€"â€"Mr. and Mrs. Norman Morton, of Glenelg street celebrated their first wedding anniversary on Tuesday eVe- niag.

From the time they came into office the Liberals have acted on the principal that the best way to make them~ selves Solid with the people was to spend money freely. A's the revenue increased with growing prosperity. the expenditure \vas allowed to keep pace with it. The country was also treated to the unusual Spectacle of Ministers of the Crown building up private fortunes while engaged in the public service. The heelers and the civil service were led to believe that there was a "wide open" time in Canada. The natural results of this policy are now coming to light.
