He has in derision our remark concerning the former sale, when the Lindsay article brought 10 3-8 cents and compiacently adds that though they make good cheese they don’t crow. His wisdom in refrain- ing from an imitation of Chanticleer is evident, since Lindsay cheese, in the same of which he makes his 10 5.8 boast, brought 11 1-4 cents. â€"The Toronto Star of Saturday says: “Considerable anxiety is felt by a large number of farmers from the neighborhood of Millbrook and Omemee, concerning the disappearance of Isaac Richardson, 3 live- stock dealer from Millbrook, a man who had the confidence of the farmers. They are at a loss to understand'where they are to look for their money for large quantities of hogs which were delivered to him at difl'erent sections.

University Junior matriculation exams. Miss McAlpine secured firstrclass honors in both Classics and English and stood fourth in each against the entire number writing. Her marks of 94 in Latin and 92 in Eng. lish poetry are phenomenal as anything ever obtained by a pupil of the Lindsay Collegiate. Messrs. Coiling and Hardy must takea good deal of satisfaction at having a pupil of theirs take such a high stand in their departments. -That enterprising daily, the London News, has issued its annual midsummer number.

No cmse of the trouble was given him bv the doctor. One day not long ago he was driving to the station when an Indian jumped on his Wagon. Noticing that Mr. RObinSOB kept the eye closed he asked{ what the trouble was. Upon looking at; the eye he exclaimed “I see something you can’t. PM pig's lard on it.” Mr. Robinson tried the experiment, and with only 8, few applications a well-defined “WNW 1188 appeared over the retina. It is hoped that when it develops it can be taken 011’ and the sight restored. The Indian declared that lard was a cure-all for .eye troubles. It is to'be merely rubbed in occasionally. , ‘ THE WATCHMAN-WARDER :ILINDSAY, 0mg Little Local Lines Keeping wP170695 W1) Reviewing the special incidents and attractions of this store, We are satisfied to continue the policy of extra low prices as a stimulus to trade.

J. W. Macmillan was in his own pulpit at both services on Sunday. Both sermons gave evidence of the mental re- creation that ought to result from a. month of holidays. â€"Rev. John Wilkie of Indore, CentmI India, will occupy the pulpit of St. An- drews' church next; Sunday evening. Mr. Wilkie has been twenty years at his post. and is now the head of an important; missionary college. He is a fluent and interesting speaker, whom it isatreat to hear. All are invited. -Rev. Dr. Williams, formerly pastor of the Cambridge-st. Methodist church. con- ducted both services at that church on Sunday last. Both sermons were heard by large audiences who thoroughly en- ioyed the vigorous thought and delivery of one of the ablest preachers in Canadian Methodism. The doctor's health became so impaired that he was compelled to sup- erannuate at last conference and will in future reside in Pasdena, California. His familv has already gone and the doctor and Mrs. Williams will leave shortly. Last year's council finding it necessary to extend the town wharf entered into an agreement with Mr. Thos. Robson to build a. stone wall along the front of his lot to the north of Squire McDonnell‘s for the privilege of projecting the wharf along the waterfront. It had been found that what was required by the contract would cost about $500. Yesterday the purchase of the entire 80-foot lot was arranged by the council for ‘300. What has been only an unsightly mound and dumping ground will be transformed into one of the prettiest spots in town. The summit will be cut away and the earth used for terrecing the steep sides. A road will run around on the west and north sides down to the wharf and thus the steep bill by which it is now reached will be avoided. The plot ‘wm be beautified in various other ways and the view from the deck of steamers aiming to dock will be rendered less I neightly. - Purc based the Lot Church N otes. Fall Fairs
