Menzies was appointed care- taker of the bridge at $10 a year ; Conn. McGee was mstructed to have such repairs done as the county bridge overseer shall advise. ‘ Wâ€"riâ€" - hridn-a nvar onus -‘r -__, bridge overseer shall advise. The county owns a bridge over Black River at Big Eddy. After a few dollars had been spent on it Coun. Bailey, who is council's cyclo- paedia on north-country bridges said that when he was there last, no- body had been over the bridge in three weeks. There were no carriage tracks in the road. nor did he believe a carriage could get in over the road. The government had once built bridges on that road but they had been burnt by forest fires and now only a few settlers nearby could use the bridge. It is a county bridge however, and must be maintained in condition or taken down. Some money had been spent on the Pigeon Creek floating bridge. Petâ€" erboro had coâ€"operated. Coun. Fairbairnâ€"The work is well ;done but the bridge is not in good condition yet. I drove over it. not long ago with a load of hogs -â€" about ill 60 pounds. The horses were climbing neary straight up all the time for the weight of the load pres- sed the bridge down into the water till it was all up around the hogs. I _ ,7 an...“ The committee having charge 01’ this important. item of county prop- erty were unable to report fully be- cause returns had not been made from all the townships using it. It seemed, however, that there would be a deficit of $140 on its operations for the year. That would arise chiefly from the higher wages paid this year than last. The average cost of labor lor crushing a cord last year was $1.04 and this year $1.18. For Services Rendered Reckoning up the amounts due sevâ€" eral members of council for services at diflerent points in the county was rendered a somewhat difficult task by reason of the extreme difiidence with which these gentlemen named the distances for which mileage should be paid them. With one ac- cord they found it impossible to say how far they had travelled before reaching the scene of operations. A neWspaper man going home from the club has quite as clear conception of the distance travelled, as a county councillor on his way to oversee some job. ~â€" -- ,___i_‘ .1.\ I had to keep going UVAMV JV -. . The nearest Coun. Bailey could de- fine one distance was “eight miles and some crooks.” An idea of What “some crooks” in a. northern road means, may be gathered from the fact that the commissioner had ac- tually travelled 25 miles. That one member’s suggestion to make the distance as the crow flies, was ob- u‘o vuuvv we -â€" jected to by the northern member is no wonder. By each, other‘s as- sistance in discovering the distance from Mitchell’s hill to Kehoe’s creek, from Glenarm to Big Eddy bridge, and from Gallagher’s beaver meadow to Murphyjs calf pasture, the membâ€" ers from the north were able to sub- mit. information from which the amount of their mileagcs was ascer- tained . The Roads Scheme This was the last matter dealt with by the committee. While imâ€" pressed with its importance they dis- posed of it promptly. The clerk read the reports from the township coun- oils that had made any. Conn. Fairâ€" bairn declared he appreciated every step that had been taken, and espec- ially the capable, painstaking and thorough manner in which the ward- en had presented the question to the township councils, but moved that under the circumstances no further action be taken till next session. ;Coun. Bryans and Dr. Wood concurâ€" red. In doing so the doctor declar- ed that the attitude of the township councils left nothlog else to be done, but doubted if these councils repres- ented the people and would not be surprised if after the election in J an- uary the township councils should be of a different complexion and take a. Tiifiegent attitlide toward the scheme. The motion carried. Whv Merchants Advertise Every shrewd newspaper reader readily acknowledges that a most important part of- the real news. the news that affects pocket-books, is is found in the advertisements of the local merchants. The merchant who advertises is a reporter. He re- ports to the newspapers What he has to offer, and it is real news. It affects the pocket-nook of- every fam- ily. If some merchant is making a great run on shoes, and selling them cheap, that is news that every per- son who needs them ought to know. If another is offering special bargains fin overcoats, underwear. corsets, lhats, furniture. dress goods, carpets gnoceries. coal or wood, stoves, or anything a family needs, it is news that means money to every family and the people ought to know it. That’s why the merchants advertise in the newspapers, Stops the Cough And Works Off the Cold Laxative Bromo-Quinine Tablets cure a cold in one day, No Cure, No Pay, Price 25. cents. . . gging vor be drowned Stone Crusher 3i the doctor’s in civilization play upon the that he (Continued from Page 1). we found out the main question with .companiw was: “Can you supply the beets?"

John Austin was ill after the first day and had to go home. His frank speeches and impromptu drolleries were greatly missed: â€"-Next to the most felicitous rel- ations of the councillors to one another, is noticeable the fact that Warden Graham is an immensely popâ€" 1ular chief of the assembly. â€"â€"On Friday night the Warden, in- vited the councillors, clerk and reâ€" porters to an oyster supper at Fred Taylor’s. A capital evening was spent. Complimentary references to the genial warden's services were much in order. The Teething Period Dangerous to Little Ones and Very Trying to Mothers What mother does not look forâ€" Ward to the time with dread when baby shall be teething? At that , time baby is restless, feverish and irritable, and frequently there is some disorder of the bowels and stomach. The poor little suficrer is fighting one of his first battles in this old world of pain, and if not aided in his fight may be overcome. Every wise mother helps the little sufferer as much as she can, and the mothers who have been most successful in this respect have found that Baby’s Own Tablets give just such assistâ€" ance as the little one needs. Mrs. W. J ._ Wright, Brockville says :â€""1 have used Baby’s Own Tablets quite frequently, and am much pleased with them. I‘ find them especially satisfactory during the baby’s first year. I have used them in teething, in vomiting, in colic, in indigestion, and in the disorders of the stomach and bowels usually accompanied by restlessness and fever. The action of the Tablets has always been all that could be desired.” Baby’s Own Tablets are a sweet, pleasant little lozenge that all chilâ€" dren will take readily. They can be crushed or dissolved in water and administered with safety to even the youngest infant. Guaranteed to contain no opiate or any of the poisâ€" onous stufis that make the soâ€"called soothing medicines. dangerous to little ones. If you do not find Baby's Own Tablets at your druggiSt'a, sent 25 cents to the Dr. Williams’ Medicine 00., Brockville, Ont., and a. box will be sent you by mail post- paid. AN UNENVIABLB CONDITION.

He 'is ~4gnforâ€" tunate in his pleadings. I never was more decidedly certain of my ground than last year when I voted for that resolution of censure on the magistrate.

Shaverâ€"No, he said we would encourage them. Coun. Johnstonâ€"Perhaps. I think it Was not only unwise but criminal to send those boys to Toronto, but. even if we were Wrong, Mr. Knight’s language was ungentlemanly and calls for an apology. Coun. Fairbairnâ€"I should be sorry to be arbitrary with such an old servant of the county as Mr. Knight, but he must retract his words through both papers or I am pre- pared to stand alone for his dismisâ€" sal. Public men have enough to put up with without being slandered by their own officers. “‘ AI,!, misunderstanding has arisen. It has come on me suddenly. I would like time to consult a lawyer. You have spoken of my influence. I hope you will not ask me to to anything to impair it. If I signed a paper it might. As your officer you would like me to command as much con- fidence as possible. If you can draw up an explanation or apology that will not hurt my influence, I will Sign it. â€"- - -,,, 1r- Coun. Shaverâ€"We must give Mt.

Ir‘don't thivnk anybody here wants to rake advantage of Mr. Knightâ€"I consider myself a man of mature judgement. _I think the council did wrong by censuring the magistrate. But, I am free to admit that. I should not have used those words, and of course I am sorâ€" ry I used them. Coun. Stabackâ€"We are before the people as fools. Let us adjourn till an apology can be framed or till to- morrow if Mr. Knight. wants legal advice. Dr. Woodâ€"No body want to gag Mr. Knight but he is a man whose duty it is to teach children the meanâ€" ing of words and if he sees that the word “fool" does not express what he meant, he should say through the press that he made a. mistake and that we are not what he said we were. 1 do not believe children of deli- cate years should be sent to those institutions. They should be sent home to their parent to be spanked, and the parents should be punished for neglecting to train them. When the law was made, the government likely intended their magistrates to discriminate between cases. This Mr. Steers does not seem to have done. ‘ Nobody will ask Mr. Knight to say anything that will impair his useful- ness. If it did we should still have to demand an apology. I do not care Whether he has changed his views or not, but 1 do say he should not'hesitate to admit his language was improper. A committee composed of Couns. Staback, Johnston, Shaver and Clerk McNeillie conferred with Mr. Knight and agreed upon the following apol- ogy which Mr. Knight agreed to sign : “Referring to an item of the pro- ceedings of a meeting on the Chil- drenzs Aid Society, reported in the issue of the "Watchmanâ€"Warder” newspaper of November 21., 1901, and which has been the subject of discussion by the Standing Commit- tee on Education today, while re- taining the liberty to hold and utter my views on all question affecting any public interest, I desire to exâ€" press regret that the words com. plained of were used by me, and to retract any language used by me that could in any sense reflect on the intelligence or reputation of the County Council or of any member thereof in “the discfi'arge of his duties a4: a. member. of that MQL’.£ ar’s counci‘ but I agree Lotion on the question of ;.
