EL LINDSAY LADY PUBLISHES PAPER The town is represented in the news- paper business at Stoughton, Sash, by a lady who is a native of Lindsay. Mrs. A. T. Hind is the proprietress of the Times in that place, her hus- band, the former proprietor of the pa- per, having been carried of! one year ago, by an attack of typhoid fever, leaving his wife and little daughter alone in the world. The I‘rinter and Publisher contains a cut of Mrs. Hind and an article on her work. ‘The Printer and Publisher says: “The circulation of the Times was fair and the advertising patronage quite liberal. Mrs. Hind herself un- dertook the task of gathering the news, but for a while kept pretty clear of editorial articles. Many tines she wished that she had a mans knowledge of current events, but noth ing succeeds like success, and she is gradually acquiring a skill in editor- ial writing. For twelve months the Times has continued to publish the news of the town and district with a constantly increasing circulation and advertising patronage, while financi- ally it hasbeen a success." Mrs. Hind is a native of Lindsay, In 1891 she moved with her parents to Glenboro, Man. Five years later Barrie Saturday Morning 'l'he Great McEWan entertained the Crowds at the opera house last week with hypnotic stunts and many are Wondering what hyonotism really , is.

MAY USE i walk, or getting in some exercise. The Kingston Standard, in dealing with this question, claims that there is some excuse, however, for e street loiterer. Man is a gregarious . animal. He likes to take his pleasures in company with others, and he craves for society of others. It is all very Well to say that he should stay at home. Often the homes of these young men are none too attractive, and besides, they need companions of their own age. It may be askedâ€"just what are those people who find so much fault , with street loitering doing to help these young men who are seen on the streets every evening ? Many of them are living in lodging houses, their homes being elsewhere. It is pretty dreary work sitting in a bed room alâ€" one. What are they to do -? The open air is good for their physical wel leing, though their morals may sufler by loitering on street corners. . The Y.M.C.A. appeals to some of them, but not all. The Toronto News, in discussing this subject, says : “A bedroom in which to sleep, and a. cheap restaurant at which to feed is all the home life many of the younger men in Toronto. secure, Those whose parents do not live in own have little opportunity 0! se- curing even the most moderate creature comforts. After omce hours they eat suppers, whirh cost from fifteen to twenty-five cents , and thensthey can choose between sitting in their bedrooms or roaming about the street. This .is the life of hundreds of young men employed in oflices in Toronto. It is a miserable existence which is made tolerable only by the buoyancy of youth. Such alife is not conducve to social or moral advancement. In the needs of the army of clerks and other office workers in Toronto ther lies an opportunity for profitable inv;stment.” living The News proposes residential c1 1135 where there are public 'lhese rooms, and recreation rooms, and wh are a young man could 1:. age. would provide the social pleasures that ever young man craves, and would keep him off the streets at night.

With the Methodist missionaries there were in Chiga Inland, both from inside and outside the city, the Meth- odist Episcopal and the Baptist mis- sions, four men who sell tobacco in the city, and men teaching in the sci- ence and English departments of the Chinese University, all English-speak- ing foreigners.

More finishing schools are being promised that more teachers may be made. But what of that ? What inducements are there connect. ed with Public School teaching to en- tice one to make a profession of it? What promotions are there connected with it ? Who knows of a Public School Inspector who was taken from aPublic School for the position, or who knows of a Public School teach- er who is an assistant High School teacher ? No one ; so what inducement is there for anyone to continue at a work where there is no advancement possible ? In the old days. when the Union School, corresponding to the present day High School, existed, all assistant teachers were common- school teachers and there was no scar- city of teachers any where ; if any- thing there was an oversupply. It may of course be said that the old Union School was not to be compared to the mOdem High School as an Education al institution. Such talk is but pop- py cock; they were better. Yours, etc., GRANDFATHER. To the Editor: That fellow fails to please or charm who’s always viewing with alarm. Old Kickshaw hangs around our town, and wears a. most depressing frown and knocks on all our boosting schemes: and pours cold water on our dreams. “A boom is born, and then it dies,” this most unpleasant old man cries, “and when it dies a lot of jays will get the cleaver fifty ways." And still our one horse village grows. in spite of him and kindred foes, who lean against our walls of brick, and chew the rag and roar and kick. And all that poor 0 d Kickshaw gains by all his misery and pains is just a frost where’ er he wands; in all our burg, he has no friends, and that’s as much as you will gain if you de- vote your heart and brain to block- ing wheels that ought to turn, and quenching fires that ought to burn. The knocker has a clammy‘ time, the folks regard him as a crime, they plug their ears to miss his cries, and hold picnic when he dies. (From Monday’s Post) Sacred to the memory of Robert Brae?

I was all rundown and felt all out of sorts. My appetite was badâ€"my com- plexion sallowâ€"my spirits low. and I didn't seem to have any ambition to do my ordinary housework. I was in this condition for about, a. year, although several physicians prescribed a tonic for' me. and I tried several well ad- vertised remedies. but all without sucâ€" cess. About three months ago one Of your booklets was left at my house. and I read of the wonderful success of Dr. Morriscy and of the remarkable cures that his medicines were making. and decided to try his No. 14 Tablets. I used one box. and before it was half gone I began to feel better, and it gave me courage to keep on. I have just finished the third box. and only wish I could tell you how much better I feel. My Work is now a pleasure to me, and I feel 10 years younger. You certainly have the best real Blood Tonic and blood maker that I have heard of. and anyone in need of such a remedy will find yours the very best and most reliable. ‘ Mrs. Anna. Haflerty.
