And when the maggots 1 get a start they create a more and i more friendly harbor for their kind " as they work and increase in numbers under the wool. A sheep infected with maggots is a most pitiful sight, help- less against the parasites eatlng out its flesh until the sheep dies, its flesh gnawed out in a most cruel manner. For the sake of humanity. if for no other reason. sheep should be saved from much suffering. These files can do no damage it not given a suitable place to lay their eggs.

Chickens that are penned up should have their houses cleaned out twice a week at least. and their runs dug up (to loosen the earth) once a week. which enables them to have a little exercise in the way of scratching.

For their last meal give barley. a little wheat, or darry, and occasionally. small Indian corn. A box kept in the run, with all fine ashes saved from the house on washing days, if sifted well, gives them a bath. A handful of peppercorns thrown in to them about once a month helps to g keep them in good condition. and their ‘ houses should be limewashed occasion- ally.

These maggots also get in their work under rams’ horns. Indeed. a ram with heavy horns lying close to his head will hard- ly pass through a summer without in- fection unless the flies are kept away by putting some tar on the ram's head. An infected sheep can be told by the fact that it refuses to eat. stands with its head down and most often by itself, and stamps its feet or jerks its head exactly as irritation by mag- gots would lead one to expect. The remedy is simple. Cut away the wool close. Clean out all maggots, using turpentine to wash them out. Smear the place thoroughly with tar. Then watch the sheep to see that the flies do not again start in the same place. Thoroughness in cleaning out the parasites is essential, for one left in will start the damage all over.

PAUL’S -.CHURCH A.Y.P.A Last evening about forty tot the members of the St. Paul'slA.Y.P. Association gathered at .the home of Mr. :Johnson at the corner of Sussex! and Glenelg-sts to present Rev. C.H. Bilkey, the active retir~ ing president of the league with an address and gift of remembrance as he will leaVe shortly to take the rectorship of the Anglican church at Alliston. In a neatly worded address, read by Miss. E. Twamley, Mr. Bilkey was presented on behalf of the As- sociation with a handsome black leather, initialed, travelling bag. Mr. Bilkey was taken entirely by surprise, and in a few well chosen words thanked the members of the association for their kindness and stated that in his new parish. he would always remember the mem- bers of the A.Y.P.A. He went on to say that he was Very sorry to leave town. but that he saw in A1 listen 9. lot at work to be done, and he thought it best to go. Rev, Canon Marsh then spoke a few words stating, how be greatly regretted the departure of Mr. Bil- key from Lindsay, and wishinghim every success in his future parish.. Mr. Johnson. the host of the even ing expressed his regret at the de- parture of Mr. Bil‘sey from town, and although he left Lindsay, he would always hold a warm place in the hearts of the members of the ed how sorry he was,to see Mr. Bilkey leaVe town. He stated that while in Lindsay, Mr. Bilkey had made many friends who Would re- gret his departure as much as he (the president) did, but as he knew that Mr; Bilkey Was leaving to take up a parish. of his own in Allister: he thought that it: would be for the good of the church, and he wished him every success in his new field of labor.

Master Kirkconnell won first prim: "On the corner of Kent and Yorke- sts., stands the large, massive store of Dundas Flavelles. Even from a distance it looms up strong, well- made, and substantial. From the graceful lines of the roof to the broad cement sidewalk the whole structure appears, a good model of business at. chitectures, for it is utterly without the ugliness which often results from the quick, utilitarian methods of the modern day, and possesses a world of quiet dignity in its simple design. The whole building is of red brick, and is built in three stories. All a]- ong the front on the ground floor ex- tend huge, plate glass windows, through whose polished faces we catch a. glimpse of the fairyland within. On entering at the front door during the busy Christmas season, one is struck by the gay scene into which he is plunged, A11 across the room, from the. rows of posts which support the ceiling, hang long, graceful festoons of tissue paper. Here and there Christ‘ mas bells are attached by cords to the ceiling, and to cap all, several caged canaries trill cheerily from their perches. To the right and centre are long counters, shelves and tables, with a multitudinous variety of femi nine fineries, knick-knacks, and those articles known only to that sex. Dainâ€" ty shirt waists, divers colored rib- bons, and alluring fabrics of all sizes and colors attract the would-be purchasers, and all wants are prompt- ly attended to by the obliging and pretty clerks. To the left, almost hidden by a great partition of boxes, is the'Men’s Department. Here, along the front, are hats and cans of the latest are hats and caps of the latest style lrom the splendid Hawes von Gal headwear to the small neat caps for the boys of the Collegiate Insti- tute. lHeavy tables, heaped up with suits, stretch up to the rear, and for cupboards and dressing rooms a long row west In the northern section of the ground floor, but on a slightly higher level, we find the fur department and the office of the establishment.

In the work of the. church Mr. Bilkey was a splendid worker, visit ing the sick, and doing all in his power to loyally uphold and retain the standard of Christ. During the evening, Mr. T. Mur- tagh, rendered two delightful solos, which were highly appreciated by all present. At the conclusion of the evening, a hearty vote of thanks was extend ed to -Mr. and.Mrs. Johnson for the excellent manner in which they entertained the young people. THE ADDRESS. Games of various kinds were then indulged in and a pleasant social time spent. after which refreshment were served. Dear Mr. Bilkey:â€"- When it Was noised abroad that you were about to sever your con- nections with St. Paul’s, many wer the expressions of regret heard on all sides, not only from the people of our own congregation but from many others. Will you accept this club bag as a slight token of our appreciation of the many hours of thought and work you haVe devoted to our wel (are and of your unfailing cheerful- ness and interest. which have made the hours we have spent together, so pleasant and profitable ? In conclusion We wish you and your family a happy joyous Christi mas tide and we trust and pray that your efforts in your new field of labor. may in the future. be crowned with every blessing.

Here. too, all is decorated and abounding in the Xmas spirit. Palms are everywhere, and a. piano delights the ear with popular music. The office is a fine. upâ€"to- date room with all modern conven- iences. It is centrally situated in the store and so can keep a. guiding eye over the whole building. Mount the stairs which go up near the office ano you will find yourself on a narrow landing between the car- pet and millinery departments. In the latter is spread out such an exhibit of creations that aman feels dizzy gazing at the multiplicity of designs, increased as they are by the reflect- ions from the great mirrors at the sides. All unmindiul of the beauty of the room. numerous women are “try- ing on" their winter hats and at- tempting to discover which style is most becoming to their ow.) peculiar types of beauty. A door in the corn- er leads to a small, airy Cobalt work room, which .is built on the root. In this the manufacture of hats is being Carried on. The carpet department is a long, narrow room, plentifully stocked with material. Huge rolls of Brussels carâ€" pets line the walls. and with window blinds, damask curtains and rugs, of ail sorts, form a most enticing dis- play. Adjoining this is the dress making department an airy place with hardwood woodWUrk, and handsome- ly papers walls and ceilings If an ad- venturesome spirit lead you to mount another flight of stairs, you discover a large spacious room devoted to the work of the carpet department. Even here everything is up-to-date and no slovenliness can be observed anywhere Thus we find that from the ground floor to the attic the building is up- to-date, commodious and attractive. Its clerks are always obliging ;' its stock is extensive, varied and select. Their name isa by-word throughout the town and surrounding district for honesty, courtesy and excellence in goods.

They cultivate no “old fogey" ideas, and “promotion for merit" seems to be the motto of the firm. Just last spring their apprecia- tions of deserving employees was seen in the admission into partnership of Messrs. Brimmell and Staples. 80 home as they are, high on the wave of modern improvements, yet keeping a firm grip on the true essentials of business, it is little wonder that the firm of Dundas Flavelles is every- where recognized as the banner store of Lindsay." The Coronation Chair at Westminster Is the Meet Interesting We often hear people talk about "the King upon his throne," but does it ever occur to us to ask, “Which throne?" There are five in London alone; so this question is not so un- necessary as might at first appear.” The most magnificent throne of the British Sovereigns is that at Windsor Castle. This throne was presented to Queen Victoria by an Indian mahara- jah, and is of carved ivory inlaid with various costly jewels. The throne from which the King opens prorogues, and disolves Parlia. ment, is made of tcak, and has a gilded canopy. It occupies a raised position in the House of Lords. 1"- a. There are three thrones in the Lon- don palaces. that in Buckingham Pal- ace being especially remarkable for the sumptuous dais on which it stands. - But of all, the throne, or coronation chair. in Westmisater Abbey, is by far the most interesting. It is solidly put together, and is made of oak. Placed under the seat is the famous Corona~ tion Stone of Scone, at which town generations upon generations of Scot- tish kings were crowned before the union of Scotland and England on the accession of James I. This is a large slab of sandstone and, according to the 01:! Scottish legend it is the indentical stone upon which Jacob laid his head when he dreamed at the angels and the ladder to heaven at Bethel, and which he afterwards anointed with oi}. VA in striking contrast to the costly throne at Windsor Castle is the throne of the Dutch kings at the Hague. It is a comparatively simple piece of furnitureâ€"a kind of glorified arm- chair with drapery. The throne in Amsterdam is more majestic. OVer the seat is a crown, supported by orna- mental lions studded with jewels. The canopy of this throne is exceptionally fine. The Czar of Russia and the Sultan of Turkey each have a large number of thrones. But it is doubtful if there ex- ists in the whole world one superior to the silver throne of the German Emperor in Beriin. This magnificent piece of workmanship has an enor- mous shield, also of silver, over the seat. and the canopy is profusely de- corated with eagles and crowns. Fourteen Teams Still Tied In the Mad Six-Day Whirl New York, Dec. 6.â€"-â€"After thirty-two hours of furious riding, the fourteen teams in the six-day bicycle race in Madison Square Gardens, were still tied this morning, each team having completed 665 miles. This was a re- cord. The old record made in 1908 by McFarland and Moran was 662 miles and 9 laps. There were many thrills through the night in terrific spurts of speed, but apparently the fourteen teams are so evenly matched #1“ that the winning combination will have to do sonie'mmellous wheeling.
