Surely the average mind will ad- mit that we have been dormant long enough. and now that fortune smiles upon us, is no suficient reason for a jealous misrepresentation 0! our real merits. We have certainly been modest all along the line, we have rejoiced with sister towns in their prosperity, sorrowed with them when they passed through periods of adversity, and now. that the time has come for us to go ahead, we ex- pect nothing more than our due. Let every man do his share towards making his own town prosperous, and stop that eternal growling about hard times and all the rest of it, and we feel that a more general prosperi- ty will result from the efiort.

As it is with individuals in the same town, so it is with one town or one city towards anather, just as soon as a rich find is made. and an honest elort is being put lorth for the profitable development of some 0! nature’s rich gilts.

Every one may be, and no doubt is, anxious to see a general up-lifting and up-building of his own town. but somehow or other there are in every community those who allow them- selves to be carried away by a sort of chronic jealousy that seizes them every time their neighbor happens to meet with a streak of luck, and had they only been in time to forestall the deal, it would never have been consummated. This, to us. seems unreasonable and unfair, and simply because one man possesses a better faculty than another for getting possession of this world’s goods, is no reason why he should be branded as a rogue or a thief just as soon as prosperity begins to smile upon him. buide'a. ii in like . snow-drift, no all glad to got out of it.

It might be excusable in a physic- ian to make a mistake in diagnosis. but to persist therein to the detri- ment of the public. was enough. in Dr. Bryce’s Opinion, to characterize him as an enemy of the State. Dr. Bryce went on to say that the conduct of certain physicians in 0p- posing the health authorities was worthy of severe reprohation. In View of the privileges accorded to the profession, the Ontario Medical Coun- cil, he recommended, should sum- mon such ofiendera before it and punish them. They were more dan- gerous to the community than self. confessed quacks. The Special report on the smallpox epidemic of the past quarter was read by Dr. Bryce. It was. he said, the worst outbreak in the province in 20 years, regard being had to the num« ber of municipalities afiected rather than to the number of persons at- tacked or the fatalities which had ensued. It was the accident of the disease first occuring in lumber camps in unorganized districts that the sudden and widespread character of the epidemic was due. A case at Bracebridge early in February re- sulted in tracing smallpox to a hither- to unsuspected point, Sudbury, where eight cases had existed unknown to the authorities. The cases at the American hotel were reported by the police magistrate as chickenpox on February 13. .whereas on the day previous the Mayor had telegraphed to Dr. Bryce that smallpox existed. It was found that cases of the disease had been reported as grippe, chicken- pox, etc. Within a short time cases were reported from many points in Algoma. In some cases the local health ofiicers persistently refused to recognize the disease as smallpox, and had declared it to be chickenpox. In almost every instance the hands of the local health board had been tied and the disease had spread thereby. J enectment ehcll he eholiehed.

The serious nature of the smallpox outbreak in Ontario is apparent. from ‘he reports presented. Since Janu- ary lat no leu than 430 cases have occurred, resulting happily in but. (our death. Some startling charges were make against the medical profession at the meeting of the Provincial Board of Health, in Toronto last week, the most important meeting that body has held in some years. Smallpox was the chief subject discussed. Secretary Bryce recommended that certain physicians who have obstruc- ted the health authorities, and who have issued false certificates of Vac- cination. be disciplined by the On- tario Medical Council.

Now money and plenty of it is about the only thing we need to make us perfectly happy. We form- erly referred to an ofler to exchange pills for advertising, but it was not till last week that we were asked to make an exchange of space for a certain number of bars of soap, and other articles. This is no joue but the plain unvarnished truth and while the soap may be all the makers claim it to be, our opinion is that most newspaper publishers need something to eat and wear as well as a box ol soap to keep their laces clean. No thanks, we can’t take soap. . There is an air of serene quietness “round this Burg, which induces re- pose. This seems to be appreciated by many oi our residents who since .lhe return of warm sunshiny days tmay be seen daily sitting on their doorstt-ps and under their verandahs busily engaged in doing nothing. From various causes we feel satisfied that this is the ideal spot for retired farmers. If a law more of our most energetic residents would move to more busy scenes and a few more retired farmers [move in it would put the finishing touch on this place. An earthquake or some other con- vnlsion of nature seems to be the only thing that will prevent a con- dition of deadneca here that will eventually culminate in a return to a state of quietness only to be found ‘ in the dense {crests of Africa or the icy wilderness of the Arctic circle.
