THE flowing well is now abandoned! by the Gas and Oil Company, but the water .is still squirting up to the height of about ten feet through a small hole left in the plugging. We still think it a pity the electors did‘ inot see their way clear to make use of it for town requirements. We think there is a grand opportunity for a private company to take hold of it and supply those who are will-- ing to pay a reasonable rate for what they get. Surely the greater portion of the citizens would like good pure Water even if they did see tit to vote against the by-law.

The young lad whosel death we chronicle was an exceeding-1 ly bright boy in his eighteenth year, giving much promise of a long and useful life. Last Uuly he passed his Junior Leaving Examination and up to two weeks ago was attending the Model School here, looking hopefully for“ ard to himself being a teacher during the ensuing year. Such,.how- ever, was not to be the case, for he was stricken down With acute Brights disease. and after. eight days’ con- finement to bed the poor suffering patient succumbed to the ailment on Monday last, deSpite the best efforts of the fond parents who spared nothing in medical aid and skilful nursing to prolong life, It is indeed a hard trial for Mr. and Mrs. McGirr, and only those who know by experi- ence what it means can realize the exrent of their sorrow. The sorrow- ing parents and members of the fam ily have the entire sympathy of the community, and as a token of respect the model and public school teachers and pupils placed a. handsome wreath on the cofl‘in expressive of their sor- row. The Chronicle joins in sym- pathy with the distressed relatives.

Another ridiculous food [ad has been branded by the most competent authorities. They have dispelled the silly notion that one kind of food is needed for brain. another for muscles, and still another for bones. A correct diet will not only nourish a particular part of the body, but it will sustain every other part. Yet, however good your food may be. its nutriment is destroyed by indigestion or dyspepsia. You must prepare for their appearance or prevent their coming by taking regular doses of Green’s August flower, the favorite medicine of the healthy millions. A few doses aids digestion. stimulates the liver to healthy action. purifies the blood. and makes you feel buoy- ant and vigorous. You can get this reliable remedy at Darling’s Drug Store.

Read his ad. \Ve understand that it is the in- tention of the Gas Company to raise the price of gas from 180 to 25c per thousand feet on December lst. This will make the second raise in gas since it was first used and as the price goes up the service gets worse and at present it is worse than use- less. And in the face of these facts the company are about to raise the price. We venture to say that by the time the raise in price comes there! won’t be enough gas used in the en-} tire town to suffocate a child. The customers, we are certain, will not suffer such preposterous unreason- ableness. As we have already said the service is useless. The best light ,in town is about as much use as an ordinary wax match. while for heat- ing purposes one might about as well use a snowball. This is about me un- reasonable an action as the company could be guilty of. Instead of rais- ing the price they should remunerate their customers for having to put up with the farce. Our suggestion to the company would be to discontinue supplying gas for heating purposes and use it for illumination only.â€" , Hepworth Journal. A subscriber to a farmer’s paper asked this question : “ At what time and under what circumstances may a farmer shoot stray dogs on his premises? ” The answer the paper gives to this question is as fol- lows, and it would be well for owners of dogs to bear it in mind: “ He may kill any that he finds astray be tween sunset ‘and sunrise on his farm if sheep are kept thereon, unless such{ dog be securely muzzled or accom-j panied by or in reasonable call or control of the person having it in charge. Even in such case the dog. may be killed if there is reasonable apprehension on the part of the far- mer that such dag if not killed is likely to wound or worry sheep or lambs then on his farm. He may also kill any dog which he sees pur- suing, worrying or without lawful permission to any enclosed field on his farm and found by him to be giv- ing tongue and terrifying any sheep or lambs thereon.” .
