It was a critical case but fortunately he is now on the‘ road to recovery. He arrived home Monday night, but it will yet besome time before he can engage in any kind of work. \Vlfi reported Mr. Dave Smith at the Stratford hospital where be under- went an operation a couple of weeks ago. It was seen that another opera.- t-ion would have to follow shortly. but the second .was deferred till he got partly over the first, ' The second was performed last week and we are glad to learn that he is getting along well. His condition was more. serious than at first anticipated, and it will be some time. before he will be fully recovered. A CURIosxTY in the shape of a sun- flower may be seen in the back yard of Mr. John Clark. If not a curiosity. it is certainly a very prolific plant of its kind, bearing as it does thirty-six well developed heads all of which promise to come to maturity. In the early days a patch of sunflowers was a very common thing on every farm, the sun- flower andzthe poppy being the chief floral productions. They are not so common now-a-days. but their cultiv- ation might yet yield a fair measure of profit. CARDS 0F THANKS are often found in the local newspapers after death occurs in a family. For some time we have decidedly objected to the publica- tion of onituury poetry at less than ten cents a line. Since a. fixed charge was made we have had none to pub- lish, and to kill the practice was our sole object in fixing the rate. Most of the obituary poetry is not fit to pub- lish, and we think that friends of the deceased will quite agree with us when their sorrow wears off. Cards of thanks are a little different. but they are quite‘as unnecessay. In times of sickness persons with a spark of humanity in them will render what assistance they can and will never think of the formal Card of Thanks. age. He was in the car completely over, and from of the upside down car he urday who escaped unhurt from the awful rail way disaster which occurred on the Horseshoe at the foot of the Caledon Mountain. The boy was a son of the late Alex. Dargavel, of Manitoba. and was apparently not more than twelve or thirteen years of age. He was in the car that turned completely over, and from the bottom of the upside down car he was helped out. through the window minus a por- tion of one of his trouser legs which had to be torn oi! to free the debris that Wedged him in.

During his absence Mr. Campbell was engaged in building himself a summer cottage at Norway Point Where he purchased a lot. He did the greater portion of the work himself, and no doubt everything was “well and truly done.” The most populous portion of the Summer City at Norway Point is occupied by so many clergymen that it bears the name of the “Saint’s Rest.” Whether Saint or Sinner, we imagine from the way Mr. Campbell talks that he didn’t have much rest during his absence. He boasts of being a pioneer of the spot on which he erected his summer cot- tage, and looks upon the work done as a fair start in his “ settlement duties.” Other properties are being picked “P rapidly, and it will not be long till this fashionable suburb of Norway Point will assume considerable proportions.

OUR Flesherton correSpondenc gives a. good nccmmt; of the condition of Fleshercnnians who were injured in the Qatednn Railway wreck. Mr. Richardson is still confined to the hos- pital, but; we hope he will soon be able to return to his home and family. Dave Madilldidn’t, seem L0 be selfish and like a. good man he wished to give piefexence to the women. Amongst the injmed was Mr. John S. Black of Pomona. Two weeks ago we referred to a. theft committed in the store of Mr. J. H. Rose. The thief was arrested the next day at Holstein and brought here by Chief Constable Clark. A trial be- fore Police Magistrate Telford follow- ed, the thief pleading guilty but as- signing drunkenness as the cause of his action. He was committed to Owen Sound for six months at hard labor. The thief was very penitent, and from his accent we would put him down as a Frenchman. He had been trying to dispose of some of the stolen articles at Holstein when seen by John Murdock. who notified the authorities here. This item was inadvertantly omitted last week. IT is estimated that four hundred men attended the Crossley and Hunter meeting “For men only.” on Sunday afternoon last. The subject was “Personal Purity” and the address though out of the ordinary, was very appropriate and will do much good if his advice be followed out. The re- marks would not do for a mixed audience, but to men alone. and to young boys in particular there were many- things told that are generally neglected by parents and guardians. The mock modesty of too many par- ents often leads to miseries that might be averted if parents would only do their whole duty in regard to their children. The meetings are held in the Rink, and we should judge that fully a thousand were present on Sun- day evening. WE regret to learn that Mr. Siegner is in financial difficulties and has made an assignment for the benefit of his creditors. Since Mr. Siegner came here a few years ago he has been held in much esteem by all who had deal- ings with him. He was regarded as honorable and straight in every way, and no man, so far as we know, can point to a single dishonorable or dis- honest act. If others had paid him, Mr. Siegner would not have been forced into an assignment, but money ‘is tight and those owing him were slow to respond. Had these .done their duty Mr. Siegner could easily have tided over the difficulty. \Ve say again we regret the circumstances and more than that we despise a small souled man who rejoices over the downfall of another. We believe an honest eifort was made to. straighten the difficulty and that Mr. Siegner today is a far more honest man than many who will sneer at him. - WHILE Dr. Hutton who was accom- panied by Alderman W helan, was driving along the gravel road a short distance south of J ames Burt’s, on Tuesday last, a peculiar accident oc- curred which will cause Mr. Whelan to stay in the house for a few days. At a point where there is a high fill they met another rig and the horse in the other rig shied ofi on the side of the bank. The Dr. and Mr. Whelan looked to see if an accident was likely to occur when their horse was evident- ly drawnto the side of the road and went down the steep bank. Mr. W helan was thrown out and fell on ‘ a stone which caused him some injury. Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Bryan. who were the occupants of the'other buggy were also thrown out and the buggy turned upside down. They escaped, however; with a few bruises which will not keep them long from their Work. Mr. Whelan is under Dr. Hutton’s care who says he was to blame largely for the mishap. Under the circumstances it isn’t likely Tom will be long in get- ting well. The Dr. will have no Ob- ject in keeping him there. DURHAM, 0NT., THURSDAY. SEPTEMBER l2. 1907.
