Keeping in Tench III these days of history making in the Empire, and of crear. national develop- iiient and pnlitica! -irowth in Canada, all classes "f people are realizing. Ihe necess- ity of follow i,',i; the wold's doings, day by day. more tb.an evi-r before. The puli- lic inu-.c have the neivi a'ld hav • it imme- iliately, and .so the dady newspaper sup- |)!ants the city woekly among all classes. The kaleidosc^'po of hu:nan aiiairs is rapid in all Its Miovenient". A week is too long to wait for llie woidd's news. In these days of keen business competitio'i, mer- ubants and farmers nin,st have market ipjotations fr. â- ni day to day, Moreover.'t is now possible to obtain one of Toronto's greatest dailies â€" The News â€" for the price of the city tt-iekly. §10() a year by mail. The News sets forth the news of tho day in an aitractive form. Its political reports ai-e free from pari/ bias, and its market repor's comprehensive and accurate. Every day a cliapter of-« dist class serial appeals â€" just enough, say, for a half lionr's reading. N-jiiher dues The News lack: the maga- zine features of the city weekly. The Saturday edition, containing twenty four pages, IS of special interest to women.aud, indeed, to every member of the family. Everyone should write for a sample copy of The Ni-ws, and particulars of their i;euerous clubbing offers. A friend writing from Grand Rapid.", Michig;u», says: "This (last) week's Advance contains some of the best news- paper clubbing propositions I have ever seen offered, and should be productive of 2"od results. In fact, I believe they aie '.he best ever advertised by a reputable newspaper. A leaflet entitled " A message to those who are far back in their studies" intro- duces a new departure in educational work. The Northern Business CoHetie, Owen Sound, has started a department to assist young peo[)lo who have not had a chance to get a fiiil public .school training. Mr. Tom Fawcetr of the third line Euphrasia, brought in last week a tine speciuu'ii of the arctic owl, which ke had captured. Tliis bird visits us rarely in wiuler, iiM habitat being much further iioith. They are probably the most handiiome large bird in America, pure white with dark S[ieck3. This spociiiieii is in the taxidermifli's hflads and will be added to The Advance museum. The steamer City of Windsor mn ashore at Squaw point, near Owen Sound, in a snowstorm last week. Thi.s is the ves.sei wliich cut rlirough a raft ot logs last suminsr, near Little Current, breaking her wheel and rudder post, necfSsita'.mg a tow t" Owen Sound. She has been somewhat unfortunate. Joseph Crow, a young man who drives bus tor Mr. Patterson, was aiTaitrned before Magistrate VanDii.sen-on ^dol.day chaiged 'oy W. Tiiwible with having ua-..al i;ro.ss!y atniKive and insulting language at the station on Friday night last. The young inan claimed to hive been under the iniluence of liquor at the time and said ho did not remember anything about it. .^rti^r two or three witnesses had been heard the magistrate impr>si;d a line of five dollars and S6.t>(5 co.sts, a total of Sll 015, or ill default of payment thirty days in jail. Ho .ilso took occasion to read the young man a salutary lesson which should have a good eflfeet on his future ci'uducl. Municipal Matters The munieipd pot in Arteiuesia this year is not likely ti> have any excuse for refusing to effer-.tisce. Mr. Muir has aiiU' unced hi«i.se!f as a candidate for the "OBVeship, and iliia week wr ure in- formed that tlieie i.s a likelihoo.l of Mr. McTavisli be ng again in the field and th.it Mr. J'lhii Hovd *ill aho be a candi- date Should Mr. ThoB>p(iC» .a'.H) coiue out it would make an intcrostiiig e»)nte3i. For tlie council there will, tixj, be no lack of candidHtes. Two new men have an- nounced ihem.solves in this issue as oeing definitely in the tb-ld, Messrs. W. J. Meads and Alex. MoRae, jr. It the township does not secure a aood council next year it will not be because of want of w«At of ££qd (iuitDir to chooM {co.m„^ Tho well at the public school grounds, Chesloy, is troubled with both colon bacilli and streptooocii. The diseane is fatal and the trustees will bore a new well. Mr. W. H. Wright was at Ottawa this week in the case of Dillon vs. Mutual Re- serve Inaurauce Co.. which was tried here in 1902 and appealed. From Court of Ap- peal it went to the Supreme court, was dismis.sed and will come up here again at next assi^ses. â€" O. S. Sun. On Monday night lait at Allan Park Hotel, a strange death is reported. Mr. Nicholas Stitcher, for the past twelve or fourteen years a resident of this place, where he worked as a shoemaker, went into the hotel and had a few drink.s, after which he sat down in a chair at the bar room. A couple of hours later an attempt was made to wake him up, when it was found that ho w,i.8 scone dead and had in all probability been dead for an hour or more. He was a man of about seventy- live years of age, and having had for some time a premonition that he would drop off suddenly, made provisions for hii burial, imd as he had no relations hnre communi- cated to one of his neiiiht-ors that the money would be found on his person which proved to be correct, â€" Chronicle. The Chesley Enterprise gets off the following facetious " whack " at the Grand 'Trunk train service; "Ac the beginning of the 19th century steam loco- uietives were drat spoken of as a lueaiis of tran.sportation. Tlio Royal College of Bavarian physicians s: usiht to interdict the new method on the ground that going at the prodigious rate of 12 miles an hour would produce delirium furiosum among the passeniora. At the beginning of the 20th century those who' travel on ohe afternoon mail and e.^presa train on this braoch which is souietiiiii's not more than six hours going the 72 milea from Che.sley to Guelph, are actually suti'eriim fxAn delirium furi"suiii because they do not travel at a greater rate than twelve miles an liour. Truly medicine is an empirical science." A izood story is being told in Montrea' says The Witness, ilkis'rativo of the higii spiri's and keen wit of the Premier. The refereuces to Mr.Tartes .solicitude for the health of Sir Wilfrid at tlie time he was in weak health a year ago will be remember- ed. At the Laval student's dinner last week, so the story goea, Sir Wilfrid met Mr. Tarte. The Prime Minister cordial'y greeted his former Minister of Public Works, and laying his hand sympathet- ically on his shoulder remarked slyly ; "My dear fellow, hov/. are you ageincr. You are getting ijuite gray and worried looking. You will have to take good care of yourself,or we shall be losing you some of these days." Consideiing that this re- mark w;i8 made by the man who waa said to bo dying a year ago, and addressed to the man who was understood to bo the most ready believer in the statement, it was repeated as one of the best political stories of the year.
