Britta of Toronto in holidaying at Mr' Martin Phillips'. As the result of a round-up by four detectives of the license department three of the UwenSoundhotelkeepers havebeen sentencedto four months' imprisonment each, while a number of others have been heavily fined. In all there were seventeen charges, the alleged offences having taken place in nine hotels. For three days Magistrate Cieasor has been hearing evidence in con- nection with these cases, and his task is not yet done, as four trials have still to take place. The men sentenced to prison were Andrew Fogarty, Albion Hotel; J<«bua Warrilow, Royal Hotel, and W.a. Leach, City Hotel. 'Thoy had each been previously convicted aud the magistrate was powerless to do anything but sentence them to imprisonment without the option of a fine. Considerable excitement amongst the liquor element in the town has been created by the round-up. The other guilty parties had to pay fines ranging from $60 to $100. The police are search- ing for one man who neglected to pay his fine before leaving town. Messrs. Fogarty, Leach and Warrilow are three of the best known hotelmen in thiK section of the province. The hr>telkenpers have succeeded in avoiding conviction time and again, but the amendment tu the act passed snrre months ago made this more difficult. The coup has been successful this time, thoufih it is understood the usual appeals will be taken. Klffllwrley.

The September Rod and Gun Duck shooting has a mighty fascination iu September and Rod and Gun and Motor Sporta in Canada published by W. J. Taylor, Woodstock, Out., deals in a generous manner with the duck hunter iu Its September issue. Eastern, Central and Western Canada contribute duck hunting stories, and the differences in the conditions under which the sport is pursued in various parts of the country are well brought out. Every duck hunter will sympathize with the work of the Brandon people in making a collection of the native wild fowl and trust their example will be followed iu vai^ious parts of the Dominion. Fishing ind big game hunting expeditions and accounts of the adventures of a ohainman iu "Helping to Makea Railway," and the story of "The Royal Nova Scotia Yacht Squadron" are articles to which particular attention inay bediiaoted. The story of "The Alpine Club's Third Annual Camp" is told in an article by a special representative and oare is taken that those interested in out- door life in any of the phases are not neglected. There is plenty of variety scattered thtough lh« pages of an excel- lent nuniber,not only in the Departments, but also in the nuiueri.us articles and stories making up the issue.

He says: "When I'm ready to sell. I insert a little advctisement in the local papers tellioK what I have to sell, and if live stock, how many head of each and when they will be ready to ship, and the result has boen that the buyers are right after me, either i)en>onally or by mail, and naturjilly I always get the hitthest market. I' I want to buy a horse, a steer, a cow, or a dozen of each, I insert a little advertisement that costs maybe 50o, and instead ot travelling over the country inquiring of my neighbors who has this or that for sale, the homo newspaper dots it fur me at small expense and those who have what I want manage tu let me know in some way."
