J, Snowdon waa unable to fill his a|pointments of last Sabbath owing to illness. At last accounts he was recovering. The shriek for "wood," "wood," is still heard. As high as $1.75 per cord for stove wood has been paid lately, so scarce is it. BudldiDg operations are about over for the season. It is altogather likely that next season there will be consider- able additions to our village. Notwithstanding the dull times, real estate transactions are numerous. Several gentlemen from Lansdowne have purchased farms near here at good figures, diuring the past week. The few days of sleighing that we had last week caused a marked increa- se in business. Municipal matter are still uncertain. It is rumored that J. J. Middleton will be an aspirant to the Reeveship of Proton, The storm of last week put a stop, for a while at least to the work on the drains. Mr. Wheelock P. L. S. has oversight of the work.

The competition between the Mt-Forest photographers, King and Barnes is interesting, each of che proprietors had an increaee in their family this month.
