You can't eat enough in a week to last you a year, and yon can't advertise on that plan either. People who advertise only once in three months forget that most Ieople cannot remember anything long- er than seyen days. If you can arouse curiosity by an advertisement it is a great point gained. The fair sex don't hold all the curiosity in the world. Quitting advertising in dull times is like tearing out a dam because the water is low.

The Wiarton Echo says "We know of nothing so generally unsatisfactory as the electric light. It may work well enough in the larger towns and cities, but lor small towns and villages it seems to be a failure."

' Meaford Council has passed a By- law granting $12,000 to their High School.

O., the only routs to which is that afforded by the monntainous 6 and 7 side road. To stand at the foot and survey these precipitcns heights is euongh to bring t«rrdr to the bravest of us. Those who have once clambe- red npthe meandering roadway never want to repeat operation,and they can imagine the difficalties with which these good people have to contend weekly or oftener. It is surprising that their patience bi^ held oat so long. Tlie new office should be er-ta- Uished, without delay. â€" [Boeklyn earrespondenee in Mirror. WaMw'a XUla.
