To write for a paper is one thing; to edit is another. There are some ex- cellent writers who "make a- fool of a paper," if they had the conducting of it for a few weeks. A good editor seldom writes much for his paper; he reads, judges, selects, dictates, alters, combines and to do;all this wellshe^has Uttle time to compose. Those people who have most to say about the way a newspaper should be conductedjare those who know the least of what ih^ are talking.â€" [Pioneer Press.

Rev Father Feeney excelled himself as a general host and made every one feel '•at fhome." The repast was a most sumptuous one, and the music by Mc- Donald the Highland piper was par- ticularly excellent. An exsiting contest took place, between twb lady nominees, for a gold chain and locket, which were won by Miss Mary McMillan. The proceeds wordd have been greater had not a drenching rain deoended just be- fore the allotted time expired. No one gives a hartier welcome to visitors than the Glenelg Highlandmen and next year, if their annual picnic is held earlier in the seasoa, large numbers will attend it. Markdale especially was well represented. â€" [Durham Chronicle. A young daughter of Mrs. Anderson of this village, aged about 13 got danger- ously Iwmed a few days ago. She sat down on the damper of the stove, fell asleep, and was awakened by her dress being on fire. She attempted to brush it out with her arm, which had only the effect of setting her sleeve on fire. She then got frightened and ran out, when an elder sister ran after her, but b^or^ they could get out the flames the young girls back and one arm was terribly boned, while the sisters hands wer^ badly blistered in trying to put the flame out. Dr. McCullou^hasbeen attending the snfferer since and considers the case a serious one. â€" [Chatsworth cor. •in O. S. Advertiser. Shebp Worbibd.â€" Mr. Tbo8.Scar ,of G. B.
