When the down is brushed from a peach its beauty is so marred that it can never be restored, and when a young girl throws lightly aside that sweet and modest reserve so becoming to a maiden, which elevates her and enables her to command the respect of all, she loseg her greavest charm and becomes rather cheap and common. Furting may seem wonderfally amusâ€" ing to a thoughtless girl and she may getb the idea that she is fascinating, but it is a degrading thing, and should be frowned down by every girl who has an a@mbition to become a worthy and gharming young woman., Cannington, ~Oot., Sapt. 13 â€"A painfal accident cccurred near the villâ€" age of Cresswell yesterday afternoon, and as a result Miss Aunie Muarry, daughter of Mr. James Muarry, a farmer living in the neighborhood, lies at her home in & critical condition.

A very peculiar disease made its ap pearance among Mr. Abel Doeriog‘s cattle last week. Three cattle died in succession and one pig succumbed on Wednesday. Dr. Orr, of Baden, has been investigating to arrive at the csuse of their death. The animals were pasturing in a fie‘ld where once stood a tannery. Dr. Orr maintains that they bave been poisoned by eating the microbes of a disease called anthrax which was at one time prevalent in the Southern States, and which was brought to this country by diseased hides which were probably thrown on the ground in the neighborhood of the tannery, and in that way the germs were depcsited Every precaution is being taken to prevent any more developments of the diseaso â€"New Hamburg Independent.

The ouly hope for th« cauntry apparently lies in the arrogance of the railways.

The Telegram in referring to the case says that the blame rosts with those who made the law. Did they honestly believe that a wrong would be done to anyone if a ticket for which a man had paid his money should be bransferred to another person for a conâ€" sideration ? If not, why did they go out of their way to manufacture crime? For the public will continue to treat with contemptb laws that are nob made for the benefit of the ccmmunity at large, though their infraction is techâ€" nically as criminal as the breaking of jast statutes. _ _In what other country except Carnâ€" ada would such leg‘slation be tolerated?

The farm on which the barn stands consists of 700 acres, all enclosed in neat board fences, and the grain crops are in keeping with the stock. Uap: tain Milloy had 102 acres this year in Genesse Giant, Dawson‘s Golden Cheff and Early Arcadian, which gave an averago yield all round of 31 bushels to the acre. _The animals stalled in the stable are worthy of the quarters provided. Capâ€" tain Milloy has one of the best Durham herds in the Province, 108 head all told, 16 of the number being bulls, old and young. a2 The floor is concrete, the cows mangâ€" ers are concrete, and in troughâ€"like formation in the concrete at the back of the stalls the droppings from the animals are collected. Psrhaps the most noticeable feature about bt4e bairn is the water service. Water drawn from the backs of the Grand River, 1,500 feet away, works a b‘g hydraulic ram, and this ram forces a constant supply of water to a system of piper under the barn. From this system a separato pipe is carried to each stall and conmnected tkere, by autcmatic valve, with an individual metal drinkâ€" ing trough. Eich cow has her own trough at her side from which she can drink as often and as freely as she will. No matter how often she drinks she cannot lower the supply, because the supply is replenished continually from the inexhaustible waters of the Grand River; and no matter how little the cow drinks, there is no danger of an overfl>w, since the automatic valve at the bottom of the trough shu‘ts off the flow as soon as the water in the trough is three icches deep. There is no. pumping, no carrying, no freezing, no throwing about of dirty fluaid ; but there is a constant supply of fresh, pure water for each animal, and the danger of contagion, ever present when & lot drink from the same trougb, is avoided. Light for the basement is farnished by plate glass windows set on a hinge, so as to allow ample ventilation, and venâ€" tbilation is further provided for ty shafts for the purpose. _ The barn itself is built of lumber and timber brought from Savern Bridge and Sudbury, the lumber being absolutely clear, not a sign of a knot in a board of it. The most complete barn in Oatario, and one of the the best in America, can be seen on the farm of Captain Milloy, on the road between Paris and Brantford. ‘This barn is 140x 60, with a stone basement. In the basement are root cellers, tanks cf scfo water supplied from the rainfall carried from the roof, and cattle stalls almost beâ€" yond count. Dr. Hall was on bis annusl visit to Earope.

The cry that is frequently raised about the sslaries paid to cabinet min isters and judges being too lsrge, has its refutation in ths much larger al owâ€"nces made to men occupying po sitions of trust in financial institutions [ake for instance the case of Oronâ€" bhyatekbs, the head of the Independent O der of Foresters. Ho receives a yearly income of $10,000; and a few lays ago was voted $5,000 as a gratu ty for work in connection with the srection of the temple in Toronto. The secretary receives $6,000, and the other officers are paid on a scale equal to ohat of a provincial cabinet minister. The people out of whore pockets these salaries come are the same as constitute the large body cf voters. How is it then, that these people are willing to pay such large sums for work in conâ€" nection with an insurance society, while begrudging half the amount tc the men who direct the work of a Province or a Dominion ! Premier Lrurier receives $8,000 per annum, and is axpected to pay out of that numerous sums for public and chariâ€" tbable grints and entertaining, while the late Hon. C. F. Fraser, who superâ€" intended the erection of the Ontario Parliament Buildings in addition to his regular duties, and built what are believed to be the best public buildings in the world for the money, had to get along on $4,000 per annum, and never got & grant of a cent from the rich province of Ontario for the hard work he performed in connection therewith which cost him his life, It is no wonâ€" der that some of the best men in the country cannot be induced to enter public life where the rewards are so meagre while much better fislds are open to them in the financial world. Tt is said that Sir William V au Horne, President of the Canadian Pacific Railway, draws a salary of $100,000 por annum, and we know from a rcâ€" cent publication that Mr. Hays, mana ger of the Grand Trunk Railway receives $45,000 per annum.
