A REAL UATASTROPHE. Philip, aged four. is in the habit of going across the street. to a neighbor’s house fol milk. One day in December he returned home with an empty bucket and a. grave face. “\Ve can’t getany more milk.” he announced in a- tone weighty with the importance of his message. "The cow‘s dried up.” And. as we stared in surprise at him. he suddenly clinched the matter with an observation evidently of his ownâ€" "They don’t, think she’ll thaw out till Spring.”â€"THE DEL‘INEATOR for Jan- uzn‘y.

Public opinion is strongly in favor of amending the criminal code so that the evil'of raCe track gambling may be encoaraged instéad of encouraged. ' The] towns of Newmarket and Aurora are each advertising a by- law to prohibit the sale by retail of spirituous. fermented or other manu- factured liquors in those municipali- ties. By all accounts the by-law is likely to carry in each of those towns, although a three~fifths majority is necessary. As these towns lie so closely to each other it is to he hoped that it local option carry in one it will also'carry in the other. In fact some temperance men think it Wuuld not be the success it ought to be if carried in only one of those places and rejected in the other. That being the case would it not be well to have it understood that the Coun- oil of one of the municipalities that might carry the measure would not give the by-law the third reading, after the vote, unless it were carried in the sister municipality? We be- lieve that such an arrangement would greath strengthen the tem- perance party. NighL . . . V 4 . . . . . . . .
