Mr. Atwood was present and addressed thc council. He said all the other churches in thc city had sidewalks to them, and he thought there should be one to Holy Trinity church. Aid. Marlin replied, saying that all the other c' ur.hes had paid for their sidewalks, and if this church would do so it oould get one too, as all sidewalks had to be constructed under the local improvement tax.

A Serious Accident Joe Pounder, the well known pioneer miner and prospector of this district, met witt. a serious if not fatal accident last Saturday about noon. He, with others, was engaged in unloading ties near Lc- quime's sawmill. It became neces- * sary to move some cars, and while in the act of setting a brake on one enr, another car—which was also being moved—butted against the one he was on, throwing him onto a rock- pile below and inflicting terrible injuries. Dr. Northrop was telephoned for, and made all haste to thc scene of the accident, where upon examination it was found thin. Mr. Founder's back had been broken nnd his spine terribly injured. One rib was broken, and the force of the fall had driven it into one of his lungs. The unfortuato man was made as comfortable as possible in the bottom of a rig and conveyed to tho hospital, where everything in the way of medical skill is being done for him. He is a single man, 54 years old. Tomorrow morning Dr. Northrop, assisted by Dr. Kingston, will perform an operation on him at thc hospital. Wm. Pounder, a brother of the injured man, resides up the North Fork. "NOT IF IT COST TEN DOLLARS A bottle'would I bo without Pol- son's Nerviline," writes J. A. Ruth, a farmer living near Trenton, Out. "Nerviline is the best household remedy I know. * We use it for stomach troubles, indigestion, headache and summer complaint. I know of nothing better to take in hot water to break up a cold, or to rub on for rheumatism or neuralgia."

Tbis latest move is to place The News at tho price of $1.00 a year by mail. Only a deep-founded belief in tbe future success of Tho News could lead the publishers to make such a reduction in price. But just as the dollar magazine has taken hold of the people, so, we venture to predict, Thc News will secure a vast and ever-increasing circulation, based not only on the popular price at which it is sold, but mainly upon the intrinsic merits of he paper. \Vc have arrangements concluded which enables us to club thc Toronto News with our own paper nt $2.'2f> a year in advance.

The "Club" OPPOSITE POSTOFFICE, First Street. Riverside Avenue A Complete Carried in Stock and Sold floods in the City* A chaperon it a luxury not within the reach of all girls, uml the only real substitute of value is a brother. But when a brother accepts tbis most useful office be ia looked upon as a "makeshift," and as a person undesirable and incompetent. Therefore, n mother takes pains to secure for her daughter the companionship of almost anyone of her own sex rather than a brother: This is a gross injustice to brothers. Any girl who has been chaperoned by her brother will tell you that he is the best possible person for the office. Any man who has enjoyed the society of a young lady under the chapeionsge of her brother will say the same. Brothers who have acted as chaperons say that a man takes to the work quite naturally and with plenty of confidence. In addition to this evidence, It is common knowledge that the chaperon dislikes her office, is disliked by the young lady she chaper** ons, and by the men who would know the young lady. A man is liked best ns a chaperon because he is broad-minded and generous. He does not want to lead his sister into the moat crowded parts of the flower- show and talk Inanities to old bore*; he doesn't reprove her If she dares to say something funny. He doesn't preserve a countenance of prim severity, and pose as the goddess of propriety. Neither does he take his sister into the company of undesirable men, an lady chaperons often do; he gives audi per-j sons a wide berth, and introduces his little sister only to those men who are I good, honest, whole-hearted fellows. The brother chaperon can give his sister much advice thnl will be of more use to her than etiquette books. He can point out the men she should not know, and he can unhesitatingly expose their worthlemness. lie ean tell her a dozen little things tb.it stamp the good man as a good man, and a dozen others tbat mark thc bad one for what he is. There is no fear of a brother leading his sister into indiscretions. Thnt is the last thing he would do. Ho takes at the -tame time a lively interest in a love affair, and does his best to leave the young couple alone together for five minutes at intervale. The brother chaperon is rare, because the only one available is he who has a greater fondness for hi* nwn sister -than somebody else's.—"Modern Society." Like many Frenchmen, especially tbosi hailing from the south of Frunee, IYpsI dent Loubet ll very fond of those national dishes in which garlic form* an important ingredient. Once, in Ms lawyer days, when he was pleading in court nf ter having partaken of some such dish, his democratic tastes in this respect placed him in a somewhat embarrassing position. The presiding judge happened to be a man of aristocratic origin und breeding, to whom the odor of garlic Wfta absolutely intolerable. M. Loubet rose and began his argument. He had not proceeded very far wben the judge wat* observed to snill' rather uncomfortably and to take out a perfumed handker chief, reinforcing it a few moments later with a smelling-bottle. These measures, however, proved of nojtvnil as n protection from tbe pungent and penetrating effluvium which emanated from the future President of the republir. At last, his olfactory sense .Ifing in open rebellion, the indignant judge shouted: "Usher, open the windows; open the doors. For heaven's sake, let out this abominable smell!" Since then M.
