ed on the sport by coming home
late at night. II seems the opinion
OF many that nothing that wears
wool has any rights that white men
are bound to respect.
There was an excellent statute
passed in 1871 entitled can act to
protect and encourage the raising Of
sheep, and discourage the raising OF
dogs 1t provides for their being
registered and taxed, as formerly
and for aiding injured parties in
recovering damages for loss of sheep.
1t also says in Section 9, that the
County Board shall have power to
determine whether or not their coun.
ty shall be governed by the act or
be exempt from its operation.
Since the remedy is in the hands
OF the County Board, to restrain the
destruction Of farmers property so
often complained of, why should it
not be used ?

A MYSTERY.

rustic path was treading, when the sun
his rays were shedding-beaming, cleaning
fairly streaming through the trees; and
watched the streamet gllstening, as entranced
l there was listening to the melting merry
music on the breeze; when beneath a tree
reclining where no ray Of sun was shining, lol
saw fellow-being on the ground. Though
no other feature shifted, quickly he his eyes
upIiited as he wildly looked around. "Good
irlend," said l, approaching" do not charge
me with encroaching; are you waiting for
some messenger of news ?o But no other
word he uttered ami no other sentence mutIer-
ed, save you'll find no place like Burr's TO
buy your Boots and Shoesn
THAT'S strange expression, surely" said
looking down demurely. 81 trust, good sir,
that you the question will excuse"
But he only looked the prouder, as be spoke
the words the louder: s1There is always sat-
isfaction given by Burr's good boots and
shoes" "Why, bless me man, | shouted,
as his sanity | doubted, "'Tis surely naught
to me what peoples goods you use.v
But he only cried the higher, with eathu-
siastic fire, ''You'll save you- Cash by buy
ing Burr's best boots and shoes"
So ! left him there reclining, where no ray
OF sun was shining and frequently wonder
ed at the words the man did use thinking
surely twas a mystery aud that some hidden
history was weaving round myself and Burr's
good Boots and Shoes.
So resolved TO try them; nay, felt COM
PEELED TO buy them. And behold Pve cause
for gladness, that the words / deemed were
madness induced me thus 10 purchase Burr's
hrst-class Boots and Shoes.

C0NGREGATIoNAL S S. CONCERT. =
The most successful and satistacto ry
concert yet given by the members
of the Congregational S. s., came
to pass last Sunday evening. a nd
was attended by as large an audi
ence as the church could accommodate.
Deacon Howe conducted the exer-
cises, which comprised music, prayer.
addresses and scriptural recitations.
Mr.. Chamberlin, Principal of the
Lancaster public school, spoke brief
ly to the children. telling them
about the great pyramids of Egypt
the years consumed and the men
employed in building them-their
great durability, resisting for untold
ages "the tooth of time and rszure
of oblivion"-and concluded by re-
marking that as the old Egyptians
reared these wonderful structures,
so should the young proc eed in the
work of building up grand, noble and
ever.during characters.
Mr.. L. A. Burr read a good story
with somewhat prominent moral,
and the Rev Mr.. Eaton closed the
entertainment with an address as
excellent as it was appropriate. He
spoke Of the Bible. saying that men
of the greatest erudition have ever
