The bicycle tourists left Buffalo city
Monday morning nearly one hundred
strong. No change Of programme has
been announced since our last issue, there
fore they are still expected to dine in
Woodstock on the 18th. They are billed
to leave New Market at 9 o'clock that
morning, aud to reach Winchester for a
late supper and spend the night there
From this schedule, persons desiring to see
them pass, can form an idea Of the time to
be on the lookout Last year when these
tourists passed through Canadian town
each one was presented with button hole
bouquet. They we're 80 much pleased by
this attention, that we suggest that some
of our little Misses do likewise. Don't

for gentlemen do not usually carry this
useful little article. If any one living
along the roadside wishes TO treat some Of
these gentlemen real well, let them bring
out their milk and see how quick it will
disappear.

PettibOne's Defeat

Parson Brownlow's son John used to
tell good story about the canvass for
Congress in Tennessee district by
Maj Pettibone, very eloquent man, q
classical scholar, educated at Michigan
University, and with range and depth
of information which proved his de-
feat. 1t was said that he quoted the
Latin poets, while his competitor told
familiar jokes adapted to the compre.
hension of the not-over intellectual
populace of that region, and thus Sc.
cured his election. One day during the
canvass Taylor and Pettibone were ad-
dressing crowd of mountaineers.
Taylor dealt in jokes and stories suited
to the comprehension of the crowd, and
kept them in roar of laughter. Petit.
bone followed in his usual learned and
solemn style, saying that he should not
attempt to excite the risibles of the in.
telligent crowd.
whats that he saidp" asked q
mountaineer of Brownlow, punching
him in the ribs.
HE said he should not attempt to ex.
cite your risibles." replied Brownlow.
Excite my risiblesr exclaimed the
mountaineer; "what does he mean by
that"
why, he means he won't make you
laugh" replied Brownlow.
Then why didn't he say SOP CAM
vote for no sichr'
And he didn't, and good many
others didn't, and Pcttibone' was de-
feated in q district that in the election

Limit Of Temperature.

Investigation shows that the limit Of
temperature at which men can work
depends upon the length OF their ex-
posture, the amount Of exertion they
put forth, their condition, and the ma
ture of the atmosphere, particularly a.
to its degree Of moisture. II Is stated
that men have been employed on rail-
ways at 104o, in mines-under very
favorable conditions-at 125 ., and are
said to work occasionally in the stoke
holes OF tropical steamers at 1876 . /.
