We haye received numerous idquire s
| as TO the origin and meaning of the
new station, AvOca. on the new line of
the L. 81 p. NJ. R'y from here to Port
| Huron Avoca, or Ovoca, is a small
river in Wicklow county. Ireland, and
enters the sea at ArklOw. 1t runs
! through very narrow and picturesque
valley, enclosed between wooded banks
from 300 to 500 feet high. It's meaning
! is the meeting Of waters. The Vale Of
Avoca" is the subject of one of Moore's
songs.
A new industry has sprung up on this
side of the river. Michigan offers q
| bounty of three cents head for Eng
| llsh sparrows. Some enterprising in
dividuals in this neighborhood have
been slaughtering these birds by the
| thousand. taking them over to Port
Huron and securing the reward. One
man raked in over $50 in one haul.
The supply is inexhaustible and as long
as Port Huron pays the shot the boys
will provide the sparrows.-Sarnia

A two-cent stamp sent to l.. w.
Noyes, Chicago, will bring you pack
age of fine quality blotters. One show
ing a cunning little cupid dressed only
in travelling cap and grip, is repre-
sented as saying: II am a runner for
LaVerne w. Noyes. the well-known
maker of dictionary holders, and am
were to point out the fact that a book
held with the edge up will become
filed with dust. soiled and spoiled un-
less hugged together with strong
springs. The Noyes holders are the
only ones thus clasping the book.
About 5000 are now in use, and the
latter makes are so greatly improved
indeed are so perfect that Mr.. Noyes is
sad because nothing more is desired or
can be done in this direction"
Beware of the man who is always
telling you what some one else said, or
of the shortcomings and mistakes of q
neighbor. One hundredth part of the
stories circulated about people are not
true. A man may take drink now
and then, and it is bound to reach the
ears of some one who will roll it as a
sweet morsel around his villianous
tongue, and he gleefully reports the
man as gone to the dogs" or as n
heavy "lusher." A man becomes!finan-
cially embarrassed. perhaps only tenn
porarily. and too many eagerly and
with seeming relish, gloat over it and
report him as about "busted" and that
! he will "have to go under sure" such
people do world of harm, and ar
| misnomer to the word man. Suc'
pie misquote what you am
people say, add to it hundr
any shortcomings of you
and detract from and r
good deed that you
| form. But wher
that is expecte
others assail W
friends. Woul,
if they profess f.
those assailed
