A REMARKABLE CASE.

The following case was printed origin
ally in the Monitor, published at Meaford,
Ontario. Doubts were raised as to its
truthfulness, consequently close watch
was kept for two years and the original
statement has now been completely verb
fed. Mr.. Petch had been hopeless paraly'
tic for five years. His case has had wide
attention. He was confined to his bed,
was bloated almost beyond recognition,
and could not take solid food. Doctors
called the disease spinal sclerosis, and all
said he could not live. The Canadian
Mutual Life Association, after thorough
examination, paid him his total disability
claim of 81, $3.50, regarding him incurable.
For three years he fingered in this con-

THE VICAR OF THE BRAY.

In good King Charles golden days,
When loyalty no harm meant,
A Jealous high churchman was I,
And so I got preferment.
To teach my flock I never missed:
Kings were by God appointed,
And lost are those that dare resist
Or touch the Lords anointed.
And this is law that I'll maintain
Until my dying day, sir,
That whatsoever king shall reign,
Still I'll be the Vicar Of Bray, sir.
When royal James possessed the
crown,
And popery grew in fashion,
The penal laws I hooted down,
And read the declaration;
The Church of Rome I found would fit
Full well my constitution;
And I had been Jesuit
But for the revolution.
And this is law that I'll maintain,
etc.
When William was our king declared,
To see the nations grievance;
With this new wind about I steered,
And swore to him allegiance:
Old principles I did revoke,
Set conscience at a distance:
Passive obedience was joke,
A jest was non-resistance.
And this is law that I'll maintain,
etc.
When royal Anne became our queen,
The Church of England's glory,
Another face Of things was seen,
And I became tory;
Occasional conformists base,
I blamed their moderation;
And thought the church in danger was
By such prevarication.
And this is law that I'll maintain
etc.
When George in pudding time came
DER,
And moderate men looked big, sir,
My principles changed once more,
And so became whig, sir;
And thus preferment procured
| From our new faiths defender;
And almost every day abjured
The pope and the pretender.
And this is law that I'll maintain
etc.
The illustrious house of Hanover,
And Protestant succession,
! To these I do allegiance swear
While they can keep possession:
For in my faith and loyalty
I nevermore will falter,
And George my lawful king shall be-
Until the times do alter.
And this is law that I'll maintain
etc.

A HARVEST OF HUMAN HAIR.
Millions of Pounds Every Year Get
Tangled Up in Commerce.

Perhaps there is no staple article
about which less is known by the
everage person than human hair as
an article of commerce. It will
doubtless surprise many when it is
stated that the dealers in human hair
goods do not depend on chance clip
pings here and there, but that there is
a regular harvest that can always be
relied upon. It is estimated that over
100000 pounds of human hair are
ued annually in the civilized world for
adjoining the heads of women. In
New York city alone over four tons OF
this class of goods are imported year
ly.
mot little of the hair used in this
country said a New York dealer,
comes from the heads of American wo-
men and is fully as fine in shade and
texture as the imported article. We
had big harvest during the craze
that the fair sex had not long ago for
having their hair cut short. Many
thousands of women who then had
their locks sheared have since bitterly
regretted it, as in many instances
their hair has grown so slowly that
they have been compelled to wear
wig or a switch since the fashion
changed. After the majority of wo-
men reach the age of 80 the hair
seems to partially lose it's vigor, and
if cut it will not grow long again.
Two-thirds of the ladies nowadays
use false hair more or less. The de-
cree of fashion, or the design to con-
ceal a defect or heighten charm, is
the reason, of course. One woman,
for instance, has high forehead and
wishes to reduce it in appearance.
Another has worn off the front hair
by continued frizzing, and would like
to conceal the fact. Both make use
Of a front or top piece, with a choice
Of many styles.
Ladies wigs cost from $40 to $500.
Half wigs, top pieces and switches
from $40 to $50, according to quality.
''The largest supply of hair comes
from Switzerland, Germany and the
French provinces. There is a hui
man hair market in Merlans, in the
department of the lower Pyrenees,
held every Friday. Hundreds of hair
traders walk up and down the one
street of the village, their shears
dangling from their belts, and inspect
the braids which the peasant girls,
standing on the steps of the houses.
let down for inspection. If bar
gain is struck the hair is cut, and the
money paid on the spot, the price
varying from so cents TO SIS in oul
money.
"a woman's hair may grow to the
length Of six feet. And I know a
lady who has been offered and refused

Secretary Of Agriculture for a modi-
fication of quarantine rules and n re-
establishment of the line for infected
districts, SO that certain equities of
California will be out or quarantine

says: "That's all right, l don't care
about Governor Budd, he can't fool

California through the State, Cover

tine station be established where
