 The cattle exhibit this year exceeds al other years in it's size and quality Of animals exhibited. One of the most notable exhibits in the long sheds where hundreds of head of stock are greatly admired, is that of the Lonsdale Farm i of Lonedale. F. l.

FORGET PASSAGE OF TIME
Neither at Work or in the Hours of
Play Does 1t Pay to Watch
the Clock.

AT only one time does the average
human being measure time with eff
fort, and that is when he is goaded
by fear. Scare q man with impend-
ing disaster, with bodily danger or
with death and he becomes really ac-
tive Time doesn't drag then The
clock hands if he took time to look
al them, would seem like racehorses
in their speed.
Don't be a clock watcher. Work
while YOU work with so much energy.
so much interest that time doesn't
matter
Play when you play with so much
abandon. so much enthusiasm that the
day passes without your measurement
The man who measures time in
cycles or circles is wrong.
Time must he computed In a straight
line along which there is no backward
motion.
You can never have yesterday again.
If you wasted ii. try and make today
DO double duty. But you can't do that
Il you watch the clock-F. A. Walker

o. a MEXICAN women have been edu-
4 n Gated in footwear up TO a point
where they are more fastidious than
discriminating. They have long been
shod with the most graceful and ex-
quisitely finished of shoes and have
come to give more and more attention
TO style and daintiness and somewhat
less to appropriateness. This sweep
ing assertion does not apply TO all Of
them. but holds good for a majority,
as one may prove by watching pedes-

mand is for less substantial and more
