I'lilting the v average charge of the doctors for i writing prescriptions at 40 cents each, this will show that the abolition ol the har rooms has added to , tluir income during a period of . less than six months just $7,518.80, j 01 a yearly average of $15,037.60. I'lacing the amount purchased on > each prescription at 80 cents, this will show that the drug stores 1 have done a whiskey business ill the same length of time of $15,0 J7.O0, ( or an annual trade "I $30,075.^0. ( oinbining these amounts paid to th<- doctors and tlie djug stores, il * will show that $45,1 i j.8o is spent annually for whiskey in the drug , stores alone. c These figures will show that il | pays t.i be a drug store and a doc- < tor in ' harlotte.

Hie quaint old tosvn of Douustable has observed a local custom, "Mayor bumping," for many years. A few weeks ago the ceremony was carried out with all the details that usually mark the occasion. Immediately after the election the mayor, aldermen and town councillors, headed by a brass band set out for the "beating of the bounds," the ceremony of whicl .v . * ' : < r. V. Ilk- "bumping" is a pain. They marched, followed by a large crowd of the iuha1 ilants of the town and many persons from other places, to the nearest point of the boundary, which happened to be | in (he middle of a ploughed field. Here had been set up a post, around which the crowd had collected. The bellman clanged his bell for orde : the charter of the borough was read, and then, seized by stalwart arms, the mavor was lifted and "bumped" quite hard sev rai : times on the top of the post. Then i teanic the turn of the aldermen in I 01 dei of portliness, each being well j and truly bumped to the entire satisfaction of the people standing*' around. I hit the climax was reached when the inspector of police, with his sergeant and men, was subjected to the same process. With helmets flying and tunics all awry eat.h man was lifted and deposited, none too gently, on the apex of the post. The process was repeated at every point of the boundary, so that when the ceremony was finished many prominent citizens had c\erv reason to remember for a l??ng lime l<> come exactly where She borders of Dunstable cease. Alter litis performance there was! another interesting lo a great many?the lasting of the ale^and I he solemn pronouncement \of the I "a'e laster," a prominent member | "I ihe town council, th.it the ale was^ of "good quality and assiz". hollowing this a number of barrels were openttl and the jolly bumpers and the smarting bumped refreshed themselves with beer.! bread and cheese.
