i ; | As if the towa were not already fur- | nished with sufficient sensation, there has | been added to the poisoning case the dis- | covery of a mystery which will require the | ability ef our detectives to unravel. Yes- terday afternoon, as Mr. W. H. Long and ; # companion were wa'king over Kensington Range, they came across a hole in the ) ground, near a small wcove of trees on the lower end of the Range near the butts Mr. Long’s attention was attracted by some bones that were sticking up inthe bottom of the hole. For curiosity he examined them closely, and then diecovered that they were human bones. He pulled two of them out of the hole and brought them back to town with him. The hole in which the bones were buried had not been lately disturbed, so far ag Mr. Long could observe, and in his opinion the remaining bones of the are there buried deeper down. The bon:s were shown to Dr. Kelly to-day, who declared them to have belonged to the skeleton of a young ehild of 3 or 4 years of age. From their appearance, the doctor thinks they must have been buried some time.

ABOUT HOSIERY !

We're in shape to talk pretty largely about our Hosiery stock this spring and yet talk truthfully.

We'll be modest, however, and simply say it far outstrips anything we've hereto- fore shown.

** You can't afford to miss a good thing when it comes to foot-wear. The feet are at the bottom of everything, and if the foundation isn’t properly looked after the whole building is liable to tumble down.”

We have always kept Hosiery (many ladies say we kept the best), but never had we so large and attractive a variety as now.
