That is the attitude of the business world on the approaching election- not only of the great business enterprises of the country, but of the masses of small investors, the aggregate of whose riches makes up the bulk of the na tion's wealth. And, it is this attitude of the business inter ests of the country which will road should " receive favorable i'onideration at the hands ol the County Court, and-doubtless will when the matter comes before the Court.

MORE HOUSES NEEDED Every dwelling house and every available room of any kind iu Madras which could bo temporarily converted into resi dence quarters has been quick ly rented, and still there is a demand for houses. This is due largely to the number of lamilies who have moved into town in order to take ndvnm tage of our excellent school fa cilities. The demand for houses offers a splendid field for in vestment in small cottages to rent, for the prices paid for rent here insure? a good return on the investment. Several persons who are now occupying rented houses have announced t heir" intention of building and occupping their own houses in the Spring, and one or two are considering the matter of building cottages to rent. This promises relief in ihe Spring, but in the meantime new families are moving in every week, and there is a con staut demand for houses. So arithas been possible to. find a room .or a "corner" tor them somewhere. loi Sale Having boon transferred to Mhnie- HOtn. I hereby olrer fornahi llio follow liiir: l Deokor unrldlit dIiuio.
