Pay Cash
An exchange, in writing en the/Jong

cash for what you get and you. will
get. .it' cheaper. When you buy . on
credit you have to pay not only -your
own debt but all the bad debts of your
merchant.. I -1e tells you frankly that
'if he did'not lose so much he could
sell cheaper to you. By the credit
s stem the retail merchant is forced to
buy on credit, the • jobber.must'do the
same, and the wholesale merchant the

The Relief of Lucknow '
A great many people living in' this
ern s, so .en
one particular thing that° they. ,lose
sight of a great many of the real. objects
of life. With many there, is a laudable
desire to lay by -something for a rainy
day to be enjoyed in the retirement of
old age, but in the struggle, though
successful, they have become prema-
turely old, their health is undermined,
and instead of expected pleasure, they
are attended by those. ills"that make
men miserable. • Our belief then • is
that they live best who give all' their
abilities, physical, mental, mot•al and
social an equal chance to develop,. it
will preserve youth, maintain a green
,old age,. anti makes life worth living.
" All work and no 'play makes. Jack a
dull boy." In this connection it may
be well to Mention that the'Lucknow
Fire Brigade are busily preparing to
give us., an enjoyable outing 'on, the
Queen's natal day. To be in keeping'
with .the occasion it is intended to
hold, a grand military review and
sham bettle,'particulars of which will
appear on the• bills. This` will be
made a�special' feature''of undoubted
success, as no better ground's', for the
display can be found in Canada.
Our citizens and neighbor's are invited
to forget for a' time the 1ivorries and
cares of business and enjoy: the day.
We promise that such a rest will be
like a new lease of life to many.
Live as you go.- ,-Remember. a,iso thin
there will be a..higl'r class concert in
the evening.

Illegal Fishing' •
We heard down street - the other
day ,that a certain "local sport," who
is old enough to know better, has been
guiltily taking trout out of 'season at,
the creek near the oat meal mill.
The ,law 'says that speckled trout,
brook trout,. rover trout,. shall not be'
caught 'between lith Septeinber and
the Ist`of May.. •Bass and maskinonge
shall not be, caught between 15th of
April and 15th of • June. Pickerel

April and 15th of May. , .
Arbor Dayan Interesting Day'
The Minister of Education • says :
'Arbor Day has now become one'of the
most interesting days 'of the year. In.
18^5, 38,940; in 18,86, 34,087 ; in
1887, 28,057 ; and in'1888, 25,714
trees were planted. In a very few
years every rural section in 'the pro-
vince will Have its pleasant, :shrilly

shelter from the scorching sun during
the summer months, and -where their'

Church Opening
. The opening services of the hand-
some new Presbyterian church in this
village will take place on Sunday,
May 1'ltli, when sermons both morning
and evening, will be delivered by the
Rev. Dr. McLaren, of Knox College,
.Toronto. On the following Monday
•
evening I)r. Mcaren will also deliver
a lecture in the church. The opening
services will be continued on May
18th, when Rev. J. Janies,'D. D., of
Walkerton, will preach morning and
evening. A numoer of the neigh-
boring ministers will be present.,
Appropriate .music by the choir.
Collections at all the meetings will be

invited to attend.
Queen's Birthday
On the strength of a numerously
signed regpisition the Reeve has.
proclaimed Monday, May.26th, to be
a public holiday for the celebration
of Her Majesty's birthday: This has
been done in order that the 'regular
Saturday's business may not - be
nterfered with, and also to be neigh-
borly with towns holding their eob-
bration' on Satthrday. In addition it'
will enablraour celebration committee
o.secure special' attractiiins otherwise
nattainable. . the' indications are

Though in framing this bill, the effect
.it would have upon Canada was most

that ballad -A -will be affected" by. 'it, acid
that most seriously, is a {matter quite
et•ident. The United 5 ates supplies:
the market for. •most of that which
Canada has to seil`yeaad it is> estimated
•that at least 80 per cent, of. whatever
duty the Americans impose, Canada
has to pay. For instance. the pro-
posed duty cin .eggs is five cents-- a
dozen and of this, sum. according to
the' above calculattion, the people of
Canada pays 4cents and the people of'
the United States -one cent. The leluty
on cattle is to be $10 a head; which
simply means that ,the Canadian
farmer will have; to take $8 a head
loss for his cattle''than he would have
todo wore there'po duty. And so we
might go on through tab whole list.
