Smith, from whom copies can be had on application. •-1:11ealirr,Lucknow- There are so many instances of farmers being defrauded when dealing with strangers who represent that they are,sellinnbgoods so much below what they,maybe obtained at from our own dealers, that too much care cannot be taken when coming in contact with these gentry. Farmers should trade with the dealers who are here, and who, having to depend. on then; for a living cannot afford to palm off worth- less goods for what benefit may be obtained. The At Home The basement of the Methodist church was filled on Monday evening last by an appreciative audience, on -the occasion of the "at home" given by the young people of the Epworth League. The room was- tastefully decorated with curtains, flowers, pic- tures, etc., while the many handsome large easy -chairs • and sofas gave the place a very home -like appearance. The chair was agreeaably filled by the. president, Mr. D. C. Taylor, and the many selections of music, recitations and speeches given were all greatly appreciated. • • -,eaa The Journal of Commerce gives good advice when it advises everyone to take advantage of the good crops to pay 4; Get out of debt should be the motto for the year. Both busi- ness men and farmers should straight- en up rather than spread out. In prosperity it is well to prepare for adversity. Good crops do not come every year ; they are rather the exception than the rule. They should be utilized to make a general clearance of old debts. • LOCAL' NEWS GATHERED UP FOR READERS OF THE "SENTIIVEL." - Kincardine's taxation. this year is 22 mills on the dollar.

M..McLEOP, • Partnership Dissolved As will be seen by notice elsewhere, the partnership • • existing between Messrs. Berry & Days, druggists, has been dissolVed by mutual consent, and in future the business will be carried on by Mr. Days. This is a first-class business and while we are -very sorry to see 111r. Berry retire from active business in -the village, we congratu- late Harry in becoming full proprietor of one of the finest drug stores in the county. A Good Move .A t a recent meeting of the Toronto school board, a good move was made in passing a resolution favoring the adoption -of -a-public school-Ourrieuluire which should only include what is absolutely practical and useful in the way of education, leaving higher but less, immediately essential branches of education to be dealt with bYthe high schools, which will afford an opportun- ity for the'more, general teaching of hygiene in the common schools, and relieve the pupils from the murderous forcing system now in vogue. Dungannon Show The directors of the Ashfield and Wawanosh Agricultural Society are making a big push to boon: their fall show in Dungannon on Wednesday and Thursday, 14th and 15th of October. They are offering to the public a splendid prize list of attrac- tions, and the different speeding in the ring contests alone are worth the price of admission to all lovers of good horses. The managers of the show have displayed a good deal of enter- prise and should be liberally patron-, ized by the farming public. The Dungannon show will be held one week after our own local fair and we hope the citizens of Lucknow will turn out in large numbers and help to make the showa success. 'Caledonian Games Wednesday last was the date on which the Great Northern Caledonian gathering has been held in Lucknow for the past fourteen years. With the exception of one wet day these games have been a uniform success and have gained--a--world-(vide-reputation,--The- arena has been the scene of some of the keenest athletic contests ever witnessed before an assembled multi- tude. Owing to the absence of leading athletes the Society decided not to hold games this year, but have already in contemplation plans for bringing together, next year, the largest gather- ing that has yet been brought together at any games on this continent, par- ticulars of which will he given as time progresses. He Was Insane A young man named Albert White, of this village, was brought before Magistrates Lawrence and Bryan on Friday last, charged with being a lunatic and. dangerous to be at large. For some time past the young man's mind would become deranged for a few weeks at a time, and during these spells theypeor fellow labored under thedelusion that the Queen had given him the farm that is owned by Mr. Malcolm McDonald, just east of the village, and greatly ta the annoyance of Mr. McDonald and his family, he would visit the place and demand possession of the farm. Application has been made for his -1 to the London menn." History The Seaforth postmaster received a • letter from Bothwell, Scotland, the other day with this inscription : "Mr. Jos. Wilson, Farmer, Huron Track, McKillop's Post Office, Upper Canada, North Amet ica." •The writer of ,this and that that people and places change with the passing of time. It is now • 25 years since Upper Canada was done away with, and it is over 50 years since McKillop's Post Office was abol- ished, / In early times McKillop's Post Office was located on the Huron ,Road at Fowler's Hill, about two miles west of Seaforth J and the late Adolph Meyer • was 'postmaster, but there has been no Such post office for over half a century. Good Accommodation Through the timely exertion of the ever popular Mayor of Kincardine, Mr. James A. McPherson, the old London train has again been placed on the line and our railway accommo- dation is exceedingly -good. Passengers for London or other stations along the London, Huron' and Bruce can now leave at 2:20 in the afternoon, instead of having to .leave at 10:40 in, the morning s formerly and N. -rah three or -four hours at Wingham to get a train going south. The morning train from London also arrives here an hour or so earlier, but it would be a still greater advantage to our business men if the mail clerks -ere oilowod 10 run through to Kincardine, thus affording us a morning mail to the north.
