MELISSA!
WHAT IS IT ?
Melissa proofed coats are lust what
the. inventor and manufaaturer_claian
them to be, neither more nor less.
They are both rainproof, porous and
odorless, therefore perfectly healthful
and comfcirtable. They are common
sense garments and should be treated
in a common sense manner. Although
rainproof, they are not waterproof in
the sense that a water cushion or
bottle made of rubber is waterproof.
Being porus, water can be. forced
through thena, either by heavypressure
or by squeezing with, the fingers. If
they were absolutely waterproof, they
would be abtolutely air tight and
therefore no better than rubber. Here-
in lies ate peculiar value ofthe 'invention,
Sensible people do not buy waterproof
garments for the purpose of forcing
water through them or of carrying
water in them, neither do they sit
under a water spout, nor sit in a pool
for pleasure.. They buy rainproof
garments for the purpose of protecting
themselves from the weather, and a
Melissa coat will effectually protect
the wearer for many hours in a heavy
rain .or snow storm. Melissa has a
peculiar water repellent property,
which prevents water wnen falling in
the form of rain or snow on a garnient
mg e co , an the
true way to test the uiility of a Melissa
garment is hywertring it in a heavy
rainstorm. :The result will be found
eminently ' ',satisfactory. Continued
exposure to the weather will not im-
pair in the slightest degree the rain
proof quality of Melissa. It is fixed
and permanent. These garments,
thoroughly well made from fine ina-i
terials, for sale by

_Monday and Tuesday last- added'
another to the long list of splendid
exhibitions under the auspices of this •
Society. In fact it surpassed any-
thing of ,the kind ever held in the
county. The weather too, was all
that could be desired, and on Tues-
day the crowds began pouring into
the village from all' directions, so
that by two o'clock fully five thousand
people were on•the grounds. In every
department the exhibit was -far-ahead
of previous years, and taken all in all
we doubt very much if there is a local
show in the Dominion that could sur-
pass the magnificent display of valu-
able animals, and rich ptoducts of the
fertile fields of the counties of Huron
and Bruce on this occasion,
THE HALL.
The large hall was soul ething to
please the eye and excite the admira-
tion of every visitor, and none went
away dissappointed in their expecta-
tions. As usual, the building was
opened to the public on Monday even-
ing,. and a large erowd of villagers and
others from the surrounding country
were present. The whole place was
brilliantly illumin.ated,' which afforded
the visitors a fine opportunity to in-
spect the different articles on exhibi-
tion, while the splendid playing of the
Lucknow brass band combined to
make a pleasant evening, On entering
the* hall the first display to meet
the eye of the spectator was the neatly
arranged exhibit of grains, vegetables,
etc.,:grown in the Northwest, and
shown by Mr. D. L. Cavell, coloniza-
tion agent of the Canadian Pacific
Railway. The list included all the.'
different kinds of grain, grasses, etc.,
grown in that part of our Dominion,
and was certainly a credit to the
Prairie Province. The samples of the
wheat were exceptionally fine, and the
courteous and gentlemanly agent lost
no opportunity of bringing the exhibit
prominently before the people. It was
away ahead of the exhibit of last year.
In the fruit class there was a mag-
nificent display, including all the lead-
ing verieties of apples, pears, peaches,
plums, grapes, etc., while the roots
and vegetables were'the finest ever
exhibited in Lneknow. •
Mr. John. Jewitt, of Lucknow, had
on exhibition a very fine collection of
polished horns,,that were greatly ad-
mired. His collection of coins and the
different kinds .of fanc5--woods were
also interestin and reflected • much
on t le owner.
The, whole north end of the hall
Was occupied by the beautiful display.
of flowers and the handsome cases of
stuffed birds belonging to Mr. Wm.
Anderson and Master ,Harry Mc -
Charles. In flowers, ^Dr. Tennant
carried Off the red ticket- for the lar-
gest. and best collection, and M r. Thos.
Matthie second. In house plants 111r.
G. E. Kerr took the first, and Thos
Matthie second. In cut flowers Mrs.
Alex. Patterson, of Huron, carried off
all the prizes •for her beautiful collee-
tions., The whole display • was an at-
tra,ctive feature of the show.
Mr. Thos. L. Treleaven, as usual,
was on hand with a very fine exhibit
of handsomely finished photographs,
and the many red tickets that adorned
the cases fittingly ,testifiesi to the ex-
cellency of the work.
The ladies department was well
represented; and contained all the
latest novelties in fancy work, from
the razy patch work quilt to• the
Smallest articles in laces and embroid-
ery. The exhibit occupied the greater
portion of The east side of liae large
hall, 'while the heavier and more sub-
stantial articles were suspended from
ines .d,long each side of tlie building. In
cre

Three of the'dtoves on exhibition wer
manufactured by the Grundy Broe. o
The show in implements was vet
e light compared with 'former years, thyte
f largest exhibitors being Messrs. Wra,
Kincardine, and they are withou
doubt a credit to the establishment
good and be was highly-complimente
for his enterprise.
Messrs. Wm. Allin and Thos. Youn
each occupiad a large space in th
centre of the building with their large
and handsome display of organs and
sewing machines, and throughout the
show large crowds of spectators were
constantly around their stands.
J. Grenache had on exhibition .a
nice display of boots and shoes, and
Adam Thompson had two exception-
ally fine cases of hammered and
itnished—lackse- shoese-that-fully- sus-
tained his reputation as a mechanic.
Mr. Stewart' had a couple of.fine
pannelled doors and matched flooring
that were hard' to heat, . while .the
cutter' and carriage woad -work bY
Hildred Bros. was also good.
Two of the famous Edison Phono-
graphs were at the show and their
owners reaped a good harvest.
There were many other articles on
exhibition that are worthy of notice,
'but space will not permit us referring
to them separately.
ON THE, GROUNDS.
•
In •
the imported • heavy draught
class. of horses there was alight entry,
but in -all the other classes the num-
ber of fine animals shownwas equal
to • any former exhibition. In the
imported class„ Thos. Todd, of • St.
Helens, had -a couplekof goad animalsi
while in the heavy draught teams Mr.
John•Jamieson, of Ashfield, took the
first prize, and Mr. J. R.. McDonald,
of Huron, second prize: In agricul-.
tural houses Jos.- Griffin, of Ashfield,
and John Webb. of St. Helens, were
the successful winners of the red and
blue tickets for the best span in harn-
ess and waggon. In the ' road and
carriage class the entry was the largest
in thehistoryof the show, and all the
-animals entered were of a siaperior
quality. •The. handsomely matched.
span of beautiful chestnuts owned by
Dr. Whitely, of Goderich, captured
the first prize in their class, and the
sorrel team .of three year old colts t
owned by Mr. T. E Cain, of Lucknow,
got •second. Mr. A. McGrory, . of r
Lucknow, also carried off the first 0
prize in the one year 'old class and the 1
first for spring foal, with his two'' fl
Royal Abdallah colts. • w
• CATTLE.
. s
° There was an exceptionally large fi
exhibit of cattle in the different ciasSett. L
In Durham's as usual, E. Gaunt &
Sons, of St. Helens, swept all before a
them. In.,grade they also captured a 0.
number of prizes, as did P. Srneltzer, w
of Belfast, James Ctowston,..ef., Lang- T
t Allin and Thos. Young, both of this
village.
DING IN. TRF' RING,
d This was the most exciting and in-
teresting event of the great show,,and
g during the differeat contests drew to
e the ring thousands of spectators, all -
anxious to get a good view of tbe
flyers as they trotted round the
course. The programme contained
three trotting races, for which the
society gave $100 in prizes. All the
• races were mile heats, best two int
three. The first on the list was the
three year old class, open to all horses
in the counties of •Huron and
--and for-whictrthere were three entries.
It was a walk over for J. S. Jerome's
brown n:are of Wingham,• who took
both the heats with ease, S. S'uber,
Wingharn, 2nd... and Wm: 1100C1,
Lucknow, third. •
The local trot, open to all horses in
the four townships and the village also
hact three en‘tries but from the start
the race was practically between the
Royal Revenge mare owned by J.
Grenache, of Lucknow, and the Pat-
chen mare belonging to P. Corrigan,.
of Holyrood. It was a good race and
for the first half 'it was difficult to tell
who should take the heat, but the
little mare finally settled •to her work
and came to the home_stretch-an-•easy-:
winner. The second heat was well
contested, but the Lucknow• mare was
too fast for her opponent, winning the
heat and the race by a good lead.

Free for all. This was the most
exciting contest of the list, and
brought together the best. horses from
Goderich, Wingham and Lucknow.
There were five in the field and as
they passed .round the course for a.
'warmup' -there was agood deal of spec- /
Illation as to the' probable winner..
After four or 'five attempts they
finally got away with Dr. Whitely's

f the others, with the stallion.a good
ead of the mare. This be held to the
nish and as he came down to the .
ire an easy winner, was loudly '
heered, Arcada Wilkes third. The
