Speaking for this etore, which leads in selling, we may say that stocks are usually large and unusu- ally fine, and, bought at prices more favorable thrill often comes to the shrewdest closest buyers. We would say mere, but accept this hint that in any buying you may think of, big or littleethe possibilities of complete, quick service, of getting just the kind of goods you want. it little better, and at prices a little lower than you had thought of having to pay, are sure to be had here t eina will briag you here again.

Permit me through your columns to make the following offer to the property owners in and around Wingliatn. Geeereenex-As I expect to be absent in the spring when the flax season opens and as I feel the neceasity for such a business being eatehlished at 'once, I make the following offer : If a Joint Stook Company be formed having a subscribed capital of 47.000, I will furnish a barn 50x100 feet, a suitable building for a mill, large scales and a suffioient ground as paid up stock, at a fair valuation and for this stock I will not ask any dividend unlese the business pays six per cent. on paid up capital. I will also give the Company the use of 8 acres of land convenient to, the mill to spread flax on free of charge and subscribe 0,500 on the same conditions as other stook holders. This offer ia open for acceptance until the first of January 1897. Geo. McKee SEE. COMMUNICATION. To the Editor of the Toms. DVAR Sin : Kindly allow me. a reply te Mr. McKenzie's letter of last week. When I was allowed to engage the En- gineer to survey and lay .out the sidewalks at the north end of Josephine street with- out any interference from Mr. McKenzie, the property owners had to paer only 1115 for laying out 106 rods oft sideWalk. Through the meddlesome 'interference of MerealeKenzie in superseding the authority of the Public Works Committee and en. gaging the Engineer without making a bargain with him as to the costs, the pro- pene( owuers at the south end of the street had to rev 018 for 63 rods of sidewalk I can readily understand why Mr. Bolton approvee of, and commends Mr. alleXenzie's eet ion, and why Mr. McKenzie falls back ie. Bolt= to help nim out. I thank Mr. McKenzie for that letter of Mr. Bol- ton's ; it will deceive no body and provee my case in a nutshell. I am afraid Mr. Mellesswe's sharp axe has cut his ingers. Now as to the tender from the Guelph 'Pavement Company. If the company awere nee aware of the change in the sped- ficatione, it was not the fault of the Com- mittee. They sent man. up here, as be 'said, tolook over the ground and, pat in a tender. When he was told of the intention of the Conanaittee to make the change and • which he approved of, he decided not to put in a tender until he would god/emerald lay theperticulaes before the overmany. Whethev he did tkis or not I cannot say, but the tender came in as agreed. It was at the rate of fourteen cents per loot and I fear one„and I believe every member of the Coininitsee, believed the company tendered ,fully aware of the change. We had no reason to think otherwise. This gentle- man awd Mr, Graham were here together ad tveneaway together and both got the sante information and had the same chance, although the specifications asked for security this company both in this tender And the ene following dechnedlte give any. -Rev. and Mrs. Perkie entertained the members of the Presbyterian choir on Mon- day evening. i -W.

I am sure I would be far from aooesing Mr. McKenzie of speeding money ignorantly or oarelessly.

Nor was it througleignoranee nor carelessness he rendered au account of the expenditure of the money belonging to the Town of Wingharn, to the Deputy - Reeve o6 Turnberry.
