A meeting of the Liberal Conservat- ive Association was held in the Town Hall on Tuesday evening, Several matters of importance were dealt with. Da parents know that the Truancy Act imposes a fine of $20 oo anyone hiring a child between eight and 14 years of age, and provides that they must obtain the consent of the magis- trate before keeping their children at home? On accrunt of tie prevalence of diphtheria in the Winchelsea school, the Board of Health closed the school, also Elimville and Sunshine churches, for two weeks. We are glad to say the epidemic seems to have abated and there will be services in the churches next Sunday and the school will re• open next Monday. We made mention of Mrs. Jas. Load - man some three weeks ago as having gene on a isit to her children in Lon• don and Detroit. While in London she consulted Dr, ,More regarding one of her eyes, which has troubled her for a long time. The doctor recommended, her to a specialist. who, on examina- tion, advised her to have the eye tak- en out, as it was affecting the other one. The operation was performed on Friday of last week, and we are pleased to state that Mrs. Loadman is doing nicely after the delicate operation. A correspondent from Mildmay writes to the Clifford Express that a very modest and absent-minded young ,lady went to a store at that place for some flour. She gave the clerk what she thought was a neatly folded and ironed.pillow slip. The clerk uncon- sciously emptied one scoop of flour in andit went right through to the floor. Just then the, horrifying discovery was r.iade that what had been taken for a dainty little sacks. had two outlets,- and each. outlet was trimmed with embroid- ary- The clerk fainted and has been iu that condition ever since. Mr. T. C. Sweet, who has been at- tending the College of Pharmacy it Toronto for the past nine months,' has returned to town. He showed himself a worthy student, having secured first- class honors in all the subjects, as well as' the medal for dispensing. Also for the Degree of Analytic Chemist, Mr, Sweet stood first on the list with first class houors, The result of the exam. for Phm.B. has not yet come out, but we expect friend T.

This grand summer resort is fast becoming popular and it is expected that there will be a bigger rush there this coming season than any previous year. Mr. Srackman has erected several more cottages and otherwise improyed the grounds. Sunday, Rey. Hector, the Black Knight occupied the pulpit in the James sst. Methodist church both morning and evening and in the afternoon gave a temperance lecture in Drew's Hall, On Monday and Tuesday evenings he lectured in the church. On each oc- nasion large gatherings greeted him and although Piot an educated man bis discourses, characterized with much wit and humour, were listened to with great interest. If there was any part of the 24th. procession that deserved more special mention than another, we would give one preference to the band. The "boys" made up their minds to make a "hit " and they did it. Dressed in Her Majes- ty's red coats and foraging caps the "boys" presented more the appearance of a battalion band. The music was evidently appreciated as, two engage- ments have been offered them for July 1st; also one for July 12. Our citizens have good reasons to be proud of their band. We notice by the London Adyertiser that "Prof, Thos. Passmore figured in a long.handled shovel assault case, brcught by Mrs. Mary Nash of that city. The case was finally settled. Brer. Passmore, our former citizen, is sporting the handle "professor" con- spicuously, and is posing as a lecturer. At a recent lecture which he attempted to inflict upon the citizens of Hamilton 32. people turned out to hear him, and it is said that after the horrible failure of the lecturer, 30 of the number kick- ed themselves all the way home for being so easily and completely sold. Property Changed Rands. Mr. Chas. Snell, Jr., has disposed of his fine brick residence on Union street to Mr. Joseph Senior, for the handsome sum of $2,200. This property is in a desirable location and is one of the handsomest dwellings in town, Mr. Snell has since purchased the property on which the old skating rink stood from Mr. Davis, It contains four-fifths of an acre and is a splendid building site. Mr. Snell intends erecting n two or three fine dwellings thereon shortly. The consideration was $525. Personal Mention.

On Friday morning last when the proprietors of the Exeter Woollen Mills entered the factory their suspicions were aroused that everything was not all right. Upon examination it was found that thieves bad forced an ent- rance through the engine room and secured about $400 worth of manufaet• ured woollen goods and escaped with- out raising any alarm or leaving the slightest clue as to who , they were. From certain fresh wagon tracks it is supposed that the thieves came from the south and escaped in the same di- rection. Exeter Council Proceedings. Court of Revision on 28th May, 1894.

The monthly meeting of the South Huron Ministerial Association was held in C,�,ven Presbyterian Church Monday afternoon. After routine business Rev. W. H. Butt, of Centralia, read a a ital and Labor, h aer on C The P PP spoke of the great contrast be- tween the rich and poor of the old lessayest . world and the differences between lsm- ployers and employees in the pew world and elaimed the brefee11 between them was widening, the result of which would be a mighty revolution. The Condition of things was becoming seri. The single ] nd or better � ea ons.tax, still a, return of the old theocratic goy• ernment of anetctl rerael might in part remedy the evil, but the great panacea, was the application of the Golden Buie.

G. O. JOHNSTON, Excter1 A "Tempest.” There was a tempest in a teapot on Friday night in the Opera House dur• ing the concert given by the West Huron Teachers' Association. Dr. Rol- lins had delivered an address and when Rev. Win. Martin was called up- on, instead of following the example of previous speakers, Revds. Hunt and Tackson, and delivering an address, he contented himself with entering• a pro- test against the Committee for inviting the Doctor there to talk such "stuff. " Many condemn Mr. Martin for this course and say that if he wanted an apology from the teachers he should have gone to their association meeting• and asked it without disturbing what was otherwise a good concert. The teachers claim that they are not re• sponsible for the opinions of any speak. err, and besides could not see the appli- cation of the name of stuff to the ad- dress in question, As Mr. Martin did Lot hear only the closing remarks of the address, many aro of the opinion that it was an attempt to settle an old score. We are yery sorry Mr. Martin did not choose other time and place for the purpose he had in yiew,—Cons, Just received samples of American Binder Twine. Our milk cans are selling at sight.

A rich, but unbecoming story for a fair community, is told by one of our leading merchants, in whieh he relates how a farmer's''wife took advantage of bim on an egg deal. Some time ago a certain woman not two (hundred) miles from here entered the store with a basket containing eggs and hands it to a clerk, who counts them, brings her the basket and tells the amount it con- tains. "Oh!" says she, "I had a dozen more than that," and emphatically de- clared that if she was not allowed the number she made them she would quit the store The clerk was sure that his count was right but to satisfy the wo- man allowed her the extra dozen. Several weeks elapsed before the "lady" showed up again, but as before she brings in a big basket of "nen fruit" and consigns it to a clerk to be count- ed. The clerk stepped down stairs counted the eggs and brought back itold thebasket and to test her honestyo her that she had two dozen more than she really had. "Yes! "says she "that is right," and went on with her pur- chase. While else was thus engaged the merchant says to the clerk, "go down and see that you did'nt make a mistake in counting those eggs." The woman speaksupand says, "Ohl they were counted right." However,A ver, it did d not stop the ekirk fi.°etrr teal: ng a pre• tended count. In the meantime she became quite uneasy, but on his return she was inoreso, Her feelings can be better imagined than described. She could have crawled through a knot hole and drawn the hole in after her. The merchant gave her a well deserv- ed effusion on her debased act and she then departed to get consolation else- where. There are many that can take warning by this; "Honesty is the best poliefy," Job Lino. Were 5•e Each. Now 25c Each. E. J. SPACKMAC & CO Sam well's Block Word has been received. that Mr. Geo, wort who 'ho left here last Edworthy, Mardi died in Ellerton, . Dak. a few N days ago. Since moving there the family have experienced considerable trouble. Some time ago one of the young girls had her leg broken, later one of them narrowly escaped ch'own• ing, and now the head of the family has been removed from their midst, Deneeroue Preetese, We have repeatedly warned the juveniles of our town of discharging fire -arms inside the town limits, but the persistent youth continues and not till some fatality happens will they heed the warning. On Friday last Mr, John Hawkshaw narrowly escaped being shot in the head by a ball fired from a rifle,nsed by a boy sett cely 15 years of age. The ball passed ,within an inch of Mr. Hawkshaw's head, We hope this will be a warning and put a stop to this dangerous practise, To Dress well It is not necessary that you should haye your Clothes made fr o> n the very best materia.,. neither need you have. the very latest style,. but to look well your clothes must fit.
