With the New Year an important

On Wednesday last Dr. Wichart, of
London and Dr. Browing, of Exeter,
performed a very successful but pain-
ful operation by remoyiug two cancers
from the person of Mrs. Duncan Mc-
Gregor, of Highgate, who is now with
her daughter, Mrs. Geo. Manson. The
patient is doing well considering the
trying circumstances. Mr. McGregor
is also his daughter's guest.
Mr. G. W. Holman has gone into the

appsinted general agent for the Feder-

ment of Jatnes Weekes, marble cutter,
to the office of Chief of the Fire Brigade
at the last meeting of 1894 council
board, We do not know of a better
persoh to fill the vacancy. Mr, Treble's
resignation was accepted only on ac
count of being asked by his many
friends to allow his name to go before
the ratepayers as councillor for 1895.
He has been a very proficient chief
and we are safe in saying that Mr,
VVeekes will follow in his predecessors
footsteps, "Jim' is one of the most
popular young men in town.

Hood's Sarsaparilla Calendar for 1895
is out and may be obtained at the drug
stores. It is one of the most beautiful
that the firm has ever issued and the
edition was the largest.ever printed by
any oneconceriebeing Over ten millions
of copies. There are two faces on the
calendar, both of children, representing
"Summer" and "Winter." The design
was by one of the most gifted artists in
the country, and the coloring is most
exquisite. 'The calendar is not only
beautiful, but it is also useful, as it
presents all the desired information
concerning astronomical events during
the year, If your druggist does not
have Hood's Sarsaparilla Calendar it
may be obtained by sending six cents
in stamps to C. 1. Hood & Co., Lowell,

An interesting arbitration case was
beard before Judge Toms Friday, be
ing the claim of Dr. Shaw, of Clinton,
for the attendance of the late Joseph
Whitehead, of that town. The time of
the services was two months and
twelve days, and the amount claimed
$727, Dr. Shaw contending that he
practically gave up his whole time
and services to the patient. The exe-
cutors of the estate are W. Coats,Law-
yer Scott and Mrs. Ross, a daugter of
deceased. They resisted the claire,
and by consent was referred to Judge
Tom as sole and final arbiter. All the
doctors of Goderieh and Clinton gave
evidence as to their charges in similar
cases. and the respective parties were
represented aS follows: E. L Dickson
for Dr. Shaw, P. Holt for Mrs. Ross, and
J. T. Garrow for Mr. Coats. Judge-
