Popular goods must be made to meet
the requirements and demands of the
times. We can't standstill; we must
either move forward or backward.
Our goods contain distinct features
that have artistic merit, and claim the
attention a every customer.
One censtant aim is to produce gar-
nents that have a character -a per-
sonality of their own, to leave the old
beaten track, and rise above the con-
ventional and common place.

A Word to Farmers.
Now that farmers have commenced
threshing this season's crop it would
be well for them to recognize the fact
of the necessity of cleaning it thor-
oughly before offering it for sale on
the market. This is a matter demand-
ing the minutest care and attention
on the part -of the farmers who wish
to realize the highest market price for
their grain. • Too often the farmer
hurriedly runs his grain through the
mill, bags it up, and carts it to the
market without even the faintest in-
spection and expects the highest mar-
ket price. This seems ridiculous, and
to overcome the difficulty local buyers
have been warned by the larger buyers
against purchasing poorly cleaned
grain, and if so, at a much reduced
price. Farmers will do well to hear
the fact in mind and govern them-
selves accordingly.
An Exeter Boy to the Front•
We are in receipt of the first annual
report of the Caledonia Hospital, of
Caledonia, Minn. On turning over its
pages we notice the striking portrait
of a former Exeter boy in the person
of Dr. W.E. Browning, and son cfour
esteemed townsmen Dr. J. W. Brown-
ing, who is one of the two founders
and surgeon in charge of the hospital.
During the Dr's medical career in Cal-
edonia marked success has attended
his every operation, which fact doubt-
less has made his abilities recognized
and placed him in the position he now
holds. The report is handsomely got-
ten ap, contains 28 pages and is well
illustrated. Portraits of the founders,
the superintendent, the hospital, a
number of the rooms contained there-
in, the principal buildings of the town,
a report of the cases treated, which is
a remarkable showing, and various
other information graces the pages of
the little booklet. Thus another 'of
Exeter's sons conies to the front in
recognized ability, and we wish him.
forthe future that measure of success
thatpast. v<has croned his efforts in - the
Bowline_etetes. ;
The Clinton"kiowlers expected here
