very heartily invited to attend.
Exercise and Diet.
In contrast to the great number off
extravagant and ridiculous regimens
designed nowadays to promote bodily
symmetry, the wholesome advice of
Dr. Grace Peckanan Murray in the
September Delineator is refreshing. In
regard to the extremes of weight, the
writer goes to the heart of the matter
and prescribes the diets for the stout
and thin, including for the latter the
natural direction to eat much, especi-
ally milk and eggs—half a dozen eggs
a day if possible—also butter., cream,
sweets, potatoes, root vegetables, etc.
For the stout the diet should he the re-
verse of the above, with the addition
of some well -directed exercises, which
are illustrated in the article. Physic-
al perfection is not so much a matter
of weight as of the distribution of flesh
and local development massage as
•well as exercise is recommended; but
Dr. Murray insists that the most impor-
tant
mport;wt factor in any system of reduction
or developmentis persistency, for
without it no special exercise can be of
any benefit.

Board generally manages to keep a
very efficient staff of teachers. The
work of the last year fully bears out
that statement. Not only in the low-
er grades but in the higher work as
well the results have been very satis-
factory. We think the staff for the
cowing year will be no exception to
the rule.
Quoits.
The game of quoits is becoming a
favorite pastime with several of our
citizens, a few of whom are becoming
adepts at the sport. To toss a six or
eight pound quoit a distance of eigh-
teen yards and put out the light re-
quires on the part of the players, con-
siderable muscular energy and train-
ing, good sight, good judgment of dis-
tance, and a steady nerve. A few of
the players have the requisites and
now all they need is the practice.
Games have been arranged with the
Seaforth players, the first to take
place this Wednesday on Exeter
ground and the second at Seaforth on
Labor Day.
Was a Happy Event.
"A very pretty event took place at
the home of the bride's sister, Mrs. Ed.
Taylor. 51 Adelaide street, on Tuesday,
being the marriage of Miss Carrie Da-
vis, of Exeter, and Mr.Jarvis Dickson,
of this city, the officiating clergyman
being Rev. D. E. Martin, of Hamilton
Road Methodist church. The bride was
prettily gowned in white silk and car-
ried a bouquet of pink carnations, and
was given away by her brother, Mr.
Abe Davis, of London. The bridesmaid
Miss Nettie Johnson, of St. Thomas,
looked charming in a gown of white'
organdy. Mr. Frank Case, of Exeter,
assisted the groom, and little Miss Ter-
ry, niece of the bride, made a pretty
ring bearer. Miss Myrtle Terry, of
Lyle street, played the wedding march.
After a sumptuous repast the happy
couple left on the 7.40 train for Wind-
sor and other points west. Owing to
illness at the bride's home, the wed-
ding took place in London."—London

Address and Presentation.
On Monday evening last the mem-
bers of the Junior Bible class, of the
James street Methodist Sunday school
assembled at the home of their teach-
er, Mrs. E. Elliot, who is about to
leave for Toronto. A very pleasant
evening was spent in music and games.
The class presented to Mrs. Elliot a
handsome Bible and Hymn book with
the following address:
Dear Mrs. Elliot.—It is with feelings
of the greatest regret that we have
learned ofyouur intended departure,
which will leave a gap in the ranks
difficult to fill. Always striving toad-
vance the kingdom of God you have
shed an influence about you, the re-
sult of which can be evident only at
the last day when each shall receive
his due reward. By your unceasing
efforts in the interests of moral reform
you have endeared yourself to the
hearts of your fellow workers and
your memory will be cherished as of
one whose sole aim is the triumph of
righteousness. For a long time past
we have been aided by your advice
and instruction and have been helped
in life by your Christian precept and
example. Sabbath after Sabbath we
have met together to study the word
of God under your guidance, when
your fervent spirit has inspired us to
meet the trials and difficulties of an-
other week, trusting in the Lord for
strength. We feel that no tribute we
can pay can fittingly express the high
esteem in which we hold you and that
we can give no mete expression to our
feelings of gratitude towards you.
However, as a slight token of our ap-
preciation of your kindness to us, we
beg yeti to accept this Bible and Hymn
book, which are tendered with deep-
est love. We trust that God will be
with you in your new home and that
your future life may be as bright and
fruitful as your past has been.

A Prosperous industry.
In noting the various industries of
our town from time to time we feel
that we would be lax in our duties if
we were to overlook the enterprise of
one of our best known and oldest bus-
iness men. We refer to Mr. Ambrose
Cottle. Take a walk down Ann Street
and when you arrive at the factory
you cannot help noticing the improve-
ment in the premises and the large
addition on the east side. This le the
new cider mill. Being built for the
purpose it has been very conviently
,arranged, is perfectly adapted for the
business and has been fitted with new
and improved machinery making it
unsurpassed by any similar concern in
Western Ontario. The apples to
be made into cider are shaken from the
bags into a recepta.cle,then passing in-
to the endless carriers they are hur-
ried on to the grinder in the upper
part of the building. This little ma-
chine is a marvel of completeness, and
as the apples leave the elevator they
pass out of sight to be ground to a
jelly by this little ingenious device
particularly adapted for that work.
Ground into a pulp the remains drop
into an upright box and then as re-
quired to the pressing quarters below.
The press in itself is one of remarkable
power, being built on the latest im-
proved plan. The work of pressing is
reduced to a nicety and the very best
results obtained. All is operated by
steam—elevating, grinding, pressing,
etc., thus requiring very little human
aid and minimising the process of cid-
er making, with the results far great-
er and the article far superior to that
of the old process. In connection Mr.
Cottle has a complete apple butter and
jelly apparatus from which be turns
out nothing but the very best and
choicest articles. The new plant is
certainly worthy of inspection, and
the . proprietor is to be commended
for his enterprise.
Bowling Notes.
On Saturday afternoon the first
game of bowls with out-of-town rinks
took place on the Exeter green.
Two rinks of Clinton players drove
down in the afternoon and engaged
in friendly contests with the Exeter
players. Considerable interest was
felt by the townspeople in the matches
and quite a large number turned out
to see the sport. They were not dis-
appointed, as all the rinks were well
contested and at no time were things
easy for any one side, the players be-
ing about equal in merit. A favorite
and often telling play with one or two
of the Clinton players was the running
shot. On more than one occasion a
running shot succeeded in converting
a possible Exeter score to one for
Clinton. Two games were won by the
visitors and two by the home rinks,
while the total score for the afternoon
was 35-31 in favor of Clinton, and for
the evening 25-23 in favor of Exeter,.
leaving Clinton 2 shots to the good on
the day's play. The following is the
result in games:
