Rev. Searle, a returned missionary
from Chinn, preached an eloquent and
interesting missionary sermon in Cay.
en Presbyterian church on Sunday.
His description of the habits and cus-
toms of the Chinese was particularly
pleasing.

Give a small boy or a fool a stone
and he cannot resist the temptation
to toss it at something living or break-
able. On Monday night, at an hour
too late for the boy, the other fellow
spent a few moments in breaking sev-
eral panes of glass in Mr. Johns' ma-
chinery rooms on Main Street. You
can't blame him; he knew no better.
The Pumpkin Pie Social given by
the Epworth League in the Main-st.
church, on Monday evening, was a
success. Besides a good feast of pie
those who attended were treated to
an excellent address by Rev. Cooper,
of Elimville, on his trip to the St.
Louis Fair, and to a choice musical
and literary program. Rev. Wren oc-
capied the chair in an acceptable man-
ner.
Mr. John Taylor, Exeter North, bas
bad a little more than his share of mis-
fortune lately. On Friday last while
driving on the Lake Road near Smith's
bridge his team of horses ran away,
throwing him out of the wagon. The
heavy rig passed over his body inflict-
ing severe internal injuries. It is
thought that some of the bones J are
broken. He is now in a very doubtful
condition and is suffering great pain.
On Friday afternoon last Mr. Geo.
Atkinson, of town, met with a severe
and painful accident while assisting
to build a house in McGillivray. From
some cause one or more bricks fell
from the second storey scaffold and.
one of them struck him on the head,
inflicting a nasty cut. He was stun-
ned by the blow but soon recovered.
He was foreed to quit work for a few
days, but the wound is improving
nicely.
Mrs. S. M. Sanders did not reach
Winnipeg as she expected last week.
On her arrival at Toronto the officials
of the Farmers' Co-operative Machine
Co., advised her that they were daily
receiving word as to Mr. Sanders' con-
dition (he is ill of fever in Winnipeg)
and they were convinced that he was
well cared for in the hospital. Mrs.
Sanders thereupon returned to town.
According to latest reports the patient
is doing well, and will be able to leave
the hospital in about ten days.
The gate receipts at the Western

The marriage took place in Mitchell
on Wednesday of Miss Bella' Williams,
of that town and Mr. Dan. McLeod, of
Stratford. Dr. D. A. and Mrs. Ander-
son and their guests, Mr. and Mrs.
Fisher, were present at the ceremony.
That. week a petition was circulated
among the business men of the town,
with the purpose of requesting the
Council to appoint a Night Watch.
The immediate cause was a recent at -
temp to rob the till of one of the stores.
The cash had been removed by the
bookkeeper and nothing was taken.

Elements of Character.
Writing on Character building in
the October DELINEATOR, Mrs. Theo-
dore W. Birney places above all others
the following elements of character,
"which go far towards enabling their
possessor to achieve a lasting and
legitimate success in life"—honesty,
decision, punctuality and perseverance.
Elsewhere she says: "The yeryfound-
ation of character is sincerity—hon-
esty and truthfulness are but other
names for the same thing—and if par-
ents continually set their children an
example of insincerity, of what avail
are sermons and maxims from their,
lips? In every way children fashion
their conduct after that of the adults
about them. Fortunate are the child-
ren whose training and environment
are such as to establish habits of all
the virtues, who are trained in habits
of reverence, honesty, courtesy, etc.
Habit is indeed 'ten natures,' and will
stand by one under stress ,and strain
that would weaken the average moral
fibre; hence, it behooves us each day
to see that uninterrupted habit has an
opportunity to perform its marvellous
work in the moral nature and in the
wonderful brain cells which register
with such unerring accuracy all that
is said and done.
Rev. Dr. Hannon, who has been on
an extended trip through the Canadi-
an Northwest during the past two
months, returned on Monday. The
trip seems to have agreed with the rev-
erend gentleman, as he has every ap-
pearance of robust and vigorous health.
We are pleased to see him back again.
His genial disposition bas endeared
him to the people of Exeter, and when
absent he is greatly missed, not only
in the pulpit but on the street and ' in
the business places and homes.
Mr. and Mrs. Henry Bennett. of To-
ronto, have issued announcements of
the marriage of their daughter, Miss
Ethel May, to Mr. John A. Wylie, on
September 7tb. Mrs. Wylie is a sister
of Mrs. J. A. Stewart and will be her
guest for a few weeks prior to leaving
for her future home in Minot, N. Da-
kota. Mrs. Wylie, who visited here
on a previous occasion was a general
favorite among those who made her
acquaintance and the heartiest con-
gratulations for her future prosperity
will be their wish.
Eddie, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Geo.
Anderson, had the misfortune last
week to be bitten below the ankle by
a pig. It took place in the absence of
his parents and was not attended to
for some days after it occurred. In
the meantime the ankle and foot be-
came swollen to an alarming extent,
and on a doctor being called in be
found the injury so severe that he
feared that lock-jaw or blood poison-
ing would result. Such was not the
case, however, the swelling has been
reduced and the lad is now able to
move about with care.
Rev. Wren, of Hensall, who has had
charge of Rev. Dr. Hannon's duties
in the James Street Church for the
past few weeks, preached his final on
Sunday evening last the Dr. being
again in charge. During his stay here
he has filled the duties that devolved
upon him in a most acceptable man-
ner. His discourses were of a high
order, showing scholarly attainment
deep thought and good judgment
while his descriptive powers, couple
with a true Christian spirit, had
telling effect for good influences. on hi
hearers. Being a young man the bes
wishes of the congregation will' be hi

Newspaper Critics.
. Newspaper men frequently have
their attention called to the typograph-
ical errors which sometime get into
their publications. If newspaper men
knew their business these errors would
never happen; at least the people who
discover these errors tell you that
much. Now, if in the first place the
editor gets the correct information
and if he writes it properly, and if the
girls, compositors, set it up as he
should, and if the galley boy knows
enough to make a decent proof, and
the copy holder is sober,audif the proof
reader marks the corrections and if the
printer corrects them, and the ''make,-
up" gets the type in the right place,
and the pressman prints the papers as
he should, and if the press doesn't
smash a few letters; why, it can be
easily seen how unnecessary are these
typegraphical errors. It certainly is
a very easy matter to run a newspap-
er, and to get it absolutely correct.
At the same time these all -wise and
all accurate people who are so ready
to point out the errors and oversights
of newspaper men, in nine cases out
of ten, are those who when they want
an item published write on both sides
of measly little scraps of paper; spell
a man's name two or three different
ways; forget to number their pages;
leave out the dates and forget to sign
what they have written, leaving it to
the editcr or printer to supply all the
lacking details.
The Exeter Show.
We again remind our readers of the
EXETER SHow, to be held under the
auspices of the South Huron and
Stephen and Osborne Societies, on
Monday and Tuesday next, on the
splendid grounds of the latter society.
This show promises to be among the

there will be instruction and amuse-
ment for both old and young. All.
entries for the indoor department
must be made by twelve o'clock on
Monday and for the outdoor depart-
ment not Yater than ti elve o'clock on
Tuesday. Tuesday, of course, will be
the big day when the crowd will be
there. The Exhibition balls will also
be open.Monday night for the conven-
ience of those in towu who may not
he able to attend in the day -time.
There is always a large crowd at Exe-
ter show and this year it is hoped the
attendance will be larger than ever be-
fore.
Death of Mrs. Moore.
The many friends of Mrs. James
Moore, Exeter North, will learn with
deep regret of her death which took
place at her home on Tuesday evening
last, at the age of 68 years, 7 months
and 18 days. Mrs. Moore was an ami-
able old lady, kind hearted and true
and was much respected by all who
had the pleasure of her_ acquaintance.
She was a member of the Trivitt Me
morial.church and was athorough and
consistent Christian. A native of Eng-
land, the deceased and her husband
came to Canada about 20 years ago
and settled at the North end of the
village where she has since resided.
Mrs. Moore had enjoyed splendid
health until about three months ago
when it was discovered she was afflict-
ed with internal cancer. She was ad-
vised to consult a specialist and at once
went to St. Joseph's hospital, London,
where she was operated on for the re-
moval of the trouble. This, hot4eyer,
only furnished temporary relief a.nl
returning to her home here she took
her bed and gradually waning in
strength she passed peacefully away.
Mrs. Moore's maiden name was Eliza-
beth Nortbeott, and (reside a sorrow-
ing husband, who will miss her most,
she leaves to mourn her demise sever-
al brothers and one daughter, Mrs.
Bartlett, of Arkone The funeral takes
place from her late residence to -day
(Thursday) for the EXeter cemetery,
