SUITINGS
vie-.-nr-a'r,.c ri J
Say, we got in some swell
Spring Suitings last week.
They are right up to the mo -
meat.
Oeats are two inches Ionger than
last year, and the lapels are so much
broader and deeper that you can't help
but notice them.
The vests are cut with five buttons.
The pants are just a little pegtoppy.
They are beauties alright for $15,
$18 and $20, and no matter where you
go you can't find anything that will
fit as nicely as they do.

been made, placing him seventh on
the list, it was discovered that he bad
obtained 100 marks more than he had
received credit for. These additional
100 marks place him 30 marks ahead
of his highest competitor, giving him
first place in his class; and consequent-
ly he has been awarded the $100.00
scholarship, with 30 marks to spare,
whereas his rival whom be displaces
had only one mark to spare.

Forecasts for Julie.
A regular storm period is central on
July 5th. Any one can, of course,
"predict warm weather for July," so
we predict that an excessively warm
wave will pass over this country gener-
ally, and over other countries as well,
during the first ten days of this month.
Mind you, gentle critic, it will pass
over; it will not flop down like a "lid"
and remain over all the country the
whole of the ten days. Great summer
heat,in every probability,will set in to
the west the first days of the month.
This conditon will increase in area and
intensity as it moves eastward, reach-
ing a crisis from the 4th to the 7th.
The astronomic conditions, on and
touching Wednesday the 4th to Sun-
day the Sth, indicate disturbances of
more than ordinary violence. Terrific
electrical disturbances, with heavy,
tornadic storms over central to north-
westerly regions, will be perfectly nat-
ural. Normal, heavy rain, hail and
thunder storms should occur from the
4th to the 7th and he followed by al-
most unseasonable change to cooler.
This is a time when local"cloud bursts
and water spouts"are to be apprehend-
ed, even though unabated heat and
drought prevail over near -by sections.
By, this time, also, the flood waters
from June precipitation will be work-
ing into central to southern rivers.
Farewell Sermon.
The Rev. R. J. M. Perkins, M. A.,
who some weeks ago tendered his res-
ignation as rector of the Trivitt Mem-
orial church to accept a call from Ing-
ersoll, after an incumbency of about
three years in Exeter, preached his
farewell sermon on Sunday evening
last. The church was comfortably
filled, many being present from the
other congregations. The• reverend
gentleman took for his text St. John
19:18, from which he preached an ex-
cellent an interesting discourse, mak-
ing no personal reference whatever to
his leaving the parish. It is safe, how-
ever, to say that few clergymen have
left here whose departure will be more
regretted. Mr. Perkins stands high in
the esteem of the members of his own
church and not less high in the esteem
of the people of every other denomi-
nation. His religion is of a deeply
spiritual sort, free from cant and big-
otry,and in his dealings with men he is
straightforward and courageous. Dur-
ing his stay here be has labored earn-
estly, faithfully and with narked in-
telligence, and .the influence of his
guiding hand has been felt in ail de-
,partnrents of the church work alike.
Among the young people as well as
the older members of his flock, and in
the spiritual as well as the financial
life of the congregation was the result
of the energy felt. The town of Ing-
ersoll will find in Mr. Perkins a thoeo-
ugh gentlemen, a man of tnuch force
of character, a man of superior scllol-
arly abilities and -a worthy citizen.
