SITINGS

Say, we got in some swell
Spring Suitings last week.
They are right up to the mo-
ment.
Chats are two inches longer than
last year, and the lapels are so much
broader and deeperthat you can't help
but notice them.
The vests are cut with five buttons,
The pants ;ere 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
t as nicely as they do.

Here is something that is worth
many dollars to every farmer to know:
Sprinkle lime in your stock tank and
not a particle of scum will form on the
water. When the lime loses its
strength scorn will begin to form,
which may be twice during the season,
wash out the tankand repeat the dose.
It is cheap, not only harmless, but
wholesome, keeps the water sweet and
saves the live stock..

The youngpeople of the Main street

very popular in town,
Mr. P. G, Wood, who left for Mani-
toba this spring, writing from Gains-
boro, Sask., statues that he shipped his
first carload of cattle and bogs to
Winnipeg on June 30, the shipment
proving successful. It will thus he
seen that he is following in his father's
footsteps. He intends keeping at the,
business and if he succeeds as well as
his parent he will have nothing to re-
gret. Here's wishing him every suc-
cess.
Rev. Fear, who commenced his pas-
torate of the Main street Methodist
church here on Sunday, arrived with
his family last week. The church was
well filled both morning and evening
of Sunday and general satisfaction is
expressed by the congregation on the
corning to the church of Mr. Fear who
has already won his way into the
hearts of all who met or heard him.
His opening talk and sermonette in the
morning and his discourse in the even-
ing were listened to most attentively.
They seemed to indicate that the
church would prosper and good would
be done during the next year.
We are constrained to believe that
many readers of the Advocate are in-
clined to regard the matrimonial pro-
position which was set forth in these
columns last week as a fake concocted
in this sanctum with a view to furnish-
ing copy for the Advocate printers.
We respectfully beg to refute any such
imputation as far as we are concerned
at least. It is gratifying to know that
at least some have had the courage to
write to this office and secure the in-
formation necessary to communicate
with the gentleman of the neighboring
town, who seeks.a helpmate. We feel
in a sense duty bound to our advertiser
to give his proposition the widest pub-
licity, hence attention is once more
drawn to the matter, For the benefit
of those readers who may be in terested
and who may have overlooked the
paragraph we again insert the item
this week. The name of the advertiser
we must insist on screening from a cur-
ious public but we repeat the offer al-
ready made that any reputable party
can secure the lost link in the chain by
communicating with the Advocate or
by personally interviewing us.
Omitted.

Mabel Barrows were inadvertently

Died in London.
The death took place at her home in.
London on Sunday last of Sarah May
Lyons, ivife of W. R. Garner, at the
age of 45 years, 10 months. Deceased

the family of Mr. Thos. Sweet. Be.
sides her mother, who has been resid-
ing with her, she leaves a husband and
five children. The funeral took place
on Tuesday afternoon to Mount Pleas-
ant cemetery.
Died in Michigan.
On Sunday, July 8th, the death took
place in North Branch, Mich., of a for-
mer resident of Usborne Township, in
the person of James Mahon, at the age
of 04'years. Death was due to Bright's
disease. Deceased had resided in Mich-
igan for many years,having gone there
after his marriage with Miss Belman,
sister of Mr.Wm. Batman of town and
Mrs. Julia Pincombe of Usborne. His
wife preder:eased him ahoutfour years.
He leaves one son, W. T., manager of
the Pioneer Bank in North Branch.
The remains were brought here Tues-
day morning and conveyed from the
station to the cemetery whEre they
were interred beside those of his wife.
Think over This. •
From Section 360a.of Chap. 19 of the
Consolidated Municipal Act we find a
point well worth mentioning in regard
to the voting on a by-law to aid a
manufacturing industry. It says: "To
render valid a by-law, of the muni-
cipality for granting a bonus in aid
of any manufacturing industry,the as-
sent shall be necessary of two-thirds of
all the ratepayers who are entitled to.
vote on the by-law, unless the number
of ratepayers voting against such by-
laly does not exceed one-fifth of the to-
tal number entitled to vote, when the
assent of three-fifths of all the rate-
payers shall be necessary." Thetis, in
case there are 300 persons entitled to
vote and 60 or less vote against the by-
law then 180 votes for" the by-law
would carry it; but in case oyer 60 vote
against it, then it is necessary that 200
shall have, voted for the by-law to carry
it. Think it over.
Nabbed at Centralia
Two young men, mere boys in fact,
whose homes are at or near Goderich,
were caught at Centralia on Wednes-
day evening last just after having en-
tered the home of Mr. A. Brooks,, sec-
tion man at Centralia, and they prov-
ed to be the perpetrators of the bur-
glary of Mrs. S. Hardy's store oh the
Tuesday night previous. While Mrs.
Brooks bad walked over to the station
at 6 p. m. they entered the house,help-
ed themselves to a watch, a purse con.
taming $2, apair cf field glasses, and
some victuals that were on the table.
On her return she noticed the supper
had been disturbed,• and on searching
found the other articles gone as well.
Mr.Broiiks immediately eet;,out in pur-
suit ani brought them back at' the
point of a revolver. Mr. Brooks' pre-
party Was recovered and also pert of
Mr. Hardy's property. The boas were
taken to Crediton arid Appeared before
the magistrate next day, when they
acknowledged the thefts and were sent
to Goderich for trial. It is said. that
they have been at the game all their
lives and that previous to the robberies
here they Were out on suspended sent•

Died at Kincardine,
'SVord has been received of the death
of Mrs, John Beckton, (nee Miss Liz-
zie MoAvoy) whose illness we reported
a few weeks ago. The deceased will
be well remembered by many, having
spent a few months in Exeter and vi-
cinity a few years ago. Some time
ago deceased contracted a, severe cold
which settled on her lungs, and she
gradually ,pined away till death re-
lieved her of her sufferings, Besides
her husband and four small children,
she is survived by her aged parents,
three brothers and one sister all in the
neighborhood of Kincardine; to whom
we extend our symlpathy. •
Forecasts for July.
A regular storm period covers the
15th to the 19th, central on the 17th.
Notwithstanding "anybody can safely
predict that it'will be wanner in July,"
we predict that it will be warmer at
some times than others, and that .this
period—the 15th to 19th, will lead up
to one of July's warmest periods.
More thunder storms and local "cloud-
bursts" are probable about the 17th to
19th. A Venus revulsion to very cool
may be normally expected immediate-
ly after these thunder storms, but for
the fact that the new Moon, at a solar
eclipse node, falls on the 21st. This
fact calls for prolonged high tempera-
ture, low barometer and threatening,
if not stormy conditions, over the 21st
and into the next storm period.
