Say, we got in some swell
Suitings just the other day.
They are right up to the mo-
ment.
Coats are two inches longer 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 and anything that will
t as nicely as they do.

Forecasts for July. -
A regular storm period runs from
the 26th to the 30th, being central on
the 28th. All who have properly stud-
ied our theory and forecasts have sat-
isfied themselves of the fact that high
temperatures and tendency to electri-
cal storms are common on and touch-
ing dates when the Moon is passing
over the celestial equator. Hence as
early as the 26th, the last storm period
in July will show decided indication of
approaching summer storms. During
Friday the 27th to Monday the 30th
high temperature, Io a barometer and
threatening thunder gusts'will pass
eastwardly over most parts of the
country.

One of our subscribers took us to
task this week for failing, as he remark-
ed, to publish all that happened. It
was fortunate for this particular in-
dividual that discretion occasionally
demands the omission of unpleasant
items. Should we publish all that is
told to us we would be with the angels
in about twenty minutes after our pap-
ers were mailed. We try to print all
items that are news, or that will en-
courage, help or cheer any of our citiz-
ens along life's rugged road. We all
doubtless would enjoy reading "all the
news" when it's about the other fellow,
but our policy is to turn over to the
gossips the spreading of scandals that
only leave sorrows in their trail.
Two rinks of our lawn bowlers visit-
ed Hensall on Friday afternoon and
played a friendly match with their
club. A downpour of rain caused a
delay of an hour and a half so that the
two games were shortened from 18
ends to 13. The younger members
played well while the elder ones showed
good form. Following are the scores:
First Gagne
Exeter Hensall
Rev. Martin, sk 14 H. Billings, sk. 8
W. Taman, sk. 14 C.McDonelI,sk II
28 19
Majority for Exeter, 0 shots.
Second Game
Exeter Hensall
Rev.Martin sk. 12 P. Stewart sk. 13
W. Taman sk. 10 Seliery, sk 13
22 25
Majority for Hensall, 3 shots.
A splendid good feeling prevaded the
game as it always is when Hensall is
played against and their hospitality is
too well known to require any com-
ment. Hensall club intends visiting
Exeter in areturu match in the near
future. Come down friends and we
will give you a good time like you gave
us, Charlie McDonell's smiling face
is always welcome and so are the other
jolly boys of the team.
Farmers Look Out.
It is said that a man named Tren,ane,'
who claimed to be agent for the Man-
son Campbell Co., of Chatham, manu-
facturers of fanning machinery, has
swindled farmers in Hastings county.
One farmer gave him an order for a
fanning mill and a note for $13, and
then sent him a registered letter con-
taining the amount of the note. The
letter was received, hut the note was
not returned, and the only answer was
an anonymous letter, telling the farm-
er he should know enough not to do
business in that way. Manson, Camp-
bell Co. say Tt•emane is not their agent.
Ncisott—Dawson.
The Advertiser of Friday night says

Young Man Nearly Drowns.
Tom Carling, son of Mr. W, J. Car-
ling of town, by prompt and plucky
action succeeded in saving the life of a
young man named Gordon, whose
home is in Stratford, at Grand Bend
on Sunday. Gordon was bathing near
the dock in about eight feet of water
when those on the shore noticed that
something was wrong as he was seen
to rise and sink twice. Tom was stand-
ing on the dock and on noticing Gor
don's predicament he immediately
plunged In and succeeded in reaching
him as he came up for the third time:.
Tom is a strong swimmer and with the
aid of another young man who came
to his assistance Gordon was brought
to the shore. Gordon is now none the
worse for the wetting.
