The Up-to-date Girdle.
"The girdle is an highly important
feature of fashion and while its obvious
purpose is to furnish the smartEmpire
touch, clever dressmakers compel it to
serve the more important one of round-
ing angular lines and toning down ex-
uberant ones. It must fit to perfection
and yet appear to be worn with easy
grace. Itslines, neither severe nor yet
careless, must harmonize with those of
the costume, and at the same time
prove becoming to the wearer. It may
be of the gown material, of handsome
ribbon, of silty, thin velvet, or suede.
For braid -trimmed gowns, it is cover-
ed with overlapping rows of braid skil-
fully manipulated over the curves of
the figure. The Empire girdle ends
well above the waist -line. This is mod-
ified for fall figures, being brought
down to the waist -line at the sides, and
thence in a point to the front like an
1830 bodice, but whatever the shape or
material of the girdle, it must fit with
the proverbial perfection of a glove. To
secure this result, shapely corsets are
essential, and a girdle lining correctly
cut, closely boned, and fitted with the
utmost care, both in a standing and a
sitting position. The girdle cut
straight across the top is smart, but r
extremely trying. A gradual curve
from under the artns downward is
more generally becoming."—Helen
Berkeley Loyd in the November Del-
ineator.

committee of the County Council was
held in Goderich recently to take steps
in connection with the transfer of pro-

decided that the lot might be sold, if
its value could be got for it. The
County solicitorand the inspector were
authorized to make proper arrange-
ments for the transfer to the county
of property belonging to inmates.

been but a short time in Raymond yet
he is evidencing his confidence by the
purchase of a couple of fangs from the

of the Milk River Ridge where the soil
is black, the grass thick, the cattle and

A Reactionary Storm Period is cen-
tral on the 23 to 25, at which time
change to warmer, failing barometer,
with cloudiness and more autumnal
rain may be expected. Our agricul-
tural readers should keep all, these Oct.
periods well in mind. Navigators of
the big lakes will pay for all reckless
disregard for storm warnings. See if
they don't! North Atlantic mariners

Death of Mrs. Fear.
Death visited the Main street par-
sonage on Friday last and removed
of its ingrates, Mrs. Jane J. Fear, moth-
er of the Rev. E, A. Fear. For some
years the deceased has made her home
with her son and for the greater part
of the time has been in very poor
health, consequently death came as a
relief to the prolonged sufferer. Al-
though she had been confined to her
bed for many months she suffered lit-
tle pain and had eaten her meals reg-
ularly, The end came very quickly,
she having eaten her dinner shortly
after twelve o'clock and died less than
an hour afterwards, She had resided
in Exeter only since July, when Mr.
Fear became stationed here. Mrs. Fear
bore her long affiiction with Christian
fortitude and passed away in the firm
belief of her Saviour's merits. Her re-
mains were taken by train to Stratford
on Monday morning and there interred
beside those of her late husband. She
had reached the age 79 years, 2 months
and 5 days.
A Good Entertainment.
Everybody was well pleased with
the Marietta LaDell Concert Com-
pany's entertainment given in the
Opera House Monday evening as the
first ofa series of four entertainments
to be put on during the season. To say
that the people were pleased is ex'press-
ing it mildly and the excellence of this
entertainment is surely a guarantee
that those to follow will be equally
good. The entertainers were Marietta
LaDell, reader; Emily Frances Scott,
soprano; and GeorgeFox, solo violinist,
Each and every number was enthus-
iastically applauded and encores were
pleasingly responded to. The readings
of Miss LaDell showed a remarkable
versatility while her stage appearance
and magnetic personality added great-
ly to the value of her numbers. Miss
Scott has a voice of unusual range and
sweetness and she sang with much ex-
pression. She appeared here for the
first time Monday night and made a
most favorable impression. Geo. Fox
ae•a violinist is very clever. His beau-
tiful tone was apparent in every selec-
tion while his fingering and general
techinque was very pleasing. He is
without a doubt the best violinist that
ever appeared in Exeter. The attend-
ance was not large but sbonld these
artists ever return we would predict a
frill house.
Collingwood—Prouty
The residence of Mr, Samuel Prouty
of Sodom was yesterday (Wednesday )
the scene of a pretty event, when his
eldest daughter, Miss Laura Pansy,
gave her heart and hand to Mr. Tom
Collingwood of town. At seven o'clock
p.m. the bridal party entered the. par-
lor and it was here that Rev. Fear pro-
nounced the sacred _words that made
the young couple one, The bride look-
ed very winsome in a beautiful gown
of white organdy. She was attended
by her sister, Miss Linny, who wore a
similar dress to that of the bride. The
groom was supported by Mr. William
Carrick. The ceremony and congrat-
ulations being over the happy gather-
ing, to the number of about twenty,
repaired to the dining room where all
partook of a dainty and delicious tea.
Space will not premit us to enumerate
the gifts received by the bride, suffice
to say they were numerous and of a
high order. The evening was very
pleasantly spent in social chat and
harmless amusements. Mr. and Mrs.
Collingwood have taken up their resi-
dencetn town, occupying the house
recently vacated by Mrs. Ortwein, at
the rear of A. Pym's blacksmith shop.
The Advocate joins with the many
friends in wishing the young couple
alife. long, happy and prosperous married
Died in London, England.
Last week mention was made in
these columns of the serious illness of
Mrs. James Jeckell, who left here
some few weeks ago to visit the land
of her birth, while this week it becomes
our sad duty to•record her death, she
having died in London, Eng., Tuesday
morning about 5 o'clock. Mrs. Jeck-
ell's death was not wholly unexpected
because she was in very poor health
but it was thought that she would at
least be spared to mike the return trip
and again be restored to her near and
dear friends who so anxiously awaited
tbe home coming. The deceased had
been ailing for months from internal
trouble and while she was always'
cheerful. as was her nature, the dis-
ease with which she was afflicted was
gradually making fatal progress and
robbing her of that once robust and.
healthy constitution, notwithstanding
th bestca
e medical it and attention."
Believing that a trip across the ocean
would better her condition and ba.ving
a strong desire to see bei many old
time friends and relatives, she, in cone
piny with •-her danrgbter. Mrs. N. 1),
Hurdon, left some few weeks ago for
the old country.Shortly after atriv-
ing'her condition'eeerned to he improv-
ed, but it proved to be only temporary
and taking a turn for the worse she
soon passed to her long borne and the
struggle was ended. The deceased
came to Canada in company with part
of her family alemt fifteen years ago
and stettling in Exeter hes ever since
Made this her borne, Mrs, Jec:kr it teas

a large circle of friends, Besides a
