DICKSON & CARLING Solicitors for Executor ... moi...;. In conversation the 'other clay with a gentleman veil() does a good deal of travelling he informs us that the crops this year are the best he has_' seen in ten years. That Thursday half -holiday • -just fits in beautifully and everybody out one is again pleased with it, The one exception just proves the rule. We would not know we were alive if 'we had not one kicker. Somebody wants to know why the park on Huron Street is not kept in good condition and why it is not used for a band concert occasionally and thirdly, why we are building other parks when this one has no apparent use, Wu have to thank somebody up north around the County Town, for their usual .courtesy ins, sending the list of Entrance results, to the :AdvoAdvo- cate just too late for publication last week. The thing has occurred so frequently that it almost looks inten- tional -so that we may, not receive it in time to publish the results the same week as the northern papers. It is stated authoritively that no less than $400,000,000 =has come in- to Canada in recent months, through immigration, and the sale of munic- ipal and other debentures; so that there would seem to be little zense iu the so-called money stringency. Tight money seems to be nothing more or less than tight strings on the purses .of the banks and loan companies. Since the North Grey election of last week there are many Liberal newspapers that are out hard after what they call "the entangling con- nection with the Dominion Alliance: They believe that ,the Liberal party is doomed to failure as long as they try to mix up with the temperance question 'because it .deceives no one, as it is only a political dodge. It is well that a pa xty should have a few plain spoken friends in their camp. BASEBALL.

The; christening of the new rowin park situated on the south hank of of the river Aux Saubie on Friday night last was an event of unusual interest The ,night was ideal for such an occasion and as a result hundreds of people from town, coun- try and surrounding villages gather-, ed on the grounds to witness the christening ceremony. The grounds were beautifully decorated with Ch:n. ese lanterns, bunting, etc, and a large band stand had been erected for the occasion,,; The Exeter Band was present and under the able leader- ship of Mr. Ed, Treble, discoursed many beautiful and appropriate selec- tions during the evening. Shortly af- ter eight o'clock the large gathering was called to order by Reeve Hee- rnan wife in a brief address explain- ed the object of the gathering, and at the same time eulogised the mem- bers Of the Woman's Institute for their zeal .and untiring efforts in bringing the establishment of the park to such a successful issue. The. Reeve than asked Mrs, Hastings, Sec- retary of the Woman's Institute, to christen the park which she did giving it the name, "Riverside Park" and in future this beauty spot will. be known by the suggestive name given by the ladies. The naming of. the park over interesting addresses were delivered by Revds. Sharp and McAlister and Mr. Hurdon. A large bon -fire was then made followed by a display of fireworks, including pa per balloon ascensions and also "The Storming of the Fort," ,ender the management of Mr. Hurdon.

R. Rogers, inspector of' prisons and hospitals, in a report just laid before Hon. W. J. Hanna, who. is taking the matter upwith a view to finding a remedy for the ex- istine condition of things. In the Dr- iltie. Hospital for Feehle-Minded Mast Year there were 817' patients, of whom 415 were male and 402 female In the Woodstock Asylum for 'Epih eptic, there were 196 inmates, • of whom 102 were male and 93 female, The total revenue from these instit- utions last year amounted to $25,181 and the expenditure $133,462, of whish about one-third is paid in ,salaries THE LIFE OF AN' EDITOR., Many people believethat a news- paper falls together without work,: concerted . plan or action. The Rev, McLeod a, Presbyterian minister at Pasanada was of this opinion and asked to be allowed to edit one ..di tiora of the Pasadena Star. 'Phis is how he felt himself at last at the end of his task, which, it must be said, had been done quite creditably. ,"My time is now almost up, as I pen this last line mp brain; is befuddled and ] am free to confess that I am right glad to vacate the holy spot. Such a jumble arid rush. It .strikes me as the effors to bring order out of chaos and do it lightning quick. I am re- minded of the memorable, words '`the earth was without form and void and darkness was upon the face of the deep and the spirit moved upon the face of the water." Never again shall I criticize newspaper men, more f shall pray for them. They wi,1 have my heart's' forbearance hence- forth and forever. They are the hardest worked, shortest lived, poor- est paid brain workers on this weary old world. BANIC TELLER SHOT AT SEAFORTH. Seaforth July 17. -An unfortunate accident occurred here last night shortly after eleven, when Mr. A. B. Martens, teller of the Dominion Bank was taken for a burglar and shot through the chest, the, bullet shatter- ing a rib, piercing the lung, and lodging in his back. A motorcycle outside the bank had gone wrong and the staff occupy- ing rooms in ithe bank building mis- took the noise for someone trying to get into the battle and -taking the re -1 volver proceeded to investigate. Martens who had occasion to go to the lavatory .in the basement a few moments previous, had not turn- ed an the light, and as soon as he appeared from the basement was shot. Medical aid was speedily summoned and he is resting quietly. The staff regrets the occurrence very much. WHY I BUY AT HOME. I buy at home- Because my interests are here. Because the community which is good enough for ;me to live in is good enough for me to buy :n Because I believe in transacting business with my friends. Because I want to see the, goods I am buying. Because I want to get what 1 5uy when I pay for it, Because my home dealer "carries" me when I run short of, sash. Because some part of every dollar I spend at home stays at hone and helps work for thewelfare of the towr and country. Because the home man 1 buy from stands back of the goods thus al- ways givingvalue received, Because .I sell what I produce to mY home people, be it labor or goods Becauso the man I buy from pays his share' of the town and country taxes Because the man I buy from helps. the poor and needy, our schools, our churches pur lodges and our homes.
