Men who get in ruts grow to like ruts. There is a certain com- fort and contentment in routine -which word is very close to "rutine." Advertising compels the advertiser to bestir himself -and since he advertises to YOU, since he wants your favor and custom, you can be pretty sure that he is doing his best to deserve your favor and cnstom. A WORD TO THE PUBLIC Give your custom to those who solicit it—who tell you they want iti who tell you what they are doing in your interests. Encourage those who serve you best and most.

Recently Dr. Findlater, of Leed, South Dakots, contested the election for Chairman of the Board of Education and defeated her mail opponent by the tidy majority of 173. Dr. Findlater is a former Morrisite, getting her first ed- ucatismal start at the stone school house 2nd line. She is a daughter of Wm. Findlater and a sister to Mrs. Sohn Clegg 5th line. A prominent place hns been taken by Dr. Findlater in church and kindred societies and she will no doubt discharge her new duties with ability. We congratulate her on her success. BRUSSELS, John Hunter and men are erecting the new residence of John Ewan, cor- ner of Market and James Streets. It will be veneered with pressed brick and will be a neat comfortable home, on a good site. A successful operation was performed at Clinton Hopital on May, the young daughter of Louis and Mrs. Hollinger, James street, Brussels, and she, is making good progress. The trouble was a swelling back of one of her ear. Mrs. Wm. McCullough died at her home in London on Wednesday of last week, She was a former resident of Brussels, where her husband died and will be well remembered by the older people. Mrs. McCullcugh was a fine woman and bad many warm friends. An adult family survives. On the las't day of April the old and well established stage route' between Brussels and Seaforth came to a ter- mination, It has been in existence for nearly 50 years, served the purpose well and will be greatly missed. Mail intended for Walton will now go via Myth or Guelph, Mr. Oakley, the stage proprietor, has the rural route on cons. 10 and 12, Grey township. TEE'S VS, ATE K.

Mr. Wightman goes to visit his mother who is well advanced in years being well up in her eighties. Mrs. Albert Mains, who came from the West a few weeks ago to spend the summer with her mother, Mrs. Richard Leishman, has been bereft of her in- fant son, aged 2 months after a few days' illness. Richard Procter, the successful and genial Tax Collector, has been success- ful in securing a grant of $10 from Morris Township Council to be used in building a cement walk from the Methodist Church across the street to the Methodist shed. This is much need- ed and if the walk is put in the proper place will be a source of good accomo- dation to the three denominations repre- sented in the village. After only a few days illness, there passed away on Saturday, May 2nd, Mrs. Fountain Naylor, at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Will Proctor. De- ceased was not in a rugged condition of health for years and at times was a great sufferer, which was borne with great patience and Christian fortitude. Her husbaud predeceased her some 13 years ago and one son Fountain, passed away -in the West 6 years ago. Left to mourn her loss is a family of 4 sons and 5 daughters:—Mrs. Butcher an.1 Mrs. Walters, of Wingham; Mrs. Charlie Bell, Blyth; Mrs. Procter and Mies Julia, of Toronto. The sons are Jack and Sidney, in the West; Alex, in the employ of the G. T. It , with head- quarters at Palmerston. Deceased's maiden name was Ann Taylor. She was born 67 years ago in West Wawa - nosh and continued to reside in that locality for many years. A number of the bowling enthusiests got together on Thiosday andhad a bee, hauling earth to and leveling a plot of ground west of the grist mill, where they intend making a bowling lawn for the corning season.

After a long illness John Sutherland, a resident of the village of Kinlough for the past 30 years, died" early Wedaes- day morning, May 6th, Ile had been ill almost since the death of his wife three years ago, and as his condition had been growing worse of late, the end was not unexpected. Deceased was 18 years Of age. He was a native of !iutherlandshire, Scotland, where a brother Hugh survives. After coming to Canada he Werked at his trade, blackstnithing, at Toronto and Brad- ford. Thirty-one years ago he married Miss McLennan, of W. Gwillinbury, who as already stated pre.deeeased him three years ago. He came to Kin - lough m 1874 and was one of the recog- nized old.thners of the locality, rounvc E. Our postmaster has been a little under the weather lately; we hope to soon see him around again. While hitched to a seed drill in a field a team of horses belonging to Mr. Souther Taylor ran away, breaking the drill but not hurting themselves much. Measles are repored in this vicinity. We are sorry to hear that Mr.. C. Rush is at present indisposed. A number of farmers in this locality have finished seeding, but some have quite a bit to do yet. Mr. Peter Leaver, who some time ago had the misfortune to 'have his shoulder dislocated, happened to have it knoeked out again lately and had to have it reset by Dr. Jamieson. Toronto, May 11—The market opened at a slow gait, and for a couple of hours or so there was very little business do ing. There was a heavy run of cattle offering,. including a fair proportion of excellent quality beef cattle. After the first few loads of cattle startcd moving toward the scales, business rap- idly improved, and there was soon a fairly active market. Prices were not any firmer than last week, some of the dealers affirming that they were 10 cents to 15 cents es - ler but as the day advanced it wrs found that prices were about at ills same level as last week, the gensral tone being, perhaps, a little ea.ier for cattle off in quality. Good straight loads of medisrn light butcher cattle sold steady at $7.90. to $8.10 and light heifers and steers at $7.50 to $7.75. Several loads of extra choice quality sold from $8.25 to $3.35. Good butcher cows were steady and firm at last week's prices, at $6.75 to $7.25. Choice butcher Lulls, firm, at $7 to $7.50. , Milk cows are qu!te scarce and firm, with a good demand for choice quality - Choice stockers and feeders, firm. Sheep and lamb, steady. Calves, -good veal, steady. Hogs, market wear and 110c lower, at $3.35 fed and wateree. LIVE STOW,.
