Mrs. I'h°s. Hawkins is on the sick
list this week. Miss Bella Hawkins
has ala° been unable to attend to her
duties at the store owing to illness.
Mts. Robert Dinney entertained a
number of her lady friends at a quilt-
ing party Monday afternoon and ev-
ening. The ladies report a very pleas-
ant time.
The oldest Canadian, an Indian
woman, Mrs. Elizabeth Flinn of near
Hamilton, died last week at the age of
11(1 years. She had been drawing an
Indian allowance for 100 years.
Messrs, Itobt. Sanders and N. Dyer
Horden have received invitations to
attend the Conference of the National
San itarhim Association, to be presided
over by His Excellency Earl Grey, and
a luncheon to be given by the Mayor
and Council of Toronto, on March Ith.
Mrs. William Hawkshaw received
the sad intelligence last week of the
death of her brother, Mr. John Thomp-
son of London Township, who died on
Friday last aged 77 years. Mrs. Hawk-
shaw and daughter, Miss Jean, left
that evening to attend the funeral.
The Exeter curlers who took part in
the bonspiel in Seaforth last week
made a good record, having reached
the semi-finals in the trophy and con-
solation events. They defeated Fer-
gus 20.13, Seaforth 21-14, and were
beaten by Lucknow '.}.1.-10, and by an-
other Seaforth rink 1.4-12.
"A most successful series of meet-
ings" is how Mr. %V. D. Sanders, Pres-
ident of the South Huron Farmers' In-
stitute, describes the meetings held in
the various places in the riding last
week, all of which, with the exception
cf Varna, he presided over. The at-
tendance was very good in every case,
the addressee were very profitable, the
evening programs were entertaining,
and the meetings were a financial suc-
cess.
Franklin Nelson, the infant son of
Mr. Daniel McCurdy, died at the home
of Mr. Nelson Baker of the 3rd conces-
sion of Stephen, on Wednesday of last
week, at the age of 6 months and 2
days, convulsions being the cause of
death. This is the second bereave-
nrentin the fancily within a short time,
Mrs. McCurdy having passed away
just a few months ago. The family
has the sympathy of a large circle of
friends.
"Didje know," inquired the reran
who figures out such things, "that we
are to have five pay days in February
for the first time in thirty-two years?
Yep. February began on Saturday,
another pay day, five of 'em in all.
To get Live in the month of February
it's got to be leap year and Saturday
the first day. That happens every
twenty-eight years ordinarily, but as
we jumped a leap year in 11$)0 it will
be the first time we had so many pay
envelopes for 32 years."
Gordon Brown the young lad who
was sent to Goderich two weeks ago
for breaking into the store of Beaver
Bros. at Farquhar, canoe up before
Judge Doyle on Thursday last and
pleaded guilty of the offence on three
counts, and after the judge had given
hint a thorough lecture on the effects
of wrong doing he sentenced Brown
to four months' imprisonment at hard
labor at Goderich, the light sentence
being given owing to his previously
good character. L. II. Dickson of Ex-
eter appeared on behalf of the young
elan.
Advertising
The average merchant chant usually gives
advertising too much or too little
credit. if the store management and
service are bad --if the stock is poor
and the sales force inefficient and dis-
courteous —he is likely to have a poor
opinion of the efficacy of advertising,
for advertising can do very little for a
store of that sort. On the other hand,
the merchant who has a fine store
with a good stock of merchandise and
excellent service is apt to think that it
is not necessary to advertise. He
thinks he can get along without it on
the presumption that the store wi11
advertise itself. That's where he is
wrong. The better the store is the
more this fact should he advertised.—

At the Durham Portland Cement
meeting at Toronto last week the old
directors and officer's were reelected,
although they met with strong oppos-
ition.
A shooting match took place be-
tween two sides chosen by 5. Fitton
and W. N. Sanders on Friday last, the:
latter's side winning an oyster supper.
Each side consisted of four shooters.
Mrs. S. Baskerville received word
from her sister, Mrs. L. Meakins, of
the death of her little grandson, Rob-
bie, at the age of 8 months and 22
days. He was a bright little fellow
and his death has cast a gloom over
the household. His death was caused
by teething and measles.
The Trustee Board of Galt, has
shown its appreciation of the services
of one of their teachers, by increasing
the salary of Mr. Chas. Tebbutt, son
of Mr. Fred Tal,butt, Goderich Tp.,
from $000 to $700. This is a substan-
tial increase in view of the fact that
he has only been there 5 months. Mr.
Tebbutt formerly taught in Exeter.
We are in receipt of a copy of the
Lethbridge (Alta.) Daily Herald, con-
taining the portrait of Dr. J. H. Riv-
ers, a former well-known resident and
professional man of Crediton. The
Doctor has evidently became a popu-
lar and useful citizen of the town of
Raymond where be has resided and
practised medicine since bis removal
from Ontario to the great west. The
good people of Raymond recognizing
his worth and abilities as a municipal
officer, at the recent municipal elec-
tions elected him mayor of the town
by a handsome majority. That the
Doctor is decidedly popular goes with-
out saying when the fact is known
that the town of Raymond is compos-
ed of nearly all Mormans and that his
opponent in the mayoralty contest
was a Merman of more or less note in
the town. A foot note to the portrait
says:—"Dr. J. 11. Rivers, one of the
foremost citizens of Southern Alberta.
He is a successful practitioner, a hust-
ling mayor and an enthusiastic advo-
cate of ever) thing that will advance
Raytnon 1."
