Don't ever place a five line advertis-
ment in your paper once and then
claim that you have tested the medium
of advertising. Remember the Indian
who tested the feather bed idea by
placing one feather upon a plank and
lying upon it all night. He reasoned
that if one feather made him so lame
and sore in the morning, what would
a whole mattress full of them do.

Death of Another 014 Resident.
Death on Friday last removed one
of Exeter's oldest settlers from our
midst, at the age of 80 years, 10 months
and 6 days. We refer to the demise
of William Hoskin, after an illness of
about two months, caused by a gen-
eral breaking up of the system. He
was born at Cornwall. England, in
1827, and when about t went y years of
age left his native land to seek his for-
tune in ('anada. This was before the
days of steamships and rapid transit,
and at a time when it took upwards
of six weeks to cross the ocean. For
some few years he spent his time in
different parts of Western Ontario,
but for over .'t0 years has resided in
Exeter. At about the age of 25 he
married Miss Elizabeth Kestle. and to
the happy union a large family of
eleven was born. Mr. Hoskin was a
blacksntit h by trade and for upwards
of 25 years he had charge of the black-
smith department of the foundry con-
ducted here by the late W. 11. Verity.
He was a mechanic of no mean order,
possessing more than the averageahil•
ities necessary to excel in his chosen
profession. Several years ago he re-
tired from the active duties of his oc-
cupation and enjoyed his remaining
days in rest. Mr. Hoskin was a ratan
of kindly disposition and sterling in•
tegrity. and during his life had made
many staunch friends. He was in re-
ligion a consistent Presbyterian and
in politics a staunch Conservative,
and served both on the Council and
School Board. Ile is survived by six
sons and three daughters—Arthur, of
Brantford: Richard, of Kirkton: Geo.,
of Woodstock: Edward, ('haries and
Nelsen, of Chicago: Mre. John Mc-
Laughlin, of Exeter: \Ira. L. Wnlper,
of Drayton: and Mrs. Moses Array, of
Stephen. The funeral took place on
Sunday to the Exeter cemetery, bis
sons and grandson, \V. Mel.aughlin.
