In the report last week with refer-
ence to Miss Godwin's Entertainment
we omitted the name of little Miss
McKay, who was by no means the
least worthy of mention, she having
taken a part with more than pleasing
effect.
It is reported front Toronto that the
present cold snap has had an injurious
effect upon the fall wheat, and that
if it continues cold much damage may
be done. Warm weather may over-
come the injury already done but the
reports ate not encouraging.
Easter services will be held in the
Main street church on Sunday next.
In the morning Rev. G. Henderson, of
Crediton, will preach, and in the ev-
ening a song service will be given.
The choir, under the able leadership
of Mr. Gurney and Miss Huston are

evening a treat is expected.
A partial eclipse of the moon, which
will be visible in Canada, will take
place on August 14th, and it total
eclipse of the Sun on August 30th, the
maximum occurring at 6:34 a. In. and
ending 7:34 a. u►. This will be a
grand Astronomical phenomenon and
will be probably the grandest sight of
the kind ever witnessed in Canada.
According to the Toronto Observa-
tory the chances are that overcoats
will be necessary for at least another
week, as the probabilities are that
Good Friday and Easter Sunday will
be too cool for comfort. The slight
snow falls during the past week were
not unusual at this time of the year.
On April 19th of last year we had
nearly enough snow to snake sleighing.
In a letter to the Advocate dated
April 8th, Mrs. Wm. H. Kerslake, of
Weyburn. Assa.a former resident of
Exeter, says: -Tile weather has been
fine out here and many people sowed
wheat in Mauch. We have just fin-
ished. It is early to be through seed-
ing even in this Western country hut
shape
land has been in excellent
the I n
for working. The only thing we lack
is rain. We have had none at all this
spring and as there was very little
snow this winter water is getting
very scarce.
Three topics for discussion came up
before the Bernd of Trade meeting on
Friday evening, the Railway, the
Knitting Factory- and the Location of
the Station. The St. Marys and West-
ern Railway matter was quickly dis-
posed of fot the present by the state-
ment that a joint meeting of repre-
sentatives from St. Marys, Exeter,
Sarnia and Whet places, was being at• -
raged for. In the Knitting Factory
matter further reports were Made by
Mr. S. M. Sanders regarding the suit-
ability and price of certam building
which might be purchased and con-
verted into a factory. The :attention
of the board was also drawn to the
fact that if anything were going to be
done it should be done at once. There
was it diversity of opinion regarding
the mtetteel of procedure but it was
finally derided that it committee
should be fortned,to wait on the t'mun-
cil and secure its consent to submit a
by-law to the people, asking for a loan
of four or five thousand dollars, in
case a company was fortned. The
motion carried and the Council will he
waited upon at its next tneeting. Mr.
L. H. Dickson reported that he had
received reliable information to the
effect that now. when the 0. T. R.
was contemplating the building of a
new station house, was an opportune
time to approach the company with a
proposition to provide a right of way
if the Company would build the sta-
tion nearer the Main Street, and that
such a proposition would be favorably
considered by the Railway company.
A cotutnitter. was formed to wait upon
the council with regard to this mat-
ter. A movement to get the station
more centrally located should be sup-
ported by every citizen.

There is nothing too good, not only
for the Irish, but for Canadians as
well. Do you have a dull heavy feel-
ing after eating, with headache? Or
pain in the region of the stomach? or
do you rise in the morning with it
tired feeling? and a bad taste in your
mouth? If so you are using inferior
flours, and we would ad•ise that you
commence at once the use of Exeter
flour and these symptoms will rapidly
disappear. HARVEY Biwa.
Word has just been received here
from the %Vest of the untimely death
of John Smale. son of Mr. Robert
Smale, a former well-known resident
of Elimville, and nephew of Mrs. Smale
of this place. The young man had
left bis home to go some little distance
and while on the way he was over-
taken by a storm and was frozen to
death. After the stortn had subsided
a searching party of the neighbors
was formed and his body was found
frozen stiff. In making the search it
was discovered that he had attempted
to build it fire at different times but
without success.

Hicks Forecasts tor April.
The next regular storm period is
central on the 24th, covering the 23rd
to the 27th. The barometer will fall
generally during the progress of this
period, and April showers will thicken
Into wider and heavier thunder storms.
At all the periods in April up to this
period, many parts of the eouutry will
get more rain than for many months
past. Low lands in all central to west-
ern states will have too much. Change
to fair and cooler will follow this per-
iod, up to the 29th. On the 29th and
30th reactionary storm conditions will
return. April will end with much
warmer weather, low barometer and a
series of thunder showers passing
eastwardly across the country.

Burned to Death.
On Friday list JIr. Samuel Bradt,
of Exeter North, received a telegram
regarding the death of his mother,
whioh took place under very sad cir-
cumstances in Port Huron, the pre-
vious day. 'fhe following from Port
Huron tells the story of the unfortun-
ate affair: "By at fire late Thursday
after neon, resulting from a gasoline
explosion, in a tenement house, Mrs.
May Bradt, aged 70 years, sold partial-
ly an invalid, awns burned to death,
her body being charred to a crisp.
The fire started in the rooms occupied
by the lady and her daughter. Mrm.
Bradt sought to escape but only gal
as far as the rear hallway where site
fell and the hotly was burned to an
unrecognizable nines." The funeral
took place Saturday at Parkhill. Mr.
Bradt, of town, attended the funeral.

The new waist admitu of an endless
variety of trimming, but no amount
of ornament can conceal a single false
line. The lining must be correctly
cut and boned and fitted to perfection.
The material may be put on either
severely plain or softly draped. The
simple surplice effects adapt themsel-
ves readily to the 1905 bodice, and by
studied draping they can be made be-
coming to the full figure as well as to
the slender one. Sleeves continuo full
at the top. The shirring down the
centre or along the inner seam is var-
ied by gathering, cording or stnocking
or by the newest device to secure the
butterfly effect. This is it series of
little tucks two inches long, and taken
crosswise in the centre of the upper
sleeve, much like the rungs of a lad-
der. Ruffles and puffs of lingerie, fall-
ing over tate lower arm, add a grace-
ful finish. Very dainty and pretty
are the little tuckers and chemisettes
worn with the open•thruated surplice
and draped bodice. The demand for
a graceful spring at the hip -line bas
revived the circular and umbrella
skirts, modified to meet the present
fashion for exaggerated fulness about
the feet. Most of theta are plain at
the top, hitt plaits, tiny tucks and
gatalging in front and above the hips
are used for thin women. Separate
costa of linen are exceedingly smart.

"Mrs. A. E. Warren, youngest
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Richard
Blatchford, of Exeter, died oa Sunday
of last week in Denver, Col., from the
effects of ay operation performed sev-
eral days before. The body was taken
to Sterling Monday evening and the
funeral services were held the
follow-
ing w-
itR day. Mr.and Mrs. Warren had
resided near Sterling for a number of
years and during that time had trade
many friends, who will regret to learn
of her death and deeply sympathize
with the bereaved husband. Besides
the husband, her aged parents and
her two brothers are left to mourn."
-Hannah Blatchford was born in the
township of L'sbnrne on October 23rd,
1802. where she lived for about 25 years.
in 1895 she went west to visit her sis-
ter -in -late at Sterling, Col., and there
she met and Married her now bereaved
husband in 1902. The union rusts a
happy- one, but affliction came in the
form of an internal malady and the
doctors advised an operation, from the
effects of whirl' she lived only a few
dae�
M. Early in life she gave her heart
to God and since lived it consecrated
life, willing to spend and be spent in
her Master's service. Many friends
extend heart felt sympathy to the be-
reaved parents.
