NOV. 23, '05 NOTES AND COMMENTS S Reliable information of a compara- tive nature regarding the business of the towns of a district is readily gain- ed by conversing with observant com- mercial travellers. Many of those who come this way state that Exeter is one of the best business places in \Ve,tern Ontario—the business homes ave of the best, the amount of goods bought is very large and prompt payment made almost invariably. t s The bye -elections which took place yesterday- (\Yednesday,) the returns of which had not been received at the time of going to press. will undoubted- ly result in a clean Liberal sweep like all the rest. The rulings end candi- dates are: North York—Archie Mc- Callum. Conservative; A. B. Ayles- worth, Liberal. Wentworth—E. D. Smith, ('onserva.ive; O. Healey, Lib• eral. West Launbton--H. E.

The pt•ineipals of the voltalic schools who have been interviewts) are noticeably unanimous in endorsing the fifth claws or cnnlrner- ciaal course, which it is contended, af- fords an excellent training for buys who look to the Pohlic School as their only educational institution.

This is along the right line, and hits leen for ye. us the opinion of most of the teacher•. in Ontario and they have al- ways considered that, greater gnvern- ment stipport should therefore be giv- en the public schools where the major- ity of the children receive their only ethical ion.

Now, there may be some who halve a very different opinion, because their children have not advanced ns they would have liked, but your cor- respondent has no reason to complain, having a little girl attending school less than three years and less than nine years of age who is already in the sen- ior second and in all probability will be advanced to the third form ere long. This we consider very good, especially when it is considered that in those kw years she has been under no less than three different teachers, in which ease w1' beli1't the child labors tinder great disadvan tsp. for art tenet three months.

THE PRINCt OF \•AL1$ What Flour Granulation Means in Bread -Making Flour is composed of myriads of tiny granules. To make good bread these granules must be uniform in size. In poorly milled flour some granules are large, some small. The small ones absorb yeast, "rise" and "ripen" before the large ones— the result is bread of coarse, poor texture. The large granules are not developed into "sponge," they bake into heavy hard particles, spoil the texture of the bread and make it harder to digest. ROYAL HOUSEHOLD FLOUR is perfectly milled—all the flour gra- nules are uniform in size—the sponge rises uniformly—the bread is even in texture — perfect in flavor — good- looking, appetising bread — easily digested. Ogilvies back it with their reputa- tion by branding it Ogilvie's Royal Household Flour. DIAMOND MOUNTING, RE -SETTING, FINE JEWELLERY MADE OVER IN SPECIAL DESIGNS, WATCH REPAIRING, ENGRAVING.
