This time it is a "Wire Fence Man." He calls upon the farmer to ask of him permis- sion.to exhibit to the farmers of the vicinity his hew wire fence stretcher, upon his farm. In consideration for this privilege he will build the farmer thirty or forty rods of good fence u-herever he may want it, All that he asks of the farmer is, to board him, to go for the machine at the depot and pay the charges on the machine, not over three dol- lars, In order to have it all understood,the farmer is asked to sign a contract to the above things, written on a postal card, which the fence man mails to his partner. After the machine arrives, a new man turns up to demand $200, the price of the ma- chine. The farmer then learns to his as- tonishment, that the 'contract' for board, etc., that he was signing,was really an order for the machine at the price of $200. This last comer claims to be the attorney for the company making the machine and by threats of bringing a suit in court, forces some kind of a settlement to his fraudulent claims. Our injunction needs repeating once more : "Farmers, sign nothing for strangers " Brevities. 01(1 "Lord Haddo" is dead. The roads are in a bad stage. The streets have been scraped.

TRE TIMES is the best paper toadveetise thein in. Mr. A. McDonell purchased from a gentleman in Brucetleld, on Saturday, a pair of black driving horses, paying therefor, $350.

Fish's barber shop has been renovated, the interior re -painted, re -paper- ed and otherwise improved. To look at his window is a sight not very often seen. And to cap it all, E.

Some mean wretch visited the premises of Mr. John Southcott, on Monday night and carried off several parts of his steam engine.

We are pleased to note the success with which Mr. J. P. Aiken, of St. Marys, for- merly of Exeter,has been attended. He bas been attending the Detroit College of Medi- cine for the past two years, and had the degree of M, D. conferred upon him at the spring examinations, graduating with high honors. Before settling down tc prseti ce, Dr. Aiken will take a course in an Edin- burgh college. The probability is that he wvfll open an office in Canada. We join his many friends in Exeter in wishing him pros- perity. A meeting of the teachers of Main-st, S. S. was held on Saturday evening last, to de- cide upon the question of whether the Do- herty organ which has been in use in the school for some months on trial, should be rejected or retained, it being currently re- ported that the organ was not what it was represented. The meeting decided by an almost unanimous vote that the organ was fully up to its representation by the agent of the Doherty firm, and the matter of ex- change was deferred for the present. From ivhat we hear there seems to be considerable wire -pulling to have the Doherty organ rejected. Ladies, don't fail to see the prints and muslins at Jas. Pickard's. That celebrated entire horse, "Major" owned by Messrs. Dow & Colquhoun, of Exeter, died from inflammation on Monday evg. The animal was in his usual good health up to 5o'clock that evening, when he was seized with a severe attack. Every- thing possible was done to save him, but to no effect ; he died about half -past nine. The animal was valued at $3000, and the loss is not only to be regretted by the pro- prietors but by the farming community gen- erally, as Major was one of the best horses in Western Ontario, Be has been a prize winner for a number of years, having never been beaten. The proprietors have the sympathy of the community at l trge, as well as of horsemen throughout the district. In commenting upon the conduct of churches towards newspapers with reference to soliciting free advertising, an exchange says :—There is 110 reason whatever why the churches should not pay what is fair for such notices, the same as any busineas man. A church is a collection of business men and citizens, who singly support the press in various ways, and who collectively are not less able to do so when the interests of their organization require it. It cannot be main- tained' that the church is poor and tinder the necessity of begging favors, when the mem- bers that compose rt would think no more of doing it for themselves than they would think of making • a requisition on the council for support. Then look at the un- fairness of the thing to the publisher. A chut'ch entertainment is got up, but the en- tertainment it no use, unlace knowledge of it be spread far and wide and the people in- duced to dome and petronize^it. The news- papers are imposed upon to the extent of $5 to $10 worth of notices, if they were charged for in the regular Way, A large attendance is the result. The publiehers give their spade to that extent, which is as much their stockenetrade as a merchant's geode on his Ishelves,, and secure the success of this' enter- s £aliment, The church coolly pockets the profits obtained at the expense of the pub- ) fisher and expects him to be obliged for being put in the way of such interesting news,,, for' his paper. It waghandy to fillrp with you know. This sort of thing has gone,on until in many towns the church- ) es have„ tome to consider the publisher elleelty if he hints at such a thing as tom- ! pensatiot. 711, 2 Potts Bari esa, •1 ii$llII 11, a cul 1 11111;$1fore: to cheap t r`, 1rr.;'HX'RS.t'e sM Ladies, coins, and ehrldren,; go to Oa*, Biekar'd'a for thehrteatetyles in boots, shoes and slippers.

Watson, (formerly of Goderich) has been named Clerk of Court for the Regina district. The esthetic Oscar Wilde is said to be ter- ribly henpecked. This is what he gets for not being consistent. He should have mar- ried a lily, secured a daisy for a mother-iu- law and hired a sunflower fur a servant. It is not probable that anything will be done during the present sitting of the On- tario Legislature in the way of reducing the number of hotel licenses granted tinder the license Act ; so, the hotels that have been in a state of nneertainty may now feel at ease. The citizens of the young city of Stratford propose to celebrate ebe Queen's jubilee year by building a public boapital, and a com- mittee of the leading business men has been appointed to canvass the public for subscrip- tions to carry out the proposal.
