Benefit Tour ONVII. Town.
--,We can endorse the following item from
an exchange : "When you return from some
ethor town with a bundle of goods that you
6uld have bought just as well f rom your
home merchants, don't you feel a little
mean ? Honor bright, don't you? You
are doing what little you can to ruin every
business man in your town, because we all
depend on one another. When you have
got the cash to pay for your goods don't go
off to some other town to make your pur-
chases and expect your home merchants to
"trust" you for months. Give those who
accommodate you the benefit of your cash
ransactions."

Obituary,
Brief notice was made last week of the
death of Wilmot beloved wife of Mr.
Thomas Cornish of this place, which took
place at the family residence on the 20th
nit., at the age of 61 years ancl 4 months.
Deceased was a daughter of the late Wm.
Johns of Devonshire, England, and was
born in that county in the year 1826. She
was married to Mr.' Thomas Cornish in the
year ]852, and a decade later with her
husband immigrated to Canada and settled
in the vicinity of Horn's school house.
Four years later they purchased a farm in
the northern part of the township, in the
vicinity of Bethesda, to which they then

many articles of clothing, mostly all be-
longing to other people, having been re-
ceived by the lady to wash.
No eharge whatever is made for the
insertion of marriage notices in the Times
and we will take it as a special favor if
ministers anywhere in the county will fur-
nish us with all such events to which they
are a party. Send them on a postal card if
you choose. Birth and death notices are
also inserted free.
A couple of weeks ago Messrs. John and
Thomas Ryan of Stephen made assignments
in favor of creditors, and on Monday Mr. P.
Coughlin of the same township also handed
over his goods and effects. It is difficult to
say how much in the dollar the estates will
pay as new claims are cropping up every
day.

The blindfold race caused considerable
laughter. Four boys were blindfolded, e.nd
started off for the prize, which was sus-
pended in the centre of the rink. .After
considerable tumbling, Master W. Vail
captured the prize. This ended the pro-
gramme as advertised, but a three-legged
race, which had been gotten up by Messrs.
Oke and Eacrett, took place next. The
pairs were Vail and .Oke, and Davis and
Eacrett. They went ten laps, Davis and
Eacrett winning by two -and -a -half laps,
the other two having stopped during the
8th lap. Taking the affair eltogether, the
carnival was a grand success, not a hitch to
