The latter part of March w 11 be rather cold. The above weather will eventuate provided it is cold from Jany 20 to Feb 20th. The Northwest will have a re- markably warm winter, and it will be de- cidedly warm in the Western. States, but cold weather will be experienced on the Pacific Slope. Western Ontario will be warm on the average, with heavy precip- itations of snow. Never in the history of Exeter was there • so much excitement incident upon•a nsni- cipal election as characterized the contest on Monday. Prom the day of nomination to the close of the polls the respective cardi• dates worked most euthusiasticaaly,all with a determination to win, and on account of the eomplexed state of the issues it was impossible to form an idea as to the sue- cessful candidates. In foot the issues were so many and so diverse that the re- sult of the polis was even a surprise to the majority. The vote was very mixed, the north going with the centre and south and rico versa. The town was thoroughly can- vassed by all candidates, and no doubt all were sanguine of election, Some of the c, za ihaatcs wi:l ce mpla:n of a great many of the ratepayers having failed to material- ize their promisee; and their failing to do so, illustrates the nonseasity of a personal catemee Intelligent people will vote as their conscience dictates and the most effective canvasser will not in the majority ot cases, sway them. The council for le9t) was compescd as follows: Reeve, Dr Rol - ins; deputy, W. G. Bissett; councillors, D. A. Ross, Hugh Spacl;,mau, and the late James Oke for a part of the terns. The eonueil fer 1891 is as follows; Reeve, Dr Rollins ,; deputy. W. G. Bissett ; Coons., Ed.

The fight is over, the council—and a goal one, too--eleete4,and it now becomes all liberal minded citizens to shaker over the affair anal resume old friendships—not entertain wrongfully courted spite, nor crawl into small holes to bury themselves.

Certainly look out for them, and for the genuine bills as well. These are times for looking out and reaching for all the bilis one can honestly acquire. DEAR Trines—I think it only fair to me in reporting the result of the election that you should say that the small vote polled for me was due to the fact that I did no canvassing and that the majority of the electors were not aware that I was in the field. - J.

TALK IS CHEAP A MOD. can do a wind pump business on a very airy capital, BLOW, BRAG and BLUSTER May catch the ear of the buyer for a time, but it won't keep his trade. Talk is dear to the man who has his caution talked away, his scruples talked aside. To the woman who is talked into over buying or buying a style of goods that will not stand the test of un- prejudiced judgment; such methods are only worthy OF A FAKJR AT A FAIR whose business is to sell and not to satisfy. These are not our methods. We call ten dollars ten dollars and not nine dollars and ninety-nine cents. This reckless reduction of price -thus dressing up a ten dollar bill to look like a nine—is a fake business. Talk is cheap when all its blowing ends in One Cent oft Ten Dollars We can show you something cheaper than talk --ave mean our goods—for talk is dear at any price. Goods with an honest X on them and not ten worked over .- to look as it it were a nine. Its a fake fit to go along with Barnum's circus and show bill exaggeratioi which describes the goods.
