The happy couple left on the morning express, and will visit ir. r - troit and other places, after which they will reside in Pontiac, Mr. And- rews being a• promising young business man of that place. The bride was the recipient of many valuable and useful presents, showing the high esteem in which she is held. Tien TIDIES offers its best congratulations and hearty gond wishes to 'Jr. and Mrs Andrews in their voyage through life. A PITIABLE WA II.. -The old saying that 'a drowning man will grasp at a straw,' was fittingly illustrated in last week's issue of our cotern., in its child- ish and erratic reference to an adver- tisement headed "To Advertisers," which appears in another column. The abuse contained in the article we could pass over, knowing that it eini- nated from the caustic brain of one whose conscience is unlimited in that capacity, but the grammatical con- struction and the spelling (no doubt the phonetic style) are features too conspicuous to escape the detection of even a second form school boy, and really detracted what small interest, the item might have commanded. When one undertakes to find fault with another, he should, if it possibly lay in his power, eschew the discrep- ancies of which he complains ; or in other words "people who live in glass houses should not throw stones." The advertisement complained of (and we believe in advertising) is substantially correct, and the statements can be verified by proof. We might add, however, that THE TIDIES is sent to subscribers in the township of L'sborne alone, to the extent of almost the com- bined circulation of the paper in ques- tion,not to mention the other surround- ing townships; while the entire circul- ation of THE TIMES is nearly double that of the same paper. Our subscrip- tion lists are available for inspection by advertisers, and in making con- tracts we invariably present them for examination. This is one of the rea- sons THE TIMES enjoys a good adver- tising patronage, (which no doubt chagrins our cotcm.) as it affords a business man a sense of satisfaction to know that he is getting what he pays for, or full value for his money Dr. Willoughby will next Sunday evening give the seventh address on the "Prodigal Son. Subject: Finding a Gold Mine." Cinematographe under the patron- age of the Exeter Public Library,in Gidley's Opera kiouse, Nov. 29-30. Se- :ure your tickets early. Thanksgiving services will be con- ducted in James street church on Thursday morning next, commencing at 10:30 a. m. Collection in aid of the poor.

The funeral of the late Edward ones on Saturday last, was largely ttended by friends in Exeter and rom distant daces. The remains were aken to Main St. Church, where a ermon was • preached by Rev. C. with, assisted by Rev. W. M. Martin, f the Caven Church, after which in, erment took place in the Exeter emetery, ►+'"i►+ OA OA.r:i►+ OA A w .r.* ►ice:iii:i hitie..�..itiititti♦i.lti���' RLI ROS.--abow, -----ARE• NOT LAGGING They are still to the Front with Good Coods at Right Prices.
