The Edmore Journal says :-Dr. J.
W. Harrison has sold his practice to
Dr. James Pardon, a graduate of
Jefferson college, of Philadelphia, and
the University of New York City, and
will go to Detroit next week where he
will take the practice of his cousin, Dr.
N. F. Harrison, who will retire. Dr.
Harrison came here fresh from college
a year ago last May and has been very
successful. In fact he has been so suc-
cessful that he has Handled nearly all
the critical cases brought to our notice
-during the past year. He is a success-
ful and skillful young physician and
his numerous patients and many
friends will regret to learn of his de-
parture. Dr. Harrison regrets very
much that he is • so soon to leave Ed
more, but he states that it is only au
opportunity of a lifetime for hire to
step into a large practice in tilee city.
Dr. Pardon carries the very highest
recommendations as a student and has
some experience as a practioner.

The postal note system, which Post-
master -General 'Unlock has deterxnined
to introduce into Canada, will come;
into operation next July. It is an-
other most important step in postal
reform that will be warmly indorsed
by the people generally. As describecl
by an Ottawa correspondent the paper
notes will be about the 'size of a rank
bill, and will be printed on thin linen
aper of the following denominations :
0, 25, 30, 40, 50. 60, 70, 80 and 90 cents,
1, $150, $5, $2 50, $3, $4 and $5. The
cost of obtaining these notes will be
1 cent each up to 40 cents, 2 cents be-
tween that' figure and $2 50, and 3•
cents each for all above that. These
postal notes will replace the postofiice
money orders for the transmission of
all small sums through the poet. The
present money order system' is a cum-
bersome and indirect method,: and
astes much time. It will be contin-
d, `however, with some improve -

of Richard Pickard. Deceased was
born in . Ringsast Parish Devonshire,

of 1819, with other members of the
family, he emigrated to Canada, first
settling in London, Ontario; then
coming to Exeter. He worked two
years with his brother Jaines. 13e
then went to Hamilton, but shortly
returned and again engaged with his
brother James, with whom he worked
in Exeter for 18 years, when be and
Mr. George Samwell went into busi-
ness for themselves. In the year
1804, he married Phoebe Elston, of
Exeter, who, together with six child-
ren mourn the loss of a loving hus-
band and affectionate father. Mr.
Pickard was a Liberal in polities, a
Methodist in religion, and a friend to
the poor and needy. He Was a warm
supporter of every good cause, more
particularly church work, in which he
will be greatly missed. The funeral
on Saturday was very largely attend-
ed, which testified to the high esteem
in which he was held by the citizens
of Exeter and surrounding country.

DEATH OF DAVID Soma., -After an 1
illness of several years' duration, but
which took a more serious turn lately,
all that was mortal of Postmaster
Johns, died on Monday morning last,
and was buried on Wednesday, in the
Exeter cemetery. Deceased had been
ailing for some time, his trouble being
of a complicated nature. Mr. Johns
was born in the township, of Usborne,
and was one of the first residents of
Exeter. In bis younger days he spent
a year',in Australia, but upon return-
ing engaged in the hardware business
here, which he conducted successfully
until receiving the appointment of
Postmaster of Exeter, some 20 years
ago. Deceased was highly respected,
having at various times held a seat at
the Council and School Boards, and
was a member of the Main st. Metho-
dist church, and an official of the
same. He was a man of sterling
qualities, his word being as good as
his bond. He was twice married, his
first wife, who (lied some 25 years ago,
being a Miss Tait, Deceased was 60
years of age, and leaves a widow, three
sons and four daughters to mourn his
demise. Mr. Johns was a Liberal in
politics, but took no active part. He
was a prime mover in the erection of
the Main st. Methodist church edifice,
and a 'large contributor to the building
fund. The funeral yesterday wa s very
largely attended, which evidenced the
esteem in which. he was held. The
ceremony was conducted by Rev.
Chas. Smith, of Main st. church ; Rev.
W. M. Martin. Presbyterian, and Rev.
B. Clement, of Clinton. A large num-
ber of friends from a distance attended
the obsequies.
PEACE SUNDAY. -01.1 Sunday, 190.1
December, Main st. Methodist church
observed "Peace Sunday", as request-
ed by the Christian Arbitration and
Peace Societies of Europe and Ameri-
ca. Two .sermons were preached. in
the interest of the objects and aims of
these societies by the Rev. Charles
Smith. In the morning the text
selected was "Great peace have they
who love God's Law. In the even-
ing the text was the problem submit-
ted by by Abner to Joab as embodied in
..the words "Shall the sword devour

usual thougbtful aricl earnest, and that
of the evening was especially strong
and eloquent. Mr. Smith illustrated
tb.e theme that war is a devourer of
capital,. and property and of human
life, the most sacred and yalnable of
all merely terrestrial treasures, by
many in controvertible statistics, and
by some pathetic incidents furnished
by various military campaigns, both
ancient and modern. He also argued
that if alI the monetary means, and
Mechanisms, and human influence
which are thus' perverted were con-
secrated to the work of ehristian
evangelism, very speedily would this
battle scarred and blood drenched
earth be sweetly ernbosomed in mil
lenial peace, not an armed peace, not a
mere commercial union of nations, bet.
Christianity with' its truth preached
and lived, and embodied in an inter-
national code and court,' of arbitration
is the only effectual answer, for the
problem "Shall the sword devour for.;
ever ?" The peace • songs, solos and
anthems rendered by the choir aided
much in making the services profit-
able to a very high degree,
