We would suggest that before writ-
ing to Toronto for goods advertised in
departmental store catalogues, ladies
should compare prices and quality of
'goods with those advertised in The
TIMES by the home merchants. In
most cases if the merchants were given
achance they could give as good and
better bargains than the Toronto stores.
If they had not the article in stock
they would be quite willing to send
for it.
The shooting party, just returned
from the North, is strongly in favor of
the Government rescinding the order
which prohibits the shooting of deer
in the water. They found numbers of
dead deer in the bush which no one
could follow up to take out, while, in
the water the bodies would have been
recoverable, It also struck them that
the settlers are killing the deer indis-
criminately. In several places they
found that hogs and dogs were fed no-
thing but deer flesh. The truth is, the
deer have more to fear from the sett-
lers than from the excursions of ama-
teur hunters. The game . wardens
should. secure a few conyictions.

TEE Gun BURST. -John Ford, of the
Lake road, while shooting the other
day met with a mishap which might
have cost him his life. The discharge
of one barrel exploded the other, and
twisted the barrels into a corkscrew
shape. Nr. Ford was knocked uncon-
scious while pieces of the stock of the
gun struck him on the head, others
passing through his hat. It was a mir-
aculous escape,
•
A TEST. -The firemen were called
out on Wednesday -morning to test the
lire.engine. The fell complement of
hose was attached, and : when the
pressure had reached 150 pounds the
hose burst in two places. The hose
are comparatively new and are
guaranteed to stand 890 pounds
pressure. The test will be reported
and the rubber company interviewed
as to the inferiority of the hose.
House or REFUGE. -Thomas Mat-
thews, of McRillop, aged 05, died. Tues-
day ;• the remains were interred at the
Irist.town cemetery. Mrs. Williams, a
Brussels inmate, had the misto, tune to
slip on the floor of the sitting room and
break her leg, the other day. John
Cholwoll, Godericb, was admitted as
an furoate this week for the second
tinge ; three years ago he ran away
from this house, and on the 5th of Oct.
be ran away from Perth House of
Refuge.

CAN B:E CURED.: Word has ueen re-
ceived from Florie Northcott, who
went to Chicago last week for treat-
ment for a bite from a mad dog. The
doctor was satisfied that the dog was
mad, and assured the unfortunate girl
that,altheugh per's was a serious case,
she could he cured. Florie and her
sister, Miss Jessie, have secured a cnm-
fortablehoarding house near the doc-
tors, and state that everything is pass-
ing along nicely and that they will re-
turn home shortly. If taken in time
it is only one case in a thousand that
cannot be cured.
THE Boom IN PELT. -A peat fuel
company who will investigate the
muck in this section in a few days will
shortly commence operations in Simcoe
county, near Barrie. The plant re-
quired is a large one, costing $18,000,
The manufactured peat is sold in cylin-
ders, ranging from two to three inches
wide, and during a recent test at tbe
power house of the .Toronto Metro-
politan railway, says the Monetary
Times, it was shown that 100 lbs. of
peatwere equal to 98 pounds of coal.
There was only 4 per cent. of ash from
the former. whereas coal has from 7
to 20 per cent. The market price of
the new fuel will be between $3.50 and
$4 per ton. The factory to be started
n this section will be in the neighbor-
hood of Exeter.
JAMES ST. CHURCH NOTES. - The
pastor has held a few special services
fur a week or more. A good deal of in-
terest was shown by the church. Last
Sunday Mrs. Harrison, of Granton,
preached morning and evening. The
congregations were very large. The
sermons did credit to the lady's head
and heart and evidently a very deep
impression was produced on her hear-
ers. In the afternoon a mass meeting
was addressed by Mrs. Harrison, Mrs.
Ell'aiott,and the pastor. There was a full
attendance and good attention. - The
pastor asked for $72.00 for the super-
annuation Fund; we learn that the en-
tire amount has been contributed. This
is very satisfactory to all concerned.
The church anniversary services will
be held on December lith and 12th.
Rev. George Jackson will preach on
the 11th.
W. J. White, of the Interior depart-
ment, Ottawa, spent Friday last with
