It is nothing so common as the "Faller dorg" bat one of a more royal color that is,it is a purple dog and the mostaextraordinary thing about this animal is that he changed color in a few days. From being a white and black one it is now a much more sel- ect color. No doubt its owner, Mr Hurdon, who is a great admirer of royalty; will think ever so much more of him now. He lost him some nine months ago and was accidentally ire have the jargest and best stock of Lad= les and Children's Man=. ties in town. Don't fail to see them. SNELL & R VSE covered by two of Exeter sportsmen and was then black and white but when its owner went to fetch it. it was purple. Perhaps other dogs may turn purple with envy and even cats on pur puss (purpose), The dogs name is Sailor and no doubt it wanted to appear at Exeter fair in a bluish suit. We advise its owner to exhibit it at the Fairs, as it would be a "take in"taking sight. Any owner of a hound who desires to have the color changedmight api.ly to a farmer of Hill's Green, who pretended -he owned said "dog", THE G. N. W. EXHIBITON.• AlI in- dications point to a successful fair at Gederich next Tuesday and Wednes- day. The secretary is receiving entries freely and in these days of good stock and bountiful harvests the quality cannot but be of the best. Miss Green one of the winnersin the Industrial and Western Fairs competitions, will give exhibitions in butter making,and Miss Agnes Smith, of Hamilton, de- monstrations and lectures in domestic science. One of the Guelph College staff will be present to talk on the nat- ure study classes, and other model fair features are being arranired for. The speeding events will not be for large purposes and professional ring- ers, but more genuine sport and keen- er competition will be in them where the professional has the advantage. The exhibition of Celia B to lower the record here will alone be a noted track event. This year all members get family tickets as well as their own, and Last year's exhibitors of live stock who were awarded prizes of $5 or over get their stalls or pens free of charge. The directors will have everything in good shape this week and a good fair and an enjoyable day's outing is promised to everyone. . MILLINERY OPENINGS.•—` The mill- inery season for the fall and winter of 1903 has now fully opened and the fin- est collection of hats ever seen in Ex- eter was displayed in the different showrooms, during this week. In vis- iting the parlors of,the different stores the very essence of taste meets your eye, with the very latest and best, Paris and New York fashions. The Cavalier Roll is the picture hat over again with fuller curves and an added touch of gracefullness. Fashion says, "Sweeping brio :s and drooping ostrich feathers carried back in the full curve of the brim in many cases, but the toque will be the popular hat—small- er, at--smaller, neat and close fitting. Paris has given her followers plenty of choice as to shapes, As to trimmings tulles, velvets, Astrachan, Persian lamh, and moleskin effects, are a positive novelty. To single out any of the handsomest would not be doing jus- tice to the whole magnificent display, for never were prettier hats shown,. nor in greater number. To be seen is to he sufficiehtly appreciated. The milliners all claim better sales and more orders taken than on any prev- ious opening days, which promises a gond outlook for a capital season. DIED IN GALT.—The news of the death of Miss'Emeline Howard, which occurred at Galt, on Monday night, came as a crushing and totally unex- pected blow to the members of her family and her wide circle of friends. Miss Howard had felt some inward trouble for about a year and on Satur- day last went to the hospital where an operation was performed, after which she gradually succumbed from heart failure and exhaustion, The deceased was the third daughter of Mr. S. N. Howard and was an especial favorite with a host of young people, she at one time haying been an efficient member of Main streec Methodist church choir here and a member of the li pworth League. bliss Howard has filled the position of milliner at different places, having spent the past season in .Killarney, .tan., and had for this season accepted a similar position with her brother-in-law, sir. A. sec Tavish, of Galt, and was actively en- gaged n-gaged until a very few days previous to her demise. The remains were broughtinterred Exeter on Tuesday even- ing and in the family plot in' the Exeter burial ground on Wednes- day afternoon. The TIMES joins with a host of friends in deepest spmpathy with the family in their sudden and sad bereavement. BARN BURNED — On Wednesday afternoon the fine barn belonging to Mr. Wm. Penhale a, short distance west of the village was totally de- stroyed by fire. The threshers had been at work there during the day and were still threshing and would have been through in about an hour when about 2 p.:m. fire was discovered in one corner of the barn but from all appearances it seems to have been smouldering for some time. The fire brigade was soon on the scene but a very bad wind prevailing at the time all efforts to save the barn were useless, The contents of the barn were all destroyed including some 2000 bushels of grain threshed besides all machinery. Trouble never seems to come singly as only a few days ago a valuable cow belonging to Mr. Pen - hale had its leg broken and as it was impossible to get the animal out of the barn, Mr. Penhale had it killed to save from burning to death. The other stock was saved. The separator belonging to the Threshing machine Co. was also burned, The loss to Mr. Penhale is very great, corning at this time of the year and besides the barn was nearly new and up-to-date in every respect. The building and con- tents was insured for $1800 in the Hay Township Fire Insurance Co. 0.11,11110.

A SAD JPATHETIC STORY OF WHAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN A. sad story of a young man is told by one of our exchanges. A. young man bought a shirt which was manu- factured in the east. Rolled up inside of it he found a note from the young lady who had sewed it, in which she would be pleased to correspond with the buyer, provided he be matromoni- ally inclined. The young man ans- wered it on perfumed paper and used his rosiest language, stating how glad he would be to marry. In a short time he received an answer saying in sharp .10111.111.116 language that the lady had now been married three years and: was a mother of twoa'children. Of course he began investigating to find why he was too. late, It was explained by the fact that his goods had laid on the shelves of the local dealer, who did not adver- tise.—Warsaw Independent.
