Owing to the imminence of ?the
;Genus period and the Moon's first
quarter and passage over the celeciial
;eduator on the lst and the 2nd, we
may expect the preceeding reactionary
period to hold over into tbe,iregalar

ening ,conditions, with more or' less
storminess ahs December comes. On
andtouching the 2nd, expect a de-
cided fall of 'barometer, a marked in-
crease in temperature, with south
winds, tcloudine_s and rains, wind and
thunder especially towards the south
A short reaction to (rising baro -
Teeter and change to colder, may
probably Itollow about the 2nd to
the 4th, but storm conditions will
quickly return, and from. about Dion -
day the 4th, to Thursday the 7th
we may look for return of falling
barometer, south winds cloudiness and

ances of this period will rcqu:re three

the 'country, from their) point of or-
igin in the 'west( to thein disappear ::
ante in the east, During these days
each section will have its {share of
the changing weather phases, as they
succeed each other in their consecut
ive march from wet to east,. this
outlook practically gives txoiice to two
distinctive storm centers, to peas over
the weary during the first week
in December. ,Two distinctive baro-

On Wednesday last, Hardy 'Williamson
stood on the stage of the Exeter Opera House be
side Thomas A. Edison's
invention new n ention and sang
in direct comparison with Edison's Re -Creation of
bis glorious voice. From time to time he paused,
and the audience confessed that it had to watch
Mr. Willialnsons lips to tell when he was singing
and when he was not. In other words; Edison's
new art Re- Creates brilliant voice with such
absolute perfection that one is indistinguishable
from the other. Read what the newspapers say of

Rappold stepped forward, and 'lean-
ing one arm af.fectionally on the
phonograph began to sing an air
from Tosca, The phonograph also be-
gan to sing with exactly the same
'intonation. It is the latest triumph
of Edison, The fascination for the and
