HOUSE FURNISHING
• Our stook in the line of House
Furnishings was never so large or well
assorted. We were fortunate enough
to get all our import lines placed in
stock before the war tariff was put on
and all bought before the recent sharp
advance in all kinds of woolen and
linen fabrice.
You get the benefit as we have not
advanced the price in a single instan-
ance. Before supplying your wants
in this line see our stock and bring a-
long the catalog sent to you by the
department stores of the cities. It
will be a pleasure for us to have you
compare prices, and if we can't do as
well, if not better, we won't expect
your business.

Letter From The Front.
Prance, March 23rd, 1915
Captain N. T. Sinclair
Sir;—On behalf of the boys from
Winghans now serving in the let
Canadian Contingent, let Ontario
R.gt., I have been asked to write you
a few lime, Ae you can guess we are
not allowed to write very mu.sh about
our movements.
Just now we are out of the trenches
for a rest which is very welcome I can
assure you. I ans glad to say we are
all in the land of the living at preeent
and in first class health and spirits.
We have been able to stick together
00 far, and hope to continue fighting
side by side, and I think it will go very
hard with any German that attempts
to stand against us.
Shells from the big guns have been
flying backwards and forewarde to-
day over where we are resting and a
few aeroplanes, but we are getting so
used to them that we hardly notice
them. It is very funny how one gets
used to things, especially the above
articles.
Please remember us to the Mayor,
Town Council and people of Wing -
ham. We often wonder when we
shall see our friends again in Wing -
ham, if we ever shall, anyway we are
going to have a good try to.
1 think I must close now, as I have
not got very much news that I am
able to tell you, however we shall
have lots to talk about when we re-
turn, but this will let you know we
are all o.k.
I remain on behalf of the Winghans
boys Yours truly,
0875 R. E. N, Barron, Sergt.
P. EL Our address is as follows, the
only difference is the number, rank
and name of the soldier must be put on
top.—lst Canadian Contingent, British
Expeditionary Force, let Infantry

Battalion,
Special Council Meeting
The twenty-sixth meeting of the
Council was held on Monday evening
with all the members present except
Coun. Bell, who is seriously ill.
By-law No, 731 changing water
rates was then read,
Councillor Crawford said, Wes
much, as the hotels gave public ac-
commodation and much water used
for that purpose, they should get a
special rate. In many cities public
lavatories were kept up by the town.
but here the citizens were saved this
expense.
Councillor VanNorman agreed with
this as did Reeve Mitchell and Coun.
How about
that Suit ?
THESE fine sunshiny
" days make the chap
who is still wearing last
year's suit feel pretty
seedy. •
Old Sol says Ws time to tone up- and
get the Spring outlook on life, and ---
our word on it—nothing is so apt to
make a fellow look good and feel
good as a new head -to -foot outfit.
These are "Brighten -up" days, and we
have the greateet little " Brighten -pp "
