DR. MCRAE IN TOWN,—Dr, T. T. Mc-
Rae is in town and purposes opening an
office for tbe practice of his profession,
He is well and favorably known so re-
quires no introduction. The Clinton
New Era of last week says :—'•The peo-
ple of this town and vicinity will learn
with deep regret that Dr. T. T. McRae,
who has been a partner with Dr. Gunn,
has decided to leave town and start a
practice in Brussels, He is a young
man of recognized ability and skill, with
a courteous andnt e
e t
bearing
that has
made him many friends ads and
his contemplated removal will
leave a
vacancy not easily filled. Brussels is to
be congratulated upon securing so
estimable a citizen, and so proficient a
medical man." The News Record of
the sante town remarks :—"Dr. MORae,
who has been for some time assistant to
Dr, Gunn, is leaving Clinton to take tip
a practice in Brussels. The Dr. departs
from Clinton with regret and many
friends here are sorry to see him go."
Dr, McRae is a son of Rev. D. B. Mc-
Rae, of Cranbrook, where he was born,
so that he will be quite at home in this
location. His coming to Brussels puts
us in possession of five good medicos
with possibilities of the number being
increased,

combination they often broke up raids
on their goal by vigorous kicking and
showed that they were in earnest.
Finding that the home team were bent

ed their eleven before the goal and de-
spite all the shooting of Brussels team
(some of it none too well judged) the
sphere was kept out to the close, no
goals being scored. Much of the credit
was due to Goal -keeper Smith who
worked like a Trojan. Goal keeper
