ST. PrTaa's ANNlvsnsasr. -- Shnday, NOV. 15th, being the anniversary of the opening and dcdteation of the new St. Peter's, the 0001101, l wee marked by the isecet1011 of the new Stations of the Cross, Bishop O'Connor being 110000111 and per- fecemil the vele:wont% Duly mass at 7 o'clock, and the Ilei: copal 111505 et 7,30 began the screlcec of the day. At 10 o'clock High Maes v+a0 oslobrated, with Rev, Dena Murphy, cif iriehtown, es cele- brant. At ibe conclusion Bishop O'Con. nor preached an appropriate and instru0- tive 00001on, dealing with the ceremony of the day, the origin and purpose of the practice of following the Way of the Cross. At the coneluei n of the sermon the etetions were blt_•i,e2 by the libitum, and hung on the walla el t110 church, seven 00 either side. As each station leas erected, the prayers of the Way of the Cro's, were recited by Rev. lather West, and the choir chanted the delorous "Stall'at Mater." The fourteen oil painting which comprise the stations are exceedingly line works of art, painted by the celebrated French artist, Cabana, and were purchased by Rev. Father West during a recent visit to Montreal, at a cost exceeding $800, The massive hand - carved oak frames, which stand over dos feet in height, are -the donation of Alex, Martin, of Walkerton, formerly of Gode- ricb, and are valued at $200, The new stations harmonize thoroughly with the other sub.tantial and costly furnishings of the church, the church furnishings and the frames being both natural oafs, and the fine paintings are sustained in their grandeur by the beautiful cathedral windows beside them. The attraction of the day, however, wee in the evening service, when Rev. Father 41cl3rady, President of St, Michael's College, Toronto, preached the sermon. The altar was gorgeously decorated, and the illumination was perfect. Vespers was sung by the choir, and the following clergymen were in the sanctuary, Bishop O'Connor, Rev. Dean Murphy, of Irish - town, Rev, Fr. Dickson, of Asheled, Rev, Fr. ltfcKeon, of St, Augustine, Rev. Fr. West, and the speaker. This was not Father MoBrady's first appearance in Goderioh, as he was the orator on the occasion of the laying of the oorner-stone of the present handsome edifice an the 17th of May, 1896, and the effect of his sermon on that day, was such as to tax tbe seating capacity of the ohuroh on Sunday last. He took for bis theme, "The Divinity of Christ," reviewing the prophesies which foretold His coming and His work, and comparing them wibb the sotnal events of His life, He also described in graphic terse the sefferinge and death of. our Lord, drawing from them alone indisphtable proof of the di- vinity of Christ. and the sublimity of His mimes. Though the rev. gentleman spoke for an hour and a half, the master- ly handling of a grand subject Dame to ee end a)1 too seem and the eloquence which so enchanted the audience on Sun- day evening will always gain for him as large and as attentive a congregation as then greeted him.

After a business experience in Brussels of 20 years I desire to return my hearty thanks to the Public for their liberal patronage and at the same time to state that I am in a better position than ever to sell good goods at low prices. Having two stores, one in Brussels and the other in Seaibrth, and consequently buying in large quantities enables me to purchase a great deal finer than I could in the past. You must not compare prices of ,ri years ago, or oven 1 year ago, with what they are to -day, and I assure the Public that it will well repay thein to call and soil goods and get figures, even if you don't buy. I cannot give a list of prices here as I carry such an endless variety of goods consisting of I'UUNITUILE of all styles from the lowest priced to the best. The largest stock of Pictures and -Picture Framing goods ever shown in Brussels may be found at my Emporium and they are solei at half the old price. In Organs I have been selling thele at from $15 to $20 lower than other dealers, but I can now sell thein cheaper than ever. Buy the best—the Goderieh or the Bell—both of which I am agent for. yfor. o / mr is az I prefer to 'say but little about this department, as I have been with you doing business for many years, and those who have called on me are best able to say whether I have given satis- faction or not.
