filieWatch is £iiferent
Buying a watch—an article that is to be handled, and looked
at, and depended upon, scores of times every day of your natural
life—is somethi><ig entirely different from buying almost all other
personal effects.
Clothes arefor a season or two only, hats become old and old-
; fashioned, shoes wear out. alas! too soon, neckties and linen soon
become passe, but a watch is always with you, regulating your
movements by day and night.
Be wise, therefore, and save honey, and save annoyance along
life's journey by purchasing only a watch of sterling integrity.
Reliable watches are the only kind we offer you, and every
watch leaving• this house is "guaranteed, of course." -

IT WAS A STRANGER.
A number who gathered et the Bap-
tist church. for worship.,last Sunday
morning hail their hopes raised for
a moment only to be - dashed later
The pulpit is being supplied for the
present and word had gone around
that "Mr. Ford of . Toronto" was to
be the preacher that day. People na-
turally thought of their own late pas-
tor, the Rev. E., 0. Porde, but when
'the minister came in front the vestry
and took his place in the pulpit they
were disappointed to see that he was
a stranger. ' It was Mr. Ford, but
Ford is a cemparativoly common
name, especially that spelled without
the e on the end,
THE FLOWER SHOW
The Horticultural Society had a
flower show on Friday and Satur-
day last in the town hall. And it
wasa very great success in every re-
spect.
There was a fine display of flowers
of almost every sort, curt flowers
flowering plants, ferns, etc. It was
a great display and was most taste-
fully arranged, the members of the
committee haying that part of the
work in hand sparing no labour to
matte it a success.
The Seaforth Horticultural So-
ciety sent a number of gladioli to
add to the beauty of the scene, an
act of courtesy which was apprec-
iated by the local Society.
The show was open afternoon and
evening and on each evening the
Phelan Orchestra dispensed sweet
music.
And the members of the Girl's
Auxiliary served tea, having ar-
ranged small tables on the stage for
the purpose. The proceeds of the
tea went into the hospital fund,,
Many were the expressions of as-
tonishment at the great variety of
the flowers shown
The sweetpea display was very
good indeed, for so late In the sea-
son and the gladioli shown were of
great variety and beautiful speci-
mens. Mrs. W. Jenkins' first prize
spike of pure red and Mr. H. R.
Sharp's second prize spike of pure
white were about as prfeet specimens
as _could be imagined, while there
were dozens of others almost as good,
Several entries of roses were much
admired and the asters were so per-
fect that it was hard to tell winch
was deserving the prizes. There were
also many odd specimens for which
no prizes were offered.
The ,fact that the show was held
upstairs made it more difficult getting
the plants up but last year it was
found that the Agriculturtal offices
were too small to allow a proper dis-
play.
On Saturday evening the cut flow-
ers were sold, netting something like
$25 which also went into the hos-
pital fund.

TOO BUSY FIGHTING.
•
This happened right here in town—
Two young men, both returned sol-
diers—one United States, the other
Canadian—were chatting_ amicably
together when the American started
to use French in his conversation. He
was halted and asked to speak Eng-
lish. "Oh," ho said, "all the Ameri-
cans learned French while over
there." "Well" said the Canadian
Lieutenant, `"we Canadians had no
time to study the language" No,
there was no international mist -up,
though conversation languished, The
close was bitter but it was swallow-

GODERICH H. B. HERE.
Yesterday afternoon Mr. Common,
Mrs, M. G. Cameron, Mrs. Carrie,
members of the Goderich Hospital
Board, and the Rev, J. E. Ford,
president, carne down to Clinton
to meet the members of the
Clinton Hospital Board in order to
talk over with them co-operation ih
the platter of obtaining county grants
for She hospitals. Mr. Ford ad-
dressed the gathering. The Iocal
board, while hoping for an increas-
ingly generous yearly grant, seems
content to accept' what the county
coiincil decides upon when the mat-
ter is laid before them, rather than
to ask for a definite sum, as the
Goderich board did last season. No
definite action was taken.

cream business for the past year, has

Chesley, who is already in possession.
Mr. Wendorf has been in the same
business in Chesley for the past six
years. He event overseas with the
Bruce Battalion and saw service 10
France.
Mr. McNeil has not just cleolded
what he will do. - We trust, howev-
er, he will not decide to leave town,
Mr.• Wendell makes an announce-
ment to the public on another page
of this issue,
IIOW IT WORKS OUT,
We are sometimes inclined to
grumble at the price of—say apples,
and to think the advance is not jus-
tified. Few probably, stop to consid-
er that the advance 1n price does not
by any means all go to the farmer
who grows the fruit. A barrel which
used to bring 25c. now costs $1.50
and of course the wages of piercers,
packers, haulers, etc. have gone up
to doable or more. But in this case
the "conserver pays," as usual. Ile
not only pays a much larger price
for his apples but he doesn't get so
many in a barrel. The barrels macre
now measure 281/3 inches inbteas of
30, which makes a difference of about
a basket in its capacity. The output
of an orchard will thereby he in-
creased by one basket to every five.
BIG POTATOES.
As usual Clinton has again out-
distanced Goderich. This tune in
the natter of large potatoes. 'We be-
lieve the Goderich grower's large po-
tato weighed eighteen ounces. Mr,
E. 1VIunro has had a couple of good -
shaped specimen's in his window dur-
ing the past week, one weighing one
pound six and a half, and another
weighing one pounce seven and a half
ounces, and Mr. 3. C. 13cMath had
one weighing twenty-two and a half
°epees. So we gather that rite crop
is a good one generally„ A story
conies from Blyth about some mon-
ster potato weighing two pounds.
:But Mr. J. Carrick of Albert street,
Clinton, has one weighing two and
three-quarter pounds, and Mr. Harty
Cook of North street, a fine looking,
well -shaped specimen weighing two
pounds. Mr. Carrick says there are
very few small potatoes in his crop,
which will yield about eighty bushels
to the quarter acre.
And along comes Miss ICathIeen
Livermore, a pupil of the
Model School, who last spring plant-
ed five pounds of - potatoes supplied
by the Department of Agriculture,
and last week dug ten pailfulis as
the yield. Those who attend the
Clinton School Fair next week will
probably be surprised at the quality
of the vegetables grown by the pupils
in the different school centres,
A BAD ACCIDENT,
The. following from today's Free
Press refers to a son-in-law of Mrs.
Wigginton of. town. It is not yet
known whether Mr. Rodgers will re-
cover:
Sid Hodgins. aged 50, of Lucan, a
Prominent race horse driver, was ser-
iously hurt yesterday afternoon at the
Western Fair grounds in the second
heat of the 2.30 pace, when the cart in
which he was riding overturned and
several horses piled ilp on him. As a
result of the accident his skull was

dition at Victoria' Hospital.

er, being a former member of the
American Racing Association. I -Te was

J. E. Lucas, of Bothwell. Mr. Hod-
gins was streck on the head with a

jured and one of his legs hurt. The
