1VIen's Clotl��s of Stye
Character and Quality
Two things s determine the lasting quality of a suit—the
cloth itself and the manner in which it is tailored.
And it is careful attention to these details that gives
first place, in the estimation of critical men, to suits
and overcoats from BROWN'S.
Take, for instance, the matchless suits and overcoats
made in our tailor shop, under most careful super-
vision. They are not made to sell, merely for the
passing dollar of the day. They're business -builders
of the future.
Come in and let us show you just how well they are made
and we are confident you will then realize what
very excellent values they are,
SUITS—Fine, fast colors Blue and Black Worsteds and the newest patterns in Fancy
Worstedsare the materials used in the development of these up-to-date suits. In
point of style, these suits have the latest approved two and three button sa'k
coats, with, medium or long soft roll, peaked or semi -peaked lape rounded fronts,
high -cut vests. regular or medium peg trousers, with or without cuffs.
OVERCOATS -The man who comes to choose his overcoat is not limited in
the matter of style—For the young men who demand the latest, there are
swell knee-length coats of soft, heavy cheviot, plain or with fancy check design.
Then there are the long ulster coats with shawl, converto or storm collars, and
the always popular black overcoats—Chesterfield style, fly front, velvet collar.
New St3 les in Men's Soft Hats
Men's Hats are more distinctively different this winter than they have been
for some time, and the most favored models are to be seen at BROWN'S.
Our carefully selected assortment has all the snap and dash of the newest
fashions, yet without that exaggerated freakishness so offensive to critical dressers
The new soft hats have high crowns and pencil curl rims—some very smart
styles having the heavy corded silk band and binding of a contrasting shade. The
colors are blue, bottle green, olive brown, steel grey, plum and nigger brown. Drop
in and try them on.
And in addition to the above we carry a lull line of

merchant you noticed his ad. in

FRENCH POSTAL RATES.
The French rate of postage will
be charged on all mail matter
for members of the first Canadian
overseas contingent, now at Salis-
bury Plains, Eng. Instructions to
this effect have been received at
the local postoffice. This action
was deemed advisable at present
in order to save trouble and con-
fusion when the troops leave for
France, and seems to indicate that
they will go to the seat of war
within a short time. Forty cents
for the first pound is now the
charge on all packages for the ac-
tive service men. This, it is ex-
plained is the scale on postal mat-
ter in France. The ordinary rate
to the Salisbury Plains camp, is
not accepted.
The Jackson Mfg. Co, Ltd. and
all of their Clinton employees had
a bee in their factory on Saturday
afternoon last and made up 60
blankets from overcoating cloths
and lined with a good dark shaker
flannel for a contribution to the
Belgian relief Fund. This is a
splendid donation and we are sure
they will be appreciated by the
suffering Belgians.
IN THE SEVENTIES,
From the files of the Stratford
Beacon, Nov. 12. 1875 ;—The London
Huron and Bruce Railway is now
complete for some distance beyond
Clinton, and Friday and Saturday
a large party of directors and
officials and several members of
the Great Western staff made a
trial trip over the road. The line
is said to be excellently construct-
ed.
OLD TIME STAGE
DRIVER DEAD.
There died at the Aged People's
Home, London, on November 3rd.

WAS A FAMOUS
HOCKEY PLAYER.
•
The old hockey players and fol-
lowers will remember the "lighten
ing streak" that used to play a
wing on the Stratford Hockey
team for years, in the person of
Mr. Charlie Lightfoot, who was
first tenor in the quartette that
sang at the Baptist church on Sun
clay to the enjoyment of the con-
gregations. Charlie has given up
hockey but is good from his pres-
ent pastime for years to come.
HURON FACTORIES GOT
THE COLD SHOULDER.
The Huron factories got the cold
shoulder from the Dominion Gov-
ernment, as regards, to, any work
for the Canadian soldiers. It dice
not matter who you stood politic-
ally the big interests were first,
last and all the time. The New
Era is thankful however that Can-
adian orders are big enough to
keep' the Clinton Knitting and
clothingfactories busy all the time
withouGovernment assistance,
PRACTISED LAW HERE.
The Conservatives of Dundas
county have nominated Mr. Irwin
Hilliard, K. C,, Morrisburg as their
cand•i}'t1ate for she'local House, 'to
fill the vacancy caused by the
death of Sir James Whitney. Mr.
Hilliard will be remembered by
older Clintonians as a former resi-
dent, he having had a law office
here some years ago. The riding
is so strongly Conservative • that
no Liberal has any show of being
elected, so that Mr. Hilti'aed's nom-
ination means his election., Se
stands high as a lawyer; is a prom
inent Methodist and will take his
place as ,a useful member of the
local House.
AN IMPORTANT PUBLICATION.
The New Era- will publish nett
week) in full the statement of the
causes of the war compiled by Sir.
Edward Cook a compilation con-
sidered' to
on,sidered'to be so accurate, and yet
so readable, that ,tit has been
thought worthy of circulation by
the Canadian Pacific Railway Com-
pany. Sir Edward has followed '
closely the text 'of the British of-
ficial statement .but has condensed
it somewhat and made it more ,eas
ily digestible by the average reader
It is important that the informa-
tion Contained .in 'Sir Edward
Cook's compilation should be in
possession of every person, wheth
