SOLD BUSINESS
Mr. David Cook and Son have sold
out their Flour and Feed and draying
business to Mr. A, E. Matheson, of
Goderich, who will take possession
early in October. For twenty five
years Mr. Cook and Son have been in
business in Clinton and during that
time have won for themselves the
highest esteem of the public. For
some time the management of the bus-
iness has been under the control of
Mr. David Cook, Jr„ who has proven
himself to be not only a man of mark-
ed business ability, but also upright,
honorable and obliging in all his deal-
ings. The many friends of Mr. and
and Mrs. Cook will be glad to learn
that they are not leaving town at
present and will probably remain here
for the winter months.
LEAVING TOWN
It was with genuine regret that we
learned that Mr. W. A. MacConnell,
having disposed of hie stock of drugs
and kodak supplies to Messrs Hovey
and Holmes, will in the near future
leave for California, where bis. father
has a large ft uit farm. Mr. MacCon neil
has been in Clinton for about six years
and during, that time has proved him.
self a most desirable citizen and a first
class druggist. Be is one of the
younger members of the Clinton Bowl-
ing Club and was rapidly becoming
one of the best players on the green.
Neither the Bowling. Club nor the citi-
zens of Clinton feel that they cannot
afford to lose Mr. MacConnell hot if
he is bound to go, here's good luck to
him. His departure' will involve a
change in the C. P. R., telegraph
office. Arrangements about this have
not yet been completed but we under-
stand that Miss Cowan the obliging
and efficient operator has resigned
ber position and will leave next week
for her home in Detroit,
