If shoddy peddlers call on you
these days days offering you"bar-
gains" in suitings, etc., consider
before you buy from them what
the cost of trimming, making, etc.,
will be. It is always safer to buy
from the reliable local dealers who
advertise regularly in your home
paper, and who depend upon their
honest dealing with you for their
business success.
BE CANDID B!ucTHERN.—In last
week's HERALD we had an item re-
garding the marriage of a former
resident of this section and one of
our esteem exchanges of this week
in copying the item, instead of say-
ing, "We copy .the following from
the Zurich Ifereeen of Fe;,'y- 1st"
says, "We copy the following from
a Detroit Daily of January 23rd
etc." Of course we are proud. to
see our exchanges read our paper
and make use of interesting items,
but we think we ought to get the
credit for any local news that is of
importance enough to be copied by
other papers.
Some severe comments have been
made on the Rev. Armstrong
Black's sermon, but one of the
most moderate criticisms is that of
The Pickering News : "To us it
seems that Dr.Black roust be affect-
ed by the prevailing gloom and sad-
ness caused by the Queen's death.
We see at tete present time no par-
ticular cause for these pessimiet•ic
utterances. Apparently the only
reason that he gives is that history
always repeats itself. Although
this as true in a great anany cases it
is not always so. Certain disputes
taking place between natio:is now
are amicably settled through. di-
plomacy, which, had they occurred
fifty years ago, would have been a
certain cause for war. It is impos-
sible for us to see into the future,
but it will be time to prepare for
these troubles when they are more
apparent than they are at present. -
It should be borne in mind that
pessimism in regard to war is one
of the causes of wars. Suppose
newspapers in England are confine -
ally saying, "We do not want war,
but France floes, and we must be
prepared." Then suppose French
newspapers are continually saying,
` We want peace, but Pngland will
never be satisfied until she stakes
'war upon us." In this case the
newspapers of both nationalities,
professing and perhaps desiring
peace, are provoking war. It is a
fact that you can do a great deal to
bring about war by simply predict-
ing war. This, of course, does not
mean that reasonable prec Lutiions
against war are to bo neglected.
But, after all, this country is not
in Europe, and the chances of a
great war taking place on Canadian
soil are not enough to keep any of
us awake at nights. Of course if
we were silly enough we could got
up a war of races or creeds for ex-
ercise, hilt we hardly think this
will happen. The chief business
of this country is to raise wheat,
hogs and horses, make cheese and
butter, convert forests and mineral
wealth into useful articles of cone -1
nrerce, and bring up a sound, intel-
ligent race of Canadians. Then we
shall be ready either for peace or
war.—Globe.

• ELLSWORTH RAN_NIL.
When out' eider residents and
friends die, although we niay feel
the loss keenly, itis something we
helve to look for. The years are
well rounded out and the end comes
in the natural order. But when
death comes in the .prime of life,
when a, young voice is stilled, then
the affliction to the family is hard
to bear. The sincere sympathy of
the whole community is with Mr.
and Mrs. S. Ronnie in the loss of
their third son, Ellsworth. He
passed away on Sunday morning,
the 10th inst., at the age of 23 years,
4 months and 25 days. On the
Thursday previous the deceased,' in
company with another young man,
were felling some trees on their
farm near St. Joseph, when a limb
from a tree the young men were
felling broke, and coming down
struck the unfortunate young man
On the left side of tho head, break-
ing in the skull, rendering him. un-
conscious. He never regained his
senses and breathed his last on Sun-
day morning. The deceased was of
a quiet, retiring disposition, intelli-
gent and well educated, and was
well liked by all who knew him.
Besides his father and mother,
three brothers and eight sisters are
left to mourn his loss. The funeral
occurred on 'Wednesday from the
family residence, Zurich, and was
conducted by the Rev. Finkbeiner.
The interment took place at the
Babylon line cemetery in the pres-
ence of a large concourse of friends
and acquaintances. Before the in-
terment the funeral procession pro-
ceeded to the. Evangelical church
where the funeral sermon was de-
livered by the Rev. Finkbeiner. The
gathering at the •chuach was very
large, quite a number were unable
to gain admittance.
