—It is stated efforts are being made
teinduce Mr. D. I. K. Rine, the cele-
brated Gospel temperance advocate to
pay Exeter a visit, with a view of his
waging war against intemperance. Mr.
Rine has beeu in the Province since
last winter, and has succeeded, through
his mild, humane and Christian way of
addressing himself to the question, in
making more converts to the cause of
temperance, than any other man who
ever travelled through Canada.
—The Goderich Star has been shown
a sample of slate taken boff the Apple -
,grove farm, Lot 20, Con. 7 and 8., God.-
erich Township, the property of G. W.
Sturdy. The slate is of an unusually
fine quality, suitable for writing slates,
and there can be no doubtif the owners
sh.ould work it, the_ profits would prove
to be very eoneiderable. One of the
samples shown is of the quality gener-
ally used. in the manufacture of slate
pencils, the best paying branch in the
slate trade.
—Messrs. James Wilson and William
Moore have purchased the factory in
Hensall lately owned by G. Cottle,and
intend starting in full operation all its
branches, rakes, bendiag and. hub -mak-
ing, which they intend carrying on ex-
tensively. We expect they will do a
large business, as they have already
_taken orders for over $2,000 worth of
bent stuff, and having secured the ser-
vice a of Mr. McIntyre as salesman, we
are sure they will have a widely circu-
lated patronage.
—Hiram, Mills; of Iona, on Thursday
was committed to jail for twenty days,
by Clinton, magistrates, for vagrancy.
This is the individual who has been
gulling the people with a mixture of
salt and indigo, -warranted to make coal
oil give a clearer light 1 and. prevent
glasses from smoking. He had a quan-
tity of the stuff in his possession when
committed. On Sunday, Wm. Purdy, a
poor half frozen tramp, was brOught in
and taken care of. The county gaol
makes an excellent poor house.

We would particularly call attention
to the following advantages:
•
FIRST -It affords a convenient slid efficient sup-
port for the under clothing, supporting them
in front as well as at the back, thus obviating
the most prolific source of weakness and
disease among women.
SECOND -The skirte can be supported at any
height desired, without encumbering the
waist, or interfering with the fit of the dress.
T1LTRD-This Corset is fitted to the natural
form, and not to artificial and distorted
models, thus combining ia the highest de-
gree, grace and beauty of form, with h ealth
and comfort of body.
FOURTH -The Self-Adjueting Pads are the de-
light of every lady. They give elegance to
the form, and are not in any way injurious
or objectionable.
FIFTH -It combines three garments in one ---a
Corset, a Skirt Supporter, and SeLf-Adjueting
Pads -and yet coots no more than an ordi-
nary corset.
THE HEALTH CORSET
Is not designed for Invalids only,
but is equally adapted to all women,
eventhose Most fastidious in dress.

SEED WHEAT.
THE Subscriber, believing that farmers in this
neighborhood are now fully convinced that
the Red Chaff Wheat has entirely rained, the
good reputation of our Canadian Spring Grain
in the European markets, as maybe observed by
the unusual difference of 20e to Ste per bush. be-
tween it and the prtice of Fal1Wheat; thatit is also
very liable to rust before harvest, producing flour
too dark and poor, for family nee. I would re-
commend attentiOn to the following choice
grades now for sieU at his Storehouse, Hernial
Station, viz.: 'antes Lang's Prime Minnesota
Fife, Selected Lake Shore Blue Stem, and the
White Eldorado, all at Moderate Prioes. Clover
Seed bought and sold.
