at the residence of Prince Dolgouroukoff
which was found to contain the head of

ters, in order to get them to withdraw
Itheir support. The medical men of which he has rented in the township of
•
Huron have neve, been represented tin! McKillop. --=Charles Agen sold his team
the board, and now when they have of horses at the Brum& horse fair for

CAUTION TO THE PUBLIC.—As will be
seen in the public press, farmers and others in
the County of Huron have been victimized by
irresponsible dealers, who hold the organs
simply under a lien held by another, who reallv
owns the instriunents and in case the agent
does not hand over the proceeds of the sale, the
organ is seized on the price or collected a second
time. In view of the above facts we wish to
state that as we have been in the Piano and
Organ business in Seaforth for over fifteen
years, we can reasonably claire the confidence
of intending purchasers, and ask that they may
call on us before buying from agents, who have
no stake in the town or country and who do not
know whether the goods they are selling, for
the time being, are shoddy or not. New organs

A Great Shingle State.
Michigan produces the largest num-
ber of shingles, there being over 1,600
establishments in that state where they
are manufactured. Shingles are either
sawed or split. The timber. is sewed
lett+ square blocks and these in turn are
cut into shingles of about a quarter of
an inch at the butt end. Large supplies
of pine shingles come from Wisconsin,
Minnesota,New York and Pennsylvania.
The product of these states is mostly
sawed.
The Last Word.
The last word is the Most dangerous
of infernal machinery. Husband and
wife should no more fight to get it than
they would struggle for the possession
of a lighted bombshell. Married people
should etady each other's weak points,
as skaters look out for the weak parts of
the ice in order to keep off them.
Ladies who marry for love should, re-
member that the union‘of angels With
women has been, forbidden since the
Flood. The wife Is the sun of the social
system.. Unless she attracts there is
nothing to keep heavy bodies, like hus-
bands, from flying into space. The wife
who would properly discharge her duties
must never have a soul above, trifles.
Don't trust too much to good temper
when you get into an argument. Sugar
is the substance most universally diffus-
ed through all natural products. Let
married people take a hint from this
provision of nature.
—The Brussels Post of last week
says - We regret to hear of the ladlepositionf A. H. Musgrove, of White-
churoh, who was the nominee of the
East Huron Conservative Convention.
The trouble is an enlargement of the
mucus membrane of the throat and it,
of .course, incapacitates him from
public speaking. Mr. Musgrove is both
a clever and popular young man and
welope the treatment he is receiving
from a specialist in Toronto will produce
favorable results. A convention will
be held on Friday, 14th inst., in Brus-
sels, to arrange for another candidate.
