We have decided not to -told our usual Millinery Openins this season. Many of our lady friends prefer to come and view our Millinety display at err leisure, rather than when there is such a crowd that standing room is at a remium. A great deal is expected from this store in the way of Millinery display, and of course there is jestification therefor, because season after season we've brought for you from the world's fashion centres, the choicest and best produc- t ons possible to secure. Misti Stewart has returned from a sojourn in the prin- cipal centres of fashion, and with a competent staff of assistants, has prepared for your inspection a large assortment of the latest designs in headgear. De- signers' views have taken_ a wider latitude this season, entering realms hitherto u touched, It is only natural, then, that our special creations would reflect the n w order of things. As with Millinery, so it is with Dress Goods, Silks, Tress Trimming; Zephyrs, Muslins, etc. As a matter of fact, all the new t ings are charming, fresh and eplendid looking. Come at any time and enjoyt t e showing to your heart's content. You need not spend a cent except you w nt to. Our Dress Goods department requires more than a passing notice. The n w lines we have just added to our stock in German boxcloths and broadcloths t at stand uniivalled for elegant tailonmade suits at $1, $1.25 and $1.50 per y rd, are without doubt the best value in the market. Also venetians, Cheviots, voiles, crepe de chene, eativas cloth, and- all the newest weaves in high toned d iess goods. 0 IT ID XNE 13 MR, I M MQKINNON & 00., BLYTH. ,he Bluff Explained. In 1900 it report from the Experimental Farm was published in THE EXPOSITOR, ani. created the firit demand for Fortnaldehyde. In 1901 keel Me. Willson tiAl myself tied a label with the picture of a beaver on it. In 1902 Mr. Wilson patented We picture of the beaver, and instead of nctifying me -which would have been the legal and gentle - m: nly way -he sent Mr. Hays, his s'olioitor, to bluff me into signing a paper, The day M . Hays came into my store, my assistant was sick, and I was entirely alone, which m ant that I was powerless to get out to see my solicitor, or get any. legal advice in the tter. He informed me that they intenled entering a criminal ease against me that day, w ich could not be Withdrawn from the high court, the only alternative being that I ould sign this paper and give him $10. He (Mr. Hays) gave me one hour to makeup In mind, but advised me, as a personal friend, to end the trouble in this way. I foolishly di so. When I got time to think the matter over, I considered it a most unjust affair fr m beginning to end, as before he patented the picture it was as much my own as his.

FEAR : Dear Sir, -I have coesidered the quettion in diaeute between yon arid Mr. Wilton. In my opieion he never could have. eneceeded against ycu by . taking criminal proceedings. To emceed even in having yeti fined fcr what is called a misde- meanor under the Acb, it would be neoeseary for him so thaw thab you used the Beaver Brand with intent to deceive'and to induce persons to believe that the article you were s lling was manufactured by Wilson. This you did not do. .A.9 soon as he registered the B aver Brand, and yen got notice of it, you ceased te use it That being so, he coold not h vo proved what the Act requires him to prove to make 5 os guilty of using the Beaver B and with intene to deceive. I am very strongly of the opinion that if ie was worth hile, you could tucoessfully maintein an action to compel Mr. WilEon and his solicitor to d liver up the document te which they got your signature. A determent obtains d in the m nner that this one was obttined, would be ordered by the Court' to be delivered up. If you had f ought my advice befcra yera signed the paper, you would not have signed it, n r could Mr. Wilson, in my opinion, have had you fined, because, as I stated before, I am sa iefied that whoa you did, did not make yOu_liable for the penalty imposed by the Act-.
