•• CHISELHURST
•NORTH HURON GOES LIBERAL
After one of the moat bitter fac-
tional political contests in the history
of North Huron; Mr. W. H. Fraser,
Liberal, a farmer of Morris township
was elected in Monday's bye -election
for the Legislature by a majority of
1,203. The total vote polled by Mr.
Fraser was 3.090, only 139 less than
the combined votes of his two oppon-
ents. Dr. T. E. Case, who had the
Government ersdorsation, came second
with 1,887, and Mr. George Spotton,
the Independent Conservative, was
third with 1,342.
The election wag peculiat in the
fact that none of the candidates had
a platform, and that the successful
contestant, Mr. Fraser, held no
meeting, whatever, during the en-
tire campaign., and all -his efforts were
concentrated on personal canvassing.
The election of Mr. Fraser was large-
ly due to the farmers, who compose a
large part of the electorate in the
riding, although even in Wingham, the
, principal town in. the constituency he
polled a very conSiderable vote.
With the exception of the west-
ern end of the riding, the farmers
almoet solidly supported Mr. Fraser.
He polled a larger vote in the six
• townships than t*Dr. Case and Mr.
Spotton together. In his own town-
ship of Morris, where, as a member
of the Council for seven years, he
bad become afvorably known. he
received hearty endersation, polling
520 votes. West Wawanosh, in
which Dungannon, Dr, eased home
town, is located, and Ashfield, the
adjoining township, polled large
votes for the Government candidate.
-Many Liberals in those two town-
ships supported Dr. Case on per-
sonal grounds.
The Independent Conservative
candidate, Mr. Spotton, polled .his
largest vote in Wingliam. This was
ae expected, as he had lived there
for the last fifteen years, has been
Mayor twice, and at present owns a
business college. Mr. Spotton
stumped the riding from one end
to the other many times in the last
few years for the Conservatives, and
he was depending to a large extent
on this acquaintanceship to elect
him. At two pulls in Ashfield town-
ship Mr. Spotton failed to get a sin-
gle vote.
Mr. Fraser, who is Reeve of the
Mortis Council, has been active in
farmers work for a number of years.
His appeal during the contest ha'
• been to the agricultural section of the
• community. For the last four years
he has been engaged in Farmers' In-
stitute work. Mr. Fraser is a quiet,
-
reserved roan. He, was born on the
farm on which he now resides. In
'his canvassing appeals the one thing
which Mr. Fraser laid stress on was
that if elected. he would do all in his
wer to bring pressure te bear on
V.e.• Govertinient to eecure a greater

• the ordinary person as a rule, has but little knowledge of dyeing
and the natural laws that must be followed if satisfactory results are
to be obtained when redyeing a garment. In fact the ordinary cus-
tomer is very liable to demand that a light color he dyed over a
darker one and to be somewhat skeptical of the particular dyer's abil-
ity when she is told that it can't be done.
,, "The following information win be of some help to you in deciding
what color to have your garments dyed,
"Goods containing yellow, such is brown, tan or orange should
be dyed dark brown, dark green, plum or black. 'They do not dye good
•bine.
"Blue, gray, and taupe, take dark blue, red, burgundy, plum, green
or;black. Faded gray or taupe does not cover well in darker shade of
same color and should be made one of the above colors, or a dark
brown. Blue will not dye brown, nor brown blue.
14 "Corduroys do not, as a rule, make nice black, but do make nice
coif*. Checked garments should never be dyed black, but can be
made dark blue, green or brown.
'Hard woven goods that are faded do not cover well in any color
but: black, Soft- materials such as, velours, when not too badly faded,
can be covered in one of the darker shade's.
"Made over garxnents, that have contained pleats, if faded, must
always be dyed black. White serges that are sunburned can- only
be dyed black.
"Buttons,buckles and fancy trimmings should always be removed.
It is also advisable to let out hems of sleeves and skirts to provide
for shrinkage, which sometimes occurs. No dyer can keep goods from
shrinking, if they .are inclined to do so, no matter how careful he is in
dyeing.
"Don't have cottons, shoddy or loaded silk dyed -they are not
worth it: All goods taken for dyeing are accepted only at owner's
risk. We are as careful as it is possible to be and when goods break
or tear from cause beyond our control, we canna accept responsibility."

make of record without using an y attachments Or

includes the ULTONA, the new invention. that, bY
the mere turn of a hand plays perfectly both lat-
eral and vertical cut records. This improvement
is on all three large models.
The Brunswick all wood -throat and sound cham-
ber -built like a- violin -with the "ULTONA°
combine to set up new stanclards,of tone -giving
to each record played, a purity, power and faith-
fulness beyond all previous attainment.
