the name of Clinton Organ Co. Having
on hand a quantity of stook bearing the

number of organs bearing the old name
of Oakes Organ Co., but the public is
hereby cautioned against accepting any
organ bearing the name of G. F. Oakes,
as being of our manufacture, as no
snoh organs were manufactured by us.
Our Piano Case Organs are a huge
success, and are second to none on the
continent. Be sure and see them be-
fore buying any other. The CLINTON

FULLY RECOVERED.—The many
old personal and professional friends
of M. C. Cameron, Q.C., will be glad
to hear that he bas almost completely
recovered from a long and severe
attack of rheifmatism, and is now
able• to attend, his office and meet his
old friends, as usual.
SCHOOL BOARD. -At a special
meeting of the.Public School Board
on Tuesday, Miss McEwen was re-
engaged for Room No. 8, at a salary
of $25Q, and Miss Leslie engaged for
Room 9, at the same salary; (to re-
place Miss Holmes, who has s good
position at Wyoming.)
FOR THE ELECTORS.—Polling
places and deputy returning officers
for the municipal elections are as
follows :—St Andrews' Ward Town
Hall, W. H. Hine, deputy returning
officer; St James Ward, Chidley's
warerooms, T. Johnston, D. R. 0.;
St John's Ward, Rumball's shop, W.
H. Cooper, D. R. 0 ; St George's
Ward, Leslie's shop, J. C. Stevenson,
D. R. O. The election for school
trustee will take place at the same
time as the other
LICENSE COMMISSIONERS.—A meet-
ing of the West Riding License Com-
missioners was held here on Monday
to decide the question of granting a
shop license to Mr Geo. H. Parsons,
of Goderich. It seems that a license
was granted him last spring, but he
never took it out. Having an oppor-
tunity to dispose of his business, he
was desirous to take up the license
now. The Commissioners decided to
grant it, provided he paid the same
as if taken out in the spring,viz: $195.
Mr Parsons took his license and paid
the fee.
A WORN OF LOVE.—Some people
imagine that in Sabbath School
papers and story books are the only
places where acts of genuine charity
are to be found, but that there are
deeds of true charity in every day
life still is proved by this circum
statics, which we can vouch for, A
widow in this town had reached that
point when there was nothing what•
ever to eat within the house and
nothing with which to purchase
anything, when a gentleman came in
with a uaskei of miscellaneous pro-
visions, very soon after a couple of
hien came in with a saw and axe,
and i before they left had cut,
split and piled a load ofirwood that
bad been sent her. Such acts show
that humanity still has a heart that
is touched by sympathy.
GOOD SLEIGHING MAKES GOOD
TIMES. --This weather looks and feels
line the beginning of a genuine Ca-
nadian winter. Good. The climate
needs to improve upon its last imita-
tion of a native winter. In its youth
this year was mild and moist. The
early months of 1890 will be remem-
bered as .damp, disagreeable friends
to the doctors. True, the mild win-
ter is easy on the poor, but an absence
of snow impoverishes people in this
country. When snow is scarce money
is likewise. For reasons economic
and sentimental Canadians may long
for an old-time winter, that can make
up in strentth what it lacks in length.
Then, there is nothing like gond
sleighing to bring weddings to a head.
Doi No WELL.—Mr Robt. Herbi-
son, formerly of this'place, was last
year manager of the Saltcoats,N.W.T.,
Creamery, and that he managed it
well is evident from the follgoifing
references to the Creamery, in a
ret^ent issue of the Farmer's Advocate:
"The Saltcoats Creamery Company
opened their creamery in the month
of July, and alread, a good business
has been done.. It is evidently under
careful management, and should
prove a boon to the whole neighbor-
hood. " 'E * . * The Saltcoats
creamery is making from ten to
twelye hundred pounds of butter per
week from three hundred and fifty
cows. The quality produced is pro-
nounced by Winnipeg commission
men equal to the best in the North -
.West. The cream is gathered twice a
eek,and the circuit takes in a radius
twenty-fbe miles."

brigade in the Crimean war, but for
which not a man of the immortal'
"Six Hundred" would have returned

lines; he leaves a wife, bat no family.
NOTES.—Mr Ben Churchill has sold
his stallion, Norseman, imported last
summer, to his brother George, at a
good figure. The Toronto University
foot ball team played a match for the
championship, with Detroit, on
Thursday of last week; the Canadian
team won, and the only goal scored
by the Detroit team was won by Mr
Fred Corbett, of this town, Mra C.
Carline was laid up last week with
au attack of pleurisy, but is now bet-
ter. Capt. Edwards, of the Toronto
Life Saving Corps, wart in town last
week, disposing of a small book en•
titled "The Lifeboat;" he is heavily
loaded with medals given him for
bravery in saving life, and being
blind has taken this means of earning
a livelihood; he sold a large number
of copies, the price being 10 and 25
cents. •• A little more snow would
make better sleighing than we have.
Mr E. E. Wade, of Owen Sound, a
former Huronite, has been stripped of
Lis gown as a barrister, on account of
practises not only unbecoming a pro-
feasional man, but the opposite of
correct business principles; this is
unfortunate, as he was a brilliant
lawyer. Mr Malcom Douglass (bro-
ther of Miss M. Douglass, Clinton,)
is pushing his candidature for the
Woodstock mayoralty with vigor, and
will likely be elected. Mr Sam Notley,
one of the members of theLondon Fire
Brigade, and a well known Clintonian,
who lost a mother and sister-in-law
at Chicago, recently, by suffocation,
has been gone four weeks now, in
which time his comrades have heard
from him but once, and, they conse-
quently fear an accident has befallen
him. On Satprday afternoon Mr R.

riage of their sister—the last unmar-
ried member of the family—which
takes place to -day. Mr Wheatley,
tax collector,lhas about half the taxes
collected already. Mr Will McKowen
has gone to Uxbridge to work, where
his brother-in-law, Mr F. Bakes, late
of Woodstock, has charge of the key
making department of the Uxbridge
Organ Factory. Mise Amelia Plum-
mer (daughter of Mr S. Plummer)
who is at present teaching in the
Georgian Bay district, has been en-
gaged for one of the schools in To-
ronto, duties to commence with the
January term. Mr Jos. Chambers,
of Berlin, who hat' been laid up sick
for several weeks, is now able to be
out, and is taking a rest at his home
here. Mr W. S. Lawrence intends
to secure a house near his school for
the winter, and will move thereto; it
will be much more convenient than
walking in and out as he does at
present. Miss Anna Irwin left on
Wednesday morning for the Southern
States Mr Jos W Riter received a
telegram on Tuesday, informing him
'of the death of his father, which oc-
curred at Clearwater, Man. The
Toronto Mail, of Saturday. gives an
account of a debate at the University
on "Imperial Federation" the up-
holders tbereof being J. M. Godfrey,
formerly of Clinton Collegiate; and
John A. Cooper, of this town, deci-
sion being given in their' favor. Mr
A. Weir has opened a store in Searle
block; his advertisement appears in
another column. Mrs R. Logan is
confined to her room Ly illness. Mr
Swartz has purchased a handsome
Doherty Piano, which like all instru-
ments corning from this establish-
ment, is first-class in every respect.
Reeve Macmurchie, we regret to say,
is not recovering as his friends would
like to see him do, but we hope he
may take a favorable turn. W.
Doherty & Co have received another
foreign order for organs, this time
from Melbourne, Australia; this firm
is certainly able to hold its own in
any of the foreign markets of the
world. Mr W. Keys, egg dealer, is
still unable to attend to business, but
has nearly fully recovered from his
late illness. Sandy McKenzie has
had a peculiar smile on his face of
late ; on enquiring we find he has
furnished his parlor with a beautiful
Piano case Doherty organ, which he
says is more than a delight in its ex-
quisite joy. Mr James Anderson has
been laid up with l ongestion of the
lungs, but is improving. It is
rumored that a law suit is likely to
take place between a couple of well-
known fruit dealers unless amicably
settled. Mr Joseph Taylor, of Tor-
onto, (son of W. Taylor, Clinton) has
been laid up for a couple of week$
with an attack of typhoid fever. Mr
F. G. Peto, accountant Molsons Bank
bas tendered his resignation, to take
effect about the 15th inst., he thinks
of going to British Colnmbia, where
he expects to better himself. The
office for Fair's mill is nearly com-
pleted, and reflects credit on all who
have had anything to do with it;
the plastering done by Mr John Croll
is a particularly nice piece of work,
being surmounted by a plaster -of•
paris link moulding, in imitation of
wooden moulding, which is something
new, chaste and unique. Miss Ship-
ley, who has been ill for some time
is now out of all danger. Clinton has
lost another of its favorites in the
marriage of Mies Nellie Hearn,which

Mr Edge will be in hie own pulpit
on Sunday next, but for the three
following Sundays he will be away.
Under the auspices of theW.C.T,U,
a public meeting was held in the town
hall, on Sunday evening last, after
the churches were out, The Rev. A.
Stewart,t presided, and practical tem-
perance addresses were given by Revs
Messrs Hinoks and Osborne.
West Presbyterian Church, Toron-
ton, has unanimously decided to ex-
tend a pall to the Rev J. A. Turnbull,
of St. Marys. Mr Turnbull is a ron-
in -law of Mr John Steep, Clinton,
and got his early training at Clinton
Collegiate Institute.
BAPTIST CHURCH ANN1 V ERSARY—
Three sermons will be preached on
Sunday next, morning and evening
by-theRev W. H. Huston, M. A.,
Principal of Woodstock College, and
in the afternoon at 3 o'clock by Rev.
A. Stewart, Minister Presbyterian
Church. On Monday evening, a lec-
ture entitled "Woman" will be de-
livered by Rev J. A. Osborne, Pastor,
commencing at 8 o'clock.
Rev J. Edge has received a unani-
moue invitation to accept the pastor-
ate of North street Methodist church,
Goderieh, next year, and has accept-
ed the same, subject to the action of
the Stationing Committee. Should
the Conference ratify this invitation,
the people of North street will have
no occasion whatever to regret their
choice. So popular is Mr Edge, that
several other important charges have
their eyes upon him.
The annunal meeting of the officers
and teachers of Rattenbury street
Sabbath School, was held on Tuesday
evening. Mr Foster expressed a
desire to be relieved from the duties
of superintendent, and the names of
Messrs Lough and Holmes were pro-
posed as substitutes, but both these
parties refused to accept the office,
and Mr Foster was re-elected to the
position that he has ably filled for the
past two years. The remaining of-
ficers of the school were re-elected
the same as last year.

NOTICE !
Our stock is still complete with all the newest goods, having
recently reordered all lines sold out. In
�R.. a-ooDs
C.A.A.A—The bills for this enter-
tainment are out, and our citizens
may look for something good on Dec.
19th; all arrangements are completed,
and everything will be given in a
creditable manner on that date. Spe-
cial seats will be reserved for ladies
without escorts, so the ladies may all
rest assured of getting good seats. No
delays whatever will occur between
pieces, as tho entire company and or-
chestra remain on the stage till the
end of the first part. Plan of hall is
at Jackson Eros., where seats may
be secured.
DESERVED—Those who knew Mr
J C Linklater, formerly of the Model
School here—and his friends are not
few— will be glad to know that the
Gananoque Model School Board has
re-engaged him for next year, at$900,
thus increasing his present salary by
$]00. Mr Linklater has proved him-
self a highly successful teacher, but a
valuable helper in the Christian work
of the town, and the extra salary,
which was granted unsolicited, will
doubtless be a pleasing proof to hire
that his services are appreciated.
RETURNED.—AbnerCosens, (form-
erly of Tuckersmith) who during the
three years he was absent in Aus-
tralia, contributed a number of very
cleverly written letters to the NEW
ERA, arrived home last week, and
expects to make Canada his future
place of residence. He left Mel-
bourne early in September, the trip to
London, Eng., occupying six weeks
and after a short stay there, carne
direct home. He looks well after
his long trip and absel re, and on the
whole enjoyed his experience there,
but concludes that "Canada is plenty
good enough for him."
ORANGE—By advertisement it will
be seen that the professional firm of
Reeve &Turnbull has been dissolved,
the former retiring, and the latter
continuing to practice here. Dr
Reeve, who is one of the oldest prac-
titioners in town, has bought out a
practice in Toronto, which he believes
will be easier for him in his advancing
years than so much outside practice,
and will move his family to that city
about the beginning of the year. Dr
Turnbull will no doubt receive a con-
tinuance of the liberal practice which
the firm has enjoyed
WITH THE OLD TIMERS. — The
event of the season promises to be the
Married Men's Social, on Tuesday
evening next. Everything is to be
done by the benedicts. The refresh-
ments will be fine, the program extra,
and a jolly good time will be spent.
Messrs Thos Jackson, sr, Jas How-
son, sr, John Croll, J C Stevenson, H
R Walker and others will participate
in the program. Mr Brewer will favor
the audience with some readings, as
also will others. There should be a
turn out of 500 easily, to enjoy such
au evening.
CHRISTMAS ADVERTISING.— This
is the time of the year in which the
mind of the energetic merchant turns
towards securing a share of the
Christmas trade. The month of
December and wintry weather have
arrived, and it will be unnecessary
to remind dealers of the propriety of
announcing their readiness to die -
pose of seasonable goons. But three
weeks remain between now and
Christmas, and, as in former year,,
this will no doubt be the time in
which the winter supplies and holi-
day goods of any families and in-
dividuals if be purchased. Good
sleighing bring many from the
surrounding country with the pro.
duce of their farms, and naturally a
busy period is looked for. Those
desiring to purchase goods of any
description should consult the col -
umns of the Npw ERA, and dealers
who have not made special announce-
ments of their holiday goods should
take advantage of the large weekly
edition to place themselves among
those who are ready. for the rush,
