Sia.—In reference to Mr Rumball's letter of Oct. 20th, I would just say that I did not Exhibit any rigs at either Seaforth or Bayfield, neither did I give any person the liberty to use my name; further, 1 would say, the "ice buggy" Mr Rumball refers to took second prize, there being only two open buggies on exhibit at Seaforth. Besides, at Bayfield, the same "nice buggy" could not help but take first prize, when it was the only one of its class that was entered. , Mr Rumball is good enough to say. that I am a thor- ough practical workman, and I fully agree with him, for I never manufac- tured a rig like the "nice buggy" which had to be returned to the shop for re- pairs after its second trip. As already stated above, the insinuation as to my responsibility in the affair at Bayfield, li intixely groundless. Yours truly, E. HAYWARD. With reference to the above, I would say that Mr Hayward had nothing to do with the matter. :LPN BEATTY. 18 now in full swing.

John Hodgens A VALID OBJECTIONo CHEAP BOOTS and SHOES as usual Plurnsteel - Gibbingg • CZt. Oct. 16 91, To the Editor of the Glinton. New Era Sin.—I noticed in your last issue an account,of the payment of a sum of money by the"Court Pride of the West No.31C.O.F."to a lady who has recent- ly been deprived of her husband by death, the money so paid being in sat- isfaction of a life insurance according to a regulation governing the above order in such cases. Now, while no objection can be taken to a prompt fulfilment of the obligation arising in the case of a decease of a member, such being praiseworthy, a strong protest must be made against any secular institution connecting the name of the Almighty with their order. Is the Lord Jesus the "Great High Chief Ranger" of the organization in ques- tion? Is He their head? To any spiritually minded christian such a use of His adorable person is nothing else than rank profanity; in Scripture the blessed Lord is represented as head of the. church, 'which is His body, and no institution of human formation, how- -ever noble, or phlanthrophic its object, has any right to claim Him as its chief or head. Yours truly, SUBSCRIBER. ANSWER TO ENQUIRER. To the Editor of the New Era. would venture to answer En- quirer's question in this way. The Revised Version has it, "And be not fashioned according to this world or age." Thisi s plainer than "conformed," which word literally means to be like unto, or to be similar in import. St. Paul's words, therefore, are easy of in- terpretation. He is addressing Chris- tians, and leading them on step by step, argument by argument. He begins to sum u ' . • • . -.13- upon them, among otherthings, that they should not fashion themselves, or make themselves like unto this world, in so far as its evil is concerned. Ho likewise enjoins upon these same Chris- tians not to curse, not to praotise hy- pocrisy, not to render evil for evil, to live at peace with all men, etc., etc. The exhortation in 2d Corinthians is very similar in import. St. Paul is there addressing converts from idola- trous excesses, and he enjoins upon them, having such promises as he quotes in the verses your correspondent refers to, to cleanse themselves from all defilement of flesh and spirit. It must not be forgotten in these days, when people look for perfection in Christian people, that saints in St. Paul's days were sometimes guilty of the gravest sins. We are at times, owing to much erroneous teaching, apt to overlook this. Trusting this brief explanation may be in a certain degree satisfactory to your correspondent, I remain, yours truly, HEADER. Conservative papers, "we will get Carling back in his &tit place." "You are mistaken, there," remarked the gentleman spoken to; "I've worked for Carling in really an election be- fore, but let me tell you that he has had bis day, and he can't be elected in this city again, I know it, and you mark my words." PROPERTY CHANGE.—Mr Henry Cantelon has sold his dwelling house, at the nnrthern portion of the town, to Mr. William Robb, who has' been residing in town for some time. Mr Robb has got a desirable property at a reasonable ;Meer and we are glad that he ie to be a permanent resident. Mr Cantelon has for the time moved into the house,oweed by Mr Knox, on the corner of Rattenbury and Orange streets. Dr Gunn has bought the house owned by Mr W Ransford, on Rattenbury Street; it is centrally situated, and is purchasd at a fair price, COUNTY CLERKSHIP—The Comity Council, now in session, has appoint. ed Mt' W.

Mr Lane has had considerable expe- rience in dealing with public matters, being also Secretary of the Wawanosh Lawrence Oonlpaay, and Westauron Reform AStiottatiOn, and is in every reepeet thorolighly well qualified for the PoeitiOrt.

When you buy from a big stock, no matter what kind it is, you can always do better both in price and variety ; at least this has always been our experience when we buy from big wholesale houses. The bigger the business the less profits may be expected, and you can help us make the profits still smaller. Our business has for the last six years so rapidly increased that we have been fully justified in placing in our stores this season the large stock that we are now carrying, and to make it move rapidly, we are making the profits very small, confident that we will see a great many new customers who will find a stock of Clothing, and at prices that will not be seen out- side of any city.
