son. A Beverly friend informs us
that air -slacked lime is a sure pre

method of using it, is to sprinkle

of one peck of lime to fifty bushels
of potatoes.
WITHOUT "Axl: o." -Mr. Mal-
com McCuaig had some half dozen
chopping axes in disuse since last
winter. They were in a box in his
shed. Ths other day, with a view
of getting out timber; M. McCuaig
sought his axes and found them
not. Some one had taken the axes
without "axing." There will be a
worse time than scissors or axes to
grind if Mac can only get minions
of the law on the parties whose
axiom is not of an axiopistical char-
acter.
ONT. ST. METH. CHURCH -Sun
day last Rev. Mr. Courtice, of Lon-
don, preached in this church to
large congregations. In the even•
ing he elaborated the pivotal idea
of Christianity, "Christ is the light
of the world." The text was eluci•
dated, as applied to the spiritual
world, by a series of admirable illus
trations drawn from the material
world. The material sun is not
oaly the s0uroe of light but of life.
It is the parent of the vegetation from
which has been formed the natural
gas, the petroleum and the coal
which have been boxed up in the
earth for ages and are now being
used to light and heat the world
and furnish the motive power for
our factories, steamships, railways,
etc. Christ ie the light of the world
in a spiritual sense as the sun is in
a material sense. And as nothing
in the material world, even the
smallest seed, is not beyond the
reach, sire and light of the sun, so
even the at -oiliest spiriteal seed is
not beyond the reach, care and light
of the Son of God. Tho discourse

TICKET Aoattms.-There was a
meeting in Montreal last week of
the Canadian Ticket Agents' Asso
elation. W. Jackson, of Clinton,
was elected auditor and R. Radcliffe,
Goderich, one of the executive com-
mittee which consists of five mem-
bers..
Goon Fon J. P. -In the spot ting
items of the Empire of Monday we
find the following : "The 'Varsity
second ants„ a Soots' reserve met
on the Ker street cricket grounds
on 'Saturday afternoon. The match
►exulted in a tie, each side scoring
two goals. For the 'Varsity Mc-
Callum, Revel and Doherty played
exceptionally well, while for the
Scote the half backs did very effec-
tive work. 'Varsity claimed a third
goal on Doherty'e head -in but it was
disallowed."
AN UNPRECEDENTED APPLE Ex-
poR'r.-Thhe Canadian apple crop
this season is said to be the ' largest
on record." However that may be,
the export of this branch of Cana-
dian produce has so far this fall
been unprecedentedly large. For
the week ending Sept. 30, the two
railway companies brought to Mon-
treal for export to Great Britain fif-
been thousand barrels. That was
just about the beginning of the ap•
ple shipping season, and the fifteen
thousand barrels did not include
those exported from the city. Since
that time the two companies have
been bringing over thirty thousand
barrels weekly for export and there
are no signs of the quantity dimin
ishing. The only thing to be regrett-
ed is that there will not be suffici-
ent steamship space before naviga-
tion closes to carry over Canada's
surplus apples. Every inch of avail-
able space has been taken and ship-
.naents to some ports are -being refus-
ed. The freight sheds on the
wharves are literally, packed with
barrels.- Witness.
THE BEST OF THE SEASON -This
was the remark passed by a young
lady who had heard about the Bane -
Caldwell concert to be held next
Friday night. Arrangements -1m
now complete and the sale of re-
served seats up to this time is larger
than ever before. This gives the
artists the satisfaction of knowing
that their program will be appreciat•
ed. Mrs Caldwell has been called
the prima donna of Canada and the
people of Clinton have no reason to
disbelieve it, for she is undoubtedly
the most beautiful singer we have
heard and no one who has a soul
within them could listen to her
without appreciation. Mr. Bane,
Guitarist, is highly spoken of by
such musical experts as Karl Mertz
and other celebrated musicians.
Miss Fisher and Mr. Bane will give
a couple of Instrumental duets that
we are sure will be appreciated.
Then Miss Cargill, that well known
elocutionist of high standing, will
render her new selections in her
usual good style. Plan of Hall

SHOOTING MATCH -The sixteenth
annual shooting match of the 33rd
Batalion Rifle Association was held
on the Seaforth range Monday' last.
There was a fair attendance of
marksmen, but the weather was very

and r ariable. This accounts for the
unusually low scores made. The

on the 10th i.nst., from erysipelas in
the face and head. He was an ex-
emplary young man and son of Mr.
John Stewart, of the Benmiller
Nursery. The funeral took place at
Benmiller on Monday of last week
and was largely atttended,
EDITOR .AFFRAY of the Galt
Reporter gave this office a call Tues-
day of last week. Though it was the
first time we Siw the gentleman we
felt quite well acquainted with him,
through his newspaper, helped
somewhat by the Gonhomie of
citizens James Hearn who accom-
panied him. Mr. Jaffray some
months back had a very trying time
and underwent a surgical operation
involving considerable danger, but
he appears physically robust now.
Hie mental calibre is reflected in
the columns of his reliable calmly
vigorous paper, one of the beet
weekly journals in the Dominion.
Mrs Jaffrey accompanied her hus•
band to Clinton and while here they
were the guests of their relatives
Mr.. and Mrs. James Hearn. They
had previously been visiting Mr.
and Mrs. Chas. Nairn at Goderich
and returned there from Clinton.
PIONEER PASSED AWA Y. The
Empire of Friday has an.interesting
account of the life of the late Mrs.
Mountcastle who died in Clinton
Octr. 6, aged 87 years. The de-
ceased and her late husband settled
in Huron county, about t.vo miles
west of what is now Clinton, in
1832. For nearly seven years past
she had been quite hel,Iless through
the bursting of a blood vessel on
the brain. In this state she re•
mained nearly seven years, the help-
less charge of her three unmarried
daughters, one of whom is Clinton's
wall -known artist and authoress,
Clara II. Mountcastle. Deceased
was the mother of 12 children.
Two were buried in the old country,
one in Dundas, one in Clinton and
three at the old homestead, Five
still survive, the remaining two be-
ing Mr. Mountcastle, of Dufferin
county, and Mrs. Smeltznr, of the
same place. Devoted to home,
husband and children, Frances
Laura Mountcastlo was ono whose
name should he handed clown in

Mn. J. W. GREEN, who has re-
cently been engaged on the Wiar-
ton Echo, was in town Saturday.
He had made arrangements for the
purchase of the Gorrie Vidette, but
the owner afterward concluded he
would not sell out. Mr. Green
has been strongly urged to start a
paper in Gorrie anyhow, but it is
not an encouraging locality for
even one. Mr. Green is a good
newspaper man.
A RATTLiNG GOOD CHORUS. -The

In them we place reliance

Until all England heare,

PLATS GLASS. -The demand for
plate glass for store fronts appears
to have assumed immense propor•
tions. Several times during the
summer we have had occasion to
note the passage through town of
wagons from London heavily laden
with these improved transparencies.
Saturday evening a team with
empty cases bearing the legend
"Hobbs Hardware Co., London,
Out,," stopped at the Ratteubury
House. On inquiry we found "the
man in charge" to be John R.
Crawford, representing the above
flame firm. He had just completed
the delivery of immense squares of
plate glass at Ifensall, Mitchell,
