bushel. This is extraordinary good
Weight for this year.

Rapers mentioned last week that Mr

out the Commercial hotel, of this

satisfactory agreement, it will be

EVERYBODY CANHAVE IT.—We are
offering the NEW ERA to the 31st of
December, 1892, for 25 cents cash.
Surely there is no person that will
have the face to borrow their neigh-
bor's paper when they can become a
subscriber for licents a week. The
white paper itself is worth that money.

KEEPING TO THE FRONT.—The com-
pletion of the Mackay Block will
snake our front street one of the best
in the cbunty. If some one would
only build up the Dinsley corner the
street would be complete. It is grati-
fying to observe too that most of the
stores and buildings are occupied. It
is not probable that any of our towns
will ever be large cities, but Clinton is
bound from its location and other ad-
vantages to remain in the front.
SCHOOL OPENING. — The Public
..sehool opened_ Menclay with an at-
tendance of about 400. The truant of-
ficer will soon be on his rounds to see

the rooms has been very much improv-
ed. The teachers were all at their

good work will be done. The model
students commence work on Thursday.
The opening talks were given by In-
spector Robb and Principal Lough.

order, and the,membership is larger
than it ever has been. The usual three
. days are being crowded into two, but
there will be no abridgement of any of
the usual attractions. If two days
prove sufficient it will be a great sav-
ing of time and work. The whole aim
this year is to have a genuine exhibi-
tion of products and industries, and a
friendly, but keen, competition
amongst exhibitors. Everyone hav-
ing anything on the list worth show-
ing should get it ready.

• To TORONTO ON A BICYCLE IN A
DAY.—If the pioneers who fifty years
ago packed or carted their limited
supplies into thelluron tract, had been
told that fifty years hence it would be
possible for a man to propel himself on
a machine over those same roads at a

they would have certainly considered
hiim insane, but now it is frequently
done, and we are still looking for some-
thing faster. A. T. Cooper and G. F.
Emerson were the first cyclists from
this town to attempt a trip to Toron-
to, starting between four and five
o'clock on Wednesday morning of laat

Breslau for dinner, proceeding on
through Guelph to Georgetown for
tett, then on through Brampton to
Cooksville, which they reached short-
ly after nine. They were there over-
taken with rain, which had threatened
all day, and were compelled to defer
the completion of their trip until
• Thursday morning, which they did in
a heavy rainstorm. The boys claim
that they reached Cooksville feeling.
fresh, and would have went through
that night had not the severe ram -
storm prevented. A strong east wind
prevailed all day, which must haVe
sortairdy retarded their progress.

TO YOUNG MEN
Whatever in this world there is of unhappiness
lies in a great measure at the door of our disre-
gard for the feelings of others, and while ear-
nestly pushing business we endeavor to avoid

ings. Keeping this in view, we wish to say a
few words to the young men. Numbers of
youthful manhood will no doubt be purchasing.
ew Fall Suits,
And it is these young men that are at present
addressed, particularly those who propose enter-
ing the sacred precints of matrimony, which,
from the abundance of crops, will be numerous
this season. We do not presume to say what
course you are to pursue,young Men, but you find
the young lady and "We will do the rest." Simply
see our range of
Fine Suitings at

so, to this advertisement. "He may take the
hint" and you become our life time patroness.
