Fraser Would Run as .Liberal in North Huron A taitfy"weli attended meeting of the Li) erals of North Ilurun was held in the town hall. 1'Vineham, on Tuesday after- noon. The resignation of Mr. King was accepted, and many leading Liberals ex- pnseed satisfaction that he had decided to not be the means of an election. Two nutnes were brought before the meeting, viz. that of John N. McKenzie of Ashfield and W. II. Fraser, reeve of Morris. The former withdrew but we understand that • • the latter has decided to remain in the campaign. Wounded for North Time Mrs. C. G. VanStcrue has received offic- ial word that her husband Capt. Van - is Buffering with bullet wound in leg. ' Breaks We Leg Mr. Robt. Musgrove met with an un- fortunate accident on Tuesday morning by break•ng his leg below the knee. He was walking across Mr. John King's yard ih Bluevale when he twisted his leg and it broke. Mr. Musgrove was working in the bush on Monday and remembers striking the same leg heavily against a log and it is. possible that it was slightly fractured there, Whitetail' ' arble and Granite Works Having sold the Wingham marble busi- ness I have a number of fine Old Country granite monuments to dispose of before giving possession. These monuments were purchased before the high increase in prices and will be sold at reasonable prices. Intendrne purchasers should see this stock and make a selection as this will be the last chance for some time of securing Old Country granite. On account •tifeelifbiculty in transportation from Nor- way and Swed n to Aberdeen, Scotland, and scarcity of labor in Aberdeen it is almost impossible to purchase granite monuments. Purchasers should not de- lay as the time is short for erecting monu- ments this season. Granite monuments not sold will be movedaway shortly. THOS.' JonNsToN, Prop.

EXHIBIT AT THE PAIR If you have anything that is listed in the prize list of the Wingham Fall Fair enter it for exhibition. The premium list is, on the whole, ahead of any in these parts. If you have not a prize list ask the secretary, A. G. Smith, to mail you one. It is the last fair of the season and can easily be made the best. The prize list is not the only, nor even the main inducement for exhibitors. It may be taken for granted that every producer is anxious to produce the best in his particular line One of the greatest aids he can have in so doing is the chance to see his own produce beside that of others. This opportunity is offered in no other way so well as through exhibiting at the fair. If your potatoes, your apples, your chickens, horses, sheep, cattle, or any products of yours, are placed side by side with those of your neighbors you have an opportunity to compare them with the best the district affords. Not only do you have the opportunity to com- pare them yourself, but through the awarding of the prizes you get an expres- sion of opinion by the judges, who are experts in their departments If your entries win, you know that you are work- ing along right lines, If you are beaten, you have the knowledge that you must change your methods. If you cannot see just why you were beaten make an opportunity to talk to the judge. This does not mean that you should vent your spleen on him. If you feel that you are aggrieved, the show rules offer a right and proper method of enter- ing a protest. The best thing for the ex. hibitor to do is to approach the judge+as a seeker after knowledge, assuming—and the assumption will be found correct - that the judge is a fair-minded man, wilting to give reasons for his findings.

The unmusical, metallic phonograph qualities to which we have been accustomed so long, seem to he entirely eliminated in the Brunswick phonograph. The vocal records particularly have a sweet full rich- ness of sound with the very vibrancy of life. I was of course, particularly inteeested in the reproduc- tion of my own records on the Brunswick, and can truth- fully say that I have never heard them played as nearly lifelike on any other instrument. Particularly in my re- cording of "Beautiful Isle of Somewhere," the Brunswick phonograph brings out the shadings that I never knew were possible in a reproducing instrument. It hardly seems possible that it could be the same record. Yours very truly, Harold Jarvis. Come in and hear the Brunswick at the store of J. WALTON Mek1B8ON The Horne of the Brunswick.
