ABOUT MEASURING WOOD. -Now that fall is here and winter close to hand, wood ie beginning to move. The great majority of wood consum- ers are firm in the opinion that all wood offered for sale on the market should be meaeured and marked by an authorized officer. Selling and buying wood by the load at random ie as a rule very unsatisfactory to both buyer and seller. Wood should be measured and sold and bought by measure only.

K., never was better fitted or pleased in my life." OUR BOARD of TRADE.. --About three years ago a Board of Trade was organized in Clinton for the purpose of advancing the town's best interests. A working com• mittee was formed, and for a time groat interest was manifested in all that pertained to the welfare. of Clinton. What has become of this Board, or what have they accow- plished? THE NEws•REco0D looks back over a space of two years and fails to find any public record of advancement. And we fail to find any on the part of our local Board at the time of the late representa• tive meeting in England. Clinton, with rich surroundings, her unex• celled railway facilities, her splen• did educational, manufacturing, and banking institutions is a great business centre and should afford con- siderable food for thought for a real live Board of Trade. We have a,very good town council, a low rate of taxation consequent upon small indebtedneee. All thie should help to induce capitalists and other manufacturing concerns to locate here. Other towns, less favored, offer direct monetary inducements. THh NEws RECORD would like to see a progressive Board of Trade in the town of Clintor4. If the old one Bleeps this is a gentle remind- er to wake up and go to work. What our whole people desire is to forge tho town ahead. ddlttoINal Lon1s jioNEY Loer.-Ou Sept. 29th Thos.

TIIE ESTATE OF JOHN RODGERS, One of the finest displays ever made in Western Ontario in the dry - goods line wan made by the Estate of John Iiodgens on Saturday last, This firm spared no pains to make their fall opening a success and as they have an immense stuck, and a splendid store to show it in, they made a great show and one that was appreciated by all people. In their show window facing Albert street they had a complete line of gents furnishings; in that facing the mare ket they had a very pretty dress with hats millinery, furnishings etc. ; in their Rattenbury street windows they displayed millinery goods and heavy dress goods. Inside to the left were piled sample pieces of Scotch, English and Canadian made tweeds, overcoatings, printings, ,t•c., and above to the ceiling was shown a large variety of furs. 7'o the right were stacks of mantle -cloths, seal- ettes, linens which were imported direct from Belfast, and towellings. In the show room were shown some lovely pieces of dress good.;, beauti- ful dresses made up, and more than all,handsowe hats and bonnets which made the husbands smile. The display of millinery was splendid and reflects great credit and shows dainty taste on the part of the persons who con- duct this important department. Up stairs an elaborate display of carpets, curtains, &o., and in another department was shown house furn- ishing for which this firm are so well known. Everybody was delighted with what they saw and with the courteous manner in which they were received and entertained by the Estate. BEESLEY AND COMPANY. Beesley's Millinery Emporium, througbout the afternoon and even- ing was thronged with visitors eager to view the new styles of headgear, exh,bited in such elaborate profu- sion in their epacious show room. Millinery is Mr. Beesley'a great specialty and in that line he carries one of the largest and most varied stocks to be found in Ontario, while in quality of goods and tastefulness of trimming it is not surpassed by houses even in the great cities. Every article is a gem of beauty, the shapes are so numerous and the colors so 'rich and varied and so artistically blended that any face or any complexion could not fail to be suited to perfection by some of the multitudinous designs. Mr. Bees- ley's "opening" can only be fittingly described as a brilliant success and the lalies of Clinton and vicinity are to be congratulated upon having in their own town a store so admirably equipped as "The Ladies' Favorite Eslktblishment." PLUMBTEEL AND GIBBING,. The Dry Goods busines carried on under the firm of Plumsteel & Gibbings was established in the year 1887, in Searle's Block, where it was successfully parried on until the premises because too small for their business.

The firm employ a large number of hands.- The store is completely fitted with a first class . stock of goods, second to none in the County. This firm carries such a large assortment of goods in the different departments that it is not possible to enumerate the different classes. The firm advertised that they would not hold their millinery opening on let Oct., on account of a presa of ordered work. However, with an effort and getting extra help they did have an opening which was a grand success. The ladies and a great throng of people were well pleased with the exhibit. The firm desire to return thanks to their numerous friends for their visit and trust that by k,peping first class goods and new prices they will be able to keep in the front rank.

In ladies coats and wraps they have a very large and rich, stock, being imported from the latest German centres of styles in these goods. The fit and finish in these goods is simply perfect. 'there is in this store all kinds of drapery and housefurnishings. There is a great galaxy of carpets, curtains, window blinds, curtain poles, art muslins, art -•drapery, and everything new. Their stock is among the finest.
