BILLING THE TOWN.—Mr, Wesley Webb, of London, was in Clinton last IW onday billing the town for a lecture in the town hall on the 21st inst., by J. H - McConnell, of Windsor, on "Protes- t ants and Politics." Mr. McConnell is said to be a very able speaker. ONE OF THE BEST—A CREDIT.— The Exeter Advocate says :—"A clean, newsy and well edited sheet is Tme C LINTON NEWS -RECORD and is one of the best weeklies on our exchange list. It now appears in a new dress of type and is a credit to the publisher, as also to the town in which it is pub- - fished. We congratulate you, Bro. Todd, and our wish is that you may continue in prosperity." SHOOTING SPORTS.—Last Wednes- day a happy shooting:party consisting of Messrs. R. Walker, N. Fair, L. Kennedy, Agnew, Henderson, Morrish and Gibbings were taken to the country behind the "old grey mare." Several hours were spent, but the game refused to come within reach, except a squirrel or two. The party had a most enjoy- able time and returned weary and toot sore. We intend using it, to display the Bargains : we will offer from week to week. This week we will Iarket Baskets, HOME AttAIN.—We were pleased to. see the smiling countenance of Mr. I. Cantelon in our midst once more, he having arrived home after a lengthy stay in the Northwest.

TO SEAFORTH,—The Misses Buchan an, Gibson and Jackson, were guests of Mrs. (Dr.) Beldon, Wednesday last.— Miss McKechnie of Clinton, spent Sun- day last in town, the guest of Mrs. Geo. E. Henderson.—Seaforth Sun. BUSINESS VIM AND ENTERPRISE.— The Acton Free Press says :—"THE CLINTON NEWS -RECORD appeared last week in a splendid new dress of type, manifesting clearly the enterprise and business vim of the proprietor. ORGANIZING.—Mr. Thos. Jackson, D. D., assisted by Bros. Watts and Rob- son, of Clinton, and others, organized a Sons of England Benevolent Society in Wingham on Friday evening week. The lodge starts off with a good charter list, and is to be known as Tor- quay Lodge, No. 191. Ammar RAFrz.Es.—The new criminal code makes the following provision about raffles :—Every one is guilty of an offence and liable on summary con- viction to a penalty of 820 who buys, takes or receives any lot, ticket or other device for advancing, lending, selling or otherwise disposing of property by lots, tickets or any mode of chance whatever. AND STILL THEY COME.—It will be a pleasure for our readers to know that THE NEWS-REOORD is being compli- mented as a first-classapper in every respect from one end oftheDominion to the other. Last Thursday the To- ronto Daily World gave us a good quarter column send-off. We mention the fact briefly so that our readers will know of our wide fame and the increas- ing popularity of THE NEWS -RECORD. SUMMER IN AUTUMN.—The weather this fall has been something remark- able and partakes more of the nature of June weather than of October and November. Never has there been a better season for getting fall work done. Turnips, which at one time threatened to be a poor crop, have im- proved greatly durink the last month and are now turning out. ,well. •'A wonderful Fall" is the general exclama- tion. THE LosT FOUND.—Mr. Abel S. Weeks has been found. He has been located at Calgarry and the sighing of the handsome maids of Clinton will find relief in the following to THE NEWS -RECORD :—"Enclosed please find amount for arrears on my paper up to the time it was stopped. I have been away in the wilderness since May and so did not know of it being stopped." Again it goes. These bachelors we must keep posted in the ',wilderness." KINDLY WORK.—Mr. Wrn. Spindler has been confined to his bed for about twenty weeks with an abscess of the lungs. He underwent an operation the other day and seems to be improv- ing. Unfortunately the sick man is in poor circumstances. Mr. Wrn. Smith- son took round a subscription list and has succeeded in raising considerable money to relieve the distress. Kind- ness and money in time of need through sickness is humane indeed. AN OUTSIDE OPINION,—Newspaper men are an observant class of people and generally speak from personal observation. Every editor reads all the papers within a radius of several hundred miles. The editor of the Blyth Standard, a young man who is working his way to the front, says :—"THE NEWS- RECORD, of Clinton, looks gay in its new dress. Mr. Todd's persistent energies in the interest of his paper and the town of Clinton should be heartily encouraged by every citizen and business man in the town. There are a number of town weeklies north of London that may make bigger pre- tenses but are "not in it" with THE NEws-RECORD." ONE OF THE BEST IN THE PROVINCE —LIBERAL BUSINESS MEN. -The At- wood Bee speaks of THE NEWS -RECORD in very,.complimentary terms when it says :—"THE CLINTON NEWS -RECORD has put on a new dress of brevier type, and looks quite cute and attractive in it. The get-up of THE NEws-RECORD of late is creditable to the publisher, every issue setting forth his inarked ability and commendable enterprise. Not only is THE NEWS -RECORD the ackno*led ed leading Conservative organ of Huron county, but it is like- wise one of the best newspapers pub- lished in the Province, which is saying a lot. One fact must be recognized in connection with the prosperity of the Clinton papers, and that is the very 'liberal and continued patronage ex- tended to them by the business men of that town." REV. Jos. EDGE CALLED TO TORONTO. —The.Acton Free Press thus speaks of a popular minister formerly of the On. tarso Street Methodist Church, Clinton : —The Rev. Joseph Edge, pastor of the Methodist Church here, has received a unanimous invitation to McColl Street Church, Toronto. The invitation has been accepted, subject to ratification by the transfer and stationing com- mittees. While congratulations upon a. call to so important a charge are ggen- eral, much regret will be felt at Rev. Mr. Edge's removal from Guelph Con- ference. He has always been a useful member of the Conference and has filled all official positions to which he has been from time to time elected with Much satisfaction. However, Mr. Edge entered the ministry and was ordained in the old Toronto Conference, and if be returns it will be merely going hack Home. His term at Acton expires next Jtttie. Slaughter, JAS.

BEESLEY & Co. A DRUG CLERK'S MISTAKE.—T. A. Mara, of T. A. Mara & Co., general merchant, London, died early Tuesday morning froni the effect of an overdose of morphine taken for a cold in mistake for quinine. It is alleged that a drug clerk in filling the prescription made the fatal mistake, A daughter of Mr. Mara's also took a dose of the medicine, and was for a time in great danger. T. A. Mara was for years a prominent merchant in Galt, and for some time conducted a dry goods business in the store now occupied by Gilroy & Wise- man, Clinton. CLEAN, NEWSY AND WELL EDITED. —The Walkerton Herald, the long es tablished and well conducted Bruce pioneer paper, refers to our feeble efforts in this complimentary way :— "'1HE CLINTON NEWS-RECORD—one Of the best of our local exchanges—carne to hand last week decked out in a bran new suit of body type. The people of Clinton and of the county of Huron are to be congratulated on the possession of such a clean, news and well edited paper as THE NEWS -RECORD." OREGON VISITORS.—Mr. Charles A. Hanley and wife, of Oregon, are visiting in this section. Twenty years next month Mr. Hanley and bride left this section to seek their fortunes and have succeeded pretty well. Mr. Hanley is a farmer and owns 190 acres of land. The winters are so mild that he has had hut three sleigh rides in twenty years. Grains and fruits grow in abundance and of course he like the country well. On his return Mr. Hanley finds wonder- ful changes in this prosperous and pro- gressive. section. Infants have grown to men and women, while removals and deaths have as well caused many and many a, change. Substantial new build- ings have replaced many old ones and many a vacant lot is now covered with handsome structures. Mr. John Hanley, brother of George, town, is the visitor's father. The lady and gentleman will spend a month or two among friends in this section. FROM A. REFORM POINT OF VIEW.— The Brussels Post remarks :—"THE CLINTON NEWS -RECORD looks very nobby n its new fall suit, Bro. Todd is doing well and we wish him success. Honestly though, A. M., you should haul in your sign board 'Independent in all things—Neutral in nothing,' as it is a little off. If you'd insert 'inde- pendent' where you have 'neutral' you'd hit it." Our good friend, Bro. ICerr, is looking through the specs. THE NEWS -RECORD warned him to avoid a few weeks ago. The Post's motto is , well, it hasn't found one, but kankers strongly after Mr. Laurier and Sir Oliver Mowat. The Post is not very "independent" in politics, although a good local pa- per. THE NEWS -RECORD don't pretend to suit everybody. When we do we hope to vacate the sacred chair. The Post, like the lawyer, beats the "old fellow" round the stump. We him meet With a hold:and square front. That's the difference. RESULT GREAT SACRIFICE OF THE FINEST RANGE OF GOODS -ARE SOLD BY AUCTION. One of the most sensational failures of the present season is the above, and never before has there been such a fine collection of goods put into an auction room to. be sold REGARDLESS OF COST. We' were heavy buyers ; a large quantity of these goods were in the original cases, never having been opened.

We mark our goods down to a bare -living profit and have but one price. We do not advertise any big Discount Sale to draw trade, for every intelligent person knows what that means. When a firm advertises in that way it is quite easy to understand what they do. They simply add to their regularprioe the percentage that they intend to take off. This is a fact that has been proven in the so-called great discount sales. If you want any Furniture call on us. We have the best assort- ment in the County to choose from and our prices are as low as the lowest, putting this stock into shape and in a few days we will announce the finest and greatest sale of goods ever seeu in this section.
