who had simply seen their newspaper

A. M. Todd attended a County Orange

time during the summer, Mr Bawden,
of Exeter, mule an offer for 20 acres of
the Bache estate; near here the old
G, W. R. station stood, and the offer
having been accepted; Mr E.N. Lewis,
of Goderich (Mr Bawden'slegal adviser)
was in town in connection with the
deal, on Tile ;day, it is intended to sell
the property in lots. The members of
the 25 club went to Seaforth on Tues-
day evening, to a social gathering.
Dr. Bigsby, of Detroit,gave an ad-
dress before the Collegiate pupils, on
Friday afternoon, entitled"Rugby and
Dr. Arnold." Tom Carling. though
yet, weak, will undertake an auction
sale in Goderich township, on the 20th,
but, will have Mr James Howson, a
veteran, to help him. It is said that
there bave been more social gatherings
in Clinton, during the present winter,

ordinary wire fencing, although only a
trifle more costly. The horizontal
' strands are interwoven with perpen-
dicular ones, thus making at once a
strong and neat fence, through which
nothing can pass. Messrs Stanley &
Steep are agents for it.
HOTISES.--Mr George Cox the well
known horse buyer of Detroit, was
- herealast week. Asked as to the state
of the horse market, he said;—"I don't
know that I shall buy it horse this trip
at all; the market on the other side
is worse than it is here, and that's bad
e enough." A NEw ERA representative
was speaking too, gentlernan the other
day, who had been in the horse busi-
ness when it was flush, who said "1
tell yon what, times are different now;
why 1 took a load of horses to Dakota, andjust dpubledogrmoney on them;
at that time you couldn't ship horses
enough there, as everybody wanted
them."

of weeks, with an attack of grip, is
now rapidly recovering, and it is ex-

sickness, and has the sympathy of hie
fraternal brethren. We omitted to
mention last week the very great, im-

This is the most Practica and Common Sense invention of
the present period. The springs are very Flexible and
Lighter and yet More Durable than any stiffener
heretofore used in corsets.
They are not fixed or- fastened 'permanently in the pockets,
but are suspended, yielding tb every conceivable move-

and cannot penetrate the material of the corset:
These springs are unbreakable, of which any lady can convince herself by sim-
plyremoving one of the springs and testing the same. With each corset
two extra springs are enclosed, which can also he used for dress steels,
The Corset es so constructed that itcan actually be stiffened or boned
by the wearer at her own pleasure. If the corset should hurt on the
side, a complaint so general to other corsets, theispring can be removed.
This can be accomplished by simply raising the flaps and withdrawing
as many springs as the wearer might find con vente n t. TheWatchspring
owing to many superior advantages which it possesses, is to -day the
cheapest and most durable corset ever offered to the public, and one •
which will be the most acceptable to the, wearer, and the mostpopular
