WEDDING -The residence of Mr Thos Farquhar, Albert Street, was the scene of a happy and interesting event, yes- terday afternoon, when his daughter, Susie M., became the wife of Mr Henry McBrien, of Hallett.. Both are popular young people, have resided from in- fancy in this neighborhood, and enjoy a large circle ofacquaintances, all of whom join with us in wishing them unbounded happiness. The bride's sis- ter, Miss Etta, and the cousin of the groom, Mr Albert hicBrien, acted as bridesmaid and groomsman respective- ly, while Rev. Mr Fairlie performed the ceremony. The couple left on a wed- ding tour to Detroit. THE OPENINGS.—It is generally con- ceded that Clinton Millinery Openings take precedence of all others, and the displays made by our merchants last Saturday showed a magnificence in style and profusion in assortment that would be h..rd to excel anywhere. Crowds visited the several stores and were doubtless all pleased at the beaut- iful things to be seen. THE BAND. -The town band, which has been giving weekly open air con- certs during the summer, much to the enjoyment of the townspeople, com- pleted its contract last Thursday night, so far as its engagement with the town • is concerned, and is under no further obligation. But the members of the band have generously decided to play as much longer as the season will al- low them to do so. New 1VYi�linery Our Nrew Millinery scored a triulnph on Saturday, the open- ing was a decided success, "unequalled" was the verdict of the public on the display. Everything ih Millinery that should be here is here. The stock is large and well assorted, giving great variety to select from, the styles and Trimmings correct, fashionable and up to date — Every worthy style in shape and trimming we have. The stock is one of merit, and Miss McMillan will be pleas- ed to show you all the novelties at any time you can call. We would suggest an early visit, as the choicest things always go first. 0 ortable Little Things ter Changeable Weather VETBanceuT CONVHNTION. — The veterinary surgeons of western Ontar- io held a convention in Stratford, on Thursday and Friday, there being a fairly representative attendance from Perth, Huron, Waterloo, Bruce and Wellington counties.

Interesting papers on topics pertaining to diseases and their treatment were read by Dr Berger, of Listowel, and Dr Walker, Londesboro. The meeting then adjourned until Friday. On re- assembling, the convention proceeded to form an organization to be known as the Western Ontario Veterinary Medical Association, for which the following officers were elected; Presi- dent, Dr Berger, of Listowel; vice-pres- ident, Dr Walker, of Londesbc ro, sec- retary, Dr Carr, Kirkton; treasurer, Dr McAllister, Stratford. Chairman Gibbs read a paper containing much valuablelinformation forthe profession, after which various subjects were dis- cussed, affecting the interests of veteri- narians, especially along the line of greater protection for legitimate prac- titioners, and the elevation of the pro- fession. FORGERY OR MISTAKE.—Mr John • Rumball, jeweller, is in receipt of letters from Sir John Thompson, Premier, and Hon. J. C. Patterson, acknowledging letters bearing his signature and thanking him for the suggestions contained therein. As Mr Rumball never sent any letters to either of the gentlemen named, on any subject whatever, he is at a loss to know who is using his name. Rance & Spalding Something for the time when summer clothes are too light, and winter clothes too heavy. Hosiery, Gloves and Un- derwear, medium weights and low in price, just the thing for between seasons. 25c Ladies' Fine all wool Vests All sizes in fine all wool Cashmere Gloves..20 8s25c Full Fashioned Cashmere Hose 25cRibbed Cashmere Hose, all wool Very fine, full fashioned, all wool Cashmere Hose, bac special value at NOTES—Mr Ab.

People who wish to locate in a town possessing the very choicest church and school facili- ties; a town that is remarkably clean, healthy and attractive, will find Clin- ton to be the spot. FARM RENTED.—The Expositor says: -Mrs John Ross has rented the old homestead farm on the London Road, Stanley, south of this village, to Mr Charles W osman who has been work- ing on the farm for a couple of years. The rental is $290 a year. It is one of the nicest and best farms on .the Lon- don road and Mrs Ross is fortunate in securing so good a tenant. Mrs Ross. intends removing to Clinton, to reside, and she will have an auction sale of her farm stock and effects on the 12th of October. UNFAIR.—A local business man calls attention to the market quotations in a Clinton paper, which professes to be changed every week. For instance, cats are quoted at 34and 35 cents, the figures not having been changed since JnIy last. Wake up!- Goderich Star. (Ain indiscriminate notice of this nature is unfair. The Star should have particularized its charge. The NEW ERA, quotations are changed every week, but as the Star fails to specify which paper it means, we are compell- ed to say it is not the NEW ERA.] WISH TO CALL YOUR ATTENTION TO THEIR FALL PURCHASES OF WALL PAPER and WINDOW SHADES DRESS GOODS Don't buy a single new dress until you see what we have to show.

We've opened a lot of Good Serges, the most popular FALL FAIRS.—This is the season of fall fairs, and the NEW ERA this week gives up considerable space to prize lista.

Both usually have good fairs, and if the weather is favor- able, each is likely to have a large crowd present, notwithstanding that both take place on the same days - Tuesday and Wednesday next.
