BETTER THAN EVER FOR 1804.- :conomy is the order of the day, and et is false economy to use anything xcept the very best, especially when comes to a question of quality in eeds. The most noted horse in the )ominion is "THE STEELE, BRIGGS, EARCON SEED Co.," Toronto, and their andsoine Catalogue for the year is .ow to hand. It is brimful of all new nd reliable varieties in Flowers,Fruits, 'egetables and Seed Grains, as well as 'otatoes and all accessories for farm Qt. arden, it contains 500 illustrations, nd is mailed free to all intending ayers, and we recommend you to .nd for a copy. The firm are reliable nd their seedgrow. CASH BUSINESS. -'We are pleased to ote that Messrs. Cooper & Co. and ;ante & Spalding will adopt the cash rstern to -morrow. We have in C'lin- in some of the best business firms in le Province, among them the above vo firtns. Last year the Hodgens ry-goods firm and Taylor & Sons ad- pted the cash system and are well Ltrsfied with the result. Now we ave two more firms. Sooner or later I business men must comae to the pay- ;-you-go plan. In the case of the aok stores many of the sales are small, !om one cent up and the smaller items ce in the majority. There should be o need for book accounts in these rifling matters or even in the larger ems. We trust the whole people will ion be educated to the cash system. will certainly prove much better for archaser and seller. NEWSPAPERS AND MEN.—The Gorrie idette has been converted to a t•our- ige, twenty-eight column paper and now all printed at home. -The Blyth Lndard last week appeared in eight- age form and is now about the same ze as THE NEWS -RECORD. We also Mice considerable new display letters. lith age the Standard improves in all �s)?ects.-Last week the eaforth Ex- isitor appeared in a handsome new cess of body type. The Expositor is good newspaper and one of the .ghest priced in the county. -There ere seven newspaper men at the aunty Council last week -Kerr, reeve Brussels; Neelin, deputyreeve of uaforth ; and McLean, Mitchell, Mc- illicuddy, Mayor Holmes and Todd in to interest of their several papers. rant Clerk Lane is a very obliging ANOTHER PIONEER. This time the lgoma Pioneer, a newspaper publish- for almost the entire time by the able and painstaking editor, now 21 years old. We should have entioned the fact ere this, because Pioneer is and has long been a noble id worthy representative. Twenty-one existence of a newspaper at the median Sault is something to lie of. The Pioneer has played a important part in the loyal and history of the Dominion r nearly a quarter of a century. her 21 years struggle the Pioneeer n celebrate the most important event Canadian history -the opening of national and the greatest canal the continent.

L. 710 will meet next Monday evening instead of a week later, County meeting on Tues- day. REV. S. SWAN; J. C. Stoneman, Jas. Beverly and B. Phillips, of Hensall were in Clinton last week attending district meeting in regard to the sup- erannuation fund. INSURANCE. -Those who desire in- formation about the insurance depart- ment of the Orange Association should interview W. G. Smyth, the authorized agent. COUNTY ORANGE MEETING.—The Orange Lodge of South Huron will meet in annual session at Exeter next Tuesday at 11 a. m. Eight or more delegates from any one station are entitled to fare and a third rate fdr the round trip. It is expected that there will be a large attendance. CHEAP PRINTING!—The Exeter Times has secured the county printing for 1894 at prices which would starve a good workman on quarter pay. If the work was being performed for a church organization we could understand why some of it might bo performed -without any charge. But why newspaper men should work for little or nothing, and board themselves, for any corporation, we are at a loss to know. Gold may glitter in the distance, but the Times will not receive a cent of profit for the greater part of the work. Some of it will he performed at a direct loss. The County of Huron is sadly in need of a Printers and Publishers Protective As- sociation. FAST HoRsLs.-Clinton has for several years been noted for the high class of blood horses owned by several gentlemen in town. The quality and the number is better and greater than ever. A few years ago a well-known horseman in town was fined because he drove along Albert street at a "lightning pace "-16 miles an hour we believe the present Mayor testified. These fast horses,so report says,must he now curbed or their owners dispose of them for "plugs." Horses that can show such record breaking speed as 16, 20 or 25 utiles an hour would bring great returns -'to the owners, but a rearedy has been provided which may keep down the speed. Now and again some of these "goers" may he seep with legs curbed with padded straps to prevent direct forward strides. This will probably ease the mind of His Worship and prevent further fining. PROSPERING. -We always like to earn of the prosperity of our friends and even our enirnies. Even though >ur friends should do tve1l under a oreign flag we rejoice with them. Chey would not be there or: even do cell if their services were not requir- d. In fact: it is a credit to them that ;heir valued services are required vhtle thousands and thousands of mericen people remain idle. These voids refer to a former worthy voung esident of Clinton, Mr. 11. P. livans. He is assistant superintend- nt of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Jolnpany at Chattanooga, Tenn„ and s rapidly climbing to the front. All (-liable Canadians take a first place in he United States because reliable merica.ns are "few and far between," q to speak. We are indebted to Mr. .vans for a very handsome color- ithograph calendar from the office of he Metropolitan, a handsome art pro- motion. And we are delighted to lersonally learn that "Hardy" is suc- eeding so well. He certainly deserves 11 the success our American cousins an heap upon him. Io You READ? -Time and again we nave been told that only a certain class -the minority -read a certain part of • country Or local newspaper. At tirries we have been led to believe that the statement Was correct. Facts have led the writer to come to the conclusion that nine out of ten people end the local paper column after olumn, line after line, from start to finish. Our doubt was always only tis to the few. The other week we re - erred to Mr. Walter Coats, the green grocer, doing acertain amount of busi- less during Christmas week. We pur- posely placed the little item in what ve considered the most remote corner it space in THE NEWS -RECORD. Our ihject was to ascertain how people sad the paper and to learn the direct or indirect value of printers' ink. A few >ours after the paper was delivered on Vednesday morning a business man everal blocks from where Mr. Coats is ocated asked him if the statement was one. Of course it was. What we de - ire to call attention to is that NEWS- APERS are read -read from column to annin all.the way through, and that HE NEWS -RECORD is Unsurpassed as n advertsing medium. The case in Dint, to our mind, shows that this urinal is read through and through y the great majority of people. THE LATit WILLIAM MCBRIEN,-We re indebted to our painstaking 'unmet bill correspondent for the [flowing timely mention of adeparted ioneer :---Another of the pioneers of is county passed away on Tuesday vening, the 23rd inst. We refer to he late Wrn. McBrien, of the 6th con. f Hullett near Summerhill. The de - eased was born in Fermanah County, reland, in 1812, and when a young man came across the atlantic and lived short time in Ohio. He then came to he Huron Tract and for many years, gether with other members of the tmily, lived on the farm now owned y Mr. J. J. McLaughlan just south of lie village. He afterwards purchased he present homestead and spent the emeaning years of his long life there. lthough small in stature he had a arge heart, an iron constitution, and y dint of hard work hewed out for imself a home in the heart of the orest. He was a good husband and fa and an esteemed neighbor and fend. He leaves a widow, two sons Win. John and Henry) and one daught- (Mrs. Harry Hyslop) to mourn his ss. In politics he was a Conserative, religion an Episcopalian and express - g a firm faith in Christ looked for- ard to a home not made with hands ernal in the heavens. The funeral ok place on Thursday last and was gely attended. We extend to the We, the undersigned Book and Stationery Merchants of Clinton, acting on the advice of customers and , friends, knowing full well the necessity of so doing, have decided from the first of February next, to do a TRICTIY CASH BUSINESS.

We are anxious, just how anxious the reduc'd prices on heavy winter stuffs will tell you, to have as little as possible of our winter goods by that date, so are clearing them out at prices that mean a saving of money to you. Next week we expect New Prints, Shakers, &c., and then our stock of Cotton Cowls will be nearly complete. Watch for further announcements con cerning them. We will have particularly good values for the coming season. In proof of ouroft-repeated assertion that goods can be and are sold cheaper for cash than on credit; you will notice that when credit houses occasionally; get their prices down to a cash level they insist on the ready cash ; they can't sell at cash prices and give credit, noithor can we. All the time we sell at cash, prices, and they are too low to allow us to give credit. Standard Fashion Sheets and Patterns for February are here,' .'lie Fash- ion Sheets can be had for the asking.
