He has sent it to Hensall to be mounted. This is the second that has been shot in this sect- , ion this fall.

At 4.28 the bridal couple left on the southern train for the City of the Straits to spend the honeymoon. They will return this week and take up their residence on Isaac street, next Mr. D.

You are a MODEL BOARD. The order, management and discipline of most of the rooms are excellent and of all good. Not a single dollar of the money raised for Public School pur- poses is wasted."

SELF-DENIAL WEEK.—The Salvation Army is preparing for their annual Self -Denial Week, which will be cele- brated throughout the Dominion from Dec. 1st to 8th inclusive. The proceeds which have been raised in other years through this concentrated effort, has been a re- markable testimony to the Array's de- velopment and activity. Every mem- ber of the Army, as well as the numer- ous friends of its institutions, are asked to abstain from some or all luxuries, even such expenditures as is ordinarily considered necessary, in order to raise funds to help the Salvation Army in its many different branches. The social operations, especially, have been great- ly developed during the last twelve months, and as a natural consequence, the demands upon the funds of the Army have increased, which will re- quire greater efforts to raise an in- creased amount during Self -Denial Week. Tlie total amount aimed for is $23.000• Efforts are now being put forth in a practical way, as we conclude from the contents of the "War Cry" and the special pamphlet and appeals which are being distribut- ed by the soldiers annd officers. The proceeds of previous Self - Denial Weeks in Canada have been continually increasing, and there are many reasons to believe that this years will exceed the former. Many officers and soldiers have determined to live actually on bread and water —others next to it—in order to raise _ a good share of sum }timed at. Soldiers have been told off to visit from house to house and solicit contributions. In other places the hands have arranged serenades and by this means raise something towards their "target." We rely upon the help and sympathy of the people of Clinton of uniting with us in spirit to make -our week of Self -Denial one of success.—Cow.

Under Your Stove It's a good idea to put a piece of Oil Cloth ; a live coal or some hot ashes dropped from it will spoil more carpet in a minute, than would have paid for the oil cloth half a dozen times over. We have it 1, 1f, 11 and 2 yards wide, but what we sell the most of, is a piece 11- yards square, which costs you 55c., 90c., $1.20 or $1.25 the square. The $1.25 square is made specially for the purpose, being in the form of a square mat finished with a border on all sides. 'While it costs?a trifle more than the others, it has by far the best appearance. IftliZidtffiladiftdpmila Did You Know That we made and laid all Carpets bought of us, free of charge ?
