Tuckett & Sons To- bacco Co., Ltd., of Hamilton, nine years ago instituted the commendable idea of presenting a deed of a building lot each Christmas to their oldest active employee. This year it was the good fortune of Mr. Thomas Milligan to succeed to the firm's generosity, he having been with them for 2I years. In addition to the lot he received a substantial cheque from the same source. The whole staff of the concern also cathe in for a gift, the day hands receiving an extra week's salary and the piece. hands a good sized turkey. Some time ago the Messrs. Tuckett turned their factory into a joint stock company, admitting many of the more important employees into partnership, and this additional evidence of a de- sire to share with their men the pros- perity of the house connot help but bear fruit in increasing energy and gond-will among all who are fortunate enough to be connected with this en- terprising concern.

AVTER MANY YEARS. -Last Wed- nesday the editor of THE NEws-RE- CORD met a gentleman of the same name he had not seen since 1872, near- ly a quarter of a century, in the person of Mr. T. R. Todd, from near Brandon, Man. It is needless to say that Fath- er 'nine had wrought change enough in the two former youths to prevent recognition. Neither one would have known the other. Mr. Toddisa nephew of the writer and was piloted by his friend. Mr. Wnr. Harland. Some twelve years since he left his old home in Bruce for Manitoba and has prospered there. He has about 1,000 metes of land and devotes his attention to mixed farming. While hero Mr. Todd formed a very favor- able impression of Clinton. He leaves for his home the latter part of March, in the meantime visiting relatives and friends in Bruce. THE JOHNSON-SMILY ENTERTAIN- MENT. -The entertainment to he given•, by Miss E. Pauline Johnson and Mr. Owen A. Smily in the Town Hall next, Thursday evening, in connection with the Christian Endeavor Society, prom- ises to be highly attractive. Mr. Sillily is noted as a master of humor which is always kept within the limits of good taste ; and he can deal with strong tragic effects as well. Miss Johnson ranks among the most admired of Canadian poets ; and her recitations of her own poems are pronounced by all who have heard them to be marvellous for their expressive force and charm. She adds to the effect of her Indian pieces by reciting them in a pretty native costume. By birthright, as is well known, she is entitled to appear in either Indian or English style, her father having been a high chief of the "Six Nations," as well as a well-educat- ed gentleman, and her mother an ac icornplished English lady, the sister of la missionary's wife. The attractions of the entertainment and the laudable purpose for which it is given should ensure for it a large audieuce. Miss E. PAUJLINE JOHNSON, who appears in the town hall to -morrow -eyening, will be the guest of H. Hale, Esq. MR. JOHN BURGESS, of Bluevale, one of the county auditors, was snow hound in Clinton until Saiurday nwrn- ing. Mit. JOHN McGUIRE,of Souris, Man., was in town last Monday and called nn Ten NEWS -RECORD. He originally resided at Toronto and has been in Manitoba farming on his own account for twelve years. Mr. McGuire speaks in high terms of the Canadian prairie province. While in town he was the guest of his friend, Mr. Geo. Hanley. LETTERS. -We have received a letter severely criticising the editor of our town cotem. and his unjust rernarksan- ent the Ladies' Aid of St. Pauls Church. THE NEWS -RECORD, knowing the facts and the untenable position of the New Era, has dealt with the matter and we are satisfied the general public now thoroughly understand the discussion and know THE NEWS -RECORD is right. If anything further is required to substantiate our position affidavits will settle the discussion. Goon TEMPLARs.-Remember that on the evening of Friday, March 1st, there is going to be an open meeting of the above lodge in the Oddfellows hall. Mr. J. K. Murdock, District Chief Templar, will be present and give an address. We need not speak of Mr. Murdock's ability as a speaker. Words of praise from us would he superfluous, as Clinton audiences know hint well. There will also be seyeral numbers of singing and readings contributed by the following and others :-Musical chorus, Messrs. Holdsworth, Jervis and Shannon ; reading, Mr. E. Coombs, B. A.; comic sons, Messrs. Shank and Downs. Mr. C. Hoare is also expected to furnish some music with the musical glasses. This Lodge is in a very thriving condition and there are initia- tions into the order at almost every meeting. The Lodge meets every Friday evening.

BE JUST AND FEAit NUT. -The them hers of the Ladies' Aid and Woman's Auxiliary of St. Paul's Church will have by this time formed a very high estimate of the veracity (?) of the Editor of the New Era. Our esteemed cotton. is so good that it seems impossible to make an error or for it to depart from the path of truth. It may be un- pleasant for our good friend to acknow- ledge the truth and shame the "father of lies," hitt as a public journal THE NEWS -RECORD will never allow the weaker sex to he placed in a false position or wink at and allow un - t rutnful statements to go unchallenged. The New Era may reiterate its state- ment that it is "ungentlemanly" to purses such a course, but we are gal- lant enough to step in and act the part of a gentleman by defending the ladies and truth and justice at the same time. The New Era made the statement that the "members of the Auxiliary" made a certain presentation. The members of the Auxiliary comprise that organiza- tion. The presentation was made by the Ladies' Aid, a distinct and separ- ate organization. The two have no connection. It makes no difference to TIIE NEWS -RECORD whether the presentation was made or paid for by anyone of the kindred societies, but it. makes a vast difference to the general public whether or not the. New Era deliberately misrepresents the facts of the case. The New Era did not state the truth and we said so. Now the editor of our cotem., '•in his usual un- gentlemanly manner," reiterates his former untruthful assertion that. the members of the Auxiliary did make the presentation. We can only now say that the second untruth is worse than the first, because he was warned. The comparison of our cotem. is foolish in the extreme. See what he says: -"In saying so, there need not be the slightest intimation of the mis-appropriation of funds. Cet- tainly not, no more than if we were able to publish that the members of the council had presented the Mayor with a magnificent grand piano for his front morn." if such an unlikely event should • happen, the Mayor would, to use his own argument, swear by all that was gond and true that the members of the Public School Board had made the presentation. The public would know that he was utter- ing a deliberate untruth. The fact that a number of Trustees were mem- bers of the Town Council would not justify any such misleading conclusion. And people who would be foolish enough to believe such wilful misrep- resentation would naturally say the School Board or its members paid for the piano. Such short-sighted humbug! The. question is now one of veracity. The New Era sets himself up as an authority on something he does not know anything about and rantingly talks about the editor of THE NEWS - RECORD being "inspired and that the inspirers' consciences are troubling thein." Since our totem. has for- tnnlated this new charge we might say it is a. matter between the Mayor of Clinton and the Christian workers of a Christian Church. if the repeated untruths of aur totem. does not trouble his conscience all we ran say is that he hies sri.rlly missed his call- ing and will soon be beyond redemp- tion. There can be no ntistake insuch a righteous conclusion. CAST WEEK STOCK SALE. We have more sleighs than we should have, so have decided to sell all we have at rediculously low prices.

Since then a few salon of the suit have been made, and the exceptional of value the garments struck us so forcibly we thought that a review of the causes that led up to this effect would be of interest i g; the purchasing public and our customers generally.. Over 2,000families buy Clothing and in all caeca they want to know where they are going to buy the cheapest, which ie quite right and as a general thing they all read the many advertisements in this paper to see which is the most reliable place to invest their money and the general verdict is JACKSON, TIIE CLOTHIER, and Up To Date Cutter, whore you are sure to get perfect fitting garments. People are all complaining of hard times, which is true enough, and as a natural con sequenco they want to be careful how they lay out their money. But yet they must be clothed ani what I want to tell the many families who read this paper is that I am offering special inducements to compsre with the hard times and if yon will only call end see what we have got yon will be convinced that this is your place for Fine Ordered 01)thing and for two weeks tyre will continue to sell READY MADE CLOTHING at Cost Price. ---CALL AND EXAMINE.

In the FirstP/cice, The material used is an imported serge in various colors known to the trade as "Unfinished Worsted," the wearing - qualities of which is simply unequalled, Secondly, The conditions under which the goods were purchased render it within the realms of possibility to place before the pe .t ,le of Huron, a quality of material the like of which for the pride asked has never in the history of Clothing business in the West been the privilege of any firm to offer heretofore. In the Th ircI P/ace, One cif the conditions previously referred to is simply the follow- ing fact: that in January we purchased a quantity of goods at . exactly $1.55 a yard less than it cost us for the came goods two and three years ago; this fact alone accounts for the other- wise incomprehensible fact that whereas 3 years Itgo we ask- • ed for and sold, made to order, a suiting for $25, to -day the same goods are sold by us ready-made for the exceedingly low figure of s12. Now, In the Fourth Place and Lastly, The foregoing remarks are of a nature that some skeptical readers of advertisements mentally call wind; to these we would say, in this instance as in all other advertisements sign- ed by the name JACKSON BROS., that we never make a statement in printers' ink the veracity of which we ask all readers to judge for themselves by comparing what is written with what the articles in question really r* ...... ...... jAcKsoN The Noted Cloth- ing People of the West. r1 7_ m,ILamm nm =z•yra mmsmmm-a.17451 u svaAm aPma-mm04 EARLY SE I Y G We haven't said much about staples lately, the uniformly low prices at which we sell staple goods of all kinds keep us con- stantly busy in this department.
