FIRST OE MAY. -Trout fishing Is -
no, -we won't say' anything about it.
At present it looks as if any chap
eager enough to go after trout
would have to cut holes in the
ice and wear snow -shoes ; but 'it is
possible that there may be something
of a change after the first. So, after
all, we will say that, weather permit-
ting, trout fishing can be indulged in
on and after the 1st of May, and, in the
longuage of the boy on the borrowed

THIS YEAR'S STYLES.
This year's styles are said by conoissicurs to be the most wear-
able ever introduced. It sometimes happens that the
prevailing styles are becoming to certain types of teatures
and much less suited to others, but this year the fashion
leade rs have been equally considerate of all kinds of
faces, and the styles are not only beautiful. but becoming.
Of course the beauty of the finished article depends much
upon the taste and judgment of the artist who trims the
hat, as well as upon the designer o{ the shape. Our Mil-
liners have the requisite taste, judgment and materials
to furnish you with a beautiful Hat or Bonnet that will
perfectly suit both the cast of your features and the
weight of your purse.
�FitO[VI OUR POBl99'9'C9F' VIEW.
From our point of view, the opening was distinctly successful.
The congratulations of visitors tvlio thronged our show
room, were of course very gratifying, and the many orders
were not less so. We are confident of a very large
season's business.
EASTER HATS AND GLOVES,.
If you are needing a Hat or Bonnet for Easter you can not do
better than leave your order early this week, our New Kid
Gloves are here and you cannot do better than buy from
us, lath for quality told price.

death resulted from greet failure.

parents and settled in Goderich town-
ship. For sotue years he taught school
and was it recognized local preacher of
ability in the Methodist, Church, He
afterward settled on the farm and was
successful He was treasurer of the
township of Goderich for nearly twenty
years. The deceased was a staunch
(• eiserv'ative in politics :end a Metho-
dist in religion. In the early days he
was a member of the Orange Order,
but not in connection of hate years.
