THE BLOOMING BLOOMERS.—Just now the question as to whether lady bicyclists shall or shall not wear bloomers is agitating the mind of many in towns and cities. So far there has been much bitter criticism indulged in over the matter by both sexes. Many plausible arguments for and against have been advanced. But there is another side to the question. Those who take their inspirations from higher authorities than man or woman will secure light in reading Deuteronomy XXII : 5 :— "The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment ; for alt that do so are abomination unto the Lord thy God." NIGHT BLOOMING CEREUS.—"The Wigwam," the • home of the Misses Mountcastle, Huron Street, has had many visitors during the past few eve- nings. The wild garden clothed in nature's beauty, the house flowers and plants as nature made them, and the art paintings so natural in appearance should he sufficient explanation. The Night Blooming Cereus, however, has delighted scores of our citizens. It is eight years old and for several even- ings the ladies have kindly illuminated the bay window of the "Wigwam" in order that a good view might be ob- tained. The flowers of this plant were unusually large and numerous,' most delicate and fragrant and much admir- ed by those who were fortunate enough to see them. The Misses Mountcastle have also a very handsome Trailing Fuschia, with over one hundred invit- ing flowers. Mies Clara is executing a painting of the wild garden. The "Wigwam" has many attractions for lovers of nature and flowers in all their splendour at this particular season of the year. • THE BOWLING TOURNAMENT.—The biggest event in sporting circles in Sea - forth for some weeks, was the bowling to'mnament held on the green of the Serfort-h Bowling Club on Tuesday last. The green was in excellent shape, and was pronounced by the visitors to be one of the finest lawns in the Province. From early morning until after dark, the green presented a very animated appearance, and the interest was maintained from ,.begin- ning to end by the close and exciting games. The following clubs were re- presented :—Clinton, 2 rinks ; Goderfeb, 3 rinks ; Mitchell, 3 rinirs ; Sea - forth, 3 rinks. In the primary con- teSt between rinks, the Mitchell rink, skipped by Dr. Wood car- ried off the prize. The consolation rink contest was not finished two Sea - forth rinks skipped by Messrs.

STEWART, Grocer, - Albert St.,.Cliinton.° Sunietluies In writiin our advertisements, we cannot resist a feeling of writing in the . manner similar to that hi which we talk to our friends, thisle a way that some business men would call a waste of time and also the waste of the space' their ad. is wvititen- Ifowever this may be, we think a general talk on generhl subjects once in a while does neither the advertiser or the customer any harm, If our readers therefore will follow tis for a few moments in this seemingdigressioq from the ordinaryfrules of advertising the result may not be entirely unsatis- factory. ! • _ As the regular reader of advertise- ments well knows the custom of man advertisers is to keep hurling such phrases as the following at the public.. frot'n week to week a "The greatest value on. earth." "Sellin4 out below cost." "Your last and only chance." and similar superlatives; that, to use a common and effective expression make a man tired, and it is not to be wondered ate; now our idea of what the majority 'of men want to know to put it concisely is: not bow much is offered tor a $ "but how much satisfaction le offered. for a $" or any amount whatever. This is undoubtedly the secret of every successful business, it is upon this basis that we have endeavoured to build up a lucrative business, and having ever striven to please and satisfy every customer entering our doors we hope to continue to extend and guarantee the same amount of satisfaction to every customer new also. The fall trade will soon open up and we want to do busi- ness with every man who desires that which in the line of clothing will satisfy him. We are in business for a living, not from philanthrophic or philosophic reasons and whether a man is a Hindoo, Mormon, oranything else onearth if he wants anything in our lipeand is ready to exchange value for ;value, we guarantee him satisfaction. ' May this talk help to incline your trade our way. Jackson Bros., CLOTHIERS, FURRIERS AND HATTERS. Special Announcement. We have bought out the business so long carried on by the Estate of John Hodgens, and will continue the same in all its branches. We are not strangers, and need no introduction to the buying public of this vicinity, and hope by constantly strivingl to lay before the public the newest and most fai§hion able goods in our line, and only those of reliable quaikty; by keeping the prices as low as the quality of the goods handled will permit, and by giving you the most per- fect service possible, to e.btain a continuance of tat public confidence that was awarded to us when manag- ing the business for the estate. For the future we will adhere to the principle of Cash and one Price. More and more every day are people adopting the principle of paying for goods as they get them, and merchants all over the country are joining the ranks of those Who sell for cash only. We firmly believe it is the best for both buyer and seller. As for the One Price, one man's money is no better than another's, and a system of any price to make a sale is fair to no one. We will mark our goods as low as we can, and a price once made is fixed till it is broken for all alike. We would direct attention to our announcement on an- other page, and remind you that the terms on which we bought the stock will enable us to quote you prices that will make it to your advantage to do your fall trading with us. All due bilis issued by the Estate will be honored by us, and we will continue to take produce as cash, Hodgens Bros. cL.aivmor7• '
