should be worth the low price of admission.
ICE.—The use of ice in summer is
becoming greater every year, and con-
sequently more ,ersons are becoming
interested in %tering it. All the
butchers are putting in e. supply; near-
ly all the hotels are storing for them-
,eelyes. Jas. Steep is cutting a large
amountfor his own business; he and
Mr Allansot3 are also storing for gen-
eral consumption. The supply is being
taken froth anEgmond's, from Steep'e
.pond,and also from the river.
WEDDED.—A quiet wedding took
place at the home of Mrs S. Holmes,

being given away by het brother,
while Rev. Mr Parke performed the
ceremony. After a. wedding supper,

of many friends.
Roust. OF REFUGE -NOTES.—We
rare requested to acknowledge receipt
•;•of a lot of books and other choice lit-
erature kindly sent to the House by
Mr F. Holmstead, of Seaforth; similar
!deflations will be very acceptable. It
has been' necessary on a couple of oc-
v easions to use the lick -up for some re-
fractory inmates, but on the whole all
are orderly and well-behaved. One of
;.the moat interesting inmates is
an orphan girl of thirteen, pretty
and very tidy; it was never contem-
'plated. to take inmates of this nature,
'but until a home can be provided for
her, she is likely to remain, as she is a
general favorite.

forth,has been visiting friends here.—

sinall lots, privately.

now better. Four -foot green wood is
being supplied to the town at $2.70 per

all good goods. We always watch that the qualities are
right; if we know it we won't sell what won't give you
satisfaction. Selling for Cash enables us to da with
smaller profits than if we didn't, Good things don't cost
much extra money, often not any more, but if they do
they're much more satisfactory.

THE RESULT
What people tell us are the best and
prettiest Prints ever shown in Clinton.
If we we to say here half the good things people say in the
store about the Embroideries, how good they are, how pretty
and how cheap, you would think we were exagerating, so we'll
just ask you to come and see them any time you are up town.
