A gold filled case that will wear 20 years coatis within a dollar what it did a few years ago. The dollar represents the reduced coat of making; the gold costs just the same. I sell gold filled oases — oases that have stood the test of. y ears, and ersonally guarantee every caee which I sell, in addition to the manufacturer's warrant. I al- ways have the largest stook, the most desirable patterns and sell them as low as possible. Any make of movement you desire at The Satisfactory Store.

The second trial of Mrs. Sternaman, who was sentenced to death for poisoning her husband; was concluded on Saturday, and resulted in her acquittal. The steamer W • R. Lynn brought 232,000 bushels of corn to Owen Sound harbor. This is thought to be the largest cargo of oorn ever floated in fresh water It is said that W. Ogilvie, of M, ntreal, who has 1,500,000 bushels of wheat on hand, will make $750,000 by the rise in gyaln. The London, Eng„ Board of Tr,ide returns for the month of April show an increase lin the imports of £50,110,200 and a decrease in the exports of£2,204,100 The GrandTrunk has given orders for the construction of 250 refrigerator cars for lm=' mediate use. Business is increasing so rapid- ly the company is unable to cope with its de- velopment with its present,equcpment. The visible supply of wheat in the United States and Canada, together with the amount afloat to Europe, is now 62 128,000 bushels, a decrease of 1,295,000 bushels for the week. A year ago the total was 49,302.000 bushels,or 12.- 826,000 bushels less than at the present time. Alex. McLaren, M. P. of North Perth, the well-known Stratford c�ieeseman,has,through his Boston agents, contracted to supply Mc- Laren's Imperial cheese to the United States warships Columbia, Minneapolis and Lehigh. These vessels are now cruising off the Middle and Eastern States. The advance in the price of wheat is of the greatest importance to Canada. Should the rise of 30 cents be ma'ntained a few months longer it will mean an incretise lin the pur- chasing power of the farmers in Ontario and Manitoba, the two great wheat raising pro- vinces of the Dominion, of a sum no less than $20,00[1,0001,0425,000.000, _ ... . The Michigan crop reports for May, winch were issued by Secretary of State Garner, say the average condition of wheat is 04 in the State. The average for the State is 12 per cent higher than in 1897. Less than 1 per cent of the area seeded will be plowed up be- l Dane (winter killed or otherwise destroyed. The outlook for fruit of all kinds is generally promising throughout the State. WOOLS—A small lot of new fleece was bought here to -day at 16e There is ag good deal of in- terest being taken in the future of the mar- ket. Tho United States duty is the all impor- tant factor in the matter of prices. The duty on unwashed is 12c and on tub washed the duty of 39c per lh, is altogether prohibitory, Allowing for the 12e duty on fleece wool local dealers think the new clip In Canada will have to he bought at 14c to al'ow exporters to make any margin on it. A cent or two more mignt be paid, but the impression here is that anything bought over hlc would be purely a matter of speculation.—Globe. Mats, Caps, Gloves, Braces, Ties, Collars, etc. at your own price. We still have a lot of Boots and Shoes in Youths' and Children's sizes at a little over half price.
