The Collegiates Won.
A game of football was played in the
park Monday evening between the
Modelites and Collegiate eleven which
the latter won by a score of two goals
to one. This is not so bad for,the Mod_
elites to start with. It's a defeat to he
sure, but next evening they played a
draw gltnle.
The Horse Died.
Mr. eetines Howson sold a horse the
other day, but the animal dropped dead
when being taken home by its pur-
chaser. The latter knew what he was
buying, in fact he once owned the horse
and sold it to Mr. Howson, but it was
evidently in a worse state than either
buyer or seller were aware of. The
sale was straight enough, nevertheless
Mr. Howson gave back the purchase
price though he need not have done so.
Collegiate Football Club.
A meeting of the Collegiate Football
Club was held last Thursday evening
and was well attended. The meeting
was for the purpose of re -organizing,
in which enthusiasm was displayed,
and, judging by the interest taken in
the game this year, the Collegiate
should be able to put a good team in
the field. The officers elected were as
follows :—President, ,7. W. Treleaven ;
Sec.-Treas., W. S. Turnbull ; Captain,
J. Kelly ; Field Committee, McConnell,
Agnew, and Fair ; Subscription Com-
mittee, Bill by, McConnell, Passmore,

Window Displays.
Neighbor.Co per of 0, Cooper,..&S. o.
is keeping tip his reputation of being
an original window dresser. His south
window has this week a "Corn" dis-
play, showing the golden grain from
the seed stage to the cob in the pot and
corn starch. Mr. Sidney Jackson of
the Prescription drug store has the
neatest display probably ever made in
that place of business. We fancy the
master hand of J. S. Jackson had
something to do with the arrangement
of articles. Jackson Bros. have as
usual a drawing display and so also
with 1lodgens Bros. Both these firms
are up-to•date with their window as
well as newspaper advertising. Other
business places have attractive win-
dows, a good. index of a well -stock
store.
Miss Wiggins' Appeal.
The commodious town hall was filled
to the doors at Monday evening's pleb-
iscite meeting and though two-thirds
of the audience were ladies and have
not the franchise, yet they are the
mothers, wives and sisters of electors,
and it was to them that the speaker
made a special appeal. The chair was
occupied by Rev. Mr. Mnrdnck, who
tickled the visihles of the audience to
start with by a humorous story.
"Where now would man be," said a
budding orator in adorning a tale,
"were i1 not for woman," and the
answer crone from the omnipresent
small boy in the gallery, •'In Paradise."
The speaker of the evening was Miss
Wiggins, a daughter by the way, of
Professor Wiggins, the storm -tossed
weather prophet. She has a pleasing
address and though not the style of
speaker that would most impress a
masculine audience, her appeals to the
women were strong and had a telling
effect.
Huron at the Western Pair.
The good old county of Huron did
well at the Western Fair, winning a
number of prizes, principally in live
stock. The following list may not
them all but is very comprisey satis-
factory as far its it goes:—Geo. Dale,

3rd on aged mare and 3rd on two-year-
old mare; Thos McMichael, Millet, 1st

A Sad Accident.—Mr. Alex. Mitchell,
who has been putting up a very flne
silo was cleaning the interior of the
platforms required in constructing it.
He had vymrking for hila Mr. Alexan-
der Trippof Port Perry,Ontario county,
a man of some 62 years of age. Hav-
ing given him instructions about
wheeling in a harrow some stones on
the east side of the gangway remote
from the silo, Mr. Mitchell then start-
ed throwing the plank over the top of
the silo. After taking one barrowful
around Mr. Tripp was proceeding for
thesecond but in a different place, viz.,
to a litttle pile near where the planks
were fallingwhen one struck the ground
quite near him tipped over and fell
against him striking him in the side
of the head which blow knocked him
down and remaining only a few
minutes until life was extinct.
The Dr. was hastily sent for, but long
before he arrived his life was a corpse.
Messages were at once despatched to
hie wife and family of three which
doubtless will give them a great shock
and worse still to think they could not
even see him, Mr. A. Mitchell left
Monday morning with the corpse for
his home where no doubt there are
some very sad hearts. Mr. Mitchell
who is feeling very, sad over the acci-
has the sympathy df the neighbors and
is it was not carelessness on his part he
niay feel more relieved that it appears
the man seemingly walked to his death

Hotel Bars Must Close On Sept.
29th Says the Attorney -General.
Hon. David Mills, Minister of Justice,
was asked whether saloons should he
closed on plebiscite day or not, but
declined to express any opinion, merely
saying:—"The question has not been
before inc. and I have not considered
it. Each person must interpret the law
for himself."
This idea of Mr. Mills that "each
person must interpret the law for him-
self is very much in keeping with a
story which has been current at Ottawa
for a week or more about the instruc-
tions said to have been given bye ret tim-
ing officer in Ontario to his deputies
when informing them of their appoint-
went. "Now boys," he is reported to
have said, "you have all worked with
me before. and know your duties, so
there is no use giving you instructions,

"All Ads Look Alike To Me"
The Ulan or woman who says that, or thinks it, is
the very man or woman who is apt to get the worst
of it in a search for values. We intend our adver-
tisements to be, and they are, an index of what's
occurring in our store. Do you think that we pay
big money to advertise high prices ? Would adver-
tising pay us, doing as much as we do, it' we didn't
offer really unusual values? Our advertising isn't
sensational, but it's always full of good things for
our money.
The Riqht and Wrong Way
The wrong; way to buy a Suit of Clothes is to look
around for something that's cheap. It may look
fairly well. on the counter -.in fact a cheap suit is
made to look well while on sale—hut what a differ-
ence after a week's wear ! It bags at the knees,
pushes up at the back, frays out at the bottom,
while the pockets have a hang -dog look, and the
general appearance of premature decay that lingers
about the wearer is evidence that Ile has been mak-
ing" a vain attempt to save money by buying a cheap
suit.
The right way is to buy good clothing at a fair price
—that's true economy. We have been preaching
this in Clinton fol; thirty years past, and our big
business is good evidence that this is a sound doctrine.
Specials
which we have now on sale are :-
25 pairs of Men's Pants, in 2.50 and $3, all our own
make, now being closed out at $1.39. A won-
derful snap. We are short of some sizes, but most
men Can get a pair to fit there. Come quick,
They wont last long.
Our wonderful $5 Men''s Snit is easily worth $7,
and we don't think a:ny such value has ever been
offered in the West. Keen, shrewd buyers should
see it.
Our famous.$10 Suit, :made by ourselves, is better
to • than.. ever, and we arca still selling larger quantities
than ever before. These Suits are'worth in the
ordinary way $15.. Nobody in this section can
equal them..
