Yarn which we told you about in
this space a week ago, the Gray
has all g ,no and much more than
half of the Red and Blue, con-
sidering the quantity we had, this
is as good as we expected, It was
the price that did it. It was sold
at loo per skein, now we offer it
at 9c. The skeins are large ones,
four of them to a pound. What
is left will not last much longer,
you know our motive in making
the big out, don't you a its not on
account of inferior quality at all
but it is a coarse yarn and not just
in keeping with our trade, its suit-
able for Mitts, Socks on• Quilts.
We do not pretend to be leaders
in making low prices, but we
challenge a comparison of our
goods with those sold by any
competitor, feeling confident that
your verdict for quality and value
will be decidedly favourable to
US.

TIIE TovvN BY-LAws.-Fov some
years Clinton has required a revision
of the town by-laws. Few (if ally)
electors to -day know anything about
the laws governing Clinton. Many of
the old by-laws have been so often
attended or repealed that the ancient
printed copy (and there are very few
to be found) is so perplexity rr that the
law cannot be understood. Then there
is the written law governing theCoun-
eil, which should be in some kind of
form whereby present and possible
future representatives could read and
learn for thgniselves at leisure. The
lntter conipr}Ises 79 sections, or 15 pages
of foolsca ..ges of writing. We do
not hesitate to say that each member
of the Council would perform his duties
much better if lie had the Rules of
Order at his command. In fact the
Mayor said on Monday evening that
Mere were Many important matters in
the latter to be renumbered. We
would suggest to the By -Laws Com-
mittee that they and the Council take
into their serious consideration some
better means of disseminating such
information to themselves And the
public.

Jackson's Clothing Establishment is an old one, dating from 1854
(43 years) and is today one of the oldest Clothing Establishments
in the County. It's growth has been a steady one and today
