The word tariff come from "'Peril -fa," an African town 20 miles southwest of Gibraltar. Centuries ago Tariffa _ was the headquarters of a band of pirates who compelled all vessels en- tering the Mediterranean to pay tri- bute. Tariff thus originally meant robbery. In some cases it still means robbery. So smith an exchange. Nominations. County council nominations will be held this year on Monday, Dec. 22nd, and municipal nominations on Mon- day, December 20th.

Collyer of Middlesex coun- ty raised 510 measured bushels from seven -eighths of an acre of Yellow Danvers onions. We have known onions to cause tears, but such a crop as this should cause tears of joy. All Ordered Clothing bought at Geo. Carr's is guaranteed. Past Votes.

Wireless telegraphy as a means of safety in the operations of trains may be installed on the Grand Trunk Rail- way System.

Conspicuously Absent. The Goderich Star remarks as fol- lows:—His Worship the Mayor of Goderich and M. L. A. for West Huron will not sit, on that commission for the revision of the Federal statutes. The Globe of Tuesday announced the names of the commissioners, who will begin their sittings forthwith at Otta- wa, and the name of M. G. Cameron is conspicuously absent. The contention raised in the West Huron contest on this point seems to have been well taken. Mr. Ross •could not spare his admiring supporter, who has been forced tea forego the -snug position on the. coearnieeien,,." .. It Always Pays. It always pays, from every stand- point, to be gentlemanly and kind, as the following instance proves. Abotit two years and a half ago, Harry Wil- liams, of St. Thomas, saw Mrs. Beve- ridge knocked down on the streets of Liverpool by a street car. He prompt- ly went to her assistance, and finding that one leg was broken and she was badly injured, he took her to the hos- pital, where he occasionally after- wards visited her. Mrs. Beveridge's appreciation of this attention was shown in practical manner by her leaving Harry a legacy of $11,000, which comes to young Williams when he becomes 25 years of age, which will be soon. Condolence. The local Court of Independent For- esters, at their last meeting, passed a resolution of condolence with Mr. T. Abraham, in his recent bereavement. GREAT CLOTHING SALE.

Miss Mad- dock gave practical demonstrations in cooking, by preparing puddings, sauces, etcA very successful meet- ing is reported. Not Yet. A number of our exchanges report- ed last week that Conductor Ireland had been promoted to the passenger service. Yesterday (Wednesday) on enquiry from Mr. Ireland, we learned that the promotion had not yet been made. though he is at present in charge of the London afternoon pas- senger train. The Advance will be pleased to announce the fact of the promotion when it has been made, for our townsman we believe is thorough- ly deserving of it, and we hope it will be a fact at no very distant date. Rather Mixed. A schoolboy was told to write an essay on the Tudor Period. Of Ra- leigh he wrote: "Sir Walter was the first person to introduce the use of tobacco into England, and one day, as be was initiating some friends into the mystery of smoking, he turned round and said, very impressively, to Ridley. "We shall this day light such a flame in England that it will never be put out." Cut With Glass. On Friday last, W. C. Thompson, clerk in Smith & Pethick's ran against a sheet of glass that was projecting from the ledge, with the result that it inflicted a deep gash in his right leg, necessitating several stitches to close the gaping . wound. Will. has been obliged to walk nearly double, and take as little exercise as possible. Work has been out of the question with him since the accident.

The total value of church and sheds is $2,600, and its seating capacity 200. The finances are fully provided for. -Opening - services will be continued next Sunday. At the last General Synod. held in Montreal, it was strongly recommended that the first week in Advent be observ- ed as a solemn week of prayer and inter- cession in order that through infinite mercy ,the careless may be awakened the obstinate convinced, the penitent encouraged and the ignorant brought to knowledge of the truth. There will be special services in St. Paul's church every evening next week except Tues- day, when it will be at 4 p.m. Prominent men in connection with the Presbyterian and Methodist church- es express themselves as being heartily in sympathy with the proposed plan for co-operation in home mission work be- tween the beards of the two churches. Rev. Dr. Sutherland thinks they will both be able to effect a large saving by working together. The churches will not overlap each other's work in the west and each denomination will be able to got along with fewer men. The Ram's Horn says:—Tire throne of grace is not a bargain counter. Deep digging must go before high building. Trials are heavenly teachers in earthly guise. The stream of life rises not above its source. Culture is not character but character is culture. There are no sins that a man may keep to himself. When a man is his own god he is other people's devil. Few over intend to take more than a tiny taste of sin. The only thing that comes to the man who waits is the dust from the procession.

Next door to Post Office. as GOD BLESS OUR DAD„” We happened in a house the other night -and over the parlor door s w the legend, worked in.lettereof red,' What is Home without a Mother.?" Across. the room was another brief desire, "God Bless Our Home." Now, what's the matter with "God Bless Our Dad ?" •He gets up early, lights the fire, boils an egg, grabs his dinner pail, and wipes off the dew of the dawn with his boots, while many a mother is sleeping. He makes the weekly handout for the butcher, the grocer, milkman and baker, and his little pile is badly worn before he has been home an hour. He stands off the bailiff and keeps the rent paid up. If Johnny needs a new pair of shoes, dad goes down in his dip and comes alp with the price of a hard day's sweat. If Mary needs a new ribbon for her hair, or mother yearns for a wrapper and babe yowls for a rattle, down goes dad again and up comes the chink. But if he buys a new pipe for a quarter, because the old one is getting a bit strong, he is warned that smoking is an expensive habit, and that risen have smoked up blocks and farms and hap- py h+•mes. When a show 'strikes town, dad comes np with the price and ma, goes out with a neighbor, and Mary sparks her beau in the parlor. Dad's clothes are none too good, and grime will stick, so he site in the kitcheu with the kids. If there is a noise during the night, dad is kicked in the back and made to go down stairs to find the burglar and kill him. Mother darns the socks, yes, she does ; but dad bought the socks in the first place, and the needles and the yarn afterwards. Mother does np the fruit; well, dad bought it all—and jars and sugar cost like the mischief. Dad buys chicken for the Sunday dinner, carves it himself and draws the neck front the ruins after everyone else is served. "What is home withnnt a, mot her?" Yes. that is all right, but what is home without a father? Ten to ono it is a boarding house, farther is under a slab, and the landlady is the widow.' Dad, here's to yon ; you've got y -r faults—you may have lots of 'em -1\1 5 you're all right, and we'll miss you when you're gone.
