FINE TAILORED GARMENTS FOR MEN
For You■
Clothes don't make the Man, but we all despise the
slouchy man. And Good Clothes are like charity, they
cover a multitude of sins. If all men were as good as
they look in
Crowder's Tailored Clothing
there wouldn't be enough medals to go around. Remem-
ber, that Good Clothes are a good investment.

'Pews Items
-Meinbers of the Government are
in favor of summoning Parliament to
meet at an earlier date than was an-
ticipated, and it is now considered
that November 15th may be agreed
upon,
-James A. Harrls who purchased
the Peter Reid farm, 12th Huron, last
spring, has one of the best fames in
the district. IIe threshed 530 bushels
of wheat off 15 acres, Seven acres of
this gave a yield of nearly 45 bushels
to the acre„
-Mr. James Ross of Otago, New
Zealand, spent a few days with his
sister, Mrs, H. Morrison of Ernbro,
last week. This is the first time that
they have met for 55 years. Mr. Ross
is a prosperous sheep farmer and
spanks very highly of his adopted
country. He thinks it offers more in-
ducements for emigration than Can-
ada does.
-A Guelph exchange says : "The
Guelph and Goderich Railway, when
completed, will be a great line -one of
the finest in the province -and to the
building of it has entirely been devot-
ed the best skill and organization
that the 0. P. R. possesses. The com-
pany are rushing the construction
work and it will be completed from
Guelph to Blyth, a distance of 63
miles, in a month from this date.
-The Mildmay Gazette tells of a
farmer in Carrick who recently had
one hundred pigs ready for market.
A few weeks ago he was offered $7.60
per cwt, for the lot, but the farmer
held out for 8c per pound. In the
meantime the market dropped to
$6.60, and the owner of the hogs then
had to sell as the market showed a
tendency to go lower. He lost over
$150 by not selling at the first offer.
Secured at great expense, will give a choice program in front of the
Grand Stand. This Band has been playing with great success in the

-The Provinc'l Board of Health has
sent out instructions to dairymen and
other people who supply milk for pub-
lic distribution, pointing out the im-
portance of keeping cows away from
filth pools and sloughs, and stating
that milk should be cooled as soon as
possible after being taken from the
cows. This should be done in a clean
and sanitary place, where there are no
noxious odors, and strainers and other
utensils should be clean.
CiiAtone
C'antelon Bros. shipped a carload of
pears and crab apples to the West
last week.
For the third time this year, a bi-
cycle has been stolen in town, and in
order to stop offences of this nature,
some punishment will have to be ad.
ministered,
On Thursday night last some one,
supposedly a young man, broke into
Newcornhe's clothing store, and rigged
himself out in a brand new suit of
clothes, leaving bis old ones, and not
bawl ones either, lying on the floor.
A wor ni went into a store in town
last week, and while being waited
upon she pushed a pair of stockings
into her pocket. After she had gone
out the articles were missed. She
was followed and the missing articles
recovered.
Mr. G. W. Sheeley, mechanical sup-
erintendent at the knitting factory,
has gone to Philadelphia to purchase
more of the most modern machines
that money can buy. The plant is
now one of the most complete of the
kind in the province, hut the manag-
ers are determined to have it second
to none.
- Mr, Wm, Duncan returned on Fri-
day last from a three -months' trip
through the \Vest. He homesteaded
for himself and son at a point 180
miles from Saskatoon and 85 from
Battleford. Thera is not even a vil-
lage nearer than that distance from
the lots, but the land is all rapidly be-
ing taken up and a railway line has
been surveyed in the district.
There is practically a house famine
in Clinton. At the present thne it is
next to impossible to obtain a house
of any description for rent. A num-
ber of families are on the hunt, and
anything habitable is quickly taken.
With the additions to the several fac-
tories there has been a considerable
influx of new residents, and the pro-
blem as seen at present is where are
we going to put them ?
-Exactly 50 years since, the Grand
Trunk Railway was busy opening
lines throughout old Canada. To -clay
the same railway is busy spreading a
network of lines from one end to the
other of new Canada. The pioneer
line, is indeed, renewing its youth
with the eagles, to the great benefit
of our industrial and commercial pub-
lic everywhere. Never has the Grand
Trunk been managed with so much
energy and determination to give effi-
cient service to its patrons as now.
-A correspondent of the Farmers'
Advocate says that one reason why
the red clover crop so often fails is the
killing out of bumblebees. Here is
something for school teachers to im-
press upon their pupils. Who of us is
there who has not been taught, by the
conduct of our fellows in early years,
that the bumblebee is "the common
enemy," to be rooted out of his place
of abode and killed whenever come
across ? Yet the bee is the fertilizing
agency that makes clover and other
succulent foods for farm stock grow,
and without whose work the crop
fails. Every child ought to be taught
in home and in school to be a builder
up, and not a destroyer -to be a friend
of every animal and every insect that
is a friend of man.
-The new transcontinental train of
the 0. P. R., the "Overseas Limited,"
was inaugurated August 31st from
Quebec. The new train was at the
wharf awaiting the arrival of the Em-
press of Ireland, which arrived at 2.30
o'clock, At 0 o'clock the train, with

the journey bettdeen Liverpool and
Yokohama will be accomplished in

A CUTTING REBUKE.
Steel Knife In The flesh.
That's the sensation experienced by
Robt. Price, Hecton, Ont. He knew
it was sciatica and of course used Ner-
viline. As usual it cured and he says :
"No liniment can excel Polson's Ner-
viline. Severe pains made my side
lame. It was like a steel knife runn-
ing through the flesh. I rubbed in
lots of Nerviline and was completely
cured. A regular snap for Nerviline
to ease Sciatica and rheumatism. It
sinks into the core of the pain, cures
it in short order. Large 25c bottles at
all dealers,

The annual rifle matches of the 32nd
Bruce Regiment will be held at Walk-
erton on the 10th and 20th of Septem-
ber.
Mr. Rod'k McKenzie of the 2nd con.
delivered a four -yeas -old heavy horse
in Paisley last Saturday for the hand-
some price of $300.
The Teeswater-Walkerton stage
changed hands last Saturday. Rich'd
Harrison is the present owner and he
is also driver for the present.
The C. P. R. agent here reports that
the number who took advantage of
the excursion to the Toronto Exhibi-
tion this year has very greatly over-
run the average of past years.
Win. McKay, word of whose death
at Kenora was received here last
week by his father, Mr. Donald Mc-
Kay, died after a short illness from
typhoid fever. The body did not come
to Teeswater for interment as was
expected.
In some parts of Scotland it is cus-
tomary for a bride to bring a dower
to her husband, no natter how little.
One couple who had experienced the
strife of v edded bliss for some years,
were having the usual row, when the
husband taunted the lady with the
paucity of worldly goods with which
she had endowed him.
"Awa 1" said he. "When ye marrit
me a' ye brought was a cask o' whis-
key an' the aulci Bible.
"Weer, Jock," was the response,
"gin ye had paid as muckle attention
to the book as ye did tee the whiskey,
ye would hae been a nteenister 0' the
gospel the noo."
