McGee & Campbell Clothiers and Men's Furnishers I On common fences the continuous wire stays are sure to bend and the locks to lose their grip under continual pres- sure of your horses or cattle. And once they do, the top wire, soon followed by those below, will sag and destroy the efficiency of your fence. Nothing like that can happen to our Dillon Hinge -Stay Fence. The short, stiff hard steel wiro in our hinge -stays cannot bend when the lateral wires are • weighted down, owing to their being so short and jointed at each strand wire. Pressure of a horse on the top wire brings the "hinges" in the stays into action and prevents them from bending, and when pressure is relieved the fence springs book into place again, The lateral wires aro High -Carbon Hard Steel and coiled to provide for expansion and contraction by heat and cold, and are also crimped at the intersection of the stays and strands to prevent the stays from slipping sideways—therefore no locks aro needed. Buy the Dillon Hinge -Stay Fence. It's "twice as strong." Twice as good an investment. Catalogue free. • The Owen Sound Wire Fence Co:, Limited, Owen Sound, Ont. ILLONff'irosTAr drzlICE W. J.

THE SPECTACLE PEDLAR. d The hotel-keepexw of town aeknow- (Contr'ibuted for the Advance) 1 ledged before Police Magistrate An Brews violations of the license Act e and fines were imposed accordingly , four being fined $50 earls and one SIO r and costs, ' With the company of spring, the spectacle pedlars and others of that ' ilk have once more become active. Every concession, line and side -road are now infested by these gentry. The unfortunate fanners' wives and daughters are the chief victims of these conspirators against the public health, The attempt to check the ravages of tuberculosis by the authori- ties is most praiseworthy; to protect the public from having the eyesight injured or ruined would be a still more worthy project. The wearing of improperly fitted or unsuitable glasses is a serious danger to the eye- sight and a menace to the general health. All diseases of the eye and of the nervous system are made worse by wearing unsuitable glasses, and many diseases are caused by it, See- ing the importance of the eyesight and nervous system to the general health some measure of protection at least should be given to the public. Instead of protecting the public health, the spectacle pedlar is allowed to infest every road in the country and to intrude into every home. An ignorant, blatant braggart, when once he gains admission into the home, nothing will induce himto leave until he has changed some of his yellow -looking goods for the farmer's hard eartia cash. The spectacle ped- lar knows nothing about the phy- siology or pathology of the eye, and cares as little, so long as he can palm off on the public his glassware, To preserve the eyesight, leave the spec- tacle pedlar's goods alone. The simplest plan to get rid of him is not to permit him to enter the house, These pedlars are mostly foreigners, and of a very undesirable class. The Council has decided not to rent the stores in the Town Hall, and the - space now nsed as stores will be fitted up for municipal purposes. The e Council has placed the fee for tran- sient traders at $150, and for hawkers - and pedlars at $ii0, $3,000 will be l spent this year on the streets. The Masonic brethern took posses- sion of their new hall on Friday even• ing last. The ball, situated over the Sovereign Bank, is conveniently locat- ed, commodious, richly furnished, ' brilliantly lighted, well heated, in short it is an ideal fraternal home and the brethern are well pleased with it, The death of Mrs. Henry Baker on Monday morning carne as a great shock to our citizens The operation she had undergone was successfully performed and her condition was satisfactory, but during the night a relapse came and not being strong enough to withstand it, she passed peacefully away. A man who was well known to the citizens of Clinton died suddenly at Cross Hill on Monday evening in the person of Mr, J. H, Elford, formerly of Holrnesville. He was seemingly as well as usual duril.g the day, but in the evening complained of weakness and laid down, but a few minutes afterwards he became unconscious, from which he never recovered. D. French has resigned his position as manager of the county house of re- fuge at Clinton, and the house of re- - fuge committee of the county council meets on Thursday to consider the matter. Mr. French is going to Ed- monton, where his son is located. He has been in charge of the house of refuge ever since its establishment and has been a must capable officer.

Donald McErachen, tax col- - lector for the township of Elderslie, says, that if the exodus to the West keeps on much longer, there will be scarcely anybody left in the Tp. at all. Already about half the farms are without tenants, and on one line, in a i stretch of two miles and a half, there is just one lone farmer living. As.a matter of fact according to this year's assessment roll the population is only 1 2018, whereas in 1880 it was 3271, a I falling off of 62 per cent. in 27 years, These figures are startling, and the worst of it is the departure of old set- tlers is going on as rapidly as ever. By this time next year the population' of Elderslie will not likely be more', than about 1800. Just why people should leave Elderslie in such large numbers it is difficult to understand, for it is one of the best townships in the whole county. It's a case of green fields in the distance.

Fowles of Fowles' Corners, Ont., who says : "I used to be subject to attacks and although I used most everything nothing relieved quickly till I discov- ered Nerviline. I have used it for . pleurisy and sore chest and found it just the proper thing. For Lumbago or Neuralgia it's quick as lightning, I cheerfully recommend Nerviline."

Years ago they fought catarrh by internal dosing. They saw this ruin- ed the stomach and changed to the ozonated air cure, better known as Oa- tarrhozone. This treatment is sure to cure. It goes to the source of the disease; it destroys the causes that maintain catarrh and even in the worst cases permanent cure is guaran- teed. Failure with Catarrlxozone is impossible.

He didn't come home, however, and for fourteen years his mother and broth- ers had given him up for dead, never again expecting to bear of him, It would be difficult to imagine their surprise and joy when last week, through the kind offices of a friend, they learned that Peter Lawrence was a 1 e BARGAINS IN MEN'S SUITS.— Men's Fancy English Tweed Suits, very pretty patterns, well made, good strong linings.

Your PAST, PRESENT and IN- DICATIONS of FUTURE events, as marked in your hand by Nature, correctly delineated. MARRIAGE ADAPTATIONS EXPLAINED, Palmistry is mentioned 1433 times in the Bible and was practiced 2t55 years B. C. The most careless observer nnlst perceive that the hands differ in their shape and lines—for there are no two hands alike—the fingers, palms, lines, etc„ differ as greatly in different people as the noses, eyes, hau', ears, lips and teeth differ ; as the will, manner, step and gait differ ; so the characters differ also. By the outcome of their charac- teristics, their natural characteristics, their characters are formed. A call on Prof. O'Brien will prove to the most skeptical that Palmistry is a pure science and has no connection with the vulgar fortune telling. Don't miss consulting him, as it may be years before you will have the chance of consulting such an eminent man in his profession.
