Prettily Dressed Windows.
The windows of the store occupied
by the Keeler Co., as decorated for
Easter, were exceedingly attractive,
eviclencing'not only esthetic taste but
skill in the art of window dressing.
Especially appropriate for the Easter
season was the design "Gates Ajar"
in the south window. This was deco-
rated in white to resemble Out stone.
In a beautiful archway, were the
pretty gates, standing ajar. Looking
through the gateway, a, massive cross
was Visible. around which twined at
vine. Through an aperture in the
dressing, from the door way at night,
might be seen a representation of the
Star of the East shining upon the
cross. It was a very pretty desigh,
admirably carried out. In the other
window, also dressed in white, there
were two arches. Under one, was
the form of a little girl feeding at Bock
of dainty -white chickens. "Under the
other, another little one was repre-
sented driving ateam of white rabbits,
The working out of the pretty designs
must have taken much tirne, thought:
and skill. These pretty windows were
admired by all who saw them.
Tltottghtftlity, the blinds were drawn
on Saturday night on the north win-
dow, so that the cross with "gates
ajar" might be the appropriate Mid
only attraction for Taster, thus lead-
ing the thought of the beholder to the

A Good Man Gone.
On Monday of this week, one of
Wingham's aged and highly respected
residents passed to his reward at the
advanced age of 73, Mr. David Camp-
bell. Deceased was a native of the
county of Down, Ireland, where he
was born in October, 1831. On July
26th, 1854, he was married to Miss
Ann McClenaghan. To there were
born four sons and eight daughters; of
these one son and two daughters are
dead. During the summer of 1861,
Air. and Mrs. Campbell with their
fancily left their native land and came
to Wingham. Here he found employ -
Ment with Mr. Peter Fisher of the
Wingliant woollen mills, as teamster,
and gave faithful service ; later he
entered the employ of Mr. A. Fisher,
In July 1873, he unfortunately had
ono arm mangled and broken by being
caught between a belt and a pulley in
the saw -mill. It was at first feared
that the arae would have to be
amputated, but this was avoided,
Far many months, he struggled heroi-
cally with the injured arm to support
his fancily. In 1876, he was awarded
the contract of carrying the mail
from the post -office to the G. T. R.,
and during thirty-nine years gave ex-
cellent satisfaction. It is said of him,
that he was never late, nor did he
ever miss a nail. His familiar figure
will be missed at snail time both at the
office and the station. He was origin-
ally a Presbyterian, but about twenty
years ago, while listening to the Truth
as presented by the Salvation Army
on the street corner, he felt his soul
touched by Divine power and was
soundly converted. His exemplary
and consistent conduct, and Itis faith-
ful labors in connection with the
Army were evidences of his deeply
religions life. He delivered the trail

ADDRESS AND PRESENTATION. - PROMOTION EXAMINATIONS,
Last Thursday evening, a large
number gathered in the lecture room
of the Methodist church to spend an
hour or more in company with Mr.
and Mrs. 3. A, Flaek, who will re-'
move next week to Ciaresholm, Alber-
ta, where their only son resides.. Mr.
and Mrs, Flack have been identified
with. Winghain Methodism front its
earliest years, and have been faithful
devoted workers. Air. Flack has held
the offices of Trustee, local preacher
and class -leader, and in view of this,
and his intended removal, the Official
Board recently appointed a commit-
tee, consisting of Messrs. Buchanan,
Lloyd. and Park, to prepare a testi-
monial, and the program was under
their direction with Mr. Buchanan as
chairman. Mr. Flack had been invit-
ed to give reminiscences of the past,
and he did so in a very interesting
manner. He went back 42 years to
the time when Methodism in Wing -
ham was represented by five persons,
of whom he and the young lady that
afterwards became Mrs. Flack, were
two. He traced the growth of the
Church to its present standing, and
paid a tribute to the faithfulness of
his wife, as helpmate in work, and in-
timated that in the west, he might
still find opportunities for usefulness.
Mr. J. A. Morton then react the fol-
lowing address, which was accompa-
nied by the presentation to Mr. Flack
of a Purse of Gold, as a token of the
esteem in he heldthe
whichwas by
congregation :--
To JosEru A. FLACE, ESQUIRE:—
It is not often that a man is found
who can reside in one locality forty
or more years ; engage in daily busi-
ness and active labor, meeting therein
a large portion of the community;
maintain social relations with friends
and neighbors, and during all that
time retain to the full the highest re-
spect and good will of all with whom
he has been brought in contact. We
have assembled here this evening for
the purpose of doing honor and ren-
dering tribute to one who has fulfilled
in the highest degree the characteris-
tics of such a man—yourself. It is,
however, in your relation to the
Methodist Church, filling as you have
the offices of Local Preacher, Trustee,
Sunday School Superintendent and
Class Leader, that you have been es-
pecially useful, doing your best with
the talents God has given you, assist-
ing in every way you could, the ad-
vancement of the cause of Christ and
His Church in Wingham. Yourpray-
ers and testimonies have ever been a
help and inspiration to all who were
present in the social means of grace.
And now we learn with deep regret
that yon and your esteemed wife, who
has been associated so long with you
in the good work, are soon to leave us
for the distant west. We assure you
that you are leaving behind you a
host of friends who desire your high-
est interest in your new field of life.
We feel certain you can never be an
idler in the Vineyard of the Lord,
wherever your lot niay be cast. We
ask you to accept this purse as a small
token of esteem, and white we know
that our meeting and parting here is
about over, we trust that someday—
sometime we know not when—we all
shall meet around the Groat White
Throne, and bask in the sunshine of
Eternal day.
Again wishing you every kind of
prosperity, we beg to subscribe our-
selves on behalf the Wingham Metho-
dist Church.
J. R. Gundy, D. D., Pastor.
Wnt. Fessant, Rec. Steward,
Dated Wingham, 20th April, 1005.
A number of those present were
then called on for brief addresses;
some of these had known Mr. Flack
for many years and all testified to his
sterling worth, his devotion to the
Church, and his consistent Christian
character. In those early days, cir-
cuits were large, ordained preachers
few and their visits far between.
Wingham was then an appointment
of the Morris mission and was sup-
plied from 'Blyth. After the toil of
the week, Nr. Flack then devoted
Sundays to the Master's two -Lk, with-
out remuneration or hope ,of reward,
walking to distant appointments
(sometimes ars far as Auburn) or driv-
ing through bog and over corduroy,
ministering to the pioneer in log
school house or settler's shanty. His
visits were always appreciated, and
many eon testify to the help received
from his puipit and class labors.
Among those present on Thursday
evening, who spoke of Mr. and Mrs.
Flack's devotion, were :—Messrs. A.
Reid, T. Gregory, W. Fessant, J. J.
Homuth, Postmaster Fisher (of the
Baptist Church), J. J. Kerr, Principal
Musgrove, 3. A. Morton, Dr. Gundy,
A. E. Lloyd, H. Park, Hiss Reynolds,
Mrs. Bosman, and others whose names
may have slipped our memory. The
proceedings were brought to a close
by singing "God be with you tilt we
meet again," and the benediction.
Wedded in Toronto.

SOME PEOPLE
GET ALONG
Without
but the
practice
cleanser
a spring medicine,
majority make a
of taking a blood
and tonic.
Some need it worse than
others, but not one of us is
there who wouldn't be the
better of a bottle or so of
Dr. Clarke's Blood Purifier.
It tones up the system won-
derfully, stimulates lazy ap-
petites, stirs up digestion—
and helps a person all over.
Don't need to take it all
stunner, Just a bottle or so
to start you going rightly.
