• Mr. I-Iy. Beacom, of Goderich town -

• and on his return showed .the Clinton
News -Record a,pear measuring 12t x
• 101 inches grown on the farm of Mr.
E. Pollock, Huron • township. It
seemed about as large as a pair of
ordinary pears.
Practical Christianity
The W. C. T. U.,, of Owen Sounnd,
• have erected in the town two drinking
• fountains costing $60 eacts and a
watering trough for horses costing
• 825-90. This is practical ehristianity
and the women who go to work so
_ ssvigorously and in such a common
• sense way are bound to make theta-
• .
• selves a power in the community.
The World's Fair
• Our many readers will be pleased to
hear that our old and respected former
townsman, Dr. Mc0rimmon, of Under-
wood, has been appointed a Director
of the General Committee of the
World's Fair Scottish Games, which
takes"place in Chicago in 1893. The
great Scottish games are to be held
under the auspices of the Highland
'Association of Illinois. We extend
our congratulations to the worthy
• doctor on his appointment.
Rescued the Perishing
The marine Department has been
notified of a gallant deed performed
• last week by the crew of the life saving
station at Goderich, by which six, lives
were saved from a watery grave. The
schooner Bavaria, Capt. 84 Fraser,
bound from Toledo to Kingston with
coal, ran ashore near Goilerich, and
the crew were iniminent peril, when
the brave fellows from the life saving
• station went out on the rolling waves
and rescued them all, the captain,
mate and four sailors. • The ship,
which was a total loss, was valued at
$6,000.

Snake Tea
The family of M r. Wilkinson had a
very unenviable experience one even-
ing last week. About tea time the
kettle was taken to the pump, filled
with water and placed on the stove.
A few minutes later a very offensive
• ordor was noticed throughout the
house but no one could tell the reason.
Tea was made from the water taken
from the kettle and drank by the
family. When emptied of the Water
the kettle was- found to contain a
water snake about a foot long, Np
harm other than mortified feelings has
resulted. —Leamington Post.
Loan Association
A notice has been sent to the mem-
bers ot the ,local branch of • the
Dominion Building and Loan Associa-
tion in the village, that a special
general meeting of the shareholders is
to be hold on Monday, Nov. 30th, in
Toronto. The objects of the meeting
are stated to be to allow the name of
the association to be used as defend-
ent in the suitbrought against the
directors by the shareholders, and to
consider an amendment by which the
directors shall be reduced from nine to
seven. The notices urgently request
all the shareholders to attend the
meeting, as grave issues are involved.

Should Be_Stopped____ _
We have heard a good deal of com-
plaint against boys annoying a. couple
of parties in the village, by shouting
after them on the streets, calling
names, etc. The offenders are well
,known and if the practice is continued
an example will be made of them
a stop to the nuisance.
The Janitor Absent
"I am compelled to announce, breth-
ren," observed the minister, taking off
his glasses and wiping them, "that our
regular -Wednesday evening prayer -
meeting will not be held this week.
I shall. be on hand, •of course, but the
caretaker will be unavoidably absent
that evening and it takes two to make
a prayer -meeting. We will sing the
doxology and be dismissed.
Oanadian Foresters
The Canadian Orderssot-Toretrers
have paid in °death claims since June
last $15,000 to beneficiaries of deceased
utiraTnVir r1.12.e) Over.
$:27,000. • Adding this sum to the
balance on hand makes the handsome
total of $171,609 to the credit of the
•enclownment account. which is kept
for the payment of death claims.
New Orange Hall„
The members of the Orange Lodge
in this village have purchased from
Mr. Fred. Grundy the frame building
on Campbell street, next to Alex.
Davison's furniture warerooms, and
intend fixing it up for a lodge room.
The building is conveniently located,
and •when completed will not only
make a first class -hall, but will also
add a good deal to the appearance of
the main street.
He's a Fraud •
"A well-fed looking fellow claiming
to be the inventor of a method for
chromatic printing by a single im-
pression --was in town from Saturday
to Menay. He is glib of tangne,
with Th, Yankeefield English accent,
and wears a prominent nose and a
moustache, and means to beat every
time. The Signal wants its Contem-
poraries to pass the fellow round as a
fraud of the first magnitude.'-s•Goder-
ich Signal. This slick -looking gentle-
man visiting Lucknow, but the SENTIN-
EL didIA bite worth a cent.
Again Insane
The young man Albert White, who
was sent to •iValkerton jail some time
ago as a 1,unatic, from this village, and
who was liberated a week or two ago,
on the recommendation of the Grand
Jury, is again insane. He is not safe
at any time to be at liberty, and the
Walkerton officials should have sent
him to the asylum in London. He is
now confined in the village lock-up
awaiting the necessary papers for his
removal to London, and unless they
arrive shortly he will have to be again
taken to Walkerton jail for safe
keeping. .
Electric Light
At a special meeting; of the village
council on Monday evening last, Mr.
W. Stewart accepted the council's
terms to put up three more arc lights
on the streets, which makeseleven in
all. The new lights are to be placed
on Campbell, Havelock and Outram
streets, near the corners of Bob, Rose
and Gough streets. There is not
another village in, the Dominion, with
the same population as Lucknow, that
has much more than haltithe number
of electric lights on its streeth as we
have. In fact very few towns can
boast of eleven arc lights for street
purposes.
A Beautiful Monument
The beautiful monument erected in
Dungannon cemetery last week to the
memory of the late John Cameron, of
West Wawanosh,by his old neighbors
and friends, speaks loilder- than mere
words of praise to the many sterling
cinalities of one who was honored and
respected by all. John Cameron was
a name known to all in the forest days
of this conntry, and friencl and
stranger alike always 'found a' hearty
welcome to share his hospitality. The
monument, which is a fitting tribute to
his memory, is of Aberdeen granite,
seven feet high above the foundation,
with the name and date in handsome
gilt letters, The whole work is
artistically done, and reflects much
credit on the committee who had
charge of the affair, as well as to its
maker, Mr. J. A. Robertson, marble
dealer, of Goderich.

and then without settling up, hie to
another store and repeat the Operation.
—Solomon forgot to touch up the
fool that carries a joke too far. There
are some men who don't seem to be
able to tell where fun ends and buf-
foonery begins. They lack that nicety
of adjustment that, prevents a joke be-
coming an insult. There witticisms
turn in sarcasm, their humor into acri-
mony, and their practical jokes degens
erate into stupid cruelty. We meet
these men every day. They joke about
business, and toss business men's repu-
tations from the end of , their tongues
like an acrobat in a ditne museum the
ball from the. tips of their toes. fhey
make religion a butt for 'stupid jests,
when God knows their shallow souls
have not depth enough to float an idea
