MELIS
IS THE BEST.
We have received auother lot
of the famous Melissa Water-
proof Coats, suitable for the
spring and summer wear.
They are beyond a doubt not
only the best but are the only
thoroughly .reliable, healthful,
porous, "odorless rainproof
coats in the market. We
have them in fine tweed pat-
terns of the best material and
are well s-nited for a spring or
fall overcoat.
Our boot and shoe depart-
ment is now complete for
spring, and besides the re-
liable lines which have given
such" good ,satisfaction in wear
in the past, we have added
many new and, fashionable
lines. We are showing a fine
fancy cloth top shoe for ladies
wear and are handling the
famous Beaver. Brand hand
turned Dongolas-- every ,pair
gu.arant eed.
In groceries, granulated
sugar is going fast at ,21 lbs.
for $1. Our Silver Ceam
baking powder is gMng
general satisfaction. We re-
commend a trial, from those
who have not already used it.
We sell it at 25c per pound.
We have received a consign -
mens of raisins which we are
clearing out at 75e per box.
We write you to call and see
our goods.

Spring is Here.
Now that the chipmunks have made
their appearance we may make up our
minds that spring has, really come.
The robin sometimes ventures out too
soon and is deceived by the appear-
ance of things, but the chipmunk is a
cute little fellow, who knows a thing
or two, and looks very sober as he sits
on the fence reading the almanac of
nature.
Sad Death.
The :death of Mrs. Pincombe, wife of
Mr. Wm. Pincomb.e, of the furniture
factory, and daughter of Mr. Keltin,
of this village, was a sad blow to her
husband and friends. The remains,
were interred in the Kinloss cemetery
on 'Saturday ,afternoon last, and was
followed thither by a large procession
of sortowing relatives and friends.

Pushing the Work. -
The workmen are busy at Cain's
new hotel,andthe 'work is going on well.
There, are about 1 men employed and
the building will soon be ready for
occupation: It will be a credit to he
place when completed.
For Detroit.
Mr. Arthur McGrory and some of
the family left on Tuesday for Detroit,
their future home. He took a car
load of stuff with him. Lou. and
Maud left on Wednesday; and quite
a number of young people were at the
early train to see their school -mates
off and to wish them well.
.Farewell Sermon
Having received and accepted the
unanimous call of the Clinton and Base
Line Baptist Churches, -my labors in
connection with the Lucknow Baptist
church will cease next Sunday evening
when the farewell sermon willbe
preached. A cordial invitation is ex-
tended to friends. Yours truly, Rev.
J. B. McKinnon.
'Spring Show
Don't forget the spring, show of
entire horses in the village on Tuesday
next, under the auspices of the Kinloss
Branch,Agricultural Society. Over
$60 will be given in' prizes, besides
the handsome silver medal and diploma
for the best horse in any class. The
groundsare in splendid condition and
if the weather continues favorable a
large crowd wilr be in the village.
They Checked the Kids. ,
Our merchants. might make a note
of the fact that in Harlem women go
to the store with their babies, get them
checked and do their shopping in com-
fort. If the baby is in a carriage a
boy gives a check for it and amuses
the youngster until its mother has
finished her shopping. If it is not in
a carriage it is amused in the. same
way inside the store. The plan, it is
said, is working well for both store-
keepers.and mothers.
House. Burned
The residence of Mr. Martin McIn-
ness, of the 2nd Con. of Kinloss,
together with all its contents was
totally destroyed by fire on Saturday
last. The fire originated near the
stove -pipe in the rear partOfthe build-
ing, and owing to the high wind blow-
ing at -the time the flames spread with
great rapidity, and in a few minutes
the whole structure was enveloped in
a blaze. We understand there was no
insurance on the building or its con-
tents.' Fifty dollars in cash was also
destroyed.
Green Goods
"Strictly, confidential" circulars from
"green goods'" men. are being sent
through the mails of Ontario by the
hundreds. Al CO 0$ t every .Week in
looking through .our • exchanges we
read of someone receiving such .circu-
lars, accompanied by a bogus news-
paper clipping which attempts to show
how easily the business could be
carried on withont'detectionin defiance
of the law. Lueknowites are not ex-
empt from these ,offers though they
have sense enough to take no notice of
them.
Sucker Fishing.
Sucker fishing season, has come in
and large hauls are being made'from
the 18 mile creek. On Monday night
a party from Lucknow composed of
Dr. Tennant, :A. Morrison, M. Camp-
bell, jr.; Alex. Campbell, Kenny Mc-
Jeod, Jerry Flynn, R. Moore'.11furd.
lers, Bert. McCorvie, and John
,..carry went down :to Pritchard's
' and brought home, (One account
says) 408, and another 334. There iq
also some slight divergence as to the
size of the fish. This, however, must
be expected in fishing accounts, but
they had a good time.
And He Fired Him •
An editor died and slowly wended
his way to 'where he. thought a warm
reception awaited him. The devil
met him at. the •door and said: "For
many years thou hast borne the blame
for the errors that the printers made
in the paper: The paper has, ''crone,
alas! The one dollar' has often failed
to come in. The printers have be-
deviled thee for wages on Saturday
iiighk when thou hadst not a cent to
thy name. Men have taken the
paper without paying for it, and
cursed thee for not getting up a better.
paper. Thou has been called a dead-
beat and fraud by men that were both,
all these things thou hast borne in
silence. Thou canst come , here
And, he ,fired him. As he did so he
niirrnured to himself: "Heaven' is his
home; and besiduq if we had" let lihn
come in here he would have been eon-
tinually dunning his delinquent sub-
scribers, and thus,. create a discord in

Lodge in -this village will celebrate -the
73rd anniversary of the Order in Am-
erica by attending divine services in
the English Church, on Sunday,

His 73rd Birthday.
Monday last was, the 73rd birthday
of Lucknow's worthy postmaster, Mr.
Malcolm Campbell. Although nbt so
strong since he had an unfortunate
stroke of paralysis a few years ago, we
are pleased to say he is still in the
enjoyment of good health. The SENTI-
NEL hopes to see the old Pioneer en-
iby many years of vigor.
Foresters' Funeral
The funeral of the late Duncan Mc-
Dougall, was largely attended on
Saturday Afternoon last. The deceased
was only a young man of 25 years,
but has suffered for long months with
an affection of the brain, and which
he bore with Christian resignation.
He was a member of the Independent
Order of Foresters, and the brethren
of the lodge marched In a body to the
Kinloss cemetery, and at the grave
performed the last sad rights' very im-
pressively. Deceased was much
esteemed by his associates and friends.

Lambs Dying Off I
A local veterinary states that. the
farmers will have.greater loss in lambs
this year than they have expeienced
for many years past. "Something in
the seoson" is said to be .the cause."
A stock -raiser from East 'Wawanosh
told us on Monday of one man who
was the possessor of twenty fine lambs
all of which died excepting three.
Another man in his vicinity lost about
ten out of eighteen.—Blyth Standard.
We have heard nothing of such shock-
ing morality among lambs in this
district. We think, however, that if
farmers inade a thorough study of the
management of "ewes previous' to
aiid-during the lambing season the
mortality rate would be greatly lessen-
ed. This suggestion, farmers, is
'worthy of your consideration.

Pioneer Gone Home •
It is our painful duty. this week to
record the death of 'Mr. Win. Gardner,
Sr., one of the oldest -residents of the
township of Ashfield, which took place'
at the residence of his, son Mr. J. H.
Gardner,' 12th con. on Monday last.
Deceased was born in the county Ferm-
anagh, Ireland, 82 years ago, and came
to Canada in 1833, and settled in
Toronto township in 1835. He took
an active part in the rebellion of 1837,
and was one the loyal volunteers who
bravely fought for the defence of their
country. In 1854 he removed to
the township of Ashfield, which was
then a dense forest. His house was
alwoys the home of the ministers of
theaGospel, no matter to what denom-
ination they belonged. He was a than
of retired disposition, and was loved
by all who had the pleasure of his
acquaintance. , He was s, life-long
Conservative in politics, and for a
long time his presence will be missed
in the community. His rerthins were
buried in Zion cemetery last Wednes-
day, followed by a large funeral of
sorrowing friends and acquaintandes.
Com.
Clothilde Soupert
Has a comPlexion of thefarest White,
beautifully tinged with pink, with a
delicate, yet fasting fragrance, and
withal a charming and persistent
flowering rose. Asa pot plant it is a
true ever -bloomer, bearing its beautiful
clusters of. blossoms, summer and
winter. As a garden rose it is unsur-
passed for quality or qpantity of its
bloom. It is also entirely hardy.
This truely 'valuable rose will be mailed
to any post Oleo in the Dominion, to -
:ler, with our book of Canadian
clants for Canadian people, beautifully
illustrated; and containing the largest
and most complete list of roses and
other beautiful flowers ever offered in
Canada, upon receipt of twenty -fl ve
cents. A book that should be in the
hands of every flower lover in the
Dominion. Address ;Webster Drys.,

The Troug Season
According to Mr. HardST's new Bill
for the Protectioc oti Provincial Fish
eries, "no person gfillt1 take or catch
or kill or carry away a greater number
than 30 speckled or brook trout, in
any one day, or more speckled or
brook trout. than ,in the az,gregate
weigh more than 1p pounds, in any
one day. No person shall kill, dr,c., any
speckled or brook- trout of- less than
five inches. But when any such, trout
of a length of less than five inches shall
be taken or caught, the same shall be
forthwith returned to the water by
the person taking or catching the
same, without unnecessary injury."
The impression that the season opened
on the lst of April, this year,,is wrong.
Sub -section 2, section 130 of the Act
says: "The close season for speckled
trout is between the 15th day of Sep-
tember and theist day of May." A
copy of the bill can be ' seen at the
SENTINEL Office.
