on the farm on the 14th con, which
ever afterwards continued to be 'his
home.

tent ' member of the Holrnesville
Methodist church and for very many
years was both a class leader and a
trustee. He was regular in his at-
tendance at divine worship and did
all in hispower to advance the var-
ious interests of the church.

township. The late Mrs. William

Here is an opportunity seldom offered on early spring buss=
nese in the face of a rising market, Up to the present time
the 'public have not come in contact with the advanced prices
of leather goods, because the advances have not been serious

The time is not far distant however when the consumer will
actually be np against•higher prices for all kinds of leather
goods, and the prospects are that high prices will rule for
considerable time.
