Mrs. W. Dayis met with rather a painful

as could be expected. "

Temperance convention will be held in
the town hall, Clinton; 'on Friday, May
28th, commencing at 10 o'clock, a.- m.
Every temperance worker in the county
is cordially invited td be present; as mat-
ters of importance are likely to be dis-
cussed there should be a large attendance
from all parts of the county. ,
• PROPERTY CHANGE.—The property be-
longing to. the estate of the late IL B.
Evans, was put up•by auction; here, on
Saturday last, and both lots disposed of.

store thereon, . was sold to :Mr,., Fames.
Moore, of Kippen, for $200. Lots 888.884,

ments, etc. If trees were planted along,
the new. walk to the cemetery, in the
course of a very short time a• nice avenue
would be formed, and a visit. to' the ceme-
tery would not: be accompanied with the
inconvenience of walking :beneath a boil-
ing.sun. ' We understand that Mr.. -Webb
has resigned his position as caretaker of
the cemetery,' and parties wishing work
done there should notify Mr. Paisley.,
