The min- isters of the various denominations and the undertakers have signed and published an agreement to discontinue attendance at funeralsheld on Sunday Cases of extreme necessity are except- ed.

She is on a fair way to recovery at present. A merchant in Clifford, Ont,, offered a respectable young woman twenty would yards of Bili: fora dress if she \ v o l sang half a cord of wood ire front of his store. She borrowed a caw, spit on her hands, and went through that wood pile just in three hours, and the admir- ing crowd bonght her a $try hat to go with the dress, and within a week she had seventeen offers of marriage.

Some 72 funerals occurred Sunday and an equal number on Mon- day. There is a dearth of hearses end carriages, Ordinarily the death rate shows 25 per cent. youths: now, how• ever, it shows 25 per cent. aged, show - that the dreaded disease is most fatal with increasing years. Many well- known old citizens are reported clan- gerously i11. The grippe in fatat cases runs into pneumonia with subsequent deaths. n Saturday last Mr. William and aur Coates, sons of Thomas Coates, of Usborne, drove to London with a load of pork for the market and after • div posing of it drove as far as the Carling brewery for the purpose of securing some seed barley*, after tying the horses they entered the building, and to their surprise on' retureing found the team gone. Diligent search was at once made, but of no' avail, after which a police was put on , the track, who managed to run the guilty part- ies down, otie being an. Indian. They were taken to the police station to' await their trial. Both were under the influence of liquor. Who can tell the value of a smile? It costs the giver nothing, it is beyond price to the erring and unrelenting,the sad and cheerless, the lost and forsak- en. It disarms malice, subdues tem per, and turns hatred to love, revenge to kindness, and paves the darkest path with gems of sunlight. A smile on the brow betrays a kind heart; a pleasant friend, anaffectionate brother, a duti- ful son and a happy husband. It adds a charm to beauty, decorates the face of the deformed, and makes a lovely woman resemble an angel in paradise. Another of Exeter's young gentle- men has distinguished himself as a man of skill and industry, we wish to make mention of Mr. D, Arnold Bower- man, formerly a resident of this place, and son of Mr. I. Bowerman now liv- ing here. Fe successfully passed the final examination at the Chicago Col lege of Dental Surgeons, and had con- ferred upon him the degree of Doctor of Dental Surgery, and we uftderstand that through his great success he was offered, and has accepted a situation in a lar„e Western Town. We feel sorry to loose him, and may good fort une favor him throughout his business life. The Dimond Vaudervilles have been giving entertainments in the Opera House here for the past week, Prof. J. E. Gardner, who was here some time ago with a similar company, has the management of the troupe.

McNulty, the Irish and Dutch Comedian in his songs and dan- ces brought forth roars of laughter from all parts of the house. This latter gentleman composes all his own songs and music, his latest song which is en- titled "Mother I'll take care of you," is just published, and we would say. to all lovers of sentimental music, that they should procure a copy, as it is well worthy of a place in every household. Now thet the census is about to be talten, some; information about it may not be amiss,: The work will commence next Monday, kith inst. The statesical year ends on that date, For 'instance, a birth say on April 7th, will not 'be included in the record. This also will apply to deaths.

The remains were interred in the Exe- ter cemetery on Sunday last, and the esteem inwhich the deceased was held as well as the sympathy felt for the bereaved widow and faintly, was well manifested by the large number both from town and country who attended the funeral.

Mr. Hurdon in accepting the office stated that he hoped at the next meeting some arrangements would be made by which the labor or canvassing and collecting would be shared by a committee and not left solely to the church warden as in the past. The Rector then appoint ed Mr. Spackman his warden stating that their relations for nearly six years had been of the happiest nature. Mr Spackman in a brief speech returned thanks and accepted the position. On motion of the two church wardens after an unanimous vote the Secretary was requested to give the thanks of the par- ish in vestry assembled to Mr. Trivitt for his splendid gift of a peal and chime of ten bells to the church which were rung for the 'first time in Decem• bei of last year: Also to the Guild per Mrs, R.
