Say, we got in some swell
Spring Suitings last week..
They are right up to the mo-
meat.
Coats are two inches longer than
Iast year, and the lapels are so�uluch
broader and deeper that you cant help
but notice them.
The vests are cut with five buttons,
The pants are just a little pegtoppy.
They are beauties alright for $15,
$18 and $20, and no matter where you
go you can't find anything that will
fit as nicely as they do.

It will be remembered that some
weeks ago it was mentioned that a,
rare animal in these parts, an otter,
was caught neer Hensel' by an Indian.
This week Game Warden James Beer
of town, knowing that an Indian had
no more privileges than a white man
in the matter of catching game out of
season unless it be on. his reservation
and then only for the sustenance of
himself and family, traced the matter
to the Indians, named Brant and Sim-
on, who were encamped in Tucker -
smith township. On being questioned
they acknowledged having caught the
animal and having sold the fur to a
gentleman in Seaforth. On Tuesday
Mr. Beer went to Seaforth andlaid the
information against the buyer,. Wm,
a magistrate,' and
McDougall, before
be.imposed the minimum .fine of $20
and costs, $24 in all. The fur was not
secured by the warden owing to its
having been purchased by aNew York
firm and shipped to them. The Judi-
ans have not yet been prosecuted, but
such may be clone at any time should
the Chief 'Warden desire to make an.
example of them. The law provides
that the fine in their case may be the,
same as for buying the fur, from $20°
to $50, but Mr. Beer being a kind-
hearted man and the Indians being in
extreme poverty, he would be lenient
if permitted to be. •
1.0. O. F. Institution at Blyth.
A very pleasant and instructive
evening was.spent by some twenty-five
of the members of. Exeter Lodge, I. O.
0, F., at Blyth on Wednesday of last
week, when Blyth Lodge No. 366, was
instituted. The'initatory and Second
Degrees were put on by the Exeter
Lodge in a creditable manner, while
Brussels Lodge conferred the First and
Third Degrees in a like manner.
Grand Master Blewett of Listowel con-
ducted the ceremony of institution af-
ter which the officers were elected and
duly installed by D. D. G. M. Fraser
of Brucefield and D. D. G. M. Porter
of Listowel. After the business was
over interesting addresses were deliv-
ered by the Grand Master, the D. D.
G. M's., Assistant Grand Secretary
Powley, Organizer Neilson and several
of the visiting brethren from Wing -
ham, Goderich, Clinton, Brucefield
aed Exeter. Blyth Lodge starts off
with a membership , of twenty-five,
nineteen of whom were made Oddfel-
lows on the evening in question. Their
Noble Grand is an old Exeter boy,
Peter Gardiner, of the firm of Popple -
stone and Gardiner. , The lodge owes
its existence mainly. to the efforts of
Bro. S. A.;Popplestone of ExeterLodge
one of the most enthusiastic Oddfel-
lows in Canada, and a candidate for
the chair of Junior Warden of the
Grand Lodge of.Ontario,._.Bro. Pop-
plestone has been residing in Blyth
only since the beginniug of the year
and his early success in having a lodge
instituted there speaks well for him as
an Oddfellow. Many of the Exeter
brethren feel grateful tO Mr. and Mrs.
Popplestone and Mr. and Mrs. S. Gid -
ley for their kind entertainrneut of
them owing to the crowded state. of
the hotels. "May Blyth. Lodge see a
long Iife of prosperity and usefulness."

The Zurich Herald says. "Jacob

sent a curiosity to this office on Tues-
day which is well worth seeing. It is
a large deck egg, measuring l0ij inches
in circumference lengthwise and 8S'in-
ches around the centre. This in it-
self is extraordinary, but the peculiar
part of it is that inside of this large
shell is another egg, as big as the ord-
inary duck egg, and this egg is also
encased in a shell. It is indeed a cur-
ious thing, and but for the fact that
we have the real egg in the office at

ed it to be possible."

A reactionary storm period is cent-

who have studied our forecasts for
some time, are familiar with the fact
that the states in which tornadic

tive, are in what we call the focus sol-
ar energy during the month of May.
The Mars and -Mercury disturbances,
blending with this annual tendency,

Arbor Day was taken advantage of
at the school here on Friday afternoon
by the teachers and scholars, and the
grounds cleaned up. On the comple-
tion of the work they all took a romp -
in the woods on a nature study excur-
sion. This is the season of the year
when the woods show their greatest
attraction for the nature lover, the
grass is greening, the buds are opening
and the spring flowers are blooming.
Much pleasure may be derived by old
and young through a walk out where
nature is allowed her own sweet will.
New life is shown on every side and
one becomes refreshed and invigorated
by such an outing.
