His condition gradually became worse, and in spite of careful treatment and care his life ebbed slowly away. OnThursday last at one o'clock, he quietly and peace- fully breathed his last. The remains, followed by many sorrowing friends and relatives, were taken to Exeter cemetery. Mr. Lewis was one of Orediton's oldest settlers. For many years he has been one of its most es- teemed and respected inhabitants, for he has been a kind friend to many, and an enemy to none. The church loses in Mr. Lewis, one of its oldest mem- bers and supporters. The esteem and sentence. A late issue of the Algoma Pion- eer records the death of Joseua Belchet. purser on the steamer Atlantic, which ran to the Sault. Deceased was a cons - in of E. Belcher of this town.

To Advertisers. The benefit derived from an .adver tiseraent depends altogether npon the number of persons who read it. To reach the tereatest number of readers at the least possible expense, IS a. question that should be coasidered very carefully by business men. A thousand snaali -printed in Tor- onto or London, and. distributed iu this seetion, would be just as effective as if the bill had been printed in town. There is not a doubt, about that, but if you want to reach the people in their homes, newspaper advertising is the only .successfril way. To get the best results use the paper with the largest circulation, mad thegreatest amount of local news. Oirctilation is the proper basis upon whichpricesshould be fixed. If a newspaper with a circulation of 2,000 charges 5100 per year, then one ed to 530. Au advertiser shordd take these facts xnto careful consideration, when making contracts. Another fre- quent toss to advertisers is in the use of several papers when one covers the ground. THE TI11.1ES is read by more people in Exeter, UsbOrne, Stephen, Hay, the northern part of Biddulph and McGillivray than all other county papers combined, and. an advertise- ment placed in will be found the most effectual way in which to reach the people.
