CLINTON: IXADS, At Doig's granite works there has junt; been Mashed, in light grey granite, a Celtic cross eleven feet high, rich in the completeness of the details of its order. The interlacing is a work or high merit, and the in- scribing is finished in raised lead letters. This is, we believe', Ole first time this lintel) of letter has been executed in Huron county, and it is used only on the: more costly class of work. These letters are eepensive, but, as their name implies—"Imper- ishalde lead letter"—they are there for all time, lead being the moot en- during of metals. This is the only effective letter in light coloured gran- ite, the dark lead showing distinctly against the light back -ground. Mr. .Doig's bookings this season have mostly been for. heavy . work and have come in from the north, west and south and, include an, elegant and costly monument that will have few Peers in any cemetery in Huron. His practical knowledge of the busineee is securing for him a desirable, class of patronage..

This instru- ment will hare to travel nicely, thous- ands of mtlee by rail and Water and then many miles over rough roads before arriving at its destination but it is carefully constructed, will stand the severest teat of climate, and no doubt will give as good eaVelaction in China as. in Canada.
