AT PYPER & BEATTIE'S DRY GOODS STORE, Duncan's Old Stand, Main-st., Seaforth, "5rOTT OALSf 13 -CT -417" From all quarters applieations for space at the forthcoming great induetrial Fair to be held at Toronto from the 7th to the 19th of Sep- tember are being sent in by every mail. It is now an assured fact that Canada's Great Fair will this fall outrival any of its predecessors. Never before were there so many entries from the United States, and on no former occasion has such widetpreael interest been manifested in ite emcees. Notwithstanding the fact that new buildings have been erected and old ones en- larged during the past summer, sufficient en- tries have been received to almost fill thews Even Great Britain is beginning to realize that It pays to bring ite manufactures before the people of Canada, as at no place can they be seen by go many, and • several of the leading manufacturers of England have applied for space during the past couple or three weeke at this Exhibition. The railway and steamboat ceenpanies have this year notified the Associa- tion of their intention to give extremely low rates during its progress. A new line ef rail- way into the grounds will enable exhibitors of live stock on both the greet railways to unload within a few yards of the ethek sheds. It is wonderful the suecess that has attended this really great enterprize since its inception four- teen years ago, but it may readily be accounted for by anyone who will take the trouble to examine the prizelist. No less than four-fifths of the many thou- sands of dollars distributed annually go to the farmer and stock raiser; and while no other industry is sighted, this greatest one receives the lion's share, and justly so. The farming COII10.110ity appreciate this and by their .pre- sence at Canada's great gathering every" year endorse the action of the Assoeldtion. While the farmer visiting the Exhibition cannot turn in any direction without seeing something to instruct him, he finds more then that. No pains have been spared to interest and amuse visitors every minute of the day. Manager 'Thayer, of Boston, a man whose reputation in his par- ticular line is continental, has this year added his, vast experience in " assisting to make. the amusements eclipse anything that has ever preceded them. Then again the scientist, the mechanic and the artist will find in the various departments something of special value to them. When it is remembered that over a quarter of a million people from all parts of Canada and the adjoining States visited We Toronto Fair last year, one can readily form an opinion of its gigantic proportions and its im- portance and value to the country at large. 12843-8 One dollar Jerseys at 6Sc ; $1.50 Jerseys at 85c; $2.50 Jerseys at .$1.40, Grey Union Flannels at 10c a yard, wide grey wool Flannels at 16c a yard, extra quality grey Flannels at 19c a yard, Tickings at 9i -c a yard, Cottonades at 10c a yard, blue and brown -Denims at 10c a yard, Cretonnes at 9 -Ac a yard, fall Dress Goods, tweed eflects, at 7c a pard ; fall Dress Goods, tweed effects at 10c a yard ; Dress Goods, tWeed c effects, at 14 a yard; all -woof Dress Serges, open fold, at 19c a yard; all -wool Dress Serges, double fold, at 39c a yard; all wool Cash- mere, double fold, at 24)2,c a yard • Silks and Satins at exactly whole- sale cost; pure Silk Handkerchiefs at 49c each; Ladies' Colored Collars at 3c each, Ladies' White Linen Collars at 5c each, fancy Dress 4Buttons at 5c per dozen, black ,and colored Ivory Buttons at 5c per dozen.

The Y Mend to devote special attention to HEATING FURNACES FACTS For Seaforth people who are not parti- cularly anxious to have to call in an undertaker TO THINK ABOUT. I have been a great sufferer from a female weakness of long standiag, and have been treat- ed by several physicians. and have also been un- der treatment in the Toronto Hospital, and all failed to cure me. I saw a medical book explain- ing the Histogenetic System, and resolved to give it a trial. I consulted Dr. Rear, who pre- scribed these remedies, and aesured me they would -cure me. I had my doubts, but was ere- termined to try once more. I took treatment two weeks, and am utterly astonished at the results.. I am nearly well, and no language can describe how thankful I am that my life is spar- ed. This testimony is voluntary, and I give it hoping that hundreds of my sex may try the medicines and receive the same marvellous good that I have. They are good to take, and, unlike any medicine I ever kook before, leave no bad effects. June 5th, 1890. IdES. deFAWCE1'1', 102 John Street, Toronto. I was attacked with congestion of the liver and inflammation of the kidneys, attended with excruciating pains in ray side and back. Could not lie on either side -could seemly breathe. The slightest movement caused agon- izing pain. Nothing gave me relief. I sent for Dr. Rear, knowing he had cured my daughter of a dangerous illness with Histogenetic Medicine after she had been given up by four skilful phy- sicians. In one week ray pain was gone and liver and kidneys acting as well as ever. The cure is complete. It acts the moat like magic of any medicine I ever took. I sincerely hope that the suffering ladies of Toronto and elsewhere may try the superior merits of these pure and tastelees medicines. My 9bject in giving this testimony is purely through sympathy for the sick and dying. MRS. McCULLOUGH, 604 Adelaide St, east, Toronto.
