ODDFELLOWSHIP. —
Clinton Lodge No. 83,
passed its 23yd mile-
stone on Tuesday last,
and celebrated the event by having one
of the largest gatherings of Oddfeliows
in the history of the Lodge, Brethren
were present from the followinglodges:
Seaforth, Goderich, Exeter, Hensall,
Brucefield,• Torpnto, Loudoh, and one
brother front Winnipeg. The main at-
traction was to see the work done by
the degree teams of Exeter and Gode-
rich Lodges, captained by Bros. S. A.
Popplestone and Chas. Nairn, for their
respective teams. The Clinton ln►eth-
ren have been looking forward for some
time, expecting to see something fine,
but they had no idea of experiencing
anything like the exhibition given on
Tuesday evening. Exeter gave the
work of the Initiatory and Second de-
grees, Goderich the First and Third de-
grees. Three candidates were initiated
and degrees conferred upon them.—
After the work was over, the Lodge
had refresh,nents served,, 'and after-
wards speeches and songs were the or-
der of the evening. The gathering dis-
persed at an early hour, after spending
one of the most pleasant evenings ex-
perienced in connection with the lodge.
NOTES.—Mr H. E. Maddock, of New-
market, who spent some time here as
manager for the Mara Company, was
married last week to Miss M. E. Jack-
son, of Brussels. Nor and Mrs John
Oakes entertained ""a-}Rige number of
their friends from the Maitland con-
cession one evening last week. There
should be a good demand in town for
houses this year; who is going to sup-
ply it? there are no vacancies of im-
portance. Mrs J. Graham and Mrs
Stewart, of Blyth, are visiting at the
eesidence of Mr J. Oakes. Mr Samuel

Just a Reminder
•
We do not want you to forget that.this,sale is Still in progress
and will continue till Feb. lst So far it has been a decided
success. The proverbial January dullness -has not been telt
here, the kind of values we give create trade.
It's just this way about our winter goods, we have either to
sell them now or carry them over to next season. If we do
that, -it means they will take up valuable room all summer,
that will cost money to insure them, that they will depreciate
in value, •that next season they will be old goods, and that
they will lock up a lot of money so it will be of no practical
use to us for six months; to sell them now moans that we
save the room, that w e save the insurance, that we show new
woods next season, and that we have the use of the monby
they represent, for the next six months; and ready money to
buy with means closcst cut prices. You will see it pays us
to let winter stuff go now at cost, or even in' some cases a
little less.

Did You Ever stop and c��nsider the extra cost of run-
ning a credit business ? The time it takes to keep the books,
the value of that time, the losses from slow and uncollectable
accounts, inseparable from the credit system, and the value of
the money locked up in book dents, year in and year out, all
of which extra expense must come out of the profits, and is a
charge on the consumer. ' The cash system saves all this,
there's no book-keepers time to pay for, no losses from bad
debts, no money locked up that can't be used in taking whole-
sale discounts. A man sellingtor cash can sell at closer mar-
gin, and his net profit still be as good, as he who has to get
the larger profit made necessary by the credit system.
If you are buying en credit you are paying for the accommo-
dation, if you pay cash in a credit house you are paying for
the accommodation for some • one else and some body's bad
debt besides. Wouldn't it pay you to try us and the cash
system for a year ? People are coming to this conclusion
every day, for trade growsfj'here.�

price sales.- Remember the date, January 26th, 1895. Ever
since we have been • in business, it has been our practice to
give during the periodical slack seasons, namely January and
August, special prices in many leading lines of our regular
stock. The, object in giving these special prices was to turn
goods that were becoming UNSEASONABLE, mark the word, the
goods were not UNSALEABLE, into cash, thereby giving room
for the incoming seasonable goods.

WILL ANY CHANGE BE MADE. —The
--chif contention at the recent nomina•
tidhs was concerning the office of
weigh master and town constable,
some of the ratepayers believing that
both offices, should be vested in one
person, at a reduced salary. It was
pointed out at the time that this could
not be done, as the duties now dis-
charged are more than one person can
attend to, but it might he done by a
reduction of the work required. It is

W. TAYLOR & SO S,
THE ONE PRICE CASH STORE. Batter and Eggs taken at Cash prices
In the first place—the stock is annually cleared up by
the sale of a lot of good stock, but in the lines that are broken,
only a size or two left, ar. d thus, rather than keep odd Sizes
in stock, we kuock profit cri the head.
SECONPLY—OUr experience has been that when you
have too much stuff in stock, that in all probability will have
to be carried over to the next season, it pays to turn the goods
into cash every ,tirily.
IN THE THIRD place and weightiest reason—All the
while benefitting ourselves, for that is our business, we give
the customer goods at such prices on these occasions that,
give him such an amount of satisfaction as to make a sure,
reliable customer for time to come. It is' the men who walk
around with the idea of baying right for the cash that we see
in our store on these occasions.
A thing worth remembering—It is impossible to buy
from us cheap goods (that is in the sense of being trashy and
valuless). We carry the best in all grades at the lowest
prices.
