CHURCH SERVICES.—On Sunday next, Dec. 1st, service will be held at Holmesville, 11 a. m., and at Summer- hill. 7 p. m. by Rev. Wm. Stout. "MINI$TERLtL CALL.—The official hoard of RRattenbury street church at their last meeting unanimously re- solved to extend a call to Rev. Andrew Henderson, of North Bay, Montreal Conference. HOusE OF REFUGE OPENING.—The 'formal opening of the Huron County House of Refuge will take place, at Clinton, on Thursday, December 5th, at 4.30p. m. In the evening a splendid local concert will be held in the town halt at eight o'clock, which will.take two hours. A nominal admission fee of 10 and 20 cents will be charged to defray expenses. At 10.30 the Town of Clinton will tender a banquet to the County Council, to which the general public will be admitted for a low fee. The Town Committee met on Monday and practically completed all the arrangements devolving on them. E. L. of C. E.—The Epworth League of the Ontario Street church is now in a flourishing condition under the lead- ership of our excellent president, Mrs. (Rev.) W. J. - Ford. Mrs. Ford is a worker in the true sense of the word and since taking the chair has done much for the League's advancemeet. The League promises to be one of the foremost if not the foremost in the dis- trict. On Monday night Miss Bessie Murch gave an excellent essay on "Lessons from the Life of Moses." Some good lessons were presented in a forcible manner. Next Monday even- ing the meeting will take the form of a social, a silver collection to he taken at the door. All are cordially invited. INDUCTED. From the Milton Cham- pion we learn that Rev. A. Mahaffy, B. A., was last week inducted into the pastoral charge of Knox Church at that place. The Champion says :— "Before the service closed Mr. Mahaffy was called forward, a in a few well- chosen and graceful words, he express- ed his appreciation of the kind welcome which he had received, and his deter- mination to seek to justify the words of confidence and commendation which his friends bad spoken. It is evident that the congregation are to be con- gratulated on their choice of a new minister, and the whole community smites in wishing pastor and people abrindant success." Rev. Mr. Mahaffy is an old-time Clinton boy, being a son of Mr. Jas. Mahaffy, at one time pro- priel or of the oatmeal mill south of Irwin's elevator which was burned some years ago. The rev. gentleman is also a nephew of Mr. Jas. McGill, town. HOUSYR OF REFUGE CONCERT.—Many occasious have the people of Clinton and vicinity been treated to good con- certs by our local talent, but the con- cert" to be given on Dec. 5th—the formal opening da of th House of Refuge—will eclipse all previous efforts, and a program such as is seldom pre - fainted will be rendered by the best Iocal.talent we possess. The Glee Club, consisting of 85 voices, will "make their first appearance in pleasingchoruses. Such solo singers as Mrs. Hoover, R. Roster, W.'P. Spalding, T. Jackson, and.othera is .a guarantee that it will he-.aL ictly'first clads. Resides these, Mrrt.; `J. C.

The committee presented a schedule of rents' for the various pews, which was adopted to go into force December- 1st next, After hearty vote of thanks was passed t Miss Archibald for her very generou gift to the church, the meeting ad journed. A POINTED ITEM.—Thauksgiying at OntarioSt. Church wasvery interesting. The choir rendered sacred music in divine style. The sermon by Rev. J. W. Holmes was replete with rich thought, deep, high-toned and clear ; but his peroration was scarcely so hap- py. To speak of Canada as suffering and groaning under governmental in- competency, or dishonesty, or from any o. her cauuse, is, as Jonathan Swift would have it,, "saying that which is not." No country on earth is more prosper- ous than our own. The obstinacy which induces a man to judge from ex parte evidence, is a fault which can not he cherished without producing what Plato would denominate political hem i - crania. A good sermon has often been spoiled by a single paragraph of un- wisdom.—Coax.

LIKE A YANKEE CYCLONE.—One oft the most severe wind storms, border-; ing like unto an Ametican cyclone, visited this section during the early hours of yesterday morning.About forty feet square of the two brick side walls of Cooper's new planing factory came to mother earth. Mr. Cooper was winding up the season's work and delayed for a few days to put iii all the oist ; where they had been placed the building remained firm. The roofing was not started either. The loss will' be considerable. Yesterday a gang of men were at work and the walls will be elected at once.—Five or six of the large signs on the Dry -Goods Palace building were blown off.—A brick chimney on the Hotel Clarendon was blown off and a good portion of the iron or tin roofing removed. --A rear chimney on Davis & Rowland's hard- ware store was also blown over.—With terrific force the wind caught one of the chimneys on the Hpuse of Refuge and caused>lome damage.—Inl the coun- try barns were unroofed and fences laid low.—The storm was Very severe and much damage caused, hut we have not heard of any loss of life. I. O. G. T.—That the I. O. G. T. are lin earnest in this town is demonstrated y the fact that for several months past splendid programs have been rendered at their meetings, open to the public. Now they have formed themselves into a "House of Commons," for the pro- gram part of the meeting which is open to the members of the Order only. Last Friday night a bill to abolish the liquor traffic received its second read- ing which was followed by considerable discussion. The leader of the House then called upon Mr. C. M. Bezzo to give the closing address in favor of the bill. Mr. Bezzo has the temperance question at his fingers end, and de- livered an address which for fluency and eloquence is unsurpassed by many of our temperance orators. He pos- sesses the rare faculty of conveying to his listeners the scene that is passing through his own mind, and as he stood inspired on the platform, those who heard him, as the words flowed from his lips in terrible arraignment of the evil of intemperance, were amazed and spell -bound. Next Friday evening the bill will receive its third reading when it is expected that Mr. Bezzo will again defend it after which it will be voted on. The object of this form of program is to arouse the dormant faculties of the members and bring out more promin- ently the temperance sentiment in the Lodge.—COM.

There is scarcely anything in which there is more room for deception than in Furs Un- less you are an expert your only safeguard is to buy from a house in. which you have every confidence. So for this season we have sold more Furs than this house ever sold in the same time before. Our Capes are the hill standard sweep, are made from the best selected skins, the best linings are used, and they are properly made. The same may be said of all our Furs. We have the largest selection, and the prices we ask are as low as those of any house in the trade. They may be worth more than we are asking, but depend on it you'll get no lower prices any- where. It you want Furs we are prepared to do them right for you. We alter Furs into any of the Latest styles.
