The Huron News-Record, 1896-09-09, Page 8A Little Secret
One of those little secrets that
help to make a home prettier -
more refined and dainty, is an
attractive shade on your lamp,
made of crepe paper on a wire
frame. They are light, airy, and
give to the room a degree of aimplo
beauty moat invitiug and social.
Nothing perhaps at ao small a
coat will produce such an agree-
able, homelike, and at the eame
time useful ornament. The wire
fame, five or six points will coat you
fifteen cents, there ie ample paper
in one roll at fifteen cents, any
color, or two rolls for twenty-five
ceuto. The materials will just
coat you a quarter of a dollar for
one shade. See one made up in our
window, also our new shapes in
wire plate handles, at 5, 8 and 10
cents.

STAY WITII HIM. -Who is the home
merchant? He is the man who helps
to pay for the streets upon which you
walk; for the schools in which your
children or perhaps you were educated;
he helps to keep un the churches in
which you worship. He is the man
who builds a house which enhances
the value of your property. Every
subscription paper that is passed has
his name on it; he is the man who
cannot afford to swindle you. Self in-
terest, if nothing else, would prevent
this; he bears his share of the burden
of good government; stays right with
you in sunshine and darkness, iu days
of prosperity and adversity. These are
but few of the reasons why you pat-
ronage should bo given to the home
merchant. •
TSE HURON CENTRAL. -In another
couple of weeks we will be in themidst
of the fall fairs. The success of these
exhibitions depends largely on the in-
terest taken in them by the people. It
should be borne in mind that the prin-
cipal object these shows are meant to
serve, is to encourage the raising of
better stock or farm produce. There-
fore, if you have a good animal or a
fine specimen of roots or grain bring it,
oat that it may be compared with
other specimens. Perhaps it is better,
perhaps it is inferior. Inpeither case
your interests in the exhibition will be
increased, you will learn something
and your ambition will be fired for the
future. The exhibition should he the
time for exchanging ideas and wining
information particularly on agricultur-
al topics. As the Huron Central at
Clinton presents an excellent opportun-
ity you should make early arrange-
ment for turning it to account in the
ways indicated. The dates are Tuesday
and Wednesday, Sept. 29th and 30th,
and the secretary. Mr. Win. Coats,
Clinton, will supply you with a
prize list and all information,

BANE BALL AT SEA FORTH. -On Labor
Day at Seaforth Clinton defeated Sea -
forth at base ball by three runs. The
game was well contested and exciting
all through and was enjoyed very Much
by the spectators. The features of the
game was the fielding of Ross Williams,
Clinton's 2nd base than, and the heavy
batting of both teams. lu the last in-
nings with the bases full, Harland
drove the ball over the fence for ii; home
run, and it was a timely hit. Harry
Reid, of Clinton, wits umpire, and gave
the best of satisfaction. Our boys say
they were never better entertained.
Seaferth will play here at an early
date. I3atteries for Clinton ---Spalding
and Harland; Seatorth-Jackson, Ed-
wards and Stevenson.
STAND BY YOUR OWN TOWN. -We
way honestly differ in matters of
politics, religion and of medicine, but
there is no room for any difference of
opinion in the matter of the plain duty
of every citizen to stand by home in-
stitutions. Patronize home industries,
should be the motto. Let everybody
with a dollar to spend remember every
cent spent at home helps to swell the
volume of currency in the local channel
of trade, and el ery interest in the town
and every dweller in it is benefitted by
the impetus given to local trade by
plenty of money freely circulated. One
dollar in the course ot a day pays many
dollars of debt, and every dollar taken
from the trade of your town and spent
to swell the currency of another is a
direct blow to home interest. The
prosperity of each is bound up in the
prosperity of all, and no individual can
escape his share of responsibility for
the result. To criticise the methods of
those who are trying to advance home
interests is not as conducive to good as
to take off one's own coat and put a
shoulder to the wheel and all push to-
gether. Stand by home industries,
patronize 'home merchants, and be
willing that all shall receive a fair
profit for their laher. Society is a
partnership of interests in which all
are entitled to receive a shiire of the
profits, and in advancing the common
welfare, the day laborer and .the money
lender are alike under obligations to
do their share according to their
ability.
MORE SUccEss.-A few days ago
the report of the results of the depart-
mental examinations showed that the
Clinton Collegiate Institute. was able
to hold its own among the schools of
the province. The results of the
honor and scholarship examination
for Toronto University matriculation
were given in Saturday's daily. papers,
and were still more gratifying. Of the
seventy-five students who wrote, three
were from Clinton, and they,dld them-
selves and their school crefiit. Mr.
Ernest H. Cooper took first class
honors in Mathematics, English,
French, and History and Geography,
and second class honors in German and
Latin ; Mr. Lester R. Whitely first
class in English, French and History
and Geography, and second class in
Mathematics and Latin ; and Miss
Lillie M. Johnstone first class in Eng-
lish, and French, and second class in
Mathematics, German, and History
and Geography. All three passed in
the other subjects necessary for full
matriculation. Fifteen mentions in
the honor list for three students is
good, but this is not the best, Mr.
Cooper's high stand entitles him to a
proficiency scnolarship, which in tuition
and cash will he worth to him over
$100. Mr. Cooper will accept our con-
gratulations upon his success in being
the first to win one of the Edward Blake
scholarships for Clinton. We hope
bis example may lead others to see
what may he gained by faithful work.
The other two, though not taking
scholarships, hate won a highly credit-
able place among the pick ot the stu-
dents from all the high schools in the
province.

DEATH OF JAMES BoYn.-The Sea -
forth Expositor says :-"Sad indeed
were the circumstances in connection
with the death of James W. Boyd,
youngest son of Mr. Moore Boyd, North
Main street, Seaforth, and a brother of
Mr.W.H. Boyd,of Lucknow,and Mrs. J.
Robb, oflMorris. When a young man
of seventeen he went to attend Toronto
Veterinary College, with the object of
fitting himself as a veterinary surgeon,
but be had only been two months in
the city when he contracted typhoid
fever and for seven months lay in To-
ronto general hospital. Dr. Reilly, of
that institution, said that in all his
practice ho had never seen a patient
come through such a siege of fever and
live. He cause horse a mere wreck
and was never able to shake off the
after effects of this severe illness. He
anbsequently learned the trade of a
baker and while following this occupa-
tion in Brnsselsi was seized with tuber-
cular meningitis, and in spite of•the
kind attention of bis friends and all
that medical skill could do he sank
rapidly until death relieved hint ot
all
eulYering. He was unmarried and
leaves behind him his aged father,
who will ever cherish in fond remem-
brance the affection of a dutiful son."
For some years the deceased was en-
gaged in the bakery and confectionery
business here with his brother W. H.,
and afterward with Mr. Oakes. While
in Clinton the' deceased had his leg
operated on for the removal of an
affection as a result of the fever. His
friends and acquaintances in and about
Clinton will regret to learn of his
death.

.iYew Fall 'Mantles -
Now that chilly days and evenings are here peo-
ple are interested in Fall Wraps and Jackets.
Many have been waiting the announcement of
the arrival of our stock, and now
They are Here -
They come to us from far off Germany, which
leads the world in the manufacture of Mantles.
We buy them at the fountain head, and thus pay
no wholesale profits, which means less for you
to pay also. E'Jery garment taken from the
many boxes opened up, is right lip to our expec-
tations, both as to style and finish. This
far the most stylish lot of Mantles this house has
ever shown, and the prices lean your way more
than ever before. We could take up all this
space with descriptions ot them, but the best
place to see them is at the store and we will be
pleased to have you look at them at any time you
may wish, whether you care to buy now or not ;
at the same time it is a good plan to select now,
and thereby g(t first choice. Many are doing
this and having thein laid aside till they aro
ready for them.
The
NEW MILLINERY.
We will be showing early fall styles in Millinery
about Monday next. Not a complete stock but
an inkling of what's to be worn for early fall,
