to believe they are buying goods

• This is plain humbug if the goods are reliable and perfect.
'Manufacturers don't manufacture to sell at less than cost.
is not what they are in business for, but if the goods are
ish or imitations ofreliable goods then the customer is
'better of without them,aS they are not getting value for their

Death of Mrs. Biggin.
Mrs. Biggin died at her residence on
Ontario street yesterday morning after
an illness of several weeks. The de-
ceased,who had been a resident of Clin-
ton for about five years, was one of the
early settlers of Hullett and a native
of Ireland. She was well-known and
highly esteemed. Her husband died
about fifteen years ago. The surviving
members of the family are :—Miss
Biggin, Clinton ; Mrs. W. J. Miller,
Thos. Biggin and John Biggin, all of
Hullett. The funeral will take place
to -morrow afternoon to Clin)on ceme-
tery. r
Friday Night's Concert.
Edward P. Elliott, who wil appear
in the town hall to -morrow night, is
said to he without a superior in the pres-
entation of modern comedies. He is to
the platform what Joseph Jefferson
and Sol Smith Russell are to the stake,
an exponent of pure, wholesome com-
edy. His work as an •impersonator
and his productions as mediums of en-
tertainment have won praise from
press, public, clergy and literati. Mr.
Elliott cf,atributes to the platform, in
monologue form, original adaptations
of celebrated modern comedies, each a
delightful story, told and acted out as
such, and to which the charm of origin-
al and artistic interpretation is added.
Mr. Sturdy Pavers Shrops,
In noting a recent large shipment -of.
sheep from Huron to the Western
States for breeding purposes mention
should have been made that a number
of them were from the pens of Mr.
G. W. Sturdy of the 8th concession 'Of
Goderich township, Mr, Sturdy has
made several sales lately, but still has
forty-nine Shropshires—the breed he
favors—in his pens. The excellence of
his flock is well known and he hai re-
fused one -hundred dollars in spot cash
for four animals. Yankee buyers
always call upon Mr. Sturdy when
they visit the Huron Tract. Iu addi-
tion to Mr. G. W. Sturdy, Mr. G. O.
Sturdy has embarked in sheep -breed-
ing, but as yet.upon a smaller scale.
Mr. Mott Will Contest the Reeveshlp.
.Mr. Robert Elliott of Goderich town-
ship hes informed THE NEWS -RECORD
not only that he ^will be"a candidate
for the reeveship but also that he ex-
pects to win. He. promises a- whirl-,
wind campaign and is now making an
active canvas. Mr. Elliott is tolerably
well-known from centre to circumfer-
ence of the municipality. For twenty-
one consecutive -%years he made
the reunds ,with a threshing out-
fit and for the past twelve has been,
buying fruit and produce. He does
not consider his inexperience in the
routine of council business. will inter-
fere at all with a proper performance
of the duties pertaining to the position
for which he is an aspirant.
Mr. David Kennedy Will Retire.
Mr. David Kennedy has finally de-
cided upon retiring from municipal life
and consequently will not be a candi-
date nn January 2nd. This resolve will
be heard with regret by -the citizens,
as it will deprive them of the services
of one of the most painstaking of mu-
nicipal servants. Mr. Kennedy has
devoted much time to the work of the
council, particularly as a member of
the street committee. Re has been a
member of the council for eleven years,
tetnyears as councllbr, three as depu-
ty -reeve and five as reeve, and during
alLthat time only thrict had opposi-
tion, for the reeveship non at all. This
is a splendid record and testifies to
Reeve Kennedy's popularity with his
fellow citizens.

Public School Rfport.
The fofowi'ng pupils have been re-
moved from Room 1I. to Room I. It
can hardly be called a promotion, as
most of the pupils have been only four
months at the work ofRoorn II. They
are arranged in order of merit :—Edna
Pennabaker, M. Stevenson, X. Coats,
M. Cliff, V. Heywood, 01. Johnson.
M. Carling, Josie Witfs, Edna Cooper,
Isabel Mon, L. Reynolds, Geo. Finch,
H. McCaughey, M. Rodway. Classes -
have been removed from IV to III,
from VI to V, from 'VII to .V1 and'
from VIII to VII without examin-
ation, at preset,, Of 'course some in
each class are not ready for promotion
and will be put in their proper class on
the first examination. Re -arrange-
ment of work requires the•°removal of
entire classes.
The List Increases In Stanley.
A Stanley township farmer living in
the vicinity of Blake P. O. writes us
that he recently received acopy of Ting
MEWS -RECORD and liked it so well that
he has decided to become a subscriber.
He has for some years, like most of his
neighbors, been taking a Liberal paper,
but has at last grown weary of seeing
his political principles denounced week
in and week out. He also added in
effect that THE NEWS -RECORD is a
livelier and more up-to-date weekly,
which was in itself a sufficient reason
for a change, to say nothing of it being
the duty of a good Tory to support his
party paper, so that it may be in a Net-
ter condition to wage battle on behalf
of Conservatism and Good. Govern -
!tient. We must thank this Stanley
yeoman for hiskind words•and pat-
ronage.
Missionary Services la the Methodist Churches.
Last Sunday was Missionary day in
the Methodist churches of this town.
The pulpit of Ontario street church
was occupied in the morning and Rat-
tenburystreet church in thep.m. by Rev.
Dr. Henderson of Toronto, Associate
Missionary See'retary. The subject of
discourse was "The Value of Man," the
argument for special effort for his sal-
vation. Man was considered in his
wondrous and varied constitution
specially as an emanation from God.
This was the answer to the questioh
"Is pian worth saving ?" and the rea-
son for more earnest effort on the part
of the church in missionary work. In
the evening the Rev, Dr. Dewart, late
editor of the Christian Guardian,
preached on the "Superior Value of
Ohristianity." This the Rev. Dr. pre-
sented in a clear and logical manner,
showing that it is the gospel alone that
can meet the wants of man's higher
nature, qualify him for the fulfilment
of his mission as a denizen of this
world and prepare hint for the life that
is beyond. It is needless to say 'that
both sermons were worthy of the well-
known ability of the preachers and the
cause they represented. The 'effect
upon the congregations was manifest
by largely increased contributions for
missionary work. Large congrega-
tions were present at all the eervlees.--
On Monday evening Dr. Henderson
lectured in the Rattenbury street
Church to the Epworth Leagtlpe . of
both churches, He dwelt chiefly upon
the influence of Christianity as a efvil-
iaing agency", deinenetrating from hie,
tory that it was the forerunner and
handmaid of MI other agencies In the
deVeloptiient of individual and national
life and character,
A Slow Mall,
Last week's Holrnesville bundle of
NEws-REooRD's left Clinton Wednes-
day evening but did not reach its desti-
nation until Friday morning, though
the train service was not unduly de-
layed. This is rather slow time and
gave our Holmesville, friends, who
regularly visit the post office Thursday
for their mail, a second trip. A little
more celerity,even if it is the Christmas
season, will be quite in order. As we
have said the delayed handle left Clin-
ton on time ,
A Feast at Preach Castle.
The House of Refuge is making ready
for Christmas and the old folks, to
whom the future has apparently not
much joy in store, are looking forward
to the day of all days with visible an-
ticipation. On the statutory Christ-
mas, that is Monday, they will be
.given a spread of the good things of
the season, turkeys with cranberry
sauce, mince pie, plum pudding, etc.
Under Mrs. French's superintendence
it will be the feast of their lives for
some of the inmates,
Willis S. S. Anniversary,
The anniversary services in connec-
tion with Willis church Sunday school
were held on Sunday last. Rev.Dr.Dick
son of Galt preached morning and
evening and in the afternoon addressed
tbe Sunday school. Special music was
furnished by the church choir under
the leadership of Mr. Spalding, who
sang the solo', "Hosanna in Excelces."
In the anthem the solo was taken by
Miss Taylor. Mr. James Scott occu-
pied the chair and in his address gave
a resume of the year's work of the
school. Forty-six of the scholars have
during the past year become members
of the church. At the close of the'
evening service Dr. Dickson addressed
a meetingof the Christian Endeavor
society'. On Monday evening a supper
was held for the teachers and scholai s
after which Mr. Brewer gave bre magic
lantern views.
Tao X's lor,County Councillors.
The recent changes in the mode of
electing our municipal representatives
have caused considerable uncertainty.
Some ratepayers do not yet appear to
be aware that for county council they
may cast their two votes for one can-
didate or give oneto each of two
favorites, as they choose. ' For in -
titmice, opposite Mr. Connolly's name
they may place two X's, thus :—
CONNOLLY X X •
The system which permits of plumping
may -or may not be right, but it must
be taken as it is. 'However, it is quite
likely the father of the innovation in-
tended that the elector shofild exercise
bis franchise mere after this man ner :
BRITTON ,X
OONNOLLrY X
For the purpose of illustration we make
use of the names in the order' in
which they will probably appear on
the ballot papers of the Second
Division.
The framers of the new Act relating
to the election of members of town
councils were prodigal. For instance,
a ratepaper of Clinton, who has prop-
erty in each of the , four }wards, will
have the privilege of casting a round
twenty-five votes, that is, he can vote
in 'each sub -division for the six council-
lors, but only once in allfor mayor. One
man, one vote, is not in it with this
new order of things.
Tbe Collegiate' Have "The Bcho."
On Tuesday evening last the mem-
bers of the Collegiate Literary Society
held an open meeting in their assembly
hall and as it was to be their last be-
fore Christmas every, effort was
put forth by the energetic com-
mittee to make it a success. The fol-
lowing excellent progranime speaks for
itself :—Instrnmental Solo, Miss Mary
Stewart ; reading of the Collegiate
Journal by Editor J. Laird ; quartette,
Masters Shepherd, Millyard, Johnson
and Moffatt ; reading, H. McKenzie
vocal solo, Miss Flossie Stanbury.; reci-
tation, Miss Olive Cooper ; piano solo,
Mise A. Foster ; recitation, Miss M.
Houston ; vocal solo, Miss F. Shipley ;
M• isses Armstrong and Twitchell ; reci-
tation, Miss C. Shipley ; address, Mr.
Houston ; quartette, Misses Campbell
and Stewart, Messrs. Paesinore and
Agnew ; reading, IC. Houston ; mouth
organ solo, Mr. James Thompson ;
farce, Messrs. Turnbull, Passmors,
Agnew and Miss Duff. It will be seen
by the progranupe that the Collegiate
has tielent in all the different branches
of entertainment, in music; elocution
and dranta. The reading' of the Col-
legiate paper, "The Echo," `by Editor
Laird was one of the features of the
evening. It Was full pf humor and
readable accounts of the happenings at
the Collegiate from the pen of the
editor and his assistants; The con-

A young son of Mr. George Farquhar,
Base line, had the tops of the first
two fingers on his left hand cut off by
a cutting box on Tuesday.
A. robin was seen by residents of
Clinton on Tuesday, probably the lat-
est date on which a red -breast has been
observed hereabouts.
A number of Clinton's young people
have received invitations'foran as-

There Will Be a Protest
At a meeting of the executive of the
Liberal -Conservative Association of
West Huron, held in Goderich on
Monday, it was decided to enter a pro-
test against Garrow's election, There
is believed to be abundance of evidence
to unseat Mr. Garrow a half-dozen
tirnes over.
Good Times In Dakota.
In remitting his subscription to THE
NEWS -RECORD, which is now paid
ahead, Mr. James Macdonald of Gard-
ner, North Dakota, writes us as fol-
lows ;—We are having a mild winter.
There is not yet enough snow for
sleighing and the thermometer hasn't
regiotered any more than fifteen de-
grees below. Times are good in our
county and many have gone or are go-
ing back t'o. Canada, to the Coast or
England on, a visit. Fargo boomed
this past season and lots of fine build-
ings were built. The compliments of
the season and good luck to THE NEWS -

An Ancient Church.
The series of sermons bei ng preach
ed by the Rector of St. Paul's
on the Church have been most
interetting and instructive. The first
showed that our Lord founded achurch
which stills exists. The next one dealt
with tbe four marks that characterized
the Apostolic a, -L, and showed that
the Anglican church has each -or- fusee
'es they were in the early history of the
church. In the serrnon of last Sunday
p. in. the preacher cited authorities
to sustain the contention that the
Church was established in Briton hun-
dreds of years before Augustine land-
ed on the island and that it has been
an organized body ever since, govern-
ed by Bishops who were the successors
of the apostles, in a complete network,
right down to the present. The Refor-
mation simply cast forth the impuri-
ties that had accumulated during the
dark ages. When the authority of
the Bishop of Rome was cancelled out
of 9,400 clergy all except 189 remained
el their post, and only one Bishop re-
fused to act under the changed state
of affairs. Such sermons are most
useful to many who have not made a
study of Church histgry,
The Model School Examination.
A meeting of the Board of Examin-
ers for the !county of Huron was held
in the court house, Goderich, to finish
the work of the examination of the
County Model Schools. There were
in attendance afne two Model Schools
fifty-four candidates, 24 in Goderich
and 29 in Clinton. Of these three fail-
ed in securing the required number of

Murduck will deliver a special Christ-
mes sermon.
There will be special Christmas servi-
ces in the Ontario street Methodist
church next Sunday. The program of
music in preparation by the choir is of
a special character and will no doubt
prove worthy of the occasion and their
musical ability.
