False Economy
Do not practice false economy in the purchase
of spectacles and eyeaelasses. If a prescription
be taken to a druggiet to be filled it is not hand-
ed in with the request that the cheapest drugs
may be used, although, perhaps, the medicine
required is for some trivial ailment only-. VVIY,
then, should so light an estimate be placed up.
on the most precious of all the senses, that
those who can and de afford extravagances in ,
useless or at least unnecessary luxuries should
begrudge paying a fair price for an article at
once so essential to comfort and welfare ?
The complete sntisfaction and comfort given byour nulde-to-order
glasses are making our Optical Department daily more popular,
ae We have had 12 years' experience in fitting glasses and '
believe we can be of service to you.

A NARROW ESCAPE.
Mr. Samuel Carr of near the Nile was
thrown from the spring seat of his
wagon one day last week and go sev-
erely injured that be remained in an
unconscious state for an hour and a
half and a has since been confined to
his bed. The Dr. says he had a very
narrow escape front breakina his neck.
Mrs. ta. Cook, Jr., of town is a
daughter of Mr, Carr's.
THF4 ELEVATOR,
Mr, D. Urquhart of ilousall took
possession of the Standard elevator
on Monday mid purposes bidding high
for the grain grown in the adjoining
townships. Ile tuts engaged Mr, W.
G, Smith of town and Mr. A. W.
Campbell of Chatham to look after
his interests. Mr. Calnpbell was lor-
nicelyin the milling business himself
ani
d s thoroughly familer with the
grain trade, while Mr. Smith, who has
been at the elevator for nearly twenty
years, is both well and favorably
known, To . show what capacity this
elevaaor hes we might mention that
in one year, 1886-7, it did a besiness
of only $4o,000 short of $1,000:000.
That was high water mark, but for
many years Ur. R. Irwin., the owner,
was probably the most extensive deal-
er in the county.,
S. A. PARAGRAPHS.
Lieut. Richardson of the S. A. local
corps has been trabsferred to the
town pf Watford. Miring the few
weeks he was stationed here he be-
came quite popular and the corps was
siucerely sorry to lose hint. He left
on Thursday and the evening previous
he gave a talk on nine years ex-
perience on a British Man of war, His
recital was entertaining.
.A big drum has been bought by the
band through headquarters an torons
to. It was needed,as the one in use
was beginningto show signs of age.
The, departure of Harry Clark, who
has taken a situation in Brantford,
has crippled the band considerably
and in a double sense as Mrs. Clark
was also a Member and rendered good
service, Sergeant-Major Liveamore
was asked to take the leadership, ;but -
k6 declined and reemainentled - Coop-
er, who is new in charge. No member
of the cosps gives more liberally of his
time and talent to .the serviee than
the Sogeant-Major whois very sel-
dom absent froin the meetings.
