In these days of history making in the Etuptre, and of great uattoual develop- ment Sud political growth iu Canada, all classes of people are reeliziug the necess- ity ot following the world's doiugs, day by day, more than ever before. The public must have the news and have it Immediately, and so the daily newspa •er supplauts the city weekly anion all. classes. The kaleidoscope of uman affairs is rapid in its ipove 'uts. A week is too loug to wait for re world's news. Iu these daye of eu business competition, in has aud farmers must have mt►rke0,n. ileus freta day to day. Moroove , is now possible to obtalu one of Torouto's greatest dailies— The News --for the price of the city weekly, $1.00 a year by mail. The News sets forth the news ot the day iii an at- tractive form. Its political reports are free from party bias, and its market re ports comprehensive and accurate. Every day a chapter of first-class serial appears—just enough for, say, a half. hour's reading. Neither does The News lack the maga- zine features of the city weekly. The Saturday edition, coutaiuiug twenty- four pages, is of special interest to wo- men, and, indeed, to every member of the family. Everyone should write for a sample copy of The News, and particu- lare ot their generous clubbing offers. Notice of changes must be left at this office not later than Saturday noon. The copy for changes must be left not later than Monday evening. Casual advertisements accepted n p to noon Wednesday of each week. ESTABLISHED 1872. THE WINfinAM TIMES. H. B. ELLIOTT.

The Ontario Government has in course of preparation a bill which will embody temperance legislation which the Legislature will be asked to enact. After being out only six minutes the jury in the general sessions Friday night brought in a verdict of guilty in the case of W. H. Callaghan, charged with the theft of $180 from the Crossin Piauo Company. There was no political evid• encu, and the jnry were apparently influenced by the defendant's admissions in cross-examination. Some of the campaign arguments now in use, presumably for lack of better ones, by the Conservative press, reminds ins of the "tongue twisters" of our (youth, such as "Peter Piper picked a Ipeck of pickled peppers. If Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers, where's tithe pock of pickled peppers Peter Piper `picked?" The argument is just about as lconvincing, and its merit is the same- 8that if yda say it often and fast enough ape; get mixed up.—Montreal Witness. si The Conservatives of West Huron held ret nom inating oonvention at Auburn Ayesterday. We have not learned the name of the nominee, but James Conn- veeIly, Robt. McLean and Mayor Lewis, a)uf Goderich have been mentioned. Whoever the candidate may be he will Ego down to defeat against Robt. Holmes, Wof Clinton, the popular member for the lidding. Mr. Holmes has been an able ferepresentative for West Heron and the Slelectora will see that he beads the poll Nan election day. fo m How's This? CANADA BUSINESS CULLEGE, C U ATLLLfl, (. ' T.

It gets tired easily, and what it fails to digest is wasted. Among the signs of a;weak stomach are uneasiness after eating, fits of ner- vous headache, and disagreeable belch- ing. "I have been troubled with dyspepsia for years, and tried every remedy I heard ot, but never got anything that gave me relief until I took Hood's Sarsaparilla. I cannot praise this medicine too highly for the good it has done me. I always take it in the spring and fall and would not be without it." W. A. Nuo a r, Belleville, Ont.

Toronto, Dec. 15,—There was a good showing of choice cattle for the Christ- mas trade at the City Cattle Market to- day. Business was on the whole good, and some high prices were paid for fancy butchers' cattle. There was a heavy run, but some delay on the railroad west 'of Toronto preventing a large amount of stock reaching the market until very late in the day. Up to noon hour 60 cars of stock had been delivered by the Grand Trunk Railway, and three more trains on the road had yet to arrive. The in complete returns showed offerings am- onuting to 1,364 head of cattle and 1,355 sheep and lambs.
