The crop has been a little above the average and owing to the tine weath- er it has been saved in tlrst class condi- tion. Fall wheat ii nhnobt ready for cut- ting and the prospect for a good yield has never been better than it is this year. The recent frosts have done a great deal of ilainago to peas, po'atoes, corn and other garden stuffs. We understand the Monnonite people intend erecting a ttbernaole near Sum- mer's Creek for tlie purpose of holding speciHl services which they intend to start ou Wednesday evening, July 20th.

White,) a son, From our otvn Corrapotideni, A. rather unique load of impromptu excursionists from Toronto, Meti;, Cum- nock, Flosberton and Priceville passed up Kincardine street of our burg one day last week. Their conveyance was a two wheeled vehicle of the farm cart type. The driver occupied a promi.ient position on the back of the horse, while two foot- men were inabilli-d on tlie front corners of the box which contained a bevy of eight beautiful lively ladies. It would be impossible in the small spiice allotted to us to fully describe the different and becoming costumes worn on the occasion but we will content ourselves with a few words about thj head^^ear, which was certainly very .ittnictivo. Olio toque deserves especial mention. It was about the dimensions and shape of an uld (ashioiii'd saucer and resembled very much the crown of a lust year's straw hat. If we wore at all addicted to moralizing we would say " What a great aniouii^ of money is watitcd in head-dress." The night of the lOih of July will be renienibereJ in this county, at least, for many years to come. Just in this vicinity the damage done by the frost on the date mentioned was confined to a few, but the writer took a trip through a neighboring township a few days ago and in a 10-mile stretch he di.l not see a patch of potatoes that, from present appearance, would be worth the digging. In many places also the peas were badly frozen, but with one or two exceptions uats and barley seemed to have come through safely. Quite a number of our young men left last week for the old settlement, where the most of them secured work at fair Wflges. At the time of writing everyone is wishing for rain and yet a great many are hoping it will keep off for "just one day longer." One day last week as Mr. John Mo- Lachlan (Gravel Road ) was leading a colt to water, the animal kicked him so severely that he was unconscious for some time. He is under the doctor's care at proaont. Miss Leila Uobinsou of Palmorstou spent last week with her friend. Miss Anna Janius.

Wo ALWAYS do so ; we divulge nothing of the kind ; our interest in such sales being guaged not by sentiment but by hard cash, our profit. Strict confidotice ia therefore invalaable. Parties buying from us can do so privately if desired. In Engagement Rings we are carrying a Urge stock and of greater variety than heretofore and at prices rang* ing from 81.50 to $15.00. Wo have recently added a new line of Wedding Rings in 10k. gold, which are bound to be favorites.
