The depression is felt most by dealers such as jewel- lers who are always among the first to experience the effects of tight money or a reduction in the buying or Power of the péople occasioned by unemployment. But dealeps in gro- ceries, dry-goods and househdld 'ar- ticles, things that are absolute neces- sities, are doing a very good busi- bess. This they have beep able to | stimulate to some extent by extensive advertising of reduced prices, al- £ though the public continues to look * for further reductions all along the line, Never were people so critical of prices as Lhey are today. A visitor in the city was known to have gone from one restaurant to another where he examined the price lists before he ordered. This may seem strange, but it is a fact nevertheless. There is a strong general tendency to study prices, and the merchant who is able to convince the people that he is sell- ing at substantia] reductions is the | one who gets the trade. No class of people are keener for bargains than the transient American tourists. In the United States cutting of prices began in earncst last year, and Can- adians hung on longer, with the re- sult that many of them got left be- hind. These tourists know a good article and will buy if prices are right. In Kingston, the process was slow but the live merchants were the first to accept the inevitable and get what business there was. They are, con- sequently, in a better position to [| meet the period of slow buying. It is just here where advertising | comes in, for advertisements are read eagerly by buyers of all classes seeking reduced prices. This is a point upon which all age particularly sensitive, and the merchant who has something to announce is bound to focus attention and secure definite results, cup of tea.

One of Kingston's oldest residents, H.

They spent two very interesting hours in reviewing events of their early days and now. It is of interest to note that in their childhood days there-werg-no rail- roads in eastern Ontario, all trans- portation being by water alone, early pioneers have all passed into the great beyond, and the béautiful homes and farms of lefig ago are now in the hands. of the third genera- tion and in some cases in the hands of strangers. In a limited circle, a few have risen to prominence. One became a cabinet minister, one a prominent banker in Los Angeles, Cal; and one of the third generation, a prominent financier in England, Col.

Fowler, New Liskeard, Ont., writes as follows: "I read with considerable interest your article on the mud house on Am- herst Island. "I can quite well remember my grandmother telling me how her uncle, Major Radcliff, had the house built for him by a man who came out from Ireland. As to his being brought out on purpose to build the house she did not say. "She described the process as fol- lows: There was a mixture of mud and straw put into troughs or boxes jij and the men got into these with their | bare feet and tramped until the de- sired consistency was attained, then withes were imbedded in it as a re- inforcement.
