(Seaforth Expositor.) A case that caused a great deal of interest to the residents of McKillop and vicinity, was held in the town hall, Seaforth, on Monday last, when aman named Brodhagen, of Logan, was up before Police Magistrate Grieg on a charge of stealing five head of steers belonging to Mrs. W. Anderson, of McKillop. The man was convicted and sent up for trial at the December sessions at Goderich, bail being accepted for $3,000. The cat- tle were pastured on the grass farm of Mr. John Govenlock, near Win- throp, and were missed about the last week in June. Mrs. Anderson ad- vertised a reward for any informa- tion leading to their recevery, but it was not until a few days ago that information was received that led to the arrest of the man Brodhagen. In giving his evidence the man. stated that he drove the cattle from the Gov- enlock farm back into Logan where he sold them to a farmer for $275 and later expended $250 of this am- ount in the purchase of an automo- bile. The cattle have been recovered and will be returned to Mrs. Ander- son.

H. W. Lutz, in writing from Seaford Camp, Eng., to Linwood friends, says in part: s Just a few lines to let you know how I have fared so far. Reached England on Monday evening, July the whole way over, excepting one or two days and even then it was not what you would call rough. Quick a number of my chums were seasick, so. enjoyed good health the whole voy- age. We had a rather long trip, ow- ing to our having to wait on our con- voy at Halifax. We waited a whole week at the port and had to remain It was very tire- over and gave us a good concert for a few nights and that sure helped to break the monotony. You~ should have seen us boys coal that old ship. We had to either coal her oursélves or wait on the next convoy. They brought the ship in close to the docks and we loaded that bally old thing with bushel baskets. Altogether we put in something like 400 tons of coal and we sure looked like negroes after we were through. Only on one occasion did we meet with German submarines--one of the boats fired on a sub. in mid-Atlantic--otherwise it was quiet. There were about 20 boats in all loaded with troops. The most of whom were "Yankees." It sure is some sight to see a convoy such as we came over with. Thanks to the British navy for our safe ar- rival as they had us pretty well guarded. I think they must have had Fritzie scared as he did not show up in the danger zone. This is a nice place, but after all, Canada for mine. I should run across George Dunning- ton in this place sometime soon. I have not been able to get down town | yet, as we have been quarantined for I ten days. As soon as I get out and /see the country, I will write again. Now, I will appreciate a letter at any time from anyone around the old burg who cares to write, and this ad- dress will catch me. Sapper H. W. | Lutz, 2010582, C.E.T. Corps, 74th Draft, 11 Co'y., 1 Section, Army P. O., London, England. bb bb The following letter has just been received by Mrs. William Orr from her son, Spr. Henry L. Orr, written on August 8th (Mother'sDay) dated London, Eng. Time has passed very quickly since the 26th of July and to-day, I find, is ;the last of my "leave."' Well, I have more than enjoyed myself the last fourteen days. I.can't say how high- ly we appreciate "leave" after thir- teen or fourteen months across the channel. Yesterday I saw Harry Moore at a distance, but I lost him in the crowd. I would like to have had a chat with him. This morning I saw Frank Donnel- ly (he used to work for Geo. Pauli). He was on leave too. A Mother's Day pamphlet is also enclosed. and a special appeal made to all mothers.of the Empire by the Dowager Queen, Alexandra, as fol- lows :-- Marlborough House, August 8, 1918. "T greet to-day all the mothers of the soldiers and sailors of our Empire and our Allies, My heart is filled with sympathy for their anxiety, with gratitude for their splendid sons, with a sure hope and confidence in the coming victory of our good cause. I pray God for the welfare of them all.--Alexandra."' PTE. T. J. MASON HONORED On Tuesday evening, Aug. 20th, | about thirty of the friends and neigh- | bors gathered at the home of Mrs. | James Mason to bid farewell to her json, Thomas, who is going overseas. Pte. T. J. Mason was the happy re- |eipient of a beautiful wrist watch, which was presented to him by Miss Annie Jack, of Newton, and the ad- dress was read by Mr. Alex. Davidson. Taken completely by surprise Pte. Mason replied fittingly in a few words thanking them all for their good-will and kind remembrance and assured them with what joy he would look on this gift and in far off France his thoughts would be with them.~ The evening was spent in a social way, the program consisting of music, singing recitations and violin selections, Pte. Mason has been attached to the Uni- versity Toronto overseas training Co. C.0.T.C. and is taking a commission in the Imperial Royal Garrison Ar- tillery. Our best wishes go with him and hope he may be one of our wel- come heroes home when the awful war is over.

FINE WOODLAND IS CONSERVED History was made in Waterloo county on Thursday, when a beauti- ful woodland lot of forty acres at the confluence of the Grand and Cones- togo Rivers at Conestogo was handed over by Mr. Walter J. Snider, the miller, to Hon. Finlay Macdiarmid, Minister of Public Works, represent- object of furthering the policy of con- servation and reforestation through- out Canada. The property has been in possession of the Snider family since about 1850, and is covered with | majestic forest trees. In turning it over to the Government Mr. Snider stalled and started to back down, go- ing through a fence_into a creek and turned over. 1 BIRTHS.

We think so; and because we think so, we thought out this fall's situation long ago so that we are prepared to supply your wants this fall as few merchants are. We are offering a stock that in its variety and completeness of range will most surely meet with your favorable commendation. é - The Points Most Worth Considering Health and comfort is a very first consideration in buying cloth- ing of any kind. Attractive appearance is, however, a thing every- one should strive for, and this can be had by practising the best econ- omy, namely, by buying good materials. The question of quality is identical with these points of health, comfort and appearance, but the question of cost is an altogether different matter, and is forced : upon nearly everyone's attention. Our Service Aims'iw Solve These Difficutties Our business has been handled so carefully and our resources have been used so entirely in safe merchandising propositions that we are able to meet present abnormal conditions and carry a larger stock than ever before. This, together with long experience, makes it possible for us to secure the very best goods, to get them early, and to get unusually good values. We have been investigating conditions other places and with an absolute confidence can offer you our stock of fine new lines, knowing that all through we can offer you really good merchandise and save you money. The new lines are selected for attractive style and good quality, and the more staple materials bought when prices were much lower than at present, and are in re- liable qualities, and a corresponding saving in price, The More Important Features We have simply a wonderful stock of Silks--these are to hand in every quality in standard colors and weaves and ia the various novelties. In Wool Dress Goods our offerings are especially good in value and im all staple lines of Cottons and Flannelettes our very large stock insures to you a continued good service. The Knitted Hosiery and Underwear for both men and women as well as boys and girls has been well taken care of so that we can offer you an especially fine range of these. Ladies' New Fall Coats are Here A most extensive range of Fall and Winter Coats now await your inspection. You will be delighted with the new styles and the moder- ation in price is particularly noticeable when all materials are so scarce. We bought early in the season when prices were much more reasonable. The leading materials are Velours, Cheviots, Chinchillas, Tweeds, Salts, Plushes and Fur fabrics. Men's Clothing and Furnishings. The Men's Clothing of all descriptions is a super stock--outstand- ing valuez in unusually good qualities. An especially fine range of the New Hats is an important feature. In all other lines of F urnishings you will find our stock larger than it has ever been before. In short you will find us well stocked with all kinds of Dry Goods for fall and winter use.
