In the departure of Jeff, in particular, the lacrosse boys lose one of their best and most determined players. and with the loss also of Dug Munro who left for Winnipeg a short time ago the team here will be very much weakened.

Lauder, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Black. On Sunday morning last she attended service in the Presbyter- ian church feeling quite well. Soon she was seized with severe pains caus- ing her husband and friends some alarm. . Dr. Macdonald was sent for and soon diagnosed the case as a severe attack of appendicitis. The patient was constantly and rapidly growing worse, and in consultation with Drs. J amieson and Gun, an immediate op- eration was decided on. The case, a very critical one, taking about three hours, was performed yesterday, Tues- day afternoon, and at time of going to press the doctors consider she has only a chance to recover. We hope for the best, and trust she may be long spared to comfort her sorrowing husband and parents. \V e regret exceedingly to announce the very serious illness of Mrs. A. W. Mr. John J.

Mac. is here now a little over a year. He came here as a stranger, started business in his own quiet way, and is evidently doing well. ‘Ve have no fault to find with him, as he comes in when ever he takes a notion and planks down the cash for his advertising. \Ve never yet had to ask him for any money, and from the way he does business it seems we’ll never need to. There’s pleasure in doing business with men of this kind, and it would be' base ingratitud'e on our part not to wish him success. In this connection we have pleasure in saying that Peel the other shoeman is as good as the wheat And our regular settlements are al- ways satisfactory. There’ s nothing like leather and there must be some- thinxinittouakethangoodm MEDALS for Entrance Candidatesâ€" Those passing Mr. Gordon’s jewelry store may see the medals offered to Entrance Candidates some time ago. To set aside a misunderstanding we are advised to say that the silver med- alist is not entitled to the bronze one in the centre. The bronze one goes to the candidate taking second standing The silver medals are worth $8. each, being hand-made and hand engraved. There are. seventy letters on each which cost Mr. Gordon three cents a letter for engraving alone. Students in this work will do well to 8p“: up a little and endeavor to win one of those valuable prizes. THE (fk‘n'respondent from Henry,s lorners states that a team belonging to Mr. Hunter took fright at our gas- oline engine which caused them to run away etc. \Ve regret that anything of that sort should occur and in order that a repetition of the damage may not be laid to our charge we have removed the exhaust pipe and now the most nervous team inlay stand any where in the yard without danger of being frightned.

Mr. Stockton has been here about a year, and during that time he has proved himself a good citizen and en- deavored to conduct a good house. He intends buying a hotel elsewhere but has not. yet secured a suitable place. W E have been informed that Mr. C. F. Stockton, of the. Middaugh House, who recently sold out his business here has bought the Queens hotel in Mount Forest. During his stay here we have learned to look upon Mr. Stockton as a good man for the business, a gentle- man in his treatment of the public, a man who minds his own affairs, and tries at all times to keep a good orderly house. THE Trustees of Hutton Hill School are advertising for a teacher to begin work immediately after the holidays.
