Another summer is numbered a- mong the past, soon the earth will • assume her whiie mantle and all na- ture •will be sleeping. Autumn, or as it is more naturally expressed â€" the fall â€" has a loveHness pecuhar to it. The exquisite clear- ness of the atmosphere, the grand serenity in the gorgeous tinted woods, rich, even in the very signs of change and decay, insensibly sheds a feehng of calmness and awe, not regret, over us. To portray the innumerable shades, from the deepest copper to the bright- est scarlet, the darkest orange to the most brilliant yellow, with varied tints of vivid green, baffles the most dex- terous painters or skilful poets; it is then the forest has the appearance of »ne gigantic flower garden. We are now in the midst of and enjoying a ' time ago it was summer, and almost before we are are, the dazzhng snow of winter will be with us, only to be succeeeded by another spring. The fall, more than any other season, is one of the most solemn reminders of the brevity of time. The rapidity with which the seasons steal over us, one after another, leads us to ex claim tempus fu^tl What onr village fathers are doing. If anything towards incorporatiuu.

The children who took part acquitted themselves very creditably. Nettie and Mable Clark are specially worthy of mention having recited exceedingly well.

Moffatt Bros' of the Markdale Foundry are pushing their business with energy and skill, which is sure to bring satisfactory results. Their work in the machine department, of which they make a specialty, is giving general satisfaction, and their busi- ness largely increasing. They have recently cast a larf,e driving pulley which measured seven feet in diam- eter, 15^ inches face and weighs about 2,000 lbs., this pulley is now being turned in tbeir large lathe and will in a few days be ready to send out to- gether with a 40 horse power engine which they are overhauling and re- fitting. They have recently enlarged their furnace so that a casting from 4,000 to 6,000 lbs. can be now made in their foundry. The building is in some degree hampering their opera- tions but they hope soon to surmount this difficulty by erecting a sttbstan- tial building of stone or brick. In the mean time we can cheerful- ly recommend them to the confidence of the public as men of honor and rare mechaiucal abihty. Movements Boand Towb. Mrs. Poppim into Peter McArthor's house. M.

Fortunately the day was the most delightful of the season and the people, although not more than half of them were done harvesting, turned out in unusually large numbers. The exhibit of horses was particularly fine surpassing it is said, in numbers and quality the show at the great Northern, in CoUing- wood, or even the East Grey at Flesherton. Most remarkable among the equine species was the thoroughbred colt 16 months old, owned by Andrew McGirr Son, of Fever- sham, this splendid animal is Bymmetrical throughout and of enormous size, for his age weighirg 1,300 lbs, measuring 25 inches around the fore arm, and 12 inches around the smallest part of the bone. The show of cattle, sheep, and pigs might be improyed, although many of them were fine animals. The display of agricultural ilnplements was poor, some excellently finished carriages were shown. In. the Orange Hall, which was wrechedly inadiquate for the occasion there were crowded together in infinite varie.ies the cereal products lady's fancy work roots and all kinds of vegetables, to- gether with the products of the dairy aud apiary. Most note worthy among the ladies work of the art, were the shell, needle, and feather works, of Mrs. Spence. Also tbe seed frame, and other fancy work of Mrf. J. Taylor, were particularly nice. The days proceedings was brought to a pleasant termi- nation by a fine exhibition of beautifully dretssed and healthy looking babies, the laurel however was awarded to the in'ant son of Jas. Christie, of Singhampton, who was the best pleased man on the ground. The following is the prize list â€" HoBsss. â€" General Paxpose Team, Thomas Hawton, D C McFarlane.

Printing may be divided into four elabses afi follows Firstâ€" The customer brings " in his order in a quiet, gentlemanly way with "good morning," or "afternoon," and says "here is a job which please get it up in good style." He does not ask the price â€" requires no proof his copy is good, and he gives no trouble. His order claims immediate attention â€" ^it is set up in the best style, and printed on the best paper. There are no errors, for the printer has confidence in himself and in his customer The work gives great aatiafitc- tion, and when the bill is sent around he is perfectly satisfied and pays the money charged with pleasure. He beUeves in the printer, and the printer belieyes in him. This is first-class printing.
