NOT MEN RECIPROCITY A FRUITFUL THEME The .\dvance is fully decided that the reciprocity question is a grand subject for debate, and we're glad it popped up. Without a reciprocity spur how could the Toronto World and The News show their hiyalty ! If Mr. Fielding had not brought material for the reciprocity squabble home from Washington with bim it is just po.ssible that Cnnada could have been annexed to the United States without a protest from the aforementioned faithful watch dogs whose loyalty, thank goodness, is now thoruuglily awakened â€" and too, wouldn't it do your heart good to see how thoroughly British the Conuervative party as a wiiolo is ? Levity aside, and judging altogether from the attitude of Canadian newspa- pers, reciprocity looks like thereat thing, neatly wrapped up and properly addres- sed. There is a lot to be said on both sides of the question, and the newspapers and jMjliticians are doing their best to say it all. However, the opposition to the scheme .seems to (in the main) present the more frenzied tactics, whUe the supporters are more dignified and calm in their arguments. Of course this may be only policy, but it gives weight to the qiesti'.n in the eyes of the man who doesn't know anything about it, and who i.sn't ashamed to .say so. The .Advance suggests that while reciprocity may ni t be quite ihe grandest move which Canada ever made politically, stdl it is scarcely the gold brick that certain hy.steric»l speeches and editorials would paint it. If there is a living man in Canada or the L'nitcd States or elsewhere who can positively foretell the results of recipro- city we wish he would stand up where he can be seen and tell us about itâ€" but he can't, aud the only really sensible course, it scemv to us, is to give the thing a de- cent show. It cannot ^kill) our trade all at once, and if the trade really does give signs of going into a decline (which is highly improbable)â€" well, the parliament will know what to do and will surely do it ([uickly. The Walkerton Telescope lieipsd Itself to our tale of the sail flavored lemou pic demoustratiou, publisLicd several weeks ago. Bro. iludson, liowever, quoted it as happening near Walkerlon ! Such a lack of priuciple Id a follower of his beloved profession almost drives the scribe of The Ad- vance to shed a teai . Evidently the Telescope man classes the yarn as a sort of fable â€" and as it was wonder- fully well written he chooses to apply it to Walkerton and receive the glory in his own circle of writing the charm- ii^gly clever little skit himself. We can assuie our cribbing cotem that the event actually happened, aud that in changing the application he has ut- tered an untruth and distorted the vision presented to those poor benigbt- ened individuals who use thcTelescope so trustingly. Next time, Mr. Tele- ecop.e when we relate in such a rip> pingly clever manner a curious episode kindly credit it duly to The Advance if you use it â€" and do not betray the trusting faith of your unsuspecting readers.

FRESH READING MATTER Ljist week the king (through his ser- vant, the mail carrier) dumped some fourteen sacks of choice litoi<tture down in the post office here. This bulky con- signment of reading matter was catalogs â€" mail order catalogs â€" and they will, probably draw tiade and peel a layer or s(j ofl' the rolls carried by a great many of The Advance'^ readers. The mail order way of doing business is not the ideal w»y. It iixiuires too much faith. The local merchant is on the spot and ready to (ill the local needs as they arise, and has the advantage of being able to show geods. but if he can he successfully met by » firm doing a long range business there is a " nigger in the fence " somewhere. If the local man dies not compete with the city liriii in price for the same ((uality bo is probably making a good profit ; and if he «;iin do .s<i and does not advertise '.ho fact he shows more plainly than words can ex- press it that he does not want nor ex- pect a largo local trade. Tlie big mail order linn year after year gives the non-advertising merchsnt very good lessons by example, but the man who loses by it fails to see the causo, and so lets the live one continue to reap the hsrvest while he is content with the husks. South Line, Artemesia Good roads and spring-like weather at time of writing. The crows are back from the south.

Look out fur ice cream next summer, fur Jim's a hustler too. Sam. Robertson, our business man, is on an extended visit at the home of A. Currie. What might have resulted in an acci- dent on Wednesday night at the literary meeting was prevented by a quick move made by a looker on.

James Wilson, Booth- evening at the home of Maple Glen Creamery To Our Patrons: As our creamery is being put in first class shape for another season's opera- tions, which will begin as soon as condi- tions will permit, we take this opportun- ity of thanking our patrons who in the past season so a'tjiy assisted us in this en- terprise, and would solicit your continued support, along with as many new friends as can see it to their advantage to dea with us. Last year six thousand dollars was paid for cream, and the results of the season's operations were generally satisfactory. Now is a good time to stork up with icu, for the coming summer, without which the best results cannot be obtained. Trusting the coming .season will be a profitable one for both patron and manu- facturer. We are, Vours most respectfully. Maple Gleu Creamery Co.

Thos Hall-Harbottle A quiet bnt pretty wedding took place on Wednesday, Feb. 22, at the home of Mr. and Mrs. George Harbottle, third line, Euphrasia, when their only daugh- ter, Euphemie, was united in raarri.-tge to Mr. Albert Hall of Keady. The cere- mony, which took place at 6 o'clock, was performed by the Rev. Mr. Milligan of Flesherton. The bride, who was unat- tended, wore a gown of cream silk eoli- enne trimmed with silk over lace and satin ribbon over a dress of cream spun glass silk. After the ceremony a dainty weddine dejeuner was served, ouly the immediate relatives being present. Mr. and Mrs. Hall left for their home in Keady Thursday morning, the bride travelling in a handsome brown broad- cloth suit with silk net blouse, and wear- ing a brown velvet hat with white plumes. The bride was one of our most popular young ladies and carries with her the best wishes of a large circle of friends. DOES IT PAY, OR IS THIS CHARITY? That not only does .idvertisiiig pay, but thut it is an absolute necessity is the di'oply rooted conviction of the Union Pacific and Southern Pacific railroads in the L'nitod States, which will spend one and one ipiarter million dollars in giving publicity to the mm its of their lines this year. Do these great companies give this amount just to help along the newspa- pers Slid magazines which secure the imijor portion of the appropiiation, we would like to know. Echo answers " know."
