Fownes Bros.' and Dent's heavy gloves in furnishings room. A good line of warm Scotch wood gloves; also heavy underwear. Choice patterns of 4-inhands. Look at our Mackintoshes and rubber coats before the next rainy day. Plenty of warm overshoes and thin rubbers...
...wholly uncalled for attack upon the instructor in English 12. The writer complains because the criticisms on his themes are pithy and to the point-because the instructor gives his real opinion in a few words, of poor and hasty work.

Our correspondent of to-day may be right in the main, but we thin that the position which he takes is narrow and somewhat superficial. Further comment on the subject we shall reserve until a later issue...
