Is the baby too thin?
Does he increase too slow-

Are you in constant fear
he will be ill?
Then give him more flesh.
Give him more power to
resist disease. He certainly
needs a fat -forming food.
Scott's Emulsion its just
that food. It will make the
baby plump; increase the
weight; bring color to the

whole body. Thin children
take to it as naturally as they

good humor, which seemed ale() to infect
the audience whokept good order till the
whole 87 numbers wore gone through
with, which took nearly three hours to
ecconirlislr, although one number had
to be dropped on aeoount .of the
absence of one of the actors. The
progr`azn eozrsisted of vocal awl in-
strumental music, recitations, dia.
logues :aud tzibleeux. The selections
were good, the characters as represented
were well sustained, and clearly showed
that their teacher was a master band in
the art of training and the handling of
children for dramatic effect as well as in
the daily routine of school Worse. We
dare not venture to particularize, in fact
all the parts enacted would have
done credit to professionals. Some
of the music seemed to make the
old folks feel young again while the
young people could scarcely keep control
of their pedal extremoties. It is to be
regretted that Miss Orvis is leaving the
section and to show the esteem. in which
she is held it was expressed in tangible
shape for at the close of the program.
She was called to the platform when
Miss Lucy •1VIcKoague and Master Andy
Mitchell presented her with a beautiful
album, purse and a handsome gold watch
guard, while Master Henry Thornton
read the following address ;—
Mess MINNir Onws,.
Dear Teacher—We, the pupils
of S. S. N. 0, Turni;se y, who have been
under your kind care aud instruction
during the past two years, cannot allow
you to leave us without in some small
degree, expressing our appreciation of
your interest in our behalf,
We have found you to be diligent in
your duties, kind in your treatment and
ever looking after the advancement of
those under your care.
We regret that circumstances are such
that you cannot continue with us in the
relation of our teacher, but trust that
wherever your lot may be cast you will
ever have a kind recollection of your
stay with us, and we can assure you that
you will ever have a place in our affec-
tions.We ask you to kiudly accept this
watch guard, purse and album, not be -
because of its intrinsic worth, but as a
small token of our esteem and 'regard,
and we trust that when the Great
. Teacher sees fit to summon ns to our
mansious on high, we as teacher and
scholars may all be there.
Wishing you a Merry Christmas and
a Happy New Year.
Signed on behalf of the school:— •
Luo MOKAGnx,
ANDY MIxoneee,
HENRY' THORNTON,
CzArtu n ANDERSON.
e proceeds netted the handsome
of $$14, less expenses With the
fends obtained Miss Orvis purchased a
handsome 8 -day clock, a large dictionary
and a beautiful• picture and frame, all
of which was turned over to the school.
We nearly forgot a vote of thanks to all
who helped to make the entertainment a
success, by way the chairinau came near
getting one, but instead they gave- him
three rousing Canadian cheers, . which
no doubt made a deeper impression on
his hearing sensibilities, and we suppose
was just as easy carried away.

There were laid away to rest in Tees -

viz:—Peter Grant and Alex McGregor,
It was a singular co -incidence that both
departed this life about the same time,
aud the same day both ware laid away
to rest in the silent city of the dead -
Their life and character wore similar,
they were both quit and unobtrusive,
amiable to a degree, a ys abiding'by
the golden rule, ., owed by their
neighbors, and respeotod, by all, being
noble examples for all to follow. It
seemed as if even the forces of nature
were quiet audaubduod on the solemn:
occassion, for as they were laid away in.
their last resting place the •sun shone
put clear and beautiful as a unidsummor
