Her age was 27 years, 3 months ancl 27 days. The funeral took place, to the Exeter cemetery, yesterday (Wednesday.) Nominations.

Post of Tuesday, Sopt, 18th, 'says: "A large and fashionable audience attended at our pretty Acad- emy of Music last evening in honor of' the opening of the house for the sea- son, and those present are to -day con- evatulating each other On their good fortune in having witnessed the fir* presentation of "A Cavalier of h'rance" by the Shipman Lyceum Co. The play -a romantic drama of the D'Artagnen type -depicts a number of stirring events at the Court of Henry III. of France about the year 1585. In the opinion of many the scenes in "A Cav- alier of France" surpass in interest those in "The Three Musketeers" and the climaxes are truly dramatic in their power. The costumes worn were mag- nificent, and the special Seenery bright and appropriate. .Mr. Shipman's com- pany is strong and well balanced. Mr. De Grasse, as Rene de Proisac, the Cavaliexedeserves the highest eulogism that can be bestowed as despite the fact that this was his first appearance in the character, before an audience, he was cool and self-possessed and act- ed his part faultlessly. The other mem- bers of the company took their parts well and we confidently recommend " A Ca,valiee of France" to the theatre- goine people of Canada.'This great proeuction appear at the Opera, House, Exeter, next Saturday evening.

The Family Herald and Weekly Star, of Montreal, have a record for giving their subscribers the best premium pictures given te newspeper readers, They seem to know exactly what the Canadiao public want. This season they have introduced an entirely new subject and one that is certainly to be appreciated. They are offering two beantiful pictures. The one is the masterpiece of the famous Hoffman, "CHRIST IN THE TEM- PLE," a most beautiful study, the col-, oaring of the painting6is superb, and the drawing of thefaces is simply wonderful, This is particularly true of the face of Jesus, the countenance is full of boyish beauty. No more high- ly spiritual conception of the face and figure of the Master has ever been placed on canvas. , Around Riin are shown the Rabbis, grave and thought- ful men, whose astonishment at the wisdom of the youth is strikingly de- picted. The picture is 17x24, and is a boo utiful stud yfor any home. Their second picture is also a work of art and at once appeals to every Ca- nadian heart. Our,Canadian soldiers are returning from south Africa.- and this picture, entitled "HOME FROM THE WAR," is a handsome souvenir of the occasion. It represents one of our brave soldiers in his khaki uni- form opening the door of the xoptn in which his dear old mother,unconSnious of his presence, is sitting anxiously reading over and over the letter from her boy in Smith Africa. The pieture tells the story. It is teue to life. The colouring is perfea. lt is 17x21 inches on the best quality of paper. It is bound to be a popular pictere with Canadians. Every yearly subscriber, to that great family -paper, the FanailY Herald and Weekly Star, will receive a copy of each of these beautiful pictures. It is truly the biggest dollar's worth ever offered, A descriptive pamphlet goes with each picture. Any of our readers can secure one of the pamphlets by sending his name and address to the Family Herald and Weekly Star,Mont-- - real. SUICIDE BY HANGING. Woodstock, Ont.., Nov. 13. -Geo. 13.
