Huston, of Exeter, were joined in Wedlock's bonds. Re- latives and close personal filen& of' the bride and bridegroom made op the marriage party, and the house was prettily decorated with asters and roses. Precisely at 1 o'clock, Rev. J. W. Robinson commenced the cere- mony that made, the twain one, and at its conelusion those present partook of a dainty wedding repast. The bride's gown Was of white organdie, of white asters. The flower ghl, Miss Winnie Huston, niece of the groom, wore a dress of white organdie trim- med with Valenciennes lace and in- sertion, and her boquet was of pink asters,and the ring bearer,Jack Swartz, nephew of the bride, was a smart -ring bearer. Mr. and Mrs. Huston left by the 3.15 train for their future home, Exeter, and received a hearty and pretty send off, flowers being shower- ed after them abundantly. The bride's going -away dress was of navy blue cheviot, white silk and a handsome plumed blapk velvet hat. On arriving at Exeter the newly married cotqfle were met by a large manlier of their friends,who Afterwards tendered them a reception. The bride was well re- inembe,red by her lc/ rge circle of friends, ns testified by the many valuable brid- al gifts of which she was the renipient."

The Epwortb Leagnes of the Exeter District held a very snccessful conven- tion on Tuesday of this -Week in JaMes street church, Exeter. Rev, C. W. Brown, BAD., President of the Distrait Association, occupied the chair and Miss Ada Hutton, of Centralia, dis- charged well her duties as Secretary. The morning session was opened at 10 o'clock by very hearty devotional exercises, after which a business com- mittee of five persons was appointed. The reports of the district Secretary and Treasurer were receive& • land adopted. The Secretary's report evi- denced that, while there is not a num- •erical advance in the Leagues, there is a deepening interest among the young people, specially in the work of Mis- sions. Nearly $400 was raised during the last year for missionary purposes, and the intention is to-do better still next year. The first topic of the day, 4' What benefit is our League pledge?), was ably introduced by Rev. S. A. An- derson, of Kirkton, and WaS followed by a spirited discussion in which the opinion was 'strougly expressed -that there should be no lowering- of the standards, but an endeavor to bring the menibership up to the standar'd now existing. An open conference followed on ,"The relation of the :Ep- Worth League to the temperance Clues - tion," of whiCht the key -note was. "Ed- ucate, agitate, legislate." -t. The after- noon session, began with a prayersand praise service led by -Rev. T.C. Sander- son, of Birr. .A conversation ensued on "The importance' of Junior ;League that more attentfon should he given to the boys and girls, and that. the great difficulty, is to secure suitable persons, who can devote time tosthis work, as Superinteodents of Junior Leagues. Very exeelleat addresses were then given by -Rev. G. H. LOng, of Kippen, on " Systennistic giving. to Missions"; Rev. N.G. Rosen, of Sarnia, on "The forWard movement"; Rev. B. L. Hutton, of Centralia, on "The Holmes, of Granton, on "Spirituality o the League." The session was an excellent one, and was closed with a very impressive consecration service ed by Rev. R. Millyard, of Main street church. At the evening session the Jody of the church was filled by dele- gates itnd friends. Dr. Anderson con- uoted an open song servic. After ome reports of committees the. Presi- lent elect, Mr. Wesley II.,1-1arvey,was ntroduced and cordially received. In- piring addresies were given by Rev. G. H.

J. 1 4 in it Hicks' For -est For October A Mars period of disturbances con_ tral any time in October is sufficient cause for apprehending heavy, autum- nal storms. Such a period is central on October 2nd, extending beyond the middle of the month. Coincident with this centre of the Mars period is a regular Vulcan Storni period, extend- ing from the 1st to the 6th. We will scarcely have recovered from heavy equinoctial storms late in September, when renewed storm conditions will beginto appear in the western parts of the country. Temperatures, bar- ometers and winds will all give pre- monitions of coming change. .Be- tween the 2nd and the 6tb, these co 1- ditions will grow into cloudineSs, and rain and snow will touch many parts of the country in their transition from west to east about Wednesday the 2nd to Saturday the 5th. As change to warmer conies immediately in front of active storm areas, so change to colder may be counted on, even before this fact in mind, and also that the actual storms of most periods last only it feW hours in any one locality. From the 8th to the 10th anti -storm conditions will give place to return of falling barometer and other cenditiOns leading to more storms of rain and snow.
