If the grocer were asked to contribute groceries to one abundantly able to pay for them he would refuse. The proprietor of a mewspaper has to pay for the free advertising if the beneficiary does not, and it is one of thehardest things to be learned by many that a newspaper has space in its columns to rent. To give it away for anything less than living rates would certainly be as fat- al as for a landlord •to furnish house rent free.

During the busy hot season this matter is frequently forgotten, and as winter is corning on many subscribers have not recollected that they are owing for their paper. This would matter little to us if the number of those who let the time slip by were small, but when it runs up into the hundreds, 'none owing, less than a dollar, it is a matter of greater importance, If you have let this.mat- ter escape your attention you would confer a favor by attending to it at once. Presbytery of Huron. The Presbytery of Huron met at the manse, Hensall, onTucsday. The prin- cipal matter brought before the meet- ing was a request of Rev. Mr. Martin of Exeter that Chiselhurst be separat- ed from Exeter and provision made for its supply. Chiselhurst elders strongly objected to. the change stat- ing that Mr. Martin was greatly be- loved by the entire congregation and that they were averse to union with Kippen. Similar objections were rais- ed. by Hillsgreen as to the proposal to unite them. with Varna. After a thorough study of the situation -the Presbytery decided to not interfere with present conditions.

Chicken Pie a Favorite, The Chicken Pie Social held in the Caven Presbyterian Church under the auspices of the Ladies Aid, ,on Friday evening last and the program .render- ed in connection therewith, was a 'function of more than ordinary inter- est. The night was all that could be desired and as a consequence a large `number were in attendance. The lad- ies had provided an abundance of everything • necessary to satisfy the 'appetite of a hungry crowd and the program after supper was a fitting conclusion to the affair. The good things having been dealt with Mr. J. G. Stanbury was assigned to the chair, who filled the duties in his usual hap- py and acceptable manner. Addresses were delivered by Revd's. Perkins and Godwin and a lengthy program of singing, reading, musical selections, etc., was listened to with a great deal. of interest and satisfaction. The pro- ceeds amounted to $72.

A selection of Love Songs from the Wagner Operas, rend- ered into English by Richard de Gal-, lienne and beautifully, illustrated in colors by J. C.

A very clever paper entitled "The Court Circles of the Republic;"' de- scribes some unique phases of Wash- ington social life is from an unnamed contributor, who is said to write from the inner circles of society. There are short stories from the pens of F. Hop- kinson Smith, Robert Grant, Alice Brown. Mary Stewart. Cutting and El- more Elliot Peake, and such interest- ing writers as Julia Magruder, L.

In addition, there are the reg tilar departments of the magazine, with many special articles on topics relating' to /.woman's interests within and without the homer . A writer says:—It's been niy exper- ience that you've got to have liesure to be unhappy. Half the troubles in this world are imaginary, andit takes time to think them up. But it's these oftener than the real troubles that breaks a young husband's back and a young wife's heart. A few mien and more women can be happy idle when th're single; but once you marry them to each other, they've got to find work or they'll find trouble. Everybody's got to raise something in this world, and unless people raise a job, or crops. or children, they'll raise Cain. A woman can find fun from the base- ment to the nursery of her house, but give her a license to gad the streets and a bench of matinee tickets and she'll find discontent, There's always an idle woman or an idle man in every divorce case.

Hicks•for November, The last regular, general storm per- iod for November is from the 24th to 29th.: As is indicated by the storm diagram, this last period is' covered by the 'Venus disturbance which is central in December. The increasing force of this period will be severely felt from about Friday the 25th to 28th. But marked storm conditions will appear about the time of the full moon on the .22nd. Upon the whole, we warn our readers of very general and forceful storms during the last six or eight days of November. These storms will be largely boreal in char- acter, making navigation on the north Atlantic disagreeable to dangerous, causing heavy gales over the whole lake regions, with general rains over the interior, turning to sleet and snow, with an early blizzard possible in west- ern to northern parts of the country. In every probility a November cold wave will spread over much of the country, bringing frosts even into the southern states, during the last days of the month. Golden Wedding. Fifty years ago last Friday Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Buckingham, of town, were married in Devonshire, England. It was a happy event and the young people started out on the tempestuous sea of life. Time sped on, and as the years rolled by the family circle grew until the union was blessed by the ad- vent of five children, two of whom. have passed away, the other three still living. The surviving ones are, William, Mrs. James .Weekes and Henry. During all these fifty years the worthy couple have journeyed down life's path together, fulfilling the marriage vows and happy in adminis- trating each to the other, and though sorrow has darkened their pathway at times, yet a firm but never faltering faith in Him who does all things for the best, has enabled them to see the silver lining to the cloud, and we find them on Friday of last week active and happy, surrounded by a number of warm friends celebrating their golden wedding. This event was cele- brated,at the placial home of their son, Mr. Henry Buckingham, Main st., and those in. attendance did honor to the:estimable and worthy couple, not. onlyby their presence but by tokens of remembrance that may serve toput them in mind of the interest their friends feel in 'their happiness. The presents included a purse of gold from relatives, Supper was served, the spread comprising a splendid collation of choice delicacies which was enjoyed by all. After tea all indulged in a so- cial session for a time and then the guests bade the couple good night and withdrew to their homes, impressed with the pleasant memories that will long linger with all in attendance, and sincere in the wish that a kind Provi- dence may yet have many •years of happiness in store for the aged couple. An interesting feature of the. occasion was the innovation of the christening ceremony performed by the Rev. Dr. .Hannon upon little Allen, son of Mr. Henry Buckingham and little Mary, daughter of Mr. Alex. Moriock, of Detroit. Additional Locals on ist Page AYLMER WELL PUMP.
