THURSDAY JUNE 27,1907 The Fl,hing Frog. The fishing frog buries himself In the mud and lies partly concealed In weeds, where, with his huge mouth open, he fishes for his dinner. On the back of his head there are three spines. the longest of which he bends forward In front of his mouth, gently swaying It In the water. At last it attracts a young fled, which makes a spring for the supposed worm, when-snap—the mouth Is closed and Mr. Fishtug frog bas hail his dinner. The archer fish catches his dinner In quite n different Way. Just out of his reach on the leaf Of a plant growing on the river's brink rests a fly, basking In the sunlight. Suddenly a little stream of water strikes It; it loses Its balance and falls. only to be caught by the curniug little archer below. --Field and Stream.

I:mel es. --On Wednesday, June 12, the home of Mr. C. Beaver was the scene of a very pretty wedding when his popular young daughter. Miss Beulah, became the happy bride of Dr. J. NV. Orme of Centralia. Never did a bride look more lovely than this one, she being robed in a handsome costume of white lace over white silk, the pleasing and bewitching effect greatly enhanced by a long tulle veil tastefully arranged and kept in place by a cornet wreath of orange blossoms all in perfect harmony with the usual she wee bouquet of lovely bridal roses held in her hand. At one o'clock Miss Vivien Beaver, the bride's sister, en- tered the spacious drawing room, which was beautifully- decorated with smilax, and while she rendered the wedding march, the bride entered re- clining on the arm of her father. She was followed by her sister Miss Ella. who looked quite charming in white silk and carrying pink carnations, and acted the part of bridesmaid, while Albert Stockwell of London did the duties of best man. In the room an arch had been erected which was ar- tistically- decorated with evergreens and it was under this the bridal pert,- took artytook their stand. The tying of the knot was performed by Rev. J. H. Orate father of the groom, assisted by Rev. J. W. Andrews and was witnessed by the immediate relatives and friends. At the conclusion of the impressive ceremony congratulations were then extended to the wedded couple after which the company repaired to the dining room where an appetizing and delicious lunch was partaken of. The bridal gifts were then inspected, which were large and varied, to fact the usual fine testimonies to the love and esteem of the bride's friends were admired by all. The groom's gift to the bride was a gold crescent set with pearls, to the bridesmaid it gold locket, and the groomsman a pair of gold cuff links. The happy couple left on the evening train fe1 a trip (been the rt. Lawrence to Montreal. The bride's going -away gown was of brown chif- fon broadcloth, with hat to match. On their return they will take up their residence at Centralia where the Dr. enjoys a good practice. While we are sorry at parting with one of our pop- ular and beloved young ladies we heartily join in extending to Dr. and Mrs. Ortne our very beat wishes. The Advocate joins with the well washers.

ADDRESS AND PRESENTATION.—A number of the members of the Ladies' Aid Society gathered at the home of Mrs. Andrew Hicks a few evenings ago and presented one of their number, Mrs. (Rev.) Andrews, with a handsome silver mounted fruit dish, as a slight token of the high esteem in which she is held by that Society. Mrs. Andrews made a suitable reply. Below is a copy of the address: To Mrs. Andrews We, the members of Centralia La- dies' Aid have assembled here this evening for the purpose of expressing, in a slight degree, our regrets at your departure from among us. You have always been willing to take your part in any work connected with our Aid, and we would not forget the valuable services you have rendered us. We ask you to accept this gift of silver- ware, not for its value but as an evi- dence of our respect, and we hope that wherever your lot may be cast, in the order of divine Providence, you may ever find a field of usefulness, and in the ever changing future may retain the same spirit and kindly nature which }narked you here, and we pray that when a long life of Christian use- fulness is ended it will be but the be- ginning of an eternity of joy.

Andrews was called to the platform and the following address was read: Dear Friend and Pastor: It is with feelings of sincere regret that we hear of your intended remov- al from amongst us and we take this opportunity of bidding you Got speed in your new life. Looking back over the past, we are reminded of the quick flight of time, for it seems impossible to believe that it is three years since you first came among us. During those three years, we. as a League, have been helped and benefitted by your ministry; you have taught us by both precept and example. Your teaching has always been such a kind as to make us better and humbler Christians, more faithful to our League and church and not to our church alone or to the Methodist denomina- tion alone, hut to the church universal whose head and founder is Christ him- self. By your example you have tried to build up our League. You were al- ways on the look out for new members and have tried to leave us in a better condition than when you came, and we believe you have, both spiritually and in strength. It is said that the test of a man's life anywhere is wheth- er he leaves the place better than be found it or not. Putting that teat to your life here we can truthfully say that it has been A great success and God's blessing has rested on both you as our pastor, and us as your people. But now, those pleasant relations are about to be severed and we must hid you adieu. In doing so, that God's richest blessing may continue to rest richly teem you and your family and that wherever your lot may he ca•t, it may he a happv tine, is the wish of your friends of ('entralie Epwnrth League. Signed on behalf of the League, F. L Essery, Pres; Mary Pym and R. Wilson 1st and 2nd V. Pres. Rev. Andrews made a very suitat.le reply and thanked the Leaguers for their very flattering address.

As we pass through the country we see churches, dwellings, houses, cheese factories, etc., each of which has had at. interesting history of activity could we but read them. Such is the case with the Malcolm or Rogerville fact- ory. For years it was the scene of it brisk business. 1 remember about the year 1870 I was up there shovelling gravel in Mr. T. 1's pit for Mr. J. h. and D. Richard. After the day's work was done I had some business down at the factory. Mr, D. R. bitched on to a vehicle, which from the size of the wheels you would be led to suppose was made more for work than for jLeasure and before the end of the ourney 1 was quite satisfied of the fact. Buggies were not so common then as nowadays. When we came to the factory there was the music of the animals that did their part to make it interesting and profitable, and within the factory was the hum of a busy life of activity, where now quiet- ness reigns supreme. Time bas turn- ed its tide another way. (There is now .the creamery instead of the cheese factory.) The grass has grown over the path, the little trees are near- ly covering the place, the source of the spring from which the factory was supplied with water is grown over with grass, all lending a lonely, deso- lateness to the place. The only cheer is from the music of the little rill com- ing from this spring. It runs on and on while many of the active workers of that day have long since dropped through the broken arches of the bridge of life. Many of them were the pioneers of this country and stett- ed its industries and its churches. Others have taken their place in the carrying on of the great interests of the nation. There is no danger if the moral and spiritual life of the church be maintained that the pioneers have started. All the rest will be a success. We left the factory for home, a dis- tance of about five miles,' but, sure, it seemed farther. Our seat wee a board placed across between the two wheels. I sat on the left side and grasped the board to keep from the sudden jars as we dashed along, not ►nissing every stone or rut and it seemed to be after shaking down something that was lacking inside and from the feeling I did not know where I should spread nut before we got our jouney's end. But at last we arrived and felt quite relieved. After supper at Mr. K's matters were much improved. Thomas ('ann, Thames Road. Zurich J. J.
