SOW)
A golden wedding is not a common
occurrence and those who have been
spared to live together through half a
century, have, most assuredly, tense
for joy and thanksgiving. Mt. and
Mrs. Samuel Johnston were happily
united in marriage on June 12, 1862.
Mr. Johnston was born near Toronto in
1837, and moved with the family to
Waterloo County. In 1855 Mr. John-
ston turned his attention to the Queen's
Bush and settled in Iiowick. Mrs.
Johnston, whose maiden name was Jane
Wallace, was born in Dublin County,
Troland, The family it emigrated to
m
Y
Canada and settled in Whitby Town-
ship and Came to FTowick in 1854. Mr.
and Mrs. Johnston settled on the 9th
con. on the hotnestead, now occupied
by their son, James, in a log shanty,
10 by 12 feet, the roof being of elm
bark, They endured the privations and
hardships incident to pioneer life, and
CHILDHOOD DANGERS.
No symptons that indicate any of
the ailments of childhood should be
allowed to pass without pro pt at-
tention. The little ailment lay soon
become a serious ono and perhaps a
little life passes out. If aby's Own
Tablets are kept in the Ouse minor
troubles can be pro p y cured and
serious ones averted. The Tablets
are guaranteed absolutely safe and
can be given to the newborn babe as
well as the growing child. Mrs. Ar-
thur Drapeau, Ment Carmel, Que.,
says: "u can give Baby's Own Tab-
lets to my little one without fear,
well knowing the beneficial results
that will follow their use," The Tab-
lets are sold by medicine dealers or
by mail at 25 cents a box from The
Dr. Williams' Medicine ('o., Brock-
ville, Ont.
by industry and thrift, they added
farm to farm until they owned 630
acres, now occupied by their four sons
and son-in-law, Reeve Winter. They
occupied the homestead for forty 3 ears,
on which they had erected one of the
finest brick residences in the township
and two fine bank barns, besides other
improvements. Mr. Johnston had one
of the finest herds of pure-bred Short-
horn cattle to be found in the district,
always capturing the red tickets at the
surrounding fairs. Mr. Johnston took
an interest in municipal politics and
occupied a seat at the Howiek Council
Board for ten years, for three years
being Deputy -Reeve. Seven years ago
they retired to Fordwich to spend the
rest of their days in rest, quietness
and enjoyment of the competency they
had laid up in younger days.

A pretty wedding took place at
Woodslee Farm, the home of Mr. and
Mrs. John McNaughton, on Saturday,
when Nettie, their eldest daughter,
became the bride of Malcolm S. Aiken -
head, London. The bride wore a beau-
tifuI gown of cream marquisette, the

blossoms and she carried a shower
boquet of bridal roses and ferns. At
high noon the bride entered the parlor

fire was noticed and before he could
get rid of the missle there was an ex-
plosion blowing off the thumb and por-
tions of the 3rcl and 4th fingers of the
left hand and pushing the thumb and
first finger of the right hand. The
wounded members were speedily dress-

Two Famous Bands.
Two famous bands from England wil'
make the musical attractions at the Can-

something long to be remembered. The
Scots Guards Band from Buckingham
Palace, the third of this famous brigade
of bands brought across the ocean by the
Exhibition people, will alternate on the
band stand with the Besses O'Th'Barn,
which all lovers of band musk recognize
as Britain's best brass band. Two such
musical attractions have never before
been brought together on the continent.
