their eldest daughter, Miss Ora J. Maxwell
nod Mr. Thomas H. Erwin were united in
merrier by Rev. 0. E. Fuller, of St. jelons
Episcopal church, in the presence of the im-
mediate friends and relatives of the family.
The presents tendered this young couple
were irony and of a substantial nature,
keartiongst them we may roeution a nest house
and lot from the bride's parents, also valu-
sble gifts from Canadian friends and rela-
tives of Mr. Erwin, besides those of a useful
mid ornamental nature from Midland friends
end, relatives, all tending tig show universal
love and good -will. The bFide's father, D.
1). Maxwell, is well and favorably known in
our city, having been for years connected
with its lumbering intbrests. The groom,
Thomwi 11. Eewin, has been a resident of
- Midland for about four years, and has had
theme of the baking department of Me. H.
nin Beacom, in which he has given universal
satisfaction. Of the bride we need say but
tittle, as she is well-known in thio her birth-
place, and is highly esteemed, her amiable
disposition winning and retaining for her
the love and respect of all with whom she
comes in contact. Mr. and Mrs. Erwin
start out in life under very favorable aus-
pices. They will shortly begin housekeep-
ing in their new hoe, where, we feel sure
we make no mistake in saying, the best
whhesof an who know them will follow."
OurSwan-At present there are a great
many on. the sick Bet, among them being
Mr; Siam, who bas been ill for tke pest six
Weeks and we are sorry to say is not inn
roving. Rev. Mr. Highley is also ' very
sick, being imable to attend to his servicee,

Teetrameilmt Mnrrneen-L-There was a
meeting held in the Temperance hall on Fri-
day evening last for the purpose of arriving
at some method to keep up the influence of
Mri. Hitchcox's grand Temperance Revival.
They elected our Reeve, Mr. N. H. Young,
President, and Miss Annie Moffatt, Secre-
tary. They came to the conclusion to hold
Gospel Temperance meetings. every Sunday
evening in their hall. There were ano 27
who sent in their names to become members
ef the Independent Order of Good Templars.
The meeting on Sunday was a grand suc-
cess, the hail being packed. Rev. Mr.
Campbell gave an eloquent address, and the
choir rendered some very nice music. We
have no doubt that these meetings will
lead to a great deal of good.

ing done Efl. I commenced business in
books, jewelry and stetionery here in e
email way, having but a small capital, but
steadily my businees has increased. I have
added first one line and then another, year
by year, until now I give constant employe
mentl to aim hands. My last venture was
buyilf out Mr. John McMillan's grocery ,
and c ockery business, and this year one of
my specialties will be. field and garden
seeds of every kind. I have been very care -
fel in selecting my stock and the public may
depend upon getting the most reliable seeds
at reasonable prices, and although I fillt
throwing lots of energy into the grocerYt
crockery and seed business,
I will also fully
keep up the reputation I have gained

the trade. The clothes we make are so thoroughly good that customers who
once wear them continue to do so, simply because they are good value. No
other kind will take their place. Our best argument as to the superiority of
the clothes we make, are the clothes themselves. THEY TALK. They .611

CONSTANCE, Feb. ist, 1893.
i
To I. V. FEAR, Druggist, Seafortk,
Ontario:
Dear Sir : For a long time past I
have been greatly distressed with
etomach trouble, suffering extreme pain
with headache nearly all the time. I
had tried every means within my
reach, without relief; even physician's
medicine had no effect. I was in a
very despondent way when, happen-
ing to be in Seaforth one day, some-
body recommended me to try Man-
drake Blood Bitters. As it had re-
lieved. so many, I thought it might
help me. I procured a bottle, and
truly the relief was almost magical.
From the first few doses I began to
improve, and, after taking a few
bottles, I am like a different person
altogether. Whereas life was a but
den to me, now it is a pleasure to live.
If ever I have any syniptoms of my
old trouble, a few doses of your 'valu-
able remedyfixes me all right. With
pleasure 1 reeommend Mandrake
-Blood Bitters..
