Bluevale. On Wednesday afternoon, May 22? a very pleasing eventtook place at "Sunny Slope Faarm,! Iiowick, the home of Mr. and Mrs. Bennett Rut - tan, when their youngest daughter, luny, was married to Milton Smith of Bluevale. Promptly at 4 o'clock, to the strains of Mendelsohn's wed- ding march played by Mr. L. Rattan, Morris, the parties took their place in the parlor. The bride, attired in a beautiful creation of white silk, trim- med with lace and chiffon, a long bridal veil caught up with a wreath of orange blossoms, and carrying a shower boquet of cream roses, was charming indeed. She was given away by her father, and unattended, save by a flower girl. who preceded her with a beautiful flower basket, in which was hidden the wedding ring. This office was well performed by lit- tle Elsie Gannett, who might have been taken for a fairy in her silk and lace gown and white slippers. After the nuptial knot was tied by Rev. W. B. Smith. B. A„ of College Avenue Church, Woodstock, brother of the groom, and congratulations extended, the guests to the number of fifty sat down to the most dainty of luncheons. The dining -room was beautifully decorated with evergreens and satin ribbons. As course after course was served, the most epicurean taste was more than satisfied, The numerous and exceptionally costly presents re- ceived showed in a measure the popularity of the young couple. Among these was a beautiful marble mantel clock, the gift of the gloom, and a handsome pearl the gift of the choir of the church where Miss Rut - tan had served for some time as organist. One of the most esteemed young ladies, she weds one of the most exemplary and highly respected young men of Bluevale, where Mr. Smith was born and where he has lived since. The young couple left about 8 p.m.; the bride attired in a travelling suit of grey, with hat to match. After a short honeymoon, they will return to the home of the groom, where they will take up their residence. Turnberry.

Henry Christie GROCER AND CROCKERY MERCHANT WINGHAM SHALL TillS NUISANCE CONTINUE ? To the Editor of the Advance ; Dear Sir t. -%lave you been down to the south end of the town lately ; if you have not, just take a walls down some evening and see if you think there is another town of the size and pretentions of Wingham in Canada, to -day, which would tolerate for 21 hours the dirt and nuisance, which are there dumped out on one of the principal thoroughfares to the town. The stench is something unbearable, to say nothing of the looks of it. 1 have been knocking around this coun- try for the last (10 years and have been from Niagara to Sault St. Marie, and from Montreal to the Northwest Ter- ritories, and must say I never saw anything like it, Have you got a Council in Wingham ? Ilave they ap- pointed a Board of Health and Medi- cal Health officer? If they have, are they doing their duty ? I, for one, think not. We hear a good deal about doing something to induce industries to start up in Wingharn. Do you think any man coming in from the south, and seeing what he would there see, would it be any inducement for him to locate in that town ? Or is it any wonder that some of the best men and some of the best industries are talking of leaving the town and locating in some other town, which has more re- gard for appearance and cleanliness?

Rivers, as he was starting for Brick Church, made a dash while the gate was being closed and got away, breaking up the buggy badly. The horse made straight for Brick Church (by force of habit), and would have got there had not Dr. Kirby and Wm. Watson overtaken him with the doc- tor's horse and buggy. Loss Of Appetite And Energy. Singly they are a worry -combined they become a burden, telling that waste has been immensely greater than the body's power to rebuild. The first need is to reconstruct the blood, make good the deficiency of red cells. Ferrozone improves indiges- tion, makes blood, the kind that nour- ishes and rebuilds. Quickly the ner- vous system responds to the new pow- er supplied by Nerviline. Strength returns, ambition revives, energy and endurance give the system just what it needs to maintain the balance of healte. No tonic better than Ferro - zone, 50c per box at all dealers. Bel more. Most of the young people of this vicinity celebrated Victoria Day in Mildmay. Mrs. Bridge, who has been visiting relatives here, left for Listowel a few days ago. Mr. Wm. Abram, who is attending Stratford Business College, spent Sat- urday with his parents here. Miss Florence Bremner, who has not been well for some time, is, we are pleased to say, almost recovered. On Wednesday morning, Mr. Chas. Adams, for many years a resident of this place, passed peacefully away. Deceased had been in poor health for several years and for some months has been unable to move without as- sistance. Mr. Adams was always an honest, hard-working man, and bore a full part in the turmoil and sorrows of life. He was long a member of the 'Orange Order, and in politics was a staunch Conservative. He is survived by three sons and four daughters, his wife having died a number of years ago, and his son, John, succumbed to an attack of fever, while serving with the Canadian Contingent in South Africa. The funeral, which took place on Thursday afternoon to Morris cemetery, was largely attended. Rev. John Radford conducted the services. da 7 , Do Your Ears Ring ? We are glad to notice that Rev. I. A. McKelvie, S. T. L., of Louisville, formerly of Wroxeter, is appreciated in his field of labor. On a recent even- ing, his congregation assembled at the parsonage and presented him and his wife with a most appreciative and complimentary address and a purse of money.

This grows steadily worse, but but can he cured by Catarrhozone. J. A. Hamilton of Greenmount, P. E. I., proved the merit of Catarrhozone and writes: --"No one could have worse catarrh than I had for years. It caused partial deafness, bad taste, up- set my stomach, made me sick all over. Catarrhozone cleared my nostrils, stopped the cough and gave me a clear feeling in my breathin organs. "I am absolutely cured." Doctors say nothing is better than Ca- tarrhozone. Try it and you'll say so too. Two sizes, 25c and $1 at all dealers. r r r Jamestown. Blyth. Norman Murch spent the holidays with friends in Stratford.
