We wish that we might have
the pleasure of showing our new
Shoes to every Man and Woman
in town.
If we could do this, and have
an opportunity to explain a]1 the
good points, wherein our Shoes
are so different from the ordinary
Shoes, we would simply get a
corner on the Shoe trade.
And still we ask no more
for our excellent Shoes than some
stores ask for the other kind.
We are as ready to show our

ANNA AND EDNA COOKI;.
In speaking of the exquisite and al-
together inimitable bare back riding
of the Cooke Sisters, Anna and Edna,
there is no language too strong to pro-
claim their merits nor is it too much
to aver that they are beyond all ques-
tion, the most daring, the most ac-
complished, and in every way the
n Ct finished equestriennes the world
ha •, ever produced. Their riding is a
revelation and a poem. Beautiful and
as graceful as a fawn, Anna and Edna
accomplish on their flying coursers
numberless feats none else dared. at-
tempt, and backward and forward
somersaults are to them the merest
bagatelle. There are many equestri-
ennes in the profession, but there is
none who can compare with Anna
and Edna Cooke, who are with the
Lemon Bros. Show which will exhibit
at Wingham, May 10th.

A FISH STORY.—On Tuesday even-

lbs. He is supposed to have come
down the river from the Kinloss lakes.

Turnberry.
It is busy times with the farmers
these days, still those weddings have
to be attended to. So when Thomas
Mundell, a promising young farmer of
the 1st line of Culross, thought it time
to take unto himself a helpmate, he
proposed and was accepted by Miss
Minnie Campbell of Turnberry. Quite
a number of the friends and relatives
assembled at the residence of the
bride's brother, W. J. Campbell (Hut-
ton farm) on the evening of Wednes-
clay, 26th April. Shortly after 5 p. m.,
Master Willie Austin as page, eon -
ducted the groom to a position under
an arch of evergreens ; the bride, at-
tired in a costume of cream cashmere,
then appeared leaning on her father's
arm and attended by little Mary Aus-
tin as flower girl, took her place be-
side the groom, while Master Willie
F. Linklater played a wedding march.
Rev. Dr. Murray of Kincardine then
pronounced the magic words marking
thein man and wife; Dr. Murray (by
the way) hard performed the same
ceremony 32 years ago for the bride's
parents in the village of Woodville,
Ont. Congratulations over, the guests
repaired to the dining xoom to attack
the wedding dinner, which must have
been more than an ordinary one, as it
put them in such good htilnor that
qnite a time was occupied in speech-
making and expressing kind wishes
for the newly married couple. A not-
ed feature of the presents given was
that they partook more of the useful
than the ornamental, a fact much to
he appreciated by a young couple try-
ing the stern realities of housekeeping
aniki rural surroundings.

Chills Prove Fatal !
If warmth and circulation are not
promptly restored, chills result in
fatal pneumonia. This necessitates
keeping Nerviline on hand. Taken in
hot water it breaks up a chill in two
minutes. By rubbing freely over
throat and chest it prevents colds.
No liniment so strong, so penetrating,
so swift to kill pain and inflammation.
Nearly fifty years' record has proved
the value of Poison's Nerviline, You
