A very pretty event was celebrated at four o'clock on Wednesday even- ing, June 5th, at the home of Mr. Jno. Craig, when Miss Emma Craig was united in marriage to Mr. Wm. Fin- lay, a prosperous young farmer of Ashfield township. At the appointed hour the bride entered the beautifully decorated parlor on the arm of her father to the strains of Lohengrin's wedding march played by Mr. Jones. The ceremony was performed by Rev. A. E. Jones of Auburn. The bride was attired in a gown of white silk, trimmed with ribbon and lace and a bridal veil ; she carried a boquet of white roses and lilies of the valley. The bridesmaid, Miss Olive Gardner, was dressed in white silk eoliene and carried a boquet of pink roses, while the groom was supported by Mr. Jas. T. Craig, brother of the bride. The droom's gifts to the bride were a iamond brooch and watch chain, to the bridesmaid a pearl and garnet ring, and to the groomsman a pearl stickpin. The guests consisted chiefly of the nearest relatives of the bride and groom. Those from a distance were :—:hisses Emma and May Craig of Detroit, Lewis Murphy from Gos- hen Valley, Parry Sound, May Gard- ner of Toronto, and Mrs. McClure of Innisfield, Alberta. " After a sump- tuous wedding repast the company was entertained by the singing of Mr. Milton Tyndall and others. The esteem in which the young couple are held was shown by the numerous and costly presents given them. They left amid the good wishes of their many friends for a trip to To- ronto, Niagara and Hamilton. The bride's going away was a gown of fashionable plaid effect in mauve and grey with hat to match. ...The... "Little Eaton" IS A NAME THAT HAS SPREAD LIKE "Wild Fire" Because of the courteous manner in which customers are treated while dealing in this store. People who have dealt here before know that they will have a large selec- tion to choose from in any of our lines. A customer said—" Your Clothing is altogether differ- ent in cit and style, than anything else in town." Well, do you know that that very idea—sentiment, if you'd rather—has helped to build up the splendid tailor- ing and haberdashery trade that was only started here in March. We make a feature of the " Something Different" and it crops up in everything we make and sell—whether it is a Necktie, pair of half Hose, or Summer Vests, selling at $1.25, $1.50, 2.00, 2.25, 2.50, 3.00, 3.50, 4.00, 4.50.

Sliedden, sr., of the 4th line, fell down cellar one day last week and broke her collar bone, As she is 82 years of age, the accident is a very serious one, The death of Mrs. Jiro. Speir, of the 4th line, took place on Friday last, at the age of 45 years. Her maiden name was Ellen Grieves, of McKillop township. The funeral took place to Brussels cemetery on Monday, and was largely attended. Deceased was a consistent member of Brussels Pres- byterian Church, and was highly esteemed wherever she was known. Three daughters and a husband are left to mourn the loss of a loving mother and kind wife, A very successful debate was held last Thursday evening in the base- ment of the Presbyterian church, un- der the auspices of the Young Men's Club. The subject was—"Resolved that Asiatic immigration is not in the interests of Canada." The affirmative was championed by W. P. Dobson and A. Monroe of Wroxeter, while Geo. Spotton and C. Workman of Wing - ham upheld the negative. The judges, Dr. Fowler, Rev. Perrin and Rev. Boyle, gave their decision in favor of the affirmative. At the Social held at the Methodist parsonage last Friday evening, under the auspices of the Ladies' Aid So- ciety, the following address was read, and a beautiful Autograph quilt was presented to Mrs. (Rev.) Osterhout Dear Mrs. Osterhout We, the members of the Ladies' Aid, with whom you have been asso- ciated as our President for the past three years, take this opportunity on the eve of your departure from among us, to present you with this Auto- graph quilt. We trust that in the future when you see the names, they will bring back to you pleasant recol- lections of the work of our society. You and your good husband are now about to take up your life's work in the Master's cause, in another part of His vineyard. That your work may be abundantly blessed and your life be a happy one, is the earnest wish of your many friends of the Wroxeter Church. Signed— Mrs. T. Walker, Sec. One of those interesting and lin- portant events of life took place at the residence of Mr. Geo. Peacock, 1st con., Morris, when his youngest daughter, Eleanor Mary,was united in marriage, on Tuesday, June 4th, to Geo. 0. Thornton, eldest son of Mr. Nelson Thornton, Morris. Precisely at 5 o'clock the bride and groom enter- ed the parlor during the playing of the wedding march by Mrs. Jas. Pea- cock, sister-in-law to the bride. The marriage ceremony was performed by the Rev. Geo. Baker in the presence of a large number of guests, relatives and friends of the contracting parties. The bride was becomingly gowned in white and carried a boquet of white flowers, and wore white flowers in her hair. After the usual congratulations and the signing of the register they all sat down to a sumptuous repast. The presents to the bride were beauti- ful and numerous. The hours of the evening were spent in a social manner with music and conversation. Mr. and Mrs. Thornton will reside on the boundary in Morris, on the farm ad- joining that of the groom's father. We wish them happiness and every blessing of prosperity. Blyth. Rev. Mr. Holmes of Dorchester was renewing old acquaintances here on his return from Conference. Mrs. Johnston and daughter of Michigan are visitors at the home of the former's brother, Joseph Stothers. The I. 0. 0. F. elected the following officers for the year : N. G.—Harry Baines ; V. G.—A. Robinson ; R. S.— Frank Anderson ; F. S.—G. E. Mc- Taggart ; Treasurer—Jas. Cott ; rep- resentative to Grand Lodge—S. Pop- plestone ; delegates to district meet- ing—J. S. Golden, Jas. Cott. A very pleasing event took place at the home of Mr. Thos. Code, on Tues- day, June 11th, at high noon, when Miss Maud became the bride of Mr. Alex. Porterfield of Marnoch, Clerk of East Wawanosh. Rev. W. Hartley officiated, and after partaking of a dainty luncheon the bride and groom left on the afternoon train for Buffalo, Niagara, Toronto and other parts. Their many friends join in wishing them a long and happy married life. Grey. Mr. Emerson Vipond of Donegal re- newed old friends on the 4th con. last Sunday. Mr. John McAllister left on Friday for an extended visit to St. Pauls and the West. Mr. and Mrs. Robt. McAllister of Cockburn Island are welcome visitor's in this locality. Miss Annie Bryans spent Sunday with her friend, Miss Maggie Mc- Arter, of Brussels. Miss Ethel Musgrove of Fordwich spent a few days at the home of her uncle, Mr. Robt. Pearson. The lecture that had been announced for the 11th in Roe's church has been postponed, as the pastor, Rev. Arm- strong, could not be present. The date now will be the 18th. Mr. Ben Jackson of Ethel took charge of the service in Roe's church last Sabbath morning, owing to the pastor being unexpectedly called to the sick bedside of his wife hi Wind- sor. We are sorry that Mrs. Geo. John- ston's condition of health does not im- prove as quickly as her many friends would like to see, after having a severe attack of pleurisy again last Week. We sincerely hope she will soon be convalescent. Relmore, Mr, Lowry is improving the appear- ance of his home by having it painted.

On the afternoon of Friday, June 28th, Mr. E. F. Collins, our teacher, intends having some amusements for his pupils. It is expected that games and foot races will form part of the program. A Question Often Asked. Why so many people feel worse after taking pills than before ? Trouble is that drastic pills are used, No remedial action is obtained, the bowels are irritated and dreadful constipation follows. In using Dr. Hamilton's Pills you are scarcely conscious of having taken medicine. Although very mild, Dr. Hamilton's Pills do regulate the bowels, stimulate normal action of the glands, and create neither nausea, griping or violent action. Positively guaranteed for biliousness, indiges- tion, stomach, liver and kidney ills. For a safe family pill rely on Dr. Hamilton's, 25 cents per box at all dealers. Howick. To all appearance the hay crop in many parts will be total failure, and if the other crops are likewise, we will he able to purchase any amount of cat- tle for a mere trifle. We trust how- ever, that oats and barley will be much better than we at present anti- cipate. Sad indeed, it is to record the visit of death once more to the home of Mr. Cooper, of the second line. It is only two months since the home lost an amiable daughter. Now Mrs. Cooper has joined the ranks of the redeemed. She was a worthy woman, and highly esteemed. The death of another of the highly respected residents of the township in the person of Alex. Laird, aged 67 years, took place on Thursday, May 30th. Deceased had only been ill for a short time and all that medical at- tendance could do was done for him, but it was of no avail. He leaves a sorrowing widow, one daughter and son to mourn his loss. Mr. Laird was an old settler and deservedly popular with everyone, as he was a quiet, up- right gentleman. An affection of the heart was the ultimate cause of his death. The annual report of the Methodist Church, Blyth, is in many respects very encouraging. The membership roll has been increased by about forty, notwithstanding a number of deaths and many removals to the Northwest and other places. Special services were conducted in the spring, when nearly one hundred were converted to God, many of whom have united with the Church, while some have united with sister Churches, beside a Catechumen class of some thirty mem- bers. The pastor's salary has been increased by fifty dollars, and a purse of fifty dollars in gold was presented to him at the close of the special ser- vices. Very marked advance has been made in the missionary givings of the circuit during the past two years ; last year was from $188 to $238, and this year to $321 or 70% increase in the two years. The Sunday School and Epworth League are in a very flourishing condition and under able officers and teachers doing aggressive work for the Church. The pastor, Rev. S. Anderson, has accepted a unanimous invitation to remain for a third year. Salem. Norman Gauld of London is at pres- ent visiting his cousin, Win, Mines. Wm. Mines had the misfortune of losing one of his fi ne horses es on Sun- day.. y Mrs. McMichael, sen„of1ro Wroxeter, has coma to reside with her daughter, Mrs. D. Weir.

Kind of fierce to be tied up in a knot at midnight with cramps. Keep Ner- viline handy. Ten dropsquiets cramps instantly. Used occasionally. Nerviline prevents this trouble entire- ly. From Stratford, Ont., Wm. Dee writes : "Nothing I know of will give such quick relief to cramps, colic or pain in the stomach as Nerviline. If you feel squeamish or sick, just ten drops of Nerviline in water and you're well next minute." Think of the pro- tection and comfort contained in. a 25c bottle of Nerviline, and get it to- day.
