Down in Stayner there is a washec- washee almond-eyed celestial named Charlie Yem.

Some of our subscribers would notice that they were a little late in getting tlieir copy of Tlie Advance last wetk and would wonder what could be the causn thereof, as it was scmething very unusual indeed. Well, here is the explanation : After getting the first copy ofl and mak- ing soroo corrections, the machine w-is started again without properly locking the forms on the press, with th» result that one page slid off to the floor aud piled itstlf up into a shapeless m.ass. This represented at least a week's work for one map to replace it in the cases, but owing to the kindness cf Bro. Tucker of the Markdalu Staudnrd, who came to the rescue with his type-setting machine, the paper was printed the same evening and was sent out Tlvursday instead of \Vediies<lay. The wreck was nne of the worst we have known and there are still pounds of printers' " pi " lying arouud awaiting someb'idy's leisure to put it back where it belongs. The editor-in- chief was solely to blame in th s instance and now considers himself a full-tlediied pressman, having learned his little lesten. No Paper Next Week In confortnity with the usual cus- loni of tb-oppiiig one i.ssue in the year, there will l«i no Advance is.sued next week. The office will be open a.s usual, however. In a private note from Rev. Dr. Cald- well, who is stationed at Owen Sound North (Brookholm Ward), we learn that he purpo.ses taking a trip this fall as far west as Vancouver, to le»ve about Sept. 30. Mrs. Caldwell will aUo vi.sit friends in Saskatchhewau. Spe iking of local option, he says: "Our local option must be a sucite.<8, for I havo seen only one man the worse of lii^uor, aud am much of the lime on the street." Mr. R. T. ftlcLend of Oregon, who is vi.iiting his brother, A. D. . of Priceville, gave Tlie Advance a welcome half hour's chat on Tuesday. It is over fifteen years since he went west and this is his first trip east since that time. Blr. BIcLeod is in a wlieat growini? sectiou of Oregon, where he says they never havo a failure He does not have to depend on irriga- tion for his crops, either. There are a great many Canadians in the state of Oregon, and all appear to be diing well. There was a noise as of many battles down in the valley en Saturday kst, and people for miles around wondered what the thundering noise was about. The cause theriiof was as follows : Mr. John Weber was the owner of about e'ghteen pounds of dynamite which ho had stored in an old out building for the past couple of years. The family did not feel com- fortable with so much explosive lying about and to allay their fears he decidad to get rid of it. It was carried out and have decided to hold a big fair, opening l''""'^ "" '^ '"'"S^ ^'^n^' " '"«« attached. on October 11 and laktiug a week. Dr. Sproule, M. P., will bo asked to open it. It is also likely that Dr. Sproule will be invited to address ih while at St. John. and those who did not heir the explosion that followed can guess the rest.

Change of Date The Directors nf Ariemesia Asjricultu- ral Society have found it necessary to change the date of their fall fair and bold it a week earlier than was announced. The correct d.ites will bo Septemner 30 and October 1. The next time that Peter Toews of Winnipeg enters a barber's chair he will make certain that ho won't take a nap. He wandered into the toneorial parlors of a Leonard VioK-te reofutly. Wheu ho came to he had tho following little hill presented to him : Haircut, 25c ; shave, loo ; singe, 25c ; elertric shamj;oo, 50c ; scalp nv-issage, 50c ; face massage, 3.5c ; eyebrows dyed, 75o ; moustauho dyed, $1 ; tot.il, 83 75. To this was added $1 for good measure. Toews looked at him- self in the gla.ss. It was not the same Peter Toews he knew before his sleep in the barber's chair. Ho pinched himself to be sure he was not still .slet-ping. There was an aiterc ition which wound up in the police court. Magiitnito Daly was called upon to adjudicate as to the bill. Peter seriously considered bringing in a ch irge of assault when he viewed h:s countenance, but was finally appeased by having his bill cut down to 40 cent>>, which he duly paid.
