The Feminine Side The other day t!io announcement was inadu that a daily paper, devuted solely to the interesrs of women had made its appearance in London, Eng. This is a fair indication of the development which has been taking place in daily journalism the World over. 'I'ho Turonto News is one of tho papers which looks well to the interests of women. Each day a chapter of an absorbing; serial story appears, as well as a c duuin of interestini; chat for the homo. In tho Saturday News gener-, ous space is allotted to the wnmen's dopartmont, conducted by Jean Bluwetr, wlio!-e name is familiar in thi UKimds of Canadian homes. In addition, a coluain of seasonable recipes is given, and a whole page is devoted to a descnptioa of the latest fashions â€" dainiy creations which touch the feminine hearc â€" with appropriate illustrations. Events in the musical and dramatic world are interest- ingly written a_bout, and the latest books and magazines are reviewed. Every Saturday number of The News is of ab-sorbing interest to every Canadian woman. Nor i.s Tho News a paper for wotnen alone. The husband and brother will find iii its columns a terse but compre- hensive record of the day's events, with well conducted sporting, commercial and financial departments, Tho price of The News is interesting, too â€" si. 00 a year by mail â€" which is about the value of the Sunday edition. If you would. like to see The Nows, drop a card to Toront* and ask for a aamplo copy and particulars of their generous clubbing wlnimmititigtt^t^mor, the like of which has never heretufure been mado by any Canadian paper. .\s a result of neijotiatious with tho Montreal Weekly Herald, and at considerable expense, an arrangement has beeu arrived at whereby it will bo possible, for tho coming year,to offer tho two papers at the extraordinary low price of one dollar. When it is re- membered that the regular subscription price of each paper is one dollar per year, it will be easy to appreciate the sacritices which have had to mado by each pub- lisher in order to make a joint rate of one dolhr. The price of the two papers will be simply cut in two. As a result,wc ex- pect to increase largely the circulation of Tho Advance,and it is this expectation which has led us to make this unprece- dented offer. As will be readily under- stood the offar is open only to those pay- ing in advance. Wo have m."»de exclusive arrangements with the publishers of The Herald, and no similar offer can bo made by any other journal in this district. The arrangemout is to continue for at least two years. -x H » n -* Alton-Wilcox A wedding of more than ordinary in- terest took place on Wednesday of last week, 25th inst., at the residencpof Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Wflcox, back line west, when their second daughter, Miss Ella, was united in marriage to Mr. George Alton of Markdale. The ceremony was performed by Rev. J.S. Ivison Wilson, at five p. m., in the presence of about 75 guests. As the bridal party entered the parlor the wedding march was played by Miss E. Wilson of Swinton Park. Miss Annie Wilcox acted as the bride's aasiv tant and Mr. Arthur Alton stood by the groom in his tryina; ordeal. The pretty little bride looked exceedingly handsome in a dress of while organdy, trimmed with applique and oriental lace, and carried a flower bouquet of white roses and maiden- hair fern. The bridesmaid wore a dress of the same material with a touch of blue, and also carried a bouquet of piuk car- nations and ferns. After the ceremony the guests partook of a generous and ele- gant wedding dinner. The weddiug presents were extraordinarily fine and numerous. The groom'« present to the bride was a pearl sunburst and to the bridesmaid a handsome gold croscont. The happy couple left by Ihe following morning .<< train for Toronto, and other points to spend the honeymoon. Upon return they will take up their abode in Markdale.

'very sad fatal accident happened on ^farin of Mr. Robert McCluug, west of iViUiamford last week, when Miss Mc- Clung, who lived alone in a house on the farm, was accidentidly burned so badly that she died from the effects. It would appear that she had been sitting beside the stove and fallen asleep, when her clothes caught tire from a spark and upon waking sbo had put ont tho tiro and changed her clothes but given no alarm. When visited by Mrs. McClung sho was found to be terribly burned and died shortly afterwards. Mr. McClung was sick in bed at the time. â€" Chatsworth News.
