Davis and family are summer home néar Ux- Macnab- Letcher e residence of Mr, and Mrs. H. Letcher was the scene of a ry pretty wedding on Thursday atternoon, July 23rd, 1908; when heir eldest daughter, Miss Laura Norine, was united in marriage to "Mt. J. Charles Macnab, of Clare: The ceremony was per- formed by Rev. B. Greatrix, of Belleville, assisted by Rev, R. T: Leitch, of Port Perry, in the pres "ence of about sixty guests. The home was tastefully decorated with ferns, -palms and sweet pea blos- soms. The bridal party stood un- der an arch of green from which was suspended a large bell of white roses. The bride, who was given) ~away by her father, was gowned in embroidered cream brussels net over taffeta, and was attended by her sister, Miss Nita Letcher, at- tired in cream silk mull, both car- Tying shower boquets of white roses aud lillies of the valley. The .groom was supported by Dr. A. C. Michell, of Toronts. 'I'he wedding march was rendered by Miss Marie "Wilson, of Fullerton, Ont. Duribg 'the signing of the register, Miss "Alice Weir sang "O Perfect Love." "The presents were botli numerous aud very beautiful. 'I'he groom's * gifts were--to the bride, a ring in which was set her birth stone, pro- tected on either side by a diamond; . to the bridesmaid, a bracelet; to the © :groomsman; a pearl scarf pin; and to Miss Wilson, a pearl brooch. after congratulations had been ex- tended and the wedding breakfast served, Mr. and Mrs. Macnab left for a tour of the lakes, including sthe Mackinaw trip. The bride wore a tailgred suit of lotus blue. Mrs. Macnab will leave a vacancy among the young people of Port Perry that will be difficult to fill as her 'pleasing manner has won for her a host of friends, and Norine as she "was familiarly called was a general favorite.

Pretty bits of scevery, comt cal snapshots, groups of friends, all may be taken easily with a kodak. When you take a summer trip, it is pleasant to bring home parts of it to show your friends. Some people have had the idea that this pastime is expensive. Of course one can throw away money in this line as in any other. If you snap at everything in sight, the cost will 'climb up. But I can let vou have a complete outfit for $3.65. This outfit will be ready to take pictures and will include films and printing | out paper sufficient to produce six negatives and give you four copies of each or twenty-four pictures in all. More than that, if you have no time or for any other reason you do not-care to develop your pictures I can do the work for you at low rates, Come and look over my stock, and see what can be done at small expense.

JONES DUNK & COMPANY. A Minister's Confession. (Continued from first page.) that I had given my solemn prom- ise not to repeat the offence !

They never had. I, too, had given it up. But not one of them favored elimination or modification. They didn't believe it : they didn't want their children to believe it. Jut there it is to-day, and every man, woman and child, as they join, sol: emnly avow that they belicve "that the wicked shall go away iuto everlasting punishment." My next cfience was charged up to the "labor gang," Fifteen huu- dred men were on strike. They were mostly Italians, and the ave- rage wage was a little over a dollar a day. They had been out three weeks, their savings were gone, and their families were starviug, The strikers put their case entirely in my hands. Armed with the viewpoint of the men, I held aud- jence with manufacturer. For four Lours we went over the case. I gave him nine points, wiped out nine demands, and held to one, and this was a slight iccrease for one- 'dollar-a-day meti.

In looking over a Lindsay paper of last week, we read that our merchant, Mr. Thompson, has sold out his business to Mr. Thos. Watson of Sonya. Mr. Thompson has built up his business as we sec it to-day from a very small begin- ning. Twenty-five years ago everything was run on a comparatively small scale, while to-day we see an up to d:teconnt y store where practically everything needed in the country can be secured. The paper goes on to say that Mi. Watson's nephew John Watson of Bethel is to have the management of his farm. The raising of Mr. John Short's barn last week was a success.
