A Pretty Wedding A large gathering of friends from far and near assembled on Wednesday evening of last week at the residence of Mr. Geo. Campbell Aberdeen, the occasion”being the marriage of his daughter Mary to Mr. John Morri- son, a young and prosperous yeoman of Glenelg. The young couple were supported during the ceremony by Mr. Peter Morrison, brother of the groom, and Miss Bella. sister of the bride. The quartette, as they Stood be- fore Rev Mr. Little, who performed the main part of the ceremony. look- ed their very best. The dresses were becoming and fashionable. both as to design and richness of material and the contrasts of light and shade bro’t out to the beer advantage “the beauty and the chivalry" of the group. Rev. Mr. Little, in his usual hap- py sryl-e, assisted by the Rev. Mr. Jansen of Durham, soon reached the “whom God has joined together let no man put asunder,” and there was showered upon the happy pair a regular flood of congratulations from every one present in turn. Among the guests present. were Messrs. Will' Angus and Will Gil- christ, and Misses Sarah and Mary Gilchrist of Bruce, Mr. and Mrs, Lamont of Saugeen, Mr. and Mrs. McKia-non of Port Elgin. Mr. and Mrs, Smith of Derby, Mr. and Mrs. Buyers of Wiiliamsford, Mr. and Mrs. MoGilvray of Elmwood, Dr. and Mrs. Smith of Doruoch. Inspect- and'Mrs.CampbelI‘ of Durham, be- sides numerous friends from Glenelg Bentinck. and other places. The marriage gif€s to bride and groom were man-y, well assorted, rich and useful. The esteem in which the young couple wa‘eheld may be judged by the long. listâ€"boo bug to insen t. Suffice to say that the kindness extended will not soon be foegotten. The supper was truly a sumptuous repast. Mr. Little and Mr. Jansen occupied seats of honor at the tables. The groomsman managed to gebbhro’ the trying ordeal of distributing the wedding cake, with the assistance of the bridesmaid, and with credit to himself. The evening xx as spent by the old er people in conveisutiou and by the younger in the usual social games of such festive gatliei lugs. At a late hour the guests “ith one accord wished the young people WI 0 enter life so propitnously. the most prosperous and happy future. So do Interest in the Shelburne forgery case is Still at high water mark. It was reported that Hamilton had made a confession but subsequently it was learned there was no truth in it.

The first application soothes the irritation and gives the little sufferer rest. (Provincial Editor’s Budget.) A word of encouragement is more valuable than gold to any society. Do not be afraid to speak it. Do you ask, how ?. Say you- enjoy the meet- ing or the singing, or the prayers were helpful or that the words spok- en, did you good, or that the spirit of the meeting: was excellent. Look for the best side of everything and applaud it. Nothing helps so much as a word of real encouragement. It works like a charm. It gives confid- ence. It binds the Socit-ty together with silken ban is and strengthens it mightily. It breaks down barriers and lets the sea of love flow in. Car- ping criticism is like a blight. It destroys all that is best and all that is beautiful. It is an evil spirit and should be carefully watched te.;.;ainst and repressed. In these cold winter days we ap- preciate warmth. I. have been learn- ing a very important i'essl n from a flower. I was expecting it to bloom but. it did not and I waited and wait- ed and waited. Why did it not bloom? It ought to. I discovered one day that it was being treated to cold water and chilled. The treat.- ment was changed and hot water given then it bloomed nicely. So it is in all our societies and churches. \Ve need a warm, kindlier atmosphel e to bloom. The great majority of our Endeav- or hos: belong to the church an.‘ there they should make their influ- ence felt by their devotion to its work, by their regular attendance upon the Sabbath services and mid- week prayer meeting, bytheir as- sistance in the Sunday School, and by their contribution to all 1"..e church schemes. Their growth in spiritual knowledme and their christ- ian activity should go together with equal step. 'lhey should seek to be examples of zeal and cons'stencv. firmly attached to their own con: reg- ation,. always in their place and asource of encouragement to tlu r pastor and of strength to their church.
