As we intimated in our last a very interesting event occurred at the home of Mrs Dennett last Wednes- day at mid-day. when her eldest 6 daughter, Belinda. was married to l Mr. George Walker, of North Dakota. i The ceremony was performed by Rev. iColling, of Durham, aSsisted by Rev. vStevenson of Varney. A brother of ithe groom and Miss Mary Dennett L figured in the affair as honored couple gon the left and right of the couple. ’An excellent wedding dinner was Qpartaken of by the company which ? consisted of near relatives of the con- Etracting parties among whom were 3 .\lr. Elijah Dennet and family. of jMarkdale, Mr. and Mrs. Thompson. gof Hamilton, and Mr. Walker’s E friends. of Paisley. For want of in- iformation we cannot describe the dress or appearance of the couple at l the time. but as they are both good tlooking we presume they would re- z_ main so even through so trying an or- ;deal. They spent the remainder of éthe week in Paisley and took the E Monday morning train for their new i home in Dakota where. , wish them la long life of happini; Mr. and ' Mrs. Calder, of Dunha were in at- een valued i tendance.

Witching to most men and W111 shake the most sedate out of their thoughts. A young man going out to market with a large basket of eggs should n0t take up a charming lady on the road. One of our young men will at least admit that it cost htm a few dozen eggs doing so. he drove at such a reckless pace. The Varney man thinks the hotel as needless as a fifth wheel to a. wagon, and it is no doubt to him as he has a very cosey home close by and he should n0t bother much with any- thing of so little use, neither should ; he forgot the circumstances when itl was the whole caravan, in fact the ark for himself and household. Con- ditions remain the same yet and the climate as severe as it has ever been. Many a traveller steps 03 the train under similar circumstances to what he did some time ago with his family when the short distance to the hotel seemed quite far enough without looking ound for private accommo- datiofieven for a private entrance to th . avern for women and children but like other sensible people took? the shortest and best beaten road to shelter and enjoyed the h03pitality of mine host Crawford, until he could be conveyed to his friends two and a f miles away. The English em- igrant who landed in Varney or- the dest night laSt winter found that elter was hard to procure until he found the hotel. Of course Varney- ‘ites argue they were not responsible for such a class as they were brought out by the Government and that the Government should look alter them. Q The Government certainly have many :classes of travellers to think about and should not ‘ be too ready to do away with any public accommodation until some substitute has been put in iits place. Possibly the kind of trav- ellers who would suffer most are the many agents sent out by the many exxsting concerns. Ma‘ny people do ' not believe in the schemes they ad- vocate and think they are doing the :right thing when they are refusing them food or shelter. we have person- .' aiiy known set'eral who were ordered to either the Varney of Holstein hotel . at dark on the severest nights even when they were ofiering to pay in advance mucn more than the price of lodging rather than face the storm. ; Miss Jane Ritchie.

In Number of Teachers Passed and Lays Claim for New Normal. At the request of A. G. MacKay. in support of his argument to have one of the proposed normal schools locat ed in Owen Sou nd. a statement giving the number of teachers certificates granted at the various Collegiate In- stitutes. was presented in the Legis- lature last week. The returns are for the last six years and give the Owen Sound Collegiate Institute first place with a tOtal of 435 teachers passed. Hamilton comes second with a total of 412 and London third with 359.. These three schools are in a class by themselves, as will be seen by a glance at the torals published herewith. Often causes a good deal of trouble. The best cure is a prompt application of Nerviline which instantly stops the pain. prevents swelling, removes all blackness and discoloration. Ner- viline is antisepticâ€"prevents blood poisoning. - No liniment so strong, so penetrating, so swift to deStroy pain. You miss a lot of comfort by not using Polson’s Nerviline. For nearly filty years it has been the standard family liniment of Canada. Most housewives judge the purity of a flour by its whiteness. White somehow signifies purity. But while pure flours are always white, white flours are not always pure. Royal Household Flour is the whitest flour that is milled. It is also the purest. You may think the flour you are using is about as white as flour can be. Yet if you place it beside Royal Household Flour it will look yellow by com- parison. Ask your grocer for Royal Household, and make sure that he understands that you mean it. ogilvie Flour Mills ‘30., 11d. “Ogilvie’s Book for 8.

DURHAM CHRONICLE Make One, and He Will Repay You W'lth Plenty of Fun. Mr. Door Jack is not a practical jok- er, although he has a very sly little way of bobbing right up in your very face when you least expect it. He is so easily made and so easily operated that children should make friends with him immediately and learn the many. comical gyrations he is subject to when he is out on one of his tantrums. In the first place. get a stout cigar box and arrange its lid so that by pull- ing a bent pin it will fly open and un- latch very easily. Next procure a large spring. A bed spring or one made of coiled wire will THE SUBPBISING DOOR JACK. answer the purpose. One end of this should be fastened securely to the bot- tom of the cigar box and the frameâ€" work of wire covered over with bril- liantly colored silk. Now Mr. Door Jack needs a head, doesn’t he? And it remains for you to decide what proportion of beauty he is to secure. This head may be formed of cardboard, with dashing horsehair whiskers and a scrap hag Wig. At all events, make it as funny and as gro- tesque as you can. The chances are that the less you know about art the funnier the face will be. Across the bottom of the doorway where Jack is to ma ' his, initial per- formance place a“ +1: about six inches wide. The Door Jack goes on the other side of it. The Jack is press- ed snugly into the box, the lid closed with the bent pin over a catch, and a string in your hands fastened to the pin gives you perfect control of the funny fellow’s future destiny. The Vanishing Dime and How It II Made to Disappear. This is a clever trick and may be done with good effect in the following manner: Previously stick a small piece of white wax on the nail of yourmid- dle finger, lay a dime on the palm of your hand and state to the company that you will make it vanish at the word of command, at the same time observing that many persons perform the feat by letting the dime fall into their sleeves, but to convince them that you have not recourse to any such de- ception turn up your cuffs. Then close your hand. and by bringing the waxed nail in contact with the dime it will firmly adhere to it. Then blow upon your hand and cry “Begone!” and, sud- denly opening it and extending your palm. you show that the dime has van- ished. Care must be taken to remove the wax from the dime before restor- ing it to the owner if it should have been borrowed from some one in the company. As sister or Tom or any other person wanders into the houseâ€"snap goes the string. and up bobs the wise Door Jack in his flaring red jacket. Just you try it. To Make a Knife Leap Out of a Pot. Have a potful of water standing on the table; then take a piece of whale- hone about three inches long; let it be pretty stiff, as it will spring the bet- ter; take also a new stiff card and fold it down the middle lengthwise, cut a hole through both folds at each end half an inch or more from the ends. put one end of the whalebone in at one end of the card, bend it like a bow, put the other end of the whalebone into the other end of the card. set this in a pot two or more inches deep in the water, then place the handle of your knife up- on the uppermost part of the whale- hone. with the point upward. Use some words of magic. as “Presto vet!” or “Omporte!” and the knife will leap out of the pot. His Heroes. In his home at Mount Vernon George Washington had .placed six busts which may be taken as an indication of the great man’s choice of heroes. The busts were those of Alexander the Great, Julius Caesar, Charles XII. of Sweden. King Frederick of Prussia, Prince Eugene and the Duke of Marl- borough. Miss Dorothy’s Dolly.
