Prmfitahle Painting. DURHAM, JUNE 14, 1906. DURHAM CHRONICLE Peamy’s Mixed Paint Owing to the rush we had last week many items of interest were omitted and some items recorded were only partly told. Our introduction to the Chronicle Fund was not complete. The names of town contributors were‘ given in a lump sum under the names of the respective collectors, Mr. J. J. Smith, Mr. Cliff Elvidge and Mr. Thos. Allan. Mr. A. YV. H. Lauder also took an active part in the collecting campaign. Mr. “'m. Johnston can- vassed the Independent Order of For- esters “ho contributed very nicely. the amount collected leirg about $40 as shown in last week's report. Mr. Laidlaw “as a worker amongst the Oddfellovrs. to which we belong, and received nearly $120. The lists from the town collectors have not been handed in to us and hence are not published in detail. Since last we went to press the following contri- hutors have been added: Total amount reported.... '19 25 Geo. McDonald, Durham. . 50 'Wm. Ritchie. Edge Hill. .. l 00 D.

In one of our Toronto dailies we read of many recent wrecks to fishing ves- sels, especially those sailing from.’ Grimsby. The large percentage of accidents, serious and otherwise, caused the underwriters toinvestigate the matter, with the result that they discovered the knives carried by the men magnetic and positively danger- . gfito navigationJ, as: - A press representative secured one! of the knives on Friday last, and took ‘ ,it with him to the works of a well- known Grimsby adjuster. ”When he stood near the binnacle with the knife in his pocket, the needle performed all manner of weird gyrations, and the adjustor declared the knives were cer- tainly dangerous. Orders have been issued by; the Grimsby skippers, and seamen are prohibited to enter the bridge-room with knives in their possession. Not only knivesare dangerous, but my other little things a person DANGEROUS T0 NAVIGATION. W. IRWIN. Editor and Proprietor. When you cover a house with scout of good paint it is not an expenseâ€"it is an invest- ment. It pays dividends in the increased life of the structure. The amount of the dividend paid depends upon what brand of point you use. To secure the largest profit you muSt use It costs no more per gallon than some brands, but costs less than any by the square yard of surface covered and is the most profitable paint of all because it lasts longer than the others.

One night about eleven o’clock (six bells) those who were not on watch were awakened by being thrown uncerimoniously out of their bunks onto the deck. The en- gineers were bufieted around the en- gine room. and passengers hurled out of their berths. We had struck a rock. “'ith one or two lurches, the old boat slid off, and calmly went on her way and as the engineers had not yet recovered their equilibrium sum- ciently to stop the engines, we steamed ahead at our regular speed. about The ship, whose name we won’t mention, was bound for Manila via the Bernardino straits. Everything was shipshape and in order, and our course ahead at our regular speed, about thirteen knots. Divers sent down in Manila reported the whole forward part of the hull gone except the false bottom, the keel damaged and twenty-five feet missing, and the rolling chalks ruined. Now. what do you think caused the wreck ? Nobody knew at the time, but it afterwards developed that some lady passengers were on the bridge at the time of the accident, and were standing near the wheel house. The rest was easy. The steel contained in their corsets was affecting the needle, and the quartermaster unknowingly ran on a rock he knew the position of as well as he knew his own ship. The Oddfellows of Grey Lodge No. 169 attended Trinity Church in a. body last Sunday afternoon. The proces- sion of about fifty members was led by the hand and on entering the church the choir started up that grand old hymn “Onward Christian Soldiers” which was rendered in very fine form. The church services were conducted in the usual manner and all responses were heartily made by the members of the congregation, which made the whole service not only beautiful but impressive. The lessons read by the Rector were exceedingly appropriate, the first be- ing the story of Jonathan and David as recorded in the 20th chapter of 1st Samuel. The New Testament Lesson was the story of the good Samaritan. Before entering on his sermon prop- per the Rector, Rev. A. A. Bice, ex- pressed it as a. delight and an honor to he called upon to add1ess a society whose foundation principles were has- ed on Love and Christianity as port- rayed in the two chapters just read. The sermon itself was most appropri- ate to the occasion and was filled from first to last with the cardinal princi- . ples of Oddfellowship. It is needless to say that ev ery member present was delighted with the address and the : Lodge as a whole. will be highly 1m- } proved if they act on the sound ad- vice of the Rector. Every one was pleased with the service and the Lodge took their earliest opportunity in giv- . ing expression to their appreciation. The services rendered by the band were much enjoyed and a resolution was passed on Monday night to give them a vote of thanks and a cheque for ten dollars. They offered their services free, but the Society felt that time, music and energy cannot be pro- duced for nothing and that their ser- vices should be rewarded in some tan- gible way. It is with feelings of deep gratitude I tender my sincere thanks to the members of the Independent Order of Oddfellows, the Canadian Order of Foresters, and the citizens of Dur- ham and surrounding country gen- erally for their kind sympathy and substantial assistance during the short illness of my late husband. I beg respectfully to tender my sin- cere thanks to the residents of Dur- ham and \icinity for the very kind way in which they ministered to my wants during the illness and death of my beloved wife.

If scase of cramps or stomach ache turns up, Nerviline 'is ever ready. We use Nerviline for neuralgis, rheumatism and all kinds of aches and pains; it’s as good es any doctor.” The great Canadian remedy for the past fifty years has been Polson’s Nervilineâ€"nothing better made.
