We received a letter from Rev Bice. of London, containing are- mittance on subscription Amongst other things, [he says; “What is the matter with Jim Mack? I do 3 not think he devotes as much time in correSpondence as formerly I- look anxiously, or rather eagerly,§ for the Chronicle each week, as it brings news from a town and people who "used me right in every way, and which I can never for- get” We are also pleased to learn that Mr Bice has bought a nice home of his own Durham has a pool room now,‘ in the old Standard Bank premisesl Many of the citizens have express- ed opposition to such am institu- tion, and the Council fixed a 1i- oense of $200 for the first table, and $100 for each additional table. This was thought to be so Ihigh that no one would make .the ven- ture. However, We learn that the present owners of the pool-room paid the town clerk $400 in ad- vance, land have put . in three tables. We can hardly imagine the concenn will last very long, and bring in any profit to the owners. The regulations set forth in the By-larw governing such places are Quite stringent, and it is to be hoped that no infringements will bring discredit on the proprietors.

The doctor gave her several ointments to use. but none of them did any good. He also advised her to wear rubber gloves and she wore out three pairs without getting any benefit. As a last resort, I persuaded her to try “Fruit-aâ€"tives”, and the effect was marvellous.
