Blow, blow, DloWl CneW, cneWi cneW!
The blow in this connection has no refer
ence to the bow that chsracterizes the speech
of the average citizens, nor does the chew
refer to anything palatable. Blow. In this
instance is indicative of what is soon to be
the ruling factor in the glass houses now
idle. You might say there has been great
deal of blow about glass of late, but was OF
kind that didn't produce the original ar
tiele, and was q poor thing to Gil orders
With. The blow to be INDUCED in shortly
will be Of that sort that will ell the blowers
with what they desire and will also make
the average manufacturer happy and he
will get If ready for his customers. And
now we will use the chew, chew,

the engine will do when it gets loaded down

character to one side let US enter into the

Society Last Week.
One month of fall has nearly passed on
its Journey after August, the last OF the
summer months, and still the gay and fes-
tive who long for parties and balls are not
experiencing any events of an extraordinary
character. Indeed, it would seem as if the
.esson for Cupid was at hand, Judging from
be number of marriages that have been
chronicled as taking place in this city and
township. during the past two or three
weeks. And it is said that more affairs OF
this character will soon mature, as some OF
the beaux and bellies who had intended ere
this to leave the state of single blessedness,
but who were deferred by the severe pres
sure of the times, will now reconsider their
former determination and hunt the minis.

There were several pleasant parties last

in surprise on Wednes-

reported on Miss Salina Hodgins. On FRI

James Dubois and Young BlankleY. Those
who dote on roller skating had two nights
of exercise in that art at the Niagara rink
last week. The craze in this line is not
dead By any means, and good business Ia
predicted, beginning with next month. 1t is
with feeling Of regret we are nearing the
period when all outdoor enjoyments must
cease. The county fair, the delightful coon
hunt and the risky squirrel chase have
about run their days for this year, but we
will live in hope for plenty Of fun in other
ways during the winter.
Vote as You Pray.
Rev. George 81. Yibbert made several
able temperance speeches during his visit
in this city. His last discourse was on
Prohibition and the Third Party" The
positions of the two prominent political
parties was plainly defined aud the weak
points pointed out. The Democrati0parIy
has come out openly for license. while the
Grand Old Party" occupied the top rail
on the fence ready at any moment to catch
on to something that wild make votes. The
speaker spoke of England, where license
law has been in force over 400 years. Go
into the city of London and examine its
workings. Under the law of license its peo-
pie have become the greatest slaves to
liquor Of any city on the face of the earth.
