The evening passed very pleasantly. and
Mrs. Darlington had things to say, which,
collected, would form matter enough for q
comic almanac, and before she left she
sought an interview with Sir John.
"When you write to Queen Victoria, {"
said she, please give her my love and my
invitation to come over and see Us soon

He assured her he would do 20, and in.

CURED BY CUTICURA.

Our oldest child, now six years Of age, when an
Infant six months old was attacked with vlru-
lent, malignant skin-disease. All ordinary rc-
NEEDLES falling, we called our family physician,
who attempted 20 cure IL; but IL spread with
almost Incredible rapidity until tho lower por-
ton Of tho little fellows person from the middle
OF his back down TO his knees was one solid rash,
ugly. painful. blotched, and malicious We had
no rest ri night, no Leace by day. Finally We
were advised TO try The CUrfcUBA REMEDIES.
The effect was simply marvellous In three or
four weeks a complete cure was wrought, leav-
ing the little fellows person as white and healthy
ss though he had never been attacked. In my
opinion your valuable remedies saved his lie.
and to-day he Is n strong, healthy child, perfect
~ well, no repetition Of the disease having over
occurred. GEORGE b. SMITH,

BOY COVERED WITH sCABs.

Ny boy, aged nino years, has been Toubisd all
his life with very bad humor. which appeared
all over his body In small red biotches, with o
dry, white scab on thea. Last year he was
worse than ever, being covered with scabs from
the top Of his head 10 his feet, and continually
growing worse, although he had been treated by
two physicians. As a last resort ! determined
TO try the CUrICUKA REMEDIES. They did all
that 1 could wish. The humor rapidly disap-
pesred, leaving the skin fair and smooth, and
performing thorough cure.

Murdered at His Marriagc.

GLASGOW, Nov. S.-A wedding feast
was being held in the Italian colony in
this city last night While the feast was
progressing Lorenzo Mare Antonio made
his appearance in the room. He had ne
ceived no invitation to attend the feast and
he was elected. In a short time he re-
turned and the bridegroom and a number
of the guests attempted to again drive
him out of the room. Antonio resisted,
and during the scuf1ie that ensued he
drew a knife and plunged it into the
breast of the bridegroom, who fell to the
floor corpse. When the bride saw her
husband lying dead before her, she ut
tered wild shrek and fell upon his body
unconscious. One of the guests who had
taken part in the attempt TO eject Antonio
also received knife thrust from the
murderer. The assassin was finally over
powered after desperately seeking to
make his escape, and was handed oven to.
