Last week Tuesday while Mr. and Mrs.
E. E. Blake were i'll attendance at the
meeting of the Epworth League, their
home was invaded by some forty or fifty
of their relatives and friends, it being the
fifth anniversary of their marriage. Upon
returning from the meeting Mr.. and Mrs
Blake were greatly surprised to find their
home in the possession of these friends,
amusing themselves with games, music
and story telling, but they took in the
situation at once and proceeded to make
it interesting for all. Mrs. Nellie Hobson
presided at the organ and with the as
sistance of a plumber of voices, rendered
some nice music, but of all the amuse-
ments Jenkins up" seemed to be the most
attractive and to create the most mirth.
Cake, ice cream and fruit were served,
and this was not the least ENJOYABLE feat
ure of the occasion. Just before midnight
when the visitors were about to depart,
a nice lounge and centre table were pre-
sented to Mr.. and Mrs. Blake as a re.
hinder of the day, Mr.. E. F. Hobson
making the presentation speech in which
he did himself proud. Mr.. Blake in behalf
of himself and wife happily responded,
thanking the many friends for the man
fest tokens of friendship, which they
would highly prize, and hoped that
many repetitions of the gathering might
be had, if not in just the same character,
and in conclusion declared that the oc-
casion had been very pleasant one to
both Mrs. Blake and himself, and hoped
it had been equally so to all. The party
then separated going to their respective
homes convinced that Mr.. and Mrs.
Blake were fully capable of entertaining
friends even at short notice.

Another important matter 10 be dis

streets of the town. Nothing Is more
cheerful than a lighted village. Nothing
in its appearance 80 improves hecharac-
ter OF a place, aud nothing Is more gloomy
than To look down upon total darkness
on the place where the village ought to
be. No investment of little money can
be made that will inspire and euliven the
business ot a village and encourage sbcia-
bility and business intercourse 50 much

should be lighted. at wha. expense, aud
with what frequency they should be cs-

ness exposes us to the charge Of being
penurious, aad exposes MS even TO ridi-
Cule. five cannot afford to light the
public streets let us extingu.sh the light
in our home, and thus have our private
and public conditions correspond.
So let each one, laying aside personal
interests, 20 to the meeting prepared to
consider this subject free from personal
interest, selfish motives and with a Just
and generous regard for the interests of
all, and dispose of the question as dis
passionately, justly and generously as
possible.

Any one who has ever had an attack
of infammatory rheumatism will rejoice
with Mr.. J. A. Stumm, 220 Boyle
Heights, Los Angeles, over his fortunate
escape from siege of that distressing
ailment. Mr.. Stumm is foreman of
Merrian's confectionery establishment.
Some months ago, on leaving the heated
work room to run across the street on an
errand, he was caught out in the rain.
The result was that when ready to go
home that night he was unable to walk,
owing to inflammatory rheumatism. He
was taken home, and on arrival was
placed in front of good fire and
thoroughly rubbed with Chamberlain's g
Pain Balm. During the evening and
night he was repeatedly bathed with this
liniment, and by morning was relieved
of all rheumatic pains. He now takes
especia pleasure in praising Chamber
lain's Pain Balm, and always keeps a
bottle of it in the house. For sale by
