a very pretty wedding occurred at the
Catholic church here last week when
Miss Melvina Narcotic was married to
Philip Benoit. Both are we'll known ard
popular young people of Olga, the bride
being the second daughter of Annie Mar
cote, an old pioneer and one of the well
to do farmers of this place. The groom
is the second oldest son of Phllibert
Benoit, who although only a recent ar
rival, now owns over a section of land
and is one Of our most prosperous far
mers. The young couple have a bright
future before them and we join with their
many friends in wishing that it may be
full of happiness for them.
The position of postmaster has its

the edges of a letter have become frayed

torn In its passage through themails, he
thinks the postmaster has tempered with

BABY'S SCALP CRUSTED

Our little daughter, when three
months old, began to break out on the
head and we had the best doctors to
treat her, but they did not do her any
good. They said she had eczema. Her
scalp was solid scale all over. The
burning and itching was so severe that
she could not rest, day or night. We
had about given up all hopes when we
read of the Cuticura Remedies. We at
once got cake of Cuticura Soap, a
box of Cuticura Ointment and one bot
tie OF Cuticura Resolvent, and fol-
lowed directions carefully. After the
first dose Of the Cuticura Resolvent,
we used the Cuticura Soap freely and
applied the Cuticura Ointment. Then
she began to improve rapidly and in
two weeks the scale came of her
head and new hair began to grow. In
a very short time she was well. She is
now sixteen years of age and pic
ture Of health. We used the Cuti-
cura Remedies about five weeks, reg,
ularly, and then we could not tell she
had been affected by the disease. We
used no other treatment after we
found out what the Cuticura Remedies
would do for her. j. Fish and Ella M.

Chicago.-No theory yet advanced

the Antarctic ice fields, only to re-

his whole life in the repetition of

The golden plover is one of the
most remarkable travellers in the bird
kingdom. The plover passes north
ward in May to its breeding site
around the north pole. The eggs are
laid on a cake of ice in June and six
weeks later the old bird and the
chicks start south. They loiter along
slowly until they reach Labrador,
where they make a stand for some
weeks feasting on crow berries and
becoming very fat. Suddenly all the
plovers in Labrador rise as by signal
