weather conditions perfect.
A splendid concert, given under the
direction of Louis Dammaseh, in the
Seaside pavilion, Saturday night, was
followed by a ball, which held the boards
until the small hours of the morning.
The clam-bake given in the grove in
front of Locksley ball Sunday night was
one of the most successful entertain
ment of this kind that has been given in
some time. The grove was electric light
ed and was iWorated with Arion flags
and bunting and covers were laid for 150
on the hti. heavily-laden table, which
siw'ciud froivi one end of the grove to
the other. The menu was a very elabo
rate one, and too much cannot be aid in
praise of thi excellent catering, for which
51r. Butterworth is responsible. There
was-a most acceptable absence of long
waits between courses, and every dish of
the menu was voted delicious. A large
part of the Saturday night concert pro
gram was repeated, ant ? huge bonfire,
which was burning during the banquet,
was the center of the fireworks, which
attracted very much admiration. After
the festivities the crowd which had gath
ered dispersed during the singing of a
farewell song.

relief must be obtained. There is no
necessity of incurring the expense of a
physician's services in such cases if

been known to fail, even in the most
severe and dangerous cases and no fam
ily should be without it. For sale by

completing the taking of the right of

Often n person is sized up by his appear
ance ; by the tone that surrounds him. And
more often a business house is sized up by
tho stationary it uses. A cheap letter
head or a poor bill head gives a mighty
poor first impression and makes business
harder to transact. Good printing costs no
more than poor printing. Tho first im
pression is half tho battle in business..
You wouldn't employ a "sloppy" sales
man; why put up with "sloppy" station

importance of your business. Let us do
your printing and help you to make that
