Habvestimq, threshing and picnics are the order of the day in this vicinity. The weather has been very favorable for windin? up harvesting operations. Fbamk Buoem left here on Tuesday morning last for Durham to attend the Model School. Mr. Maohj,, a student of Enox College, Toronto, preached two very instructive sermons last Sunday m the Presbyterian church. Look out for J. E. Richard's adyertise- ment in the Standabd when he returns from Toronto with his immense t^tock of new goods. Messss. McDonald Boyd, of Glenelg, have purchased a boss threshing ma- chine and are able and willing to thresh anything in the grain line. Try 'em. A.

On Tuesday morning last a brakeman Bt the departure of Miss McNea and Miss Whitby, the choir of the Methodist church loses two of its best singers but we fancy the leader need not be at a loss to fill the vacancies. There is at least one female voice in the congrega* tion with power enough to drive a wind- mill, expression and endurance to match. We suggest an addition to the' choir. Mb. J. £. BicHABDS, of Bocklyn, passed through on Tuesday with a shipment of 8,400 ns. of butter. John is an enter- prising merchant, and as we understand be is in the matrimonial market, some of our fascinating jronng ladies might do worse than try to win the Bocklyn merchant from the bonds of bachelor- hood to the glorious freedom of married life. A young man in Marianna, Floriday, dreamed the other night of making a balloon ascension and making his descent by means of a parachute. He thought he threw every garment overboard, not even retaining his gauze shirt, before making his descent. Imagme his dis- gust when he woke, standing np in bed holding to an oped umbrella with a grip that made his hands ache. He says he lost no time hunting for his lost garments. Not MANi- LEFT. â€" Another of the pio- on the way -freight fell off the yan in a neers of this distriot has joined the great majority in the person of Mr. Wm. Miller, brother of Mr. Isaac Miller of Glenelg. Mr. Miller was well known and respected, being one of the first and shoe maker, is receiying orders for settlers of this locality. He passed away his make of boots from foreign countries. ^^ Sunday last at Owen Sound, where He is in receipt this week of an order for ^f ^*^ '^en living for some years with a pair of sewed boots from Calgaiy. \^ nephew, Mr. John Miller, Goyemor jail. He had reached the ripe fit at Markdale station and cut his fore head and face. Dr. Sproule was sam' moned and dressed his wounds. Mb. S. Halbert, our esteemed boot BeifimT We forgot last week to say that we were in error in stating the previous week that the proceeds of the Presby- terian garden party at W. J. Kowe's was for the mimster's salary. It wad for other purposes. A PICNIC party was seen wending its way on Monday afternoon to Bell's Lake in honor of the youiig ladies who left our dale on Taesday morning lart to at- tend Demill College. We understand they had a good time. In last Saturday's Globe a half column article appeared eulogising the bustle, and on monday the same was repeated The Globe is evidently like the man who married a 250 lb., girl â€" he stud "you cannot have too much of a good thing."

Late in the evening a short pn^^^ramme was rendered, and those taking part sustained their well-earned reputation throughout. The following vras the programme: â€" Quartette, Mr. and Mrs. Leggett and Will, and Sofia Armstrong; Scotch songs, Mr. J. B. Anderson song, Mr. John Ceesar reci- tation. Miss Minnie Dqndas, and a so- prano solo by Miss Minnie Whitby. It was a rare and pretty sight to see the balloon ascending high in the heavens, and was enjoyed by ail who saw it. The victuals became scarce towards the close of the entertainment owing to the im- mense crowd, but were of a toothsome nature. After the cravings of the inner man were satisfied everybody went in for a, good time and we venture to say they had it to their entire satisfoction. The proceeds omonnted to $80.00. In connection vrith the above, Dr. McBride, Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Beattie and R. W. Ennis were the chief workers, and they deserve to be congratulated on their un- tiring and successful efforts in making this garden party one of the best eyer given in this vicinity. Mr. Beattie opened his house to the public and help- ed to arrange the grounds and even used his team in conveying pleasure-seekers to and from the garden party. The thanks of Hie Ladies' Aid is due to the farmers who kindly assisted by lending their teams, of the jail. He had reached the age of 91 years. His remains were brought to Markdale and buried in the Methodist Cemetery beside that of his late wife on Monday evening last. Sebious Accibbnt. â€" While Mr. Tuck of Euphrasia, was driving a pair of oxen along Mill Street one day last week, a miserable cur of a dog ran out from Wm. Sewell's house when the oxen gave a sudden lurch throwing Mr. Tuck off, he had been sitting on the bare gear of the wagon in a earless position and was easily upset. By the fall he had his collar bone broked and shoulder dis- located, which will lay him past for several months, if not all the coming winter. This to him is a serious misshap as he is in poor circumstances and has a large family depending on his earnings. Gabden Pabty. â€" Last Tuesday even- ing a garden party was held on Mr. Abby's spacious grounds at Berkeley in aid of the organ fund of the English church of that place. The evening was bitter cold hence the small attendance, but those who were present had a pleas- ant time. The Markdale brass band was on deck and furnished ecQfying music from its brass "trumpets." The provisions was in abundance and deli- cate to ihe taste. The refreshment booth was well patronized. A program was rendered in which the following persons took part: â€" The Misses. Ford, duet Mass Smith. Holland Centre, so- prano solo; Miss Dundas, recitation;' Mr. Smiih, Holland Centre, a song and an enchoare; W. J. Benson, two songs, all of whom ably sustained their notar- iety. The i«ogramme was interspersed by music 'by the band. Mr. J. W.
