LeBlanc has been miscing jor five weeks, and his family are without any ‘nformation as to his where- abouts or the cause of his disappearance. He left his house on the 19th of July last, saying that he was going to Salisbury te purchase a truck wagon. His relations with his wife, parents and neighbors were of the most pleas- ant and friendly character, and on going away he remarked that he would be back the next

Nickel or Stoves it is especially useful. Retail price, 25 cents per bottle, MICA WASH.—This wash is the only

thing of the kind ever invented. A stove may be as handsome asa jewel and shine like ebony; but smoked mica lights will spoil it all, Day by day mica becomes scarcer and higher in price, and an article that will clean and preserve it is valuable to all concerned, Try this wash once, and you will always use it.
