Sir,—I am glad to see thatitae temper- ance movement is again on the move in Charlottetown. The Band is again out, and will, doubtless, afford stirring music to the temperance people. The last occa- sion on which music was prov¥led was just before the last Scott Act election, and it had great effect. This time it is to be hoped eimilar results will follow. That the movement will be successful is iS, pe hap:, guaranteed, when it is known ; that the Hon.

He gave us the vote on Prohibition and he gave Sum- merside a vendor against the wishes of the people, and his ideas on temperance would be very valuable. Itis really too j; bad that all the temperance work should fallon Mr. Farquharson’s shoulders, But it is not to late yet to ask Mr. Peters fr | a few words on the subject,and the com- | mittee would do well to call on him.

Sir,—In your las: week’s issue I noticed | av article condemning the fraud in = con | nection with the Double Action Oscillating Washer and Wringer. Now, Sir, I can truthfully state that the Double Action Oscillating Washer and the new No. 1 Star Wringer are all that they are repre- sented to be. The washer is not only the easiest running but also the best ever brought before the people of P. E. Island. The wringer is # perfect gem. Persons who have tried them (and there are a great many) tay they would not be without them for twice the money paid if unable to secure another of the same kind.

Now, | whilst I would not uphold such tactics as those of A. L. Burke, I will speak well of the bait he has held out to agents. The fire, Downswell Bros., that manufactures those machines is, we believe, a_ reliable, | square dealing one and guarantees every washer and wringer that passes out of | their factory.

All the arrangements were made for the wedding, and the young woman weat to Marion and was married the morning of her arrival. After the ceremony the groom took his bride to the home he had prepared, but she expressed grave disap- pointment, said she didn’t like either him or his home, and started straightaway back to her father’s house. She explained atterward that her husband had sent her a picture of a handsomer man than himeelf, and had misrepresented his position in life. e+ere —*When moralizing on the returns of the North Ontarie election,” says the Globe, Controller Wallace will be im- pressed with the truth that ‘men may come and men may go’ but the Conxserv- ative Orangemen goon forever.” It is evident that the Orangemen of Ontario are not going to change their Dominion party politics on account of the Manitoba ques tion and that the Glube knows it. courtship by correspondence.awere illustrat~ FROM ALL POINTS OF TaE COMPASS An Amendment to the Constitation, W ASHINGTON, Dec. 17 Among the more important resolution introduced in the senate yesterday was one by Mr. Frye for anamendment to the constitution ac knowledging God im that instrument.
