Thanksgiving Day is past, and with it numerous turkeys are "gone but not for- gotten." An over-supply of rich diet is liable to leaye a sting behind. W. H. Milner, who has been employed/ in Mr. Mathews' harness shop for some months, has accepted a "sit." ia Thorn- hill, and left for that place last week. Thos.

Every additional member is a direct pecuniary advantage to the Institute, besides the benefit to. the indiyidual, so that it should have a hearty and Uberal support. A copy of "Night And Day" for Nov., is before us. This is a twenty page pamphlet issued monthly in Dr. Bam* ardo's Homes for Destitue Children. This is indeed a charitable institution which deserves the patronage of all and is entirely dependent on the contribu- tions of the beneyolent public. Evening classes are to open about the 1st December in connection with Mark- dale Mechanic«i' Institute. Every young man in the district should join. ' The course will be equal to that of a Busi- ness College, and the teiicher fully com- petent. The tuition fee is only $1 a quarter for non-members 50 cents for raembers of the Institute.

Pbomenade Concbbt.â€" The weather wasi tolerably favorable for the above entertain- ment on Thursday evening last, considering the season of the year, and there was a fair house. The roller rink having been recently fitted up for a pubho hall, was occupied as such for the first time, and is in eveiy way well adapted for the purpose. The ceiling is high, the room spacious, having seating capacity for over six himdred, and the stage large and well elevated. Mr. Marsh, the owner, deserves the thanks of the town, for fitting up such an excellent public hall. The programme was a trifle behind time starting, but was well maintained throughout. The brass band appeared to good advantage in their handsome uniforms, and contributed much towards entertaining the audience. ^Irs. (Gapt.) Thompspn. of Toronto, was well received and her singing much appreciated, especially by all competent judges of music. Her selections received a hearty enchore, and the wish expressed that Markdale might scon be favored with another opportunity of listening to her. A recess of half an hour between the 1st and 2nd parts was given for a general promenade, in accordance with the announcement for a promenade concert, dur^ ing which interval the brass band discoursed Appropriate march music, but, whether the company, being unaccustomed to the new modus operandi, were bashful in joining in the piconenade, or whether the new chairs were chuged with loadotone, we are unable to determine, but one. thing is certain, the (! great majority remained as fast to their seats Afteb the first of November hotel- as the pie-crust on "Miss Fogarty's Christ- keepers whose buildings exceed two /mas Cake." Dr. McBride presided with his stories in height are required to erect '"i^'â„¢od modesty and precision an iron stairway or ladder attached to his the wall of the building and comraunie- ations with every floor above the first one.

Nelect of the pje. vious entails a fine from $20 to $1QQ, New Style of Post Cars.â€" The Post Office Department will soon issue a new style of postal card. It ia much like the double card of the present pattern. The back folds are split diagonally and open like a pointed star. The four corners are folded and joined in the centre, when the card is ready for mail* ing, with a piece of gummed paper. The card weighs less than half an ounoe. and wiUfontainpomore writing than the present card, the only advantage being greater privacy. Fob the last three montlis the average weekly -circulation of the SxANnABn was 809. If we average each f anuly at five persons, that wofdd make, in round numbers, 4,000. Now if yon have any* thing to adyertisei, we can toll four thousand people about it every week at a very small cost to you.

If yon want to advertiae for a teacher we will give same terms. This offer is good to end of 1888.
