On Friday evening, at tho opening meeting of the Gavcrsham Literary and liecreational Club, Mr 8. W. Anderson delighted the members with an account ol his party’s recent research on the Silver Peaks. He produced an excellent specimen of an elongated spider. After the lecture the annual election of officers was held, and an interesting programme for monthly meetings to ho held on the first Saturday in each month was arranged. It was decided that next mooting be an evening of impromptu speeches. Two Soots were discussing the merits of their new M.F. '’Man.’' said one of them, “ho is no’ a bad chap, the colonel. He sent me an’ mu wife a hue turkey. 1 u car, clear!” said tho other man, who had not voted for the colonel, “that was bribery'." “JBut,” wont on the recipient, “the bird was a wee bit high, and, as wc oouldna’ eat it, we had to throw it away..” ‘ Worse and worse,” said his friend; “bribery and corruption.” You have a bad cold in the head, Don’t wait while tho symptoms grow worse, To delay while they fester and spread Is foolish and sadly perverse; You’ll have to take something—and aeon! Survival and ease to assure— Don’t be a cantankerous coon, Take Woods’ Great Peppermint Cure.— £Advt.]
