Graham notifies for his Saturday's auction sale, drapery without reserve; fowls, dray, funiture, etc. See advertisement.

Black-Smith is a somewhat unusual combination of names, but it is peculiarly appropriate when the work done is that of a blacksmith. Mr W. J. Black is showing some very fine examples of horse shoes made by Mr R. Smith, in Mr McCorkindale's window, Rora street, just now. There are over 30 specimens, ranging from the lightest of shoes for a racer, to the heaviest shoe worn by a Clydesdale. The work has been excellently done and is well worth examination by any user of horse flesh. The Aria dairy factory opens on September 25th and with the country looking so well after the rains the prospects for next season are very promising. The directors have received some good offers for their output, and from Sod to 9d per lb is assured for butter fat.

A play for g'rls, en- [ titled "Flower Fairies," will be the leading feature, and half a dozen tableaux, participaced in by the adult members of the church, will also prove interesting. Solos, quartettes, and choruses, taken part in by local friend 3, will be given and a very popular entertainment should be the result of the efforts now being put forth.
