The twentieth anniversary of the mar
riage of Mr. and Sirs. S. M. Poff , was

dition of beautiful cakes and other temptIng -
Ing edibles. After supper Mr. S. K.

Unfortunate Gcorglo I'urvla.
Little Goorglo Purvis is certainly in
very hard luck. When a little fellow ho
lad the misfortune to break his arm and
later one of his legs and now his log has
Doon again broken. On Sunday morning
whllo enacting near his father's residence
on St Mary's avenue , his sled run against
a snag and the force of the collision was
sufficient to break his leg.
His leg was broken in the same way
before. Ho is under the care of a skill
ful physician and his many little friends ,
with whom ho is a general favorite hope
soon to see him among them apain.
