bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Wm. H.

grown to beautiful womanhood in Fair

matrimonial prize and all Fairmont

prosperity and unalloyed happiness.—•

their married life.
Notice to Farmers.
We grind buckwheat every Friday
during the buckwheat season. Our
machinery is the best that money can
buy and our buckwheat flour has a na
tional reputation and is second to none.
We have 800 bushels in sight now and
expect to grind much more as the crop
is bountiful and of excellent quality.
To those who wish, we will put up
their flour in 124 or 25 pound paper
sacks at a reasonable price. We will
grind for toll or cash as you desire.
Yours for trade,
Florenceville Roller Mills.
