.A Swift horse,
The passage of the night train west
from Niagara Falls on the Grand Trunk
on Friday was enlivened by a peculiar
incident. Near St. George about 2
o'clock a white horse bad found its way
unto the track and paid no hoed to the
whistle as it sounded. As the engine
approached and threatened to make a
test of the animal's physical powers of
resistance, the latter took to his heels
and ran ahead of the locomotive show-
ing wonderful speed and endurance for
eight miles until Paris was reached. In
its mad career the horse crossed two
bridges one being the long trestle bridge
over the Grand River, which was got
over in safety. The train consisted of
11 passenger cars and two locomotives.
• The engineer at the front sounded the
whistle almost continuously, in hope of
diverting the horse from the tracks or of
, purging him to greater speed with only
the later result. It was not until Paris
siding was reached that the animal
slackened speed and loft the main track
in front of the engine. On examination
be was found to be terribly exhausted,
covered with foam and almost a wreck.
The speed and Staying power possessed
by the animal can be judged when it is
stated, according to trainmen, the engin-
eer only slackened twice, where thtSre
seemed a danger of overtaking the swift -
Hying steed, and in the distance lost but
seven minutes.
TALES OF A BRUCE PIONEER;
hxporiorlecs or Early Days
W. L, Smith, editor of the 'Weekly
Sun, while visiting in Brace poked up
some interesting accounts of early life
in the wilds of Bruce. We reprint his
interview with Capt. McLeod of Lorne.
OLD-TIME FREIGHT nierEs.
Capt. McLeod with the help of his
brother, built the first vessel ever put
together in Kincardine. How was the
work done? Let the Captain toll the
story.
"About 1450," said he, "I bought a
whip saw i». Goderich. for $5, and
between carrying and trailing, I got it
to Kincardine, With that saw my
brother and myself whip -sawed the
lumber for the first boat built at that
Place—nu open vessel of eight or nine
tons. How did we whip -saw? The saw
was like that used in an old-style water-
lniil, with the tooth all sot one way, A
pit was made at the side of a bank, the
bank serving to support one end of the
platform; posts, set upright a little way
out from the bank, held up the other
end of the platform. Below this fait -
farm there was % space about six or
seven feet high, and in that ono man
stood and pulled down on the saw while
another stood above and pulled up./How
much lumber could two men cut in a
day? Two mien who worked well
together would cut 400 feet, but 250 to
300 feet was a fair day's work. My
brother and I whip -sawed all the lumber
for the floor, gable ends, roof and
window casing of a house 24x18, and
took a yoke of nine-year-old oxen for
our pay. This house was put up for
Neil McDonald, lot 41, con. 9, Kincar-
dine. • Few of the settlers, however,
had sawn boards in the houses. Boards
split from basswood logs with an axe,
and hewn smooth, served for flooring
and the making of chairs, tables and
other furniture as well."
25 GENTS A BUSHEL ON WHEAT.
But let us go back to tho Captain's
own element. "In the days I speak of,"
ho said, "25 cents a bushel was the lake
rate on wheat from Chicago to Buffalo.
From Kincardine to Goderich, thirty
miles, it was five cents. From Windsor
to Kincardine the rate on merchandise
by sailing vessel was $6. per ton. A
passenger was carried from Goderich to
Kincardine for 50 cents. Did we feed
them? No; they fed themselves; but
they generally needed mighty little
while on the water.
"About- 1857 the old Ploughboy, a
steam craft, carne on the scene, and
then our passenger business was done.
What was she like? Oh, a very good
river boat; she was built to run between
Chatham and Detroit, she was 140 or
150 feet long, had cabin accommodation
and would plow along at about eight or
nine miles an hour."

E tplyouOn 1'resident Atcltinley.
Tlie sight of a great popple, a people
of seventy millions, peacefully electing
its laced, has boon truly said to be im-
posing and to be full of laopo for hum-
anity. But admiration can hardly be
extended to the general choice of can-
didates. Their usual mediocrity is sin-
gularly contrasted with the prominence
of the nation in practical nbility, of
which the abounding presence is seen ill
every lino but that of Government.
Selection for the Presidency' tends i;lore
and more to be the work of the machine,
for the purposes of which blind sub-
serviency to certain interests and tho
absence of indopeLident feriae of char-
acter, are the moispensable quali-
fications. President MClinley is the
servant of the party and of the hour.
He is the model of what is now called
opportunism, but once had a plainer
na<aae. He coquetted with Silver when
Si;.ver was in the ascendant. When
Gold triumphed he declared for Gold.
One day he styles it the height of in-
iquity to impose differential duties on
Porto Rico; next day he concurs in im-
posing them. He most solemnly re-
nounces acquisition of territory and pro-
ceeds to acquire the Philippines with
the sword. ' He enters on a crusade of
freedom and slaughters people for striv-
ing to be free. It was evident that his
own judgment and conscience were
against war with Spain. Yet he made
that war and disturbed the peace of the
world to secure bis own renomination.
He showed that he knew the character
of the story about the Maine; but he
made use of it to inflame the people and
to gain their consent to this war. Pro-
tectionism was his original title to nom-
ination, and it is the single principle to
which he has been consistently true,
though the name is scarcely appropriate,
since the policy is not one of impartial
aucl comprehensive protection for Amer-
ican industries, but of monopoly for
certain powerful interests which make
the President their tool. The unctuous-
ness of Mr. McKinley's speeches, which
offends general taste, is defended by his
admirers on the ground of his sincerity.
But no hypocrisy is so daugerons as that
which half deceives itself.—Bystander.

AIRS.. JOHN HOLLAND, OF TARANTUM,
P. E. X., GIVES ITER EXPERIENCE FOR
TEE BENEFIT OF SIMILAR SUFFFRRERS
—DR, WILLIAMS' PINE PILLS CURED
HER AFTER OTHER MEDICINES FAILED.
From the watchman, Charlottetown,
Mrs. John Holland, of Tarantutu, P.
E. I., is well known and highly resuect-
ocl in the coanmuuity where she resides.
For some years her life was one of
misery and suffering, having boon au
acute sufferer font that common foe of
humanity, dyspepsia, A reporter hear-
ing of her restoration to health through
the agency of that wonderful ronhecly,
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People,
called upon Mrs. Holland to obtain
particulars, which were cheerfully given
as follows:—"About four years °ago I
becameyery ill, I was attacked with a
distressing pain in my stomach, accom-
panied by flashes of heat and cold.
These attacks were generally preceded
by s sleepiness and stupor which re-
quired constant exertiou to keep awake.
I had little or no appetite and food lay
as a stone ori my stomach. As time
passed, I was growing worse, vomiting
of food set in, with sudden changes of
heat and cold in my feet. I was so
reduced in strength as to not be able to
walk any distance without resting. To
work I dare not attempt. I began to
feel that I could not live very long in
my present condition. I was reduced in
weight to 115 pounds. Two years ago I
began using Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.
Before this I had tried various advertised
medicines, but without any benefit re-
sulting. I was using the second box of
the pills before I felt any . benefit, but
from that my recovery was rapid. I
used in all five boxes of pills, and have
never felt better in my life than I do at
the present moment. All the disagree-
able sensations that accompany
dyspepsia have vanished; I can enjoy
hay meals with relish, and my weight
has increased from 115 to 139 pounds. It
is now more than a year since I discon-
tinued the use of the pills, and as .[ have.
not had the slightest touch of the
trouble in that time, I feel safe in say-
ing that my cure is permanent. I would
strongly advise others suffering from
stomach troubles to give Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills a fair trial."
Dr. Williams Pink Pills cure by going
to the root of the disease. They re-
new and build up the blood, and
strengthen the nerves, thus driving
disease from the system. Avoid
imitations by insisting that every box
you purchase is enclosed in a wrapper

I have had a large opportunity for
watching the 511CCess of young men and
I have never known a clerk,. or for that
platter 4 young Ulan in any position to
want for appreciation who gave himself
seriously to Ms business. The vert';st
old churl will not fail to recognize
genuine interest oat the part of all
employee. In any case earnestness is
"twice blessed " for it brings develop-
ment aid strength to the yoursg man
1litneelf and satisfeotion and protit to
those on whose behalf he labors. "Just
watoh that young fellow climb the tree"
said a friend concerning a )ltd of six-
teen a few years ago who showed great
interest i11 his work as a clerk in a rail-
road office. Time has passed, the young
num:was not cue of the kind wile "grows
weary of well doing" and he is now,
although not twenty-five in a place that
many men of forty might well covet.
He made himself master of detail, of
railroading and by dint of studying in
spare time has become an authority.
There is no saying what he will bo

managership waiting for him either in
connection with his own road or some

Cherries are Iripel
Beyond the usual cherry pie, and au
occassional pudding, there aro few fam-
ilies where the possibilities of a cherry
diet aro really appreciated. As the
cherry seasou-is soon over, the delicious
fruit is either canned or preserved for
winter use, aiid the delicious shortcakes
and sherbets and dumplings made from
the fresh fruit are neglected for want of
experimental knowledge. Once try these
tested receipts and you will luxurate in
toothsome deserts through the cherry
season.
SHORTCAKE.—Make a crust as for bak-
ing powder biscuit. When baked split

which have been stoned as well as sweet-
ened, cover with the other half of the
cake, and pile the sweetened cherries on
the top. This should be sent to the
table at once. A richer cake may of
course be made, using any good rule for
shortcake. It is hardly advisable to use
whipped cream with cherries, but they
are 'sometimes covered with a meringue
made by beating a teaspoonful of
powdered sugar with the white of each
egg.
PUDDING.—One pint of flour, a cupful
of milk, butter the size of an egg, two
eggs, half a cupful of Sugar, two tea-
spoonfuls of baking -powder, a little salt
and a pint of cherries which have bowl
storied. Boil one hour. If ono has not
a regular boiler, the batter may be turn-
ed into a five pound lard -pail, or any
tin pail holding about two quarts.
Cover tightly aud place 111 a large kettle
of boiling water, which should also bo
covered. Never let the pudding stop
boiling for a second until it is removed.
SAv:E. Put a pint of milk in the
double boiler, and when it comes to the
boiling point, add three eggs, well beat -
01i, and stir till smooth and soft like oust-
ard. When cool, flavor with lemon.

Ilas it ever occurred to anybody to
consider what, sooner or later, would
be the effect upon the mass of their fel-
low -beings if a company or fellowship
of men and women of recognized social
leadership should biud themselves to-
gether to illustrate in their habits of life,
simplicity of attire, modesty of equip-
age, inexpensiveness in the appoint-
ments, and chasteness in the aspect,
proportions, furniture and decorations
of their dwellings; should further bind
themselves to discourage the habit of
excessive accumulation; to employ for
art, science, philanthropy and religion
all beyond a certain propoa?tion of their
income; should devote a `certain fixed
time in every day to other human in-
terests than their own; should devise,
and themselves co-operate in, plans for
softening tile=•rigors of 'life to the 1
