He applied these :words .spirituatlly; to-ivarii as his "personal influence," his "fellow feel- ing" =dills. "attitude towards :God." As an example o£ man's "length," he told the following ineidebt which illus- trated it very nicely;'4gW0 moil were conversing o,i their future, occupations when one said he be a :drai:k- digger as he• thought he was best fitted and could inosi: successfully follow this line of. work for the' good of his fellow. beingsas he would Strain their l tfld and. goodlyincrease, The yield. a,c cause it to other acrobat said that lie Would be a minister, wearing fineclothes, all the' time, visiting ',three parts,- of the time, doing very little the rest of the tine and ingeneralhaving a'snap'.

Rev, D. Rogers. the Methodist minister, and Rev. W. J. West, M. A., addressed the meeting. The addresses given interested all who were present. The object of the meet - leg was to gain as many- members as possible to join the Wingliam branch. A few joined aud more aro expected. Mr. A. McEwen was elected Secretary - Treasurer and will make a canvas of the village. Similar meetings will bo held in. Belgrave and Whitechurch.. The object of the alliance is to preserve our Sabbath as a day for the cultivation. of our spiritual natures and. for rest. To arouse interest in the matter requires the distribution of information which cannot be done withoutmouey. 1VIoney is want- ed but perhaps not vuite as much as Members.. Tho speakers raid that in this district we know nothing of Sabbath desecration but in border towns work and pleasure try to rule on that 'day. The quiet of the Sabbath is a great bles- sing, leaving the spiritualaspect aside, which is well looked after by the min- isters. What shall we eat, what shall we drink and wherewithal shall we be clothed occupies so completely the mind and body and time of a family during the week that they are sonietinies, if away many evenings, Iibt very swell ac- quainted with each other. But on Sun- day they get time to tali to' each' other other and feel'like a family again, be- sides'liaving a little while for quiet thinking, If work and holiday trips fill up the Sabbath the man with the hoe as described by Edwin Markham, will rapidly increase and workingpeople will more than ever be mere human machines Let hien then refuse to have "upon his back the burden of the world" for that day and use it for the, rest • of his body and the good of his brain,and soul.. We should not however observe the Sabbath because we may, not prosper if we don't. Find out if it' is right, if it is, then ob Serve it whether you,prosperor not. Ob- serving it for fear of the consequences is not religion but superstition, and is like teaching a child to be honest, because it is the best. policy. .
