Jf on the other hand it eau be shown that there is no such conflict be tween science, common souse and in spiration then the difficulty vanishes. A careful examination of the subject' will convince man that the support of the use of liquor, e1aimed to be derived from the Bible, is wholly imaginary ; and that the use which as made of the scriptures ie. defence of intemperance is a most flagrant perversion of the' language and impert of inspiration."

On Monday evening the members and friends of the Zurich Young Peo pie's Alliance gathered at the home of Miss Laura Williams, President of the society, and with a kind address, pre. sented her with the gift of a handsome rocking chair. After singing an Alli- ance song, " We are workers for the King," Miss Jessie Rennie came for- ward and read the follow.tng address — To the worthy President of our Y. P. A. Greetings. Dear friend and co-worker in the Y, P. A, interests and church at large l As fellow officers and members of this Alliance we extend to you this greeting, not greetings of cold formality, but Christian greetings, as an expression of that heartfelt fellowship, which comes un- der the common band of Christ, like love. How encouraging it is to labor together in God's cause to one common end, that of self improvement and uplifting of our fel- low -men. Not a small share of this in- fluence is evinced from time to time in our Alliance work, the motive of which always is " For the glory of God and the good of man." Reahzmg that not only are worthy efforts immortal, but also that worthy efforts are worthy of a just expression of apprecia- tion, we as officers, members and friends of the Alliance have gathered here to spend an hour in social intercourse and intellec- ual cniture, as a happy deviation from the arduous labor and pleasant duties of Alli- ance work. We have come to express our appreciation of your helpful service and assistance in our Y. P, A., as members and officers of the same in the past, and hope and pray for a continuance of these happy relations for the future; but " actions speak louder than words," we are told. and to verify the above adage and in order to give a tangible proof of these expressions, we, as officers, members and friends of this Alliance, herewith hand over to you this gift, (here Miss Lydia Koehler and Alfred Meliick made the presentation,) as an ex- pression of appreciation of your efforts as co.laborerwith us in the Alliance. May success in the future crown our efforts, even more abundantly than in the past. Signed in behalf of Y, P. A. • Miss Williams then responded al- though much surprised, thanking the members very heartily for their kind. gess and appreciation, that the alliance work was a pleasant one, and express- ed a hope that it might prosper in the future. After several musical numbers and games all par -took ofa .lunch,, and finally said goodnight, well pleased with their evening's pleasure. ilable is the result of his own depraved ima ivatiou. No anti that ever wrote object favors intemperance. This am phlet claims that the Bitae, seieuce and common sense agree. To this I also agree, It says "Science e• t all ferments con of which is a poison under all circumstances and to all doses." It claims common souse agrees with science. I claim that science declares king. Science 'raves that wino(a fermented liquor) contains about 15 or 20 per cent. strength, and that alcohol is 100 per cent. strength. Alcohol is a. distilled spirit, whilst wine is fermented. Distilled liquor was un- known to the ancients, not having been discovered until the ninth cen- tury. Did the writer of the pamph- let know this fact ? In trying to prove that the wine of Cana was not ferment- ed, he says it could not be fermented, is alcohol was not in existence till the ninth century. Now did the writer of the above know that he was penning an untruth ? Did those lecturers know that this theory was untrue? Do those societies which have built on this sup- er structure know that it is not true ? C. PROUTY'. Orediton Miss Norris, who has been the guest of Mrs. Wm.

OniTuATWY.--Tho hand of death has called away one of our pioneers in the .1 person of Frederick Triebner. Mr. Triebner was to Exeter Thursday morning and returned seemingly in the best of health. Mr. Sanders, who was working near the house of Mr. Triebner called in at noon to get leis dinner pail. Upon entering, Mr. San- ders saw Mr. Triebner lying on the floor unconscious. A doctor was called but he was past help, nevertheless he lived till Saturday morning. He was interred in the Exeter cemetery by Rev. Litt on Monday afternoon at 2 p.m. Mr. Triebner had lived to the rine age of 79 years, and in spite of his old age it was a little thing for him to walk to Exeter and back again in a forenoon, He leaves to mourn his loss, a widow and son, Frank. ACCIDENT ---A Cranbrook correspon- dent to the Brussels Post says:—"On Thursday night of last week: after the services was oyer in the Methodist church Rev. Mr. Yelland and John Knight went to the shed for the parson's horse. The two geutlemen got into the buggy and were turning out of the shed when one wheel of the buggy ran over some obstacle and the jolt put the light out in the lantern attached to the dashboard. In some unaccount- able manner Mr. Yelland was thrown out, breaking the whip in his fall, and it is supposed the horse must have tramped on him for two ribs were brok- en and damages inflicited that have laid the reverend gentleman up. We are sorry about it as he had only re cantly recovered from another accident with his horse received at Crediton be fore moving to Ethel circuit, We hope Mr. Yelland will soon be batter.
