where it was sold in small lots. The
other day the young inan received a
nicely written letter from a lady book-

etonn DIVINE HEALERS.
Religious excitement runn high in
the northern part of the township of
Brant, says the Walkerton Herald.
Some time ago a Miss Leggett became
a convert to Divine Healing. She visit-
ed the headquarters of the sect in Chi-
cago, where she claims to have receiv-
ed health and such inspiration that she
became an apostle of the new doctrine,
and is carrying on an active campaign
in propagating it. A couple of years
ago one of the converts went into hog
raising on an extensive scale. He put
up new buildings, purchased some of
the best breeding sows and was mak-
ing the business a profitable one. But
-
the Divine Realms have adopted that
part of the Jewish belief which classes
the hogs as an unclean animal, cursed
of God and unfit for food. When the
convertreferred to received "the light"
he drove his pen of valuable hogs to
the bush and shot them, leavingtheir
bodies there to rot. Another neighbor
had paid several years on an insurance
policy, but believing that providing
for the future in this way showed a
lack of faith in God, he threw his pol-
icy into the fire and burned it. These
, are only some of the peg:Ajax doings
of the sect, who profess a greater de-
gree of holiness than is vouch-safed to
the ordinary Christian. It is said they
,P]ass ministers, doctors and Strug,gi.sts
the same class as the devil.

Lines on the death of Leura Oliver
neap of Mrs. John Parsons, Centatlin.
How fleeting are onr brightest hopee,
How transient le their stay,
And those we really love the most
Are first to fade away.
Tho fair it be in many ways,
This earth is not our home,
And she is in a fairer land,
Where sorrow is unknown.
What friend would be so selfish then,
ask for Laura's stay on earth,
\Vhen she can live in Heaven.
Or why should friends for Laura grieve
• Tho she has gone away,
While earth affords no resting place
Then why &mild Laura stay?
When she can live in mansions fair,
On Canaan's peaceful shore,
And nr,uhda#: by a Saviour's care, •
