the congregation of the Trivitt Mem-
orial look forward to a term of con-
tinued spiritual and numerical pros --
per -sty under his incumbency.

spent a pleasant evening on Tuesday
night when they were visited by

the ,local brethren exemplified the
work of that degree. The visitors

Any "home merchant" who isn't
awake, aaad fails to tell the people
about his wares, should read this
startling statement 'made by the man-
ager of a big Toronto mail order
house recently: "We have a bureau
whose duty it is to read the country
newspapers. There is not a single
newspaper of any consequence in
our territory we da not get. tjh•e
bureau locks over these .papers and
when we find a town where the mer-
ch.an:s do not .advertise in the local
paper, we immediately flood that sec-
tion with our literature_ It always
brines results far in excess of the
same effort taut forth in territory
where the local anerchants use their
local paper?'
