W. D. McDonald of Wark- worth, has received a unanitbous call from the Atwood Presbyterian Church congregation.

The increase is almost one hundred Percent.

No wonder he grumbles and grunts and sighs, and brushes the briny from both his eyes! I'd rent no palace of brick or stone; for an old caboose I can all my own, is better far, though it's cheap and small, than a fine hotel or a rented hall. I want to sit on my dinky porch, and pull away at a five- cent torch, and mark the growth of the sparrowgrass, or pull the weeds from the `garden sass. I want to tinker around at dawn, and nail a board where I see one's gone, or tie a string to the pumpkin vine, and know that every- thing there is mine. I'd rather live in a shackly Cot, with a lop-eared cow in the stable lot, and a barbed wire fence and a row of trees, and a swaybacked dog and a Swarm of bees, and have no debts: that would spoil my sleep, thin have a hall with a donjon keep, and a mortgage big as the village square, though pomp and splendor were resign, ing there. To have a borne and be out of debt -well, that is truly the best scheme yet! --Walt. Mason. The regular passenger service over the Glengarry and Stormont Railway, the new C. P. I2. branch line between Cornwall and Montreal, was inaugur- ated. 1 Excellent Assortment of Housefurnishings I CURTAINS, CURTAIN 4ao es nno WINDOW SHADES. euots, CURTAINS, DRAPERIES, RUGS, SQUARES, OILCLOTHS, .

A peculiar characteristic about birds is that the young of those that build nests in trees are blind when hatched,,, are naked, unable to walk and are fed by the parent bird. Among the wad- ing birds the young can walk, Swint and pick up food immediately upon leaning the egg. With birds, as witit higher antmnls, the females seem to fancy bright colors and music; lienee+, Mother- Nature usually ornaments the bend, neck and tails of the males that they maTEittd mates mote readily- The male birds usually excel in music also. -*whange, A Pleasant Way to Help. • "Mamma," lisped the cherub, while, a smile of seraphic Sweetness illurn& flitted his baby face, "do you know that sometimes I help Catherine's mam.
