TIIE PERFECT
MAN
Tr.ere is a man who never drinks,
Nor smokes, nor chews, nor swears,
Who never gambles. never flirts.
And shuns all sinful snares.
Ire's paralized.
Taere is a matt wao never does
A single thing not right,
Ills wlte can tell just where he is
At morning, noun and night.
Ile's dead.

Thomas Wall, an inmate of the House
of Refuge at Clinton is evidently deter-
mined to end his life, It possible. Two
weeks ago, before being brought here,
he made an unsuccessful attempt to
drown himself in Ashfield. On Mon-
day last he attempted to choke himself
to death by grasping his throat with his
hands, but was discovered in time to
prevent itis accomplishing his purpose.
Ile was committed to Goderich }all.
Never suspect your friend of doing you
wrong until the proof of It is as plain
and as clear as the sun at noon on a
cloudless day, and then. yes, even then,
do not accuse or censure until you have
heard from his own lips his version of
the supposed wrong. It you were ever a
friend to him he le certain lye ntitled to
that much forbearance and considera-
tion, It this rule was practised many a
misunderstanding would be averted,
and many a heartache spared.

onto Main street It continued through
the Central alley and into W. G. 131e-

cause there was no place else to go. Only

Anybody can soil the reputation of
to Individual. however pure and chaste,
by uttering a suspicion that his enemies
will believe, and his friends never 'tear
of. A puff of idle wind can take a mil -
1:o t of the seeds of the tired- and do the
work of mischief which the husbandman
must labor long to undo. Such arc the
seeds of slander, so easily sown, so dif-
ficult to be gathered up, and yet so
pernicious Inn their fruits. No reputation
can refute a sneer, nor any human skill
prevent mischief.

These are the days when wheat is
wheat. The market 1s very strong at
present. For a few days 1t has been
ranging from a dollar to a dollar and
five. Never since 1895. when Joe Leiter
tried to corner the market, were things
so interesting as at present. The cause
for the rise In price Is credited to the
tendency to shortage In the world's sup-
ply. and the persistent rumor that Pat-
ton of Chicago is working for a corner.
ills holdings at present are estimated at
from 25 to 40 million bushels. The lo-
cal supply 1s naturally growing short.

At the Presbytery meeting last week
in Clinton the following minute was read
and adopted.—Tho Presbytery of HurOn
hereby places on record its high apprecia
tion of the services rendered by Rev. W.
AI. Martin, B. D., during his pastorate in
Exeter and Chisoihurst. Owing to the
scattered condition of the people and
their numerical weakness the field has
been more than usually difficult, but
under his superintendence, satisfactory
progress has been made. Int every de-
partment of his work, as pastor and
member of Presbytery, he endeavored to
do his duty, and from first to last he
has enjoyed the confidence and esteem
of his own people and his co -presbyters
As a citizen his record has been equally
honorable. In the cause of temperance
and moral reform especially he has al-
ways been regarded as a wise and trust-
worthy leader. The Presbytery is thank-
ful to God for the work he has been in-
strumental in accomplishing during his
pastorate of 26 years within their bound
ary, and they pray that he may be spar-
ed for many years to render further
service as God may give him opportun-
ity, and that the health of hie wife may
be speedily and fully restored. — The
congregation of Exeter having c>tpreseed
a desire for separation from the con-
gregation of Chlselhurst, Messrs. Lar-
kin, Fletcher and Shaw, with their el -
dere, were appointed a committee to
confer with the latter as to their fu-
ture relations and standing.
LECTURE
I)o not fall to hear the Lecture by the
itev. Jas. Livingstone next Monday even-
ing in James street church on 'The Hu-
man Voice," one of this eminent lectur-
er's best subjects. being of a most pleas
Ing, humorous and instructive nature.

HOCKEY MATCIIES.
A teats of Exeter hockey players drove
no Lu•an on Thursday evening and play -
(d a game with the club of that town.
resulting in favor of Lucan. 10-9. Ow-
ing to the narrowness of the rink the
game was lacking in individual or conn -
bin tttoa work. The visitors report the
hest of treatment at the hands of the
home team.
That Heeler has this year the strong-
est hockey tears of some years was well
proven on Friday night when they de-
feated the fast Hcnsall team on the Ex-
eter rink by a score ot 3-1, to a game
of 50 minutes length. Tree Exeter play-
ers were) Goal, P. Fleming; Point, 8.
Ilawden ; Cover, le. ilawkshaw ; hover,
R. Southcott ; Forwards, i1. Martin, G.
Acheson, and C. Dyer. The itensali
players were, Goal, 1I. White; Point, 1t.
C:uneron, Cover, A. White; Ilover, E.
Stacey ; Forwards. A. Rickert, P. iluch-
anan, W. Shepherd. W. Perkins of lien -
salt refereed and F. Smallacombe and
G. Anderson were goal umpires. Exeter
scored the first goal in two minutes and
Ilensall followed with one its one minute.
Eight minutes later Exeter scored No. 2,
and no further goals were secured In the
first 25 nnlnutes, in the second half Ex-
eter secured one in five minutes, and, al-
thouga both teams worked hard for the
remainder of the half, no more counts
were made. The players of both teams
were Individually good and some good
combination work was Indulged in. al-
though the latter feature of the work is
always Interfered with much by the
posts. Sandy Bawden stakes a beautl-
itul point player and stopped many a
sltot that looked good. In an individual
rush he 1s a whirlwind and repeatedly
carried the puck to the opponents' goat
only to fail in scoring by the good work
of White in goal. Another feature of
the playing was the work of Southcott
as rover. ile Is very speedy and is an
1 xce llent shot. Unfortunately he was of
for fifteen minutes owing to an injury.
The game throughout was clean and
Fleming was the only man sent to the
bench, and that for bee two minutes. A
good crowd of enthusiasts was present
and the victory was thoroughly appreci-
ated.
A plek-up tette of hockey players went
to Hensel) Tuesday nignt and as expect-
ed got a goof tritnmteg.
