An old-fashioned spirited " revival" was
in progress in Miss Keziah's town. ,To such
pitch had the religious enthusiasm of the
community been excited the church would
not hold the people who crowded to the
services ; and to get a seat at all 'twee
necessary to be on hand long before the
ringing of the bell.
Now of all the entertainments in the
world, revivals were the most dear to Mies
Kezish's pious heart, and she was nothing
if not prompt and punctual. But revivals
affected her strangely,and paused her,while
attending them, to lose her calm and plac-
id way of doing things. One morning, on
the occasion in question, a very celebrated
preacher wase to lend his'eloquence and
noise to the revival. Miss Keziah could
not sleep for thinking of it, and was up and
at work early so as to be at church in good.
time ; but,' laboring under the disadvant-
age of great nervous excztement,she found,
after all her energy, that she would be late
to church unless she dressed in the greatest
hurry.
This accounted for her chignon not be-
ing pinned on with accustomed security,
and for the fact that she had gone but a
abort distance from her own gate when
she lost it, and that, too, without dis-
covering thab it was gone. She noticed
people who passed looking back atherand
laughing, and in her face, she was conscious
that some unusual attention was being be-
stowed on her; but she little dreamed the
picture she -was presenting. Yet not one

CHRISTMAS COOKING.
Christmas Cracker Pudding.—Split and

milk. In the morning beat four eggs and
add the milk in which the crackers have
been soaked. Mix one salt spoonful of
cinnamon and one half teaspoonful of salt.
with one half cup of sugar and add to the
custard. Add also one half cup of stoned
raisins. Put a layer of crackers in e.pud-
ding dish then pour in a part of the custard
and repeat until all is used ; in this way
the seasoning is evenly distributed through
the pudding. Bake this pudding one and
one half hours and another half hour *ill
not hurt it ; cover it at first if the oven is
hot. Serve with silver settee :—Cream one
half cup of butter, add gradually one cup
of powered sugar and two tablespoonfuls of
brandy. Just before serving beat the
whites of two eggs to a stiff froth and stir
into the sauce. Heap lightly on a glass
dish and grate nutmeg oyer the top. Meas-
ure the powered sugar after it, is sifted.
If, as many people prefer, a substitute is
used for the wine use a teaspoonful of
vanilla extract and sufficient water to make
up the amount of liquid.
French Fruit Pudding.—Chop one pint
of suet finely after having dredged it with
flour. Add one and three quarters cups of
molasses, one half teaspoonful of salt, two
teaspoonfuls of cinnamon, one teaspoonful
of cloves, one pint of sour milk, two tea-
spoonfuls of soda, four cups of flour and
one half pint each of raisins and currants
which have been floured. Pour the batter
into a buttered mould and steam for four
hours. Use pastry flour as bread flour
would make it tough. But if bread flour
must be used for lack of any other, use lees
as it swells more than pastry flour. Serve
this plum pudding with stifling sauce:—

lumps • then add four tablespoonfuls of

ODIOUS COMPARISONS.
In Railways and in Shipping Canada 15
Ahead of the United States.
A few Canadians have got into the habit
of looking away from home for enterpriee
and development. They belittle their own
country, and point to what they consider
the greater enterprise of other countries.
The United States ie generally the country
referred to as the embodiment of advance-
ment. If these people were acquainted
with the actual facts theywouldhave little
reason for such comparisons to the diead-
vantage of their own country. The fact is,
that inan honest comparison of the two
countries, Canada is by no means ata dis-
advantage, but rather the contrary is
he case. The . only true comparison
is one of percentage. Canada has
increased in population more rapid-
ly than the United States, not-
withstanding that our population is small as
compared with the republic. In railways
and in shipping we are clean out of sight in
advance of our neighbors, and in education
and actual prosperity of the masses, we are
certainly ahead of the United States. Fol-
lowing is a comparative 'statement of the
railway mileage of the countries, comp iled
from recent official reports .—
In the United States there were added 2,-
630 miles of railway last year, an increase
less than two per cent, during the year, as'.
against 1,764 miles in Canada, equal to an
increase of 13 per cent. The number of
miles in operation at the close of 1893 was
in the United States 145,869 and 17,332 in
Canada. To have a mileage in proportion
to population equal to the railway mileage
in Canada;'the United States should be able
to show 35,0130 miles more than that country.
possesses, acoording to the official returns
quoted from, so that at. the present rate of
progress Ca nada is,comparatively speaking
15 years ahead of her neighbor in railway
development. This is only one comparison
of many which can be made to the advant-
age of this country. It is till verywell for
our neighbors to the south to boast of their
great achievements, but enterprise and
advancement on this continent does not

afflicted as I have been with nervous
prostration and indigestion. I found
very great relief from the very first

- also induced my wife to use it, who,
I must say, was completelyrun down

the stomach will not digest the food,
the liver becomes torpid, the kidneys'
will not act properly, the, heart and
lungs suffer, and in fact the whole
system becomes weakenedand sinks
on account of the lack of nerve force.
South American Nervine is based
on the foregoing scientific discovery
and is so prepared that it act
direotly on the nerve centres. It
immediately increases the nervous.
energy of the whole system, thereby
enabling the different organs of the
body to perform their work perfeotly, "
when disease at once disappears.
It greatly benefits in one day.
Mr. Solomon Bond, a member of
the Society of Friends, of Darlington,
Ind., writes: "I have used sig bottles
of South American Nervine and I
consider that every bottle did for me
one hundred dollars worth of good,
because I have not had a good
night's sleep for twenty years on
account of inOtation, pain, horrible
droaiils, and general nervous pros-
tration, which. has been caused by.
chronic indigestion and dyspepsia of

It is now a scientific fact that cer-
tain nerve centres located near the
base of the brain have entire control
over the stomach, liver, heart, lungs
and indeed all internal organs; that.
they furnish these organs with
the necessary nerve force to enable
them to perforin their respective
work. When the nerve centres are
