Strang, who has past his fourscore years and who has enjoyed remarkable vigor and vitality is sonre- wbatindisposed this Week the result of a fall. Monday morning Mr. Strang bad been down street as was his wont and in returning home about mid-day, a short distance north of the Metho- dist church he was suddenly seized with a dizzy spell, when he toppled over against the fence, regaining his balance only to fall again and this time more heavily on the granolithic pavement. In the fall he sustained a slight cut above the nose and on the cheek. His escape from a more seri- ous hurt is a cause of thankfulness by his many friends. The wantof an authentic map of. our own Dominion of Canada was never so much felt as during the pre- sent session a t Ottawa,when the Grand Trunk Pacific bill was being discussed. Few homes, business offices or schools have such a thing. The publishers of the Family Herald and Weekly Star of Montreal, always alive to such emergences, at once saw their oppor- tunity and have engraved a most com- plete and up -to date map of the Dom- inion, with an enlarged map of this province as well, It is a new Quick Reference Map, and is all that the name implies. The map is only one of three valuable premiums given this year to all who subscribe to that pop- ular paper. The two others are pic- •tures entitled ' "Heart broken" and "Hard to Chose" and are, without ex- aggeration, the most delightful sub- jects ever selected as newspaper prem Miss Jessie Robertson, of Goderich,: iums.

BODY RECOVERED, — 1n our last issue we made mention of the suppos- ed drowning in Dake Winnipeg, in the storm of Sept. 12, of Rev. James James A. McLaughlin, Methodist Mis- sionary at Berens River. A telegram has been received at Toronto Mission Rooms of the finding of his body as well as six of the Indian children he was accompaning to Brandon Indus- trial ,School. Mr McLaughlin was well known to many here. He was about 50 years of age , and leaves a wife and child at Berens River. ANNIVERSARY SERVICES. — Last Sunday successful anniversary service were held in Caven Presbyterian :church. The weather being very fav- `orable, large congregations were pre- Iseet at both services and were highly /delighted and instructed by the clear ;cut and polished sermons ot the Rev. ;Prof. Ballantyne, of Knox College, Toronto. Although his text in the morning was the familiar one "Bv to -race are ye Saved," yet he imparted ;fresh thought to the old question"Are Wen Saved by Grace or Culture?" In rthe evening the text was 1 .Tno. 2; 15 "Love not the World" and although the question as to the Christian's re- lation to the world has been much 'discussed privately as well es public- ly Prof. Ballantyne held the close attention of a large audience to the close of a forty minute sermon. The offering amounted to $150 WEATHER FORECASTS. — For the coming week Rev. Irl Hick's forecasts are as follows: — A sweeping high barometer and stiff gales from the northwest, triaging frost to freezing northward. ars quite probable toward the end of the above disturbances; but the regular storm period, running from the 6th to lith, may so prolong storm conditions from about the 5th, as to retard the high barometer and change to colder, until after the cul- mination of the regular storm period central on the 9th. It may be count- ed on as a certainty that general aut- umnal storms, with marked change to colder following, will visit most parts of the country at one or each of the storm periods named above and covering the first 12 days of October. Look for early and heavy sleet north- ward. The 14th, 15th and 16th are reactionary storm days, on which there will come a progressive change to warmer, wish failing barometer, growing cloudiness, rain, and possi- ble snow in the north and west, SALE REGISTER Parties getting their sale bills print- ed at this office will receive a FREE NOTICE under this heading until da0 of sale.

FROM MUNICH TO LUCERNE A holiday trip taken by Mr. John D. Spackman, son of Mr. E. J. Spark- man of our town, who is now in Ger- many studying music under some of the great masters. MUNICH, BAVARIA, Sept 20th, On Sunday, July 12th, I left Munich and travelling all evening arrived in Lindan at 11.30 p.m. The first glimpse I got of the place filled me with ad- miration, the moon was shining brightly, casting her silver rays upon the lake showing up in sharp outline, the stone column with its lion on the top that guards the entrance at the harbor. The little hotel I stay- ed the night at, was pleasantly situat- ed and overlooked the harbor. After a good night's rest I left the Bavarian domains and crossing the lake, in a small but excellent steamer, reached Romanshorn shortly after luuch then took train to Zurich. On leaving the depot my first impression was I had come to some beautiful city, so grand and majestic did the streets, that met my gaze, appear to roe. The lake dotted with pretty villas and well kept gardens, makes it one of the most picturesque spots one can imag- ine. I should have Liked to have lin- gered longer in this ideal place but on account of railroad complications I had to hasten to Lucerne. After 3 hours travelling I arrived at the most popular summer -resort of the whole of Switzerland. 'Tis most cosmopoli- tan and at a glance one can easily understand why it is such a favorite resort and why it is so much patroniz- ed by Americans. One hears Eng- lish at every turn, in fact every third pian one meets is Swiss, the other two are Americans, and a fellow feels quite at home (Please pass the brown bread,) The bathing, boating and fishing are excellent and for about a dollar and a half a person can secure first- rate board and lodging. The inhabi- tants are both genial and amiable and try to oblige cne in every way, thus furthering their own interests. The excursions are numerous either by land or water and should the weather become too hot, one can find one'self, in the space of 30 minutes at an altitude of 2000 ft. above the level of the sea. These funicular rail- ways abound in these parts and at the terminus one always finds good inns where the accommodation is ex- cellent. But when it rains, it rains, and after two weeks continuous de- luge like 1 experienced it, one appre- ciates a sunny day, The first fine day after the aforesaid two weeks deluge, I took a trip to Sonnenberg, over 2000 flt. above Lucerne, The panorama that meets the eye from this altitude, is simply grandiose. The Casins(or gamb- ling house) where there is a first class restaurant is the place where the smart set of Lucerene do congregate. Fashionably dressed and pretty wom- en, well groomed men, are to be seen either promenading, listening to the band, or risking thein money at"Pelits Chereux," a species of gambling game that is much in vogue here. The Rigi and Pilatus are ton well known for me to describe them (for more detailed information see Mark Twain's "A Tramp Abroad.") I cannot close this short description without mentioning the Cathedral, which has one of the finest organs in the world, and on a hot and sunny day, to sit in the cool and quiet build- ing, and hear the deep toned notes is a privilege not easily to be forgotten. In conclusion, it is my desire (before sending this across the blue) to wish all my friends hearty greetings for there is no place like home. JDIXON SPACEMAN. NO.
