"Ralph Connor'sITerrible Indictment.
(London Advertiser.) .
Canadians of other provinces had
begun to ask whether there was any
public conscience in Manitoba, or
whether it has been hopelessly seared
by familiarity with the methods of the
Robin -Rogers machine. But it has re-
volted at last; the revelations following
the Macdonald by-elections have been
too much even for those who had be-
gun to accept crookedness in party pol-
itics as inevitable and incurable. The
clergy are often silent in the presence
of grave public abuses because a pro-
test exposes them to the charge part-
isanship, but the Presbyterian Synod,
meeting at Brandon the other day, evi-
dently felt that silence would be almost
scandalous in the circumstances. The
following resolution was moved byRev.
M. C. Rumball, of Morden, seconded
by Rev. Dr. Gordon ("Ralph Connor",)
of Winnipeg, and carried without a dis-
senting voice:
"Under a painful sence of duty,
this synod deeply deplores recent evi-
dence of the deliberate prostitution of
justice to personal or party ends, and
the trampling under foot the sacred
right of citizens to individual liberty
and fair trial."
Dr. Gordon said that the situation
that had recently arisen during the
Macdonald election was one of the grav-
est that had ever taken place in the
Dominion. He knew of no one instance
where such a cynical disregard of the
liberty of the subject was displayed as
in connection with that election. It
was a deliberate prostitution of the
courts of justice to serve pasty ends.
He was recently talking to an influent-
ial and consistent supporter of the Con-
servative party in Winnipeg, who de-
scribed the recent events as the most
iniquitous that had ever happened in
the history of the party. There were
two things in the British constitution
that had been bought with the blood of
those who had gone before -they were
the ballot box and the right of a fair
trial. But they had never such a thing
before where the courts of the land
bad been wickedly made to serve party
ends. Men had been arrested without
the shade of a suspicion of any crime
against them, and had been kept in the
cells for days, and made to eat prison
fare without any reason whatever.
For this indictment the famous author
is savagely abused by the organ of the
Robin -Rogers machine, the Winnipeg
Telegram. In virtually accusing Dr.
Gordon of insanity, the Telegram mere-
ly e'iows that it has taken lease of its
own sences. Every decent Conserva-
tive will be glad to know that the law
is on the track of men who have pro-
faned the altar of justice. Surely there
are some courts in Manitoba not owned
by the Government.
"There could be no better medicine
than Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.
My children were all sick with whoop-
ing cough. One of them was in bed,
had a high fever and was coughing up
blood. Our doctor gave them Cham-
berlain's Cough Remedy and the first
dose eased them, and three bottles cur-
ed them," says Mrs. R. A. Donaldson,
of Lexington, Miss. For sale by all
dealers.
The average woman knows more a-
bout some other woman than she knows
about herself.
Five years ago an Oklohoma farmer,
while visiting a friend several miles dis-
tant, picked up a couple of bagfuls of
cedar tree seeds and planted them on
his own farm. He secured about 5,000
young trees, and is now selling them at
about fifty cents a piece.
Suffered With Kidney Trouble
For Ten Years.
Those who have never been troubled
with kidney trouble do not know the
suffering and misef'y which those af-
flicted undergo.
Weak, lame or aching back comes from
the kidneys, and when the kidneys are
out of order the whole system becomes
deranged.
Doan's Kidney Pills go right to the seat
of the trouble, and make their action
retlular and natural.
Miss Mary Daley, Peanfield Ridge,
N.B., writes: -"I now take great plea -
Imre in expressing myself°tor the benefit
1 vivo
obtained from your wonderful
rr,.•riirine, 1/can's Kidney Pills. having
been a sufferer with kidney trouble for
n., iest ten years, and having spun hun-
ch.. ds of dollars in the so-called 'Quack'
err'4; from which I derived no benefit
ntever, and after having been advised
to try Doan's Kidney Pills, I at once
purchased tt box, and from the first ob.
gained relief, and after having taken five
hoses am now eompleteiv cured."
Doan's Kidney Pills are 50 cents per
bee, or three boxes for $1.25, et all
d'alere, or mailed direct on receipt of

When ordering specify "Doan's."
THE GIRL THAT CHEAPENS
HERSELF,
"Ile kissed me as a matter of course,"
the sweet-faced girl said, when she
was explaining why she was so familiar,
with a man who had no intention of
marrying her. "He said afterwards ;
that all the girls he had gone with had
let him, and they were all nice girls
too, just as nice ass. And he had taken
me out to the theatre and had shown I
me so much attention, and it had all
cost so much that when he put on that
surprised air, why I felt that I was `
it, the wrong."
There are young men, not too scru- ,
pulous, whom other girls have spoiled, I
who will kiss every pretty girl who will
allow it. They are base enough to im- i
ply that they should have seine such
return for whatever entertainment they
have offered. But a girl who can be
deceived or moved by that kind of atti- 1
tude has a vein of weakness in her.
Any young man worth marrying or
worth keeping as a friend will expect
from a girl to whom he offers some
social courtesy, nothing but the pleas-
ure of her society. The very fact that
he says other girls have permitted such
familiarities should put the girl on her
guard.
"But if I held out," protested the
girl, "he would not come again."
He would have come again; he would
have been piqued to think that here
was one girl with whom he could not
have his own way. And even if he had
not come again, it would be clear gain
to the girl, for she could have saved
herself up for some one worth while.
Any young man who speaks of "all the
girls he has gone with" is not a young
man who can be looked on as any kind
of a permanency, even from the stand-
point of friendship.
That girl held herself at too low an
estimate, 'not only to the young man
but to herself. A girl should have a
very strong respect for herself; this is
a different thing from conceit. She
should not be vain of her beauty or her
money or her popularity; but she should
be proud of her ideals. The ideal of
purity embraces much. It means purity
of thought, the casting out of all that
is mean or cruel, uncharitable or unre-
fined. And it should mean purity of
deed. The girl must never do anything
which she would be ashamed to have
the noblest men or women in the world
know about. - Maude Radford Warren
in Woman's World for August.
TAKE PLEASURE NOW; DON'T
WAIT.
Half the joy of life comes from get-
ting the good out of things as we go
along. Some of us are always putting
off our enjoyments. After a while we
expect to take a rest, see a friend or
read a book; but after a while never
comes. The good time we are looking
forward to lies as far ahead as ever.
All life is spent in meaning to overtake
it and enjoy it. Meanwhile we toil,
drudge and grow old, passing by with
unseeing eye the happiness we might
get out of every day.
Yes, every sordid, commonplace day
has its wealth of enjoyment for us, if
we only took the trouble to get it out.
There are the friends we love, and
who love us. If we stopped to think of
it, this consciousness would gladen life.
There is the beauty of the earth.
Did we only open our eyes to see it,
we should be made glad in spite of our-
selves. There are people who have
lived on earth thirty or forty years,
who could scarcely tell you the color of
the sky from their own observation.
They take it for granted it is blue be-
cause they hear so.
There are dozens of simple pleasures
we might enjoy. Ten minutes every
day with a fascinating book; an inex-
pensive little jaunt with our family, or
a congenial friend; fifteen minutes of
bright, intelligent conversation with the
home folks on some other subject than
the sorded details of making ends meet,
a few minutes in an art gallery, just to
look at one good picture -these are
some of the little everyday happiness
we might take, and don't, not because
we are too poor, but because we haven't
thought them worth while. We are too
busy aiming at some big, expensive
pleasure in the future.
We shall never enjoy life until we
learn to enjoy the little happiness of
every commonplace day as we go along.

The Abolition of War.
Toronto Star.
The world at presentis in the position
of a lawless mining camp of the old days.
In such a state of society, the most
peaceful citizen finds it necessary to
carry arms. Every man distrusts his
neighbor,
But although a peaceful citizen may
feel justified in arming himself under
this condition, he regards the condition,
as a nuisance, which he Constantly
strives to abolish. He does this in two
ways; first, by promoting good -will and
co-operation among good citizens; and
secondly, by substituting order for an-
archy, courts of law for the settlement
of disputes. and police to enforce the
settlement. This is not a millennial
dream, It has been done. It is the
eermal state of Society in civilized

LOCAL NEWS.
Mr W. Bradley has had the side of
his bakery brick"d up, which adds
greatly to the appearance of the same.
It is reported that a bazaar and con-
cert will'be given in Wingham on or
about December 10th, by the members
of the Young People's Guild at St. Paul's
Church.
The first sleighs of the season, from
the country, appeared on the streets of
Wingham on Monday last.
We understand that the Rev. W. H.
Watson has received and accepted a call
to the Woodstock Congregational
Church.
The anniversary services in connection
with the Methodist Church will be held
on Sunday, December llth, when Rev.
A. M. Phillips, of Toronto, will preach
morning and evening.
The following is taken from the Luck -
now Sentinel of last week: Chief Con-
stable Bullard, and Alex. Orr, of the
Park House, Wingham, spent Tuesday
night in the village.
The social given in the Congregation-
al church on Monday evening, by the
Y. P. S. C. E. was a grand success in
every particular. The attendance was
large and every one enjoyed themselves.

countries.
Those who hope for the abolition of
war say that what has been bone as be -
ween citizen and citizen in a civilized
country can be done as between nation
and nation in the world. This is not a
milienial dream. It has been accomplish-
ed as between Canada, or, if you like, be-
tween the British Empire and the
United States. It can be accomplished,
and will be accomplished, all over the
world. This was the opinion expressed,
not by Brght or Cobden, but by Sir
John A.Macdonald perhaps as good a
judge of practical statesmanship as the
Mail and Empire.
It is not pretended ;hat at the pre-
sent moment disarmament is possible:
but what is certain is that by steadily
working along the lines we have indi-
catec there will be a gradual reduction
of armaments to a police basis.
Keep Mouth Closed When Asleep.
If you sleep with the mouth open you
are sure to feel wretched when you wake,
for all night long you have been doing
yourself harm instead of good.
The air you breathe should reach your
lungs warmed and purified and moist-
ened; instead of that it has entered
them cold and harsh and germ -laden.
Can you wonder, then, that you wake
tired and unfreshed, that your throat is
sore and hoarse, or that the night was
made fearful by nightmares?
Mouth-brenthing means a poor com-
plexion, a seriously altered expression
of the face. and injured teeth. Many a
young girl, once she has come to real-
ize these facts, has cured herself in a
few weeks or months. An appeal to
her reasonable human vanity has accom-
plished speedily what years of nagging
might have failed to bring about.
In some cases the cure depends upon
the removal of mechanical obstructions
to proper breathing. If the whole nasal
cavity is filled with growths that only
the surgeon can deal with, breathing,
except through the mouth, becomes im-
possible. But when the mouth breather
has learned that the nasal passages are
not impeded, he must address himself
patiently to correcting his bad habit.
He must take breathing exercises at
regular intervals, and keep his mouth
firmly closed except while eating or
talking. To assist in breaking up the
habit during sleep, he will sometimes
find it a good plan to pass a light, ban-
dage under his chin and fasten it at
the top of his head, or to close his lips
with a little strip of surgeon's plaster.
When Hens Lay Eggs
The question as to what time in the
day a hen lays has puzzled poultry fan-
ciers for unnumbered decades, but
now, it seems, it has been satisfactor-
ily solved by a woman. She is Mrs.
Sarah Erickson, of England. Having
kept chickens for thirty-seven years,
she believes she qualifies as an expert
in this line of effort.
"I have worked out the problem,"
she declares. "By using marked leg -
bands, trap -nests, and alarm clocks at-
tached to the nests I have determined
that a hen lays an egg at the same
hour, minute and second that she was
born -or rather hatched. For instance,
if the hen happened to be able to peck
its way through the shell at 7.43 a.m.,
she will lay an egg precisely at '7.43
a.m. And she will do this without var-
iation every time she is inclined to lay.
I have kept close systematic watch on
my hens for flee years, and I have
over known the tole to fail.
Reflections of a Bachelor.
From the New York Press.
A heap of patriotism is just noise.
The more excuses, the more suspicion
they arouse.
It's the son who has to be supported
by his father that gives the old man
the most advice.
When a women has green eyes it's
a sign you can become her mortal en-
emy by not calling them blue.
When a man is a success he wouldn't
have been if he had followed all the
advice he got when he started out in
life.

Mark ix, 23 (R. V.) --Commentary
Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns.
For a little while heaven and earth
had touched In a new way, by those
who had once lived on earth, but had
been long absent from It, one by death
and one by translation, When the
risen and translated 'saints shall be
reigning with Christ in His kingdom
(Rev. v, 9, 10; xx, 4) this will probably
be the ordinary, everyday occurrence
everywhere, the New Jerusalem from
heaven and the ono ou earth in per-
fect accord, the glorified church and
redeemed Israel the heavenly and
earthly centers of His kingdom, when
a king shall reign in righteousness
and the work of righteousness shall
be peace and the nations shall learn
war no more (Ise. xxxii, 1, 17; ii, 4).
As the devil was in control at the
foot of the mountain when Jesus and
His disciples came down and the dis-
ciples there could not conouer him, so
It shall be when Jesus Christ shall
come in itis glory; then He shall bind
the strong man, whom the church can-
not cast out, and shut him up in the
pit and take control of his property,
for till then the whole world shall
continue in the wicked one as the
prince of this world. Let those who
would understand take the trouble to
ponder, with prayer and meekness and
submission to the word of God, the fol-
lowing passages. for It is all important
to understand this present age, its
ruler and his doom: I John v, 19, R.

Turning back from this faraway
look to the particular Incidents of the
lesson, we note that it is not in order
for us to continue too long in any place
of special privilege when Were Is work
to be done and people in distress need-
ing us at the foot of the hill. Special
times and places of special revelations
of Himself to us are to fit us to be bet-
ter witnesses unto Him with Increas-
ing victory over the world, the flesh
and the devil. If the prayer meeting,
the Bible class, the Bible conference
and such times and places of fellow-
ship
ellow
ship with Him do not enable us, in the
days following, to show more of His
presence and power In the home, the
place of business, the social life, where
is the benefit? People say, "I was so
blessed, I had such an uplift, it did
me so mach good." Well, thank God,
but now show it in your life and you
won't need to tell it. and. if your life
does not show it. better say nothing
about •it. The spirit through James
teaches us that faith that is mere
talk amounts to nothing; there must
be works corresponding to our faith
for the sake of those who do not
understand.
John says, "My little children, let
us not love in word, neither in tongue,
but in deed and In truth" (Jas. 11;
I John 1)11. The story of this demoniac
boy is written briefly in Matthew and
Luke, but most fully in Mark. Luke
tells us that he was an only child and
that when he was healed Jesus de-
livered him again to his father (Luke
ix, 38. 42). An only child given to
Jesus' hands is given back better than
when He received him, made perfectly
whole. He is the same yesterday, to-
day and forever, this same Jesus.
• Take in this scene as Well as you
can -a great multitude, a distressed fa-
ther,a sorely afflicted only child, some
disciples of Jesus truly saved who had
on other occasions wrought miracles,
but now are helpless. "They could not
cure him."
Did you ever see yourself, a true fol-
lower of Jesus, yet powerless to show
something of Him to those who know
Him not and unable to help those who
need help? Did you say from the
heart, "Why could not 1?" And did
you hear Him say, "Because of your
unbelief?" (Matt. xvii, 20.) And have
you been wondering since if you really
knew what It means to "have faith in
God?" Then what about the prayer
and fasting necessary In some cases?
Oh, how much there is to learn, and
how many seem to have a dumb,spirit
or an evil spirit of some kind, that
seems too often to control us.
"Bring him hither to me" is about
what Iie said concerning the bread
when TIP fed the thousands. "Come
unto me" is His cry to alt the weary
and heavy laden, and we may well
say. "Lord, to whom shall we go but
unto `Glee?" (Matt. xl. 28: John vl,
68.) This evil spirit .had long sought
to destroy this child, and now he made
a lest effort. The devil has always
been and still is n destroyer, a de-
vourer, a murderer. but the Lord is the
life giver, the deliverer. the Saviour.
Hear the father's cry. "If thou
const do anything!" His disciples
felt

o
C tie dol t
etker? People
wlio do not know the Lord judge HMI
by Ills followers. Are we bringing
Rim honor or reproach? Joins said
unto him, "If thou canat believe, all
things are possible to him that be-
Itevell)." (verse 23). "Lord, I believe,"
cried the father. Jesus rebuked the
spirit and cominiinded him to Come out rnfhim. Ere he did so he rent him sore I
and Tett him as one dead, tint he de-
parted out of him. Jesuit took him
by the hand and lifted him up. and
he nrose and was cured from that
very hour. Our Lord does not give
the sante bower to an. but to each one
severally as He tvili.
