A despatch, from Montreal, says: -
Owing to the large grain crop in the -
North-West and Manitoba the Cana-
dian Paoffic Railway Company have
this season made arrangements for rol-
ling stock with a oapacityof some two
hundred thousand bushels greater
than the trolling stock used last sea-
son, to carry grain from the West.
Last season the company used some-
thing like 4,500 box ears in carrying
east the grain crop of that year. This
season they have added to their equip-
ment for this purpose 2,000 new thirty -
ton oars, which were constructed in
the oar shops at Perth during the past
Summar.
These cars have a capacity of some-
thing like one tnousand bushels of
grain each. Of this complement of 6,-
500 oars which it is proposed to use
in moving the year's crop, some 5,500
empty cars have already peen trans-
ferred to the Western division of the
road, and are ready tor immediate use.
The locomotive power for this addi-
tional rolling stock will be taken from
the other divisions of the road, with
the exception of a few new locomotives
which have been built in anticipation
of the extraordinarily largo traffic ex-
pected in handling the crop this sea-
ecn.

STRUCK WITH ALL SAIL SET.
About five o'clock the party started
to return home, with a strong wind
blowing from the north. The breeze
freshened until it assamed the propor-
tions of a gale, and heavy squalls fol-
lowed one after the other in quick suc-
cession. It was .one of the most clan-
gorous sailing days •that has been ex-
perienced here for soma time, and when
the boat was in a most dangerous part
of the eastern channel a tremendous
gust of wind stauck them with all sail
set, and tore this mast from its pocket.
A second gust -'forced the heavy tim-
ber back, and striking, knocked a gap-
ing hole through the bottom.
ONLY .LOUT% WERE SAVED,
In a moment the party, were face to
face with death, and the twelve were
battling for their lives. Poole and
Jude, who are both excellent swim-
mers, caught Bertha and Louise
Davision in their arms and started for
shore. The others were left to their
fate. Mrs. Davision was the first to
disappear beneath the waves, and one
after the other her companions follow-
ed her. For nearly a quarter of an
hour the brave offlears fought against
terrible odds, and were at length pick-
ed up by a passing steamer. The wo-
men werealmost dead, and it was only
after careful medical attention that
they were resuscitated.
The news was telephoned to the -city,
and Mayor Hamilton at once detailed
a squad of policemen to proceed to the
scene of the disaster and endeavored to
recover the bodies. At 10,80 p.m., the
body of Alice Davision was brought to
the surface.
of the lumps. Probably the candlestick
as seen in the vision was very large.
It may be taken as the type of the
Church of God, It was made of the
cnslliest materials. In its parts it was
diverse and yet equal. Its purpose
was to give light, bull it was not the
light in itself, only the bearer of the
light, and 11 needed often to be re-
plenished and trimmed afresh. Two
olive trues by it. The oil burned for
light in ancient times was pressed from
olives. In this vision the trees grew
up close to the candlestick, as an indi-
cation that the course of replenishment
is at hand and inexhaustible; a sym-
bol that the supply of power does not
come through human ministrations,
but directly from on high, from the
great God.
4. What are these, my lord? The
divine teachings are not always under-
stood, even by inspired men. It is
wise to ask questions.
5. Knowest thou not. The angel
seems to be surprised that the prophet
did not understand the symbolism.
Even to -day heavenly powers must
think it strange that we are not able
to read the signs of God's providence.
Doubtless much of the vision was plain
to Zerubbabel, but there was depths
in it that required angelic revelation.
No, my lord. We should never be
ashamed to acknowledge our ignor-
ance of the divine mysteries if we
would receive instruction ooneerning
them.
0. This is the word of the Lord. Here
is a message of plain words; can you
understand it? But before we study
this word of the Lord let us back up-
on the symbolism of the candlestick.
The Jewish nation was the candlestick
of the world, set in its plane to *bed
abroad the light of the world. The
Christian Church is the candlestick of
Christ. We are to let our light shine.
The sources of supply near the an-
afent Jews are nearer us. The Holy
Spirit flows through our hearts as
the oil to the lamps. "My God is
able to supply all your needs accord-
ing to his riches in glory by Christ
Jesus." Not by might nor by power.
Neither the Persian monarch, nor the
governor descended from David, nor
the high priest, nor the aggregated
wealth or the little nation can do this
thing. No earthly power is sufficient
for the task. What good would a
lama be without Dill Even though the
temple be as beautiful as a candlestick
made of pure gold, it will shed no light
into the dark places of the earth with-
out the oil of my Spirit, saith the
Loral of hosts.

and I finally tried that. On the first
day of its use I began to feel that it
was doing what no other medicine
had done. The first dose relieved 02
distress completely. Before night I
actually felt hungry and ate with an
appetite such as I had not known for
months. I began to pick up in
strength with surprising rapidity,
slept well nights, and before I knew
it I was eating three square meals
regularly every day, with as much
relish as ever. I have no hesitation
whatever in saying that the South
American Nervine Tonic cured me
when all other remedies failed. I
have recovered my old weight -over
200 pounds -and never felt better
in my life."
Mr. Frank Bauer's experience is
that of all others who have used the
South American Nervine Tonle. Its
instantaneous action in relieving die -
tress and pain is due to the direct
effect of this great remedy upon the
nerve centres, whose fagged vitality
is energized instantly by the very first
dose. It is a great, a wondrous curs
for all nervous diseases, as well as
indigestion and dyspepsia. It goes
to the real source of trouble direct,
and the sick always feel its marvel-
lous sustaining and restorative power
