The Huron Expositor, 1885-10-30, Page 6- Engineeritt Remedy. My engineer was a grey-haired, thick - !set inan of fifty, quiet and unobtrusive, ! and deeply in love with hi a beautiful 4 machine. He had formerly driven a lo- comotive, and now took a stationary engine because he coald-get no employ- ment on the line, A long talk vrithi the superintendent of the railway i company from ti'ibirch he had been reMoved, re- vealed ]aly one fault in the man 8 past life; he loved strong drink. " He is," said my infortnant, as well acqncdnted with his work as any !plan on the line; he worked up from ;engine-eleaner to Btoker, from stoker to I !driver* - I has rendered us valuable ; ser - 'v -ices, and has saved many lives by his • quickness and bravery; but he cannot let drink alone, and for that reeson we !!have discharged him." In spite of this discouraging report I !engaged the man. During the first week II of his stay I passed through the engine - room malty times a day, in the course of my factory rounds, but never found, aught aniiss. The great. machine ran as !:amoothlyi and quietly as if its bearings were set in velvet; the steel erosa-head, • the crank -shaft, the brass oil cups, re - ,1 fiected the morning sen like mirrors ; no II.peck of dust found lodgment in the 'Ilroom. In the " fireroorn " the same Order and neatness prevailed; the steam -gauge showed even pressure, the • Water-guages were always just right, s and our daily report dieolosed that we !hwere burning less coal than fotmerly. Ole most critical inspection failed to find aniithing about either engine or Ii*idlers which indicated the faintest symptoms of neglect or carelessness. Three weeks passed. The man who livid been recommended as " gcod for five !days work and then two days' drunk," I itad not swerved a hair from ! his duty. The gossips were beginning to notice and comment upon the strange affair. "1 should like to speak With you a ;moment,- sir," said he one morning as I ipard through his sanctum. Well„ John, what nowt" I said, ,Idrawing out my ncite-book. "Cylinder :Ieil all gone?" " It's about myself," he replied. I motioned him to proceed. "Thirty-two years ago I drank my lfirst glass of liquor said the engineer, and for the past ten years, op to the aet mon-them) week hes page eitbeute Itts Saturday -night drinking bout. Dur- ing those years I..was not blind to the Ifact that appetite was getting a fright- - hold upon rae. At times my strug- gles against the longing for stimulants :Were earnest. My employers once 'offered rao twenty pounds if I would not Itouch drink for three months, but I lost it; I tried all sorts of antidotes, and all failed. My wife died praying that I plight be'reseued, yet my promises to her were broken within • two days. I isigned pledges, and joined societies, but appetite Was still any master. My em- ployers reasoned with me, discharged Me forgave me, but all to no object. I` pou'id not stop, and I knew it. I When I dame to work for you I did not expect •to stay a -week, I was—nearly done for; but resv,!"--and tie. old ratt's feet lislited op with an unspeakable joy -- "in this extremity, when I was ready to plunge into hell for a glass Of brandy, I found ‘a sere remedy ! I ara saved from my !appetite !" What is your remedy ?" The engineer took up an open Bible that lay face dawn on the window ledge, and read— • "DIE BLOOD OF JESUS CHMST AIS SON CLEANSETH US FROM ALL SIN." --11. C. P. A Bleak Home. On the map of Thelma(' may be seen a ispeek of eri Weed called Grimshy. It is the most northern., and consequently the • oldest, of the Iceland group. I Eighty- eight people—no more—live °III it. They have tried t& keep a few cows, but the Winters awe too hard for them. Two urges and a few sheep with very coarse eeces are the only animals of the kind ;on the Island. A good miniater, whose name in. Eng- ' lish is Peter Goodmanson, lives M this i.emote plaee. He is a poet and an as- tronomee, and is employed to take ob- tervationefor the Meteorological Insti- tute at Ocipeohagen. Once or twice a year sone of the Islanders visit the Mainland, but the storiny teas, covered with icebergs, make the passage always daneerus. On one side of the island, which is a high precipice, countless birds build 'their nests, and the collection of eggs is One chief means of living for the little tettlemerit. Men are let down over the Vitae of the rocks by ropes: They wear suits thickly wadded with feathers, to save themselves frora being hurt on the sharp rocks. Each man carries a pole to help himself with, and a ladle for scoop- ing up neats that he cannot reach with hLs hand. There is in his frock a great pocket in which he can put 150 eggs. There he works, with the sea roaring beneath him. Many accidents occuaan Many lives are Iost in this business.— Watchman. • On the Race -Course Sixty Years Ago. In the twenties, a well -knot n figure on all the Southern race-cours s was a notorious individual named Bill Canty, who, although he betted with he nobs, Was considered to be the king of the pickpockets. If any one he knew, how- ever, had his watch stolen, he would tindertake to get it back for him. On one occasion the famous Samuel George Ford, the great financier before Pad - wick came out, took down to Ascot with him in his pocket -book £7,000, Which sum he had promised to lend Massey Stanley. He offered it to him before the race began, but the other being Mich engaged asked him to keep -it until it was over. Ford had a horse called Quo Minna which was to run in the stake § e but after seein bhim saddled Ind bridted the crowd hail become so dense that he could net reach the grand Sjtand, and had to take up a position at the rails among the mob. : At the nish his horse ran in head and head with atiother, just then a little boy, seemingly in a great state of excitement, lumped upon hi shoulders and shouted, Quo Minus wins ! Quo Minus wins !" :!' Get`dawn, you young ratcai," cried Peed; but the boy clung mend his neck for a moment sayine, I can't ee down p` here—hurrah, Quo Minus is w'nning !" e then jumped off and disappear d. The oext moment Ford missed his pocket- book. It was gone and the r boy too. 'To complete his discomfiture Quo Minus lost, though only by about half :5. head. !While leoking about for the thief he Met Lord Cheetertield and told him —et what had happened. "Go and find Bill Cauty, hedge with him, and : I'll take odds that you get your pocket -book back," wasinty lord's advice. Ford lost no time it acting upon it, land .soon found the man he sought. "You have been had," said this new Jonathan Wild, before he could. speak. - " Yes ; and Lord Chesterfield told me to come to you;i can you db anything in it ?" in- quired Ford. "Well, you must give up the small whitebait fish, and give five of the long-tailed ones (meaning five one hundred pound notes,) and I will try and collar the remainder for you.," was the answer. Ford thought the black mail rather heavy, but knew it was that or nothing, and struck the bargain. Cauty then told him to go next morning to a certain pile of timbertnd in a , certain place, which he described, he would find his pocket -book. ket-book. Ford did as he was told, and there sure enough he found it with all its contents, minus the £500, just as it had been taken from him. William Cindy, not longafterwards, spite of his cieverness, fell into a trap laid! for him by a bank in St. James' street, was caught . making off with a small cash box loft purposely within his reach, was tried, transported and ended his career at Botany Bay. A Story With a M ral. the head clerk of a larg . firm in Charlestown promised an old. customer one day half a bale of Russian duck, to be on hand at one o'clock, hen the man was to leave town with his goods. The firm was out of duck, and the clerk went over to Boston to buy some. Not finding a trackman, he hired a man to take it over on his wheel -ban -Ow. Fin- ishing other business, on his return to Charlestown tbe clerk found the man not half way over the bridge, his barrow, hall dead with What was to be done? It itting on he heat. as then half -past twelve, and the goods were promised at one. There was not a moment to lose. In Spite-. of the heat, the dust, and fine clothes; the young manseized the wheelbarrow and pushed on. Pretty soon a rich merchant, w om the young man knew very well, ricling on horse -back, over -took him. What," said he, "Mr. Wilder ! turned truck - ma ?" Yes," answered the clerk; " tL goods aro prqmised at one o'clock, and my man has given out; but you see I am 'determined to be as good as my word." "Good, good i" said tiat the gentle- man, and started Calling store where the young man was employ- ed, he told his employer what he had seen: " And I want to tell --him," said the gentleman, "that when he ;goes into business for himself, my name is at his service for $30,000." Reaching the store, which he did in time,the high price set on his conduct .made Amends for the heat, anxiety and fatigue of the job. You would like to knowsperhaps, that this young man became` one of the most eminent merchants of his day, and was known far and wide,both in Europe and this conntry. His name is S. V. S. Wilder) the first President of the Ameriotin Tract Pociety. —Kind Words. News Notes. —Prince Alexander has issueii a sup- plemental note to the Powers, r which he assares them that Bulgaria defers entirely to their advice, and thanks them for thtir kindness in dealng with the questitta at issue. —Cardinal Newman, in an address in London on Friday, said that the Pro- testant church of England was the great bulwark of the country against atheism. dd that he and He saicliphe wished all success to those efendig the church, an his friends would join in defending it. Catclinal Newman's views are important in connection with . the forthcoming eleetioes for members of parliameht,. and they will be likely to influence many votes in favor of the Coneervative candidates. -e-More than a year ago Mrs, Nicholls, a inillionaire lady of Peterborough, -bought a property consisting of several acres of valuable land with a fine man- e li sion upin it. It is located just lwest of the tow on a beautiful site sloping to thea t. Having fitted it tias and furnished it as a hospital, she else en- • dowed it with $10,000; not to !Mention the first cost of about $13,000, and offered it as a free gift to the town and cminty of Peterborough. • It° was pro- poted.to make the hospital epee iils all residents; but its trustees shoeld con- sist of Protestants only. As it ! was to be supported by a general tax, I leading. ItoMan patholics objected to noiarepre- sentatioe on the- Board, and *ins Mrs. Nieholle' scheme could not be : carried out. Another proposal was submitted to the councils, which was accepted by them on the part of the Prptestant population :—That the property Ite , taken in trust by these corporations for the benefit of the Protestant portion of the people who alone shall he tahed for its support. The Local Legialatnre is to be requested to give effect to thit resolu- tion by passing a law enabling the cor- poeations to assess Protestants Only, for its support. The gift is a noble one, and mai y a grateful heart will cherish the me ory of the lady who has done so generou a deed. May it be said to her "1 was sick and ye visited me ri .- Catarrh—a New Treatnlen_t, i PerhapS the most extraordinary euCcess that has been achieved in modern medieine has been attained by the Dixon Treatment for Catarrh. Outt of 2,000 patients treated during the past six months, fully ninety percent, have be n cured of this stubborn malady. This is none the less startling when it is remembered that nn five per cent. of patients presenting- themselves to the regailar practitioner are benefitted, while the patent medicines and other advertised cures never recrd a cure at all. Starting vith the claim noel generally believed by the mo t scien- tifie men that the disease is due to the presence of living parasites in the tissue, Mr. 4 ixon at once adapted his cure to their exterm nation— ehis accomplished, he claims the Catarrl4 is prac- tically cured, and the permanency is un uestion- td, as cures effected by him four year ago are cures still. No one else has ever atte pted to ture Catarrh in this manner, and no oth I. treat • ment has ever cured Catarrh. The apPlication of the remedy is simple, and can be done at home, and the present season of the y ar is the the majority of cases being cured at ole treat - most favorable for a speedy and perman nt cure, mant. Sufferers should correspond with: Messrs. A. H.
