110 OF THANKS.
ile thanking *the people of the
wet and, surrounding country for the
uragement they have given us in
way of 'very liberal patronage, we
ire too call their attention to a. few
_ poncerning our business methods
t generally known. It has been and
our constant endeavor to turn out
e very best class of work, and this
seemed in doing by using nothing
the choicest materials and emyloy-
none but skilled workmen.
While doing this, however, we wish
distinctly understood that the prices
d are much lower than those
tofore prevailing. This is account -
for by the fact, that doing a much
r business than our competitors,
are satisfied with much smaller
'ns. Machine made harness at
sny-pi-ice in dear, and when that is
pled with poor material, you can
end upon getting a harness that is
bsolutely worthless. We manufac-
the best harness from $10 1u.p to
-le obtained in the Province, and to in-
tending purchasers would extend a
earty invitation to call and see Mr.
otharles Aiteel, or tbe undersigned, on
premises, when their wants will be
siderately taken care of.

Mrs. Jerry Cartel', of near Trimble,
Tennessee, has just broken a rash vow
which she made over twelve months ago,
and. which she sorrowfully regrets having
ever made, says the St. Paul Dispatch.
About eighteen months ago Mre. Cartell
was Mies panny Bramney, a bea.utiftil
young lady of eighteen _years, and Jerry
Cartel' was her favored suitor. But, as is
generally the ease with 'young lovers, a
quarrel arose between them, and in the heat
of passion Mise Fannie angrily bade her
lover to leave her preeenee, and vowed be-
fore High Heaven she would never speak to
him again. The disconsolate lover took his
departure, but as he fairly worshipped the
girl -he ardently set out to. effect a recon --
ciliation. At last, in a.nswir to a pitiful
pleading letter, Miss Fannie penned him a
loving, forgiving message.
;Overjoyed * at the happy termination of
affairs, he hurried to the home of Miss
Fannie, Where be was received warmly and
affectionately, but without a word of wel-
come, Taking a tablet and pencil from the
desk, she began a written conversation; as
though she could not speak a word. Car-
tel' pleaded the uselessness and foolishness
of such proceedings, but in Vain, as his
sweetheart positivelj- refused to utter a
'word to him. She is very devout, a mem-
ber of the. Methodist church, and was firmly
impressed with the idea that if she would
break her rash vow God would punish her
by strikitig her dumb, when she could
speak to no one. She was constantly on
her guard for fear she might speak to her
lover, bringing this terrible visitation upon
her.
The courtship proceeded with pencil and.
paper for several mutt* when they were
joined together in the holy bonds of mat-
rimony. During their married life of a
year Mrs. Cartel' never spoke to ler hus-
band until some days ago.
Last Christmas Mr. Cartell made his wife
a present of a handsome and costly pair of
Armee. The other morning the husband
was bringing in an armful of wood and
struck one of the vases and knocked it to
the floor and broke it into a hundred differ-
ent pieces.
"Oh, Jerry, look what_ you have done !"
cried Mrs. Cartel'.
She was horribly shocked at speaking to
her husband, and believed that she had
been stricken dumb. To ascertain the cor-
rectness of her belief she spoke to him
again, and was overjoyed to discover that
her organs of speech had not been in the
least impaired.
• In the happiness of hearing iis wife
speak Jerry thanked God for the Ibreaking
of the vase.
Your Neighbors.
You have neighbors of some sort, either
pleasant or unpleasant, good or -bad, rich or
poor, kind and obliging or hateful and dis-
agreeable. Don't ju.dge them too harshly or
Idraw - your conclusions too quickly. You
think you know them. Yes, no doubt you
do. But how inneh do• you know of them- ;
how much of their own personal joys and
sorrows, how much of fondly cherished
hopes long since faded; of golden apples
turned. to ashes gre they touched the lips ; of
bright dreams that came to be only dreams,
or castles in the air ?1 How much do you
know?
What can you tell of their sorrows, their
sin or shame? • They will not "drag the
skeleton from the closet," and show its
ghastly, grinning face to even their nearest,
neighbor. They will not be likely to parade
their own faults before you, and they will
hide the weaknesses of those yon have no
interest in,
but who are dear to them, just
as you would your own. Some signs of
happiness you may have seen, but think not
you see the sun when only one small ray. has
appeared. They laugh and sing? Yes, cer-
tainly. But in how manyeeases the merry
laugh hides the aching heart! The Sone,
which to you sounds so joyous, may give
place to heart -breaking sobs when none are
near to hear. Idle .curiosity has no place
here, but it would be well for us all, instead
of being -so bound up in self, to take a little
more genuine interest in the inmates of the
" house across theway." '
Don't envy your neighbors. If they have
riches you may be sure added wealth brings
increase of cares, Would you change your
humble state for the greatest splendor, if
you could know their secret grief? Ah, no!
If their hotne is More beautiful than yours,
God and themselves alone know what passes
there; it may be a house of sin, of sorrow,
or of shame andcrime.
Don't get curious and cast sly glances.
You will never guess just right '• but be eon -
tented with your own lot and. believe God
knew best when He put you where you are.
These are old proverbs, but true neverthe-
less : "All is not gold that glitters,"
"Every rose has a, thorn," "Every heart
knoweth its own bitterness."
If your neighbors are not to your liking,
don't draw yourself into your shell like a
tortoise'but be friendly and &idol. , Lenda
helping hand. Remember if you could see
the inner lives, all might be explained.
"Am I my brother's keeper ?" It is an
old question; askedi first by Cain, but the
world has not done asking it yet. A desire
to escape responsibility and live for one's
self is abroad. It cannot be done. The old
law, No man liveth to himself alone" has
net failed yet. We are creatures of influ:
ence, helped or hindered by_each other. ,
Do your best to have charity. Learn to
be merciful and helpful, and some one will
call you blessedee, Don't make your circle
too select and to small, but stretch it out
mita none are left out in the cold, friendless
andaforsaken. Let not one in your neigh-
bor's house go to destruction, because their
neighbor took no interest. Were you too
"select," "high-toned," or selfish to reach
out a strong, friendly hand?

e --A: sad accident, which resulted in the
death of Mr. Archie Campbell, son of the
late 'William Campbell, of Molesworth,
oc-
curred at Glenboro, Manitoba, on Moday,
5th inst. He went eat to the stable after
supper to look after bis horses, and as he
entered one of the stalls in the dark, he re-
ceived a heavy kick from one of the horses
below the stomach. He lingered till- death
came to his relief on Thursday morning.
His remains were brought home to Moles-
worth for linnet, by his brother' William,
who owns a neighboring farm atGlenboro.
The deceased has lived about five years in
Manitoba and. was unmarried. He wae en-
gaged to a young lady in Molesworth whom
he eepected sho7rtly to take out to share his
home in the west, a circumstance which
adds to the sorrow of his untimely death.'
He was in his thirty -fifty year and had ac-
quired a good property at Glenboro.
—The.case of Henry Oakley Smith, who
comniitted suicide at the Leland hotel,
Winnipeg'on Sunda,y, 18th inst., is a very
sad one. He was a member of one of the
first English families, and closely connected
with English society. Ten years ago he
met Kitty Fortescrte, the actress, and later
married her. The match proved an ill -
mated one, and five years ago, at
the time of the scandal attached to
the actress' name; Smith left Eng-
land, intending to remain . in Manitoba, for
swen years. The seven years' residence
there would enable him to obtain in.Enk4land.
a divorce for desertion. To make sure that
his wife would not follow him he lived most
of the time in a,little place, isolated on the
prairie. He was without means, for he was
too proud to apply for assistance from his
family, but managed to make a scant liveli-
hood in various ways, doing a little farming.
A. few months ago, however; lds circum-
stances became so desperate that he over -
carne his pride and wrote home. In dile
time a letter was received from his father's
lawyer, stating that assistance would short-
ly be sent him. He came to Winnipeg to
receive the money; but, ,on finding that it
amounted only to £5, his disappointment
was more than he could hear. He felt that
his friendifhad cast him off, and he was un-
used to work. His life was ruined by a
vain and foolish woman, and he ended it
with a pistol.

, Billi Had a Bully Time.
Mme. De Billi, wife of the Danish ambas-
10,dor to the Court of St. James, is .an
American by birth. Her father was Chan-
cellor Zabriskie, of New Jersey, and before
her marriage she was noted, not only for her
beauty, but for her vivacity and wit. Many
stories illustrating her love of fun are told
of her. -One of them relates to her *first
meeting with her husband. It was at a
great reception'at the close of which Mr.
De Billi, who had been in the country only
a short time, came up to her, and asked her
what was the Conventionally proper thing
for him to say to his hostess on bidding her
adieu. With a perfectly sober face, though
her eyes sparkled. with merriment, she re-
plied that in this democratic land, the only
ptoper thing to say was : "Madame, by
golly, I heve had a bully time." Believing
that thisetvas a "straight tip," he thus de-
livered .himself.. The only' chronicles of
Jersey City say that when he first discover-
edthe joke he was furious, but his fury was
short-lived, and he married the beautiful,
but mischievous girl.—New York Tribune.
Canadian Progress.
About thirty years ago, a young man—
now the Rev. A. B. Simpson,- D. D., of New
York, was ordained pastor of Knox- church,
the oldest Presbyterian church in Hamilton.
After nine years.of useful service—like the
Rev. Dr. Ormiston, who was called from
Hamilton to become pastor of the largest
Dutch Reformed church in New York—Mr.
Simpson went abroad; and became pastor of
Presbyterian church in Louisville, Ken-
tucky, where he was so successful that he
was called "the Talmage of Louisville." In
course of time he became pastor of the
Fourteenth Street Presbyterian church, New
York, but lost his health arid resigned, be-
ing followed in that charge by another Can-
adian, the Rev. Dr. F. H. Marling, of Tor-
onto. As soon as his health was restored
Dr. Simpson began the movement called the
Christian Alliance, which is simply a reviv-
al of primitive Christian zeal, consecration
and liberality. With. it the Rev. Dr. Henry
Wilson, formerly of this city, is now iden-
tified. At Old Orchard Beach, where its
summer gatherings are held, as much as
$60,00C has been contributed towards the
foreign missions in one day ; and a similar
scene was enacted at the Gospel Taber-
nacle, in Eighth avenue, New York, the
other night. ,
Dr. Simpson recently revisited Hamilton,
on the occasion of the dedication of a new
Sunday -school building in connection with
the church of which he was once pastor, and
found "the old church" in most pros-
perous condition," with a membership of
over one thousand. The new Sunday -school
building; he says, is the most complete he
has ever seen, with ample accommodation
for at least one thousand persons. The
present pastor, Dr. Mungo Fraser, is an old
classmate of his own. '4 There are seven or
eight Presbyterian churches in Hamilton
uow, and they all seem to be prospering."
Everywhere he saw signs of both spiritual
and material advancement. He writes:
"We could not help thinking of the wide
world and the changes which have taken
- place in these years. Canada has become
an independent nation, one of the most itn-
portant young nations of the century. Her
robust national. character roay well be ex-
pressed in the first syllable of her name—
can." Every Canadian one meets seems
to say in his very face and manner ; 'I can."
They have already grown to be a people five

STOVES.
Desserts Without Fruit. -
Our Dakota housekeeper asked for recipes
or suggestions for desserts suitable for a
fruitless land. The cook's resource under
such conditions must be to the large family
of puddings. , Tapioca is very nice and not
expensive, and though one gets tired of both
it and rice if encountered, too frequently,
both are agreeable as a change.
A nice tapioca-- pudding is made in this
manlier: Soak a cup of tapioca over night
in warm water. Next day take a quart of
milk, stir into it four Well beaten yolks of
eggs; hall or two-thirds of a cup of sugar
and half a teespoOnful of salt; add the
tapioca, put in a double boiler and stir con-
stantly till it creams'. Beat the whites of
the eggs to a froth and stir into the mix-
ture when you remove it from the fire.
Serve -To vary it cook three table-
spoonfuls of dessicated cocoanut with the
tapioca.
To cook tapioca, soak a half cupful in a
pint of water over night. Add sufficient
boiling water to keep it from burning, ttnd a
little salt. 'Simmer it slowly tin it is clear,
then stir in a couple of tablespoonfuls of
sugar. Eat with cream. If you have fruit,
peaches, apples, bananas, etc., put a layer
of sliced fruit, then more tapioca and 80 on
till the dish is full. Bake till clear and
serve with cream. Unless the fruit is very
mellow and tender, it is best to steam it
firs.
A rice and tapioca pudding requires three
tablespoonfuls of rice; two of tapioca; four
tablespoonfuls of sugar; a little grated nut -
'meg and a quart of milk. This is to be
baked three or four hours in a slow oven,
stirring occasionally..
A boiled Indian podding, is a good change.
Beat two eggs, add them to a cup and a half
of sour milk, after dissolving a small tea-
spoonful of saleratus in the milk. Then
stir in cornmeal till a little thicker than
batter for griddle -cakes, add a cup of dried
cherries or currants; pour into a floured
pudding bag and boil an hour. Cream is
nice with this; or a sauce made of the yolks
of two eggs beaten and stirred with a cup
of sugar into a half pint of sweet cream.
For a steamed bread pudding chop fine
hell- a pound of nice beef suet; two cups of
bread crumbs; three beaten eggs; a cup of
sugar and a cup of niilk • one tablespoonful
of cinnamon; _one eablespoonful each
of cloves and allspice one • cup seeded
and chopped. raisins. gteant three home in
a covered mould which you have buttered
well. This will keep a long time, and can
be re -heated when • wanted. Cream or - a
hard sauce may be served with It.
A cheap and quickly made pudding calls
for two eggs, a pint of milk, a tablespoon-
ful of sugar, half a teaspoonful of salt and
flour to make a stiff batter in which you
have sifted a teaspoonful of baking powder.
Bake in gem pans ana serve hot with hard
sauce.—Michigan Farmer.

The Carpet Beetle. -
All the year round, in well -heated houses,
but more frequently in summer and fall, ac-
tive brown larva, a quarter of an inch or
less in length and clothed with stiff brown
hairs, which are longer around the sides and
still longer at the ends than on the back,
feeds upon carpets and woollen goods, work-
ing in a hidden manner from the under sur-
fae.e, sometimes making irregular Wes, but
mote frequently following the line of a floor
'crack and cutting long slits in a carpet.
The adult insect is a minute, broad, oval
beetle, about three -sixteenths of an inch
long, black in color, but is covered with ex-
ceedingly minute scales, Which give it. a
marbled black and white appearance. It
also has a red stripe down the middle of
the back, widening into projections at three
intervals. When disturbed it "plays 'pos-
sum," folding up its legs and antermw and
feigning death. „.

possession of a house, nothing but the Most

A Terrible Experience.
Mr. George Tribe. cf Straffordville, Ontario, a
pretty village near the shores of 14 Ike Erie, went
through an expetit nce lately that he will never for-
get. He tells it in his own words:
Far three years I suffered from skin disease in its
worst form. I tiied Kennedy's Medical Discovery
and the Cuticura remedies, aud doctored one year
with the best thysiciens in the and, but got no bane._

but failed to remove it. It came on in red blotches
