Zurich.
GENERAL NOTES.—The appearance of eur i
little burg bag been greatly mproved by its
much needed walk*, etc.—Arbor Day seems
to have been a busy day at the hill of
science and despite the fact that the beauty
of the school 'yard was considerably destroy-
ed by the magnificent trees in front being
cut down by the ruthless band of one of our
citizens, our dauntless teachers took up the
task of improving ita appearanee hist Fri-
day. New flower beds were laid out with
the most eareful precision and sublime taste
by the- gentler half of the esteemed staff;
while Mr. Hagan, the principal* brought
trees to in some manner take the place of
those, that once flourished and were always
the pride and joy of the pupils, but alas that
was impossible we regret to soy. However;
the surroundings of our institution of learn-
ing were beautified to a considerable degree.

NOTES. -a -The masons are at present laying
the foundation for Mr. John Ferguson's new
house, which, no doubt, .will be a large and
beautiful mansion when finished.—Some of
the farmers around here are through seed-
ing, while others are just nicely started.
The weather having been eio backward,many
were delayed with their work.—Quite a re-
freshing ahower on Sunday; everything
looks fresh and green since.—We are sorry
that Messrs. Gibson and Sanders, who have
been doing such a successful business in
Fordvvich mill, intend to leave on the lst
of June foe Wroxeter, where they have se-
cured the oatmeal mill. We might say,
since the boys came to Fordwich, the mill
has been ram properly. They have gained
nearly all the custom for a distance of 12 or
14 railesd—Guess the teachers ought to
watch out? The ratepayers of one of our
schools discharged a young teacher, on ac-
count of his being under 18 years of age.—
Mr. and Miss Shiite visited friends in
Guelph and St. Thomas last week.—Mr.
Adam Reidt has lately purchased a new
wind -mill, which he has on his barn. By it

A Sad Sequel.
A paragraph appeared in last week's 'issue
to the effect that a young lady in Berlin,
named Peterson, a highly accomplished and
popular resident of that town, and the
daughter of a leading citizen,had committed
suicide. The reason for her rash act has
now come to the surface, and fornia a sad
sequel to the sad event. A despatci from
Berlin says "It was very corhmonly
known that Miss Peterson was ngaged
to be married to a young Methodist
minister named. J. A. Ziegler, who re-
ceived his education at McGill University,
Montreal. He was a native of Berlin, and
was taken up by some philanthropically in-
clined members of the Methodist church in
Berlin, and put through college, the object
beieg for him to qualify as a missionary to
China or Japan. He failed to pass his ex-
aminations at McGill last summer, and was
appointed probationally to Kingsley, a lit-
tle village near Brantford, where he has
preached for the past six months or so. Dr.
Bowlby now says that the morning of her
death Miss peterson came to him and said
that under promise of marriage she had
been betrayed by Ziegler. Then she was in
an agony of mind regarding her future, and
she must have taken her life immediately
afterwards. A telegram was sent to Zieg-
ler, telling him of alias Peterson's death.
He telephoned he could clear himself of all
blame, and that he would come to Berlin at
once. It is now said that he did come to
Berlin, but that he left at night, and is now
in Buffalo. Zeigler's relatives are highly re-
spectable, as are those of the dead girl, and
the shocking tragedy has caused widespread
regret and indignation, the latter because
letters have been found showing that the
young man bad refused to marry the' girl
whom he had wronged."

Death of Mrs. Pritchard.
The following, which we take from the
Forest Free Press of bast week, will be read
with melancholy interest by many of our
readers in this county: "A cloud of sor-
row has been cast over the Presbyterians of
Forest and vicinity this week, by the death
of the beloved wife of their much esteemed
pastor, Rev. James Pritchard. The sad
event took place at the manse on Monday
night, after an illness extendiag over a
period of nearly two years, during which
time all that science could devise and loving
friends could suggest was done to avert the
fatal blow, but DivintWiedom had ordain-
ed otherwise, and human aid and love were
alike expended in vain. Mrs. Pritchard's
illness commenced shortly after the death of
her mother, which occurred in February,i
1896, and at first appeared to be only an at-
tack of malaria, but she continued to grow
worse during last summer, and a part of the
fall and winter was spent at Port Huron,
where he took mineral baths, which for a
time seemed to benefit her, but the good re-
sults were not permanent. A couple of
weeks ago she began to sink rapidly and_ to
suffer more, and the discease assumed a
more acute stage. On Monday morning the
change for the worst was so apparent that
her demise was hourly looked for all day,
so that the sad news of her death at mid-
night was not altogether unexpected when
it passed from friend to friend on Tuesday
morning. Mrs. Pritchard, whose maiden
name was Christina McCrostie,was a daugh-
ter of Mr. John McCrostie, of St. Helens,
Huron county, where she was born a little
over thirty-nine years ago. In 1879 she
was married to Mr. Pritchard, who was then
in charge of the Presbyterian church at
Manchester. In 1886 the call to Forest was
accepted, and since that time they have
made their_ home here. Mrs. Pritchard was
in every respect a model minister's wife,
and was an energetic and able helpmate to
her husband in the labor of love to which
his life is devoted as well as in the narrower
circle of domestic affairs. Until recently
she was president of the Ladies' Aid So-
ciety, and much of the successful results

Charity of Speech.
Charity of speech is as divine a thing as
charity of action. To judge no one harsh-
ly, to misconceive no man's motives, to be-
lieve things are as they seem to be until
they are proved otherwise, to temper judg-
ment with mercy—surely this is quite as
good as to build churches, establish asylums
and found colleges.
Unkind words do is much harm as unkind
deeds. Many a heart has been wounded be-
yond cure, many a reputation has been
stabbed to death by a few little words,
There is charity which consists in withold-
ing words, in keeping back judgments, in
abstaining from speech, if to speak is to
condemn.
Such charity bears the tale of slander, but
does not repeat it ; listens in silence, but
forbears comment, then locks the unpleasant
part up in the depths of his heart, Silence
can still rumor ; it is speech that keeps a
story alive, and lends it vigor.—Humane

HARD STUDY IN SCHOOL
BRINGS ON A SEV LEE ATTACK OF ST. VITUS'
DANCE.
A Young Giel'S Life for a Time Made Mis-
erable=(aould not Use her Hands and
Found it Difficult to Walk—Health
Restored. if
From the Napanee Express.
Nervousness is the frequent cause of much
misery and suffering. One of the effects of
this breaking up of the nerves, particularly
among young people, being chorea or St.
Vitus' dance. A correspondent tells of a
young lady at Selby who was badly afflict-.
ed with this trouble. He says "1 never
saw anyone suffering so badly from nervous
disorder. She was violently jerking and
twitching all the time, and could not use
her right hand at all. Anything she would
try to pick up with it would instantly fall.
When she would attempt to walk, her limbs
would twist and turn, the ankle often
doubling dowa and throwing her. Lately I
heard that she had been cured, but doubted
the truth of the statement and went out to
see her. The statement proved quite true,
and believing that a recital of the facts of
the case would be of advantage to some one
who mighe be similarly suffering, I asked
permission to make uhem known, which was
readily granted. The young lady is Miss
H. M. Gonyou, a general favorite among
her acquaintances, and it is thought that
her trouble as is not infrequently the 'case,
was brought on by hard study in school."
Miss Gonyou gave the following statement:
"All through the fall of 1894 I had been
feeling unwell. I did not speak to anyone
about it, for I was going to school and was
afraid if I said anything about it to my pa-
ents they would keep me at home. I kept
getting worse, and at last grew so nervous
that I could not hold my pencil. My right
side was affected most, though the trouble
seemed to go through my whole system. In
January I was so bad that I had to discon-
tinue going to school, and I was constantly
growing worse. I could not use my hands,
because I would let everything =drop, and
frequently when I attempted to walk, I
would fall. My brother had been ailing for
a Ieng time and was then using Dr. Wil-
liams Pink Pills and getting better, so I
thought as they were helping him so much
they would be a good medicine for me. Be-
fore the first box was done, I was feeling
much better, and after using the Pink Pills
for about a month, my health was fully re-
stored. It is now more than a year since I
discontinued the use of the pills, and I
have not had the slightest trace of the
malady since. I am satisfied Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills saved me from a life of misery,
and I would strongly recetnmend them for
nervous troubles."
Dr. •Williamin Pink Pills create new blood
build up the nerves, and thus drive disease
from the system. In hundreds of cages
they have -cured after all other medicines
had failed, thus establishing the elaim that
they are a marvel among the triumphs of
modern me'dical science. The genuine Pink
Pills are toId only in boxes, bearing the full
trade mark, "Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for
Pale People." Protect yourself from impo-
sition by refusing any pill that does not

A Kind Heart.
It was a bright morning early in suminer.
Ex -Mayor Sichel descended the brown -stone
'steps of his Mansion, on an up -town square,
and started down - the street toward hill of-
fice. As he walked slowly along he noticed
in front of him a very pretty. young
She was dressed according to the latest
fashion, and went tripping along witht her
head held high in the air, in a mannee be-
fitting a young queen. As the venerable ex -
mayor looked at her fine array and watahed -
her top -lofty manner, he could not but won-
der if she took as much pains with thsi in-
ward adornment of her heart, as shei did
with the outward decoration of her body.
Presently an old man came up the stlreet
pushing a wheelbarrow. Just before he
t
reached the young lady he made twr at-
empts to get into the yard of a small
house, but each time he failed ; the gate
would swing back before he could' get
through with the wheelbarrow.
"Wait a moment," said our stylish nitiss :
"P11 held the gate open." And areaehing
out a hand incased in a pearl -colored glove,
she held the gate until the old mana and his
wheelbarrow had passed in. Then! she
nodded and smiled in response to his
thanks, while our ex -mayor thought that
her handsome clothes were not a bit too fine
for a body that .carried such a healthful
spirit.
•
Self-Confldence.
John Bright once said of Gladstone: "He
is an honest man; he believes what he says.
The worst of it is that he too readily be-
lieves what he wishes to believe." To a
question whether that was not something
like self-deceite Mr. Bright replied : I "No
Mr. Gladstone sees an object which he
thinks of vital importance, and he twins in
all directions for arguments in suppart Of
it. -He find them, and he becomes uncon-
scious of anything outside of them. Tlitat is
not self -deceit." To the objection that it
was a dangerous quality in a statesman to
be able to see only that aide of a question
which he wished to see, Mr. Bright replied
that every man Who had done anything
great in the world had been of that! con-
stitution. "You ean not do a great thing,"
he concluded, "if you have doubts of your
own position and reasons."

Roughly Silenced.
Archbishop Whately had a rough tongue
—he was called Ursa, Major—the 'Great
Bear—at Oxford—a fact unknown, to a
young aide -decamp who at a party ill Dub-
lin Caetle attempted to cross 'swords with
the prelate..
Approaching the Primate of Ireland, the
youth asked : "Does your grace know
what is the difference between an ass Tnd an
archbishop ?"
was the grave answerii
Then the youth went on, "An ass has a
cross on his back, but an archbishop has a
cross on his breast."
"Very good," said the archbishop.,
Now will you tell me what is the differ-
ence between a young aide-de:camp, like
yourself, and an ass ?"
"1 don't know," said the youth.
"Neither do I,' said the archbishop, and
walked away.
•
Charity in Judging Character.
Hasty j udgment of the actions of others is
dangerous and often unjust. We neasure
too much by some superficial appearance,
and condemn hastily, when, if we kit knew
and understood the motives and maims, we
would warmly approve. We sometimes say
of some one, That pain, sorrow oriloss has
not deeply affected him." But we do not
know. It is like the death of a few of the
soldiers in front of a regiment. The broken
ranks close up again into the solid phalanx
and the loss is not apparent. There may be
no disorganization, no surrender, no craving
for pity, no display of despair. It is like
the calm,dazzling play of the waves Warmed
by the morning's sun after a night of storm
and disaster. There is no -sign of the wreck ;
the tide has carried the debris away far out
on the ocean; the treacherous water has
swallowed all signs and tokens of the night's
awful work. We see only the fairness of the
morning, not the suffering of thle night.
Let us be charitable in our judgment, and
condemn not when we do not knoite—Wil-
liam G-eorge Jordan, in May Ladies' Home
Journal.

Greeks Do Not Like Didpipline.
Aversion to mechanical discipline shows
itself in the drill of the Greek troops, as
would be naturally expected fron?1 all that,
we know of them outaide the army. As a
people they always create the impression of
digorderliness. Men who walk together on
the street do not keep step. A Greek funeral
procession presents to our eyes a, most dis-
orderly and individualistic appearance.
The people who compose it go on /foot, and
each one seems to be strolling along on his
own account. On arriving at the grave
there is likely to be no fixed order of pro-

'without warning. All this represents a
deep-seated national characteristic and one
that renders the applieationof strict mili-
tary discipline in the for,3a known to the
armies of the north extremely difficult.
Herein lies the chief ground for apprehen-
sion regarding the fitness of the Greek to
meet the demands of modern methods of
warfare. A German battalion is a firmly
compacted. ,nachine, in which the individual
has lost the sense of autonomy. Paris can-
not resolve P: into its constituent elements,
because steady discipline and persistent drill
have made machine action a second nature.

talion is liable to become ex uno plures.

carrying granite from the quarries of Quincy,
Massachusetts, to the nearest tidewater.
Its length was four miles, including branches
and its first cost was $50,000. The sleepera
were of stone and were laid across the track
eight feet apart. Upon rails of wood, six
inches thick, wrought -iron plates, three
inches wide and a quarter of an inch thick,
were spiked. At the crossings 'stone rails
were used, and as the wooden rails became
unservicable they were replaced by others of

Hard on Ice Cream.
The British Institute of Preventive Medi-
cine has been investigating the manufacture
and sale of ice cream. A very exaustive in-
quiry regarding theinature and adulterations
of this toothsome substance has just been
completed ,by Dr. MacFayden and Mr.
Collyer, F. L C. The commission claims
that ice cream has only twenty-six and five -
tenths per cent. of solids, the rest being
water; that the solids consist of fats, four
per cent.; sugar, twelve per cent.; starch,
six per cent.; albuminoids, four per cent.;
and mineral water, one-half per cent. This
all sounds well enough, and would lead the
unwary reader to think that ice cream was
all right, but the denouement comes in the
results of microscopical research. The mic-
roscope shows the presence, in London ice
cream at least, of bedbugs, bugs'legs, fleas,
straw, hair, coal dust, woollen and linen
fibre, tobacco, ephithelial scales and mus-
cular tissue. Even the microscopical exam-
ination, however, is delectable compared
with the results of bacteriological studies.
These reveal in street -barrow ice eream a
maximum number of seven million microbes
per cubic centimetre, while the ice cream of
the shops has onlf one million per cubic
centimetre. The character of the microor-
ganisms is extremely mixed. There are the
bacteria soli commune, besides spirille and
putrefactive microbes of various kinds. We
find no account of a chemical analysis, which
would perhaps add the final touch to the
pathological picture of the ice cream of the
ehops. In this country it is known that ice
creams chemically contain a poison known
as tyrotoxicon. But in London it seems,
what with the bugs and the microbes and
the filth generally, there is no particular
need of further research to prove that the
ice creams of the peddlers _ and -the
streets are not resod things to eat. It ould
be an injustice to the ice cream industry,
however, to suppose that the supply which
is furnished to the Ainerican public is at all
comparable to that 1vhich has been investi-
gated by the English 1 authorities.
