"2"' HELP THE FAIR. l3Iyth Pall Pair will be held :his year on Monday and Tuesday, September 28rd and 246, The officers are ends+av- oring to not only increase the number and bettor the character of the ex- hibits, hut to enlarge the crowd that will attend the exhibition, This dis- trict is q►tite capable of holding and supporting a good exhibition of this kind every year, and it will do better than ever if the public would only take a keener interest In the event and en- courage the officers by helping to make it a success. The public should not lose sight of tho fact that they have a personail in- terest in the 'fair, and he success or failure ought to ho a matter appealing to their ,individual pride or regret, Too many people tboughtlessly get the idea that it fair is the institution of a few people who compose the scciety, or of its hoard of directors, and is con dnctod by them its a private money- making scheme. It is not. It would be just as reasonable to say that 1,e11oo18 belong to the board of trustees, or that municipal int#titutions belong to the councillors. The fair is a public institution, and more than that, it is it reflex of the thrift and pride of the community where it is located, It will be whet the people make it. It cannot rise'aboyo them. It ought not to bo permitted to fall below them, as a poor fair is an evidence of thesinahil• ity of the people to hold one, and a poor recommendation for any com- munity, , The fair is the people's, and upon them rests its success or failure. No matter how energetic or painstaking the director's ,nay be, they cannot suc- ceed unless loyally backed up the people, and they ask and expect the hearty co•eperation of all the farmers, and others within the district, This aid can bo given first by becoming a member of the society whether you have anything to exhibit or not, In the so and place aid assn bo g;von by becoming an exhibitor of contributing to the special prize list or attractions fund. Almost everyons has some- thing which, placed on exhibition, would add to the attractiveness of the fair, Then you can talk about tho fair, and induce friends and neighbors to identify themselves with the society and help it along., And lastly you can help' by attending the fair and taking with you as many as possible. . The directors are doing their best to make the 1907 fair a decided improve- ment on the last, They are making extensive alterations in the prize list, giving better and more prizes and ar- ranging them to bettor suit the exhib- itors, There is no doubt that a perusal of this year's prize list will interest you into taking something to the fair for exhibition, or if it does not it will at least bring you out to see what 'others have. placed there. Thorn will also bo attractions of various kind's to make tip a day that will bo enjoyable ns well as profitable,. Lot the people of the district do their pert and their is no foto' of the result. . _..•. Daly, of Guelph, Lands In Jail.

It had a strong resemblance to the Guelph sys- tem, which was then out•lined by the Crown Attorney in his cross-Pxgtinhtta. tion after Daly heti appealed to his counsel against being forced to disclose a gond to wealth to which he considered 'he had an exclusive right. • The Daly system, as explained in the police court, consisted of inducing a farmer to sign a contract to pay a cer- tain commission to J. J. Daly & Co, for the sale of his farm at a stated price. Thu farther stpin'oached, in most cases, signed the contmact as the sale price mentioned was usually a very liberal cne, The description of the farm given in the contract being very complete J. J, Dilly & Co. found no difficulty in registering theso docu- ments. That being done, they merely had to wait for the proper season to rear) a good harvest. 'There was no necessity to look up a client who had signed it contract, as he was bound to come to them if et any time he wished to sell or mortgage his farm, Before he could do anything he found that he bad to remove the cloud resting upon his title in the forth of the contract registered by J. J. Daly & Co, Fortunately, the latter were tot exacting, and were gouerally willing to remove the cloud for a consideration. However, tho system proved so enc• cessful that many thousands of dollars poured into the coffers of the firm. In fact Daly, the inventor, •looked around for now fields, and, securing advances on an assignment of his precious con- tracts, migrated to the States, The parties who tnade the advances, failing to receive ropaymppt from Daly, place their claims in tho hands of- Burns & McCollum, of Toronto, who instituted proceedings a few years ago against the unfortunate clients of ,T, J.

The giving of God's Pure Word to the benighted hes under Di- vine blessing surely brought consolation to many. Then we have the sure promise in sending out God's Word that it shall not return unto Him void, but shall accomplish that which he ploaseth and prosper in the thing whereto he hath sent it, In the ,pork of the Bible Society here you have act- ed your part faithfully and well and it is the prayer of this Society that this Word of 'Truth may sustain and com- fort you in your declining years, and give you abundant entrance into the Heavenly Home at last, In Windt of the Bible Society we now present y.iu with a certificate of lie membership for long awl faithful services gratuitously given by you as Treasurer of Blyth Branch ; expressing the wish that you niay lm long spared to assist in all good works in which you may be interested ; and while younger men may take up the active work they may have for many years the value of your ripe ex- perience. Signed on behalf of the Blyth Branch Bible Society. A. Elder, Secre- tary ; John Brigham, John Wilford, Henry Young, James Snaith, Robert Slater, Rev. S. Anderson, Rev, 3, L.

The Standard Oil Company has been found guilty of granting fright rebates on 8650,000 worth of oil, and a Chicago judge has fined it $20,240,000.

If a reasonable pen- alty had been imposed the people might have reason to expect that good would resit, but as it is the proceedings savor of farce. The United States National Bureau of Labor Inas issued a auminar ystatemeut of its report devoted to labor troubles of the twenty-five years from 1881 to 1905, and while it is not easy to interpret notch of the mass of statistics presented, some of the outstanding facts may prove interesting to Canadian readers. There were, in the period covered by the tables, no fewer than 30,757 Strikes and 1,540 lockouts, affecting respectively 187,407 and 18,547. establishments. The number of strikers was 6,728,048, and of those locked out 716,231. The average duration of strikes was 25.4 days, and of lockouts 84.0. '191e greatest prevalence of strikes and lockouts was in 1804 and the least in 1005. The greatest number of strikes was in the building trades, being 211.02 per cent. of tine total, and the greatest number of employees affected was in the coal and coke industry, the building trades coming seconu and the clothing industry third, About 70 per cent, of the strikes in number, with 00.34 per cent. of the establishments and 70.60 per cent. of the employees effected, were ordered by labor organizations. Of the results Of the difficulties th report indicates that the strikes sue- seeded in 47.04 per cent. of the cases; partly succeeded in 15.28 per cent., and 'wholly failed in 30.78 per cent, The employers succeeded in 57,20 per cent. of the lockouts, pertly succeeded in 10.71 per cent. and failed in 32,00 per cult. The causes of strikes are thus clas=i• fled: For increase of wages, 40,72 per cent.; "recognition of unions," 23,35 per cent.; ngninst reduction of wages, 11.00 per cent.; for reduced hours, 9.78 per cent. 771e strikes most successful were those for higher canoes and ngninst reductions of wages. Strikes for recognition of unions and union rules have been in- creasing in number and becoming less effective, while sympathetic strikes are rapidly decreasing and mostly fail. There is more inclination to settle labor iron - hies by negotiation and arbitration, and thus avert much foolish loss, As, to whe- ther the workers are gainers by the net result of the struggles chronicled by the Bureau it is not easy, to decide, but it is very much to be dobuted, 'floe day when strikes and lockouts become a bad memory will be a joyful one for modern industry, and none will benefit more than the innn who has only his labor to dispose of. And the public will welcome any less foolish and wasteful system. NEW CHAFING DISI,, Mounted in Copper That Like Bronze.

Amen. An Open Bible. There is no other book that has such a message for man as the book we call the Bible. There is no other book that has been so violeptly attacked, and so savagely criticized; and there is no other book that to -day possesses such a hold upon our race, And we believe its study is most intimately connected with the upward progress of man. To some the book comes with no credentials and they feel free to deal with it precisely as they would deal with any other book; with results, unfortunately, that do not tend to recommend this method of study. To the Christian, however, this book is not same as other books, and cannot be, In his own heart its credentials have been written in living characters, which he cannot misinterpret. And the study of i# will probably soon become a close book, and the Christian life will go out in darkness, When the Bible ceases to be a delight, there is something wrong either with the reader or with his method; and a change should be made at once, If the life is at fault, there can be no re- turn of Bible -relish until sin bo put away. If the method be to blame, we should change it. Sometimes men are so busy finding out the correlation of 13ib- lieal facts that they fail to catch the book's sweetest, richest message. We do not worry much over the costume of a singer; we do not criticize too closely her defects in form or feature; but we let the sweetness of the song flow into our souls in all its uplifting power of hear - mastery. The God of all the ages has a message for us in this Bible of ours; and if we will but sit silent and reverent enough, that message will prove its di- vinity by its power, This is the message ' for to -day and all days, the immortal truth, instinct with race -regenerating power, the mighty message upon whose accents hangs the redemption of our race. Let us listen to its vdiotl, "Kgtp your Bible open, and try. to catch its di- vinely -human message. Through it God still speaks to men.—Christian Guard- ian.

We know that the "precession of the equinoxes" greatly changes the cli- mate of certain portions of our planet, but that is an extremely slow movement requiring Inure than twenty -nye t11ous- and years to complete an entire cycle. But in the Northern Hemisj<lhere a most strange variation in the climatic condi- tiotla of a considerable portion of the earth's surface has of late occurred, in- volving a complete reversal of the or- dinary state of affairs. For instance, during the intensely cold weather of the past winter in Southern Europe and North Africa, the thermome- ter in Iceland registered as much as be- tween fifty and sixty degrees higher than in the Province of Venice; and in the city of Venice itself it was impossi- ble for a time to perform any funerals, 118 the canals were frozen hard, and gon- dolas could not be rowed to the ceme- tery. And in Constantine, an inland town in North Africa, ninny of the palms, and other subtropical trees were appars ently killed by the frost, while the snow which had fallen there was described as having been nearly a yard deep. 'Tliis, however, has probably an exaggeration. All down the Riviera, that region of slut and genial lvarth, too, it was at tinges intensely cold au.1 inclement, And in England, at nearly the end of June, fires in the rooms were almost a nem - say; while in Scotland it is recorded that heavy snow las fallen on some of the mountains; although at the saute tine at Trontsoe, two hundred nod fifty miles north of the Arctic' cirelo, the weather Was described as having been glorious and delightful, with the ther- mometer at seventy, j Or is the glacial period againiaapproaelt- ing, and England instead of bang a land of sylvan glades and shady 'groves, of heath -clod hills and flowdr•bedecked lanes and coombs, and of lovely fern - adorned glens and vales, once more to be mantled in a shroud of lee, every liv- ing creature driven from her drear and inhospitable shores, and, tot' an epoch, but a gelid wilderness, All ice -bound, stores -swept waste, And {n other respects too, alas, the earth is becoming more and more demor- alized The so-called "N(w Theology" is causing the unstable top lose their faith 'in the holy Bible; tie Lord's day is be- ing desecrated ever more and more; and in mousy of the pulpits! of the land the great atonement for Sin male on the cross by the Son of ('god ih utterly ig- nored, and Hero etlles turd morality— though lmpe(ative of course, to those who would attain to eternal life—aro slubstitute(1 for faith. in the Redeemer's sacrifice.

Now, the inose prect teal discovery of the lust decate, the one most far- reach-ing in its results to Ontario farmers, Is that known us ''tlunr•blending," Western flour has been popular in On- tario on account of its large percentage of gluten or "strength," which chem- ists call proteid, although the western product lucks both flavor and color. ].Flour made from Ontario winter wheat is Oat so "strong," but has a peculiarly ettrnctiveflavor, When a little West- ern wheat ie added to the Ontario product, 1 he peroentege of gluten is increased, and all the flavor retained.
