Five cents will cover the cost of the book, and one cent for postage. The plan of this Temperance League as at present entertained contains five points. 1st, The 'pledge to be taken for 1891 only. 2nd, This Pledge -Book. 3rd, Every name secured to be sent within a week to the address given be- low, this done by tearing off and for - wording the third section of the pledge leaf. 4th, A rousing Temperance mase meeting towards the close of the year, seeking to encourage pledgers to renew their pledge, and each one to become an active worker in the cause be- sides. 5th An earnest Temperance corner in our NEW ERA. There may after counsel taken be modifications of this plan, but none that need prevent the immediate Ilistribution of pledge - book. Anyone, young or old, willing to put,,their hands to this work, can send'. JO a book and earnestly and prayerftflly begin to gather up names. A few of John B. Gough's Temperance Tracts will be sent free along with each pledge -book, at least while the scheme is in its infancy. Truly the liquor traffic is a Goliath in our land, "defying the armies of the living God." Why are we so feeble in his presence? Because we measure his strength by our littleness, instead of by God's mighi- nese. "Through God we shall do valiantly, for He it is that shall tread down our enemies." Looking to Him to use this feeble instrument and again to "perfect his strengh in weakness" we send forth this simple plan. Applica- tionfor pledge-booke will be gladly re- sponded to. ANNA Rose, Brucefield. MANY LADIES Have written that Clark's Catarrh Cure has relieved them, restoring perfectly every sense. Through grati- tude they have consented that their names be published. Yet the Clark Chemidal Co. will not use this means taadvertise their remedy. They will not parade the sufferings of any one, or invade the sacred privacy of any home. Any sufferer from catarrh will recom- mend Clark's Catarrh Cure, and that good word is -worth more than the pub- lished certificate- Clark Chemical Co., Toronto, New York.

Dr Keeley; of Dwight, Illinois, cures bibu- lists by the administration of bichlride of gold. The doctor admineters the bichloride through the stomach andsub- outaneously. It does not produce- an aversion for liquor, but simply exter- minates the desire or appetite. A few days ago a reunion and danquet of ex - drunkards who had been cured by the gold treatment was held at Des Moines, Iowa. The cure may be all right, but Keely suggests the motor that never moted.

It may be said that very many of those .k,rmers in the fruit township ,whose means enable them, are irreert ving their properties by plant- ing, principally by rows 'of trees along their roads or line fences, and, in many cases, round their orchards. But what would be a great step in advance may be understood from the fact that all would be much better done by a solid plantation of some acres. This will act as a windbreak in a man- ner which the row of trees can never attain to, besides the additional advan- tage then much valuable timber, such as ash, cherry, hickory and the like, can be grown. When in rows trees grow to branches and every branch forms a knot and often a bend in the wood; but where many trees are planted closely and properly thinned when necessary, (in the forest they thin themselves by the survival of the fittest) finelolear wood, fit for many purposes, can be produces. When we remember how scarcegood hard wood must soon become inOntario,the valve of such work is at once seen. In fact, farms to -day bring thousands of dollars more if they possess timber,while many farms are left but bare cleared expanses. A little labor some years since would have savedthis. Yours etc., Toronto, March 26th J. W. Pimps. It is painful to, contemplate the waste of brain and heart power on questions relating to altar lights and the attitudes of clergymen. Ministers who try to force picturesque fads upon unwilling congregations would be more usefully employed sawing wood. Perhaps the Lord is so busy planting in human hearts impulses that ripen into blessings upon His poor and painstricken child- ren that He will not notice the cut of ecclesiastical vestments, or the frills upon surplices. And surely the immort- al soul can be gazing reverently towards the dwelling place of the Almighty while mortal eyes are looking north, south,, east, or west. If the heart be turned toward Jeru- "salem, the goal of our faith, it is not worth while to wrangle as to the direct- ion in which the face is looking. Prot- estant churches will have to cease worrying about non -essentials, or wast- ing their energies in the building of glorious but mortgaged churches,pefore they can at all worthily work the work of Him who went about doing good. - Toronto Telegram. a ilurveyor, at e Conirliissionere of tion of Niagara, has ear hidde a survey of and Horseshoe Falls. foo parisonbetwe- a 1890 shows that Is there has been a 8.100 inches yearly he Horseshoe Palls, of 218.100 feet yearly Areerieen=Falls show esion of 75.100 feet in ft l3Orseshoe Palle a ion et ,.1045-100 .feet talaurea of recession • has disappeared lie+ nt year, 1890, alts 32, 900 su r- e 11oreeishoe Palle eat. • C.

There was quite an exciting scene at the real estate exchange New York on Friday, when Martin F. Hatch, acting for the Merchant Tailors' Society,stood with gavel in hand, before a crowd of several hundred prominent business and society men, and sold to the highest bidder about 35. unpaid tailor bills. These bills bore the names of well known New Yorkers, and those who did not seize the opportunity to pay up before the sale were held up to public ridicule. The lucky fellows who could settle up had their names stricken from the list. The ridiculousness of the sale can be realized when several bills amounting to several hundred odd dollars were sold in a bunch to a Jew tailor for 81. During the past quarter there were 566 failures in Canada against 532 for the corresponding quarter last year, and 269 in Ontario against 315. One of the oldest and most respected citizens of Guelph passed away Tuesday morning in the person of Mr. A. A. Baker, clerk of 'the Divisional Court. He wentthere in '1835 He was the first president of the Horticultural Society formed in 1851, and in 185.2 was instrumental in forming the Guelph Township Agricultural Society. He leaves no family and was in his 79th year. John Kennedy, a milkman of Eliza- beth, N. J., has won a wager by• swal- lowing 51 fried eggs in nine minutes and a quarter.

That at this season the blood is filled with impnritios, the accu- mulation of months of close con- finement in poorly ventilated stores, workshops and tenements. All these impurities and every trace of scrofula, salt rheum, or other diseases may be expelled by taking Hood's Sarsaparilla, the best bloodurifier ever produced. It is the only medicine of which '100 chshs'ono dollar' is true. HQW TO BECOME ROSY -CHEEK - ED WOMEN. The political battle is over, but the battle with disease must be constantly and unceasably waged else the grim reaper will come out victorious, and loved ones will gather to their long home. On all sides may be seen hale and listless girls who should be eniey- ing the health and glow of rosy youth. Everywhere are met with women young in years, yet prematurely old, who suffer in silence almost untold agonies, the result of those ailments peculiar to the female system. To all such, Dr Williams' Pink Pills comes as a blessing They restore wasted yital- ity, build up the nervous system, en- rich the blood, and transform pale and sallow complexions into glowing, rosy cheeks that alone follow perfect health. In a word they are a certain cure for all these distressing complaints to which women and girls are peculiarly liable. A trial of these pills will con- vince the most ecepticalof their wonder- ful merit. For suffering men Dr • Williams' Pink Pills are equally effica- cions. For over -work, mental, strain, lose of sleep, nervous debility and all those diseases that lead to broken-down manhood, they are a certain specific, stimulating the brain, reinforcing the exhausted system and restoring shat- tered vitality. Dr Williams' Pink Pills are nature's restorative and should be used by every weak and de- bilitated person.

It recommends itself, for people no soon- er see it than they are able at once to appreciate it. I sold 8 this season within 3Odays Robt Beatty, of Orangeville, writing -to the Company says: -"In summing up my waggon sales for the last six years, -1-find I have sold over 400 Chatham Waggons, and in all that number I have not heard of one break or one loose tire. I,, therefore, must congratulate you on building the beet waggon in Canada." It is said by some waggon makers that they have spent a long life in the business, and that, therefore theirs is the better waggon. If this be so, how is it that this company, who only commenced making waggons seven years ago, are now making and selling more waggons than the whole or them put together? Simply because the public appreciate the fact that undoubtedly they make the best waggon in the Dominion to -day ; and hereby invite any/one or all those waggon makers who make this claim for their waggons to a test of waggons for ease of running and carrying capacity against the Chatham Waggon for 8100. I am also agent for the Oshawa Noiseless Gear Bugg -y, an article that sells at sight. Also the Daisy Hill Road Cart, claimed to he the best cart in Canada, and also carts of other well-known makers. I am still handling the Champion Sylvester Plow, and also keep in stock the Scotch Diamond Harrow. All the above are offered to the people at prices to suit the times.
