The Bill to incorporate the Sep -
Benevolent Society and
The Canadian Order of Home Cir-
1eQ, has been thrown out by the
puking and Commerce Commit-
, -leo of the House. The allusions of
-Vithe papers to these societies are
ardIy correct. The Home Circle
711 incorporated under the Ontario
:9e:refcnnient, and stands on pre-
cisely the same , footing • in its
workings as any other mutual in-
surance society, which is all that
it claims to be. The Septennial is
searent,. as its managers promise
10 pay $1000 in seven years, on a
limited payment. It may be able
to de eo, and time only will prove
it, butmany are skeptical about
lit. Those in this place wbo be-
,oug to it, are sanguine of the
aaltimate benefits to be obtained,
,while on the other hand men who
are wide awake financiers, allege
that the Septennial can never car-
ryout its provisions.
Cotemporary Opinion.
The means by which ,Conservative
majorities have been maintained in the
Dominion have been so openly repug-
aunt to all recognized codes of political
ethics that they cannot but appear to
'Englishmen • as wholly reprehensible
rtad unworthy of a great political party.
S--Liyerpool Post:
No statesman in Canada is rising
faster than Mr. Laurier. His clean
record, pure character, conciliatory
1t�fcuaner and lofty eloquence are giving
-.. ".4.i�r a- strong hold on the esteem and
iiaCadence of the people without dis-
tinction of creed and party. He fights

/Ada needs first-oless men on both sides,

to see that patriotio, statesmanlike,
qualities should be appreciated where -
ever they appear. -Canada Presbyter-
"As for Mr. Lewdney, he cannot
argue, he cannot debate; he is afraid of
his shadow, and among the members
_generally he is despised. His method
of defense, is the method of a very tin -
sant animal common in some parts
1Fi the Northwest. He is like his class.

a Wonder the point has not been seized
on before. In English history,as in all
history, we find the favorite, incompet-
ant, greedy, insolent, an upstart, and
jawing everything to the backstairs in-
4tuence and bedchamber intrigue. Their
fall bas generally been as sudden as
their rise." -Regina Leader, Conserve-
, Sive.

houses in Walkerville nearly 4,250,000

A Springfield correspondent wrrtes:-
, Some time ago we noticed an article
in one of the county papers which gave
as the oldest person in the county a
.woman supposed to be 103 years old.
This record has been beaten, for there
lives at the present time an old lady in
Staffordville, Ont., who is now at the
remarkable age of 104 years. During
'the past two years she has had a wrist
broken and a hip crashed, but not-
withstanding all this she is now smart
and healthy, and looks considerably
..younger than she really is. Her name
is Mrs Warner.

Herbert Spencer, writing to Dr
Jones, of the Brooklyn Ethical
Society, observes: "In my earlier
days 1 constantly made the foolish
supposition that conclusive proofs
would change beliefs. But ex-
perience has long since dissipated
my faith in mon's rationality."
The majority of people die
sooner than they should, George
E. Waring, jun., says: 'Disease is
not a consequence of life; it is due
to unnatural conditions of living
-to neglect, abuse and want.'
and Dr Stephen Smith says: 'Man
is born to health and longevity;
disease is abnormal, and death,
except t from old age, ge, is accidental,
and both are preventable by
human agencies.'
The destruction of the power
house of the electric railroad in
Asbury Park is followed by the
announcement that the railroad
did not pay, and thecompany will
use the old-fashioned horse after
this. Doubtless investors know
of other electric railroads with
a similar history, if such a
venture was unprofitable in a
town that has 100,000 or more in-
habitants during four months of
the year.
A positive nuisance has grown
out of a new advertising trick by
which certain ,companies, notably
in Boston and Chicago, are push-
ing their wares by getting little
boys to act as peddlers and agents
in the hope of 'getting a bicycle
free.' These companies sell book
baking powder in this way, de-
mandinglarge sale in return for a
cheap bicycle. The ti itis: is prac-
ticed to such an extent that the
average neighbor's child is ten
times more of a terror than
nature made him.

THOUGHTS THAT BREATHE.
It is never to late too give up
our prejudices. -Thoreau.
The best education in the world
is that got by struggle to get a
living. -Wendell Phillips.
Do not wait for extraordinary
opportunities for good ac`iors, but
make use of common situations.
-Goethe,
We sometimes congratulate our-
selves at the moment of waking
from a troubled dream; it may be
so after death. -N Hawthorne.
Who cannot renounce, cannot
love. W h 3 cannot renonnco,, can-
not become perfect. Wbo Cannot
renounce, cannot be made holy.
The way of inward peace is ilt
all things to be conformed to the
pleasure and disp,lsitiou of the
Divine Will. Such as woula have
all things succeed and come to
pass according to their own fancy
are not come to know this way.
And therefore lead a harsh and
bitter life, always restless ar.d out
of humor, and without treading
in the way of peace, which con
sists in a total conformity to the
will of God.-Mignel de Melinos
There are two general ways of
facing life. One, of absolute
frankness, honesty, openness; the
other, of deceit, concealment,
finesse. The latter method may
or may not have in itself more or
less of absolute wrong. Tho
bettor of the two ways is the at-
titude of absolute frankness.
Such attitude promotes fearless-
ness. It is, however, Subject to
the peril of appearing hard. But
this impression may bo removed
by a deep love for man and God.

They were not wretched at all,
these early London citizens; but
on the contrary,joyotks and happy
and hopeful. And not only for
the reaeone already stated, but
the great f'aot-be greatest fact
of the time -of their blind and
unreasoning faith. It ie f mpos-
Bible to exaggerate the import -
ghee of unreasoning faith as -a
factor in human happiness. The
life of the meanest man was filled
with dignity and with splendor,
because of the great inheritance
assured to him by the Cbulech.
We must never for -one moment
leave out the Church in speaking
of the past. Wemust never for.
got that all people, save here and
there a doubting Rufus or a,ques-
tion Prince Anjou, believed with.
out the shadow of any doubt.
Knowledge brought the power
of questioning. As yet there was
no knowl e. Therefore every
man's life, however miserable,
was, to his happy ignorance, the
certain anteroom of heaven. We
are fond of dwelling on the medi-
Leval hell, the stupidity and the
brutality of its endless torture,
and the selfishness of buying sal-
vation�, with, masses. Hell, my
friends,. was always meant for the
other man. He whosaw the dev-
ils painted on the church wall,
rending, tearing, frying, cutting,
scouring the poor souls into hell,
knew these souls for those of his
enemies. Like Dante, he saw
among them all his public and
private foes. He looked upward
for his hope. There he beheld
loving angels bearing aloft in
their soft arms the soul redeemed
to the abode of perfect bliss.
In that soul he recognized him-
self ; he saw the portraiture, exact
and life -like, Of his own forgiven
and sanctified features.
When the ambassadors of the
Caliph Aaroun al Raschid brought
gifts to the groat King Karl, the
finest thing he had to show them
was the splendid service of the
Church.
This story is told literally. It
might be told as an allegory. In
London, Saxon and Norman -as
also for many centuries to follow -
the finest thing they had to show
was the Chur•ch,with its music that
moved the heart to tears ; its
promises, which steeled the soul
to endurance ; its glories, which
carried the beholders far away
from the busy wattle of clay of his
hut and his grimy leathern doub-
let ; its power, which stood be-
tween him and the tyrannous over
lord, and saved his home from
starvation and his womankind
from dishonor. Fortunate indeed
-it was for the people that they
had the Church to show to those
ambassadors of the Moslem.
- From ' London -Saxon and
Norman,' by Walter Besant, in
Harpers Magazine for July.
HUNGER IS THE BEST SAUCE.
As a rule, a person who bas a good
appetite has aood health. But how
many there are who enjoy nothing they
eat, and sit down to meals only as an
unpleasant duty. Nature's antidotes
for this condition are so happily com-
bined in Hood's Sarsaparilla that it
soon restores good digestion, create& an
appetite, renovates and vintalizes the
blood so that the beneficial effect of
good food is imparted to the whole body.
Truly hanger is the 'best sauce, and
Hood's Sarsaparilla induces hunger.
SOME BARBARISMS.
The barbarism of check -reins
scents at last to be condemed to
death by royal mandate. For
one person that uses acheck-rein
because he thinks it desirable,
there aro a hundred who use
them because everyone else does
who wants to be stylish. These
things go by fashion. Just a few
generations ago every gentleman
had his hair cut off and wore a
bob wig, because that fashion had
once suited the exigencies- and
the majesty of the Grand Monar-
qne ofh'rance,evorybody nowadays
thinks a horse looks better with
a bob tail and his neck pulled up
intoa constrained incitation of the
masculine curve of which custom
has robbed him. This imita-
tion is slut beautiful, and is most
cruelly galling, as anyone can
discover by trying to pull a load
with his head tied back. Nobody
likes to give it up, because other
people will not do so. On:-
noble
nrnoble Queen has, however, shown
a capacity for new i lr•.i3 even in
her advanced years, .0,.1 has the
courage to carry cul 11-r convic-
tions even in the f:s4;e of that
strongest of court tyrants, the
conventionality of society. As
the result of a correspondence on
the subject, she bas ordered the
bearing reins off the royal harness.
In a few months, or years at the,
most, the new fashion will find
its way down through society,and
in time even the draught boi'se
will by emanipated. It will bo
harder to do away with the blind -
ors be a single biat, as horses
trained to them are imagined to
be dangerous without them; but
many of our readers may possibly
live to see even the iron shoe
dispensed with. On asphalt the
horse's plain hoof would probably
bo the bust. The Queen might
also snake some very wholesome
changes in ladies apparol, which,
in her pure court, should have
been -node far earlier.

To Mr P. Straith Clinton.-DBAS SXR, -Re
d
Mower Knives, I have used one Reaper
for
and
last four years and feel satisfied that no other
machine that I have ever seen will Rive the
same satisfaction, as my experience is that
both the stone and the knife keep their shape
in a manner that is astonishing, and one per-
son can both turn the stone and hold the
knife with the greatest of ease. I feel that 1
am perfectly justified in recommending your
machine to the farmers of Ontario, or any
other countryy as one that if properlylused and
taken care of,itill give the best of satisfaction
to those using it.

quisite to the farmer of to -day. By its
means a Knife can be sharpened by one man
in one half the time it used to take two men,
or at least one man, and a boy to turn the

done. We have used one now for years, and
