Installation services were held in the Congregational church, Wingham, on Tuesday, in connection with the settlement of the Rev Henry . Mote, D. D., as minister of the church. In the afternoon a Council was held, when ministers, delegates and 'friends from several Congregational churches in the district were present. Councillor Leatherdale, of Brussels, was the owner of a Jersey calf that he had sold to a gentleman in Brantford for $18, and to be forwarded shortly. The calf got hold of some rope used by the bricklayers at Mr Leatherdale's, and chewed and swallowed a short ebd about four feet long, causing berdeath.__ The veterinary found it undigested in the animal's stomach. Mr Luther Gilchrist, of Wingham, while working a shaper in the Organ Factory at Goderich, • on Tuesday of last week, had the misfortune to have his right hand come in contact with the knives, and it was. pretty badly in- jured, the little finger so badly that it was necessary to have it amputated, A pleasant meeting was held in the basement of the Presbyterian church, Wingham, on Tuesday evening, when a large number of the members and adherents of the congreg ation and others, gathered to welcome Mr and Mrs Perrie on thier return from the old country, where Mr Perrie has been recuperating his health for the past two months. The Presbytery of Maitland met at Wingham,July loth. Rev John Ross, of Ashfield, was appointed Moderator. Mr Stewart reported that the declare. - ion of union between Knox and Mel. • le churches, Brussels, was read from pulpits of the aforesaid churches. mission was given to Mr McLennan moderate in a call to a minister at St. Helens and East Ashfield. The Presbytery agreed that $150 be asked from the Augmentation Committee in behalf of Walton congregation. Word was received by telegram that Adam Good, at one time a general merchant of Brussels, had died in the Toronto hospital, where he went lately from his residence in Alma, Hullett, to have an operation performed, removing an abscess from his lung. It was per- formed a few days ago and word was received stating that he was doing well, but the next word was of his death. The body arrived there on the Wednesday night train. - From the Tuckersmith voter's list for 1895 we learn that in the township there are altogether 878 voters, as ag- ainst 861 for 1894. These are divided as follows:—Persons entitled to vote at both municipal elections and elections to Legislative Assembly, 675; persons entitled to vote at municipal elections only. 110; persons entitled to vote at Legislative Assembly only, 93. The total number of persons eligible to serve as jurors is 482 On the llth of July John Brown'e shingle mill. Grey. and all the machin- ery, including the threshing machine engine and thirty bunches of shingles belonging to Mr Cook and Mr Bateman were destroyed by fire. Mr Brown was running that day, and was away to dinner about 20 minutes when they saw the smoke coming out of the mill. When they got to the mill it was too late to save anything. He thinks the fffre caught under the boiler. There was no insurance, and the loss is about $800. On Thursday evening Mr Suther- land's store, Wingham, narrowly es- caped heing destroyed by fire. That evening about dusk a customer called to get an oilcan soldered, and Mr Suth- erland went into the Hack room to do the job. He went to start the fire to heat the soldering iron, and by some means the fire, came in contact with a can of gasoline, which is used as fuel in the fire pot to heat the irons with. In a moment the blaze was running up the side of the room tothe ceiling. Mr Sutherland grabbed the can, which a.ny., Children ClIaary for Vbt6'�Mf`t'Y'i� settles. centained nearly a gallon of gasoline, out of the back door, When he got to the back door, he found it bolte, but he pluckily held the can until he on - bolted the door, and threw the Can out into the back yard, where the gasoline burned put without doing any more damage. Mr Sutherland's right hard .and • arm were badly burned, and it will be some time before he will be able I to use his band. When Baby eras sick, we gave her Cestoda.

Illustrating the lines :- "Now fades the glittering landscape on the sight And all the air a solemn stillness holds." A 60 line essay written 13' one of the candidates at the recent Departmental Examinations in Clinton. The above sentence, in chaste and beautiful language, aptly describes the evening twilight --that period of the. day when Nature seems hushed in still- ness and repose, when the sun has all but sunk to rest, and the sliding stars will soon invite to slumber. No period of the day is so conducive to health and happiness as twilight. At its approach the weary invalid, reclining on his couch, feels, with de- cidedly pleasurable emotions, the an- imating touch of the balmy breezes of the sea; and as he looksout through the window of his little cot, and sees the great orb of light sinking gently to rest on the bosom of the ocean, light- ing up with rays of gladness other un- known regions, he ardently longs for the coming of the time when he, him- self, shall gently sink to rest, �leacetully reclining on the ocean of Gods love and mercy. His pulse is quickened into new life by the inspiring thoughts, and his fevered brow is cooled by the soft sea air. His heart goes out in feelings of love and adoration towards the almigh- ty creator, who molded this beautiful world in the hollo* of his hand, and launched it forth into space. From viewing nature in this, her beauteous aspect, he is 19d upwards in thought to "Nature's God;" for as he looks out upon the fertile fields and the rippling rivulet, and above all on the towering mountains, reflecting from their snow- capped peaks the last rays of the sink- ing sun, he thinks of that beautiful de- scription by Isaiah of the happiness of those who believe "For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands." But not to him alone is the approach of twilight productive of happiness. The children, elate with joy, issue forth, and spend that time gamboling on the village green, and even grown- up men join in their innocent amuse- ments. --Everything is in its -most handsome appearance on the old hillside, lit up, as it is. by the last rays of the setting sun. Even the very. flowers, scorched and withered by the heat of the day, resume new life and vigor. A golden pillar seems to have been lain through the ocean, joining the sun to mother earth, and the western hori- zon is lit up in all its varied splendor. But soon, ah ! too soon, dewy night rolls round its hollow shade, enshroud- ing this beautiful picture with its man- tle of darkness. Getting Rid of Bent Pins. The problem of separating bent pins from those that are perfect before placing them in papers for sale has bothered many a manufacturer. The machine that makes the pins, cutting them from a roll of wire, molding the head and sharpening the points, is so nearly human in its action that one might suppose it could be de pended upon to threw away those that have become bent or distorted in the mak- ing. As the pins are finished they are dropped into a receptacle, good and bad alike -although comparatively few are bad -and aro afterward taken in bulk to the machine that sticks them in neat parallel rows in the papers. This machine doesn't discriminate, so it is necessary in some way to go over the mass of pins and pick out such as are not perfectly straight and uniform. All sorts of labor-saving devices for the purpose have been tried, but most of tjrem proved to be more or less unsatisfactory, and had to be abandoned. Finally a Connecticut manufacturer hit upon a successful plan. He was so much pleased with his invention that he refused to,patent it,knowing that he would be in- volved in a score of infringement suits in no time if ho did, and preferred to keep his process a profound secret. To do this ho had to attend to it himself, of course, as he was afraid to trust any of his workmen. The machine was carefully wrapped from observation and placed in a small room at the top of the factory. The door was kept securely looked, and no one but the pro- prietor had a key. The barrels of pine fresh from the forming machine were put on an elevator and sent up to the mysteri- ous chamber, and the door was locked. By and by they would come down again -the sheep separated from the goats - and in a very short time indeed. Nobody but the proprietor knew how it was done, but everybody was satisfied. The procees has now to come to light, and, like many another ingenious piece of mechanism,the machine is so simple that it is a matter of wonder why it was not thought of before. It consists of ahopper,and inclined trough and a slowly moving endlesa belt -and that is all. Tho pins are poured into the hopper from the barrels. They drop from this into the flat-bottomed trough, whence they are discharged onto the belt. Now, as any one knows who has tried tbe ex- periment, a straight pin will roll on a plane surface very easlly,but will not roll straight ahead because one end ie se much longer than the other. A crooked pin will not roll at all. This wag the principle of the machine. As soon as the pine fell upon the moving belt the straight ones immediately rolled to the edge and fell off. The bent ones, being unable to roll were carried along by the belt and dropped into a separate compartment at the further end . The good are thus separated from the bad automatically, '` '4I NTON, NEW ERA THE FELINE • :DACE. ONE OF THE MOST ACTIVE ANI- MALS 18 THE WILDCAT. They Are More Numerous Than Generally Supposed ---They Are Particularly Afraid of Man ---More Gunning Than a Fox -- His Ability as a Fighter. All the gats, from the greatest, the royal Bengal tiger, to the least, the purring pet of our households, are graceful and dainty creatures; and -despite •their out -throat methods of earning a livelihood -when it has to be earned -they are all worthy to be classed among the true aristocrats of the four -footed world. As much of this may be claimed for our American wildcat as for any other speoies, for, though he has a short tail instead of the long, graceful member of the typical oats, he makes up for this defect by pos- seesfng a greater length of limb, , and ac- cordingly stands higher in proportion to Ms length of body. He is therefore one of the most active springers and most nimble climbers of the feline race. Wildcats, even here in the forests of the Atlantic elope, are more abundant than is generally supposed. They have learned to dread man and to keep out of hie eight and bearing, and away from the keen scent of his trained hounds; hence they are seldom seen. But all our broader for- ests, even those within fifty miles of the great cities, include among their wild population a fair percentage of fells rnfus, as ztoologists call him. Surpassing even the wily foPin secretiveness, the wild oat, if he were not possessed of a certain cour- age and independence, especially when feeding, would be almost as common in our forests as the ground squirrel. The ability of this animal to elude the observation of man, when not feeding, is truly wonderful. He once learned to fear the Indian, who could send from a dis- tance a sharp -pointed arrow into his vitals. How much more must he dread the hunter's long range rifle! Conscious of his own prowess, and relying upon his formidable equipment of claws and teeth, he knows at the same time that he is no mat3h for that other destructive creature, who walks erect through the forest with a powder -and -lead -loaded weapon over his shoulder. Indeed, the wildcat shares this feeling with every other brute inhabitant of the forest. But, unlike many of them, when suddenly approached by the hunter, he dis- dains a precipitate and cowardly flight, and only trots leisurely to the nearest bush and crouches there wltihn a few paces of his enemy. Or perhaps he springs into the fancied security of a tree, not realizing the far-reaching and death -dealing power of the rifle. Whatever his retreat ;maybe, he must turn more than once and look back with cat -like stare at his pursuer, and then is the deadly shot delivered. But except on these occasions, the wild - oat remains entirely out of man's sight and hearing. His crouching attitudes„his gray -mottled and reddish -brown coat, closely resembling in general color his background of dead leaves and mossy rocks, render him invisible so long as he remains motionless. Observe our domestic puss when prowl- ing in the garden, intent on bird -hunting, and notice how skilfully she manages to •keep out of sight and hearing. Every movement is made with the utmost cau- tion, every advantage of ground or vege- tation is made use of, every disadvantage Is estimated and, if possible,avoided. Yet this is a creature in whose veins flows the blood of many generations of household pets, and from whose nature much of the original wildness has been eradicated. The wildcat is tenfold more cautious and watchful, and when we consider the almost impenetrable thickets and secret rock covers that abound in our deeper for- ests it is a wonder that even the hunter's sharp eyes can ever discover his presence. Nothing but his occasional defiant moods can betray him. I have never heard the cry of the wild- cat except at night, and experienced hunt- ers tell me that it is seldom uttered in the day -time. When hunted with dogs and driven to bay in a narrow thicket, friom which he cannot escape without running the ganutiet, the cat seems to know his danger and sometimes utters shrill and piercing cries, intensely expressive of rage, defiance, perhaps of despair. His ordinary calls are not unlike those of the domestic cat, except that they are longer drawn out and naturally have much more volume. Yet so seldom are these cries heard that the wildcat may almost be called a silent mem- ber of nature's fam!ly. As a fighter this cat has no superior, and with the exception of the larger mem- bers of the weasel tribe, such as the badger and the wolverine, he has no equal at twice his size. The feline race are endow- ed by nature with weapons superior to those of all other oarnlvora-those terrible claws provided with sheathe and thus kept sharp when not in use. Our wildcat, though no largerthan a beagle hound, prob- ably possesses twice the muscular force and agility of any dog, and can, in fair battle, soon make the pluckiest and strongest hound draw off whipped. Two powerful dogs may kill a wildcat, but never without sustaining severe injuries. Yet, under ciroumstanoe4, and, if not dis- turbed while feeding, the cat will take to a tree when chased by a dog and will show fight only when brought to bay. Cattle in Manitoba. The season of 1894 was an exceptional one in respect to the number of cattle ship- ped from Manitoba and the Territories, yet indications are that the coming enm- mer and fall w111 witness still larger ex- portations. Tho early spring permitted cattle being let loose on the prairie some weeks ahead of previous years, and as a result they will be in condition for ship- ment a considerable period in advance of past seasons. Already two shipments of grass fed cattle have been sent east, and the outlook is very favorable. Railway officials say cattle dealers are making pre- parations for an extensive trade during the coming months, and from the middle of July the shipments will be frequent. Live In Christ. No soul can ever bo really saddled until It has given up all hope of adding any- thing to Christ, and has oome to the place when He alone is enough, He himself, jnet as He is, without the addition of feelings, or emotions, or doctrines, or experienoes, or revelations, or of any of the things, either inward or outward. All other things change or fail, and the soul finds in them no permanent rest; but Christ is the same yesterday, to -day and forever, and the soul that rests on Him alone can never bo moved.
