Sheldon's Newspaper.
The Rev. Charles M. Sheldon,s books,
now so universally read, make it plain
that that writer's hopes of the regener-
ation of the world lie in getting indi•
viduals more and more to do their
daily tasks on Christian principles no
matter what the sacrifice involved. In
the beat known of his books. "In His
Steps," be clearly looks to the n ews-
paper, carded on upon Christian prin-
ciples, as largely the hope of the com-
ing kingdom. In looking about him
for a newspaper upon his model, he
seems to have hit on the Montreal
Witness, to which be has addressed a
letter, part of which we quote: -
"I have read the Witness with much
interest. I cannot say that I know of
any other daily paper in the United
States that is conducted on such high
Christian principles. I wish I did, for
if ever we needed a paper in our coun-
try we need it now."
"Let me express to you my appreci-
ation of the Christian heroism and con-
sideration which make a paper like the
Witness a possibility. I have always
believed it possible for a Christian
daily to succeed. You have proved
that it can. So much of the ideal
newspaper in "In His Steps" is there-
fore real." p
"I pray that you may continue to be
blessed in your work. 1 do trot know
a more glorious opportunity for build-
ing up the kingdom on earth than by
means of Christian journalism. I take
the greatest pleasure in sending the
copies of the Witness to newspaper
friends of mine for their inspecitlon.
"Very cordially yours,
"CHARLES M. SHELnoN,

CATARRH OF LONG STANDING RE-
LIEVED IN A FEW HOURS.
It is not alone the people of our own county,
and prominent citizens like Urban Lippe M. P.
of Joliette, Que., and other members •of 'arlia-
ment, who, having used Dr. Agnew's Catarrhal
Powder, pronounce it the most effective rem-
edy they have ever known, but people every-
where are expressing their gratification at the
effectiveness of this medicine. C. G. Archer, of
Brewer, Maine, says : "I have had catarrh for
several years. Water would run from my eyes
and nose days at a time. About four months
ago I was induced to try Dr. Agnew's Catarrh-
al Powder, and since using the wonderful rem-
edy I have not had an attack. I would not be
without it." It relieves in ten minutes.
Lucknow.
A car load of oats was shipped from
the Luoknow Elevator Company's store
house at the station here on the 4th of
October last for Portland, Maine, and
when it arrived at it's destination it
was found to be 123 bushels and 18
pounds abort in weight. An investi'
gation showed that several holes had
been bored in the bottom of the car
with an inch auger and the grain allow-
ed to run out along the truck. It ap-
pears that the perpetrator of this dia-
bolical act, after boring the holes in the
oar, in order to cover up his dastardly
work, put temporary plugs into the
holes, well knowing that with the shak-
ing of the oar these would drop out and
allow the grain to fall to the ground.
Before the oar reached Portland only a
portion of the plugs had fallen out,
however, or in all probability the whole
oar load of grain would have beep scat
tered along the rails. Who the culprit
le, or where the oar was when the holes
were bored intaIt is a difficult matter
to solve just now, but we understand
the Grand Trunk Railway Company,
who after all are the actual losers by
this outrageous act, will leave nothing
undone to find out the guilty parties.

Every drop of blood in the body goes through
the kidneys for the removal of its impurities -
every three minutes -night and day -while life
lasts. The kidneys aro the filter- and it stands
to reason that if the filter is out of order the im-
pure matter in the blood goes to every part of
the body at every heart beat. When tho first
indications of kidney disorder present themsel-
ves, resort at once to South American Kidney
Cure -the tried, tested and proved specific for
Bright's disease, diabetes and bladder compli-
cations. It never fails.
