A Weillilled Purse.
The following from the Allenford
correspondence of the Tara Leader,
has reference to a brother of the Mes-
srs. Brandon of the vicinity of Wing -
ham :—"Before the departure of Rev.
J. W. Brandon for his hew field of
labor, the members of the Allenford
Methodist Cherch presented their pas-
tor with an address and well-filled
purse. Mr. Brandon was somewhat
taken by surprise and could scarcely
find language to express his thanks
and appreciation of the many kind-
nesses received during the four years
of his pastorate. He said he had
faithfully endeavored. to fulfill his
duties as their pastor but nevertheless
he felt he was unworthy of all their
kindness. Mr. Brandon and family
left on Wednesday, 28th ult, for Swett, -
burg where he has been appointed by
Conference. The best wishes of the
community go with him and his es-
teemed partner and family to their
new home.
Wingham Is Progressive.
Last week, on amnia of going to
press soon after the poll closed, we
could only announce that both By-
laws submitted had received the ap-
proval of the property -owners. That
only a few votes (comparatively) were
registered against the By-laws, shows
that the property.owners of our town
believe in progress, and once more
stamp; Wingham as a progressive
town. Arrangements will no doubt
be made at once for the carrying out
of the Waterworks extension project,
so that the work may be completed at
the earliest possible date. The expen-
diture of $12,000 will give us increased
and improved tire protection, and give
the town facilities for water for street
purposes, sale to railway tompabies,
fectories, hotels, etc., so that ere long
we hope to see a suffleient revenue to
meet the annually -maturing deben-
ture. The Connell ma On Monday

Ontario's Birth•Bate.
The plain and yet necessary and
outspoken warning on this matter, re-
cently uttered by the Bishop of Huron,
is deserving of commendation. There
is abroad a sort of mock modesty, and
both press and. pulpit neglect their
duty in this respect perhaps, by not
"speaking out," The Weekly Sun,
that popular farmers' paper, said re-
cently :—"The birth-rate of Ontario is
lower than that of any European
country save France, and very little
above the latter, The Bishop of Hu -
eon and the official recorder of vital
statistics for the Province unite in at-
tributing the low rate to the only
cause to which it can be attributed—
the taking of unnatural means to pre-
vent a legitimate increase. The re-
duction in the munber of births is,
perhaps, not the greatest evil in the
case. Sometimesthe effort to prevent
birth fails, and there is an unwelcome
child, and an unwelcome child must
necessarily lack some thing in the de-
velopment which should. precede birth.
To be well born is the first and great-
est right. Those of parental age who
are not prepared to accept the obliga-
tion in marriage should keep out of
the matrimonial bond. The prostitu-
tion of marriage to licensed liber-
tinism and disregard of the physical, ;
mental and moral influences exercised
before birth is the crime of the age.
The Bishop of Huron, who spoke with
exceeding frankness at it recent meet-
ing of his Synod in regard to the mat-
ter, performed a plain duty, and one
which should be taken up by others."

A Patriotic Song.
"Soldiers of the Empire" is the title
of a new patriotic song, that is likely
to have a popular run. It is of local
importance from the fact that the
cover is from it design drawn by
Harry H. Marsales and he is also the
composer of the words of the song.
Harry is a grandson of Mrs. Reynolds
of our town, and as he spent his school
days here, Harry may be termed a
"Winghain boy"; hence a local inter-
est attaches itself to this sees.. The
words are truly patriotic, the music
by J. Benj. Burns, is simple, yet has
in it the irresistible swing of martial
melody, and is of such easy compass
that it can be sung almost by anyone.
It has received highest commeeda-
tions. Bandmaster Robinson of the
13th Regiinent (Hamilton) has secured
its adoption as the Regimental March
song. Such musical critics as Ruth-
ven McDoeald and Geo, Allan praise
itehighly and will use it in their con-
cert ettgagements. It is bound to take
a prominent and permanent place
among Canada's natiottal songs. Here
are the words
We're soldiers of the Empire, soldiers
brave are we;
We guard the greatest Empire there
Is in history.
We're guardians of the Empire that's
"Mistress of the Seas,"
And the noble flag that's braved so
long, the battle and the breeze.
SW is ever shining ou some of our
domains,
Where the Union jack Is flying o'er
lanai where freedom reigns,
Entltik
Soldiers of the Empire, soldiers of
the Xing,
Soldiers of our Canada, whose praise
we loudly sing.
Jolliest of mortals in the wide, wide
world;
Soldiers ever ready, when the
"Sack's" unfurled.
We're sturdy sons of Canada, the
homeland of the brave,
"rwixt dark Atlantic billow and great
Pacific wave.
We're soldiers of it noble king; we're
guardians of the throne,
That for the right, against the world,
has often stood alone.
We're soldiers ever ready, at the
sound of bugle eall,
With the "Jack" asflying o'er tte, into
bsttle Hos to fa
OrangeMen M Church.
There was a large turnout of the
members of L. 0, L, No. 704 on Sun-
day last to attend St, Pani's church.
The Young Britons and Orangemen
numbered 98 or 100, The ladies of the
True Blue lodge ocenpied the front
seat. Rural Dean Lowe preached AU
appropriate sermon from Psalm 100
10, his Lordship the Bishop of Heron
assisting in the service. Adjacent
lodges were represented in the atten-
dance, and chairs had to be brought
in to provide seating accommodation.
In the afternoon, a, number from
Wingham attended service with the
Belgrave brethren, and report a large
atiendance and a good sermon by Rev.
Eduioncle.
A Narrow Escape.
A cottein of Miss Tibbs of town nar-
rowly escaped a painftd death at the
picnic given by Hon, Chas, Hyman,
M. P., in London, on Saturday. It is
said that in order to create an excite-
ment during which pockets might be
picked, a young man lighted a paper
bag and threw it into the crowd. It
fell on Mrs. Tibbs, of Nelson street,
and her light dress caught fire aud
was at once in a, blaze, svhich ran up
her back and caught her hair. The
presence of mind of a gentleman pres-
ent saved the lady. lie quickly took
off his dont and throwing Mrs. Tibbs
to the ground, wrapped his coat
around her end extinguished the
flames, thus saving her from very
painful injuries and perhaps from
death.
A Pine Team.
The following from the Brandon
Sun has reference to the fine team of
Clydesdales recently shipped by J. E.
Sweats from Wingham with fifteen
other fine specimens of horse flesh
"The horses were bought by Mr.
Sweets from Mr. Marra, Guelph, Ont.,
it prominent farmer and a well-knowe
breeder of fine Clydes. The team was
supposed to be the best pair of three-
year -olds in Ontario. They weigh
3,500 lbs. and are it fine team of light
bays, well matched in size a,nd appear-
ance. They won lst and 2nd on hal-
ter at Galt show, 2nd against aged
teams in harness, and won from a
splendid C. P. R. team from Toronto,
They also won everything in their
class at the Guelph exhibition. Many
farmers and horsemen who have seen
the team declare they are the finest
pair of three -year-olds seen in Bran-
don for many years.
Langside Garden Party.
A most successful garden party was
held at Langside on Thursday evening,
under the auspices of the Presbyte-
rian Church. The evening was fine
and the attendance large. The pro-
gramme consisted of vocal and instru-
mental music, recitations and addres-
ses. The Lucknow orchestra rendered'
excellent service. The pastor, Rev.
G. M. Demi, occupied the chair; he
has the happy faculty of being able to
contribute largely to the happiness
and enjoyment of others, and is evi-
dently a favorite with his people. The
gate receipts were ROO, and the pro-
ceeds of the refreshment booth, $55.
The total proceeds, $161, made the
committee look happy, and a broad
smile adorned their faces, that did not
wear off for it few days, A pleasing
feature of the evening was the excel-
lent order on the grounds, where so
many had gatheveti to enjoy them-
selves.

UM PER YEAR IN ADVANCE
NOTE AND COMMENT, "
—It is expected that the Dominion
Parliament will prorogue about the
lst of August,
—The latest rumor is that the
Autonomy Bill will not have clear
sailing in the Senate. The land and
educational elitusea will be hotly de-
bated, and report has it they may be
sent back to the Commons for recon-
sideration, Some of the old Liberals
in the Senate are opposed to these
clauses,
—The Taps have taken possession of
Saghalien bland, and the Japanese
flag now flies over that portion of
Russian territory. The island is
about 500 miles long, and from 17 to
70 wide. It lies north of the Japanese
, islands and has it population of thirty
thousand. Its capture was easy, but
it is regarded as a clever move from a
diplomatic standpoint,
—Lorne McDougall, C. M. G., Audi-
tor -General of Canada has resigne,d
after twenty-seven years of faithful
service, He had long warned the
Government, that unless the Auditor
Act was amended so as to give him
power to more properly prevent 11 -
legal payments, he would be obliged
to resign. The Government refused
to make the changes in the Act, and
the consequence is, that a faithful
custodian or "watch -dog" (as he has
been termed) of Canada's purse has
resigned. With an increasing ex-
penditure and millions by the score to
be spent for the Grand Trunk Pacific,
Causulians wouM have felt safer, had
the Government made the changes
the Auditor desired, and retained the
service of a faithful official, whose un-
questioned honesty and admitted ef-
ficiency, has more than once proved
valuable. In the Cornwall Canal con-
tract alone, he saved the country 823,-
000 annually, or in all, a million. dol.-
a_
—Surely this is it time of war and
rumors of war. With the Russo -Sap
war in full swing, the recently threat-
ened outbreak between Norway and
Sweden, and the severe tension be-
tween France and Germany, there
was enough horror for this old world
to contemplate. Now, comes the
startling news that a mutiny is feared
in India. It has been a wonder to
many, how for so long, a handful of
Europeans have been able to control
the millions of Efindoos in that far-off
land. A mutiny there, among na-
tives, armed with the latest type of
rifles and drilled by British officers
would be a calamity indeed, for the
' horrors of the Indian mutiny of years
• ago are not forgotten, The writer's
eldest brother was then a resident of
Calcutta, and escaped with his life by
swimming eight rivers. A repetition
of those scenes is to be dreaded. We
are evidently some distance yet, from
the time when "nations shall learn
war no more."

CONFIRMATION SERVICE,
His Lordship, the Bishop of Huron,
paid his first official visit to St. Paul's
Church on Sunday last, and in the
evening administered the rite of Con-
firmation. There were thirty-three
candidates, and His Lordship address -
&I them from John's gospel, 18 : 37—
"Art Thou a Kng then ?" He noted,
lst---A. King rules a Kingdom. You
are coming forward to -night to pith-
licly eaefess that you are citizens of
Christ's Kingdom, and as such, you
must be loyal to your King. It is a
privilege as well as a responsibility.
It is a privilege to be proud of, that
we are 8ubjects of King Edward, but
a greater privilege to be subjects of it
Xing that eever dies. We must fight
His battles And be on the side of right
against, wrong. 2nd—Christ's King-
dom is in the world but not of the
world. Any kingdom that aspires to
be other them a wordly kingdom, will
fall, Rome for instance. Christ has
given His subjects rules for their guid.
mice and a knowledge of their duty to
their Xing. Myst—prayer. Second—
reedieg end memorizing of God's
woul. ThiEd—Using the power of the
Holy Spirit. God gives us the power
but will not force us to use It. We
nowt use power, if we woold be good
soldiera of jestte Christ.

the number of eandidates presented
by the Rector, and also admired the

class of thirteen, presented by the
Itootor, It., ltdoion4a,
—The proposa,—I to increase the ses-
sional indemnity of members of the
House of Commons to $2,500 should
be strongly opposed. There may be a
few men in the House who are worth
that, but there are a great many
worth considerably less, and again,
some are worth nothing at all, except
as "gas" machines. With the expen-
diture soaring near the eighty million
mark, in a country a six million in-
habitants, it is time to look around
aud see where economy might be
practised, instead of seeking unneces-
sary avenues of expenditure. Econo-
my I did we say ? The present Gov-
ernment will never go down to history
as an economical administration. The
"economy" plank in the Liberal plat-
form was torn up, sawed up, broken
up, and burned up, long ago, and the
expenditure has nearly doubled in
eight years. For this reason, if no
other, the electors will not take kindly
to the proposal to add $1,000 to the
sessional pay of men who are already
well paid for all they do, 13ut, says
one, the sessions are long I Well,
then, cut out half the "gas," get down
to business in the real interests of the
country; get through and go home,
say, in three months at the longest.
It is said that it costs $20,000 a day to
defray the expenses of the House, so
that the "gas" eosts the country
limey. We might say that if any of
the M. t).'s are dissatisfied with their
pay,. they won't have to look far for
the fellow they defeated, who will no
doubt be quite Willing to accept the
job at the present figure. Some of
them have felt very sore since their
.defeat, and would julep at the chance.

One Dollar SavedaE
R:p074,8e s Ten Doi.
The average Man does not save to
exceed ten per cent. of his earnings.
He must spend nine dollars in living
expenses for every dollar saved. That
being the case he cannot be too care-
ful about unnecessary expenses, Very
often a few cents properly invested,
like buying seeds for his garden, will
save several dollars outlay later on.
It is the same in buying Chamberlain's
Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy,
It costs but a few cents and a bottle
of it in the house often saves it doc-
tor's bill of several dollars, For sale
by all druggists.
