A hotel dinner in Lucknow four months ago was 25e, now it is 00c. Why? Anniversary sermons wilt be preach- ed in Lucknow Pveobyterian Church next Sunday. The fine new Presbyterian Church on the 2nd will be opened up a week from Sunday. Tn Lucknow house-cleaning is in full swing, and every one works, but fath- er. Poor father. Treating at the bar is bad, very bad. Is it not a reflection upon tem- perance people that they follow the same practice in the restaurants, Travellers to town early come, Work like lightning to get done At ev'en time, away they hike, To stay all night, they do not like. Did it ever occur to you 1Ir. Editor the absurdity of total abstainers call- ing themselves temperance people ? How can (I ask) a man be temperate in that which he abstains from com- pletely ? Evidently W, J. Spindler believes in catering to all kinds and conditions of men. We noticed in his window on Saturday, amongst a variety of other cakes, there was Devil Cake and Angel cake, and sad but true, the people's tendency seemed to favour the Devil food, In the estimation of many the electric lights of Lucknow are a wee bit high ; they go out sharp at mid- night, and on the "straight," each light costs 75c per month, and no morning service either. The sooner Lucknow now owns her own electric tight plant, the sooner will the minis taunt of cost be reached. Allow me Mr. Editor once more to comment on local option. The editor of the "Sentinal" in one short para- graph is very optimistic. What he says Sir, is true, as far as it goes. But is it fair in a case like this to look at one side only ? Should not the pros and the cans be placed together, in order that the cons may be rectified, so that the pros may shine forth with greater splendour. He speaks about accommodation that a restaurant can offer. The restaurant he refers to is a good one, but it cannot furnish sample rooms for the travellers, neither can it furnish beds, I have known the two hotels to be taxed to the limit on more than one occasion, and now that the large one is closed, Mr. McGarry can not extend his walls like an umbrella, and ladies coming to town with their husbands, after their shopping is over, have no pleasant waiting rooms wherein to wait until their hubbies are ready to go home again. Travel- lers coming on the late train will find Mr. McGarry a genial host, and good entertainer, but they run a risk of either dreaming in a chair, or sleeping on a table, as his accommodation now is taxed often to its very limit. A troupe staying over night in town could hardly be considered unless they bunked in the Opera House, or reclin- ed beneath the star -lit canopy of the sky. The editor of "The Sentinel" writes some good articles, but now he seems unable to suggest an antidote that will convert this chaos of con- fusion to order. In speaking on local option matters do not imagine that I see no redeeming features whatever in local option law, but the after -math is not so luxuriant as some had fondly anticipated. There are bleak places to plant, tender blades to nourish, and rough places to be made smooth, 1E1 N WHITEj H.
