We are pleased to learn that the cui- 'ployers of Mr. Bert Winfield have showu their appreciation of his services by a substantial increase in salary. Miss Bell and Miss McNair of Huron Township visited Mrs. Fisher for a few days. Mr, William Garton returned Satur- day night from Michigau where he has been working all summer. He reports that altho the season was a very wet one there, yet crops were good and farmers prpsperous. Mr. Edward Miller of Toronto; Mr. William Miller of Watford and Miss May Miler of London spent Thanks. giving with Mrs.Thos. Miller. Miss Peaehie Sanderson of Gerrie has beeu visiting her uncle, Rev. .0 0.Kaine. Miss Floreuce Graham, of Wingham is spending a few days in this vicinity tho guest of Miss Addie McClenagan. Favorable weather, able, eloquent, practical sermons, large,iuterested, liber- al congregations and excellent singing were the characteristic feature' of the Presbyterian anniversary held last Sun- day. "Morning and afternoon the eh argil was full, but in the evening the church was peeked to the doors. Rev. W. J. Clarke, of London, although suffering from a severe cold, by his calm, logical persuasive eloquence charmed all who heard him and fully sustained his repu- tation as one of the foremost preachers in Canada. In the morning he chose 1st Chron. 4th 0-10, "And Jabez was more honorable than his brethren and his mother called his naive Jabez saying 'because I bare him with sorrow,' And Jabez called on the Goa of Israel saying 'Oh that thou wouldst bless nee indeed and enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with ins and that thou wouldst keep me from evil that it may not grieve me.And God granted him that which he requested. Tho speaker said he had no excuse to offer why the writer turned aside from a chronology to give a biography of one man but he wan ted to draw some lessons from it. In every community there are some men more honorable than their fellows, perilaPe because of physical strength, perhaps because of riches or great natur- al beauty but Jabez stood out because of strength of character. There was about him as about every man a little of his ancestors bat in every man there is something indefinable by philosophy as if God had given to each one a little of the divine. Character is what a man is and is all he eau take out of the world with him. Jabez began his life in sorrow. It may have been national or private sor- row, we know not but from this he got his name. Merriment is a characteristic of childhood but when very young Jabez learned that life is no merry game but a stern reality. He learned that which some never learn, namely. that he was not man enough to brave the world, and he got from this faith in God to guide him. Faith is'the conscious, constant, continuous belief that God is everywhere and cares for you and me. Jabez learned the best lesson. he made the greatest gain he could have made. His prayer was first for prosperity. This is not wrong. Prosperity is a good thing and poverty has no virtue in itself. The most peculiar thing in the world is the passiou for wealth. But Jabez prayed for prosperity that God might be with him. He prayed for safety. No doubt he thought of his temporal interests as the evening might come and destroy his i property but he wanted power to resist I temptations which. would injure his character: God granted his request. We should ! make his prayer our own daily not lip but heart petition and God will grant ' our requests also. Xn the •evening he chose the words of Mlatt, 11-28. "Comeunto me .a11 ye that hibor and are heavy laden and I will give you rest." Mankind is always dis- satisfied. There is an apparently insati- able longing for something he has not in every man's breast. We crave sympa- thy, love and protection. The happiest hours of life are those when as child or boy or man wo commune soul to soul with those we love. We may dream of bliss, of freedom from labor or from burdens but it comes not by natural means. Men have tried to satisfy their craving for rest in two ways. First by change of position in life. The school- boy looks forward to the blissful time when he can stop school. The boy learning a trade longs to be nbt au em- ployee but an employer. The business man hopes to rest 'when his fortune is made but it is not possible. The long - big for that indefinable something ig still there. They have tried to satisfy it also by a Conhtant, conscious, self•con- twined, self-controlled effort to meet everything es it comes, right in the face, to endure all the trials of life without murmur, to be masters of 1:beir own, seals. Them is something admirable hi. this lint it does not sncoeed. Christ's is the only true %vay of. finding rest. Ho will give it if we seek' it. There is no one creed, no one doctrine, no one me- thod that is elastic enough for all. The PERSONALS, Mr. F. G Sperling was in Walkerton this week on business. Mr. J. E.

An Interesting Stery From an Icelar.- die Settlement. From the I4igberg Vinnipeg, Man. The readers of Loglerg have long been familiar with the virtues of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills through the well authenticated ouree published in theca) coluwus each week. Many of our readers are also able to vouch for cures which have come under their own ob- servatiou, This week "Logberg" has received a letter frotu one ut its readers, Mr. B Waltersou,, a prosperous farther living at Bru, iu which he gives his own experience iu the hope that it may bene- fit some other sufferer, Mr. Walterson says: "Some years ago I was suffering se greatly frvtn rheumatism iu toy limbs that I was for a long time unable to do any work. I tried in. many ways to ob- tain a cure, both by patent medicines and medicine prescribed by doctors, but without obtaining any benefit. I , haw Dr.•Willir►ms' Pink Pills advertised in the T:ogborg as being a cnre for this trouble. and determined to give it a trial. I bought a dozeu boxes and be- fore half of them were used I felt a great change for the better, This improve- ment continued from day to day, and before I had used all the pills I was completly cured. Since that time I have never had au attack of this tionble. After this I used the pills in several other cases and no other medicine has been so beneficial to uie. I feel it my duty to publicly give testimony to the merits of this wonderful medicine so others similarly afflicted uray be led to try it." If you are weak or ailiug; if your nerves are tired mud jaded, or your blood is out of condition; you will be wise to use Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, which are au nnfailiug euro for all blood and nerve troubles. But be sure you got the gen- uine, with the full name "Dr. 'Williams' Pini: Pills for Pale People" on the wrapper around every box. Sohl by all. mediciue dealers or sent post paid at 50c a box or six boxes for $2 50 by writing direct to the Dr.Williauis' Medicine Co., Brockville, Out. YRL•'SBYTERIAN ANNIVERSARY. Mr. Jos.

In the afternoon the able and eloquent pastor of the church preached from the text Isaiah 32: 8:-" And a num shall be as a hiding -place from the winds and a•covert from the tempest, as a river of water iu a dry place. as the shadow of a great rock in a weary hard". In every branch of work, in science, in art, in history, in law,in medicine and sculpture there have been some men who stood out head and shoulders above their fellow -men. In science we have a Newton, in sculpture an Angelo, in law, a Blackstone. an:l iu medicine a Rnsh. Wo cannot conceive of electricity with- out Edison, of wireless telegraphy with- ont Marconi, of a history of United States withont George Washington. of Mahommedanism without Mahomet, of Buddhism without Buddha so we can- not conceive of Christianity without Christ. This rock is the ideal man of Israel for whom Isaiah has searched all his life. He stands out as a picture of immortal beauty against a dark - ground sia and misery. It symbolizes three things: A philosophy for roan, (2) shelter, a relief a helper for man and (3) A duty for man. Tho speaker 'urged all his hearers to be men in the fullest sense of the term and to strive to portray in their early lives the ideal pictured in his text. The church was tastily and prettily decorated. Arches of evergreen sur- mounted all the wiudows, while above the dome in front the words "Glory to God in the Highest" stood out iu bold relief. From behind the choir al,ove came the comforting message, "The Lord is in his holy temple." The offer- ing $250 was the largest in the history of giving in Whitechurch and certainly justifies the forward step which the congregation has taken in dispensing with their annual tea meeting The singing by the choir of the church assited by Messrs. John and Angus Gordon of Landsido was the best we have ever .heard at an anniversary in this church. For the fact that it far excelled the last few years much credit is due the leader Mr. R. W. Simpson who spent many hours of painstaking effort in training them. In the morning they rendered the authem"The Lord is my Shepherd" the solo part being taken by Miss Frankie Wilson. In the afternoon they sang "Make a joyful noise" the solo part being taken by Mr. John Gordon. In the evening the andeuce was given a real treat in the singing of the authem "They shall walk in the light." the solo being suug by Mr. Robert Simpson. This anniversary has done much to make the pastor more deservedly popular with his people. HAM OUR GREAT • Clearing Sale Still going an Shylock was the man who wanted a pound of human flesh.
