A pertinent piece of advice in the
columns a a late trade journal, ran
thine—HOwever hard ,yon, may have
worked during 1889, resolve to do a
little better in 1890. It is not a diffi-
cult matter to see when better and
mors work might have been done if
one cares to scrutinize closelY, even
though the vision be defective and pov-
erty to great to purchase a pair of
apecks. We have noticed a few weak
spots in ourselves and inspired by the
above bit of advice, resolved to adopt it
as one of our rules for 1890 and faith-
fully observe it for at least a Week.
We are trying, to put stock in best pos-

Reports are rife that the wheat plant
has sustained considerable . damage.
from the alternate freezing and thaw-
ing which has characterized the weatli-,erduring the season, and that much
of it, especially on heavy clay land,
will be almost a total failure. . It is.te
be hoped that the reports will prove to
be greatly exaggerated. „
We find the following paragraph is
floating upon the newspaper sea, and
do not know how correct the figures
may be; but the farmer's share is not
put too large, at least: '"From a bushel
of corn a distiller gets four gallons of
whiskey, which .retails at $16. The
government gets $3.60, the farmer who
raised the corn gets 40 cents, the rail-
road gets $1, the manufacturer gets
$4, the retailer gets $7, and the con-
sumer gets drunk.
The Brussells .Post suggests the for-
mation of a County League, composed
of the followidg base ball clubs: Wing -
ham, "The Unions," Brussels, Listowel,
Seaforth, Clinton and Exeter; that each
club play one game m each town,mak-
in all fourteen games; that each club
pay a fee of $5, to purchase a suitable
trophy to be presented to the club win-
ning the most games in the series. The
suggestion is a good one, and we hope
it may be acted upon.
On Monday evening last, the memb-
ers of the Exeter Harmonic Orchestra,
met in the Town Hall for disband-
ment. The Sec.-Treas, handed in his
report, which shows the total receipts
for the season to be $54.75, and the
total expenditure $38.49, which leaves
a small balance to be divided among
the members. The Orchestra feels it-
self amply repaid by the benefits it has
received from practice, and the help it
has been able to render to societies,for'
which it has played. A unanamons
vote of thanks was tendered to the
Leader Mr L T. Gilland the Sec. -Tres.
Mn. H. P. Kinsman and the meeting
concluded by three cheers for the new
town band.
The Queen's Birthday fails on Satur-
day this year, and in several places an
agitation Is already on foot to postpone
the formal celebration till Monday. One
argument used is that it is all the same
to Her Majesty whether the day is ob-
served on market day or washing day.
This is the view which the Queen and
councillors have always taken. It is,
only in the colonies where the uniform
practice of celebrating her Majesty's
national on the 24th of May had, been
followed. In England and -Scotland the
magistrates of each town and city fix
on the day which suits the mass of the,
people best. If it is anywhere with in a
week of the 24th no one kicks. Of
course the bankers and public officials
have to observe the actual day as a
holiday, it being so established by law.

tisement in another column.
The Stock Fair.
The Stock Fair held on Tuesday was
not a decided success, owing, no doubt,
to the farmers being busy with their
spring work. This will be the last
until after the harvest has been gath-
ered, when they will be continued
again.

The Fire.
On Saturday night about eleven
o'clock the fire alarm sounded which
caused our citizens to arouse from their
slumbers and ascertain where the des-
troying element existed. It was not
long before it was discovered to be the
old greenhouse on the station road own-
ed by Mr. Isaac Carling, which has
been vacant for a considerable time.
The fire engine was only taken as 'far
as the market as its service was not
needed. It is supposed to be the work
of an incendiary. • Loss small.

Two young men loved the same girl.
'One had $1050 in cash and the other
was -poor. The thousand dollar man
was very much in eiiiheit, and offered
the inoney to the poor suitor as an • in-
ducement for him to leave the field.
The offer was accepted, but when the
girl heard of it she declared her love
for the man who got the $1000. They
were married and have used the money
in starting housekeeping. The dis-
a,pointed suitor has sued to recover the
money. The Jury has not yet decided
the ease.

The Church of England.
The divisions caused in the Church
of England throughout different parts
of Canada by unseemly and unauthor
ized innovations is miich tobe deplored,
In Orilliasthere is mueli trouble, And to
make matters worse, the, difficulty is
being fought out hi the Toronto GIOIA
by members of the congregation. A
Mr. G. H. Hale strongly protest's 'against
singing while on our knees," and he
says "there is no Scripture warrant for
such„a practice." At St. James vestry
meeting, Toronto, a disgraceful wrangle
was entered into, one member charginc,
that church funds *ere used for theb
surplus choir. His exact ' words were,
"You got' your light' shirt brigade up
there rigged out of it." At St. George's,
Ottawa, the greatest confusion prevail-
ed, but the troubles were finally smooth-
ed over by the adoption of the following
resolution ;—"VVhereas, it appears from
the report of the churchwardens that
the receipts of the church have decreas-
ed during the past year, the amount
estimated.for the reduction of the debt
on the building not having been paid,
and that it is believed that the recent
unfortunate divisions among the core
gregation have affected the receipts:
Be it resolved, that the estimate sub-
mitted be not adopted, but that in the
opinion of this meeting,' With A. v, ie w bf
the restoration of that harmony, good-
will and mutual co-operation which
previously existed, it is desired that
the services should be conducted in
every 'particular, as they were previous
to the 1st of. October last." In the
churches of Ascension and St. Thomas;
Hamilton, there were also ugly storms,
but., adds the Spectator, "they were net
as bad. as expected." Such a state of
affairs is much to be deplored, and it is
a pity, that clergymen will, insist on
changes that are contrary to Scripture
as well as being unauthorized by the
Reubricke of the church. They are, in
most cases, Only done for show, and
should in every instance be abandoned.
