Oar Address.
Modes,Iy Puf,


Why it is that the preachers of the
gospel do suot, at least once in year,
preach on the subject of Temperance 2
If there is any doctrine clearly taught
in the sacred writings, surely the subject
of Temperance is that one, for there is
line on line and precept on preceptto be
found in the old as well as the new dis
pensatiou. For a collation. of some of
the passages bearing on this point, refer
ence is made to this department of the
COURIER published on the 22d Of June
last.
In February last resolution was
adopted, by respectable body of citi
zens, requesting all ministers of the Cos
pei to preach upon this subject. and this
reasonable request was published in the
COURIER, that all might be advised of it,
and yet how few have responded.
IF a circus were to come to this town,
and the members af the church were to
attend, or were it publicly known that
members of the church when they visited
cities we're regular attendants upon the
theatre, every clergyman in the land
would be found teaching the homiies OF
the church, aud earnestly exposing in
the pulpit the great MINOR a it y
of such practices, and if not stopped The
church, would be ruined, and the ID
take possession Of the land. Now We
venture the assertion that all the circuses
and theatres in the land have never csus
ed one tenth part of the vice, crime and
immortality that strong drink has done,
and the latter is positiyeIy condemned by
Holy Writ, while the former is one OF
the implied evils, and only sin against
the spirit of the teachings of the Bible.
and not sainst the letter also.
Why is this. Tins

NUMBER OF SHINGLES IN RooF-
j. d. Tate gives to the New York Farm
ers Club rule for estimating the number
of shingles required for a roof of any
size, one which he thinks every mechanic
and farmer should remember. First find
the number of square inches in one side
of the roof; cut off the right hand or
unit figure, and the result will be the
number of shingles required to cover
both sides of the roof, laying FIVE inches
to the weather. The ridge board pro-
vides for the double courses at the bot
tom. Illustration: Length of roof,
100 feet. width of one side 30 feet
I00x30xl44-432,0 900 Cutof the right
hand figure we have 1900 as the num-
Der required.

The scalp, by it's use, becomes white

and dandruff, and, by its tonic prop
critics, prevents the hair from falling
out, as, it stimulates and nourishes
the hair-glands. BY its use, the hair
grows thicker and stronger. In
badness, it restores the capillary
glands to their normal vigor, and
will create new growth, except in
extreme old age. 1t is the most eco
