We desire te express our appreciation Of the
liberal patronage bestowed upon us during the
last two years by q generous public. Our bust
ness firm being made up principally of strang-
ers, from distance, we had no reason
to expect the patronage of the community OF
eur adoption, except far It was founded
upon determination to make work compare
favoraby in price and quality with that of first
class city shops, and conviction that, by so do
ing, we would merit and obtain large share of
tAat class Of work. which has not heretofore been
undertaken in this section. but which had to be
brought from the cities The result has proved
the reasonableness of our expectations, and en-
courages US to press forward with renewed ener-
gy end with ever increasing and charging IA
cilities
We invite an inspection of our shops by those
. ntemplating the purchase Of machinery.
He endeavor to make all our purchases for
cash, and having 3 limited amount of capital, we
are consequently compelled to require cash or
negotiable note, at short time, for all work.
For the quality of work, we take the lib
erty of referring to the following gentlemen,
among the many from whom we have received
orders.

Perseverance, of Saints.

If we make self our point of view, and
look from thence at the subject of final
perseverance, we shall be sure to get
false view altogether, because it there
becomes a question of my perseverance,
and anything of mine must of necessity
be doubtful. But if, ON the other hand,
we make Christ our viewing point, and
look at the subject from thence, we shall
be sure to have a correct view, because
it there becomes a question of Christ's
perseverance; and we are quite sure that
He must persevere, and that no power of
the world, the devil, or the flesh, can
ever hinder his final perseverance in the
salvation of those whom He has pur-
chased with his own blood, seeing 'sIIe
is able to save to the uttermOst them
that come unto God by Him" And this
surely is final perseverance. 1t matters
not what the difficulty or what the hos
tile power may be, ''He is able to save
to the uttermost." The world, with its
ten thousand snares, is against us; ''but
He is able" Indwelling sin, in its ten
thousand workings, is against us; but
''He is able" Satan, with his ten thous-
and devices, is against us; but 'He is
able" In a word, it is Christ's ability,
not ours; it is Christ's final perseverance,
not ours. All depends on Him as to this
weighty matter. He has purchased His
sheep, and surelylHe will keep them to
the best of His ability; and seeing thar
''all power is given unto Hin in heaven
and on EARTH" His sheep must be per
feetly and forever saved. Haught could
touch the life of the feeblest lamb in all
the flock of Christ, He could not be said
to have ''all power. ."-Wr. Moody.
