The n. E. Church Society met last eve

the occasion being donation visit in aid
of Rev. J. A. Crlst-pastor of the church.
The amount realized was $500 being
nearly all in cash. Mr.: Hall and family
so entertained the visitors as to render
the social feature in all respects complete.
The company was quite large-cmbracing
full delegations Of young. middle-agcd
and old people, many of whom reside in
the country. The material aid contrib
utcd was not more an evidence OF esteem
for the pastor and lis wife; Than we're tile
kindly expressions Of good will which
were both hearty and unanimous. After
refreshments had been served and a prayer
offered, Mr.. Hall with a few appropriate
remarks, presented the offering. upon
receiving which the reverend gentleman
responded In fitting terms. These social
gatherings for benevolent purposes are
exceedingly valuable in their influence
upon the public. Any motive which
prompts one person to contribute shate
of his earthly goods for the benefit Of an
other is moral force with Christian:

She led him TO a sofa, and in deep
bass voice called him her souls idol,

was. Seeing his gaze fixed on her boa
constructor like mouth, she remarked :
Darling, see you notice ny large

plain to you the reason OF its unusual
size. When was quite child 1 was

mouth on a projecting meat hook,
which ripped up my face and extended

MR.. n. r. STEVENS:
Dear Sir-We have good reason for regarding
your NEGEVlFE medicine OF the greatest
value. We feel assured that 10 has been the
means OF saving our sons life. lie is now seven
teen years Of age; for his leg, caused by scrofu-
lous affection, and was % far reduc ell that near
ly all who saw him thodght his recovery impossi-

but the faintest hope OF his ever rsllying two Of
the number declaring that he was beyond the
reach OF human remedies, that even amputAtion
could not save him. as he had not vigor enough
10 endure the operation. Just then we COM
menced giving him VEGETINE and from that
time TO the present he has been continuously i'm
proving. lie has lately resumed studies. thrown
away his crutches and cane, and walks about
cheerfully and strong.
Though there ia still some discharge from the
opening where his limb was lanced, We have the
fullest confidence that in little time he will be
perfectly cured.
lie has taken about three dozen bottles OF
NEGETINE, but lately uses hut little, rs he de-
clares he is too well 10 be taking medicine.
Respectfully yours,
