commend itself to the Judgment of our
citizens.

,-In speaking Of some young men
who were made desperately stomach
sick by drunkenness, and were very
much added as to their brains while
under its influence, fault was found
with the quality of the liquor sold at
saloons. We cannot appre-
ciate any nice distinctions of this kind.
The young men who keep out of billiard
halls aud drinking saloons have no fault
to find with the poison sold there. Ifa
man or boy with his eyes wide open
puts his head into the fire it can't make
much difference whether the scorching
is done by hickory or maple Strong
drink will kill sooner or later, and il a
young man is bound to run his chances
in that way, it is mercy to his friends
to get the worst whisky he can find.
Rev. Potter the evangelist has been
assisting the pastor of the Congrega
tional Church at Aurora in a p-otracted
meeting. Our sympathies have been
with that people ever since we read that
he was expected there, and we were
not in the least surprised to read in a
late paper the following: 'sThe high
expectations raised in regard to the
Rev. Pottcr's advent were not realized, |
and his stay only embraced n period Of |
i've days. The pastor Mr.. Hamlin is |
the meetings himself and is |
some very effective dlscour-
ses with good results" Wellington |
had somewhat similar experience last |
winter and previously. Imported evan
gelists are seldom called for. Few
strangers can labor as efficiently or with |
such permanent results as the pastor |
who is acquainted with the people.
I'm the land of Uuclesam near by |
the cheese market commonly called |
Wellington land flowing with milk

magnetic influences Oft times have a
harm over works Of steel and iron and

reatment and saith within himself:
