manner that showed him to have a vigor

in the temperance cause. Rev. Bush spoke
for about thirty minutes. He spoke we'll,
as he always does; giving facts which
could not fail to convince, even the most
sceptical Of the correctness of his position
on the temperance question. The audience

And cold the breast that never throbbed to

For mans cares and mans delight was

And curst be he, where'er he move, can

And she wisely gets Spring Blossom to
make you we'll again. -.

1t was as follows when rowing two
ladies down LOch NOiI, one afternoon
last August, / observed what looked like
lHtle stripe OF red brown fur in the
middle Of the lOch. On coming nearer
we saw that it was a squirrel swimming
across, its tail lying fiat on the water.
We then Heard its claws cratching on
the side of the boat, and to our surprise
the little bedraggled sprite appeared on
the bow Of the boat. 1t was evidently
tired, Ter it sat quite still, staring at us
and painting. / TOwed on towards the
shore, hoping to be able to ferry it across.
but after few minutes it scrambled
down into the water again and resumed
its journey, probably frightened at tine
sight Of tie collie dog who was in the
boat. We watched it swimming till it
looked like a small speck close to the
shore, but lost sight Of it before it land
