Winter is fast hustllng autumn from
her throne of the seasons, and will soon
reign q king in her place. The cruel
north wind will soon howl through the
estreet and chill with its frozen breath,
what'er and who'er it touches. Winter
is coming sure; get ready. The coal and
the wood should be in store. The storm
doors and storm windows should be in
place. The north winds breath has
chilled and withered every autumn flower,
has kissed the leaves of green on our
forest trees. and withered and dead they
lie at our feet. The wild geese have
sought southern cline, and our mi
gratory birds that have been summeriug
at the fashionable resorts of the north,
winged their way to the southland where
winter never visits. Yes, winter draws
on apace, and as PAGER he is not slow,
anu get ready, dear friends. get ready.
THE REVIVAL MEETINGS. The meet
ings now being held in the Opera House,
by Evangelist II. w. Brown, assisted by
Mr.. Avis, the singer, continue to increase
in interest. Not only are these meetings
largely attended by people from near and
afar, but very large number confess
having received blessing. It has been
estimated that not less than 100 persons
were converted last week. Mr.. Brown
presents truth IN an original and cbarac-
teristic manner illustrating and empha-
sizing his points with illustrations which
touch every phase of sensluillty in the
heares of his hearers. Mr.. Avis is fine
singer, and not only holds the choir well
in hand, but renders beautiful solos as
the occasion may require. The afternoon
Bible readings, at the Congregational
church, are q rich feast to Bible students.
Mr. Brown is unexcelled in this depart
ment. The meetings will probably close
Sunday evening.
