GETTING Started,

One of the great things in life is to
get started. The shores are lined in
every direction with crafts of all sizes
which seem unable to get themselves
launched; they are eager for the wa
ter, but they fail to reach it. A host
of men and women are in this posi-
ton; they are bewailing the fact that
they are not at work, and are going
about in every direction seeking for
openings, but they find nothing to
their mind. Now, while it is true that
there is nothing more difficult in
many cases than to get start in
life, it often happens that the inher-
ent difficulty of the undertaking is
immensely increased by the lack of
practical sense on tae part of the
man or woman who is making the
endeavor Casper Becerra, in Long
fellows poem, waited tedious time
for the wood fit to receive the image
which he meant 20 carve when the
poor material came to hand De-
spairing at last securing what he was
waiting for, he picked up the thing
nearest-a piece of burnt woodland
carved his image out of that. 1t was
a wise decision, but it would have
been wiser if it had been reached
earlier. Too many men and women
wait for "just the thing" they want,
not knowing that just the things one
wants are very difficult to get, and
when gotten, often turn out to be the
very things ones does not want. The
true way to get start in life is to
take the first chance of getting into
the race. 1t may be q very inferior
and unattractive chance, but it is a
chance nevertheless. 1t takes one
out of his stationary, waiting posi-
ton, gets him into the field, loosens
his limbs, and put him into training
for whatever lies before him; and it
often happens that these very un-
promising chances are straight roads
to fortune. No man ever succeeds
who refuses to do anything until he
can do it on his own terms; the ms n
who succeeds is the man who is will
ing to do the thing on any honorable
terms. We must begin as servants
if we wish to end as masters. We
must take what we can get if we hope
finally to get what we want. The
first opportunity is the best oppor-
tunity if it really opens door into
life.-The Christian Union.

Rev. j. o. r. Corliss, pastor of the
Methodist Church at Gretna, Bur-
lington County, N. j., writes very
encouragingly as follows:
DR.. G. w. Kirk, Dear Sir-About
years ago took q heavy cold that
resulted in stubborn catarrh. 1t
increased in severity, gradually ex-
tending downward to the pharnyx
and larynx, thence to the bronchia.
The back Of my throat was covered
with ulcers; my voice lost its strength
and resonance, sometimes fading
away into aspirations. To go out
into cool air was to be filed up with
phlegm and mucous until it was no
pleasure to leave the house. / tried
remedies officinal and remedies pat
ented, with no relief, the disease still
increased in malignance. Radam's
Microbe Killer was suggested to me,
and had some other than yourself
had charge Of it / should have dis
missed it from my mind. Having
confidence in your Judgment, felt
''thers must be something in it." A
faithful use of the remedy has con-
vinced me that there is salvation in
it for every catarrhal sufferer. /
feel improved in every way; health
much improved, voice strong, dis
charges much less profuse, ulcers
healed, hoarseness gone, can get a
full breath of air-can say the RENE
dy Is all that Is claimed for it.
Yours, J. O r. CoRLIss.

A PENNsYLvANIA VETERINARY SUR.
GEoN IN TRoUBLE.-A Pennsylvania
German has been masquerading
around Woodstock, Ont, in the
guise of a cowboy for some time
buying farms and cutting a wide
swath. The field of operation was
in German settlement in Blenheim
township, near the scene of the Ben
wall tragedy. The stranger showed
checks amounting to $250,O00, and'
whether good or not, they mesmer.
lied the neighborhood. He purcbas-
ed several farms in the neig hborhood
at high figures, giving notes for
payment. He then took possession
and began to dispose of the poultry
and stock. He also succeeded in
capturing one of Blenheim's fair
daughters, and they were married.
But he was arrested Monday on q
charge of horse stealing, and it turns
out that he is c. E. Miller, a veterl-
nary surgeon from Pennsylvania,
who is wanted in that State ON sew
eral charges. 1t is also charged
that he has half dozen wives in the
United States.

A SAD ACCIDENT MIR. Elmer
Grimm, aged about Is years, met
with sad, and what might have been
fatal accident on Monday last.
While walking across joist on the
garnet floor of Mr.. Jas. F. Thomp-
sons new residence, on South Queen
street. it either broke or turned with
him, precipitating him to the cellar.
His head struck as he passed be-
tween the joists of the ground floor,
cutting and fraeturing it very badly.
When picked up he was in an uncon-
sclous condition, and has remained
so ever since. he was carried into
the house of Mrs. Thompson. and
Drs. Fiery and Snodgrass immedi.
ately summoned, and all that was
possible, was done for him. On
Thursday he was removed to his
home. Contractor Westenhaver. and
several of the workmen state that
they had walked across the joist lust
few moments before Mr.. Grimm.
and cannot account for its breaking.
1t is to be hoped that although his
condition is precarious, he may still
recover, as he is worthy. hard work
ing young man, and to his bereaved
father. mother, brothers and sisters
we extend our sincerest sympathies.

Diphtheria Carried by a Cat.

The family of Robert Paul, at
Middleton, Wis, has been afflicted
with diphtheria, which was brought
into the house in singular manner.
About four weeks ago stray cat
came to their home and one of the
children handled and played with it..
Although it was noticed at the time
it discharged at the nose and mouth.
nothing was thought of it until soon
after. when the little boy came down
with black diphtheria, one of the most
malignant kind, that the doctor said
he had caught from the cat. The
boy died, then second took the dis
ease and died. The father, mother
and daughter were also stricken
down, and recovered, Allen, the only
remaining son and support of his
parents, cared for them all through
their terrible sickness, holding one
of the boys when dying and prepar-
ing them for their last resting place
with his own hands. When the 9TH
ers were recovering he was taken
down and died.

lumber and railroad ties are shipped
from North Mountain at this season

Woodstock, sister Of Mrs. e. P.
Beall, are sojourning in the village.
The habit of disturbing the old
residents of this place at night SO
frequently INDUCED in by the young
men and boys of this place is one
that should at once be abolished and
the guilty parties should take no
risks in the future that they have no
losses. A word to the wise is suffi-
cient.
Mrs. M. G. McAllister, Mrs. Sallie

were exceptionally good ones, they
were poorly patronized. The Van
