COME, ALL YE THIRSTY.


Come, all We thirsty You have an
underlined longing in your soul. You
tried money making; that did not sat
isfy you YOU tried office under gov
eminent; that did not satisfy you. You
tried pictures and sculptures, but works
Of art did not satisfy you. You are as
much discontented with this life as the
celebrated French author who felt that
he could not any longer endure the
misfortunes of the world, and who
said: ''At four o'clock this afternoon
| shall put an end to my own existence.
Meanwhile, must toll on up to that
time for the sustenance of my family. :"
And he wrote on his book until the
clock struck four. when he folded up
his manuscript, and, by his own hand
concluded his earthly life.
There are men here who are perfect
ly discontented. Unhappy in the past,
unhappy today, to be unhappy forever,
unless you come to the Gospel we'll
This satisfies the soul with high, deep,
all absorbing and eternal satisfaction
1t comes and it offers the most unfortu-
nate man so much of this world as is
best for him, and throws all heaven
into the bargain The wealth of
Cr9sus and of all the Rothschilds is
only a poor, miserable shilling com
pared with the eternal fortunes that
Christ offers you today.
In the far east there was a king who
used once year to get on a scales,
while on the other side the scales were
placed gold and silver and gems; in
deed enough were placed there to bal
ance the king; then, at the close of
the weighing, all these treasures were
thrown among the pop1lace. But
Christ today steps on one side the
scales, and on the other side are all the
treasures of the universe, and he says,
"All are yours-all height, all depth,
all length, all breadth, all eternity; all
are yours We don't appreciate the
promises of the Gospel
When an aged clergyman was dying
"a man very eminent in the church
a young theological student stood by
his side, and the aged man looked up
and said to him, Cant you give me
some comfort in my dying hourp'
"No," said the young man; II can't
talk to you on this subject; you know
all about it and have known it SO long
''Well, " said the dying man, lust recite
to me some promises. The young
man thought q moment, and he came to
this promise, 1.-The blood of Jesus Christ
cleanseth from all sin, and the old
man clapped his hands, and in his
dying moment said: That's just the
promise | have been waiting for. The
blood of Jesus Christ cleanseth from all
sin. Oh, the warmth, the grandeur

HOMEMADE MEEDER

Another convenient continuance which,
together with the foregoing one, was
originally described in Popular Garden
from which our cuts are reproduced-is
homemade weeder, made as follows:
Take a section of an old moving ma
chine knife, drill hole in center, grind
all the edges sharp, rivet an iron rod
about foot long to it, passing through
the center hole, and fit wooden handle
10 the rod. You will then have n useful
implement to cut out weeds from among
garden vegetables.

An Important Point in Setting Cabbages.
Many readers have doubtless been
troubled with cabbage growing stalky
and not heading well. 1t is told in
Country Gentleman that if pains are
taken in setting out the plant, to get the
tap or main root set down perfectly
straight, this difficulty will be overcome
Unlike the tomato plant, which will
thrive set down in any shape, have
never seen a cabbage head up well set
with the main root cramped and twisted
up, says the authority quoted.

Interesting Results from Potato Trials.
From the results of potato raising de-
rived from the experience of specialists
and the tests made at the various expert
ment stations of the country, there seems
to be little occasion to doubt that light
seeding for the potato crop is followed by
a far smaller crop than the use Of large
seed would give. Director Sanborn, now
of the Utah station, summarizes the av-
erage of seven years experiment work Of
his own on two college farms of the east
in seeding for potatoes as follows, in the

Introducing Queens.

Mr.. E. A. Morgan, of Wisconsin
writing in The Bee Keepers Review,
recommends in introducing queens the
plan of first caging the removed queen a
few minutes in the cage that is to be
used in combining the new queen. The
theory is that the old queen leaves a
scent in the cage that the bees recognize
and thus mistake the new queen for
their former sovereign. Mr.. Morgan
Itops up the entrance to the cage with
good candy and allows the bees to at
once begin the work, eating out the
candy. He says he has practiced this
method three years, sometimes in terri
bic dearth, and never lost a queen. He
often found a queen laying in three
hours from the time that the old queen
was removed.

COLD, CLAMMY FOG.
Death and Disaster Result From
Darkness in England.

LONDON, Dec. "a. For seventy hours
has London, to all intents and purposes,
been plunged in darkness, and link
boys are making small fortunes plotting
vehicles through the streets by the aid
of torches and lanterns. Regular traffic
and trade are at standstill, and navi-
CATION on the river Thames has been
completely stopped. Many proprietors
of jewelry stores and other such places
have shut up their shutters until the
fog clears away. They are doing abso-
lutely 10 business and fear the visit
alton of thieves. The vapor permeates
dwellings and stores and the darkness
is as intense inside as out. 1t
was thought it would be impossible
for the fog to be any worse
than it was yesterday and the day
before, but today the weather is so thick
that it is absolutely dangerous TO at
tempt to go about the streets. 1t is i'm
possible to see for more than a few
inches in any direction. Fears are en-
tertained that if the thick weather pre-
vails off the coast 1t will be the cause of
many disasters TO shipping, particularly
to vessels in the English channel.
The fog could not have come at
worse time for the London shOpkeepers,
who will, instead of Teaping profits,
have to submit to very heavy losses.
The saddest feature of the situation is.
however. the great loss of life that has
been caused by persons losing their way
and wandering into the rivers, canals
and ponds. Already seven bodies Of
unfortunateS who have fallen into the
river aud been drowned have been re-
covered 9nd the cOrOherS are holding in
quests upon them. Four other men and

that they became lost in the fog. mad
vertently wandered into the river and
miserably persisted. 1t is expected that
when the fog lifts many bodies will be
found floating In them. The cold, damp
weather has been particularly severe
upon persons suffering from lung dis
eases. and a large number of deaths
aScribed to pneumonia and other dis
eases of the lungs have been recorded.
On the river Tyne the shipping in
dustry is almost at a standstill, it being
deemed too dangerous to send vessels of
any description away from their
wharves. The atmosphere is so thick
that the usual railway signals can hard
ly be seen, and engineers are compelled
to use the greatest care in order to
avoid collisions.
Walking about the docks is extremely
dangerous, and three dock cOnStableS,
than whom no one is supposed to be
more familiar with all the intrieacIes OF
London docks, have lost their lives dur
lug the fog. At Leeds three men, while
walking along the canal, lost their way
III the fog, and fell in the water and
were drowned. Over the Thames, from
London TO Gravesend, it appears to be
even heavier than at other places, and
none of the boatmen dare venture out.
Several persons have been killed on the
railways, and altogether it is believed
that London has never before been Wis
tied by fog that has been SO product

MONTREAL, Dec. 24.-In tracing the

new treasurer has stumbled onto the
fact that for the past four years one
Phillip VaIlieres has had a private con-
tract of the government, by the terms
of which he furnished all the public
buildings in the province with every
thing in the way of furniture, but no
price was stipulated, no limit made.
His accounts we're regularly audited
without question and paid, some of the
prices and quantities of goods being
outrageous.
1t is said that he drew hundreds of
thousands of dollars for goods worth
only half what he charged for them. and
it is inferred the ministers stood in with
the surplus. VilIiereS, who is rich,
backed paper for the ministers when
they were short and put bills through
the banks for the government when it
was in hurry for money, OH the latter
transaction charging substantial
bonus. which was always paid without
question.
