EXPECTATIONS EXCEEDED.

The reality was so far beyond my con-
Etptiou that my enthusiasm knew no
Bounds. We think that we get some idea
|Cf the fair from what we see in the en-
cravings in the magzines and pictorials.
|Ihe fact of it is that it cannot be put
|uon paper, nor can words express the
grandeur of the scene One hears, con
stantly, regrets that all this magnifi-
|cence must end in few short months.
We We're struck with the sudden growth
of grass and flowers Ground
lowered with debris and bare of
hegetation as a billiard ball, covered in
! lew days with moss or flowers that look
as though they might have rbeen there
for many years. Many persons are wait
ing until September or October to see the
fair My advice is come now. The last
month of the exposition will be crowded,
ii it is possible TO crowd the ample
Grounds. The weather is more beauti-
1uL, cool and sunshiny Frost will kill
the flowers and foliage plants by the first
of October, and the weather will be
chilly ON the lake shore Everything
a00utthc fair is fresh and at its best
This may not be the case later on.

EDITOR CHRONICLE :-I have beer
reading the various letters in your paper
about the church troubles in Liacolui
which are said to have been made about
one year ago. 1 have been watching with
much interest the outgo Of the new soci'
iety (called Uniouist). knowing tnat the
other society (caIIed Methodist, is aole to
take care of itself-because the founda-
tim was laid years before was born.
have been wondering If the new society
would hire minister to guide them
through their lonely pilgrimage +! Rumor
has it that they had. Some say that It IS
Presbyterian lady; others say that 1t Is
Baptist, aud some say one thing aud
some another. Perhaps "Honest Metho-
dist can unravsl the mystery around
which so much clusters. Honest Meth
odisf' says the new society took one hun
dred of the wealthy, refined and intelli'
gent from the church-leaving behind
those of limited means and no refinement
or intelligence. 1t does seem real bad,
but some times imagination becomes
real. 10 some individuals. think Hon
est Methodist is somewhat mixed IN I'M
Imagination as we'll as in profession
Well, I heard that this new Sabbath
School that Honest Methodist" says IS
SO intelligent, has a teacher who said that
the Devil was in heaven and there had to
stav for centuries. I think the teacher
has missed his calculation; for, by obser-
vation, he is now in Lincoln. 1 heard
that this wealthy zone hundred" did not
paw the minister-though he talked real
nice TO them. How that little colony of
kindred spirits does grow. heard that
their number had increased the average
attendance in the NJ. F. Sabbath school
to more than ever before. Then there is
the deposed leader aud the other officials
and they are all Methodists. They all
told me that they were never more pleased
than now, for they eau now live in chris
tendon IN perfect peace-no matter whleh
way the current runs.
The report OF the school does not now
have to be carried into the annual con
ference under an assumed name--which
has been another way in the past of tell
ing the truth aud shame the Devil"
Then there are the two ladies that "Ino"
said we're pretty, who were deputized to
solicit money for the missionary cause.
One was a Methodist, the other an Union
ist. Well, they returned after many days;
when it was found that the lady OF the
"little colony" had the prize.
Then there is the Endeavor--well, /
had heard so much about it, thought I
would give il visit Honest Metho-
dist" said the little colony did try to freeze
it out; but what could hear whilst there,
IS was about "freezed, irtzen and frozed
out" However, there were enough to
say the prayer: Father watch between
me aud thee, when we are absent one
from another.
