The process of bleaching, curing, etc., is very interesting. Plenty of water is an essential feature in this business, and in this regard MT Barlow is highly favored. Before the tannery process begins the skins are first thoroughly cleaned, being submerged in vats of water containing strong alkalis. After the cleansing, the mats are stretched on frames and dried in the open air. Mir Balow, by the way, has just completed an attractive resi- dence on Canter street, of which he is justly proud. The dimensions of the house are 40x29. It was built under the supervision of Messrs Scott and Has kins.

that we can truly WOrB0lp dOQ WlC0 our
 substance. But to have any enthusiasm
 about giving we must enlarge our idea
 of what the church is to do. If we give
 place upon the sermon a platform pro-
 duction and the singing of the choir as
 an artistic performance, we are apt to
 e.sve very little. The second advantage
 Of systemAtic giving is that by means of
 iC all can give, the rich and the poor, the
 young and the old. The rich have no
 vested rights in the houae of God; they
 have no right to absorb the privilege of giving. The poor are not too poor to give; remember the poor widow of whom
 our Lord said, s6he hath given more than
 they all,' remember tho widow of Sarep- ta who was willing to divide with the so Five, for children like to do good
 thines. Children llke to laugh and play and sing, and they like to give their
 ponnIes to God. Tho third advantage cf systematic giving is that 1t saves from capEiciousness.

A MuPderous Plant.

Canadian climber. the physianthus
albens, has received the name of cruel
plant" from its treatment of butter
flies. 1t flowers in the month of Au-
gust, and the butterflies, attracted by
the perfume, hover around it in large
numbers and push their trunks into
the corollas to sip the honey. A pair
OF sensitive vegetable pinchers in the
heart of the flower grips the delicate
p-oboscis. and in spite of struggles to
get free the butterfly hangs suspended
until it dies. Apparently the plant
has nothing TO gain by the death of
the insect, as it is not "ca-nivor-
ous," lice the Venus fiy-trap. In fact,
If the butterfly were allowed TO come
and go it would tend TO foster the
species by assisting GENERALIZATION.
II appears, however, that the cruel
plant came originally from Brazil,
where the butterflies are much stronger
and extricate their suckers from the
trap. We may add that another Cana
dian plant, the Cnicus discolor. is
charged with cruelty. The flower has
a gland which secretes liquid eapa bic
of lining insects which are fond of it
Moreover, they seem TO be stupefed
and poisoned By il, and 10 reason can
as yet be assigned for the deadly con-
sequence.-N. Y. Advertiser.
