accepted upon condition that tha coal

1t has been the custom heretofore
to accept the weight at the niue az
billed by tue railroad company and
there has been considerable shrink

beeu obliged to stand. By having It
weighed as delivered the board believe

cided to do away with the free text

have been hearing from the patrons Of
the school in opposition to the move.
At the meeting last evening F. NJ.
Davis who opposed the doing away
with free teAt books at the time tha
resolution abolishing them was pssk
ed, moved that that resolution II n.
considered and that the district loon

The question was pretty thoroughly
discussed. most Of those present
seeming to be IN favor of reconsiding
the resolution aud continuing to fur

evils from our lives; the empty space
must be filled speedily with worthier
purposes. and holier affections. Jesus
spoke once OF a man from whom an
unclean spirit was cast out, who swept
and garnished the place, but brought
no holy purpose home to dwell, and
the evil spirit returning found room
for himself and seven spirits worse;
so that the last stage of that man was

Ply phrase Of the great Chalmers, 1.-The
expulsive power OF new affection
The temple of the heart should be

are holy and pure. God seeks as his

with all diligence; for out of it are the
issues of life" There is a sacred
shrine in the soul of man within which
traffic and barter have no lawful
place. ..=s~ ...~.. 49,.
1t is the purpose of the celebration
of this Easter season to bring our
hearts into close sympathy with the
, spirit of the successive days. Can we
doubt that message to our own hearts
of this day of the cleansing of the
temple? Ought it not to be for all
who are seeking to follow the foot
steps of our Lord, day of searchings
of heart that all that is unholy may
be cast out; day of digging about
the roots of our souls that we may
discover the causes of our unfruitful-
ness, and of conservation of purpose
that our lives be no more barren nor
unfruitful? If the day shall bring to
US such meditations and resolves, then
shall our Lord, coming this day to the
inner temple of the heart, find in it a
shrine for his own indwelling.
