crease of almost 25 per cent. over
their taxes Of the preceding year.

Here is a gem from W. E. Chan
ming that is worth more than all that
has ever escaped the lips OF Billy
Sunday: I'm proportion as man
supposes his conviction to save his
orthodoxy from suspicion, or distorts
language from its common use, that
he may stand well With his purity,
in that proportion he clouds and de-
grades his intellect, as well as under
mines the integrity of his charaster. y
! At Arnettsville Saturday night
we had the pleasure Of hearing, for
the first time from the pulpit, the
declaration that,lw can only serve
God by serving hImanitl.
Thirty-three years ago George
Eliot crossed life's iunsounded sea,
and few words concerning the most
intellectual woman that ever adorn-
ed this planet may be enjoyed by
those who admire here genius She
appeared to understand and c0mpre-
hend the motives and ultimate con-
illusions of all the principal theories
that agitate mankind. She Invited
the criticism of the fanatical world
by translacting books condemned by
by narrow minds. She demonstrated
by her social and domestic life her
disregard for puritamcal peevish-
ness. She spent her time reading
great books, conversing with great
thinkers and writing great thoughts.
To penetrate the .profoundest philo-
sophy was to her a joy sublime. To
contemplate the weird. stiffness of
an April twilight, the glorineSs ma
jesty of a summers moon and the
pathetic grendeur of an autumn eve
was a pleasure too deep for words or
tears. She cared more for the ap-
proval of her own mind than she did
for the approval Of the world and
yet she was so humble as to almost
respect the faults of her lowest crit
les. When fame came to her name,
pity for the most debased fled not
from her Heart. He thoughts, as
beautiful as the moonlight waves Of
the glittering sea, will be praised
and adored as long as sentiment lives
and justice abides.
