The raised flooring at the end has been made level with the rest, the stairs moved back and the office placed at the rear of the store in the full light of a plate glass window surmounted by a beautiful fancy panel in colors.

The bride, who has acted as organist for same years, was presented with a handsome clock by the con- gregation. The wembers of the Mission Band also gave a chair.

During the last year there has been a great demand for supplementary meetings. It has been found necessary to limit the number of the extra meetings to {our for each institute, when assrstance will be allowed. Superintendent Hodson says that the institutes are progressing favorably, and that had it not been for the elections coming on the time they did there would have been hundreds of new members added to the roll. Special Attraction, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, May 19, 20, and let. Mr. Arthur Dewdney of North Harvey had quite an experience last week in the hunting line, says the Independent. Last fall he had to kill one of his horses, so he drew the ani- mal out into the woods, about a mile away from his house, and left it for bait to catch foxes. The rush of the spring .work being over, he thought the other morning that he would take his breech loading rifle and have a stroll in the direction of the old horse, and see what was around. It was a lovely morn- ing, and the woods in their first blush of renewed life were charming. As he proceed- ed he began to notice that there was something more than ozone in the air, and the further he went the more decided the impression forced itself on his attention. It was the remains of the horse, unmistakeable. The location came ‘abruptly into View, and he observed something ‘ move. As a sportsman he halted and brought his rifle to position. There was another movement, and he saw the head of an animal. In an instant he ran his eye along the barrel: and let fly. A deep growl, and a mighty bound, and Mr. Dewdney perceived that it was a huge bear. It was at least 75 yards oft, and Mr. Dewdney let another ball go whiz. This time the bear discovered his enemy, and with a howl of pain and rage, leaped “towards him. Mr. Dewdney felt for another cartridge, and to his dismay found that he had but one more left. There was no room for chances, so he stood still until the bear was within a dozen paces, and then without a tremor of nervous-{ ness, aimed at the head of the infuriated animal. Crack went the rifle. The bear sprang in the air and swerving to one side,‘ rushed by Mr. Dewdney as he slightly dodged the other way. Mr. Dewdney glanced over his shoulder, to see that the hear was continu- ing his mad rush, and hastened towards home to get more cartridges. Returning in a short time to the spot, he had not to go many paces when he discovered the bear laid out dead. It was a tremendous animal, the fur being long, thick and heavy, and the pelt when stretched out to dry looked like an ox skin The last ball had struck a trifle high, entering the back of the neck, and running along the spinal column. The least bit higher, and Mr. Dewdney would have had a hot time. It was a clcse enough call. â€"The June number of Harper’s Round Table contains the story that cat tured the first prize of the Round Table “ hort-Story Competition.” It is entitled “The Comedy of the Herr Professor,” and its author is Ida Kenmston.
