Harbottle has purchased from Mrs. J. H. Hunter the property up town that was occupied many years ago as the office of the Review. We are not going into a lengthy dis- cussion of the Cement QuestiOn this week. Suffice to say we have plenty of marl for generations to come. In one place last week a large bed was discovered twenty feet in depth and below that there were nine feet of good clay. Hundreds of acres are available, all of which may be reached from the Company’s property at a comparatively small cost. We point- ed out last week that $110,000 of the present year’s output so far represent- ed a profit which had gone towards paying the debt incurred during the construction and experimental years of the mills existence. In the face of such prosperity it would be nothing short of suicidal madness to move the plant, and we feel quite confident that the bulk of the shareholders will think often before they agree to any such foolishness. Some of the Directors who are apparently anxious for a move are not very heavy stockholders, and an examination of the stock sheets will reveal the fact that some of the officials are not burdened with a heavy load of stock in the concern. Every sensible shareholder will vote solidly against the conversion of a paying ce- ment mill into an unsightly junk heap. It is not a usual thing to reduce the price of Millinery so early in the season. We want. to clear everything out, however. and up to Christmas we will offer any of our trimmed stock at a great reduction, Lambton Street.

Miss 'l‘raill, were in town over Sunday visiting friends. Miss Traill lately returned from Brandon, Man. Mr. Esdon Wolfe left Monday morn- ing for Mt.

We wish him success, hope he’ll at- tend strictly to business, meet with rapid prmnotion, and escape the swell- ed heud young lmnk cleijks are so like- ly to develop. Mr. Wm. Glass left last week for the North-\Vest, where he intends to en- gage in missionarv work in connection with the Methodist church. Mr. Glass was a faithful servant of the furniture company here for the past four or five years, and had charge of the shipping department. He was a young man against whom nobody could speak ill truthfully. For some time he has been thinking of the ministry. and from what We know of his honest. Christian character, we take pleasure in wishing him every success. Mrs. John Kelly is in Tomaso this week. M R. 'I‘Hos. SWALLOW has purchased from Mr. W. Sharp his property on Gamfmxa St. at present occupied by J. Levine. ON Mommy lasu Mr. and Mrs. Ben. \Villiams received intelligence that their son \Vesley was ill of typhoid fever, and is at present in the hos- pital at Brantford. Only a week or so ago the young man was a visitor at his home here, and though not feeling well had no thought that anything like typhoid had taken hold of him. Mrs. \Villiams left this ‘Vednesday morning to see him. \Ve are pleased to state his condition is not at all serious. THE Town Council has seen fit to put a couple of men with a team on the street to clean off the loose mud to he found on top. This is very good so far as it goes, but we think the whole business of street and road making should be undertaken in an entirely different way. Our opinion has long been that we have altogether too much “tinkering” and not enough of road making. Some time ago we gave our views in this paper to the effect that a certain portion of road he made every year and made of such perma- nent character that it wouldn’t need any more doctoring for many years to come. A halfa mile or a mile on a certain street, concession, or side-road done properly would soon leave a town or township with such roads that year by year the necessary outlay would he getting less and less, until ultimately, a mere trifle would keep them in right shape. The usual stat: ute labor repairs do not give the most satisfactory results. For some time after the work is done, about June every year, the roads are scarcely fit to travel on for another couple of months and by this time the fall rains mix them up into an impassable con dition, stopped only by the winter frosts which makes them quite as bad as the old fashioned corduroys of fifty years ago. As soon as they dry up in the spring they become fairly good and remain so till again disturbed by the Annual Statute Labor Picnic, held all over the country about the same time of the year. We believe honestly that many of the roads that undergo: a system of summer doctoring would1 be just as good a year or two years later if they had never been touched. It is really too bad, it seems to us, to have so much real honest sweat waste ed to little or no purpose in the per- Eformance of Statute Labor when the concentrated eflorts of the whole town or township put on a limited space would make at least one good piece that would take care of itself for many years to come. while other parts in town would receive the same treat- ment.

M 0.0 .â€"< “ We missed it by not charging a quarter.” That was the first sentence that met our ears Monday night when we entemd the door of the Presbyter- ian church and dropped a cent on the plate as a liberal free-will oflering. The man who made the remark was not an Irishman, but his name sounds for all the world like the name of Erin’s Isle. Any one guessing it correctly and sending the name and one dollar to this office will get the Chronicle for one full year. Looking up the steps on both sides of the entrance we soon realized that the church was filled to its utmost cap- acity, and even standing room was at a premium. The Anniversary Enter- tainment of the Church was to be held and a good program had been well ad- vertised in the press and announced from the pulpits. “Silver collection at the door” was the advertised admis- sion charge and the result was a pack- ed audience many ot whom had to stand during the whole entertainment. These anniversaries have become very popular in the Presbyterian Church. and each year seesalarger gathering to attend what is now be- coming recogmzed as one of the most popular, most entertaining and in many respects one of the most inspir- ing events of the season. Shortly after eight o’clock the meet- ing was called to order by Rev. Mr. Farquharson in a two-minute speech. The choir then sung the anthem “ Great is the Lord,” after which Miss Ida W ilson rendered an excellent solo, “The Golden Side.” “One Sweetly Solemn Thought,” a duet by Miss Margaret Hunter and Mr. J. S. Drys- dale was a very pleasing number. Mr. Drysdale next sang a solo “Keep Thou My Soul” after which Rev. Mr. Wil- son, of \Vetlkerton, the lecturer of the evening, was introduced to the nudi- BDCP. The subject was “Thirty years With South Sea Cannibals,” illustrated with lime light views. The lecture occu- pied ahout an hour and a half, and portrayed very graphically the life, labors, hardships and hairbreadth ad- ventures of Dr. Paton’s work as one of the early missionaries. The illustra- tions were good and Mr \Vilson is a clear, forceful and fluent speaker who gave clinching effect to' his utterance by earnest delivery and true Christian zeal. A vote of thanks and the Na- tional Anthem brought the meeting to a close shortly after ten o’clock. The fifth anniversary of the settle- ment of Rev. Mr. Farquharson in the Durham Presbyterian church has come and gone. Special services in connecâ€" tion therewith and the Reopening were held on Sunday last when Rev. Thomas \Vilson, a former classmate of the Pastor, preached, morning and evening. Fortunately. the weather conditions were moderately favorable and large congregations listened with rapt attention to the eloquent and fer- vid words of the preacher who was apparently in his best form, His text in the morning was “Pray without ceasing ” and from these words of the Apostle the preachermade an earnest appeal first that the individual and the family should have stated seasons for prayer and should let nothing inter- fere with these seasons, secondly, for perseverance or persistency in prayer â€"never to leave off asking God for needed blessings until satisfied that God has given the answerâ€"not per- haps the answer desired or in the way desired but still that the answer had been given. Thirdly, that prayer should enter into the labors and duties of every day life. There was no work or duty in which men were lawfully engaged that they should not ask God’s blessing upon them in the performance thereof and it was clearly their boun- iden duty to do so. These three points ’the preacher drove home to the con- science of his hearers with apt illustra- tions and forceful earnestness of speech and gesture. The following report of the Sunday services has been contributed :- \V e had to stand during the whole entertainment and before it came to a close we felt that one at least “ missed it because they didn’t charge aquarter.” The evening sermon was from the words :â€"“In all thy ways acknow- ledge Him and He shall direct thy paths" and was mainly directed to the young. These beautiful words were applied also in three ways. First, ac- knowledge Him in His Wisdom, sec- ondly, acknowledge Him in his Provi- dence and thirdly acknowledge Him in his claims.
