We have before us acopy, of Rod and Gun. a monthly magazine, pub- lished in Woodstock. It looks all right and the publishers recommend it as A 1. You can get it for a dollara year if you want it. They don’t ask, us to send any money for it. With the magazine which they send, with their compliments, they send also a notice containing twenty-three lines, which they ask us to publish, and also promise to put us on their "complimen- tary list†if we publish a short notice every month. A short notice from these fellows means anything from , twenty to ï¬fty or perhaps a hundred ’lines, say they average twenty lines, for twelve monthsâ€"240 lines in all. 240 lines at 5c amounts to $12.00. In return for this small favor we get a $1.00 magazine, and we’ll have to imagine that it’s worth eleven dollars to be on the “complimentary list†of the publishers. 'No thanks, when we get- sporty enough to need will be intaesting to watch the papers that bite. " The cfl'erings \\ hich were very lib- ? eral considering the year and the 3 strain which has been upon the people g in erecting the church, will be used to 3 defray expenses in connection with the ‘ buildiNg of the ediï¬ce. The church, which is built of White 1 brick is situated on the highest piece of f land on the 2nd (Jon. of Egremont and : can be seen for several miles in every diâ€" rection. It is 2.8 ft. by 60 ft. from out~ side to outside, has a basement 9ft. high and is built after the gothic style. The ornamental windows, which are very beautiful, were purchased from the Hobb’s Manufacturing (‘10., of London, 3 and the seats, which cannot be surpass“1 ed for material and ï¬nish. for the money, are the work of Mr. W. Smith, of Desboro. Sheds have also been built and when all accounts are settled both church and sheds will be practi- cally free of debt. On the following evening, Monday Nov. 13th the Rev. R. S. W. Howard, M. A. Rector of Christ’s Church, Lon- don. delivered his illustmted lecture on Bunyan‘s Pilgrimsz Progress. Mr.~ Howard is a. lecturer of rz-tre ability in his clear and earnest way so told the story of Pilgrim that few if any of the crowded audience could help feeling much impressed by his words, During the evening the ladies of the congregation together with friends of other denominations served it sumptu- ous tea in the basement of the church. At the evening servxce Ina-my were unable to gain even standing room and were compelled to return home. The Bishop chose for his text 1. Cor. 3: 12 and again preached a. most able sermon with which all present were delighted. The Choir during the offertory ren- dered the anthem, “Praise Ye the Lord.†Much praise is due to the members of the Choir for the able manner with which they carried out the musical part of the servxce. During the Offer-bury Tri uiLy Church Choir, of Durham, sang very accept;- ably the anthem “I \VillExtol Thee.†his Lordship took for his text; Gen.
