Scripture teaches that all dis- ease and even death, is the fruit of sin. The Jewish error consisted in be. lieving that all special afflictions were divine visitations for special sins. This error Jesus eorreeted.-Abbott. Mark the contrast between their thoughts and those of Jesus in reply.

Imminent to sidetraek the fiscal contro- 'versy. An attempt was made on the part of the Chamberlain section of the Unionist party to compel Lord Hugh Cecil to resign the Parliamentary seat for Greenwich, but Cecil politely de-l cliued to quit, and in that determine. tion received unexpectedly strong sup- pmt from Sir Alexander Ackland-Hood, chief Government whrp, who, in a pub- lie letter declines to "act unfairly to- wards a. man who has rendered most valuable assistance to the party of which he is a brilliant member," sim. ply because he does not support the Government on the fiscal question. ‘because our Lord performed this act ot mercy an the Sabbath day, and thus ig- nored their traditions. The parents feared the Jews and left the cspisutation of his healing with their son. The Jews then continued to question the man and he became very bold until finally he 13k- ed them to be Christ's disciples. This angered them greatly and they reviled him and spake harshly against Jesus. At this his courage arose still higher, and with great clearness he answered their false reasonings against "the man" who had healed him. They could stand no more, but cast him out of the syna- gogue. Jesus at once revealed himself to the man, who immediately became a true worshipper. Courage to do right, and to speak boldly in defense of tho truth will always bring heaven's bless. ings upon us. 829.074.599.00 This letter, which virthany accords 34.300.391.28 $17,249,744.96 4,506.71 1.29 cavmu 15A.

The case was adjourn- ed for a week, and Cummings was re- leased on bail. This letter is interpreted as showing Mr. Balfour's resolve to thrust fiscal reform into the background as an elec- tion cry, and keen curiosity is excited as to how the move will be met by Mr. Chamberlain. to all Conservative candidates complete freedom of action in fiscal affairs, is re- sented keenly by the Chamberlain group, whose irritation is increased by a letter from Premier Balfour to the Conservative candidate in Buteshire, in which, with reference to changes in fiscal policy, the Premier says: “Im- portant as are the issues thus raised, We must not let them obscure the funda- mental principle of the Unionist party. If I rightly read the signs of the times, the policy of Home Rule only awaits the advent of the Radical party to power to become active, militant and perilous."

Spring orders for dry goods are heavy, and there is a fairly good movement in hardware. Groceries are a little quiet. Collections are fair. General business at London has been a little quieter during the past week, and there has been little doing in the sur- rounding country.
