the church bells were calling to
worship, his faithful soul should
be called to praise iu the Church
Triumphant.
For several years he had fought
against the advance of consumption
iu his system and had been taking
special treatment since last sum
mer. He, with his family, went to I
Plymouth just one week before his 1
death —he having expressed a de- j
sire to die and to be buried there,
beside his boy.
He is best known iu Willi&inston
as the Rector of the Church of The
Advent,in whose chancel he preach
ed his last sermon here on the second
Suuday in June, 1902. Perhaps, no
man ever served here who so easi
ly won and held the hearts of his
congregation as did this man of
God. From his very presence arose
the incense of godliness that made
I one feel that he was indeed
one of God's anointed. With a dis-
I eased body aud failing strength, he
' went about doing the Master's
work —sounding the Gospel call in
language unmistakable and pleas
ing. People of every creed delight
ed to know him and to hear the
words of liie as they fell from his
lips. His life was a benediction aud

1 The peculiar congb which indicates

It may not be generally known
that grapes are almost as good as
quinine for malarial troubles and
that pineapples are a sure curg. for
a sore throat. Tomatoes are per

while oranges act oq 'the kidneys
very beneficially. Lemons are effi

From the number of horses and

" SOJOURNER."
An Indian Territory editor has
this to say of his work:
"Editing a newspaper is a pleas
ant business —ifyou can stand it.
"If it contains many advertise
i meats a subscriber complains that
they take up too much 'space. If
there is a lack of advertising it is
unpopular and the people won't
Have it.
"If we attend church regularly
they say we go for effect. If we
stay from church they say we are
monstrously lieathditish.
"If we accept an invitation to a
wedding they say we are only in
vited to -write it up.' .
"If we go to the opera house
they say we go oti free tickets. If
we are seen upon the streets too
often they say we neglect our busi
ness. Is we avoid going on the
street they say we don't hustle
around after the news.
"If we publish a man who has
brought disgrace upon his family,
the friends of the family never for 1
give us. If wc, out of goodness of
heart, decline to say anything on
the subject, the man's enemies are
disappointed and we are branded
as white-livered cowards."
Polonlus' Advice to His Son.
Give thy thoughts no tongue.
Nor any unproportion'd thought his
act. '
Be thou familiar, but by no means
vulgar:
The friends thou hast, and their a
doption tried,
Grapple them to thy soul with hoops
of steel;
But do not dull thy palm with en
tertainment
Of each new-hatched,
comrade. Beware
Of yitraqec to a quarrel; but being
i».
Bear't that the oppressor may be
ware of thee.
Give every man thine ear, but few
thy voice;
Take each man's censure, but re
serve thy judgment.
Costly thy habit as thy purae can
buy.
° But not express'd in fancy; rich,
~ not gaudy; ,
For the apparel oft proclaims thfc
man.-»-
a borrower nor a lender be;
oft loses both {itself and
friend,
And borrowing dulls the edge of
husbandry.
This above all, —to thine own "self
be true;
And it must follow, [as the night
the day.
Thou canst not then be false to any
