The fine way in which the paper supported the Cru sade For Christ, the interesting and picturesque special edition ; with pictures of the churches, ' their pastors and guest ministers, special notices of all the- meet | ings and reports of the same all combined to endear the paper to all its readers.

We read the editorials, too, for our editor is a progressive man and a clear thinker. Miss Laura Curtis is at home after two months in St. August ine and Jacksonville, Fla. Mr. and Mrs. John A.
