Mr. Cros'/er is an earnest speaker and presents his facts with con- siderable [lower. A cici/.en informs us that no report, of the lite improvements to the Methodist church and the reopeiiiiig services has yet appe'irod in the offioial church paper, lie thinks thij strnn^je and wonders why this " tbusness." Perhaps it is because no official reporter was appointed and those who worked so haid are too modest ti> talk about it. A lady sends us tho following receipt for making bread in from fo. r to five lours. She has herself tried it and pro- nouaces it good: Boil six l:irs;e potatoes, pour the water over two cups of tlour to which has been added one heaping table ipoon of granulated sugar and one of salt; mash the potatoes and add them to the mixture with four quarts of boiling water.

Electric railway matters do not appear to bo aliogethir dead. Tho Walkerton Telescopes says that letters are ariiving thick and fast from Miller Bros, of New York, urging the directors of the propos- ed electric railway to hurry up with the information which the contractors must have before proceedine further with the negotiations. Money they say is very plentiful since McKinley's election, and capitalists are just piii'ng away for an opportunity to invest it Dr. Rolston is gi.ing on with his suit against the directors, the directors are making it hot for the engiiiuer. and old Pew is cursing all and sumlryfir not rushing mailers quicker. Now that the Grand Trunk has reduced its service, the need for an electric railway has become greater than ever â€" Telescope.
