The following appeared in The Owen Sound Advertiser, referrina to the ex- cellent hostelry of mine Host, Pete Munshaw,- at Eugenia. "This hotel presented a nioat attractive appearance to the Owen Sounders and ihey were not disapixiiuted in the dinner that was served up. Many encomiums were pass- ed upon the pretty arrangements of the dining room and upon the abilities of the cook, whose handiwork was superior to that of some similar functionaries gracing city hotels."

I "It is," he cimfirnied, "» clean centre of [ population. It is a (|uiet village. It is a ; place wnere I would like to raise my lioys. | It is a place which I would rather cliuoKo for that pui-jKise than many other ! towns and villages, in which there are ' jpen l»r riM>ms. You have in Fle.-'her- j ton also a well-conducted newspajwr, which DUgliL to be encouraged by tho ] people of the district. I have fnilud to .see in that newspaper anything that is i not clean or that is not calcukted to ' advance the liest interests of tho com- I niuuity, and Mr. Thurston deserves the j patronage of every well-wisher of the community. I have Ireen in places where j the hjcal paper was a disreputable rag, , and not tit to be put into the hands of ' any family, but you have in The Flesher- | ton Advance a pajjer, which if not 1 preaching morality directly is doing so in- ' directly. The school priviliges possed by Flesherton are also a great inducement to families to stay here." i In conclusion Mr. Little expressed tlie , earnest hope that the rea.sons he had ; given for his removal from Flesherton would be accepted as the only reasons, though lie knew there were always people [ ready to mis-represent the fact.s in such 1 matters. He trusted the coagregjition would continue to prosper, and that they might soon have a pjistor happily settled in the midst of them. F.G.KARSTEDT f General and Hardware Merchant, â- j^ Flesherton, Ontario s Farewell to Flesherton Rev. G. C. Little's Going â€" Some Explanations and a Warm Tribute The Flesherton Presbyterian church was crowded on Sunday afternoon, when Rev. Mr. Little preached his farewell sermon. At the clo.se the rev. gentleman siiid he would try to give an answer to the query why he was leaving the charge. He had been asked privately to state the reason for his going, but he had refrained from speaking on tho subject, a.s he thought it better that the explanation should l)e given in an otheial way. As he looked back over tlie two years of hi.s pa.storate. he felt that he had nothing to regret as far as the treatn.ent of the people and the work of the pa.stonite .are concerned. He was not lea\ing becan.se of any conditions existing ill the congie- gnliiin that would make it unbearable for him to remain. He wa.s feeling perfectly ha|)py. It was true that there had been Some niLsunderstaiidings at first, but. he believed i)a,stor and peo|>le now knew each other better than they did a few months ago. His first trouble was the li>.ss he pef.soii- ally su.stained a few months after he began his work, in the death of the late Mr. VanDusen, and it w.-is no reHection on any one else to s;iy lli.it in the taking away (^f that gentleman ho had lust hi.s right-hand a.ssistaiit. However, he was neither discouraged by that lu.ss, nor by the loss of other faithful workers of the congregation who had moved away. The real cause of his departure, how- ever, arose from the fact that the charge has become unmanageable and unwieldy. It is a field in which a inini.'^ter cnniiot do his best work, as it is at present eoii.sti- tuted. He had been led to believe that some attempt would be made to reduce tho amount of travel iieceK.s;ivy to cover the fieUl. He did not think a minister's time ought to be frittered away in wear- ing out horse shoes and buggy tii-es. Ho felt that he could not do hiii'self justice as a pastor and preacher, and spend so much time on the road. But no step had Ix'on t.iken to change the condi- tion of affairs, and none was apparently being undertaken, an<l he felt it was nece.s.sju'y for the |)re,serv;ition uf his health to m:ike a change. He regretted the necessity for so doing. He had never shirked his duty to .sjive himself, and he had taken little or no recreation since ho came among them. Though granted four weeks' hidic'ays a year, he had only taken four weeks in the two years he had been here, instead of eight, becanse,he believed his work would not permit lif a lunger cos.sation from laKmr. But in the last six month.s he had been warned that he must take greater care of bis throat than he had been doing. He had no rea,son to leave sjive for purely health eousidera- tions, and but for the f.icts he had stated he would not have ju'eaehed in Paisley or anywhere else. He did not think he was mercenary. He was not going to Paisley simply because of the little additional sidary which would be paid to him, but he realized that if he remained here he might develop some throat trouble that would gi'eatly hinder his future for the remainiler of his ministry. Do not, he pleaded, let anyone go away with the imjiression that a minister preaches simp- ly for the .salary he receives. He had men sitting before him who can make double or three times the amount of money i)aid to him. When he entered tho ministry, at the inat.anee of th© Mi.s.sionary Comniitteo of the Presbyter- ian church, he left his home and travelled thirty-five miles every Sunday in the northwest mini.stering to the needs of the settlers, and to-day he wa.s not influenced by financial considerations, but out of Knee Spreads or Duster A full lin^f these yocds can he had at a vory moderate price in wool.
