He comes well recommended and we bespeak for him a good share of patronage. Serioxjs Accident. â€" One day recent- ly, wtile Wm. Mason, of this village, and family were driving out to visit a friend in the country, part of the har- ness gave way, causing the horse to run and kick the occupants were thrown out and a little daugbt.er had her scull fractured. She is yet in a precarious condition. Wc regret to have to refer again to the accident by which Alfred Moffat lost his eye. A communication in last week's Advance makes strong insiniaations that our reference to the matter in the Stamdabd uf the previous week was misleading, and intended to convey the idea that the injury was done maliciously. A lawyer may make black appear white and vice versa, but no unbiassed mind could put such a construction an said item. There was no intended harm on the part of any, neither was any one to blame in particular; it was purely accidental. DisTBiCT Meeting. â€" The annual meeting of the Owen Sound District was held in the Methodist Church Markdale, on Wednesday and Thursday last when some 17 ministers and as many lay were prsent; Bev J. Owin Sound, Superintendent of the District in the chair. The meeting was harmonious through- out, and the general results of the past year very satisfactory and encouraging.

Huntington died in New York last week. Faithful prayer always implies co- relative exertion and no man can ask honestly and hopefully to he de- livered from temptation unless he is himself honestly and firmly determin- ed to do the best he can to keep out of it. Where you are, whatever your sta- tion, there, and in that station, serve God. EstabUsh in your own heart the principles of a Christian life and in your home the atmosphere of a christian household. Be regular in your habits of prayer, search the Scriptures daily, resist temptations courageously and do good gladly. The practicij life of the Christian comprehends three distinct elements. We have to do the will of God in our bueiness this is working. We have to oppose our sin and resist tempta* tation this is fighting. We have to endure with cheerfulness and submis- sion whatever cross the Lord Jesus lays upon us this is suffenng. A thoughtless boy with a shining pail went singing gaily down the Sale, to where a sad-eyed cow with a brindle tail on clover sweet did herself regale. A bumble bee did gaily sail over the soft and shadowed vale, to where the boy with the shining pail was milking the cow with the brindled tail. The bee lit down on the eow'a right ear, her heels flew up through the atmos- phere, and through this leaves of a big oak tree the boy sailed into eternity. A Scotch dominie, after relating to his scholars the story of Ananias and S\pphira, asked them "why God did not strike everybody dead who told a lie." After a long silence, one little fellow got to his feet an4«9cclaimed â€" "Because^ sir, there wailKka be ony- bodyleft." ^^ By the 1st July th* C. P. B. will b* absolutely free from Government connections; its railways, its lands, its everything, will be free from the Government lieu; and the only con- nection ol any kind it will have with the Government will arise out of th* fact that it ha* deposited with th* Government over $12,000.000rin cash to guarantee the payment of a three per cent, divided to shareholders for the next seven and a half years. â€" [Woodstock Free Pre^s. A Yankee woman recently married a Chinese laundrymah, and in three day* thareafter the nnhai^y Celestial appeared at a barber shop and ordered hi* pigtail to be cut off, saying m axpUnation "Too muchee yank." A talking match between two parrots was to take place in Mt. Forest on Queen's Buihday. Chesely roller rink was opened week before last. The Bible, Viewed merely as a human or liter- ary production, the bible is a marve- lous book, and without a rivd. It embraces works of forty authors, re- presenting the extremes of society, from the throne of a king to the boat of a fisherman it was written during a long period of sixteen centuries, on the banks of the Nile, in the desert of Arabia, in the land of promise, in Asia Minor, in classical Greece and imper- ial Bome. It commences with the creation and ends with the final glori- fication, after describing all the inter- vening stages in the relations of God and the spiritual composition: it raises to the highest heights and desends to the very lowest depth oi humanity; it measures all states and conditions of life; it is acquainted with every grief and every woe it touches every chord of sympathy; it contains th* spiritual biography of every human heart; it is suited to every class of society; and can be read with the same interest and profit by the long and the beggar, by the philosopher and the chdd; it is as universal as the race, and reaches beyond the limit of time into the regions .of eternity. Of all the books in the world the bible is the only one of which we never tire, but which we admire more and more in porportion as we use it, Like the diamond, it casts its luster in every direction; like a heal- ing herb, the harder it is pressed, the sweeter is its fragrance.

A face that cannot snule is never good. We like to give in the sunlightand to receive in the dark. Prosperty nnmasks the voice; adversity re- veals the virtues. Experience is the name men give to their follies or their sorrow. The wayes of happiness, like throes of light are colorless when unbroken. Eternity is long enough to make up for the ills of our brief troubles in life. If yon would not have affliction visit yon twice, hstea at once what it teaches. A man in any station can do his duty, and doing can earn his own respect. Donotoact your burdens upon other^s. Best them between yourself and heaven. If yen assume the garb of a fool, are yoa very sure that you have net a natural right to it. There is nothiog more neoessaiy than to know how to bear the tedious moments of life. Betribute stands with uplifted ax, and col tnre, rank and robe oi sanctity oannot stand its Mow. If oar whole time was spent in ^muring ourselVM we Aould find it more wearaoue than the hardest day's work. Never speak evil of another while yon are under the inflnenoe of envy and malevoloioei but wait till your spirits are oooled down, that yen may better jud^ whether to utter or suppress the matter. There is, perhaps, no qnality whieh has a more prevading influenee in giving oolor to the whole ehaiaoter than the strietest truth- fulness for it is the fouudati^-stona of honesty and an all prevading integrity.
