This is th.* most impress- ive feature of his article in Scribiier's for June. Not mat the narrative of wandering, suffermg and starvation fails of interest anywhere. But nil our readers are familiar with true tales of adventure quite as dreadtul and mov- ing, lu what year have we not had many plain accounts from shipwrecked people and explorers Who suflfered as hideously and struggled as gamely as Stanley and his command Of course his aim and the tenacity of his adher- ence to it and the mystery that per- tains to the African interior give dig- nity and romance to his story. But the' moral he dednces from several escapes of bin self and his people is of surpassing interest. Tbe fhigmentary tale is arranged as an explanation and vindication of his preliminary state- ment :â€" "Constrained at the darkest hour to humbly confess that without God's help I was helpless, I yowed a vpw in tbe forest solitudes that I would confess His aid before men. Silence Its of death was aronnd about me it was midnight I was weakened by ill- ness, prostrated by fatigue, and wan with anxiety for my white ana black companions, whose fate was a mystery. In this physical and mentul distress I besought God to give me back my people. Nine hours later we were exalting with a rapturous joy. In full view was the crimson flag with the crescent, aud beneath its waving folds was the long lost rear column." Upon another occasion, when threat- ened by a great number of natives, after he had been reading the exhort- ation of Moses to Joshua, it appeared to bim as though he had heard :â€" "Be strong and of good courage fear not, nor be afraid of them, for tbe Lord thy God, He it is that doth go with thee, He will not fail thee nor forsake thee." And he says â€" "When on the next day Mazamboui commanded his people to attack and extermiiiate us, there was not a coward in our ca.mp where* as, the evening before, we exclaimed in bitterneelSon seeing four of our men fly before one native, 'And these are the. wretches with whom we must reach the Pasha.' " And yet again, when a foraging party had long been missing, and when the people of his own division were, in consequence, at the point of death by starvation, "The natural hardness of the heart was softened and I again consigned my case to Him who could alone assirt us," Next morning, with- in half an hour of the start he found his foragers "safe, sound, robust, load- ed, hearing four tons of plantains." And he sums up â€" "As I mentally review the many grim episdoes, and reflect on the mar- vellously narrow escapes from utter destruction to wnich we had been sub- jected during our various journeys to and fro through that immbnse aiid gloomy extent of primeval woods, I feel utterly unable to attribute our sal- vation to any other cause than to a gracious Providence, who, for some purpose of His own, preserved us. All the armies and armaments of Europe could not have lent us any aid in the dire extremity in which we found our- selves ii# that camp between the Dui and Ihuru an army of explorers could not have traced our course to the scene of the last struggle had we fallen for deep, deep as utter oblivion had we been surely buried under the humus of the trackless wilds.. "It 18 in this humble and grateful spirit that I commence this record o| the progress of the expedition from its inception by you to tbe date when at our feet the Indian Ocean burst into view, pure and blue as heaven, when we might justly exclaim.

The crop prospects in every part of the provmce arid territories are report- ed by loan companies and others, who are in the best possible positiou to know, as better than they ever were before at this season of the year in t8 history of the country. The aren' under cultivation is alone mxs^ jn excess of any previous year. It ig estimated that within the prwioce Itself there are not much les lHjan 1,000.000 acres under cultivation, it least 800,000 of which are in whert. In 1887 the average jield of wheat per acre was over thirty-two bnshelB. Let tbe season but continue as it kas begun and assuredly a great crop i» ahead of us.^ Winnipeg Free Presa. VvtsXatet AdverUHar. The persistent advertiser always succeeds. His efforts may sometimes be misdirected, but his persistency will eventually lead him into right chan- nels and help him overcome all ob- stacles. There is no day m tbe year when advertising may not be profitably done. It is not hke any other sowiog. The more out of season an adyertise* ment is, the more noticeable it is and the deeper it burns itself into oDe'6 memory. An advertisement to selS heavy overcoats and woollen blankets m July might be quite unseasonable, but you would never forget the fellow who did it. No more would you the' man who would candidly advertise ice when the thermometerwas 20 degrees below zero, When business is quiet and people have much leasare, they scan advertisements much more close- ly than when tnings are rushing At such timRS mediums are not crowded. with advertisements, aud the persistant man has the double advantage of hav- ing his advertisement tnore prominent and more closely studied. For those who overrule these arguments I will quote that of t- recited verse from Pop» as a truishn for the persistant advertiser "Woe is a mwister of sueh horrid mien That to be b«ted needs but to be seen Yet seen io oft, familiar with ite feoe.
