Rev Mr Bruer of London gave an interesting lecture on the subâ€" ject: Love, jealousy and zeal. Love is an elemental passion, so are jealâ€" ousy and zealâ€"the big three of our lives. Not every love is good. The love of the world, of money is bad. Any love that does not elevate a perâ€" son is not to be recommended, The greatest love is the love of God. It should prompt us to love Him in reâ€" turn. If you do not love your fellowâ€" members of your society, hide their faults, Love to persons of opposite sex should be held sacred for him or her with whom a person intends to go through life. You should love the truth, and love yOur country. Patriotism is not a mere waving of flags, but doing all you can for the good of your country. Jealousy cavusâ€" es more unhappiness in the world than anything else. Remember the *great war. On the other hand jealâ€" ousy for the good name of your soâ€" | clety, your church, your friend is a good thing. Zeal in the work of your society and your cbhurch is absoluteâ€" ly necessary. Zeal in overcoming ob stacles is the makjng of a man. Mrs. Cole, of Kitchener visited \her uncle, Mr. John Schedewitz, durâ€" ing the latter part of last week, wh» is still seriously ill.
