Sinnerand Christian are deeply interest in their soul’s sal vation. A number have been en rolled to membership/ others are seeking repentance. Every body should come out to die meet ings, and work in the vineyard of the Lord; no matter what church you belong; they all constitute the great Temple, Three funerals were the subject of divine services at Kails Creek last Sunday.

The panto’, in alluding to the whiske y traffic, said. “If one is to be licenstd. vvhv not this —why not license a mad ilog and tern him loose in tbo coiotnnnit) just put a U.

The old Dodd house I hat stood on the iiill has been torn away; this old building is among (he first eree ed in 1 Lnner, and has a history—a pliiu, simple history like most old houses. At firM it stood out in bold relief and attracted the atten tion of people and commanded the admiration of all like a r >sy cheek ed maiden on a May morning; and iii poii.t of fact it is said many a youthful swain has piid court to hvo lovely maidens who dwelt in this ancient in the days of “auld Lang Syne!’’ They lived liiere with their widowed mother, and cheered her iu her lonely strug gles with the world, and as they grew up Jo maidenhood they were exceedingly fair and became reigning belies, and were wood by tlie young men of the neighbor hood. But they changed as all tilings change here. Old age mark ed alike the poor widowed mother andthe neglected and weather beat en walls of her dwelling She is dead, and tho girls are gone and almost forgotten. The bulling, it self, no longer stands to mark the spot, and in a i;w years people will no longer remember the Dodd house or the humble dwellers who lived there.
