Who advised her pupils to strengthen their minds by the use of Ayer’s Sar- saparillay appreciated the truth that bodily health is essential to mental vigor. For persons of delicate and feeble ccnstitution, whether young or old, this medicine is remarkably beneficial. Be sure you get Ayer’s Sarsaparilla,

A Sacred Concert in connection with the Week of Prayer was held on Wednesday evening, 9th inst., under the efficient man- agement of Miss B. Hyde. The pro- gramme consisted of sacred music and recitations, and seldom has Cornwall Church held a more pleased audience. The duet, ‘‘The Pleading Voice,” by Mrs. Moore and Miss Hyde, and Mr. Howard’s solo, ‘* The Model Church,” were specially well rendered and well received. The Church rallying song was sung by the choir with a spirit that made the old chapel! ring. Towards the close the entertainment was interrupted by the appearance of Santa Claus, who carried a basket of confection- ery for the children and wore a fur coat, which he presented to Rev. Mr. Moore on behalf of the circuit, as a token of the esteem in which the rev. gentleman is held by his people. After Mr. Moore’s reply the doxvlogy was sung, and the audience dispersed.

Land Sales in Manitoba. The quantity of land taken up for actual settlement in Manitoba during the year was very considerable and largely in excess of any year since 1882. The Government have had taken up for homesteads at pre- emptions and sales about 330,000 acres, almost the whole of which has gone intu actual settlement. The different land com- panies have sold about 180,000 acres, almost the whole of which has been taken up by actual settlers. That makes a total of 510,000. In addition to this, loan com- panies, who have become possessed of con- siderable quantities of land through fore- closures of mortgages, have disposed of a considerable quantity they had acquired. Between loan companies and private indi- viduals, who have been selling land, not far short of 100,000 acres have been disposed of. This makes a total acreage actually settled upon in Manitoba during the year fully 600,000 acres.

STILL Torey Come.—An exchange says that another Australian pugilist is after American blood. It is said that Slavin, the famous Australian pugilist who is matched to fight Jack Burk, the Irish lad, on the 24th Janu- ary, stimulated by the news of the success of Peter Jackson and the great amount of money

he made by defeating Joe McAuliffe, will cancel his match with Burke and sail im. mediately for America, where, upon his

arrival, he will challenge any man in the

Brack Fox Carruren.—An Indian secured a valuable black fox skin on the 4th inst., near Cardigan Bridge. It seems that the Mic- mac was fishing at Crawford’s Creek, and saw the fox crossing the river on a thin skim of ice that was on it that day. Joe started for his gun, got a brother Indian to help him, and- going round by the bridge, caught sight of Master Reynard at the ‘*Old Farm.” The fox started to run, but the Indian was too quick with his gun, and laid the animal down, thereby making a good day’s work, the skin being a valuable one.

PRAISEWORTHY.—Some time ago, says the Guardian, Mr. VD. Ross of Valleytield, lost his barn and crop by fire. In three weeks the friends of Valleytield had a fine new one built for him;—they providing all the material. The people, together with others outside the settlement, fully supplied him with sufficient straw and considerable hay for his stock.— About a month ago, at Brown's Creek, Mr. Murdock MecKinnon’s barn, stock and crop were consumed by fire. The people of Brown’s Creek, with some assistanee from Valleyfield, have already erected a large new barn to replace their neighbor’s loss. This is commendable ,‘‘ bearing one another's bur. dens and so fulfilling the law of Christ. ”
