He bad not been well for a long time, and a few years ago he was so reduced by ill-health tbat his intimate friends feared that his end was nigh. But he rallied, and his remarkable coustitu- tion carried him through a severe, long and almost fatal illne-s. When his friends saw him three or four days ago they little dreamed that death was +o near. He was aman of genial nature, kincly-l ear'ed to a degree, und he was always extending a helping hand to those who needed acd. He was a member of the Methodist Chu-ch, where he oceupiid a foremost po. ition. He loved the society of his friends and he was a generous host. Lis home life, in which he was always the central figure, was one of the sweetest that may be con- ceived. A kind father, a devoted hus- band, and a sympathetic fmend, he was never tired trying to make those arouod him happy. The loved ones near to him will long feel the grievous loss which they have sustained. The general public, w0 knew him as an honorable business. man, will regret the absence of one with whom it was always a pleasure to have dealings. His integrity was never doult d. and in his death Quebec and Lower Town par ticularly; loses a citizen whom it ¢ould il! atford to lose.” The late Mr. Dawson, who died on the 14th inst., aged 67 years, was a brother of Dr. Samuel E. Dawson, Queen’s Printer of Ottawa, and son of the late Benjamin Dawson, Erq., of Montreal, a native of P. K. I-lacd. He was also a cousin of Dr. Dawson, and of Messrs. Richard Heartz and Thomas Alley, of this city. M-. Dawson was the last publisher of the Quebec Gazette, the first newspaper pub- lished in old Canada, and which was es- tablished in the year 1764. It continued its journalistic career for 100 years and in 1864, under Mr. Dawson’s management, its centennial wes celebrated, when he pub- lished a centennial issue reproducing the first number. e+ ere LOVE LAUGHS AT COLD, Whatever May Be the Weather Couples Speon in the Park. It may be all very true that “love laughs at locksmiths,” but it appears love laughs at to be equally true that cold weather. For three months on more I have been watching the per- formances of several pairs of lovers in Johnson Park. It is a beautiful place in summery—I know of no more dainty spot in all the earth, yet itis not quite an ideal place for love-making if one desires any particular degree of isola- tion. But all through the summer evenings these lovers have told each other the “old, old story” night after night in the little park. Itis always light there. The gleam of the electric lights andthe windows of many resi- dences make any part of the park al- most as light as day, but these lovers seem to have become accustomed to all that, and have even become so tame that they have grown to disregard even the children who play ig the park during the early evening. This season of love-w.aking has served as amuse- ment for many residents living in that neighborhood, and everyone supposed that when the cold weather came on the voung people would disappear and continue their billing and cooing in somebody’s parlor; but not so, During all the coid evenings of th past week, at least two couples have never missed anight. As soon as it is fairly dark they appear on the benches just as affectionate as ever, if not a little more so, because as the nights grow colder they sit a little together, and there are not so many windows open from which they are watched, and not so many mischievous children to throw sticks at them. I believe that must be what is known as true love, for it cer- tainly cannot be a false love that in- duces two human beings to sit out of doors such nights as we have had dur- ing the past week.—Buffalo News, closer What a Britegroom Should Do. Thexe is a modern Gefinition of a bridegroom which is a little cruel cer- tainly, but which pretty the position of that personage. <A bridegroom is said to be athingina black coat who attends weddings. And it is quite true that in point of import- ance he ranks very low down indeed in the eyes of the spectator. Yet there is not the slightest reason really why he should appear in such a very poor light as he too often does. He need not, for instance, come into ehurch or the room as if he were being led to execntion, He need not hang his head as if caught in the commission of a crime, or blunder about with an awkwardness which makes every gir’ present feel thankful she is not in the bride’s shoes.

He feels that he is the target for al} eyes, when, in f he is Ww ell describes FACE, thine of the kind, Let him start bv con- vincing himself that no one is likely to waste a chance on him when there are the bride and the bridesmaids to be looked at, and he will find it easier to preserve his sel f-poss¢ ssion. He must try to look happy, no matter how he feels. Can a worse compliment be paid to the girl he has induced to marry him than locking as if he regretted his folly? He must try to look manly, not only for her sake, but his own, for she is very likely to yegret her decision at the last moment when sl how it seems to affect him. He should look proud. Surely it ought to be the proudest moment of his life; he should be elated, and not ashamed.

Some of the methods adopted by imitat- ors are as follows: First —To imitate the size, color and shape of Dodd’s Kidney Pilis and sel] them by count. ‘ Second—To put them up to appear very nearly the same and to be offered at the same price, Thir !—To hook on the word “kidney” in naming cathortic pills so as to increase sales of mere physic. Fourth—To givea name so near to Dodd's that unwary people may bedeceiy- ed and think they are getting Dodd’s. Look out for such dodges. When you want kidvey medicine you want the be-t.

Some “Don'ts” Which May be Safely Followed. Here is one that sounds very much like Robert J. Burdette, although that is onlv a guess : *‘Remember, son, that the world is olderthan you are by several years; that for thousands of years it has been so full of smarter and younger men than yourself, that their feet stuck out of the dormer windows, but when they died. the old globe went jogging along, and not one person in ten millions went to the funeral, or even heard of their death. Beas smart as you course. Know as much as without blowing the packing out of your cylinder heads. Shed the light of your wisdom abroad, but don’t dazzle people with it. And don’t imagine a thing is so, simply because you say it is so. Don’t be sorry for your father, because he knows so mach less than you do. The world has great need of young men, but no greater need than the young men have of it. Your clothes fit you better than your father’s fit him—they cost more money, they are more sylist ; your mustache is neater, the cut of your hair is better and you are prettier, oh, far prettier than ‘pa.’ But, stop a moment. voung man, and reflect. The old gentleman gets the biggest salary, and his homely, scrambling signature on the business end of a check will drain more money out of the bank in five minutes than perhaps your handsome autograph can do during the balance of your mortal life. Young men are useful and they are also ornamental, and we all like them—but they are no novelties, son, oh, no, nothing of the kind, they have been here before. Don’ be so modest as to shut yourself clear out, but don’t be so fresh that you will have to be put away in a cooler to keep from spoiling. Don’t be afraid that your merit will not be discovered.

The manager of a St. Louis coffee company is the proud possessor of this unique walk. It is composed of several tons of Brazilian pebbles, that came to him in an ordinary business way dur- ing the last few years. This firm are heavy importers of Brazilian coffee. Before the berries are ready to be ruasted for the market the sacks are opened and the contents carefully examined for twigs, leaves and other impurities, the latter gener- ally taking the shape of small pebbles about the size of a coffee berry. These came with such regularity and in such quantities that long ago the idea that they were accidentally in the sacks was abandoned and the con- clusion reluctantly reached that they were purposely placed in the bags to make weight. The daily discoveries of these Brazilian pebbles, which are paid for as coffee, will fill an ordinary basket. They are still added to the gravel path as they come in. Lutherans in Amertea.
