Owing to a laie ruling by the U.
S. Postal Department which goes
into effect the first of next month,
it .will be necessary for us to drop
from our subscription books the
names of all subscribers whi are
more than one year in arrears for

It seems at first a little strange
for the government to take this
position, as it would appear that it
is a simple case of interfearing with
our private bueiness, but when we
study into the matter, the object is
plainly to be understood. The in
tention of the government is to give
the publisher of every bony fide
newspaper every
advantage of
cheap rates possible, and in doing
so the publishers of advertising
schemes have learned to take ad.
vantage of these rates, and the idea
of the department is to cut them
out, and only allow genuine news
papers with paid-up subscription
lists to have access to what is known
as the second-class mailing rate.
Therefore, under the circumstan
ces, we are sending out statements to
all who are more than a year in ar
rears, and in case we receive no re-
mitance by April 1st, we will be ob

d Wednesday of last week while
assisting in ceiliog the lower story
of Nosler's building in changing it
from a skating riok to a store room
to receive W. C. Laird’s new stock,
a portion of the staging fell upon
which Paul Skaels was working it
the time, throwing the young man
violently to the floor, fracturing
two ribs and otherwise bruising him
up. He struck on his head and
shoulders and it was at first thought
by bis companions that bis neck was
broken, but this proved not the
case, and he is now getting along
very well, but baa been snffering
intensely. We hope he may soon
be entirly recovered.

of Christian ancestors:
O children of the saints, arise
And gird your armor o n !
A ‘ ‘ Promised Land” is still at stake,
The day will soon be gone.
The royal blood is in your veins,
And duty will not down;
Your hand was made to wield the sword,
Your brow to wear s crown 1
Perchance you bear the name of one
W ho died for concience sake—
Some Puritan or Hugenot
W ho shrank not from the »take.
But what avails it all to thee—
The martyrs fire and sword—
If raithless to the sacred trust
You fight not for the Lord?
As brave a battle wages now
As waged in days gone by—
You're matching pennies in your tents
While others fight and die!
How dare you talk of “ father's faith,”
And “ mother’s prayers” for you,
While trampling underneath your feet.
The book that made them true!
