These results are best effected by the use of that well known standard blood purifier, Ayer’s sarsaprilla. I The St. Joseph Evening Press says t , the total loss to the Graham & Morton [Co. by the foundering of the Chicora ' will be $175,000, but a greater loss than this is the precious lives on board. I While Stines is not especially blamed, I many of the sailor men think that the captain should have studied his ba- ! rometer more closely. 1 he Walkerton Independent informs its renders that John Baugher is contemplating moving his saw mill to that place, and that he is figuring on the advisability of purchasing a large tract of timber near there. Os course we do not know whether this will prove true, but if it does, Walkerton will get, for a citizen, a wide awake, hustling, progressive business man.— Plymouth Independent. Dancing is now an unsettled question among the clergyman of Mil wan kee,-says an exchange. 'The poor dancing parties were catching it right and left, when the Rev. Judson Titsworth said it was a most moral pastime compared to the sleigh ride parties gotten up by Sunday schools. It is surmised that, when brother Titsworth was young some other chap took his girl on a Sunday school sleigh ride. Judson speaks as a man of experience. lb'V. J. H. Wilson, I). 1)., presiding elder of the Val[ araiso District, Northwest. Indiana Conference, says: “The Valparaiso District, leads all others in the United States of America. List year she paid all of her preachers in full, and all benevolent collections were in advance of preceding years. She will pay her preachers $2,000 more this ye ir than last year. Can you point to a district in the union of Methodism that has done as well?” How to Run a Newspaper. There uro several wa vs to run a newspaper, but I must say the best way is t<>ld in the following: A western editor once invited correspondence as to the best way to conduct his paper, and the man who hit the nail squarely on the head replied anonyniously, on a postal card: “Run it, as yon d d please.” —Pease’s Anoka Union.
