Old men say thai this is the stormiest winter known for years. DEDICATION.— The dedication or St. Luke's Evangelical chutch of Nliliheim, which took place last Sunday was fa vored by a beautiful, sunny sky. On Saturday evening Hie first sermon in the new church was preached by Kev. J. M. Ettinger, 1\ K., preparatory to the dedicatory services of Ihe next uay. On Sunday morning long before the time for opening had arrived many ot the people who were anxious to witness the dedication and wished to secure good seats were on their way tochurch. Hy ten o'clock the auditorium, the Sunday School rooms and the gallery were filled to their utmost capacity and the services were opened with an ap propriate anthem by the clioir.This wis followed by the reading >f a scripture passage and prayer by Bishop Dubbs. After another hymn the Bishop preached the dedicatory sermon to an attentive and intelligent audience. His text was taken from Exoius, WW : !.'(. Byway ot introduction he pointed out the simulanty between the occasion spoken of in the text ami the present occasion. Foil her on ho otu- that mi nisi er s should thorougly understand their subjects upon which they preach and the gospel truths which they intend to teach. He strongly asserted that prayer and giv ing are twin-factors—the one being the breath of the soul, while the other is a religiousduty,and that they must g> to gether. He pointed out God's demand of gold from those who are in poscssion of it, for the erection of Houses of Wotship and reterrcd to Christ's coo damnation of the miser. He also show ed that noKtdy is excused from this duty of giving -that all have an oppor tunity and invitation to giye according to their means. He dwelt on the ne cessity of building churches as a means of civilization and as places where the evils of the human heart may be root ed up. He stated that there is nothing moie edifying and soul-inspiring than the united song and prayer of a worshiping pe >plo —in fact that every churclf is a fortress for Emanuel. By several touching illustrations he show ed how much G >d has done for us ami retnir tied his hearers that we should exhibit our gratefulness by giving willingly and cheerfully. All we are and all we have we owe to God. He closed his address by the remark th t if his congregation believed wl.at he had preached—which they knew to he true —their time to prove it had arrived. He then disclosed the fact that a debt of 32000 lefted on the church which it | was his purpose and task t liquidate. In less than an hour üb>utsl7iX) were raised after which all present joined in singing the doxology and were dismiss ed. In the afternoon Bishop Dubts preached an excellent German sennon from Marki I : 3">-3-\ but as wo were prevented to attend in person we are unable to comment upon his remarks at that time. The work of soliciting funds was continued and resulted in the collection of about SIOO. The evening session was again at tended by a crowded house and was M| en: dly an anthem Itsv.S.Smith of fered np an earnest prayer, after which Bishop Dnhbs agaiu preached from Mark XV: 21. He treated the history of Simon, the Cyrenian, and laid sufli cient s'ress on the fact that Simon's assistance to our Saviour in bearing the cross upon calvary was compulsory,but intimated that this c impulsion was likely brought about by Simon himself. He viyidly described the crucifiction scene and called attention to the glori ous privilege of this Simon to be so neai Christ and render active service to the Master. lie declared that through the cross of Christ the world gains better men and women daily. He admonished his hearers to he ready and willing to help to bear each others crosses and illustiated the beauty of such a spirit by several well applied and interesting anecdotes. In all his sermons the Bishop gave no uncertain sound but revealed the truths contained in the B ble feirlessly and effectively. He had his audience touched to tears in many instancs and the contributions throughout the day proved that he had fully succeeded to get the people in a humor to give. Af tir the evening service the lacking S2OO were raised in a very short time and the impressive and solemn dedication ceremonies were gone through with. At the close of a few parting remarks in German by Bishop Dubbs the con gregation rose and sang the doxology, and the members of the church went home rrjoicing that their house of Worship was now complete, consecrat ed and paid for while the community feels proud of another floe church structure. —That old established cough remedy Downs' Elixir, still more than holds its own in the public estimation,despite sharp and active competition. It is a "home remedy," ana in this locality needs no words of praise from us, so weli and favorably known is it. It is the standard lemedy for coughs, colds and all throat troubles, with great numbers of our people, and their con tinued use and unsolicited recommen dation of it speaks in its favor.—Burl ington, Vt., Free Press, Jan. 20, 1882 For sale by J.

LARGE DELIVERY of CHAM PION BINDERS, REAPERS and MOWERS. A carload of these renowned ma chines was due at Coburn last Friday morning, but having been delayed a long the road, did not arrive at the station until in the afternoon. The day was one of the coldest and stormi est we had this winter, but in spite of the raw and unpleasant weather the farmers turned out with their teams bright am!early,anxiously awaiting the arrival of their machines. When they finally nached Coburn at about J o'- clock, the woik of unloading and re loading was at once commenced and it was nearly dark before the men were ready to start for home Many of them had come quite a distance and had to drive most cf that night. The Champion Hinders, Reapers and Mowers are manufactured by Wliitely, Fassler & Keller, at Springfield, Ohio, propi ietois of one of the largest estab lishments of the kind in the wo; Id. Every part of these machines, down to a burr, is made right at their factories, none but the best and strongest in itei ial is being used and their capacity for turning oat complete machines is one every two minutes. Toe frame of their new mowers, even to the bolts and riv ets, is manufactured of pure steel. In fact their harvesting maihines, after a fair test are pronounced the most dura ble and serviceable in the country. It may strike our readers as extraor dinary that twenty-four of these liar vesting machines are being delivered at this early day and so far in advance of harvest. It certainly shows that the manufacturers and their general agents, Messrs. L. 11. Lee use.
