Tabernacle Letter. I-'or tlio Kntorpriao. Mr. Ed itor :?Having seen notti iii^ in your valuable paper froti this section in some time the wri ter will offer a few (lots of a loca nature, and if deemed worthy o publication may be inserted ii your next issue. The Bethel school house, a nea building recently built was d? stroyed by lire on the 13th inst It is thought to have been of ai incindiary origin. The citizen of the community held an indig nation meeting on the day afte the fire, and made every effort t< ascertain the guilty party requir ing many present to state when they were at the time of the fire 8 o'clock p. m. One arrest wa made, but failing to secure satis factory evidence the snspectei man was released. It is hoped tin guilty party may yet be fount aud punished to the full exten of the law. Th * patrons, we un derstand, will rebuild at once. We are glad to report the Tab ernacle Academy in a health; condition with encouraging pros pects for a successful session. Thi is the third year the writer ha hud his life-bout anchored withii Tabernacle's harbor, as principa of her school, and it is pleasant t be located in a community wher energy, enterprise, kindness am hospitality predominate l'ossibl; there is no life-work in whirl greater perplexities, diilicultie and oftentimes unpleasantness are to l>?* met with than in tti life-work of a <-<>t scientioiis teach er. Such is the ease for the re is son that those who constitute hi patronage imagine his labors ar ligiit; that he is a being wh needs no sympathy or encourag ment in his elForts to train th minds of the young who may hap pen to ho placed under his tutil age. When therefore it happen that his lot is cast among a pec pie who recognize the fact tha his lot is not without its dilficul ties and perplexities then it is th teacher feels that his labors ar appreciated and is impelled t tit himse f more thoroughly fo bis noble life-work. Mr. J. I'. Car lies, one of 'la her nacle's most successful farmer* (and by the way a man who live at homo,) celebrated bis lf?ri birthday by giving a royal dinne recently. Indeed a most bounti fill and delightful dinner it wa> Sixty present. We wish him man; ret urns. It was the pleasure of your cor respondt nt to witness a very pret ty and interesring double mar riage at the Methodist parsonage on Wednesday, 1 Tth inst. The con trading parties were Mr. .1.

Marly in the evening about > o'clock, the bridal part; arrived, and very soon there-afte the happy young couples ncr united in the holy bonds of wed lock by their popular pastor, th l ie v. L. M.

Let i the children of our laud, and all other lands be carefully instructt ed in that "Book of God's glorious . Truth" over the realms of which (as a distinguished one has so a beautifully said) "Au Arch-angel H might lly from eteruity to eternity . and yet never reach the limits." r Let the groat chain of Sabbath 0 school work?the first link of . which was forged on Euglish 6oil, _ fnntirnia In ha innruaiiiiil ii >, f i 1 if , shall encircle the whole world in i p its injetic tie. Then as a grand . result the Bible will be acknowlj edged as the true Word of God by 0 millions now in utter ignorance ] of its existence. G. ONE OF TWO WAYS. The bladder was created for !>* one purpose, namely, a receptacle . for the urine, and as such it is s: not liable to any form of disease 1 except by one of two ways. The s first way is from imperfect action II of the kidneys. The second way 1 is from careless local treatment o of other diseases. < ini:r cai nf. I nhealthy urine from tin I healthy kidneys isthechiet cause v of bladder troubles. So the ! h womb, like the bladder, was ere- j s atod for one purpose, and if not . doctored too much is not liable) to weakness or disease, except itt j rare cases. It is situated back of and very close to the bladder, therefore any pain or ineonven- I ^ ience manifested in the kidneys,! e back, bladder or urinary passage! is often, by mistake, attributed to ; female weakness or womb trou' ble of some sort. The error is e easily made and may be as easily ! ! avoided. To find out correctly.' . set your urine aside for twenty 1 j. | four hours ; a sediment or settling 1 indicates kidney or bladder troui ble.

Sulkily, he laid down his book I. and walked through the kitchen,; y I where his mother and sister were cooking the supper and his father whs piling up tho kindling-wood 11 for the morning's fire.

A line round of meat was smc ing on the table but there w none on Teddey's plate. "This is beef," said Mr. We "I did not give you any bucat you hate cows, Teddy." Ted opened his mouth, and then clos it again without a word. "1 won't give you any butt Teddy," said Mrs. West, "becai we get our butter from the co* and you hate them so." Hester poured out the milk I the other children, but to Ted she gave a glass of water. "Cows are such a bother," s said soberly. "I know you do want any milk." Teddy looked wistfully at t plate of creamy cheese, but was passed to every one but hi But, worst of all, when the ci tards were brought in, sweet a brown, in their little white cui Teddy was passed by. 'Of course you wouldn't < custards, for they are made mo ly of milk ; and cows are no got said Aunt iletty. Teddy looked as if ho would ci ilI?I haven't had anything eat," ho blurted.
