A building lot was recently sold for $650,
one hundred feet square. Thetown has at-
tempted to phrchase another Of one-fourth
acre for $600, but has not beenable to do so.
Kent real estate is looking up. ‘
Jas. Taylor &. Sons have done, a pretty
good business the presentseason. They are
accommodating, energetic ‘ men, and their
long standing in business place them among
the first men in the county in their line.

Prayer meeting «at :Wm. Betts’. . every
Thursday evening. ‘ Norwalk’p'eople inter-
ested will find a pleasant gathering there.
Rev. Mr. Belmont, ot Bald Hill, exchang-
ed with Rev. M. N'. Olmstead, at the M. E.
church Sunday Week. :Rev. Mr; B. makes a
fine appearance in the pulpit. The picture
of health—with energy Of mind and body
few possess—he stands, up nobly for the
cause he represents. 'The main body of his
dicourse related to the divinity fof our Save
iour. He showed how the Son of Almighty
God came to a world of suffering and sin un-
der such discouraging circumstances as our
most noted martyrs and reformers were not
called to. Commencing life under the pecu-
liar auspicies of those of humble origin are “
subject to, he raised himself‘to the head of ’
a religion that now rules the maj )r portion.
‘ of men’s minds. Uneducated, at twelve
years of age he taught the most learned
men of the Jewish nation. The words Of
wisdom that fell from his lips were such as
men before or since have never uttered.
What such men as Martin Luther would re-
quire volums to demonstrate, he condens-
ed in a srngle sentence. WVitIiOIttlhe'elo-
qncnee of Haulenbeck‘, whose r0und periods
are beautiful to listen _to, or the practical
views of Olmstoad, who always has a point
to accomplishiaud accomplishes it, Belmont’s
descriptive p‘owe‘rs- reasoning are fine, and
if his half~hottr sermons were extended it
would meet with no objection ,from his
hearers. . . Q . . * i

We think .8 good deal of our church.
Twenty~five years ’has‘it stood where it I is
through sunshine and rain, through sorrow
and joy. Pastors have spent some _of the
pleasantest days of their lives there, and old
members lov‘e"toont:e again see its seats
filled and delight in its worship. Old
remembrances will spring up as the good
old Methodist hymns once more resound
through IPQLNI‘QNIPSLS‘ENE by. many who
twenty-five years ago lifted their voices in
prayer and praise to Almighty God who has
carried themggtiough‘so many years, while
others, friends nd neighbors, have fallen one
by one into the silent tomb they know they
are nearing. And as the notices of weekly.
