preserved?Ans.\u2014 The ancient Egyptians understood very thoroughly the art of embalming,and their rméthod has been quite fully deciphered by Rgyptologists.\u2018The process varied with the wealth and rank of the persov deceased: The most expensive method cost a sum equivalent to more than a thousand dollars of our money.There were special Tituäls for the guidance of priestly operators and assistants at the successive stages of the process.The first was the evisceration, cleansing, etc., the brains and intestines being removed, the abdomen cleaned apd filled with myrrh, cassia, and other materials.Then the body was steeped in natren, or neutrad carbonate of sodium, found at the natron lakes in Upper Egypt.After the steeping, tbe body was washed, thes swathed in gummed linon, of which an enormous quantity was used.The under bandages were laid on wet, and hanl- ened to a mask.From 700 to 1250 yards of bandages in strips à few inches wide have been found on mummies.About seventy- two days were occupied from the death of the person until the body was put in the mummy case and cofined.The preparation of the bodies of the poorest donsisted chiefly in the seventy days\u2019 steeping in uatron, after a previous rinsing of the abdomen.The proceeses of mummification varied in different parts of Egypt, and at different times.In modern times, numerous methods of

CAMP.The following poem, by Bayard Taylor, is given in response to the request of a Woodstock, Ont., reader: \u2018Give us a song,\u2019 the soldiers cried, The outer trenches guarding, When the heated guns of the camps allied, Grew weary of bombarding; The dark Redan, in silent scoff, » Lay osrim and threatening under, And the tawny mound of the Malakoff, No longer belched its thunder.There was a pause! A guardsmen said: \u2018We storm the forts to-morrow; Sing while you may, ancther day Will bring enough of sorrow.\u2019 They lay along the batt\u2019ry's side, Below the smoking cannon, Brave hearts frem Severn and from Clyde, And from the banks of Shannon.They sang of love, and not of fame, Forgot was Britain's glory, Each heart recalled a different name, But all sang \u2018Annie Laurie.\u2019 Voice after volce took up the song, Until its tender passion Rang like an anthem, rich and strong, Their battle eve\u2019's confession.Dear girl, her name he dared not speak, But as the song grew louder, Something upon the soldier's cheek, Washed out the stain of powder.Beyond the dark\u2019ning ocean burned The bloody sunset\u2019's embers; While the Crimean valleys learned, How English love remembers.And once again a fire of bell Rained on the Russian quarters; And scream of shot, and burst of shdl, And bellowing of mortars; And Irish Norah's eyes are dim, For a strapger, dumb and gory; And English Mary weeps for him; Who sang of \u2018Annie Laurie.\u2019 Sleep, soldiers, still in honored rest, Your truth and valor bearing, The bravest are the tenderest, The loving are the daring.QUOTATION.K.F.\u2014Kindly tell me iu which of Tennyson's poems are to be found the lines: \u2018A daughter of the gods, divinely tall, And most divinely fair.\u2019 Ans.\u2014These are the last two lines of the twenty-second stanza of Tennyson's \u2018A Dream of Fair Women.\u2019 NUMBERS OF ADHERENTS.A.B., Michigan.\u2014What is the numerical strength of the Methodist, Presbyterian, Epivcopal and Roman Catholic Churches in Canada?Ans.\u2014 According to the last cepsus (141): \u2014Methodists, 916,872; Presbyterians, §$42,3(1; Church of England.680,346; Roman Catholics, 2,228,997.THE SCOTCH THISTLE.An Ontario Reader.\u2014In the language of flowers, what is the \u2018language\u2019 of the Scotch Thistle?Ans.\u2014We do not remember to have seen the Scotch thistle in any list of flowers having an accepted meaning.The thistle, as the emblem of Scotland, gave rise to the motto: \u2018No one attacks me with impunity,\u201d (Nemo me im- pune lacessit).COMPULSORY NON-ATTENDAXCE.A Michigan Subscriber.\u2014Has any municipality in Oriario the power to compel a child, whose parents cannot provide shoes and stockings for it, to abrent itsclf from the public schools, because it bas neither shoes nor stockirgs?We believe not.A matter of that kind would come within the care of the school board of that particular school, and school trustees in Ontario are much more corcerved in seeing that the pupils attend thar in finding reasons for their rom-attendance.There are rares where pupils may be sent home from school, as, if they have any disease which may prove ocntagious, or if their condition is in some way detrimental to the other pupils, but po teacher or schoo!

army because he has not been offered any werk to do since he fell out with the Ca- madfan Government over certain appointments; or, as he puts it, since he pro tested against corruption in the appoipt- meat of officers.It would perhaps be mofe correct to say: since be:was not allowed to make a certain \u2018territorial regiment a nest of Tories.No one can deprecate political appointments to the militia more than we have always done, The political colonel with a pull has been @ great drawback to our service, We have stood by every G.O.C.from the beginning in his disputes with political interference, and we #poke strongly in this particular case.But political ap- poibtments are equally an evil on which.4 \\, ever side they are made, and when a G.O.C.puts himself in the bands of a local group, opposed to the government, nothing is more natural than that- the government should insist on having in the regiment a sprinkling of officers of its own complexion.But to speak of this dment of hie nominations as corrup- tiga is to put himself entirely out of court, and suggests a reason for not fijding work for him in service: where good temper and a balanced judginent are cajled for.The same \u2018corruption\u2019 seems to: prevail in Great Britain, if it ve corruption not to entrust with appoint- ménts requiring some political sagacity a man who is noisily opposed to the ap- pomnting government\u2019s policy.We have corruption enough in Canada of the genuine kind without making wild chatges of this sort.The Chicago \u2018Tribune\u2019 has been doing good service by keeping records of rail way casualties in the United States, and foaving them upon the attention of the country.It now publishes the appalling fast that although the first half of the present year is not passed, ite record of sagualties already exceeds the total of Woo.There have been thirty-eight rail- 3.8.101 = way mts ot more than ordinary magnitude, resulting \u2018 in thé killing of two hundred and seventy-three persons and the injuring of nine hundred and twenty-five.Besides this railway record of death and injury, which is largely du to the too hurried production of un\u2019 tempered rails, twenty-three steamers have been wrecked this year, involv- \u201cling the loss of nine hundred and two lives.and there have been thirteen mine accidents, in whieh three hundred and fifty-five persons have perished.\u201d Ignorance or negligence, or worse, have been responsible for much of this destruction, But nature also, \u2018red,\u2019 a= Tennyson says, \u2018in.tooth and claw,\u201d has also been destructive.Taking the world as a whole, tidal waves in lesa.than six months have swept away twenty-two hundred and forty, earthquakes have {swallowed fifty-one hundred, hurricanes | have killed five hundred and thigty, and it is expected that the cyclone at Kur! rachi, in India, last week, will be found to have added its quota of death and injury.Smaller casualties there have been aplenty, and some that have escaped record, so that altogether 1907 is fast earning for itself the unenviable -reputation of \u2018the year of disaster.\u201d But put all these horrors together and they will not amount to a hundredth part of the scathe \u2018wrought by \u2018alcohol alone, in thepresénce of whose ravages we \u2018are all so inert.On the other hand, as a sort of silver lining to the cloud, the {Tribune calculates, that the total of gifts and bequests in \u2018all forms of \u2018philanthropy in-less than six months has been $108,961,589, compared with $106,281,083 for the twelve months of 1907; while cases of embeaglement and various forms of defaleation for the first five months of this year have been less than in any corresponding period for twenty-five years.-As this has been 4 period of unusual expansion and a get-rich- -quick time, this comparative bonesty is very gratifying.TOO MUCH GOLD.We recently noted the enormoûs increase in the world\u2019s product of and g demand for iron, sixty - million tons last year against apout a million, the annual demard \u2018of a centüry ago.We could wish that there should be some such increase in the consumptive \u2018demand for gold, or at least that uses for it would keep pace with 'the preduction.He woyld at the present moment be a great benefactor of mankind who \u2018should discover or invent some.needful thing that could nok be made\u2019 without gold.\u2018The difficulties of the present day, the uprisings of labor, the distresses .of salaried and business men, the stringency of capital, are all\u2018 results of the gver-supply of gold.The last statement iis paradoxical.Does mot every increase of gold add tothe amount of money.there is in the world?-Not at all.Gold is very\u201d little used for money.In America it is held only by governments and Hanks, -&nd \u2018ever leaves the.vaults except to balance*ac- | counts after all paper methods have been exhausted.More and more, business every year is done on a given substratum, of gold.The gold that is thus held does not wear; it does not rust; it is not lost; there is no consumption of it; very.Jittle is needed for its replenishment.Where people carry gold in \u2018their pockets: it.gets worn and lost to some extent.needs of life are concerned, it is only the standard by which money is valued.If there is less gold produced than the world in various ways uses up, gold increases in value, and the dollar will buy more.of everything, 60 that everything gets cheaper.If there is more gold produced than thé world uses up in various ways, gold decreases in value, and the dollar buys less of everything; everything gets dearer.That is what is going on in the world just now.It is not desirable that either of these processes should go an actively.It would be good, were it possible, to have an unchangeable standard of value as we have vf measurement.A yardstick can be wept from century to century, and every other yardstick tested by it.This is impossible in matters of value.Gold was |chosen as a standard because it was not only very valuable, but less liable to change in value than any other known commodity.In the history of the world it has prohably changed very little in value as compared with almost anything else.But it is not easy to determine this, as all other things vary in nominal value according to their relation to the momentary value of gold.When gold becomes overabundant two things happen.The direct effect is that the dollar buys less, and everything appears to get dear.All the money that people are getting and all\u2019 that they have: already got goes down in value.Everybody with property qf any sort Appears to get richer; everybody with That ia the first and immediate effect / Gold is not money as far as the daily | money in any shape really gets poorer.\u2026 of the overproduction of gold.H may be thought by those who have a quarrel with capital that this is a good thing, as it must diminish fortunes.This is true with regard to those fortunes that are held in.money or bonds, or money.But it is.not true of those which are in property or which are actively invested in business.Everything that money will buy is, under such cmr- cumstances, increasing in value.Everybody is grasping for all the money he can get to invest it in those things which are thus increasing in value.Business everywhere expands at a great rate, and every one is in extremitjes for money of which more and more is needed as it grows less and less valuable.This is the second great effect of the over-supply \u2018of gold.All business is stimulated to the utmost and those who cannot get money to run an increasing business go to the wall?Such a great increase in the world\u2019s activities will also be said to be a good thing.But wa have not yet seen the end.It seems obvious that so long as gold is the standard of valae it is the fairest thing and therefore \u2018better for all concerned that it should continue to buy just the same amount of the ordinary commodities\u2014that it \u201cshould go on representing the same amount of human effort when expended in the same way.Any rapid fluctuation in its value disturbs .every contract and all the relations of life.The worst of the present situation is that no one knows where the \u2018 over-production will end, how.far existing conditions are going to be upset, and whether the result of the present pace will not be a general smash up.It is for those reasons that we have said that'anything that would at the present juncture create < demand for gold proportionate to thc produc tion would do the public great service by bringing things back towards equilibrium.BE a THE WEAKNESS OF THE STRONG.sons taught by this week\u2019s denounement in the history of the Sovereign Bank, there would soon be a banking system in this country as nearly perfect as human frailies would permit.We are inclined to be a self-satisfied people, buoyed up with the exuberance of our growing importance.We are going to show Jobn Bufi how to \u2018run the old farm,\u2019 and, > ge, there is nothing we cannot do excep sometimes to note oir ewn ghortcomings.It is thus that we in- our self-satisfaction make emall profit by\" the errors of the past.In the all-im- perative banking questions that arise at frequent, almost regular, intervals thé country has been very slow to move towards protective and preventive \u2018mea- aires, and notwithstanding the -serious- mess of the Ontario Bank failure, less than eight months ago, little or nothing has been done to make a repetition practically impossible in the future.Even admit that without the aid of the foreign capitalists who were interested to a large extent in the Sovereign Bank, there | would have been something in the na- reckless conduct of its affairs.Most of what is admitted by Mr.Jemmett has * been known to the entire banking profes- | sion and to the well-informed press for many months.Irregularities were freely discussed by bankers, but no way was open to compel the controlling parties to refrain -from a recklessness that was bound to end in \u2018trouble.Previous to the advent of the Dresdner Bank and the Morgan intergsts as stockholders im the Sovereign Bank, the capital stock wae widely distributed in small lots.throughout the country, and ib would have been impossible to gecure a combination eof interests large enough to insist upon a change of policy without unfavorably affecting public opinion and sentiment, and thus precipitating trouble.It was different when the Dresdner people became heavy holders of stock, and it shows how gossip spreads in banking circles when the irregularities of the late management were discussed in far-away Germany.We are face to face with the interesting revelation that a German bank and a New York capitalist have saved a Uanadian banking institution from destruction\u2014a\u2019 bank that ranks seventh in the list of chartered banks in the amount of paid-up capital, besides the fact that the name had become almest a household word in every part of the country.If left to its Canadian stockholders alone what would have happened to the bank?A perusal of the present general manager's report will convince everybody that only a most extraordinary change in the financial situation could have replaced the bank upon a solid footing.And yet it is said that Canada has the finest banking system in the world.A system that will admit of such results as seen to-day in the Sovereign Bank statement of profit and loss ss THE MONTREAL DAILY \u201cWITNESS other securities representing so \u201cmuch If Canadians would benefit by the les- the Canadian Bankers\u2019 Association must ! ture of a national calamity through the | for the past year, where it has been re | Britain - with so much success.The independent audit is the only safeguard against the ignorance of the bank's affairs.confessed to by the directorate.An audit would not undertake to value securities, further than to see that they came within the classes required, but it would\u201d enlighten the directors as to what \u2018was going on, and it is almost certain - that, with an audit by outside i accotintants, the writing off of two mil lion dollars would never have been necessary, because the accountant would submit a statement of the most important accounts - to the president and directors when\u2019 called up to do so by the shareholders, .once or twice à year.What Mr.-Jemmett and his independent accountants or inspectors found out would have been noticed, in perhaps a less degree, by chartered accountants engaged: for that purpose, if the: shareholders or government had insisted pon some such form of inspector- ship ot'the bank\u2019s books.The present management of the Sovereign Bank has admitted the necessity of proper inspec: tion.\u2018i moving at the mééting that the head office \u2018and all the branches be inspected at least once a year by the chief inspector; who will make a separate report to the president in addition to his angual report to, the general manager and board of directors.It is not clear just what good that will do if the report madé for\u2019 the general manager and directors: is, as it should be, a thoroughly comprehensive one.It is surely not expected that the report to the general manager will differ in any particular from that written expressly for the president.The chief inspector would indeed\u2019 be consigned to oblivion if he dared to make the president\u2019s report more complete than that to the general manager.No, \u2018there is only one possible solütion to the \u2018difficulties shown by the recent condition of the Sovereign Bank\u2019s assets, and that is an independent accounting, of the head office books by competent chartered accountants, who will be voted for and chogen by the shareholders at eadli arfnual meeting.The Bank of Nova Sébtia \u2018and the Bank of British North ica the independent audit sys- fen aod.pA give the shareholders the - maximum of safeguards, while the ex- pesée ta

the early part of the week, at less than | that pice, but there is nothing but a conjinuous stringent tone reported daily on the money market at this point.Com- | mercial \u201cpaper is quoted here at six to | seven percent and the lower rate is the ; | exception rather than the rule.Brokers.cannot yet tap the coffers of the banks, : despite the most earnest desire to do #0.They are paying, when

help the money market situation, as expected by @ few brokers, on the grounds that bankers have been building up their reserves in expectation of trouble from that source.The banks in the past have not paid sufficient regard to-this end of their business, but it is gratifying to be informed by the prominent bankers here that the whole policy of the Capadian chartered banks has changed for the better in regard to the liquid assets carried in all citcumstances.Nearly every stock on this market lost large fractions during the week, including Capadian Pacific with one point, Power 3% points, Twins a small frac tion,, Toronto Railway 13-4, Detroit 4 1-4, Richelieu a half point, Iron common and preferred also lost a point, while Soo common, after jumping to 105, fell away to 101, but gained

then he betook him- si to more accustomedg regions, and Eyabeth found herself blushingly re- ylying to an enthusiastic how d'y\u2019do from the newcomer, 0 .1 didn't know I was going to strike court-week.\u201d the man said presently, seat: ing himself at the table nearest the din- ing-room door, so that only the few feet ci hallway lay between him and Elizabeth.\u2018If I had, I think I would have vit off coming until later in the month.It's a bad week for business.\u201d He laugh- «| comfortablv, and Elizabeth nodded.He was a thick-set, smooth-shaven young man, well, if rather showily, dressed, and had about him a certain trick of manner which proclaimed him, even to the uninitiated, a commercial traveller.In his nct infrequent trips down the line of litfle Potomac towns, Elizabeth had grown to regard him as an old ac: quaintance, more especially as he had in recent months singled her out among the Litchfield girls as the object of his special attentions\u2014attentions, which he rad hinted on his last visit, were not altogether without intention.It was the remembrance of this that made it harder for her to be quite at her ease with him iow \u2018Heard you'd got a new sheriff since I was down last,\u2019 he began again cheer- tly, after a violent rapping with his knife handle on the table had brought Mose from the kitchen to take his order.Young Cunningham.Seems queer, doesn\u2019t it?\u2018Why?said Elizabeth, shortly.She was holding her small head with its cornet of dusky hair very high.the pink had deepened in her smooth checks, and she moved her chair ever so little nearer the window.\u2018Oh, 1 always thought the Cunninghams | held themselves a little too good for a iob like that.Why nobody knows, for their bad Juck\u2019s a by-word all over the countrv.Kind of stuck on their family, ain't they?Not but what Breck\u2019s a , fair enough chan.and I guess hell do all right as sheriff.Pretty fond of the girls.isn\u2019t he*\u2019 Elizabeth threaded her needle and made an accurate knot before she replied.T really can\u2019t sav, but there is no \u2018me in going to see a girl that I ever heard of.T reckon it\u2019s most time for *he people to be coming over to dinner, and TY have Uncle David calling me down for talkine across the hall during rourt week.\u201d She moved her chair de- Hherately out of his range and turned her attention to the window, A stream of men were issuing from the door of the court-house.and crossing the rad to the hotel.The circuit judge.Unsher.a thin, sallow man, towered above the heads of a group of older law- \u2014\u2014\u2014en a nn NERVOUS si WEAK (OULD NOT SLEEP AT NIGHT To the thousands of people all over this ad who are tossing on sleepless pillows night after night, or whe pace the bedroom foor with nerves unhinged, and to whose oes sleep will not come, MILBURN'S HEART AND NERVE PILLS oor the blessing of sound, refreshing tember They restore the equilibrium of the de- Mnged nerve centres, and bring back the attered nervous system to perfect condi- on.Mr Wm.Richardson, Pontypool, Ont., Writes: \u201cI take greas pleasure in recommending Milburn\u2019s Heart and Nerve Pilla.I was troubled at times with my heart, felt Yk and nervous and could not sleep at Right.I have taken several boxes of the bills and am wonderfully improved.Ihave recommended them to others and Mey have found them just what they deeded,\u201d pp Brion of Milburn's Heart and Nerve 18 50 cents per box or 8 boxes for $1.24 tall dealers or will be mailed direct os il of price by The T.Milburn Ca.muted, Toronto, Ont, e .yers who surrounded him.Looking at his keen aquiline features, and cold, light grey eyes.Eliagbeth could well belicve he deserved the repyation he bore as the hardest, most un ting man on the bench\u2014yet there Were those who had seen him in private life display the gentleness and: tenderness of a woman.k the jurymen, the onlookers, -all who go to make up a crowd like this.en Breck Cunningham, the mnewly-elected county sheriff, appeared from somewhere, Elizabeth suddenly left the window an bent industriously.over her neglected sewing.and Breck\u2019s voice, rich, deep, with an odd little slurring of the syllables, said \u2018Good even\u2019, Miss Elizabeth; she looked up and nodded indifferently.The sheriff lounged into the room, and leaning against the door frame, smiled down at] her.Watching ler Der lashes the girl concluded that his big, loosely knit figure looked bigger than ever in the new grey suit he wore, He carried his soft felt hat in his hand, and she found herself wondering at\u2019 the line of white above the sunburn on his forehead, where he had pushed back his thick, fair hair.: \u2018I didn\u2019t hesr you come,\u2019 she said, not quite ingenuously.Her eyes rested for an instant on the shabby green sofa in the corner.as though in umspoken invitation, and the man followed her glance appreciatively, but shook his head.only stopped for a minute\u2014must get gome dinner and go back.Joe Mullen\u2019s case is on, you know.\u201d \u2018Is he going to be convicted?There was a note of awe in the girl's voice.\u2018You know I don\u2019t think he\u2019s guilty.can\u2019t quite believe it\u2019 The sheriff's square jaw stiffened.\u2018Then you believe different from most people.The case is too clear to admit of any doubt.Hanging\u2019s too good for a man that would brain his own wife and child.If I had my way\u2014 Cunningham paused.The commercial traveller.West, had finished his dinner, and stood in the doorway beside him.\u2018Talking about she Mullen, cage ¥\u2019 he queried blandly.\u2018Baltimore's agag with it.Pity you're a sheriff, Cunningham, and sworn to uphold the law.Weld have you leading a lynching party otherwise\u201d He laughed irritatingly, but the sheriff only shrugged his broad shoulders, and turned to go.Hal way down the hall he heard Elizabeth\u2019s soft call, \u2018Breck, Oh! Breck,\u2019 and went back, Elizabeth eat bolt upright, her lips apart, her blue eyes dark and anxious, but Cunningham did not notice.Instead he saw West sprawling indoleatly | on the sofa he :ould not conscientiously occupy, à smirk of satisfgction on his broad, emooth face, and the sight tore his soul with rage.\u2018Did you want anything ¥ he demanded roughly.The girl\u2019s face changed under the new tone, and two reds spots glowed angrily in ber cheeks, .\u2018Oh! no\u2014\u2019 she drawled, \u2018I only thought I'd ask you how far you'd have been if I hadn't called you.\u2019 She tossed her head and picked up her sewing, while- Cunningham, With one quick, half- contemptuous, half appealing look in her direction, strode off to the dining-room, conscious that his exit was followed by West's loud, self-satisfied laughter.That night, as he came out from supper and passed thé house-end of the long vine-sheltered piazza, he heard the same soft call, \u2018 Breck, oh! Breck!\u201d He paused irresolutely an instant\u2014no, she should not make a fool of him again, and he started on.\u2018Aren\u2019t you going to say good-night_to me, Breck ?\u2019 said Elizabeth, gently.Her white drees gleamed the clustering vines, her ymall hand was human.He swung himself up beside her with ruthless, crushing of honeysuckle and creeper, and smothered her faint cry of protest with his kisses, I love you!\u2019 he muttered, holding her slender wrists with a grip of iron when she would have left him.When wil} you marry me, Elizabeth ¥ When you have proved youreelf a man worth marrying, Breck.When you have showed not only me, but other people, that you can do something\u2014 now, Breck, let me go.\u201cWhen I am dead, you mean, 1 suppose,\u2019 the man said bitterly.There never was a Cunningham who did avny- thing worth while.Their luck is against them.Good-night.\u201d He swung himself over the railing again and d:s- appeared into the dusk, without a backward glance at the white-clad figure standing among the bruised and broken vines.Three days later the town of Litch- field and the whole county rang with the conviction of Joe Mullen es the murderer of his wife and child.Judge Upsher\u2019s charge to the jury on that occasion had been a memorable one, and: his few scathing words to the condemned man bad caused even old and time- hardened lawyers to turn pale.The case had been very clear against\u2019 Mullen, yet there was little surprise expressed when it was known that he had appealed to à higher court, and had %een granted a second trial.The iniervening time was to be spent in the lLacchfield jail.(To be continues.) CHILDREN'S CORNER.MARY AND TROT.When I lived in Colorado a little girl named Mary who attended the school near my home lived two miles away.There was no road nor path to guide her across the plain, not even a bush or tree.Mary was about eight years old.She had a shaggy shepherd dog named Trot that came with her every day and waited for her until school was over.\u2018 Mary,\u201d I said to her one day, \u2018 why do you bring your dog to school ?He cannot learn to read and write.\u2018Oh,\u2019 said Mary, \u2018I do not bring \u2018T'rot; he brings me.I could pot find the way alone.\u2019 \u2019 \u2018How did Trot learn to find the way ?1 asked, \u2018and does he never get tired of waiting and go home without u \u2018The first time we came,\u201d replied Mary, \u2018father came with us.hen we reached the school I gave Trot a viece of meat, and when we reached of the judge came the younger lawyers, | When a shadow fell across the work, |: him from under her} ing tempt- | ingly on the railing, and he sheriff\u2019 THE MONTREAL merits of the only EGTIONAL A Rare Combination.Telephone Main 4825.home I gave him some more.No one ever feeds him but me.The first two.or three days we had to tie him.If he should go back without me father would bring him right back, and that night he would have no potatoes for his supper.He likes school as well as I do.\u2019 One day about twelve o'clock / the wind clouds began to gather.Chil: dren who have never seen a Western wind storm can hardly imagine what it is like.In Colorado it does not rain at all during the winter, so the sand is very dry and light.The wind lifts it up from the ground and whirls it round as if it were raining sand.It chokes and blinds you.On this day the teacher saw the clouds gathering.She closed the school and gent the children home, thinking they could reach ehelter before the storm broke.I.too.noticed the darkening skies, and thought at once of brave little Mary as I hastened to the school.I found that Mary had already started for home.* Soon the storm came; the \u2018wind howled; the sky grew ark and the sand whirled.Poor little child, alone on the vast praire! How would she survive the fright, even if she-were not entirely Jost ?As soon as the wind subsided I got on my horse and rode to her home, to find if she kad arrived.Mary \u2018met me at the door.- , \u2018Well, I am glad to see you safe, said I.: .- \u2018Do you not think,\u201d said Maxy\u2019s mo ther, \u2018 that dogs know as much as some ople ?Mary and Trbt weré about i way.\u2018home when the! wind com: menced to blow.There is an old dug- way they always take home.Trot took hold of Mary's dress and led her, for the sand blew so in her eyes she could not see where she was going.\u2018They cuddled down in the dugout together until the storm was over.\u2019 This is a true story of the Colorado plains, and Mary and Trot came to school together \u2014\u2018 The Saturday Budget.rte TAKING OARE OF KITTY.They brushed the clothes, they beat the clothes, One sunny April day\u2014 Their winter clothes, then They packed them all away In paper boxes tied around, With very strongest strings, First freely springling them with some Tobacco dust and camphor gum.And when their labor done they took .Their tea and toasted bread, \u2018Why, where is kitty ?\u2019 someone asked, And \u2018I know,\u201d Lulu said; \u2018She's in my dollies\u2019 biggest trunk; I brushed and beated her; There can\u2019t not any moths, I dess, Det into her nice fur.She scratched my fingers when I put The camphor stuff about, Div\u2019 me some toast that's buttered froo.\u2019 They left it all to her and flew To get poor kitty out.\u2014Bugene Field, pn WHAT SAITH THE SCRIPTURE?FRIDAY, JUNE 14.\u2018AS\u2019 IN PETER\u2019S FIRST EPISTLE.This little word so frequently used means even as, like as, according as.It 18 used by Peter of Christ and His followers.In I.Pet.1, 15, as Christ 's holy, so His followers are to be holy in daily Mving.Christ-like in their lives, to walk as He walked.\u2018They have been redeemed from their sinful course of life by the precious blood of Christ as the lamb without spot or blemish, which forever frees from the guilt and defilement of all sin.(Verses 18-23.) See chap.iv, 1.As Obrist died for sin reckon yourselves dead to it.Then in verse 24, all flesh is as grass, whose oodness withers, but the Word of the rd in the Gospel endures forever.The true believer is like the young cedar, ever fresh and growing.(Ps.xcii, 15.) \u2018Then in Ch.ii, 2, believers are to be as vew-born babes, to have a longing for the pure milk of God\u2019s Word, This 1s the only food to nourish the epiritual life.For want \u2018of this nutriment mult.tudes of Christians are weak and fruitless in their spiritual life.Then in Ob.ii., 4, 5, believers are as living stones in the spiritual Temple of God.They are the houee of worship and the priesthood Christ is the foundation.Then in chap.év., 10, 11, each one is to minister according to his special gift as a steward of Gods manifold grace, that God may be glorified through Christ.Notice the practical lesson in chap.iu, 11, 12.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 Grand Trunk Railway System, MONTREAL-MASSENA SPRINGS.Effective Monday, June 17th, 1907, the train now leaving Montreal at 7.00 a.m.I mean\u2014end will leave at 6.55 a.m.PRESBYTERIAN ASSEMBLY Delegates should avail themselves of the present opportunity to enquire into the Made in Cansda by a purely Canadian Company.BETTER IN QUALITY!

The day\u2019s work commenced with the consideration and adoption, on motion of Principal Patrick, of the commuttee\u2019s \u2018on, the minister-evangelists\u2019 Æhe recommendations were to with but little discussion.On the point of the status of the minieter- evangelist the committee suggested that when the \u2018evangalist was appointed dor a year on à mission field he should be a seat in the Presbytery.The uatter was referred to a committee.A proposal was made to give authority to dispense sealing >rders, and to marry.o any catechist, atudent or min- tester who has not yet been admitted by the General Assembly, and to ordain where necessary for these purposes; but this authority shall be revocable at any moment and ehall not coafer the ministerial status.- \u2018This, said Frincipal Patrick, appeared to be a most revolutionary proposal but it was a mild one.Laughter.) 1t would solve many of the dithculties they bad found, especially in the west.\u2018l'as rue was in use in Labrador and it vas in use in the Methodist Church.It was an ordination «d hoc\u2014for a specific purpose.When these men ceased to perform the duties for which they were granted these powers, any authority would be recalled.It was an absolutely necessary step to take in our mission fields.a \u2018proposal would be heartily welcomed by every man on the frontier line.Sir Thomas Taylor warned the Assembly that this imterfering with the question of marriage was a dangerous matter.The question touched on the law of the land.; Principal Patrick was glad that this point had been raised, but he Bad obtained most able legal opipions and he could assure the Assembly that they had taken every possible care to keep within their powers.: Principal Maclaren\u2019 asked if the committee had made legal inquiries as to whether the law of this Church was surficient for thie \u201cpu _ Further, he thought thet the revocation of ordination \u2018was a new principle in Prés- yterianism.He had always thought their rule was \u2018once a minister, always a minister.\u201d ; The Rev.John Mackay thought that this was a most important thing and unless the matter were dealt with by this Assembly they would lose the services of many of the men working for them in the west, ; After further discussion, the subject was hung up by the adjournment.PAN-PRESBYTERIAN REPRESENTATIVE.course.\\ Dr.Matthews, secretary of the Pan- Presbyterian Council, was pleased to be present as it recalled the times when he was a member.He regretted the absence of so many of the faces of those he was accustomed to eee.He brought the salutations of the eastern section.The brethren in the west seemed to think that the movement of the east wae a slow one, but they did not appreciate their difficulties.He enumerated the difficulties of his work in Europe, especially mentioning the effect of state control.\u2018On the continent the churches resent keenly any interference.It was no use attempting evangelistic work, for they would only be looked on as intruders.But they could help them with advice that would be met with kindliness and gratitude.Principal Scrimger proposed a resolution of sympathy with the work of the Alliance.Principal McLaren seconded, and it was agreed to.° The report of the committee concerning the treasurer wae presented by the Rev.D.Strachan.DR.SOMERVILLE FOR TREASURER.Princi Scrimger proposed the election of Per.Somerville a8 rmanent treasurer.The Church had n most fortunate in having an official who was ab'e to take up the position made vacant by the resignation of Mr.War den.> The election was unanimous.Mr.Alex.Stuart, K.C., proposed the appointment of the Rev.A.Gandier as financiai agent for the Western Church.This was seconded by Mr.J.R.Reid.Dr.Dixon proposed that the matter be relegated to a committee.The Rev.G.Macarthur, of Cardinal, seconded.Discussion eneuing, the Assembly ad, journed.eparsely attended even than the morning.Resuming the debate on the ap- intment of a Church agent, the Rev.5 Strachan said that there was no intention on the part of the committee to create a new office.The late Dr.Warden held the posts of treasurer and: agent and the committee simply desired to separate the two.It was thought best that the treasurer should be always on the spot.The committee believed that the one appointment depended on the other.The Rev.Mr.Tufte supported the appointment and felt that it was a neces ASSEMBLY DISSOLVED: Confirms Appointments and Receives Acceptance of Officé From , mission RAL ~ Officers., -POLITY UNDER DIS- increasing expenditure, and a greater income w necessary.The hard- | est thing was the breaking of new p .Circulars would not do it would want a man with a message and one of stro reonality, and such a man they in Mr, Gandier.The Rev.James Buchanan, Dundalk, thought that all the Presbyteries could act individually and do the work necessary.He told the Assembly what had been done im his Presbytéry, where they were not hindered by great men (Laughter.) He gupported the amend- me _ Principal Gordon, as a member of the committee, said it was distinctly.under- that these two appointments were dependent on each other.The position of the Church requires that the duties of the agent should not only be carried on, but extended.There was a great amount of wealth in the Church that had not been touched, and it was necessary to get the sympathies of the richer men.The Rev.D.Strachan proposed, and it was resolved, that the whole matter be remitted to a committee.The committee on temperance and -moral reform tecommended appointment of tbe Rev.J.G.Shesrer of Torento, as agent, and sugg i the necessary steps to be taken resulting therefrom.SABBATH OBSERVA RCE.The Rev.Mr.Shearer said he was deeply sensible of the \u201chonor done him in offering him post.He was a servant of the Lords Day Alliance, however, and as he had no opper- tunity of consulting his brother officials he must ask for time before he- could give his decision.He had an ännounce- \u2018ment to make which he thought they would be delighted to hear.He stated that be had just had the honor of interviewing the Hon.Mr.Gouin, Premier of the province, on the\u2026 subject of the Lord\u2019e Day Act and its enforcement.The Premier had declared that the vincial law must be respected, and that where the Federal law applied and the provincial law failed to apply, the Federal law must be respected.There had been eighteen recent convictions in Winnipeg, said the Rev.Mr.Shearer, for breach of the act.These convictions, he thought, indicated the attitude of (he Attorney-General of Manitoba with no uncertain voice.The recommendations were then: pass- * ac - The recommendations of the foreign committee, were presented.\u201cThese approved the proposed expenditure; appointed Mr.Hamilton Cassils and Dr.Baird to the Indian Government\u2019s.advisory board; approved the suggestion that a mission be started amongst the Hebrews in Toronto; and° tbat the resolution concerning Chinese immigrants.passed at the China Centenary meeting, be endorsed.~ An overture from Victoria concerning the appointment of a superintendent of foreign missions was read.Dr.ED.Millar said that the committee were of opinion that the time had not yet come for such appointment.By the \u2018 minister-evangelist\u2019 committee\u2019s report a modus vivendi had apparently been reached, for Principal .Patrick\u2019 recognized the need for a change in the present system of catechists without pawer to perform the ceremony of marriage, and also emphasi the fact that ministers accepted from other churches to work in the heme missions should be émpowered to perform the ceremony even before receiving a full ministenal status.: The recommendations of the committee were at last adopted.A number of special ordinations applied for were.read and granted.The committee of Sabbath-schools recommended that efforts be made to retain the older scholars; to promote systematic Bible study; to bring the young into saving relations with Jesus Christ; that study of the course of instruction in missions be advocated; that the work of the Sabbath School Committee be recognized as one of the schemes of the Church; and that the thanks of the Assembly be accorded to the Rev.J.Neil, D.D., for his eight years of devoted work.The ministers\u2019 widows\u2019 and orphans\u2019 fund report, eastern section; was presented by Dr.Sedgwick.# The fand was in a good position, the assets showing an increase of $7,602.56.The rer port was adopted.The western section was presented by the Rev.A.H.McGillivray, who pointed out that the contributions of the congregations had decreased by $1,812.54.The report and recommendations were eed to.Dr.Falconer, taking the chair,/the moderator read the report of the fund in connection with the Church of Scotland.This showed a balance of receipts over expenditure of $2,888.73.Toronto Presbytery overtured the Assem- recommendin bly, g that all ministers, present and to come, be ired to connect with the widows\u2019 and orphans\u2019 and the aged and infirm ministers\u2019 funds.e Rev.A.H.McGillivray supported the overture.He thought that it would be a gentie control, and although it might be a somewhat revo- Jutionary proposal it would act for good in the long run.He belived that every minister would welcome such a proposal.On a suggestion from Dr.ick the matter was sent down to the committee.The recommendations of the committee of the young people\u2019s societies, which had for their object the improvement \u2018| and extension of the work of the various societies, were presented by the Rev.D.W.Best, and agreed to.The committee on the establishment bia reported that th recommended that the sessions be held in Vancouver till the question of & site is determined.For the present.the government is vested in a of management and senate.They advised that the election of a principal be left to & \u2018joint meeting of the board and the senate.Dr.de moved the adoption of the report, which was carried the recommendations of the committee, with slight amendments, were ed upon.e session then stood adjourned.CLOSING SESSION.i At the ing of the ¢vening session the Rev.G.B.Wilson said tha: hawviag iven the question of his app rmtment ES Mimsy superintendent for Brit:sh Columbia mature consideration, he re sympathy of his brethren.Principal Scrimger presented the special committee's report on the duties of the financial agent.These, he said, did pot interfere im the \u2018slightest with any other official.The recommendations of the committee were that the Rev.Alfred Gender, of St.James Church, Toronto, be appointed agent of the church for the western section, forward mis gionary and other work of the church, to mote the organization of synods, pres teries, and congregations, to advise and te with the various committees and boards, and to address atu- dente of theological colleges on organization, etc.His salary to be $3,500, with al Wraveiling expenses paid, the money to be raised pro rata from all funds within the sphere of his jurisdiction.In explanation of the salary.offered r.i said that it had been fixed with the apecial object of securing Mr.Gandier\u2019s services, and they had therefore settled it at an amount equal to his present etipend.The Rev.Mr.Gandier said that his first thought was one of great gratitude to the essembly for the honor done him in offering him so important a position.There was a great work to be done, and he realized to the full the grave obligation imposed upon bim\u2014it seemed, to him the most momentous decision he had been called upon to make.Under these circumstances he felt that he could not give an immediate reply., Dr.Somerville said that after hearing the [report all his difficulties had gone.of work with Mr.Gandier.He now looked forward to @ bright future inc the church, and he accepted the position offered him.; Principal Scrimger said that the committee thought the best thing to do was to appoint a special committee to receive Mr.Gandier's enswer.Dr.Fraser seconded.He knew with what grief the news of this appointment would be received by Mr.Gandier\u2019s congregation.He expressed warm \"appreciation of Mr.Gandier\u2019s work at St.James, and said that the congregation would \u2018be greatly surprised at this proposition and distressed at the prospect of losing their pastor's services.This was adopted unanimously, The assembly agreed to give instruc tions to the Presbytery of Toronto to relieve Mr.Gandier in the event of his ecceptance.The same was agreed upon in the case of Mr.Wilson and his vener\u2018 of the Home Mission Committee in place of Dr.Somerville.Dr.Ramsey presented the recommendations of the committee on the method of appointing standing committees.On the suggestion that these be taken seratim, Dr.Sedgwick objected that this was a new scheme, and it would be injudicious to discuss it at that late period.He proposed that inquiries be made in the Old Country and the report be brought up at the next assembly.- Ç Mr.Walter Paul geconded.Principal Patrick said the work of Dr.Ramsay and the committee should be acknowledged, for they had spent a great amount of time over this to perfect the report.Co.CHURCH STATISTICS.The report of the committee on statistics was presnted by Dr.Somerville.He.called the attention of the A:sembly to the new form of the tables of figures.The tables showed 138,567 families in the church, an increase of 7,958; 253,392 com-* municants, an {increase of 11,881; those added on profession of faith numbered 16,170, an increase of 1,770.Financially the report showed total contributions for stipend of $1,219,658, an increase of $83, 622; contributions for missions, $592,117, an increase of $101,120; for schemes of the church, $357,479, not including donations, and a grand total for all purposes of $3,351,284, an increase of $271,111.* He proposed that the report be adopted he recommendations of the .committee were then submitted and agreed t - o.The report of the finance committee, eastern section, was adopted on the yrv- position of Dr.Falconer, and the reports of the board of trustees, western section, and the audit of church accounts were explained by the treasurer, and were passed, on the motion of Principal Scrimger.; The reports of \u2018The Presbyterian Record\u2019 and the committee on Sabbath school publications were read and received.The Winnipeg office and the Synod rolls were passed.An overture from Winnipeg requesting the placing on the roll of the name of \u2018an assistant pastor was received and referred to the pres byteries.Another concerning the payment of travelling expenses of commis sioners, from British Columbia, was received and agreed to.THEOLOGICAL ARGUMENT.The Rev.E.D.Millar presented an overture on the question of baptism, and at 10.30 o'clock the house found itself plunged into a theological argument.The Rev.A.Miller, of Lochalsh.Ont, then brought up a grievance which was peculiar to Gaelic speaking congregations.The law of the church, he said, was that baptism could not be administered to children unless at least one parent was in gary one.They were face to face with of a theological college in Britith Colum- | spectfully accepted it, and asked for the.W forward, to a very happy line{: Dr.E.D.Maclaren was appointed con-| visible communion with the church.But | THE MONTREAL DAILY WITNESS many of the Gaelic-speaking descendants of cautious Highlanders feared to enter into full communion with the church by the sacrament, but stil} professed a\u2019credible profession of faith when the question of baptism of their children came up.He asked that the law under present conditions be relaxed to meet this case, so that the Gaelic children could be baptized.: This started a discussion which lasted for some time, and was participated in by Principal Berimger Dr.Duval, Dr.Sedgwick and others, the genera) opinion appearing to be that Mr.Miller was rather straining his interpretation of the church law, and that it was not an opportune time to legislate on the point.Finally, Principal Scrimger moved in amendment that \u2018the Assembly declare that the overture be received and that in its opinion the present law is sufii- cient to grant the favor craved.\u2019 The business was now concluded to every one\u2019s relief.Votes of thanks were passed to the pastor (Dr.Mowatt) and congregation of Erskine Church for the use of that church; to the hosts and hostesses of the delegates while in the city; to the authorities of MoGill, the American Presbyterian Church for their courtesies, to the railways and steamship\u2019 lines for their special rates, and to the press for its ample reports of the proceedings.e business being finished shortly before midnight the moderator addressed the Assembly, briefly reviewing the proceedings, after which a prayer was offered.The moderator then closed the Assembly in the solemn, historic fashion; by calling upon the delegates to sing the '122nd Psalm.At the conclusion of the psalm the delegates remained standing, and the moderator proceeded: \u2018In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, only King and Head of the Church, and by authority of this Assembly, I do now dissolve this Assembly, and order another general assembly of the Presbyterian Church in Canada to meet in the city of Winnipeg, and within Knox Church there, at 8 o\u2019clock in the evening on the first Wednesday in June, in the year of our Lord 1908 THe moderator: then pronounced the benediction, .and after a few moments of silent prayer the General Assembly ad- joürned for another year.\u201cTRIBUTE TO PROFESSOR SOOTTISH COLLEAGUE REFERS TO WORK OF THE REV.A.R.GORDON.(Canadian Associated Press.)

YUKON.Ottawa, June 13.\u2014The Department of Justice has decided that the Lord\u2019s Day Act is applicable to the Yukon territory and that it is the duty of the officers of the law to enforce it.For some time the opinion had been prevalent in the Yukon that the act could not be applied inasmuch as its enforcement is entrusted to the \u2018Attorney-General of the province.\u2019 and the Yukon not being a province or having an attorney-general, the territory would be exempt.The Deputy Minister of Justice pointed out, héwever, that under the interprétation act the North West Territories and the Yukon are specified as provinces, the attorney-general for which is the Attorney-General of the Dominion.There is consternation in Dawson over this decision.as it is contended that with the short summer season it will entaïl severe loss upon the mining and navigation interests to sus pend work on Sunday.\u2014 MR.CHAMBERLAIN HOME.Birmi m, June 13.\u2014Mr.and Mrs, Chamberla: ved here to-day

correspondent of the \u2018Express\u2019 says: \u2018I am informed by a person closely connected with the German court that the Kaiser has personally degraded his cousin, the Prince Fredrick Henry of Prussia, ex pelled him from the court and army, and banished him from Germany.The Kaiser dictated this severe punishment on receiving substantial information that the Prince was addicted to certain practices.The Prince is the eldest son of the late Prince Albrecht, regent of Brunswick, and, owing to his near relationship to the Kaiser, occupied a prominent position in the German court.He entered the army at the age of 28, and became colonel of the First Brandenberg Dragoon Guards.Recently, when the serious accusations which led to his disgrace and banishment became known, great surprise was caused, because the \u2018Prince had gained the name of a regular and devout church-goer as the most pious member of the imperial family.When the Kaiser ascertained the nature of the charges he summoned his young cousin to the palace, and before some army officers personally performed the ceremony of degradation.The Emperor tore the order and the decorations from the prince\u2019s breast and soundly boxed his ears.The Prince, in tears, left the palace without a word, drove hurriedly to his own residence and left Berlin the same evening for Egypt.He is.now said to be living in a remote spot in the Khedive's dominions.The Kaiser has ordered that his name be never again mentioned in his hearing.The police bave ed instructions to expel him from the \\country if he attempts to return.Shortly before his disgrace the Prince was appointed grand master of the Knightly Order of St.John.The appointment has been cancelled by an imperial] decree.The Prince is now 33 years old.He inherited a fortune of approximately $7,500,000 from his father, in addition to extensive estates and a magnificent palace in Wilhelm Strasse, Berlin.Berlin, June 13\u2014In consequence of the charge of perversity made against him by Prince Philip Eulenberg, the tribu- nai, at Charlottenourg, a suburb of Berlin, has hgen directed by the Court at Prenzlau, where the charge is lodged, te have Maximilian Hardan testify in the case under oath .Herr Harden is the owner of the \u2018Zukunft,\u2019 in which insinuations about Prince Eulenberg and his camarilla were recently published.His testimony will be taken in the course of the next few days.Frau Von Elbe, the divorced wife of Count Cuno Von Moltke, is said to have given Herr Harden the information on which he based his insinuation.Prince Eulenberg was an intimate friend of the Kaiser, and he wielded great influence with His Majesty.It is generally believed that he and his friends were responsible for the retirement of Chancellor Von Caprivi.Some time ago the \u2018Zukunft\u2019 published a grave story of debauchery practised by some of the highest men in the empire, who, according to the paper, formed what was known as Eulenberg\u2019s round table.Included in the number was Count Cuno Von Moltke, who, as a result of the revelations was dismissed from his post of governor of Berlin.He challenged Herr Harden to fight a duel, but the latter refused to meet him.Prince Eulenberg, in order to force a hearing of the matter, has apparently made a charge against himself, and will thus compel Herr Harden to testify as to his knowledge of the crimes charged.SMALLPOX IN ONTARIO SERIOUS STATE OF AFFAIRS RF- PORTED BY HEALTH INSPECTOR.Toronto, June 13.\u2014Dr.R.W.Bell, inspector of the Provincial Board of Health, has returned from a visit to sections of Leeds and Grenville, and reports a serious condition of affairs in regard to smallpox.This is particularly true of Matilda and Edwardsburg townships, in Grenville, and around the village of Athens, the township of Bastard and Maliorytown and vicinity, Leeds county.There has been and still 18 a Jarge number of cases of the disease, which has spread because of neglect.In some sections the disease has been allowed to make headway for the past two or three months without apparently the slightest attempt to check it.There has been little or no quarantine and an almost total disregard of disinfection.Not only recovered patients, but members of their families who have been exposed to the disease, have been allowed to go to school or work all the time.While in a majority of the cases the disease 18 of a mild type, there are rome very severe cases in the County of Gren- ville.UNDER MEDICAL ACT WOMAN FINED FIFTY DOLLARS IN TORONTO FOR
