Tuesday, August 6th.He had been in poor health during the past three years, being afflicted with à disease of the kidneys.Of late his condition had been particularly Cis- tressing, and his death did not come unexpected.Before his health failed the late Mr.Demick was a very active man, Aside from his farming interests he owned and operated a sawmill for many years.He will be much missed, not only from the family circle, but by a large namber of other relatives and friends.Deceased was 63 years of age.The funeral will take place at 8 o'clock this afternoon; in- Voting on the by-law for a loau of 825,000 to consolidate the municipal debt of Rock Island and provide for la new civic building took place on , Tuesday.Public apathy was the chief feature.Owing to illness tbe Mayor (wae absent.Hall an hour after the jpoll opened the secretary tremsurer had to go out and \u201cdram up\u201d a few irate-payers in order to secure & presiding officer.During the day thirty four votes were cast for and three against the by-law.The total valuation of these thirty seven electors aggregates 282,940, just abont one third of the taxable valuation of the ; municipality.Some of the remaining two thirds did not take sufficient interest in the by-law to learn when the voting was to take place.The reason for this remarkable indifference tu civic affairs is pazzling some people.An explanation offered by one citizen is that the community is pretty thoroughly given over to commerocialiem, its citizens being so well satisfied with their own material prosperity as to be indifferent to such trifles as a 825,000 municipal debt.THE COUNTY SHERIFF.The theatre-goers will have a treat in store when \u201cThe County Sheriff\" comes to Rink Opera House on Wednesday, Aug.14th, 1912.This is one

The weather was never 80 cold, or wet, or blustery that she could not get cut to her union, or the Sunday school, or prayer meeting, even when the snows of eighty winters rested upon her.People said she enjoyed perpetual youth.The secret was that her heart was young and she never wearied in doing the little duties that came to her.There is long life in work.\u201cNerves\u201d ! come less often from over-work than | from over-fret.It is good for the brain to have plenty to think about, | work to plan and letters to write.It | is good for one\u2019s soul to have respon- aibility.It makes a strong, resolute | and helpful character to have a mul- | tiplicity of matters to look after, and almost no one to help you carry the burden.One becomes resourceful, broad-minded, quick of decision, cheerful under difficulties.No one | else ever accomplishes so much as the | thrice busy woman.| Often the choice of a local leader falls upon a woman, bright, earnest, capable and willing, but alas! With ber hands and heart already full.Perhaps she is the president of the | Ald, a teacher in Sunday school, a leader in missionary circles, the treasurer io a woman\u2019s club, and has a family to look after besides.Under.the circumstances our good sister's heart sinks within her and she thinks that she is going to be over-worked to the point of a break-down.But she! will not.Ï She will etand it and go through it, | just as she will stand the extra strain of having visitors for six weeks, or typhoid fever in the family, or a wedding.And she wi.! develop.all the time, She will become a trained worker who conserves every effort, makes every move count and wastes and fritters away no time.As Mrs.Clara Hoffman used to say, * 1 would dot give the snap of my finger fora woman in the W.O.T.U.work who is not already twice busy.She never amounts to anything unless she is ove of the busy women.\u201d The busy woman has not time to get sick.She thinks of something else besides her aches and pains.Isome- times think membership in the W.C.T.U.is a very good life preserver.\u201cShe does the most for God's great world, who does the best in her own little world.\u201d i | i ! + | 1 oN Mayo\u2019s Cut Plug 37 years on the market Is Best Prove it?Ask any old timer.Easy!

the language used was, to say the least, not edifying.In the end the Mayor and Conncilor Ball were appointed a committee to engage a constable; nothing was said about removing the cause of the rowing.PETITION FOR SEWERS.A numerously signed petition asking that the sewerage and building questions be submitted to the ratepayers jointly was submitted.Serious consideration of this petition would, of course, have meant the repeal of the building by-law, voting on which was to take place the following day.Naturally the question of cost came up, bat none of the councilors seemed to know the amount of the engineer's estimate or the whereabouts of the plans, ete., which were paid for out of the municipal treasury.Councilor Norris was of the opinion that the cost was estimated at something like 813,- 000 when the surveys were made, but the village had grown some since that time.He was in favor of a sewerage syetem If the cost would not he too high; a municipal bullding could be put up at a cost of 88,000; and this would leave a balance of #8,500 which might properly, under the provisions of the present by-law, be turned to a sewerage system.Councilor Gilmore moved, seconded by Counnoilor Norris, \u2018That the petition be laid on the table tor further consideration.\u201d Although a number of the petitioners were present, no one pressed their olaims.If the petition had been made before the final adoption of the last] by-law it would bave stood a better chance for success.Mr.R.C.Parsons was present and asked to have the road to hie property at the top of the Plain hill taken over by the corporation.Although not graded up to the road department\u2019s requirements he promised that it would be within a few daye.If the council would accept the road the Water Company would then lay down a 4 in.main and put in a hydrant for fire protection.The petitioner did not wish to go to the expense of laying a small pipe to his property as this wonld become useless when the larger pipe was laid.The matter was referred to a special committee composed of Mayor Melloon, Councilors Kathan and Ball.The fallowing bille were bomolo- gated: Mr.Morrell, eprinkler tank, 862 50, Morrill & Tilton 812.55; C.E.Lee 86.50.The secretary-treasurer announced that more funds were neceseary to meot current expenses, and a further temporary loan of £5600 was authorized.Mr.8t.Pierre said that the corporation had been spending over 8400 weekly on roads, etc., until this branch of municipal work was discontinued a short time ago.SCOTT\u2019S .EMULSION is, above all other things, the remedy for sickly, wasted chil- \u2018dren.;

terminating in a tragedy at about seven o'clock Saturday evening when ina quarrel a man named David Goyette, a painter in the employ of Charles Burnett, was struck on the head and knocked down by a man named Edmond Gerardin, a laborer employed by O.H.Kathan.Because of their condition both men were not altogether responsible for their acts.After laying out his opponent Gerardin started to escape down the passage between the Pike building and the Rock Ieland House, but was himself knocked down and rendered unconscious for the moment by some one who followed him up.When he regained his consciousness and got on bis feet, after rolling about in the mud, he was allowed to go.In the meantime his victim, who had been carried inside, lay unconscious, bleeding from a wound above his left temple, and the physician summoned expressed the opinion that had the blow which made the wound been an inch lower death would have been the result.The conflict took place on the Main street and some who witnessed it claim that Gerardin struck his opponent with a stone which he had plcked up for the purpose; others say he did not, the latter holding that the wound must have been caused by the fall.Constable Millet was out of town and the mob held sway for some time, blocking the sidewalk until the arrival of Councilors Norris and Gilmore.Afterwards Gerardin was taken into custody at his home and locked up until Mondsy morning, when be was flned 89.00 and costs, then allowed to go on suspended sentence.Thoughts are naturally turned to the cause of all this disgrace; a stock argument against prohibition has always been that \u2018prohibition does not prohibit.\u201d People who use this argument profess to believe in license as a means of \u2018controlling\u2019 the liquor evil.Saturday\u2019s experience shows a striking example of the failure of license to \u2018\u2018control\u201d anything except people\u2019s senses.m Daylight Store perfect.Saturday, August 25 and

Harmices.The decision of all medical experts at bome or abroed, meaning thereby such as have especially made a study Jf the effects of alcoho) on the humaz body in health or disease, is that al cohol 1s a poison in any form, in any quantity, at any time, under any con ition, fn health or disease, either as a beverage or as a medicine.This view practically eliminates alcoho! in any relation to the human economy.writes L D.Mason, M.D.in the Temperance.Bir Vic Horsley, F.R.C.8, the celebra neurologist ahd surgeon of London, England, sums up the whole situation in a few words: \u201cOne conclusion emerges from the re cent investigation of the whole aloohol question, namely that it ts quite impossible to state that any given minimum amount of the drug is harmless to our tissues,\u201d and we may add, this statement holds good either in health or disease.Alcobol 18 a protoplasmic poleon.\u201cThe organism is not an individual but a social mechanism, always bring ing us at last to cells.\"\u2014Virchow, The most remarkable evidence of the increasing disuse of alcobol in dis easo ts found in the \"records of sup plies\u201d tn the London Metropolitan Hospitals.In the comparative con sumption of spirits, wines and malt liquors in a period of fifty years the liquor bill is three times lèss and the milk bill three times more There has been a steady decrease and Increase In these particulars and it is more marked every year along the lines of economy and medical prac tice.In Europe and this country there are epecial hospitals known as \u201ctemperance hospitals\u201d in which alco hol fe not used at all.In the London County Asylum the comparative consumption and decrease in the use of apirits, wine and beer is remarkable in a perfod dating from 1880 to 1905 and 1906.In 1889 the amount of spirits and wine consumed was 1,903 gal tons; fn 1905 and 1906, 205 ns.Beer consumed in 1899, 256,468 gallons; in 1905 and 19068, 1,281% Gal lons.From these facts there can be no doubt as a universal, world-wide fact that the hospitals of the world (tor the fact applies in a measure to all civilized countries) are eliminating alcohol as a remedy in medical prac tice; and hospital practice regulates as 8 rule, and determines general med- fcal practice.The effects of alcobol on the tntel- lectual faculties and higher brain are | best shown {n the words of Dr.Clous- : ton, the celebrated neurologist and .mental specialist of London, England: \u201cFrom the medical and scientific point | of view we have this great physiolog- ; leal fact before us\u2014that the first thing i that alcohol does in 99 cases out of | 100 18 to effect the mental working of !the brain of the man who imbibes\u201d + The lunacy statistics of England :and Wales as shown in the elxty-third | report of the commissioners contains among other interesting and important facts the following statement: \u201cTaking a survey of the last fifty | years it is seen that lunacy has {(n- | creased from 36,762 cases in 1859 to ; 128,787 cases on January 1, 1909, an 1n- \u2018crease of 92,026.This Is not merely an actual increase keeping pace with the increase of population.It le a vest proportionate increase, for whilat population has increased by 81.5 per cent, lunacy has increased 250 per cent.\u201d Dr.Clouston in the report of Morningside Asylum as early as 1903 says: \u201cAlcoholic insanity steadily goes up and now it has doubled.\u201d All neurologists in this country and in Europe agree that all nervous diseases and lusanity are at the present time largely on the increase and the use of alcohol is a prominent basic factor in this increase, to gay nothing of other forms of disease not specific ally affecting tho nervous system.Whether we consider alcohol as a drug to be used in medicine or as a beverage in dally life, we can only say of it after a consideration of the high: est sclentific and medical expert testimony in all centers of civilization, that ft has no place in the human economy as a drug or beverage In disease or health; that its action \u201cis evil and only evil and that continu ally\u201d One has only to read the pro ceedings of the American Society for the Study of Alcohol and Other Narcotics, the American Journal of In.ebriety and the numerous articles in the American medical prees as well as the papers read In the various medical societies and the active interest taken dy many prominent American practitioners, to know the attitude of medicine in America towards alcoho! as a drug.The same holde true of special journalism in Great Britain and on the Continent, as represented in the British Journal of Inebriety and the large influential society of medical men it represents, and tbe general attitude of the fnfluential medical pub- lc to the cause, and practice of medical or scientific temperance, so-called.and a growing conservatism in the use of alcohoi in disease, and Ks grad.val elimination from medical prac thos.Liquors Mot Needed.\u201cFermented and distilled liquors are never necessary for any purpose, ex cept in certain persons io whom the badit bas crested a need of them truiv

Far up to the north, near the snow line on the high mountains, are wil, lows, dwarf alders and birches, while below are firs and spruces, some of them hundreds of years old.Under them ls verdure clothing the mountainsides eo rank and eo green that in imagination one 1s transplanted to, tropical climates.This 1s especially! pleasing to the eye, after the long.| hard winter.This luxuriance is the result of the | long summer days and the fact that for ages the forests have been und!s | turbed.One log has fallen upon another and decayed, producing a rich vegetable muck in which almost everything will grow.The richness and softness of the soil makes Alaskan; wood difficult to obtain and when any large enterprise has been undertaken, as building railroads, the timber, for the most part, has been shipped from Puget Bound.The wild flowers {n this northern country, along the coast and back to ward the Yukon, delight with thelr beauty and fragrance.Far up, mear the Seal Islands, are Immense flelds ot yellow poppies, and in other sections | there are wild geranfums of a bluish\u2019 tint, yellow moocasin plants, saxifrage and bluebells.| | ;

reveal God to us besides the Bible; e EG.the book of nature, and the book of providence.We admit that nature reveals God to us.That the heavens declare the glory of God, and the firmament shows his handtwork, we donot for a mo ment deny.Ne pe ture is vocal with 5 Mn] theology.Nor would we think of contradicting the statement that God manifests himself through history and providence, Vic tor Hugo sald: \u201cWaterloo was God.\u201d By that he meant that God showed bis hand fn that great war and turned the stream of civilization into another channel.The history of all nations is abundantly replete with marked inter ferences of God.Promotion cometh peither from the east nor from the west.It 18 God who setteth up one nation, and putteth down another.The knowledge of God that comes io us from these sources, however, i8 sot sufficient to fully eatisfy the human heart.Nature tells us of God, but does not adequately describe him lo us.We might infer from the di- rine manifestations in history and providence that God is a great force 21 power, but euch a definition of God dy no means satisfies humanity.We need some other and deeper vision of God.We need to know something about his person, nature and attrk butes; his relations with his creatures; what things are pleasing and what dis pleasing to him; what are his ethical, : moral and spiritual standards.To these questions not nature, nor his tory, nor yet providence affords an answer.Nature may show the head and wisdom of God, and providence and history the band end power of God, but we need a revelation such ae we have in the Bible to reveal to us the heart and the grace of our God.Sometimes the Bible fs compared with other sacred books\u2014Bibles of other religions; the Koren, the Vedas, etc.There can be no real comparison.\u2018The Bible is not to be put on the same plane as these books, None of them claims for itself what the Bible claims for itself; nor did any one of their authors claim for himself what Jesus Christ, and the Inspired writers of the Bible claim for themselves.The Christian must be very careful in the matter of comparing his Bible with other sacred books.Buch comparison is attended with grave danger.There is practically no difference, so far as the disastrous effects of auch compari- sous are concerned, whether you drag the Bible down to the level of these other books, or lift these other books up to the level of the Bible.The 2ffect is the same; you rob the Bible of its unique character and authority.Let us be careful in this matter.The Bible is not only the book of God, 1t is also the book from God.At least this is the way in which it gives its own account of its arigin: \u201cAll Scripture is given by inspiration of God,\u201d\u2014that is to say, is \u201cGod breathed\u201d (2 Timothy 8:16).Again, in 2 Peter 1:20-21, we read: \u201cKnowing this first, that no prophecy of the Scripture is of any private interpreta: tion (or origin, for it seems clear that it is to the source rather than to the exposition of the Scripture that ref erence ls here made).For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man; but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.\u201d Here are some very clear and definite statements concerning the source of the Ecripture.It ie tple \u201cGod-breathed\u201d element that differentiates this book from all other writings.The Bible is quite often referred to nowadays ae splendid \u201cliterature.\u201d Well, the Bible is that, but it is more than that\u2014it is Scripture.Literature 18 the letter; Scripture is the letter imbreathed by the holy spirit.Just as in the creation of man we learn that man became a living soul when that frame of dust, as it lay on the ground, became inbreathed by the spirit of life from God.Man is dust inbreathed by Deity; and if you take the spirit of life from man, he returns to dust.So is tt with the Bible; it is the let ter, but it is the letter inbreathed by God's spirit that makes that letter Scripture.And when you rod the Bible of its inspiration you have nothing but.mere lite Bcripture, \u2018The meesage of the Bible is a retigi- ous message.Ite sim and purpose is to bring man, who has been estranged from God by reason of sin, back to the God from whom he has been estranged.The Scriptures, which are given b5 inspiration of God, are for the man of God, that he may be instructed in righteousness; mark you, in righteous: ness, pot in science, or art, or poetry, or history, important as those things are in themselves.left\u2014pou have no AN HONORED CANADIAN.The Recent Death of Lady Tupper lo a Loss to the Canadian People.A long\u2019 and happy life ended in the death of Lady Tupper, the wife of Sir Charles Tupper, whose wedding took place sixty-six years ago.Many Canadians will remember that in October, 1896, the golden wedding of Sir Charles and Lady Tupper was celebrated at Ottawa, when they received the hearty congratulations of frienda and admirers from all provinces of the Dominion.Speaking to a newspaper representative on that occasion, Bir Charles said: \u201cYes, it will be exactly fifty years to-morrow since Lady Tupper-and I were married.We were born within a mile of each other, near Amherst, in Cumberland County, Nova-Scotia, and knew each other from childhood days.My wife was a daughter of the Hon.Silas H.Herbert Morse, pro- thonotary of the Supreme Court of Nova Sootia, and her mother was Elizabeth Stewart, a sister of the late Hon.Alexander Stewart, C.B., Master of Rolls and judge of the Court of Admiralty.\u201cWe were married,\u201d continued Bir Charles, \u201cat my wife's residence by tha Rev.Canon Townsend.The marriage took place at her residence because the Anglican church was being rebuilt at the time.\u201d The diamond wedding of Sir Charles and Lady Tupper was celebrated ten years later.For the last five years Lady Tupper's health had been precarious and her death was not un expected.Lady Tupper became widely known and loved in the Motherland Jong ago, where her husband's activities in the interests of Canada brought them into contact with Court circles and with noted statesmen of both the great political parties, and, of course, their families.As far back as 1867, while in England on the oc caslon of the London Conference on Confederation, Lady Tupper had the honor of being presented to Her Majesty Queen Victoria at a special drawing room at which only representatives of fore countries or persons recently appointed to high office were presented.was again presented to Her Majesty in 1886.While Bir Charles had his official residence in London, as High Come missioner for Canada, from 1884 to 1896, Lady Tupper had many arduous and responsible social duties to fulfil is connection with his official position which sBe discharged with the grace, dignity and sweetness which charac terized her actions throughout her life.\u2014Saturday Night She Won Her Robes.Miss Melrose Sissons of Portage La Prairie has had since she was a child: a \u2018\u2018satiable\u2019\u2019 desire to grapple with legal problems.Bo, in due course, she hied forth to Winnipeg to the University of Manitoba, and ob from there 8 degree \u201cMagna cum lauda.\u201d Portla\u2019s robes were dra closer, but when she asked to be al lowed to study at the Blackstone fountain, she discovered that women could attend colleges and universis ties, take degrees and medals, bud they must not study the profession on which she had set her heart.The honorable benchers informed her that only persons were admitted to the study and practice of law, and that whereas the law was interpreted ao cording to English procedure which held that the word \u2018person\u2019 meant \u201cmale person,\u201d therefore, she being à woman and not & person could no study or practice law in Manitoba.Miss Sissons decided to go further west and find out her status there.In the meanwhile, the Hon.Hugb Armstrong, Provincial Treasurer, having heard of the reading of the bench- ers, gave notice of an amendment.Government and Opposition saw eye to eye \u2018with him upon this point, and thus was the cause won in Manitoba, \u2014Saturday Night.Gardening In Ontario.With the warmër- suns there are abundant signs of an increasing interest in gardening throughout the Province of Ontario.It is good to surround the homes of the people with beautiful, uplifting things, and a country without suc environment will not stand.Mere commercial endeavors, without thoughts of civic beauty, flower smothered home surroundings an everything that tends to bring the country into the town are sordi uninspiring.We shall be glad to see more small gardens, the gardens of those who must follow this hobby in thelr epare hours, in the large cities.This feas ture, which impresses everyone who visits the old homeland, will come in time into this country\u2014the fruit and vegetable plots
