The following is the result of the uniform promotion examinations held iu the Public) School at the end of the winter terra, The gaetitians were pre- pared by the County Inspeotors and the answer$ were read and valued by the members of the staff. The results are quite satisfactory, all who wrote having passed. Parents are requested to send mile on the opening day of school, so that the work in the several olaeses may be taken up at once. A.

From "South Huron comes disquieting news of Conservative troubles, and there is -a well-defined rumor that Mr. T. J Carling will run as an independent ROW, Mr• H. A. Ellber, the present eittina Tory member. The Conservative; of South - Bruce held a convention at Formosa on Mon- day when Dr. R. E. C1apn, the present member f or the Legislature, was again nominated. Mr. R E. Truax, of Wiilk- erton, is the Liberal candidate. Another familiar figure in Canadian political life has been removed by the death of Sir Adolphe Caron, former Minister of Militia and Postmaster - General of Canada, wh'oh manned at Montreal on Monday afternoon. A return tabled at Ottawa, on Tees day, shows that the government has received since 1896 from sales o: land in Manitoba $1,075,451 in sash and $209,- 475 in scrip; in Alberta, $1,455,715 in cash and $237,086 in sorip; in Sasket- ohewan, $1,743.753 in cash, and $158,302 in scrip. The annual report of the inspector of prisons, Dr. Bruce Smith, shows that the ocst of maintaining the prisons of Ontario in 1907, was $164,852, an in- crease of $6,678 over 1906. The cat of maintaining county jails increased last year from 22 cents a day to 27 cents, while the number of persons committed were 11804, an increase of 994 compared with 1906 There were 23 commitments for murder, a decrease of one, and 23 for manslaughter, an inorease of six; 258 insane persons were committed to jail, a decrease during the year of 31. The number of prisoners sentenced to peni- tentiary'was 7,059, an increase of 663. If it were necessary to give New Ont- ario four additional members, there should have been a reduction in the re- presentation in planes in Old Ontario that have been steadily decreasing in population. But Premier Whitney does not seem to be looking towards reduced representation, for he has intimated that after the next census, Hamilton, Brantford, and other growing cities will have a large representation. It is a wonder the farmers have not been agita- tiug in the associations for a reduction in representation. Canada has only a population of a little over six million people, and it is taking altogether too many legislators to tinker with existing laws and make new ones.—Chesley Enterprise. O Irwin. T.

If he consults his own in. tercets he will pick on June, or the earliest date gosaibi°. He has, unfor- tunately for himself, got tangled up in a public power soheme that will throw him in time. Peopleare learning that the whole Beck power policy is a rotten proposition; it -has been dragging along and seems to be about as little Itkely to get into actual operation in the municip- alities as ever it did. The planes that have been counting on the scheme to do great things for them are going to be very sore against Mr. Beek and Mr. Whitney will be wise to bring on the elections before an attempt is made to put the power scheme to the test of actual praotice.—Listowel Banner. • 737 726 720 710 692 690 673 667 646 627 626 622 621 620 608 008 605 598 596 593 58.1 579 577 574 574 571 R.

He gives the impression that his hold on the public business whish passes through the Legislative Assembly is an extremely slight one. He gives, no doubt, a good deal of attention to matters of a strictly party character, but in thtso the general pntilic take com- paratively littlo interest, while they take a great deal in some of the larger pro. blems of the day. It is a defect in lxIr. Whitney, which may easily b^Come a fatality, that he is an intense partisan in most of the matters with which he has oflioially to deal. Mr. McKay, on the other hand, is a persistent, rapid worker. His ability is exceptional, his knowledge of the law is usefully extensive; ani his apteeseii n oomprehening and utilizing suggestions from all quarters is quite phenomenal. The leader of the Oppositiou is proudly a Liberal, but he has a decided advantage over the Premier in his use of parlia- mentary courtesy, and his praotioe' of self-control, The native ability of Mr. McKay is apparently easily first in the Legislative assembly. There is in it no better law- yer, and he has not his equal in the readi- ness which he displayer in focusing his` legal bearing and aptitude.on the point he happens to be dealing with. He is a rapid draftsman when a resolution is to be framed, or a statutory enactment to be put into shape. His memory is ex• oeptionally good, so that he is able to oheok others for inaccuracies, and to strongly entrenoh himself in his own positions. By such personal gnalifioa• tions he is acquiring a strong hold on both his associates in the House and his party outside of it. St. Andrew's Manse,. Cardigan, P. E.

In sheer des- peration he had asked his wife to get him Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, They soon began to help him. His appetite and strength began to improve, and to the astonishment of his family and friends he rapidly regained his health. Now, though the burden of well nigh four score years 13 upon him. he is able to do a fair day's work, and is in the enjoyment of good health, even the, asthma has ceased to trouble him a n former years, Mr. Olding himself as w neighbors and the writer o confidently believe th from the very jaws of ly' •4o" mirac, one --i blessing of G, to t tinnous nee o Dr abundant evidence to confirm their opinion.

He had been confined to bis bed for months and was reduced to a. skeleton. Though evidently glad to see me, he oonversed with the greatest diffioulty, and seemed to realize that it was the beginning of the end. He was daily growing weak- er; his feet were swollen to -twine their natural size, and the o old hand of death was upon his brow. "It's no use," he said feebly, "the doctor's medicine is not helping me and I am going down rapidly," I prayed with him as for a mran soon to pass into eternity, and when I took his hand in the last time I expected to see him was it n the flesh. Three years later while en another visit to my mother's, Michael Olding was seemingly in better health than I had ever , seen him, for as I said, he 1 REV.

I cannot say too much in praise of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and I take every opportunity I can to re- commend them to friends who are ailing."

Thus far no more than nine of the men have quit work. The policy of employing prisoners on farms will be adopted in Ontario on a comprehensive scale. Between the oramping, physical and r>oral, of en- foroed factory work and the broadening regenerative inflaenoo of the open air there is a striking contrast, which shows in the condition and attitude of the prisoners.
