According to the official bank state-
ment it appears that during February
the banks increased their note circula-
tion by $1,529.262. Deposits on de-
mand decreased by $317,928, and lav
ings depaeits by $1,779,992.
The total immigration into Canada
for the eleven months of the present
Bata' year, np to the end of February,
was 130,444; aa compared with 247,056
for the same period of 1907.08, a de-
crease of forty-seven per cent. The
immigration for the month of February
was 4,791, as compared with 6,164 for
February of last year, a deorease of
twenty-two per cent.
In our day the movement of American
farmers across the border to take up
wheat farms in the Canadian West
shows how well the value and signifi-
cance of the nortbern wheat belt are
appreciated by our neighbore, Maine,
New Hampshire and Vermont seek in
vain for settlers to till their abandoned
terms. The people who went from the
abandoned etetes to the American West
are moving north into the granary of
the empire.—St. John Telegraph.
Among the many valuable features of
the reoent convention of the Ontario
Good. Roads Association, the construc-
tion of culverts and bridgee was given
due consideration, The importance of
enfasient capacity for full -flood was
urged. It was evident, from the tenor
of addresses given by those prominent
in good roads work in different parts of
the Province, that, just es steel struc-
tures took the place of bridges made of
wood, so will cement take the place of
steel for bridges and of wood for oul-
verte.—,Farmers' Advocate.
MAITLAND PRESBYTERY.
The Preabytery of Maitland met at

There was a good attendance, and a
oonsiderable amount of business was
transacted.
Rev. Messrs. John Radford, W, A•
Bremner, D. B. McRae and 0. M.
Rutherford were appointed Oontmis-

Rev. John McFarlane resigned his
charge of the congregation of Pine
River and intimated his desire to retire
from the active duties of the ministry,
and be admitted to the benefits of the
Aged and Infirm Ministers' Fend.
When oommissioners had been heard,
and Mr, McFarlane stated his adherence
it was agreed on motion of Messrs.
MoNab and McRae, that his resigna-
tion be accepted to take effect on and
after the last Sabbath in October, and it
was agreed to appoint Messrs. Mao-
Lennan, McRae and Miller to draft a
minute re Mr. McFarlane and his work,
and submit the same to the Presbytery
at its next regular meeting for approval.
A unanimous call was laid on the
table by Rev, lir. McLennan from

It was agreed to approve the Interim
Act for the regulation of the Aged and

Mr. Tait reported for the Church Life
and Work Committee, and proposed the
following recommendations: -1. That
ministers be recommended to make
these matters the subject of discourse at
some publio service of the church; 2.
That ministers be recommended to
preaoh at least twioe a year special ser
mons on the duties of the Home, or on
some aspect of Home life; 3. That par-
ents be urged to do all that they can to
render the work of the Sabbath Sohool
as effeotive as possible, as an ally of the
home; 4 That our members be recom-
mended to nee their infiaenoe for the
abolition of the pnblio bar; 5. That of-

The Liberal party of Alberta Prov-
ince, under the leadership of Hon. A.
0, Rutherford, won a aweeping viotory
as the polis on Monday, when the eleo-
tors gave most hearty endorsation of
the Government's radical programme
of railway building under Provincial
guarantees of bonds, the acquisition of
the telephone system, the organization
of a complete educational department
and the founding of a Provincial Uni-
versity. Ina House of forty-one mem-
bers there will not be more than four
Conservatives. Duncan Marshall, a
former well-known Ontario Liberal, was
elected as member for Olds.
Mr. Philip Jamieson, the well known
clothier of Toronto, who died a few
weeks ago, leaves an estate probated at
$3$5,611.25. This is a lot of money for
a man who starts with nothing to make
in less than a quarter of a century. The
sucoaeeion duties, which go to the Pro-
vince, amonnt to $19,276. It is said Mr.
Jamieson was the first business man in

A MEDICINE.
FOR THE SPRING
Da Not Dose With Purgatives A
Tonic is All You Need.
Not exactly sick —but not feeling
quite well, That's the way most people
feel in the spring. Easily tired, ap
petite tlokle, sometimes headaches and a
tetanal; of depression. Perhaps pimples
or eruptions may appear on the akin, or
there may be twinges of rhen-
matdam or neuralgia, .Any of them
indicate that the blood is out of order;
that the indoor life of winter bas left its
mark upon you and may easily develop
into more serious trouble, Don't dose
yourself with purgatives, as many p=o•
ole foolishly do, in the hope that y
put your blood right, Pnrgatly

0. Ayer, Wood Brook, N. S., says:—
"I cannot speak too highly in favor of
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. I was weak
and run down and quite unable to work.
I often had headaohes, and my appetite
was poor. I began taking Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills and in a short time there was
a marked improvement, and to -day I
am` in better health than I have been for,
years."
Sold by all medicine dealers or by
mail at 50 cents a box or' six boxes for
$2.60 from The Dr. Williams' Medicine
Co., Brookville, Ont.
ogy in Halifax College.
It was agreed to ask grants from the
Augmentation Fiend at the rate of $275
for Pine River, and $76 for the North
Kinloss charge.
Messrs. Tait, Bremner, Radford and
A. H. McKagae, elder, were appointed
a commission with Presbyterial powers
to decide as to whether services should
be continued at Enniskillen.
On oonsideration as to whence the
expenses should come of these members
of Presbytery who are required to take
special part in induction services it was
agreed that according to the common
practice of the church the congregations
concerned should be required to pay the
necessary expenses of all such,

Christ those who are still out of the way.
The report with its recommendations
was adopted.
Mr. McNab moved the following
resolution, which was aecended by Mr.
Dnnoen, and agreed,namely, that where-
as the liquor traffic is an admitted source
of social, moral and material injury to
our peop'e, and whereas, in many muni•
oipalities there is a majority of electors
desirous of prohibiting the sale of liquor
by retail by the Looal Option method
but are hindered by the unfair, and
undemooratie requirement which
reckons forty votes oast on .008 side as
being equal to sixty cast on the other,
and whereas this requirement has al-
ready bean abundantly shown to be nn-
neoeaeary in order to the permanenoy
of the Local Option by-law, therefore
we humbly and earueetiy beseech the
honorable, the Legislative Assembly 10
so amend the law that as formerly a by-
law
ylaw prohibiting the retail sale of liquor,
shall become law if it is approved by a
majority of the municipal eleoters vet-
ing thereon. It was farther agreed that
copies of this resolution be forwarded
t0 the Premier, the Prdvinelal Secretary,
the leader of the Opposition and the
Secretary of the Lord's Day Alliance.
On motion of Mr. Mo$erroli, second-
ed by Mr. Demean, it was agreed to
nominate Rev. Dr. Pidgeon, of West
Totonto, as Ptofeseor of Practical
AMUSING ADVERTISEMENTS.
Ia their efforts to make reading
notices as brief ma possible, advertisers
sometimes fa11 into highly amusing
errors of composition. A London per-
iodical recently offered a prize for the
best collection of advertisements of
this sort. Here is one list that was
sent in:

the reports of a 'very real scaroity of

are not in good marketable oonditioa,
