NOTES AND COMMENTS
&ties Emma Magoon Post, though
blind, suweeesrully manages the tele-
phone exchange it North English, Iowa.
The exchange serves over 300 snbscrib•
ers, AU of the bell signals have been
made to differ in tone, and she is able
to distinguish each of the forty-five bells
by its peonliar tone and the voices of
men. women and children whom the
serves.
Oace again has Premier McBride
swept British Colombia, and his victor,'
may be styled a triumphant one. In
Vancouver and Victoria the straight
tickets were elected. T1r. John Oliver,
the Liberal leader, has been defeated in
beth Delta and Victoria, and Mr. Stew-
art. Henderson has fallen in Yale before
the Premier, who aleo ran in that oon-
atituenoy.
The following good edition is from an
exchange: -"Why should Christmas be
mutilated to 'Xmas' any more than
Christine to 'Klan' or Oh_istianity to
'Xianity'? Yet there are Iarge nnmbers
of people who will do it during the next
few weeks. There is nothing to be said
in its favor except brevity and this is
secured at the expense of reverence.

In fifteen years the annual value of
Ontario's field crops has been advanced
from $102,000,000 to $156,000,000, the
annual value of live stook marketed and
slaughtered from $34,000,000 to $63,000,-
000, and the valve of the live stock left
on the farm from $116,000,000 to $186,-
000,000. This has been accomplished in
face of the exodus to the cities and to
the West, and in spite of the shortage
of agricultural laborers. No account is
here taken of the growing output of our
orchards and daisies. These splendid
results have been attained with a gospel
which au yet has. reached effectively
only a comparatively small minority of 1
oar farmsre. It is only reasonable to
expect that, as the work is extended to
ever -widening circles, the rural Ontario
may be greatly augmented, in which
growing benefits the urban communities
cannot help but share. --Toronto News.

THE POSTAL- SERVICE
Recently we heard a gentleman com-
plaining about the fine new post of ee
Kincardine had. The complainer seem-
ed to think that it was an extravagance
on the part of the Liberal government.
We would point out that there were
very few such complaints made while
the Conservatives were in power, for
they didn't seem to have the proper idea
of conducting that branch of the govern-
ment snooessfully. Canada's pastmast-
er•geueral year after year had to report
a deficit and that deficit averaged $800 -
000 per annum as long as the Conserva-
tives were in power. In 1896 the net
revenne of the department was $1,971,-
093 and the expenditure $3,752,805, Sir
Velum Blalock was the first postmast-
er general ander the Lanrieradminietra-
tion and he began to look into the causes
of the deficit. Ia the third yearot his ad-
ministration the deficit was almost
wiped oat, but then came the reduction
of Canadian and imperial letter poetaee
from three to two cents. This had been
rejeoted by the Conservative govern-
ment as a fiaanoiel imp aeibility, How-
ever Sir Wm. Unlock was a business
man and the metiirods he adopted showed
the soundness of his judgment as the
following table will show.

1909 809,637.53
These figures are given in the report
of Postmaster General Lemieux, for the
year ending Maroh 31st, just issued.
During the year poet ofiioes increased
in number 656, postal note offices' 680,
money order offices 196, and savings
bank offices 18. Besides these inereases
2,034 miles were added to the extent of
the system over which mails are carried
by railway while the number of miles
whtoh mails have been carried by rail-
way and water routes and ordinary land
routes is greater by 1.312,073 miles than
for
the previous year. The estimated
increase in the number of lettere and
postcards sent during the year is 19,805,-
000 or 4 per cent more than in 1908.
This growth has entailed an increase
of $586456 66 in expenditure as compar.
ed with 1908, but in spite of tide and the
faet that in August of Iast year the rate
on drop letters in cities was reduced on
half, there was a surplus trent the oper.

The iron plate of the Mason and.
Risch piano is designed to give the
greatest strength and rigidity
WE have reduced the
construction of
the iron plate in the
Mason and Risch piano
to an exact science. We
have secured a design
which distributes the
great strain of the strings
equally over the plate.
No part is given a great-
er strain than another,
and each section is
braced to hold the strain perfectly rigid.
The Mason and Risch iron plate is cast in math-
ematically accurate moulds from finest quality iron.
Mason and Risch
,The piano with a soul
We have secured the greatest strength and per-
fect rigidity in our iron plate, and by our method of
placing it in the case there is absolutely no vibration
from it to conflict with the pure, resonant, singing
tone of the instrument.
Every one of i;he exclusive features of the
Mason and Risch piano have been tested
by thirty-two years of actual use and found
perfect. We know you would be interested lulISCR

Paul on the Grace of Giving. II Cor.
viii:l-15.
Golden Text -Remember the words
of the Lord Jesus, how he said, it is
more blessed to give than to receive.
Acts xx:35.
Are these words in the Golden
Text quoted from Jesus, hyper-
bolical, that is, a rhetorical over-
statement, or is it literally true,
that it is more blessed to give than
to receive, and if so, why? (This
question must be answered in writ-
ing by members of the club )
Verses 1 6 -Is it according to ani-
mal nature, or to average human nee
tura, to give to othere ontaide of kith
and king
Is giving Iiberaily, intelligently and
systematically, to religion and charity,
always a "grace," that is, an inellnation
Divinely imparted?
What is the relation between giving
and loving?
If we are in need or "affliotion" our-
selves, will the grace of giving Mill
operate in us, if our hearts are right?
May' "deep poverty," great "joy" and
ri0h "liberality" be in the same life,
and it each a combination menial or
euperiiatural?
Tbere was great poverty and suf-
fering arnong the Chrietiatis at Jeru-
salem, and the liberality of the poor
churches at 4lacedonte to relieve their
need is what Paul here refers to; eono
tract the evil at Jerusalem, with the
resultant good grace of giving developed
at Macedonia, end say which is the
greater; that is, did the result do as-
much
smuch good, ar exceed the evil dorso by
the cause? ,

the grace of giving; why is there no
work more noble, or duty more im-
perative, than for ministers and teachers
to teach the people the duty and joy of
giving?
Verses 7, 8 -Paul apparently as-
sumes that a person may abound "in
faith and utterance, and knowledge, *
* * * and in * * * * love," and not
abound in the grace of giving; but is he
right, for how can enoh a thing be
possible?
Paul states that he did not nrge the j
grace of giving by "commandment"
is it therefore any less the duty, and
privilege of every Christian, rich and
poor, to abound in this grace?
Verse 9 -What should be the supreme
motive, and what is the greatest induce-
ment to give liberally?
What is the chief grape in the re-
splendent character of Jesus?
Did the giving of Jeans of himself,
and all he had for as, imply permanent
poverty for him, or was it the surest
way to all that great wealth is supposed
to stand for?
Why does giving of all kinds finally
result In getting more of that whioh we
give, than would be possible if we keep
it? (think of money, love, knowledge,
experience, en0ouragement, eto.)
Verses 10, II ---What is the differ-
ence in promising a enbsoription to
religion or benevolence and not paying
it, and not paying your grocer or baker?
Verses 12 14 -What is the proportion
of one income whioh the Bible de-
mands of ns, as a minimum?
What are some of the many advant-
ages of the tithing system?
Verse 15 -What reason Is there to
believe that if we give systematically to
God's cause that we ourselves shall
never lack?

' • ' Coleridge's frnagretatiott.- -- '"'
From s early youth Coleridge B
Ws
In a world of books and dreams, yet
lits favorite walk seems to have boss
the Strand, the last place in the world'
for a poet to lose himself in reverie„,
As he strolled down the street he in,
agined himself swimming the Hello -
pont, the feat of which other poetl4
had written and which the poet Byrore
was to accomplish later. Once Whilst
the mind of Coleridge was thus fart
from the busy Strand be absently;'
thrust iris hands before bite in the
manner of one swlmming. Suddenly;
one band came in contact with a gen-'
Newell's pocket.
The gentleman. thinking to capture
a thief, seized the band and exclaimed:
"What: So young and so wicked!"
He accused the poor, poetic boy of at;
attempt at pocket picking.
With some fright and a few team
the boy explained. and we can Imag-
ine that words did not fail him villa
was to become the most brilliant talk-
er
acker of his age. The gentleman was de-
lighted with. Coleridge's imagination!,
which could turn the Strand into the
Hellespont. The intelligence of the
young Leander made the stranger In-
quire into Coleridge's tastes, and when
he found the boy liked books he open-
ed for hint a subscription at the circa.

"It soots me."
"Do you think Boston is a great

"It has bean."
"Did you find Philadelphia the place

"Not for me. Everybody else snored
so loud I couldn't."
"Is Washington a good place to live
in?"
"Capital."
^1iow did you find Chicago'?"
"Didn't have to. It was there when
I arrived,"
"How were the mountains back of
Denver?"
"Rocky."
"How did they treat you in New

"All the time."
"Well, I'm glad to see you're back."
"How does it look?"
"How does what look?"
"My back. I've never seen it."

An Organ Recital.
A dozen or more women bad Bath-
ed at it bome on Walnut street to at.
tend a business meeting of a society
to which they belonged. Before they
commenced to talk business one of the
women had to tell everybody about
her recovery from a recent operation
for appendicitis. After she got through
It reminded another of an operation
she bad gone through a few years ago
for the same thing. and it took some
time to tell about it. That reminded
a third of an operation she had once
gone through. and when she finished
telling it another of the visitors start-
ed
tarted to tell her experience on the oper-
ating table.
At this moment a quiet tithe wom-
an in one corner of the room arose to
go.
"I thought," she explained to her,
hostess. "that this was to have been it
business meeting, but It seems to bean

The Key of Death.
The "key of death" is apparently i1
Iarge key which is shown among the
weapons at the arsenal at Venice. It
was invented by Tibaldo, who, disap-
pointed in love, designed this instra-
ment for the destruction of his rival.
The key is so constructed that the
handle may be turned around, reveal-
ing a small spring, which being press.
ed a very fine needle is driven with
considerable'foroe from the other end.
This needle is so very fine that tithe
flesh closes over the wound immediate-
ly, leaving no mark, but the death of
the victim is almost instantaneous.
