The senate a Queen's Uuiversity
have discussee a reeolution to re-
move the advantage which Greek has
on art e curriculum over other sub -
i jects. Some years ago, in order to
,eneourage the study of Greek, it wes
provided that by taking up that sub.
jet arts stadents would be absolved
from the necessity of taking eorne
• other subjects, one of which was
mathematics. Supporters of the reso-
lution for a change argue that no
student should leave college without
having been obliged to give some cf
Ihis time to the study of so impor-
tant and so practical a subject as
tionliematics. On the other hand op.
peneitts of the resolution contend that
the etudy of G'reelt is being neglected,

BODY COVERED WITH ECZEMA
VET ZAM-SUK CURED DIM
Mr. A. M. Brooks, of Wellington $t.,
Steelton, says :
" Ten months ago I contracted
eczema, which at fh•st appealed on my
neck, later spreadiug to my chest and
body. The doctor thought this was
caused by the irritation of my shirt
collar and the poison and steam from
the pulp, as I was then employed at
the Pulp Mill. I began doctoring, but
instead of the disease being checked
it showed signs of becoming worse;
and my neck, chest, and my whole
body was soon in a frightful condi-
tion. The skin actually peeled off,
leaving the flesh raw.
"1 suffered cruelly froni the ter-
rible itching and soreness, and was
corapletely confined to the house. Not
seeing or feeling any improvement, I
next resorted to the ordinary 'salves
and ointments recommended for skin
diseases, but although I gave each pre-
paration a fair trial, none seemed
powerful enough to bring about a cure
until I began using Zam-Buk.
"From the first application of Zarn-
Buk I had some relief, and as I per-
severed with its use daily the sore-
ness was by degrees drawn out and.
the intense itching and aching com-
pletely vanished. Scabs or settles
formed over the raw flesh, but Zane-
13uk soon cleared away all these, and
nithougle the cure was naturally
.gradual, it was complete,"
If you suffer from any skin disease
don't make the above mistake, and try
all sorts of things before Zam-Buk.
Get Zam-Buk first I Eczema, ulcers,
abscesses, poisoned wounds, cuts, cold
sores, scalp sores, face eruptions,
chaps, red, rough patches -all are
healed and cured by Zam-Buk. Best

a Ittysterious Way." Many of thes
were written, under peculiarly dram(
tie circumstances, as W S particularly
the case with those by Cowper and
John Henry Newman,
But, wide as have been their use
.and their application among Chris-
tiana of all .creeds and sects, there is
one hymn that overshadows all others,
whether we consider its -widespread
PenUlarity or its wonderful •evange
listic power. This hyran is "The
Ninety and Nine," bythe late Ira D.
Sanker. long the musical associate of
Dwight L. Moody. These two men to-
gether were the greatest soul winners
ever known, and the success of their
united. work was undoubtedly largelY
traceable to Kr. Sankey's song e in
general and to "The Ninety and Nine"
lb particular. • Its unique origin has
often b -en described, but will bear
ref. etition:
"When leaving Glasgow for Edin-
burgh wit:. Mr. 1VItiodY, Mr, Sankey
bought a penny religious paper.
Glancing over it as they rode on the
curs, he eye fell upon a few verses
ili the corner of the page. One day
they had an unusually impressive
reeetine in Edinburgh, • in which Dr.
Boiler had spoken on 'The Good
Ste Octet.' At the close of the ad.
dress Mr. Moody • beckoned to his
partner to sing something appropriate.
"At first he could think of nothing
but the Twenty-third Psalm, but
that he had sung so often. His Eke-
Otid thought was to sing the verses
he had found in the paper, but how
could it be done when he had no tune
for them? Then a thought came -
to sing the verses lie had found in
the paper anyway. He put the verses
before him, touched the keys ofthe
organ and sang, not knowing whele.
he 'was going to come out. He fin-
iebed the first, verse. amid Prorouni
silence. Re took a long breath ;tnil
ixondered if he could sing the second
the sante way. .11e tried it and sne-
ceecled. Alter that it was easy to sing
it. When he finished the hymn the
meeting was.all broken down -thrones
were. (Tying and ministers were soh.
hing t1 1 around hira."
Hundreds were converted thee and
then, while in subsequent years (111-
('1 thoueands of meals were gatli ired
in through the singing of "The l'Zincty
and Nine."
Clearly the song was the result of
a sudden • inspiration SO *far • as -its
muaical setting. was concerned, and
it may be doubted if there eves ever
-a similar case of . spontaneous and
subsequently successful eomposition..
"The Ninety and Nine' literally
sang its way around the world. The
simple paraphrase of the Scripture
•parable appeals to "all sorts • and
conditions of men," • and the tvorld'S

Toronto has happily escaped what,

entire Dominion, ere due to the On-

znalutenance. And this result has
not been accomplished without some:
trouble, It has been more than once
said that Toronto never showed
touch enthusiasm over its old land-
marks. It is true that it does not,
so far us the English regime is eon-
eerned, possess very much that is
really old to conserve. But it pos-
sesses enough to inspiee respect and
provoke interest,
. Compared with some cities Toronto
may be regarded as a place of some
antiquity, There is, for example, a
heti° of age, in a relative sense,
around the spot known for years as
the "Ohl Fort," numed originally
"Fort York." But it is, after all,
only one hundred and sixty years
since the French were extending
their tradino posts westerly and
pinying the part of "pioneers of na-
tions yet tobe and treading the for -
este where the "Iturtian soa" of the
poet's fancy is even now rolling.
And. then only, when Xing George
III, bee -set for ton years on the •
throne of Great I3ritein, was it that
g. de In GaIissoniere, acting for M.
de 14 Jonquiere, ordered a steditade

believes, in scattering sunshine und

but the businees pathway. Previous -
to if300, the year in which the pen-

time been occupying the position of
collector of customs at Morrisburg.
Since then he has eontintiouely repre-
sented Dundee,. Sir bums Whitney's
beoved constitueecy, in the Federal

But it wits during Mr. Broder's

He enquired very eiosely as to the
former place of residence of the tea-

why it was coming to Canatle, the
likely iocation of its new home in the
hack concessions, and all the rest,
until the owner of the fowl thougbe
matters were being pretty thoroughly
