Well call the attention, of the mothers and sisters to tho fact, that the Woman's Christian Temper. once Union meets every hfonday at three o'clock sharp, for one hour, at Mr». Holm's residence, pat. rick street. AR ladies are made welcome. We hold a monthly gospel meeting on tho last Monday of every mouth, except when otherwise advertised, to which Meeting. we invite the public generally As the Editor has kindly given us part of Ms space, for our work, we ask friends of the rause to Send Items of Interest on all moral questions of the day to any of our members. The Plebiscite. Ye Christian people, rally Around the faithful few Who strive. for Prohibition, With hearts so loyal and true, Why stand ye by so idle ? The Master's call obey; Look not to past or future, But work, oh, work to -day: This is no time to dally With a question now so groat, Let the watch word, then, be rally! Till we know our country's fate. Ye voters, 0 bo faithful, For the right now firmly stand, Till from this nurse so hateful Ye redeem our native land. For God, and home, and country, Let this your motto bo, Till before the gates of heaven Sounds the glad cry, "we are free." MRs. A. L, Wingham, Out. The most womanly women on earth are W. 0. T. U. women. Why ? Be, cause their wofnan's special sphere— the home. * * * At a recent meeting of ministers it was soberly suggested by one of thein that the husbands of wives of talent be paid sufficient salary, so that they could put extra help into the kitchen and let the wives devote their time Jikand talents to help their husbands. Rabbinical laws required every Jew to teach his son a trade. He that teacheth not his son a trade does the seine as if he taught him to be a thief. Is there not a hint here for Christian law -makers? Only 1 would add,teaeh our daughters also to do some one thing well. In both cases it is a moral safeguard. * * * 41 We hear it continually repeated in ese days that good men do not go to the caucuses. In our ,judgment, the real reason is, because good men do not enjoy going where there is no good women; good men remain at home with their families. When good wo- men are invited to take part in cau- cuses, then they will gladly go, and where they go the good men follow, And what is most of all, the glory of this nation is that good men and women hold the balance of power in this country; nay, more than Lhat,they firm a majority. 0 * * The Eug{list!

In many of the public schools chil- dren are so drilled that in case of an well asrivate individuals s evic alarm of lire they will file quickly and p l .l evidently steadily out at the tap of a bell, always presupposing that the teacher gets into a panic and is a thousand tines worse than nothing, for panic is more contagious and flied faster than any- thing else in the world. It might not be a bad idea to organize emergency brigades in our public schools, that email cowprehond something more than the dril'Iiug of children under suppositions fire -alarms.

Among the foliage plants are many tender species, such as vannas, etc„and 1 was a little curious :o kuow how it was proposed to protect them against the early frosts that are so destructive and exasperating to flor- ists. Mr. 'Thorpe informed me that he watched the temperature very closely, and when there was any fear of frost, he kept the water running through a hue spray nozzle all right, and thus prevented damage.

W. YOUNG nerve, presence of mind in time danger or ever have practice in what to do if any thing happens. In some households there aro sets of rales what to do in emergencies pasted in some scrap -book; hut this is never at hand when wanted, and even if it were the moral and physical conditiou of the metnbers of the family absolutely pre- cludes any understanding of the usual- ly vague and too technibal instruction contained therein. Every child should be taught what to do in case of fire. If necessary all the thotious should be gone through with. It should be told what is beat to do first, the reason for doing it and the results of cool and careful action as compared with the always disastrous consequen- ces of haste, confusion and terror. It is a out ious fact that children who have received any reasonable amount of training in this direction are much cooler and more composed than ad tilts, `—hether it is that the young mind un familiar with actual terrors of the sit- uation is left more free to act or whether the interested curiosity of the thud is stronger that its fears, might furnish ground for debate; certain is is that young persons and children al- though unspeakably distracted and unmanageable without training, are of much more value as assitants in times of the greatest peril than many who aro of mature years. Danger seems to be something that one must become educated into; naturally one fears nothing probably because the conse- quences have never been fully realized, It would be but a shell task to teach children, habits of steadiness and Pelf -control in times of danger and it might be the means of saving many lives and much vfluable property.

In the lungs they ati-et most striking changes, coin verting the impure venous into pure arterial blend, by which the whole frame is recruited. Cultivate Presence of Mind. One of the pleasant little idiosyn- crasies of humanity is the indulgence in speculations on what we would do if we had been there. No matter what the emergency, the danger of the re- spite, we 'are much given to feeling Meetly certain that we would have boon quite equal to the situation. and thateverything would have been a good deal better managed had wo been able to take a hand in the affair and assns our perishing fellowmen in their desperate strait.

Not every one is called upon, THE WORLD'S FAIR. GENERAL GOSSIP REGARDING SOME OF THE ONTARIO EXHtaITS AT THE GRHAT EXPOSITION, CHICAGO. Sept. 28—(Ontario Press Bureau.) The Ontario vegetable dis- play, since the burning of the cold storage warehouse, has boon rather scant, but suppli.a of fresh stuff are now ceining in very freely, and the court is the centre of attraction, es peoia.liy to the farmers from adjoining States, who are never done expressing their wonder at the marvellbus produc- tions of our country. Some 75 varie- ties of potatoes, all of excellent qual- ity, are displayed on plates ; also marigolds. beets, carrots, cabbages, tomatoos, and other field and garden products. The sensational features, however, are a mammoth squash weighing 486 pounds and a mammoth red pumpkin of 146 pounds, both grown by Mr. Wm. Warnock, of God- ertoh and a longwaye- f i the largestof the kind on the 'ground. Major Walker of Anoaster, who is in uharge of the exhibit, informed me that next week the pink of the vegetable pro, Valuable to Know'. CONSUMPTN may be more easily �O preventei than cured. The irrita- ting and harassing cough will be greatly relieved by the use of flagyard's Pectoral Balsam, that aures coughs, colds, bron- chitis, and all pulmonary troubles. The farmers who are feeding steers for the British market will tie well to note the following advice given by the Scottisll'Farmar to its readers: "Big bullocks do not now pay the farmers. This is the doctrine believed in by the judges of fat stock at Brechin, and they have good grounds for the faith that is in them. Two of the heaviest and biggest bullocks we ever remem- ber having seen were placed second to a pair of compact, closely coupled, well -fleshed crosses, and there is no doubt that the fashion is wholly in favor of this class. No gentleman now desires to seo the same old roast doing the honors of his table for seve- ral days. The farmer who feeds hie bullocks loses on both .sides. They consu,ne more food than the small ones, and in the s000ucl place they are far more difficult to .dispose of to the butcher. What pays the farmer is the niedium'sized, richly -fleshed animal.” A Battle for Blood Is what Hood's Sarsaparilla vigorously fights. and it is always victorious in ex- pelling all the foul taints and 5iving the vital fluid the quality and quantity of perfect health.

One day Ite happened to come across the dinner -pail of the office boy. Itis cariosity led him to take off the coyer.. A slice of hotne•made broad, twoo dough- nuts and a piece of apple-pie tempted the milliouaire's appetite, Ile became a boy again, and the dinner pail seemed to be one he carried sixty years ago. Just then the office boy came iu andsur- prised the old man eating the pie --he had finished the bread and the doughnuts, That's my dinner you aro eating! said the boy. Yes, sonny, I suspect it inay be; but it's a first rate one for all that. I've not eaten so good a one for sixty years. There, lie added, as he finished the p c, take that and go out and buy yourself a dinner; but yon won't got so good aone,and he handed the boy a five dollar bill. For days after, the old man kept refer- ring to the first-class dinner he had eaten from the boy's pail. Afflicted With Neuralgia for 30 Years. To the Proprietor of the Great South American Rheumatic Cure, DEAR Sin,—For over thirty years I was afflicted very much with Neuralgia: and Headache. Seeing your great SOUTH AIOSI1TCAN RHEUMATIC CUBE advertised 1 thought I would give it a trial --although I did not thick for a momeut it was going to do me any good after trying so many remedies without benefit. 1 obtained a bottle from Chisliolm's Drug Store iu this town, and I must say that I got great relief from the first few doses, and was so over. joyecl that I deterrniued to give it a good trial and continued taking it, taking iu all six bottles. I can truthfully say that I never felt so well since I was a girl, it has not only cured me of ueeralgia and bead• ache, but has also built up my system and I feel quite young again. I most cheer- fully give you this testimonial and consider you are the greatest benefactors to suffer- ing humanity. I am, Dear Sir, YoursThankfully, MARGARET BELL. Witnessed by J. H. Chisholm. Potato History. It has been proved beyond a doubt that at the time of the discovery of America the cultivation of the potato was practiced, with every appearance of ancient usage, in the temperate regions extending from Chile to New Grenada, at altitudes vary- ing with the latitude. The name of the discovaor of the potato is unknown, but Du Candolle sums up the history of its dis- covery as follows: The potato is wild in Chile in a form which is still seen in our cultivated plants; it is doubtful whether its natural home extends to Peru and New Grenada; its cultivation was diffused before the discovery of America, and was intro- duced in the latter half of the sixteenth century into that part of the United States known as Virginia and North Carolina,and the potato was imported into Europe be- tween 1580 and 1585, first by the Spaniards and afterwards by the English at the time of Raleigh's voyages to Virginia.
