Mrs. Perrie, ,'president of the Presbyterian Auxiliary, presiding, assisted in the opening exercises by Mrs. Helm and Miss Pelton. Mrs. Perrie then gave a very interesting address of welcome to the sister societies, and spoke of woman's responsibilities, showingat thwe may prove a stumbling block in the way of Christianity if we do not show, by our walk and conversation, that we have been with Jesus. Minutes of last meeting were read and adopted, after which a duet was very nicely rendered by Mrs. Smith and Mrs. Ireland. The Secretary of the Congregational society then gave a report of the work accomplished by them during the year. As their work is both Home and Foreign, $50 had been sent to the latter and $38 to the former, making a total of 1188. Of this amount $31 had been collected by mite -boxes. The Society is prospering and has a membership of twenty. Mrs. A.

A very pretty solo, "Sometime W9'11: Understand," was then given by Miss- McLean, which was tendered in a very pleasing manner. Mrs. Towler then gave an account of the work of the Methodist society. Contributions for the year amounted to $50 ; membership twenty-eight, and closed by hoping they will be more prosperous in the coming year. Mee.

Speaking from over twenty years' experience, I can sum up in a very few words some of the results of `fndiscrimir,ate use of glasses. In the case of odd eyes—gradual weakening of the good eye and mak ing it much more susceptible to disease, such as glaucoma, iritis, ete. In cases of astigmatism. un. suitable glasses will cause neuralgia pains in the eyes, frontal headache, nausea, paralysis of the accommodation, resulting in permanently impaired vision which no skill cult restore. The time will come, and I hope soon, when sight•testing* opticians will be planed on the sawn footing as dentists and chemists, and have to pass an examination before being allowed to practice.
