A circular has been this week Issued from the Farmers' Institute Branch of the Ontario Department of Agriculture. No doubt many of our farmers' wives .Have received it. The first lines mark our the development that has been made during the last few years in agricultural methods. The good work done by Farmers' Institutes and Travelling Dairies, Dairymen's Associations and Ontario Agricultural College is also men. - toned. While all this is true the mat- ron of to -day conducts her household affairs in much. the same way as her grandmother of fifty years ago. It is quite true that, "even among the well- to-do, those who owe no man a cent aucl have comfortable bank accounts, are to be found badly planned and poorly equipped dwellings." The circular claims, and quite reasonably, that -Women's Institutes can do for the homes what Farmers' Institutes have done for the farms. The government will grant them $1.0 to assist in holding meetings, and the Department of Agriculture will furnish interesting literature. The cir- cular states the object of Women's In- stitutes to be the dissemination of know- ledge relating to domestic economy, in- cluding household architecture, with special attention to home sanitation: a better understanding of the economic and hygenic value of foods, clothing and fuel, and a more scientific care and training of children with a view to rais- ing the general standard of the health and morals of our people. We are thor- oughly in sympathy with the object. Mlle result of the formation of such in- stitutes will be better butter, better gardens, better and more beautiful homes, and eventually better people. HOW THIN YOU LOOH2 Do you like to hear it?

IIANee MOMS THE St'I'l?ERElt COULD Not LIE IN BED, AND IIID I.EO WAS FRE- QUENTLY SWOI.LI.N TO TWICE ITS NAT- URAL P.Pen. From the Journal St. Catharines. Mr. John T. Benson, stationary engin- eer at the Ridley College, St. Catharines, is known by most of the residents of the city. For years Mr. Beason suffered acute agony from sciatica, and notwith- standing numerous forms of treatment, fennel little or no relief, until he began the use of Dr. Williams' Piuk Pills. These pills speedily restored his health, as they have done that of thousands of others who have given them a fair trial. To the reporter who interviewed. him Mr, Benson .;aid:—"I certainly owe a debt of gratitude to Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, for they have released me from a form of torture that had afflicted mo al- most continuously for twenty years. The pain began first in my back, then shifted to my hip, and thence down my leg. It became so severe that the very marrow in my bones was being scalded, and at times I could scarcely repress ey- ing aloud from the agony I endured. I tried all sorts of liniments and lotions, but got no relief. I doctored with sever- al physicians, even going to Buffalo for treatmeut by a specialist there,but in no case did I ever receive more than temp- orary relief. It may be easily imagined that the pain I endured told upon me in other ways and I became almost a physic- al wreck. At times ray right leg would swell to nearly twice its normal size. Then the pain and swelling would shift to my left leg, and the agony was sou thing awful. I suppose that duri the period I was afflicted I have hu 'cds of times laid on my back ou the ` oor with my foot aucl leg elevated o a chair in order to obtain slight eas "rom the pain I endured. The ' use any legs looked a twisted and tied and sinews in gh they had been nets. The trouble went on in this way until finallynothing but opiates would deaden the pain. A few years ago I read of a cure iu a sim- ilar case through the use of Dr. Will- iams' Pink Pills and decided to try them. For some time after I began their use, I could not see that they wore helping me, but I decided that I would give them a fair trial. By the time I haduseda half dozen boxes, there was a decided im- provement in my case and I continued the use of the pills until I had taken twelve boxes, when I felt my cure was complete. Several years have since pas- sed and I have had no return of the trouble, so that I feel safe in'sayiug that the cure has been permanent. I inay also add that my wife has used the pills for indigestion, headaches and dizziness, and has found great benefit from them. Words cannot express the great benefit Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have been to me, and I hope similar suf- ferers will profit by my experience." Dr. Williams' Pink Pill's cure by go- ing to the root of the disease. They re- new and build up the blood,and strength- en the nerves, thus driving disease from the system.

Or (10,'S ho always hold tho stuuo views as eapremal by correspondents. respondents. To the Editor of the Timis. DEAIt ;;Ill, --I was somewhat surprised to notice in your report pf the council's proceedings, that objection had been raised by a certain Councillor til the good work the W. 0. T. U. lhavo been trying to do in Winghaan. What surprised me more was that one who apparently' and by self -advertisement has been nourish- ed on Prohibition pap should bo the first to object. Although a Conservative. my- self,' 'mow of no one in this coustitnancy, who through his (Vidal positioe and consistent conduct as a representative of total abstainoneo has a better richt to preside at a W, 0. T, U. or Temperance meeting, than Dr. Macdonald. As I was present at the meeting referred to my- self, and aur utterly and absolutely op- posed to Dr, SZacdouale politically, and prohibition also, I wish only to give the W. 0. T. U. And the doctor justice and fair play. Nothing was said by Dr. Macdonald politically, only in so far as the political situation illustrated the ab- solute impossibility of either party pass- ing prohibitory legislation at the present timo. His address, to my mind, instead of being political in character savored more of an arraignment of the W. C. T. U. and Temperance agitators generally for expecting prohibition until Temper- ance sentiment was crystallised and thereby able to become a paramount force politically, As I understand poli- tical meetings have been held, by either party, in our town hall free of charge, and are now held at the same fee already charged the W. C. T. U., if I were the officers of that organization I would allow the meeting to pass as a political one to satisfy this worthy Councillor and devote the surplus funds to the support of the widowed mother of poor Ed. Sherman, who I believe is suffering from an incurable. nervous affection, and whom this -same worthy Councillor wants brought hone at once as he is probably afraid poor Ed. may get too many com- forts in the hospital, Public hospitals do not retain. patients after they are cured as this Councillor insinuates. They are not even self-sustaining from the revenue derived from patients, but in order to be able to run as charitable institutions receive large government and municipal grants. The mere pitance of 12.50 a week does not begin to recom- pence or re-imburse such an institution for the nursing, medicines, food and medical attendance (which last' in case of all such patients in hospital practice is supplied gratuitously) of ward pat- ients, ande hospital authorities areonly too glad to dismiss such cases aeSoon as possible, but as a rule, are too h,umaue to do so until all, has been done fceetleein that is possible. This Councillor seerii- ingly prefers to have Ed. Sherman brought home where he cannot possibly receive the nursing and comforts which he receives there, and where the expense instead of being evenly distributed over the ratepayers of the town would have to be borne by some one or two indivi- duals. Such play to the grand stand makes sensible men sick. Consistency thou art a jewel. • PRO BONG PUCLICO. CHURCH NOTES. Pastor Freed is visiting in Brantford. Rey. D.
