Report of the Medical Officers: In submitting the report of the Phy­ sician of the County Home for. the past year, I have the honor to say that the general health of the in­ mates have been good. During the winter months owing to being hous­ ed up in hot rooms many contract colds which do not prevail when warm weather arrives. The death rate is slightly high­ er but if taken with last year is a good average. There were fourteen deaths, the average being 32 years. Cause were: Five apoplexy, three cancer, two' pneumonia, - one spinal disease and three rheumatic heart. One case of fracture of the hip which will soon be able to walk again. The heating, food and clean­ liness are excellent.

AN EFFECTIVE SAMPLE ■A minister w'as very fond of a particularly hot” brand o$ pickles, and finding great difficulty in pro­ curing the same‘sort at hotels when travelling, always carried a bottle With him. Ona day when dining at a restaurant with his* pickles in front of him, a stranger sat down at the same table, and with an Ameri­ can accent, presently asked the min­ ister to pass tile pickles. The min­ ister, who enjoyed the joke, polite­ ly passed the bottle, and in a few minutes had the satisfaction of see­ ing the Yankee watering at the eyes and gasping for breath. “I guess,” said the latter, “that you are -a parson?” “Yes, my friend, I am,” replied the minister. * “I suppose you preach?” asked the Yankee. “YeSs, sir; I preach twice a week usually,” said the minister. “Do you ever preach about hell fire?’” inquider the Yankee. “Yes, I sometimes consider it my duty to remind my congregation of eternal punishment,” returned the minister. “I thought so,” rejoined the Yan­ kee, “but you are the first of your class I ever met W' pies,” arried sam- re at ahff, the capital of Canada’s Na- of that name, is orld as one of the Eitl and fascinating of It is, however, i that Banff in delightful, and snow-shoe race«^ DR.
