The only one of its kind in our country, it began sixty years ago as a tiny mission in ah upper room. Gradually it grew till in 1926 the congregation was able to ’erect the present appropriate structure, which for ten years was served by lay-preachers. Finally It was able to secure as its pastor the Rev. Alex MacGowap. Mr. MacGowan, who is especially interesting to us since he was at one time a beloved pastor in our little country church, is particularly suited to his task, He came to this country from Scotland at the age of sixteen as a weaver, who by virtue of his upbringing had a close understanding of the problems of working people. Through domestic affiliations he became proficient in the language of the deaf and so was particularly qualified for the work to which he dedicated his life, To his church come all sorts and conditions of men. Unified by the language of the deaf, which is international and universal in its character, men and women of every race can find here expression for their souls’ needs. In the service of worship they profit by all of the usual exercises, -prayer, Scripture, hymn-singing, all in' the swift and silent language which is their own. The activities of the community of the deaf in To­ ronto centre in this church and revolve around the understanding minis­ trations of its pastor and his wife. The congregation has its own Red Cross, its clubs and sports, its recreation rooms and its theatre and many a problem is brought for settlement to the quiet study in the parsonage. In some way it seems that the story of this unusual Christian work is particularly suited to the Easter season, for in a very real way it demon­ strates the spirit of the resurrection, the factual expression of the calling of souls from the loneliness of silence into the full sunshine of the liberty ■ot the Gospel of Christ. Let -me keep Lent, Let me not kneel and pray, Forego some trifle every day, Fast and take Sacrament . , , And then Lend tongue to slander, hold ancient grudge, deny The very Lord whom I glorify.

Our highly-civilized egg machine, which we call the laying hen, is des­ cended from a little, red, partridge­ like bird, running wild in the Malay jungles. The natives there use the roosters for alarm clocks. ’ ' The color of the egg shell has [nothing whatsoever to do with the birthday* quality of the egg. White, speckled ’ or brown, all that matters is “Is it fresh?” Canadians are the world’s great­ est egg eaters; we use 252 eggs per person per year. Now, with a world at war, Germany allows her people 79 eggs per person per year. Al­ though eggs are not rationed in Britain, the grown-ups averaged 3 6 eggs per person per year (the child­ ren get more.) In France, the al lowance is 6 eggs per person year.—Montreal Standard. .

Since that time It has had flowers annually, in fact one year it had three different sets of blossoms. The flower, borne on a long, woolly stem, consists of three rows of pointed, waxy white petals in a bell-sliaped formation and spreading to a diameter of five inches. The stamens, of a delicate green and white, stand erect in groups around the inside of the bell, ending below in a Compact hol­ low mat of finely-fringed tips. The bloom unfolds slowly, taking four or five hours to reach perfection, then withering rapidly, so that by next night it Is gone.

The tise of cheap, haish purgatives will never get you any where as they only aggravate the trouble and in­ jure the delicate mucous lining of the bowels, and are very liable to cause piles. If constipated, take Milburn’s Laxa-Liver Pills and have a natural movement of the bowels. They do hot gripe, weaken and sicken as inany laxatives do. Tho T. Milburn Co., Ltd,, Toronto, Ont.
