OCT. 20, '05 THE itiOLSONS BANK The flttiethannual general meeting of the Alolsons hank took place in Montre- al Monday, 13th inst., at which a large attendance of shareholders were pres- ent. Amongst other natters brought forward was one in which the bank now proposes to pay quarterly divi- dends. In ending up an able address the President, Mr. Will. Molson Macpher- son ;aid: "The whole staff of the Bank has cause• today to feel proud of the result of their work in connection with the Bank. The Directors desire to ex- press to then) their appreciation of their services, and are pleased to be able to show this in a tangible way, by the bonus which has been given." In 1855 the capital of the Molsons Bank paid up was $308,375. Today Its paid up capital is $3.000,000 and $3,000,000 reserve fund. A feature of the year was the payment of a bonus of $29,000 to its officers. To show how the Bank has grown in commercial favor we give figures in 1889 and 1905 as follows: 1889 1905 Capital paid up $2,000.000 $3.000,000 Reserve Fund 1,075,000 3,000,000 Deposits, public 6.596.U)3 20,281,6431 Discounts & loans 9,974,990 17,8:31.821 Loans on bonds,etc 171,258 3,476,345 Price of shares 170 227 We join with Tbo Monetary Times, Journal of Commerce and The Share- holders, three standard t ummercial papers, in saying: "The general financial statement is a very satisfactory one and the share- holders were not slow in acknowledg- ing this. The high enconinms on the general manager and the staff. which were passed, speak well for the man- agement of the Bank. The position of the Molsons Bank to -day is one of which its shareholder's have every rea- son to be proud. During its fifty years existence it never passed a single divi- dend." THE BEST YET The premium picture issued by the Family Herald and Weekly Star, of Montreal, for subscribers this season, is certainly the best vet sent out by that great weekly. Itis entitled: " Queen Alexandra, Her Grandchildren, and Dogs," a most charming and interest- ing subject. of which any home may be proud. The Family Herald has made a decided departure from former years in the selection and style of reproduc- tion of this picture, and the change is sure to be popular. We predict for the Family Herald, with this picture as a premium, the greatest year in the his- tory. The publishers have also issued a book entitled: "The Farriers' Manu- al and Veterinary Guide."said by men capable of judging to be the most val- able work ever issued for the benefit of farmers. This hook can be had on very easy terms --in fact, absolutely free. The conditions on which it can be had may be had at this office, or by writ- ing to the publishers if you are not note a reader of the Fancily Herald and Weekly Star. WORD AND WVOHKS .UAGA'LiNE. Rev.

Dow for the summer, met with a very serious acci- dent on Wednesday. While in the act of repairing the windmill, his left hand got caught in the gearing with the re- sult that his hand was very badly la- cerated. As soon as he was released from his perilous position he was im- ntediately driven to Dr. Proudfoot's, Fullerton, where upon examination it was found necessary to amputate three of the fingers and part os the first. He is getting on as well as can he expected. DEATH.—The fall of the leaf, eruble- tnatic of human life—we bud, we bloom and then decay—and such becomes the more noticeable when one in early youth or middle age falls a victim to the ever dreaded disease, consumption. It is therefore with sad regret we chronicle the death of Mrs. William John Russell, after ten months of un- complaining suffering. During that long period medical skill and affection- ate solicitude put forth their beat ef- forts to try and check the as yet in- curable malady, that slowly but surely snapped the vitality of a once healthy constitution. The end came on Satur- day when she peacefully dropped off into the sleep that knows no awaken- ing. Second eldest daughter of the late Hugh Wiley and born 46 years ago in the vicinity of Gould's school house, Agnes, from girlhood upwards, was noted for her bright vivacity and through married life was devotedly at- tached to her home, husband and fam- ily. In religion she was a strict and faithful member of the Presbyterian churcgh. She is survived by her sorely griet'hd life partner, three sons and three daughters, to all of whom the en- tire community extendsa full measure of sympathetic condolence over their irreparable loss. The large cort- ege that followed her remains to the cemetery here on Tuesday afterno,.n with the floral offerings, resting on She beautiful casket, showed in a marked degree how well the departed parent and friend had been loved by relatives and sisterly neighbors. Rev. Mr. Cranston conducted the funeral services. Ifyos, your fermis or relatives suffer with Fits, Epilepsy, Si.

Gentleman,—Four years ago I purchased from one of your salesmen a Home Comfort Range and have found it all excellent heater and cooker, and a great fuel saver. I be- lieve it will save more than 10 per cent. on its price in fuel, that in ten years will pay for it; and I see no reason why it will not last a life time, being made of steel plate and malle- able Iron. I heartily recommend the Home Comfort to all who want the best, Wishing you success, 1 am, Yours, etc., RICHARD WELSH.
