A decade or two ago, had, you asked a father to send his daughter away to scheol at considerable expense to learn to. cook, sew and keep house, he • would have laughed the idea to scorn. But in this age of scientific farming and progressive agriculture, ,parents have awakened to the svisdom of a good do- mestic seienee training for the girls. to prepare them for as thorough home- makeras their husbands are prztctical farmers. In 1904, Sir William Macdonald, of diontreal, gave the sum of two hun- dred thetisand dollars for the estab- lishment of a domestic seience school at Guelph, Ontario, to work in con- junction with the Ontario Agricul- tural College. This institution grew very slowly at first and was filled inore largely with city girls than far- mer's daughters, but the situation is ,changiog and the institution is filling to overflowing with country girls. Some are taking the professional course, pre- paring themselves for teachers, trained. nurses, house -keepers and the like, but the greater majority of the girls who attend Macdonald Institute are girls who. are engaged to be married and have come there to fit themselvea-for prac- tical homemakers; to learn to do those plain homelyeduties of dusting, sewing, cooking and washing in the most sys- tematic and effective manner. Macdonald Hall, whieh was built with half of Sir William's donation, is a large imposing building built on the Elizabe- thian style with stone trimming. To the visitor approaching it from the front presents a solid substantial and with- al ,a very neat appearance. It is mod- ern in every partin ler and the girls svho make it their home during their col - lige year may, indeed, eount them- eele'es fortunate lin their surroundings. The unfortuuate situetion in Guelph at the present time is that aceom- mod.ation cannot be :mind for more girls than the erosedes for. Room or room and boat I are almost impos- sible to obtain in the city. ELECTRICITY AND TILE FARMER. (Canadian Farm.) They had an electrical show in Chi- cago not Inne ago, and The Live Stock World of that city Is authority for the statement that those most interested in the show and who are the biggest cus- terriers of the manufacturers of ail kinds of electrical appliances such as elect -ie toasters and appatietus for run- ning washing machines, ate., are the farmers. A manager of one of the big exhibits stated, that more orders are be- ing booked. for shipment to the West and Southwest at way-statione and crossroads than in Chicago. The farmer, according to his thinking, has awaken- ed to the fact that electricity nowadays is the eneapest as well as the most con- venient form of help he can find. And se it is if he can get a supply of elettri- city. It takes little power to light a farm house' or outbuilding, to run a feed chopper, a cream separator, and the like, and a small supply of electricity would go a long way for tide purpose.

WilNmEQ L4OZWIttEAL, ENGLISH WOMEN Oritielsms by Wives of Premiere of New Zealand and NeWfoundland. (London Daily Mail.) Lady Ward, who has accompanied her husband, Sir Joseph Ward, the Premier of New Zealand, on his visit to this country for the Imperial Conference and Ike Coronation, expressed her views on Englishwomen in an interview on Mon- day. She finds them very clia.rming, but eriticised some of their characteristics, When talking with an Englishwoman who was not an old friend, she said, she often felt conversation would not go far beyond an exchange of formalitie* unless she berself suggested topics, or asked questions. This was not, she felt: became Englishwomen had little to say, but becalise they were too reeerved„ too eautiouse too formal even, to say it. They were remarkably well informed, and once the lee had been broken talked fluently and with conviction on a subject, particularly if it Were a weigh- ty one. In London women seldom waxed eloquent over trifles; their conversa- tion wa.s more of the solid kind, and not often very animated. There was more than a touch of scholarship about naany Englishwomen end their educa- tion in the narrower sense, their read- ing, seemed much with them, Hence, perhaps, the noticeable absence of self- aesertion in their manner. Englishwomen iznpreseed her RS being solierather than fastidious in the way they dresseel. The elothes of London women were made of the best materials that could be obtained, but the best was not made of materials. The brosil line -s for women's fesbions in all the large capitals were set hy Paris. and nowhere were these directions followed witli more cheerful submission than in Lon- don. But there were alwaye small mod- ifieationa to be made to a general type of dress, persomel touches that Would make the dress getually becoming to the wearer. Englishwomen seldom vem tured to strike thia personal note. They never dressed unfashionably, but 'they did not often drese with distinction. It Was the lack of self.confidence again. Englishwomen. Lady Ward con- cluded, were altogether charming—and they were shy. LADY MORRIS' VIEW. The view of Lady Ward is not shared by Lady Morris, the wife of Sir Edward Morris, Prime Minister of .Newfound- land. Interviewed on Tuesday, Lady Morris said she did not dispute Lady Ward's statements of fact. No one, for instanee, could say the best of Englishwomen were as a class brilliant Conversation- alists, or had sufficient warmth of im- agination to rank as fernmes epirituelles. But in her opiedon the noticeable ab- sence of self-aesertion in Englishwomen MORE PINKIIAM CURES Added to the Long List due to This Famous Remedy.

PARENTS MAY COUNT IT PRIV. LEGE, To Dedicate Sons to Service of God in the Church's Ministry. It is not enough to pray for and sing hymns about the second coming ot Christ. Be has left work to be done by the sons of men before He comes again. That work stands still all over the world, waiting for those sons to be forth- coming, that many may rejoice at their birth. Parents must learn, like Hannah of old, to count it a high privilege to dedicate their sons to God's service; boys and young men must have the sense of voeation aroused and fostered, and church people as a whole must shoulder the burdeit of supplying the funds wherein to train and ecatip young men who come forward. The right at- titude of the laity towards the ordained ministry will be taken tip in preposition as the laity realize their own priesthood. When they have grasped the fact that they are the "leas," the people of God, "a royal priesthood, a holy nation," they will not regard the ordained mintstry as a sepaarte caste, whose business it is to perform their worship for them and to live holy lives on their behalf. I believe that one of the deepest reasons why young men do not dome forward for or- dination iri greater numbers is the gen- eral attitude of the majority of church - people towards religion—the lack of whole -hearted reality. The supply of elergy depends upon the level of spiri- tuality in the members of the church, ao long as that level is as low as it is in the average churehman and there is lack- ing the inspiration of a real liviug faith in God, so long will people prefer that their sons should. make money rather than win souls. When the whole church is raised to a 'higher level 'of spiritual ga life, and glows with the fervor of dere- tion to its Divine Head, then it will have power to inspire its young men with higher ideals and ambitions, e,nd.

This leads us to the question, "For what are we indebted to Chat?" Tn the first place, we are indebted to Him for every good and perfect gift as well as the wonderful fact that "Christ gave Himself for us." He gave up the glory He had shared with the Father from Jill eternity in order that He might identify Himself with us, and become for us the life of God in us, the truth about God and the way to God. His lowly birth, Ills 'humble life, His fearless and beneficent ministry, Hie willing sacrifice, His glorious resurrec- tion and ascension, are all parts of one "unspeakable gift" to your and me. In- eideatal to this perfect gift are all the blessings which have flowed forth to men during the past nineteen centuries; and who is so dull as not to discern these, or so base as to raw to ac- knowledge them? A contemplation Of these gifts and' blessings leads us to the next question, "What return should we make to Christ?" Again we might give in a word a Comprehensive answer—every- thing. (a) Surely our worldly pos. sessions ought to. be at His disposal. In- deed, it is part of Hie grime toyer& us that renders it possible for us to serve Him in this way. For what value could money, as such, have to Him to Whom and by Whom are Oil things? (b) But before our posses - atom we. owe him ourselves. We are purchased by His blood; we are ezved by His sacrifice; we Are filled by inn tnortal hopes by His intereetielote, He has given us new life, and He bet not stopped -with that prietless gift. for He hes given us a means whereby that life shall he daily growing in sanetity.
