This column has been reserved for the use of the Wingham W. C. T. T.T. and will be edited by the members of that Society. The regular monthly meeting of the Wingham W. C. T. U. was held in the C. 0. F. hall on Tuesday, June 11th. The President, Mrs. Ross, was in the chair; there was a good attendance. An appropriate scripture lesson taken from the fifth chapter of Daniel was given by Mrs. Linklater after which several members joined in short; sen- tence prayers. The reports of the superintendents of the different depart- ments were very encouraging. The Treasurer reported a good cash balance, also an active membership of forty- nine; honarary members twenty; in all a membership of sixty-nine. A donation of $12.50 was sent to the Francis Wil- lard Home, Toronto and plans were outlined for much further work in the immediate future. After a short dis- cussion all the members present pledged themselves to do all they could to help the merchants and delivery boys by doing their shopping before nine o'clock Saturdays evenings. A motion to that effect was put on the books. The meeting closed with singing and prayer. President Jordon, of Teland Stanford University thus recently said, "the time is coming when politics will be the only profession open to the intem- perate man." Railways, steamships, and business men won't have him. Andrew Carnegie's advice to young men: -1. Never enter a bar room, nor let the contents of a bar -room enter you. 2.

The biggest inscription in the world exists in Switzerland, on the slope of a mountain called "Hauseltem." The letters have a height of 198 feet, and the whole word, the name of the mountain is over 2,3000 feet wide. This inscription will only be visible at night, consisting of thousands and thou- sands of electric lights, which are easi- ly seen in Lucerne, a distance of over twenty miles. 3. Concentrate, having entered upon a certain line of work, continue and combine upon that line. 4. Do not shirk, rather go beyond your task. Do not let any young man think he has performed his full duty when he has performed the work as- signed him. A man will never rise if he acts thus.T Promotion comes from exceptional work. A man must dis- cover where his employers interests lie and push for these. The young man who does this is the young man whom capital wants for a partner. He is the young man who by and by reaches the head of the firm. MA-CRIEi) LONGMAN—ELLIOTT.-- At the home of the bride's parents. on June 12th, by Rev. Mr. Bradley.

FOSTER CHAFFEE, A. G, P. A,, Toronto, Ont. Canadian Home Journal. "Furnishing the Bride's Home" is an article in the June Canadian Home Jour- nal that will be of almost as much in- terest to other housekeepers as to the newly married. There are suggestions for furniture. decorations, rugs, etc. Some ideas on picture -hanging are es- pecially valuable. Is there any woman who hasn't wished to know how to arrange her pictures, feeling that hers are too stiff, too crowded, too high or low, somehow wrong. The selection and arrangement of almost any home shows the need of picture education by the majority of women. "Wedding Forms" and "Wedding Decorations" are two very important points of interest to many people about the first of June. There's a half a page of "Appetizing Dishes from Left -overs" that will help keep down the living cost yet still not prevent "living high," which James J. Hill says is the trouble with the present generation, Music, flowers, recipes. menus, puz- zles, toilet suggestions. are interesting to E Jery women, as well as the pages of fashions for all ages and all occasions. The new serial "The Third Man" se- cures one's interest right from the start. It has the unusual plot of amen proposing to a girl. Quite unexpected- ly she accepted him. The "villain" loves the girl and wants revenge, then her best friend loves her, but must suppress his feeling, and the hero cher- ishes the memory of a girl whom he had met for a day about a year before. "Lois Rayburn's Wedding" is an ex- cellently told short story of a girl who broke all the conventions that girls hold most sacred and proposes to the man she is sure loves her but will not ask her to marry him because he will be a cripple for life. "He Settled with Joe" is one of those "wifes birthdayfor a ton„ stories, i es, wherein Davi' enjoys the sweet tort- ures of thanks for a present he hasn't sent, and buys Joe off to keep the sec- ret. "The Cost of A Crime” the notable serial by Annie E. Swan, ends as clever- y, if unsatisfactorily, as all of the novels of this most popular author.
