FORD S •McLEOD Misery in Back, I•leadache and Pain in Limbs. Dear Mr. Editor—For more than a year I suffered with misery in the back, dull headache, pain in the limbs, was somewhat constipated and slept poorly at night until I was about ready to col lapse. Seeing an account of the won- derful qualities of "Anuric," prepared by Doctor Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., I sent for a box, and before using the whole box J: felt and still feel improved. My sleep is refreshing, misery reduced, and life is not the drag it was before. I most cheerfully recommend this remedy to sufferers from like ailments. Yours truly, W. A. ROBERTS. Nora: You've all undoubtedly heard of the famous' Dr. Pierce and his well- known medicines. Well, this prescrip- tion is one that has been successfully r ' used for many a y years by, t h o physicians and specialists of Dr, Pierce, Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, of Buffalo, N. Y., for kidney complaints, and dis- eases arising from disorders of the kidneys and bladder, such as backache, weak back, rheumatism, dro psy, con- gestion of the kidneys, inflammation of the bladder, scalding urine; and urinary troubles. Up to this time, "Anuria" has not been on sale to the public, but by the persuasion of many patients and the increased demand for this wonderful healing Tablet, Dr. Pierce has finally decided to put it into thedrug stores of this country within -immediate reach of all sufferers. I know of one or two leading drug- gists in town who have managed to procure a supply of "Anuria" for their anxious customers in and around this locality. If not obtainable send one dime by mail to Dr. Pierce for trial package or 50 cents for full treatment. EDITOR -Please insert this letter in tome conspicuous place in your paper.

Whooping Cough, although specially a disease of childhood, is by no rucans con- fined to that period but may occur at any time of life. It is one of the most dangerous diseases of infancy, and yearly causes mote deaths than scarlet fever, typhoid or diphtheria, and is more common in female than in male children. Whooping Cough starts with sneezing, watering of the eyes, ,irritation of the throat, feverishness and cough, °, The coughing attacks occur frequently but are generally more severe at night. Ou the first sign of a "whoop," Dr. Wood's Norway Pine Syrup should be administered, and weeks of suffering prevented, as it helps to clear the been - atrial tubes of the collected mucous and phlegtn. Mrs. Nellie Barley, Amherst,- N.S., writes: "I have much pleasure in saying that there is no cough syruplike 1)r. Wood's Norway Pine Syrup.

Patterson 's Surprise sY rr[-irsa. laoLmes P0ttetsot IN MI going horne one nigh from Ms Club. On pnuiu.g a house standing alone and well back from (hi street he saw the flash ofadark lantern in Hae barnyard, it was 'in staulaueous. but it was enough to,sug- gest to 'Mut that he had hit upon a job of boosobaerling, Tie ensconced himself behind a tree box and watch- ed. The flash was repeated, and this time be 8ary by it 'a may opening a window with a jimmy. • Tbe Ivan hold- ing the lantern was in darkness. The mile with the jimmy, having made an opening for himself, clambered in, and all was dark again. At that moment 0 policemanentered the grounds where the robbery was be - Mg committed. He made no sound in his tubber boots, which adder; to the midnight uncanny flavor of the pro- ceeding. The cop disappeared toward the rear. Patterson's curiosity was aroused. Ile wanted to see the result. Following the policeman, he entered the yard and concealed Memoir behind a bush. Occasionally there were Hash- es of ash-es,oi' light, some of them very brilliant. which indicated that there were a' number of burglars or policemen, prob- ably the latter. Patterson concluded that the cops were surrounding, the house. He surmised that he would be one of the cordon and would be in at the capture. What puzzled hint were the occasional flashes of brilliant light - Surely the cops would not have used such illumination unless they had their prey secure. Patterson advanced toward the house and at one of the bright flashes saw that he was one of the ring of police- men that was surrounding the house. But the dash was so brief that he had not time to notice how the 'city's guardians looked upon a doilian join- ing in with them in a duty. Suddenly the house was illuminated. Evidently the police had cornered the burglars, and there was no further occasion to work in the dark. Patterson was standing near a door opening on to a side porch. A girl in night clothes stood in the hall, looping very much frightened and apparently not know- ing' which way to turn. Then seeing Patterson she ran to him and threw herself into his arms. Patterson stood dumfounded for a moment; thea surmising that there n•ss a fight in the house between the police and the burglars, and if so it was no place for a woman in night clothes, picked up thegirl and started for the street. He had no difficulty in (indite; Ids way, for he was moving in an intense light. "Put me clown," said the girl sharp- ly wben they .reached the sidewalk. Patterson obeyed. The girl opened the gate and ran like a deer back to the house. lite could not see what she did when she reachedit, for the bright light being shut off made the darkness darker. "By guml" exclaimed Patterson, "I've heard of horses running foto a burning stable, but never have I dreamed of a girl so crazed as to run into a buiidfng, where robber's were disputing with the police!" He was about to retrace l:ts steps that he might see the end of the affair when a man came from the home to where he was standing. Patterson judged from his appearance that be was neither a cop nor ti burglar. He was evidently -looking for some one. Patterson, who was standing in shad- ow, slipped out into the light- As soon as the man saw him he said gruffly: "Oh, here you are, are you? You're ori h interfering the man who o as been me Brig 3u g u n• concern you. at d es't e Btu y o. Move on" "I shoutto know,"Pat d like Patterson was beginning. but the man gave him a push, and Patterson, who was not fond of fighting to have his 0 u way, , -concluded that he had better go home. On reaching his room he lighted a ciga- rette and, throwing himself on to a -lounge, gave himself up to going over the strange adventure. He could not make head or tail of it. Not long after that Patterson and his girl were at the movies. Patterson was a swell and his girl a high stepper. The performance was sensational. In one of the productions Patterson saw a flash picture of a burglar opening a window. It seemed familiar to him. The next thiug be knew there he was on the screen carrying a girl in her nightclothes in his arms. Then he and the girl were given in a close up pic- ture. The expression 0n his face in the photograph was such as to set the au- dience laughing. The expression on her face was one of horror. A few min- ores later Patterson's girl arose and swept out of the theater. He followed her and attempted- to get Into the car - ria with- her, lout she slamiued es _Lha g door, and the driver started up the horses.

SINTIAlf SCHOOL Lesson IX.—Fourth Quarter, for Nov. 26, 1916. THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES. PAGE THIRER Textof the Lesson, .Rom. nil,, 1-8. Memory Verses, 8-8— Golden Text, Rom, xii, 1—Commentary. Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. .this is our last study in the epistles for some time to come, but the believer who desiresto grow in grace loud walk with the Lord will study them con- stantly. in our lesson of two weeks ago we gave some attention to the whole of this epistle, but a little repeti- tion will be helpful, .w1th some addi- tional thoughts, The epistles, as a rule, are for believers or saints or saved sinners to build them up and fit them for service, that {sort may be glorified in them and other sinners saved to hell. complete the church and bring the time of the kingdom. Tho first eight chapters of this letter teach most rally and clearly that all, with- out exception, Jews and gentiles, are sinners and guilty before God and that salvation is wholly of grace, apart from any works of ours, and that, being Justified freely by His grace, we are made children of trod, joint heirs with Jesus Christ, in the love from which nothing can separate us; that, while we wait for our redemption bodies and the deliverance of the whole creation from its bondage and groaning, we have all things freely given us in Christ and all things are working to- gether for our highest good. Chapters ix, x, x[, may well be called an epistle within an epistle concerning Israel and her future. Then in our lesson chapter end onward we are told how we ought to live here to the glory of God because of all that He has done for us through grace. "I beseech you, therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God," because of His great grace, His great love, Flit great salvation, the great glory of the kiugdom to which He has called you. all that Fle bas done for you, is doing now and will yet do. Let IIint have your body to live in, to make a mansion of, while He is preparing your mansion in glory. In Rom, vlli, 20, 31, 34. we learn that the Father. Son uud Holy Spirit are all for us, and in John sir, 17, 23, we learn that they will male their home in us 10 ive are wlltingemahhig each of us a mansion for the indwelling Trinity while our mansion in heaven is being prepared. The words "mansion',' and "abode" in John xiv, 23, are the same word in the Greek, a little noun of only four letters, and used nowhere else. The same truth is stated a little dif- ferently in Eph. iii, 17, "that dhrist may dwell or make His home in your heart by faith." The living sacrifice consists of our being willing to die to all that is oe self for Ills sake. It cannotbe self and Christ. It must be I "Not e but Christ" (Gal. ii, 20), "Wo who live are always delivered unto death for Jesus' sake that the life also of testis might be made manifest ju our mortal flesh" (H Cor. iv, 10, 11). As it is written in nom, vitt, 30; Ps. ally, 22, "For Thy sake we are kill. ed all the clay long." Being made ac- cepted be the Beloved at such iu3nite cost, so great a secri0ce on Ells part, it is a reasonable service that we should be willing to be a sacrifice for Him, both in word and deed, that no may be seen in us and known through us (Phil. Iv, 18; Ofeb. slily 15, 10). We have been called out of the world to ' continue m it 'but not be of it. The whole world' lieL•h in the wicked one. It : is an evil world, mai ways s t nd cus- toms are all opposed to God, and the only correct attitude for the believer is trait had It to us (Gal. i 4; erneffl0d o , , ( vi, 14; John v, 19). The works of God are beautiful, but men at enmity with God are under the control of the devil, and the condition of things in Europe (June, 1915) gives us some idea of what be can do. Be is a deceiver, a liar, a destroyer, a mur- derer, and all who are not in Christ and on his side are on the side of the devil. How can -a child of God be willing to be conformed to such a world? The word that is translated "transformed," is used only four times and twice in the account of our Lord's transdgnration (Matt, xvii and Mark ix). The other place besides here 1s II Cor. iii, 18, where the translation 1a "are changed." Our lesson verse says that the change must be inward, the renewing 0f our mind. It begins when we receive the Lord Jesus and thus become new creatures in Christ; then as we continue beholding Him we are changed by the Spirit day by day, proving more and more fully how good and acceptable and perfect the will of God is. All that follows in our lesson chap- ter is the varied manifestation of the fruit of the Spirit, which He will work in us if we are yielded to Him, Verses 3.10 tell of a lowly mind and a lowly aim, not thinking anything of ourselves nor seeking great things for ourselves. for There is a place sada ministry each member of the body, as the Spirit may decide, and no room for envy or jealousy (verses 4.8). In the service of the Lord there must be diligence, with joy and ,patience and prayer and love; a readiness to forgive and to esteem others better than ourselves (verses 3-15). Verse 18 hints that it may not be possible to live peaceably with some people, and such circumstances will need special grace and wisdom and guidance, which God will not fail to give: Cltsofes Cotton Root Conlpotai9d. d safe, reliable rcpn„ 21in,, noediesee, Sold in thaeo c15. areas of strength No. 1, 0l.; No. 2, 03; N6.3, 55 per boas Sold by all d nrggisto or sent ppr opeid on .rl.ac,pt 0f rpr= IreO pampt,lot.

Forty-four years ago Queen Car- men Sylva, then Princess Elizabeth, answered the question as to Rou- mania's attitude in the event 00 Eu- ropean war, in words that would not seem inappropriate to -day. Her father-in-law, Prince Charles An- thony of Hohenzollern, had just written to his son, urging that, al- though Roumanian national instinct might be anti -German, "the Teuton element to -day possesses the great- est vitality and the richest future, and Roumania can only remain the mistress of her own future by a sen- sible union with it." But Princess Elizabeth did not commit herself when she 'met the Prince of Wales (Ring Edward) at Naples, With whom would Roumania side in a war? he asked. "With the strongest of course!" replied the Princess. Going Strong. Commander .Evans, of the Scott Expedition fame, is evidently "go'ng strong" in the present war. After being in command of two -destroyers, the Mohawk and the Viking, he is now promoted to the charge of the Crusader. His success will be all the more agreeable to him in view of the fact that in a few weeks' time he will be inai'ried in London to a Handsome Norwegian girl, 11lfss Elsa Andvord, who was introduced to him by Ring Haakon as "tam belle of Christiania," The commander's fleet wife, it will be remembered, died tragically at'sea while returning with him to England after the Scott.

Is bocce, 25 cf ob Wein BOARDS OF AGRICULTURE. Farmers' institutes Reorganized on a New Basis. An important step in agricultural education in Ontario has recently been taken by the Department of whathave n which Agriculture r• u under as Partners' Institutes n acmers st been known w have been reorganized into Boards of Agriculture. This is a change that h 1 for -. -under ation a. keencontemplation e mp some time, and has been necessitated by the general advance of agricul- tural education in Ontario. Under the reorganization plan all the Farmers' Institutes south and east of Muskoka will become Boards of Agriculture. Each Board will elect a repreeeetati've to a central executive committee which will sup- ervise all the work undertaken by the different Boards. Tbe Farmers Institutes were first formed in 1884, and since that time they have carried on an effective work in bringing a knowledge of im- proved agricultural methods to the farmers of the Province. Under the . new organleation the aim will be to maintain the high standard that has been set, to improve the nature of the meetings held in each district, and to enlakge the scope of the work ss far as possible. Only competent speakers will be r•nployed, and each must be a specini-st in his'own line. At the same time encouragement bev. will given to the he formation of Farmers' Clubs, eealeh will be purely local organizations, each developing its own local talent. The Institutes Branch of the De- partment of 'Agriculture will co-oper- ate with the District Representative and the local Board of Agriculture with the view to improving the qual- ity of live stock by the holding of short judging 0011rsee. The Farmers' l b u Clubs, s, Agric 1tural Societies, and township Reeves and Clerks will be asked to appoint re- presentatives to the local Boards of Agriculture, and to send the names of the persons ateminted to the se- cretary of the Board.
