Cot. 3, at 7.80 p, m. The President, Ur J. B. W eatherhead, occupied the chair.

Brown, Strang, Sheppard and Misses Halla and Watson. Busineaa—Messrs. Tom, Halls and Hol- man. The next was the President's ad- dress. Mr. Weatherhead chose for his subject, auooess in teaching, and delivered a splendid address whiob was listened to with attention and was highly appreciated. Inspeotor Tom took up book-keeping, dealing with the paper set at the last pub- lio eohool leaving examination. Mr. Tom said that the pupils must have the praoti- oal work, the sets should be short, it ie a mistake to have them too long; pupils should be given exercises in ruling the dif- ferent books used. The subjeot of book- keeping was further discussed by Messrs. Holman, Delgaty, Tom and Sheppard. On Friday J. A. Gregory discussed his method of teaching physiology, dealing with circulation, and illustrating his meth- od with blackboard drawings. This lesson proved very interesting end instructive, and was father disouesed by Messrs. Dolga. ty, Halle, Shephard and others. Mr. Delgaty discussed his motion in fa- vor of holding only one session of the In- stitute yearly. Mr. Delgaty did not press the matter very strongly, but simply lett it for the teachers present to decide. S. P. Halls seconded Mr. Delgaty's motion and spoke in favor of its adoption. The ques- tion was ably discussed by Messrs. Boyd, Brown, Sheppard, Strang, Weatherhead, Tom and Baird. Mr Boyd, seconded by Mr Brown, moved in amendment that the Institute hold two meetings yearly, and that Fridays and Saturdays be the days selected for each meetings. The amendment was adopted unanimously. The next order of business was a litera- ture lesson by Miss Charles, B. A. The lesson selected was "The Forced Recruit at Solferino," one of the Entrance selections for 1896. Mies Charles' method of teach• ing the lesson was greatly appreciated by the teachers. Messrs. Brown, Tom and Baird highly complimented Mies Charles on the excellent address presented. Roll call showed eighty teachers in at- tendance. The next paper taken up was the public eohool leaving literature paper for 1895 ex- amination. Mr Strang dealt with this sub- ject in his usual able manner to the satis- faction of all. Mr Strang urged the teach- ers not to take too much for granted but be sure that pupils understood the fall mean- ing of the lessons. The election of oflicere resulted as fol- lows: President, J. S. Delgaty, Centralia; vice-president, Mise Charles, B. A., God- erioh; sec-treas., G. W. Holman, Huron. dale; exeontive committee, G. M. Kilty, Summerhill; R. E. Brown, Luoknow; Geo. Baird, Clinton; Misses Wiggins, Goderich; Halls, Elimville. The resolution committee recommended that doable entry book-keeping should be substituted for single entry in the P.S.L. course. Mr. Tom took np perspective drawing, and gave the teachers mnoh valaable infor- mation on the teaching of this subject. The teachers being provided with the necessary material took notes on Mr. Tom's lesson. Several of the teaohers discussed this sub- ject. Mr. Strang took np P.S.L. grammar, dealing with the examination papers of 1895. This lesson proved very instructive and the teachers took much interest in it. Dr O'Haran, M. A., a well-kbown ex - High School teaoher, who was present, was called upon to address the Institute, and did so in a telling manner, after which he gave two readings in a masterly fashion, much to the enjoyment of those who had the privilege of healing him. He was ac- corded a hearty vote of thanks at the close of hie splendid effort. The Association then adjourned to meet at the pall of the exeontive committee, GEo. W.

At Stratford Miss Sellers got a verdiot for $5000 for breach of promise and seduc- tion against Mr James, a London hotel - keeper, by whom she was employed as cook.

Whithem, etableman at the Brazier House, Brantford, bad a marvellously nar- row escape from death on Monday. In go- ing into the barn to attend to his ordinary duties, he grasped the incandescent lamp which hung from the roof in order to short- en it by tying a knot in the wire cord. He had no sooner caught the wire than he felt himself as in a vice. The current twisted him into all shapes, .and as he writhed in agony he could not let go. He was drawn up five feet from the ground, then the cord snapped, and he fell, cutting his head se- verely. Help was sent for, and the nnfor- tunate man soon rallied. sc 1 I �,t n We -offer this week mime very special prices in Ladies Mantles, some at about. half price.
