AN APPEAL FOR TUE EXTENSION Or THE CHILDREN'S AID SOCIETY OF TUE CotasTf or HURON. President—Ernest Heaton, Barrister, Goderiob. Vice- Pres.—R. S. Williams, Manager Bank of Commerce, Goderiob. Seoretary—Wm. Lane, County Clerk, Goderioh. Trsasprer—B. D. Grant, Goderiob. Executive Committee—The above nam- ed officers and the clergy residing in the Town of Goderioh. The mission of the Children's Aid Socie- ty is to seek out children who are homeless neglected, or living in a vicious atmosphere to flndhomes for them in intelligent Christ- ian families; to visit children so placed out and to guard them against abuse and ne- glect. It is cheaper to save a child than to feed a criminal. The Children's Aid Society provides the legal machinery for saving children. In every oommunity in which an active society exists it is found to have a strong educational force, and is a wholesome check upon careless or vicious parents. Tne children's Aid Society for the County of Huron was formed in Goderich over a year ago, under the provisions of the On. tario Act. During the last twelve months six oases have received the attention of the officers of the society in the police oourt. One boy, aged 14, an orphan, found destitute, has been placed with a good family, where he is learningta trade. A girl, found in disso- late surroundings, has been sent to the home .in connection with the Mercer Re- formatory, and a boy has been oommttted to the Reformatory at Penetanguishene. In addition to this warnings have been served upon several families with very ben- eficial results. In every community, however small, oases ocoasicnally arise which require the attention of the society, and which are en- tirely overlooked if no society exists. At present there are no working memhnra out- side the town of Goderich. At the last annual meeting it was decided to make a vigorous attempt to enlarge the active field of the society's operations, by the forms - tion of auxiliary committees in the differ- ent towns and centres throughout the coun- try. The work of organization in the different centres throughout this county must be carried out by local men. The active interest o tbe clergy and public men is urgently solicited. The president hopes to address the annual meetings of the churches of different denominations this spring, when he will explain the work of the society. For further particulars apply to the president of the society, or to J. J. Kelso. Superintendent of Neglected and Dependent Children of Ontario, Toron to.

To the Editor of the New Era : DEe'.R SIR,. --On leaving Ontario I promieed that you shduld hear from me from time to time. Well, I have delayed from, time, and I don't think I would have written now, as I have just recovered from a severe at- tack of grippe, but I want you to send my pftper to Bruce, which is some four miles from Tyner. I might just het e slate that I could not live without the NEW ERA. I arrived here without any mishap, and wasreceived by many warm ft lends. I like the country very well, although the winter has been ex- tremely rough, yet we all got through without any particular inconvenience. The society in this part of North Das kota is the very best, and why not, when we consider that neatly nine - tenths of the people were brought up in the grand old counties of Huron artd Bruce. Such a bringing up would be sure to tell upon the community of which they form so large a part. There is a large Presbyterian church at Tyner, which is packed full every Sabbath afternoon. 1 understand that they and Bathgate pay about $900 sal- ary, so you will see it is no mission station. There is a large Methodist church at Brnce, school accommoda- tion is very good, but I must say I do not like their way of conducting elec- tions, more particularly municipal el- ections, which take piece every March. They call a township caucus, and they draw up a ticket and put on the names of the township supervisors,magis- trates, constables, road masters, pound keepers, etc. In the township in which I was residing this meeting wets held on a Friday, the election was to take place on the following Tuesday; well the old Board was all put on with- out a dissenting voice, so I, of course. remarked that the expense of an elec- tion would be saved, but they told me no, the ticket would have to bo voted on, as there might be another ticket, and sure enough every group of men that thought they could improve on what had been done would go to the editor and get another ticket out. Then all the voting was done at one place and canvassers would 'stand around the polling -booth and urge on voters to accept their ticket. Web this count? y has no doubt the advan- tage over Ontario as a gratin growing country, but Ontario for good and we'l enforced laws and solid and grand in- stitutions, especially educational, she statlds head and shoulders above any people on the American continent. Now, Mr Editor, thanking you for the space you have given me. I remain yours, J. MURDOCK, late of Hullett. Registrar Gibson is able to walk out a little daily, but not yet to resume his turtles. Australian advices state that Mr Duncan, a white trader, aged 33, who reached Sydney from South Africa last year, ..while trading with natives of New Hebrides, was tied up to one of the trees for three days. being kept alive and forcibly stuffed with food. He was then cut down, killed and eat- en, women even joining joyfully in the cannibalistic feast. Times are good in Britain, and- there is plenty of work at fair wages. The prosperity of the old land is rather a staggerer for the Yankee -Canadian protectionists who theorize that pros- perity is made by Government s through the tariff machinery. A United States exchange, in referring to the depressed condition of things in the States, and comparing it with the times in Britain says: "The price of stock bricks in Lon- don is now nearly $14 per 1,000, which is pet ilously near famine price, brick- yards are springing up like mushrooms all over the country, brick machine makers are working night and day to keep pace with their orders, and French and Belgian bricks ate being imported in large quantities." Canadian build- ers would like to share in such activity. The State's Duty to the Prisoner. The average ago of the convicts of the, United States is not far from 28 years. Therefore, the men constltutirag this body are undeveloped men, so far as age is con- cerned, and, as already stated, they are. undeveloped in their moral and intellectu- al faoulties—In fact, they are undeveloped in all dirootions except -to a pertain extent; in the criminal tendency which oomee, from their environment. They are also, to, a very large extent, short term men. A careful classification of the convicts of the country shows that ala -eighths are short term prisoners, one-eighth incorrigtbtea and one-eighth amenable to reformatory efforts. These proportions are fairly cor- rect. They may be a little too large or a, little too email, but practically they mays bo admitted. It cannot make very much, difference what system is employed so, that itrfeos and wages are not affected, when tit ort term men are considered. The is not much to be gained, wheth- er in the Interest of the state or of the. commuatt*y or of the convicts in patting; them at work under one "system of labor as against another. They must be employ-, ed, their minds must be occupied and they' bands utilized. It cannot, from the very nature of things, bo worth while for they state to erect costly plants for the sake o(; employing them under ono or another vele tem of labor. No one can argue with riae son that the abort term prisoner bimseifie is to bo partloularly benefited by any male employment. The chief point to be Insist -I ed upon is that his labor shall no% bo do; basing. If he apo be employed in makinte blankets, furnitureeemarae boots and shoe, and the infinite variety of things that neap be needed in the state institutions with), out the introduction of power maohinerpn not only the state will be the gainer, bull also the prisoner himself.

P., on behalf of the citi- zens of Seaforth, praying for the erec. tion of a post office there, has been re- ceived, and is now in the hands of Mayor Scott. In it the Postmaster General states that while he fully ap- preciates the fact that better post of- fice accommodation is required here, yet he is of the opinion that the Gov- ernment would not he justified in the expenditure of so large a sum as the erection and maintenance of a public building would entail.

A hard mattress rests the sleeper more than a downy feather bed, because it does not press so many parts of the body at once, relieving certain bumps while the others are being lain upon. No two pairs of shoes are exactly alike on the inside, and changing them once per day eases different portions of the feet by throwing the weight upon other parts. This gives a surprising restfulness to the feet, as well as to the shoe, which also gets tired, just as a razor does. Leathers should always be chosen , ac- cording to the condition of the feet, as they differ materially in•effect and purpose. On every pair of "Slater Shoes” there is a tag, which tells the exact leather used, giving its peculiarities and the wear it is adapted to. You can thus buy "Slater Shoes" intel- ligently and know that they're Goodyear Welted, if you see that they're stamped on the sole with the name acid price—j3-oo, $4.00, or $5.00.
