At a meeting held in Knox Church, Kincarcardine, a very hearty and un- animous call was extended to Rev. Malcolm McArthur, of Scarboro. The congregation offers $1,400 and manse, and a months vacation. The Methodist Ecumenical Confer- ence, after a session of fourteen days at Toronto, came to a close last week. The topic of the last session was union, co-operation, economy in the use of the forces and means at the disposal of the various branches of world Methodism. Statistics presented showed that the members and adherents of Methodist bodies number 32,727,579. The question of Church union is to be submitted to the official boards and the membership of the Methodist Church within the next six months. The Gen- eral Conference special committee at its annual meeting on Thursday in the board room at Wesley buildings, Tor- onto, directed that a vote be taken by the official boards not later than the third quarterly meeting of the boards in the Conference year; that is, in Feb- ruary, and that a vote of the member- ship shall be taken not later than April 15th, THE YOUTH'S COMPANION IN 1912. Mrs. H. V. Ossinger, Tiverton, N. S., says; "We have used Baby's Own Tablets since our little boy was three weeks old and know of nothing to equal them. He is now twelve onths old and has always enjoyed p feet health. Baby takes the Tablets asily and we always keep them in t house," Mrs. Ossinger's experi n is that of thous- ands of other m rs. An occasional dose of the Tables will keep the well child in excellent health, or if the baby is ill with any of the many ailments that afflict little ones, they will speedily restore him to health again and make him thrive and grow fat, rosy and strong. The Tablets are sold by meet -- eine dealers or by mail at 25e, a box from The Dr, Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont, No other paper is quite like The Youth's Companion. It is taken in half a million homes, where the choice of reading is made with as much care as the choice of friends. For years The Companion has enjoy- ed contributions by distinguished men and women of Great Britain and Can- ada. Among those already engaged to write for the 1912 volume are General Baden-Powell, who has something, of interest to say about the Boy Scout movement, Sir Harry Johnston, who recalls the last of the Great South African hunters, William T. Stead, Jerome K. Jerome, Jane Barlow, Frank T. Bullen, Rev. W. J. Dawson, Richard Whiteing, Sir James Crichton-Browne, and the Duke of Argyle, former Gover- nor-General of Canada. The serial stories alone, which will follow one another the year through, will be worth $1.50 each when published in book form. By taking the Compan- ion the Canadian subscriber gets them all and 250 other complete stories for $2,00, and the Articles, Miscellany,.
