In the west this is especially emphasized, of course, due to the newness of the country and its concomitant hardships, and also to the fact that so many new citizens of the prairie provinces have not yet sent to the old country for the feminine por- tion of their families. In Ontario the gentler sex are in the" minority by 65,44$, the respective fig-- lurea being: Males, 1,299,403, and fe- males,. 1,223,955. In Toronto,, however, a fair percentage of the ladies will nev- er obtain 'husbands unless they seek them elsewhere for there are not enough men to go around, The figures show a total of only 161,968 males, compared with 165,958 females in the five divisions of the city, a difference 'of just about four thousand.. ,In the south rididg alone have the bachelor maids cause to take heart of grace; in that part of the city they are outnum- bered by the men in the proportion of ten to twelve. The case is different in Hamilton, where there are 39,640 males and 47,437 females, but the ladies get the short end of it again in London, where number 24,403, with only 21,902 males in the community. In Ottawa the condition is the same, males num- bered 34,835 and females 38,353. The excess of males is also notable in the province of Quebec, where they are in the majority by 19,707. They 'number 1,012,506, while the total of fe- 'males is 992,799. The eight Montreal ridings also show more males than fe- males, in distinction from Toronto, with totals of 267,710 males and 259,918 females. But in Quebec's city and `county divisions the females are again present in the biggest numbers, with the figures showing 39,687 males and 43,213 of the other sex. Even in the long -settled Maritime Provinees the refrain of the old song, "three women to every man," proves to be a fallacy. In New Brunswick the women number 172,023, and the men 179,865. At the same time the ladies have a majority in St. John city and county. They are 27,489, while the men total 26,082. There are ten thous- and more males than females in Nova Scotia, the figures showing 251,019 of the former and 241,320 of the Iatter. In Halifax the two sexes are almost equal in numbers, 40,061 men and 40,- 167 women. Prince Edward Island has a population of 47,065 males and 46,657 females. As one travels westward the baehe- lor becomes a more and more notice- able feature of the country. In Mani- toba the sexes are divided, 250,196 males and 205,673. ferrules, and in the city of Winnipeg the man number 70,- 017 and the women only 57.971. In Saskatchewan there are 286,114 men, while the women are but 198,?78; in • Alberta the men preponderate to a still greater extent. There are 224,417 of them, and only 151,017 of the gentler sex. There are 106,883 more men than women in British Columbia, the popu- lation being divided into 243,835 males and 130,952 females. In Vancouver the figures are 74,890 men and 49,512 wo- men, n and i Vic Coria 19,077 men and 12,611 women. The figures for some of some of the IIEADACIIE Seems To Be Habitual With Many People. Some are seldom, if ever, free from it, suffering continually and wondering why they tail get no relief. headaches are generally caused by soave derangement of the stot'aach or bowels, or both. Burdock Blood Bitters removes acidity of the stomach, improves digestion, regu- late; the constipated bowels, and pros metes a perfect circulation of pure blood to all portions of the body, thereby curing the headache* by reinoviiig the cause. Mrs.1;.1Vlagtiire, Kiemount, Ont., writes; -"I are writing you a few lines to telt You what your Burdock Blood Bitters has done for :tae. I used to be greatly troubled with headaches, but after using two bottles of Burdock Blood Bitters 1 teas completely cured. This was two years ago and I have bed he return of headache dince."

The total Liberal gains were 20,415, and the total Conservative gains, 80,769, to which Ontario contri- buted 27,468, and Quebec, 27,959. \ It' was in Ontario that the Liberal party suffered the keaviest loss. In the other two Provinces in which there were Liberal losses in the total vote, as com- pared with the total rote in 1908, the losses were only in hundreds; but in Ontario the Liberal loss on September 21 was 26,328, In Quebec the figures show a Liberal gain of 10,053, as again- st the already -noted Conservative gain of 27,959 in that Prbvinee.

Loam, NIW$, The spirit of the infant son of Mr. 0. Gilchrist, of this town, took its flight to the realms above, on Sunday last, caused by some infantile disorder.,, At the meeting of Wingham Lodge, No. 139, A. 0. U. W., on Friday even- ing last, the fallowing officers were ap- pointed for the current term: J. E, Tamlyn, M. W.; Geo Moffatt, F'.; W. S. Hawk, 0.; E. C. Clark, R,; J. W. Wacker, Fin.; Thos. Bell, R,; G. Path - ick, G.; C. N, Griffin, I. G.; J. Dinsley, 0, G.; J. W. Walker, R. to G, L. At the last meeting of the Camp of Sons of Scotland, in this town, the fol- lowing officers were elected for the current term: Dr. Meldrum, Chief; Jas, Tees, Chieftain; Rev. E. W. Hugh- es, Chaplain; A. K. Cameron, Sec'y.; T. M. Henderson, Fin. -Sec.; Jas. Lou - tit, Treasurer; Jas. Alpine, Marshal; L. McLean, Standard Bearer; H. Ham- ilton, Senior Guard, and John Murray, Junior Guard. Messrs. Murray Bros., of St. Marys, were here on Wednesday, purchasing carriage horses and were successful in securing a number of fine animals. At a meeting of Knox church, Brus- sels, on Friday last, a unanimous call was extended to Rev. D. Millar, lately of Chester church, Toronto, and for- merly of Aylmer, Quebec. The hand of death has once more been in our midst and this time has taken from us Mr. Hugh Sharpe, broth- er of Mrs. C. Dallas, of this town, aged 43 years. About 18 years ago the deceased met with a severe accident in Detroit, by falling off a dray on the pavement, whereby he injured his spine. For several years he visited various hospitals in the hope of receiv- ing relief, but without success, and about nine years ago he came to reside with his brother-in-law, Mr. C. Dallas. The people of the town were pain- fully shocked to hear of the sudden, though not unexpected death of a high- ly respected townsman, on Monday morning last, in the person of Mr. Wm•. Smyth, aged 52 years. The deeea d had been ailing since last February at which time he became a subjects to la grippe, which' malady quickly deieleped into lung trouble and kidney disorder, but we believe the latter was the im+ mediate cause of death, Mr. Smyth has been a prominent resident of Wing - ham for the post'sixteen: years andwa* highly respected by all. He carried on a very successful marble business in this town. • OOZE.

Mei. 10, 1 to ly, 3 (Instead of Review) --•Memory Virtu, Ili, 10, 17 -Golden 'Text, Mel, 10, T, Commentary Prepired by Rey. D. M, 8teerne, =sough a portion of this proph cy has been assigned as Nile lemon, the lesson suggests a study or the whole prophecy. The Wards "lily messenger" of ill, 1, are just a translation of the word "Malachi" of 1, 1, aid through the messenger we learn "tbe burden of the word of the Leal," which is, "I have loved you" (1, 2). We are reminded of pent, vii, 6.8, where the only reason given wby the Lord chose them for 4 speefai people unto Rio elf is '`because the Lord loved you." compare Jer. Ixxl, 3; John ill, 16; zIil, 1; xv'9714111 9; 1 John 10, 16. Wbo Is this teat 8o loves unlovely people? Even He who says,• "I am a great King, My name shall be great among the nations. I am the Lord. I change not" (i, 11, 14; Iii, 6). What does Ile ask in return for such love? Simply that they bear His mes- sage, lay it to heart and give glory to Itis name, walking with Him in peace and equity, even as Levi did (11, 2, 5, 6), bringing In all the tithes and "proving Ulm as ready to pour upon them more blessing than they could receive 10), for He is able to do exceeding abundantly above all we ask or think, (Epy, (il, 20). Haw did they retrial such love? They despised His IMO by offering polluted bread upon His al, tar, by offering the blind, the lame and .the sick for sacrifice; by offering to tale Lord what they would .not otter their earth! ruler and by calling all their so called service a weariness (l, 6-9, 12, 18). They wearied the Lord with their words, saying, "Every one that doeth evil is good in the sight or the Lord, and he delighteth in them" 01, 17). They robbed the Lord of hosts in tithes and offerings and yet said, "Wherein have we robbed thee?" They said, "It is vain to serve God, and what profit is it that we have kept His ordinance and walked mournfully be- fore Him?" They called the proud happy and set up those who wrought wickedness (111, 8, 13-15). Yet He said: "Return unto Me, and I will return unto you. I will rebuke the devourer, and all nations shall call you blessed, for ye shall be a delight- some land, saith the Lord of hosts" (ill. 7, 12). He is the same as when He pleaded with them before the captivi- ty, saying, "0 Israel, thou hast de- troyed thyself, but in Me Is thine help" "0 Israel, return unto the Lord by God, for thou bast fallen by thine nlquity" (Hos. xiii, 0; siv,.1). "Return, hou backsliding Israel, saith the Lord, * • only acknowledge thine in gutty. * • * Turn, 0 backsliding hildren, • • * for I am married into you" (Jer. 111, , 12-14).
