We are glad to hear that Florence, the little daughter of Mr. and Mrs, A: 'Tewin, who has been very ill with double pneumonia, has taken the change for the better. The deepest sympathy of the entire community is extended to Mrs, Will, Owning in thie her hour of sorrow, in the loss of her young husband, who peacefully passed away to the Great Beyond on Thursday last, after a short illness of a little over a week. On Tuesday he complained of severe pain in the bowels, but was able to walk to the doctor's office from his father's home in Blyth, where he and his wife were visiting. On Wednes- day the pain increased and Drs. Milne and Gunn were called by Dr. Ohar•les- worth, but owing to the intensely swollen abdomen, they failed to locate the trouble, It was thought to be dither peritonitis or appendicitis. Every possible means was used to relieve him, but no relief could be obtained except through morphine. On the following Tuesday afternoon an operation was deemed necessary as tete only possible hope, and for 24° hours it seemed as though a slight improvement was noticed, but the end came on Thursday afternoon. During the intense suffering, which he bore so patiently, he retained his senses until the last, and often ex- pressed his free resignation to the will of the Saviour, and had a calm and beautiful faith that all would be well. Just about 5 years ago he was married to Miss Sarah Fairservice, daughter of Mr. Thos. Fairservice of Hullett. The young couple have resided in B. C. until last spring, when they purchas- ed a farm in Alberta, on which they lived until last December, when they returned to this part for a three months' visit with their numerous relatives and friends. Besides his heart -broken young wife, he leaves to mourn his loss an aged father and mother, four brothers and 3 sisters. The funeral, which was exceptionally large, took place to Burns' Church cemetery, where the last sad rites were performed by Rev. Mr. Small of Blyth and Rev. Mr, Pearcy of Londes- boro. She remembers that voice in the oft lonely hour It comes to her heart with fresh beauty and power, And still echoes far out o'er life's troubled wave, And equnds from the lovedlips that lie in the grave Come this way my loved one, steer straight for me ; Here safely in heaven, I am waiting for thee.

The Presbytery of Maitland tnet in Wingham on March 5th, with a good attendance, Rev, Mr, Bremner reported that all the charges within the bounds are now self-sustaining and that in con- sequence no application for aid would be made to the Augmentation com- mittee. The Statistical report was presented by the Clerk, showing some increases and some decreases for 1011.. Bev, Mr. Ferguson and J, 0, Mur- doch were appoiued to the Synod's committee on Bills and Overtures. Reve. 11. McLennan, D. Perrie, W. McIntosh and J. P. Hardie, with the ]alders. from Walton, Bervie, Belmore and Knox Church Ripley, were select- ed commissioners to the General As- sembly which meets at Edmonton in June. Mr. Hardie will serve on the Assembly's committee on overtures. Mr. Hardie reported on Systematic Beneficence, showing that the Presby- tery's undertaking to raise $16,000 far missions is likely to be realized. Rev. D. A. McLean of Ripley was appointed Moderator of Presbytery for next six months. Rev. Dr. Wilkie of Jambi, India, was present and gave a strong address on work among the Hindooa. Mr. Bremner reported for the com- mittee on supply of students for the ministry. The report showed that by the Assembly's report of 1911, the supply is fax from adequate. That in the last five years, 30 ministers, for financial reasons were compelled to leave the ministry, and 24 students for the same reason gave up prepar- ation for the same ministry, or a total loss of 65 men in five years. If we add to these the men who have fallen by the way, it will be seen that our colleges are not graduating enough men to ,'keep the ranks full to say nothing of adequately supplying the increasing demand for men to occupy our new fields. Hence the Church is not receiving a fair return for the amount of money thus expended. This is apparent when we note that last year Montreal graduated 8 rnen, Queen s,3, and l nnx 17, Ir, was recom- mended :1st --That the representatives of the Presbytery at next Assembly support the policy of the H M S. in the matter of guaranteeing the salaries of all borne missionaries. 2nd ---That this Presbytery continue to advocate in every wise and. reasonable way the paying of an adequate salary to every minister and missionary in the service of the Church. 3rd—That an honest effort be made by every minister in this Presbytery to reach the heart of the situatinn in his own congregation. Mr. McEachern reported on social service and evangelism urging more interest in this most important work. Mr. Wishart reported for the S. S, committee showing that the elders do not take the part in S. S. that they should. It was agreed that more attention be given teacher training in our S. Schools. That ministers and elders take as much interest -as possible in Sunday School and Bible\class work, That Sunday. Schools be urged to observe Children's day as a stimulus to S. S. work. Mr. Bell was given permission to moderate in a call to Wroxeter when the congregation is ready to do so. :Standing Committees were appoint- ed with the following conveners :-- H. M , Mr. Perrie ; F. M., Mr. Bell ; Y. P. S., Mr. Mathieson ; S. 8,, Mr. Lundy ; Social service and • evangelism, Mr. McEacheru ; Augmentation, Mr. McLean ; Systematic giving, Mr. Har- die ; examination of students, Mr. Mc- Lennan ; Statistics, Mr. West ; Re- mits, Mr. Lundy; Aged ministers, Mr. Hardie ; Widows and Orphans, Mr. Bremner. Mr. Bradley was appointed to con- vey the greetings of the Presbytery to the W. F. M. S. and Mr. McIntosh and Mr. Bell to move and second the adoption of their report. The vote on Church union will soon be over. So far twelve congregations have given majorities against organic union and eight in favor of union. Not more than one-half of the members and adherents are voting. Next meeting of Presbytery will be in Wroxeter on Tuesday, May 21st, at 10 o'clock. Western Railway Progress. With reference to the construction work in progress on the Winnipeg - Moncton of the Grand Trunk Pacific, Major Leonard announces that a further expenditure of $112,000,000 will be unavoidable. With few exceptions all of the 1,804 miles are under con- struction and there are between 400 and 500 miles of track still to be laid, He hopes that by the end of next autumn the line between Winnipeg and Cochrane will be completed, and by the ensuing season, the whole line with the exception of the Quebec bridge that would require an addition- al outlay of $22,000,000. Major Leon- ard also refers to the 400 miles of clay belt in Ontario whose fertility is equal to anything on the prairies, and which will be so much nearer the sea by rail, as to greatly enhance the value of Ontario lands. "The Only Thing That Will Relieve Neuralgia." The piercing pains of Neuralgia, which often follows a bad cold dr La Grippe, are frequently almost un- bearable and few medicines afford any relief to the sufferer. `I am a rural mail carrier and have been a user of the Dr. Miles medicines for years.
