For this paper aloue it was worth while attending the couvention. Ou Friday evening the teachers were entertained by the teachers of the Sea. forth Collegiate institute and pnblio school at an At-home in the assembly room of the institute. A most enjoyable and social time was spent. The follow- iug is the program:—Iastrumeutal duet, Mr, and Miss Livens; address of wel- come, Mr. M. Y. McLeau ; reply to the address, Mr. J. Houston, M.A. ; recita- tion, Miss Hazel Reid; vocal solo, Mr. McLeod; violin solo, Miss Daly; ad- dress, Mr. B. B. Gunn; vocal duct, Messrs. Willie Bros.; recitation, Miss L. Best; quartette, Messrs. Willie Bros., Bright and Pickard; instrumental duet, Misses Cluff and Bright. After this ex- cellent musical and literary treat, re- freshments were served. The following officers were elected for the ensuing year:—President, Mr. G. F. Rogers, B.A.; 1st vice-president, Miss M. L. Brock; aud vice•presideut, Mr. Robert Weir; secretary -treasurer, Mr. John Hartley; executive committee, Messrs. W. R. Lough, J. H. Cameron, W. J. Moffatt, A. Hamilton and J. L. McLaughlin; Anditors, Messrs. A. Munro and W. Wilson. The treasurer read the financial state• meat, showing a balance ou hand of $24.49. The report was adopted on mo- tion of Messrs. Musgrove and Scott. On motion of Messrs. Musgrove and Moffatt the executive committee were authorized to secure a copy of the min- utes of the Ontario Educational Associa- tion for each teacher in the iuspectorate, also to act in unison with the executive of the West Huron Teachers' Institute and if practicable to arrange for a union meeting of the teachers' iustitutes of East a d West Huron in Clinton in 1905. The regular annual meeting of the East Huron Teachers' Institute was held in the Seaforth collegiate institute ou Friday and Saturday, May 13th and 14th. The first session opened ou Fri- day at 10 a. tn., the president, Mr. J. Houston, B. A , iu the chair. After the president had conducted opening exer- cises the following committees were ap- pointed: --Program. Messrs. Musgrove, Lough and Moffat ; Resolutions, Messrs, Rogers, Robb and Scott; Reporters, Messrs. "Wi. it and Hartley. The fir paper was one on history, taken by Mr. R. Weir, iu which the subject wus concisely opened up for dis- cussion. Oue of the ptiueipal features of the paper Sas the special attention called to Dr. T. Chi:lwlta's poetical history of England in one hundred lines The speaker strongly condemned the abusive us;e of notes ant recommended the thorough teaching of the leading events of each period and the grouping of lesser events around these. The prin- cipal aim of history is to create a desire for historical rettdiugs. Special atten- tion to be giveu to, 1st, histol ical kuow- ledge; 2nd, mental power; 3rd, individu- ality of the child. Mr. Murch gave a very . concise and interesting account of the 43rd mutual meeting of the Ontario E.lneational As- sociation held iu University building, Toronto, ou April 5th, Osh and 7th. Miss Ada Beattie opened the afternoon session with a very pleasing and well rendered recitation entitled "Kentucky Belle." Mr. Thomas N. Forsyth taught a les- son on linear, surface, boai$i and cubic measure, to a class of five girls. By re- presenting linear measure with a sheet of paper, board measure with a foot of lumber, and cubic measure by twelve feet of lumber piled upon one another, Mr. Forsyth made the relation among the measurements very clear. Miss M. L. Frock vindicated the for- mer impression that she had left by her former rapers. Miss Brock introduced the paper by defining literature as the spiritual couceptiou of the writer in the very beat language. Then she gave ample proofs of the value of literature in developing the intellect, imagination and judgment. Sotne of the most im- portant thoughts dwelt on by Miss Brock. were; 1st, read quietly many times allowing the beautiful impression to sink into the mind ; 2nd, clear ideas of true justice; 8rd, the unexcelled use of literature in developing expression. In conclusion, she said, her idea iu teach- ing history was to cause tight thinking and consequently right*ting. Rev. Mr. Hodgins gave an interesting address on "Patriotism." We should be proud of our native loud because (a) of its extent; (b) of its magnificent fa- cilities for transportation; (c) of its agricultural possibilities; (d) of its mines; (e) of its railroads; (f) of its timber; (g) of its fish. Canada's grow- ing time is upon her. Let us help her. lst, by striving to secure as settlers peo- ple who will be loyal to our government, our laws and the Christian religion ;2nd, by frowniug down Tammany methods in our elections: 3rd, by branding all our exports with the words Froin Can- ada;" 4th by begetting in the children love and loyalty to Canada. The next talk was given by inspector D. Robb, B.A., on "The New Curricn- lnm." The poiuts touched on were; School libraries, objections to free read- ers, necessity of educational papers, no need of home work for third class ;moral The Inability to Mr. Rogers took up his paper on "Science Teaching in Public Schools." e said we should strive to make our teaching follow naturally the trend of the working of the child's mind befote be enters school. He gave a few simple experiments to teach 'dew, fog, rain and wind. Go to the woods in the spriug with your pupils and lead them to ob- serve the roots of plants, the work of iusects in carrying the pollen dust. In the fall get them to collect specimens of seeds and teach them how seeds disperse themselves so that the planta grow up everywhere they find suitable environ- ment. Pupils should remain iu the pub- lic schools at least two years longer than they do. Mr. Rogers' paper was inter- esting and instructive. Discussion fol- lowed by Mr. Robb. The next paper was taken by Mr. Loughead, of Clinton collegiate insti- tute. He first gave some ideas along the fundamental lines of geometry. Some of the leading points brought out were: Geometric elements; a line should have some connection with our ideas and pro - I teed from physical and real to geometri- 1 cal. Then by illustrating he showed how to develop the idea of point, line and surface; a straight line is that of which every part has the same direction. Mr. Loughead then worked out very clearly many other definitions from this defini- tionof a straight line. Some of these were triangles, circles, etc. He showed by illustration how to proceed in the teach- ing of propositions. He also showed how pupils could acquire a clear idea of angles by use of a protractor, or by tak- ing a pencil and rotating the pencil to show the size of the angles. All the in- troductory illustrations iu the arst six books of euclid can be taken up in this method in one year. The school board of Clinton cannot be too highly congrat- ulated on having as a mathematical mas- ter, Mr. Loughead. Mr. A. E. Smith took up his subject, "What 'Teachers Ought to Meow." THE (1country, there should be room fora large U' exchange in dissimilar products, the poprs Doci.nho kiud of reciprocity which even the trade restriotionists profess to favor. The "[Tufted States refuses to negotiate re. ciprootty treaties with any foreign coun- tries audit may be that tarritf arrange- ments can be concluded which will admit Cauadiap products to the Mexican minket on more favorable terms than American exports. AN INTERESTING SKETCH OF A FAMOUS CHARACTER. How He Differs From His Canadian Colleagues—An Example hof Bi n Followed Worty g • Dr. Lappoui the famous physician to the Vatican, whose name has recently come so greatly to the Trout on account of his unremitting attention to His Holi- ness the late Pope, Leo XIII„ and the high esteem with which be is regarded by the preseut Pope, His Holiness Pius X., is a man of commanding genius. But he is something more than that. He is more than a mere man of science, He is a utas of original and independ- ent mind. He stands out among medi- cal men of all nations, themselves the flower of the world's intellect, hy reason of his fine independent personality. He has had differences with his fellow scientists. But no ene has ever disputed for an instant the remarkable uature of his professional attainments or the un- fliuching integrity of. his persoual char- acter. He is afraid of no man. But he has a higher courage still. He is not afraid of the bugbear of professional etiquette which frightens even some of the greatest doctors. As au example of this may be men- tioned one very interestiug respect iu which he has differed from the medical men of this country. The latter are trammelled by medical etiquette. No oue disputes their scientific skill or their unselfish devotion to their work. But they are limited in their labors by one re- markable scruple. They will prescribe and experiment with drugs of all kinds sanctioned by the Pharmacopoeia or newly introduced; but where a medical discovery, even when it is the life -work of 11 regular practitiiug physician, is recommended to the general public by tt manufacturer, professional etiquette steps iu and frightens them. No matter how overwhelming the evidence of such a discovery, v hon sold as a proprietary mediciue, has accomplished, they look coldly upon it and will rarely admit that they have used it with success. It would lie "unprofessional" to do sol Dr. Lap- poui is troubled by no such scruples. For instance, the numerous remarkable cures which have been proved by news- paper reports, iudependently investigat- ed, to have been accomplished by the medicine sold in Canada under the name of Dr. Williams' Piuk Pills for Pale People, must be well known to all Can- adian doctors. Taey;have been pub- lished far and wide. There can be no doubt of their accuracy. The names and addresses of the tjien and women cured are freely pnblisIjed. Their state- ments have been iuveetigated by some of the most important newspapers iu this country and abroad. No oue has ever attempted to dispute the facts. But Canadian doctors have never cared to admit publicly that they have availed themselves of this discovery. Dr. Lap- poni, however, has availed himself of Dr. Williams' disvovery, and has, in his own fearless way, had no hesitation in making the fact publicly known. The following letter, with his signature, freely avows the facts and endorses the value of Dr. Williams' Piuk Pills with an authority ne one will venture to question.

"I certify that I have tried Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills in four cases of the simple anaemia of development. After a few weeks of treatment, the result canto fully up to my expectations. For that reason I ahall not fail in the future to extend the use of this laudable prepar- ation, not only in the treatment of other morbid forms of the category of anae- mia or chlorosis, but also in cases of neurasthenia and the like. (Signed) Dr. Giuseppe Lapponi, Via dei Gracehi 332, Rome. The "simple anaemia of development" referred to by Dr. Lapponi is of course that tired, languid condition of young girls whose development to womauhood is tardy, and whose health, at the period of that development, is often imperilled. His opinion of the value of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills at that time is of the highest scientific authority, and it confirms the many published eases in which anaemia and other diseases of the blood as well as the nervous diseases referred to by Dr. Lapponi, have been curd by these pills. which, it need hardly be !mentioned, owe their efficacy to their power of makitg new blood, and thus acting directly on the digestion and nervous system. In all cases of anaemia, threatened consump- tion, decline, indigestion, kidney disease and all affections of the nerves, as St. Vitus' dance, paralysis and locomotor ataxia, they are commended to the con- fidence of the public, and now that they have received the emphatic endorse- ment of so high a professional authority as Dr. Lapponi, the ttnsted physician of the Vaticau, they will be accepted by the medical and scientific world at their true value. -.—. — HORSE BREEDING. The Maine Farmer remarks: The A.ml.rican farmer cannot afford to ab.ndon horse breediuw, the most pro- fitable industry of the far.cn, with the most urgent demand for all the indus- trial classes of draft and coach horses to conduct the ever-groring business of - our cities. These horses aro the first consideration of every important ommeerciat1 and manufacturing enter- prise and the. ethic( clement of modern successful farming. Tlktt we must have better Horses on the Tarmi is now admitted on all hinds ;end: the city teamsters emphasize their de- mands for more good draft hors -:s by biddtnrj higher prices for every good hors: that conies to market ; that is why the fnr.tners are so eagerly breed- ing, draft horses. The farmers them - elves are b Idly in need of ,more horses, ana especially of better Horses to conduct their farming, as the. new erose' of agriculture reejuires; With more weiglil in the. collar for the suc- cessful farm team. Farmers are. buy- ing carloads of horses in almost every e.ounmun ity. knowledge obtained from experience. Teachers should not get discouraged. We acquire culture by coming together. Pub the beet model we can before the pupils in every way. Mistakes we should gnard against, let, grammar; 2nd, in vocabulary; 3rd, in pronunciation. The convention, which was one of the best attended and most successful the association has ever had, was brought to a close by singing "God Save the King." 'NOTES AND COMMENTS. The Ontario Legislature has passed au act providing for au increase in magis- trates' fees. Hitherto magistrates were not paid anything for trying criminal charges; after this they will be paid $2 for each case which does not last more than two hours, and fifty n +nts an hour for all the time'spent over two hours. For every 200 words of war news that are received in Loudon, Eng., from Tokio, Japan, by wire, e20 is paid. One can hardly conceive the enormous expen- diture that is necessary to keep the world posted on the latest events of the war. The distance from Tokio to Loudon is set at 13,000 miles by the cable route and it takes a message eight hours to make the trip. It is going on five months since th poll tax on Chinese entering this country was increased to five hundred dollars, but so far not a single:immigrant has been reported. When the rate stood at fifty dollars and a hundred dollars the Cbinese entering Canada were for the most part brought in by companies which advanc- ed the poll tax and then were repaid as the arrivals began to earn for themselves in this country. Evidently the $500 rate is absolutely prohibitive. TOWN DIREcTOIIY. BAPTIST CItunoir--Sabbath a -,rine a at 11 a In and 7 p to. Sunday School at 2:30 p m.

"Bananas," answered the boy. "Doz- en of 'em. Want one?" "No, and you can't bring them in here." "Why not?" "It's against the rales. But you can check the package at that window and get it when you come out." "Cost anything to check it?" "Five cents." The boy said he would'nt pay it, and went away. Ton minutes later he reappeared, without the package. "I guess I can go in now, all right," he said. "Hold on. Have yon got those ba- nanas concealed about you?" "Yes, sir; all but the skins. I thro wed them away." Aud there was a griu of triumph on his face as he went through the turu- stile. TRADE WITH memo. As a result of the negotiations set on foot by th Canadian, Postmaster -General during his visit to Mexico last fall the Mexican Government has voted an an- nual subsidy of $50,000 for the establish- ment of a monthly steamship service be- tween the two countries, The Dominion Government will grant a subsidy for the same purpose. Canadian exports to Mexleo Last year were valaed at $105,385 and we imported from Mexico $123.33$ worth of goods, $88,060 worthbeing free.

The proposed legislation which Was unanimously asked for by the. recent live stock convention in. Ottawa to assess all homse coming into Galindo from other countries at a value; of not less than $75 per head, will have, if enacted, a ,timula.ting effect on our export trade to the Nortlt-west, as their principal supply of horses is: front :hc United States. From of- ficial figures neeless than 23,000 head were imported last year. In regard to cattle, in addition' to tilt 9484 hcad given as shipped to the coast markets, in order to arriveat' the consumption of beef at these points, must be added the. local supply and a total supply for about 4months from the North-west, as the Baitisk Columbia ranges hardly ship any beef from February' to the. first of June. Thtt Kootenuiy trade is supplied mainly from the North-west, with the exception of this supply from the coun- try eolith: of Okanagan Lake apd along the boundary. This will bring the exports ':rom British Columbia. ranges to a `_'figure .probably between, 10,000 and 11,000 head: At the coast the dairying busitess has been very good, and the 'price of bu;tcr high; during January and February some of the creameries were paying the patrons 32 cents per lb. of butter fat.
