PUBLISHER ASDPROPRIETOP THURSDAY, DEO. 2S, 1905. NOTES AND COMMENTS. A cable from Paris, France, says Hon Raymond Prefontaiue, Canadian Minis• ter of Marine and Fisheries, died in Paris at 9 o'clock. Christmas evening. No particulars. The disease from which he died was angina, which is one of the most paiufnl and agonizing diseases which can be suffered. It is nccompath• ied by a feeling of iwpendiug death. It is always due to heart disease. Mr. Prefontaiue left Canada some four weeks ago and had been in England in company with Hon. Mr. Lemieux, ar- ranging with the naval authorities the details of a scheme to establish a naval reserve in Canada, and for the taking over of the docks at Esgnimalt and Hal- ifax. The total exports of Canada for the five menthe ending November 30 of the current fiscal year ware greater by five millions than the total exports for the whole of the fiscal year 1805 The in- crease in domestic exports for the five months over the same period of last year was in round figures $18,000,000, and the gain in the aggregate trade for the five months was 520,000,000. These figures denote the remarkable expansion that has taken place in the trade of Canada in the last decade, and which, to quote a time -worn expression, is still going for- ward by leaps and bounds. Taking the several items in the exports, it will be been that during the five months agricul- tural products increased by ten millions, manufactured artieles by one million, animals and their products by four mil- lions and a half, and fisheries by about two millions. Exports of products of the mine and of rhe forest remained stationary. The gain the importation of free goods is only about half a million, whereas duitable goods show a better- ment of about seven and a half millions. CHURCH NOTES. There will be no watch -night service on New Year's eve this year at St. Paul's Church Instead, there will be au ap- propriate service at the regular hoar on Sunday evening with a special sermon to young men. The cestral committee, composed of representatives from the Presbyterian, Methodist and Congregational churches throughout the Dominion has agreed upon a code of doctrines that will unify the three denominations into one great, church, which it is proposed should be known as"The United Church of Cana- da." A series of sermons will be began next Sabbath evening in the Baptist Church which ought to interest and profit all young men. Some of the snbjects are:.; "The General Problem of Man," "The Young Man in Sports," "In Society," "The Young Man's Choice." All are cordially invited, but young mea partic- ularly so. Come and let us help you. Among the candidates who received ordination on Thursday last, (St. r Thomas Day) at St. Alban's Cathedral, Toronto, was one of Wingham's old boys, Arthur O. Cummer, who has charge of the mission of Pickering in To- ronto Diocese. He began his ministerial work in 1899, under the Rev. A. B. Farney, who was then incumbent at Gorrie. GLE\A\N.t . An old resident of this section passed away on Sunday last in the person of Jhristena Henderson, relict of the late Tames Wallace, aged SO years and 2 months. Deceased was among the iioneers of the township ani had a large ;ircle of friends. The funeral took place Tuesday afternoon from the residence of her son, D. H. Wallace to the Wing - awn cemetery.

This is absurd. On the coutrsry the highest education received by the town pupils is only rendered possible by the admission of county pupils. The Legislature fixes the amount the County must pay ane this amount is never less than the total cost of the maintenance of county pupils. For instance If the school costs $4000 per year and the county pu- pils are 40 per cent. of the whole numb- er attending the school then the county must provide 40 per cent. of $4000 in fet s and grants combined towards its main- tenance. We would require just as many teachers, as large a school and as great an expenditure to teach the full High School course to our town pupils alone. The ;amount paid by the county lighteus the burden and makes it pos- sible for us to maintain the school. County grant St. Mary's $36.12 County grant Walkerton $24.05 Couuty grant Listowel $41.32 The total grants foot up $6195 28 of this amount. Wingham tax payers pay their share and have bean annually for a generation. Why should we LOC have a S lhool of our own and have a portion of this spent in our own town. The County paid Hairiston this year $577 67 for maintenance of Howick pupils most of whom would have attended a High School here had we one.

LOTHROP BY LADY HENRY SOMERSET A Leader in British Philanthropic Work Lady Henry Somerset, president of the British Temperance Women's Association, and a leader in all philanthropic and social reform work, is a mighty influence for good, and has consecrated herself and her fortune to the service of humanity. She was born in England, the daughter of Earl Somers, for thirty years a member of the House of Lords and a man of noble charac- ter, who cared little for society, but spent his time in travel and scientific research. Ruskin, Garibaldi and Mazzini were his closest friends. He fell in love with the lady who became his wife through a portrait by Watts ex- hibited in London. It appealed to him as no living or pictured woman ever had; he sought the original, and after a romantic courtship, married her. Lacey Isabel, later Lady Somerset, was born in 1851, and even in the days of her girlhood found in social questions a theme or deep interest and was greatly influenced by the works of John Stuart Mill. After her presentation at Court she was caught in the social whirl and for years was a lady of fashion and pleasure, from which the present earnest, ,self-denying and en- thusiastic worker for humanity was evolved in the days of sorrow, stiffer- ing and unhappiness through which she was soon to pass. When she was twenty-one she vias married to Lord Henry Somerset, second son of the Duke of Beaufort. The serious side of an unfortunate mar- ried life turned her mind to higher things; she helped those who needed it and was an angel of mercy and inspiration. She was interested in Biblical criticism, and in the maze of disputes and sophistries of many writers. One day while walking and thinking in her garden, she even doubted the exist- ence of God. Then it seemed to her as if she heard an actual voice speaking to her very soul: "Act as if I were, and thou shalt know that I am." Vividly impressed she went to her room, read her Bible, and in the morning tolti her friends she was going to retire from the world for a time. Taking her boy she went to Eastnor Castle, a beautiful place in the Malvern Hills, and fought out her battle with the Bible, realized her destiny, and con- scious of the sins, shams and shallows of society, determined to give her strength to helping the world. With the poor at her own gates she started a temperance society, and gave an address in the school -room. Later she held Bible meetings in the billiard -room of the Castle, and thus began an unselfish work for good that has literally encircled the world in its influence and inspiration.
