Premier Scott, of Sashatohewan, who has been i11 for eome time, is improving and will go South as soon as his condi- tion allows. It is thought unlikely that he will take part in the next sitting of the Saakatchewau legislature. W. A. Preston, Conservative, has been declared elected to the Ontario Legislature for Port Arthur and Rainy River by a majonty of fifteen, this being the decision of Justices Teetzel and Anglin in contest for the seat bet- ween Preston and Kennedy. The costs of the case, which has run two years, amounted to $15,000. Four Senate vacancies were filled Saturday by the Government.. Hon. Geo. W. Ross, Toronto, and Mr, Robert Beith, Bowmanville, were called to the upper House from. Oatario, and Hon. John Castigate M. P., and Mr. Daniel Gilmer from New Brunswick. The latter was an unsuccessful candidate apnoea Mr. Ganong in Charlotte county at the last general election. There still remain two vacancies from Nova Scotia. Canada's revenue and expenditure statement for thesix months ended December 81 is probably the most satis- factory ever issued, The total receipts on consolidated fund account were $43,694,716, exceeding the expenditure tinder the same heading by a little less than $19,000,000 and giving a ramping over all expenditure combined of ap- proximately $13,000,000. The receipts are utterly $6,000,000 ahead of the amount received atthe same time a year ago, while the ordinary expenditure is more than $1,000,000 less, For December the receipts were $7,172,200, as compared with $6,314,633 for the same month in 1905, while the expenditure was $3,963,- 834 as against $4,376,065. On June 80th the convicts in the peni- tentiaries of Canada numbered 1,439, of whom 197 were total abstainers, 697 temperate and 545 intemperate. The religions denominations were represent- ed among the convict population as fol- lows: --Roman Catholic, 702; Church of England, 295; Methodist, 143; Presby - torten, 186; Baptist, 72; Lutheran, 43; other Christian denominations, 10; Jewish, 7; Mormon, 2; Buddhist, 16; no creed, 13. Of the total number 898 were Clanadian, 217 from Great Britain and Ireland, 16 from other British countries, 137 from the United States and the balance from other foreign countries. �Those ander twenty years of age oon- ; atitute one-eighth of the prison popula- tion. The per capita cost of mainten- ance was: At Kingston, $56:96; St, Vincent de Paul, $52.17; Dorchester, $50.36; Manitoba, $49.90; .British Colum- bia, 4145,15. The lass two items are low- er than for the previous year. During the year 181 paroles were granted to convicts, an increase of 54. The total from all the inetitations was 278. The Liberal party in Ontario is face to face with a situation requiring oare- fat and metered thonght. The party must speedily select a Provincial leader lit snrlcession to Hon. Geo. W. Ross. That successor must be not only a House leader, but a man veho will catch the p. polar imagination and rouse the country when the general election, now probably less than eighteen months in the future, is held. The party andel- paten a forward movement all along the line. Cnsideratione of political ex- pedienoy no less than the traditions of historic Liberalism demand that new ground be broken and new issues raised. Mr. Whitney is making mistakes that are bound to count heavily against him et the pane. The Liberals, with. A pro- per header can again be in the front rank in Ontario. The people are tired of petty Lama and want something that will be of general good to the Province. ¶Lhe organization of the different ridings Must be left in the hands of the workers in the xidinge.

CHURCH NOTES. The Rev, Ezra J. Powell, of Brussels, will occupy the paipit of the Methodist church next Sunday morning and even- ing. Rev. J. G. Brown, Secretary for Foreign Missions for the Baptist Church, will conduct the services in Wingham Baptist Church next Sunday. If every communicant in the Presby- terian Church will give but $2.1$ during this year to the Schemes of the Church, the estimated requirements for 1906 07 for the Western section will be met. This amount will be more than made up by each one contributing the small sum of five cents each Sabbath. The esti- mate for home missions this year is $10,000 in excess of last year, owing to the great developments required to keep in touch with the rapid increase of popu- lation in the Dominion through immigra- tion. Letter from California Mr. D. M. Gordon is in receipt of a very interesting letter from Mr. Duncan Stewart, a former reeident of Wingham, who is now in Los Angeles, Cal., where he is doing well. The family are all en- joying the best of health. John is home from Nome, Alaska, for the winter, but intends returning when navigation opens, Annie, of Winnipeg, is also home on a visit. Donald is in Nome and Margaret is attending Normal School, Mr. Stewart has a good position with the National Lumber Co., which does a a tinniness of about $100,000 a month. They kept about 100 men the year round and run up to 160 in the busy season. They keep a stock of about 13,000,000 feet, and furnish all material for build- ing purposes. The head manager of the sash and door department of this large concern is Mr. David Cline, cousin of Mr, Geo, Cline, Wingham, and Mr. J. A. Cline, Stratford, Regarding Los Angeles, Mr. Stewart says: "This city has a population of about 250,000, and still inoreasing-900 hooses per month; 500 carloads of lumber is Coming in every week, In Pasadena, twelve miles north, there are 42 millionaires on one street. This is a great city in many re- spects. For automobiles it leads, and for telephones beats the world's record. The churches I :ever saw anything like it. We had a visit from Dr. Towler this week; he is fine, and likes this part Well. I built a six -roomed cottage (modern) this summer, which we enjoy Very much. This its the second house I built since coming here. We are hav- ing beautiful weather. I was putting out cabbage abuts and hoeing in the garden. The fanners are putting in their crops, and !ruit of all kinds is Pt endifu1. This city is about 7mi miles by 10, with a well-equipped eleotrio car Ger- rico running through the city to some of the out -lying towvne. There are several large fire -proof buildings being erected, from 7 to 10 stays high. This is a most beautiful climate summer and winter." The alevater owned by A.

That is why they cure common ailments like rheumatism, neuralgia, kidney trouble, headaches and backaches, St. Vitus dance, and the spe- cial ailments that afflict so many women and growing girls.

"Sambo have you got confidence enongh in me to lend me a dollar" ask- ed one colored brother of another. "Plenty of confidence but no dollar," was the reply. There are thousands of Samboe, those who have "plenty of confidence but no dollar," and with every one of them there is something radically wrong, for dollars are as sure to; follow the right kind of confidence as day is to come atter night. Among the numberless good things said by St. Paul, nothing is more signifi- cant than the declaration that "faith is the snbstance of things hoped for, the evidence, which is the substance of things hoped for, that is, something, practical and usable from which things are evolved if proper conditions are com- plied with. Know for a certainty that nothing of value is evolved for one, or added to one unless from the centre of her being, by her aspirations, her resolves, her under- standing of and convenant with her in- most self, her kingdom of heaven, she evolves and draws it unto her. It is disastrous to depend upon anyone or anything outside oneself for happiness and prosperity as it would be to depend upon another to breath for one. --Lida A. Churchill in the February Delineator. Live Stook Markets. Toronto, Jan 15—The run at the City Cattle Market to -day was 70 loads, with 1,200 head of catt1e,900,sheep and lambs, 750 hogs and 56 calves. Trade continues good and active for choice export and butcher cattle. There was every lively demand for good export cattle to -day, one load of choice heavy cattle selling at $5.20, and it was said the market was good for as many loads of the same kind as oould be sent in at the same price. Sheep and Iambs are firmer, with a light run, and prospects are steady. The hog market is again very firm, going up to $6.90, and prospects seem to point to $7 before the present advance movement is through, judging by the strength of the English market.
