Women's Institute The regular meeting of the \\'omen's institute was held in the Reading Room of the Town Hall on Friday last. The attendance was large from both town and country.

The society at this meeting added several new members to their number. Hicks Forecasts for March. Careful students of our forecasts will not forget that our little globe passes a magneto -electric crisis on and about ,March the 11th each year. This fact always increases the probabilities of stormy, tidal waves and seismic per- turbations about this time. Severe boreal storms with a Starch cold wave need not surmise any one from about the 11th to the lit h. It roust be remembered that the vet. - nal equinoctial period extends over all this month, and that storm conditions may rise at al t any time, even out- side of the regular storm periods. But the most pronounced and general dis- turbances will liaise, and reach their eul►ninating climaxes, during these regular periods. The 15th t, the lith will bring a marked storm period, cul• urinating in low bat'etneter, rising temperature and general store) con- ditions, ending in wide meas of rain and snow. Another high barometer and March cold wave may suddenly slip in from the northwest from about the 17th to the loth, but it will give way as suddenly as it cause, and the most general and violent storm condi- tions of the month will appear during the storm period immediately follow- ing. Death of Mrs- Russell. Death on Saturday last removed an- other of our oldest citizens in the per - sou of Agnes Lamb, relict of the late James Russell, at the age of 76 years. Thr deceased wits a victim of paralysis. having first s,itTeted a stroke eloot four years ago, followed by another some time later and the third on Thursday mnrnir.g last from which she never rallied, passing peacefully away on Saturday last and she now sleeps the eternal sleep. Mrs. Russell was born in ('arleick, Lanarkshire, Scotland, and was rnarried to her late husband in the old land. About 50 years ago she emigrated to Canada, and the greater part of her life was spent in the Comity of Huron, first residing in the township of Hay, and Afterwardsin the township of Uetorne. where she remained until about three years ago, when she moved to town with her son, Mr. Thus. Rowell. She was predeceased by her aged partner about seven years. Mrs. Russell was of a gentle, amiable and kindly dis- position, a good wife and mother, and et true friend and was very highly es- teemed by all who had the pleasure of her acquaintance. She was et eonsis- tent member of the Presbyterian Church and in the calor security of perfect faith in her Saviour's merits passed to her eternal rest. She is sur- vived by a farnilvof two sons, Thomas, of town, and John, of California, loth of whom have the sympathy of their many friends. Thr funeral took place to the Exeter cemetery on Monday.

Special sermons were preach- ed on the work of the British and Foreign Bible Society. The first cen- tury of its operations has just closed and the results are such as to fill the heart of every Christian with grati- tude to God. In 1804 there were in all the world about 4 million copies of the Word of God. In the last 100 years this Society has issued 180 mil- lion copies of the Bible, in whole or in part, in 378 different languages and dialects. It is the great source which supplies the Missionaries of the differ- ent churches with Bibles for distribu- tion in foreign lands. The object of the Society is to give to every person in the world a copy of the Wend of God in his own language. Such an object should meet with the hearty support of all church nieurlers. Rev. Mr. McNair's Evangelistic Work. Mr. and Mrs. :McNair, of H:Intiltnlr. Evangelists, will begin revival services in the James street Methodist church, Exeter, on Wednesday evening, March 8th. Continuing the comment on the evangelistic work in Dorchester firma last week's issue the article quoted goes on to say:— "The work which has been in progress for about ,t rnnnth, has been carried on by Rev. T. R. Mc- Nair and wife, and although an elec- tion contest has been in progress, and there has been some very cold and un- favorable weather, the attendance has been good, and a deep interest has been manifested in the meetings throughout. Mr. McNair is a man of power and his presentations of divine truth have been forceful and convin- cing. There is nothing new or sensa- tional in his methods, but he preaches the Gospel with an earnestness and persuasiveness that carries conviction to the hearta and minds of his hearers. Few, indeed, could listen to his ser- mons without resolving to lead a nobler and better life. Energetic and zealous as have been Mr. and Mrs. Mc- Nair's labors in the meetings to win souls, they have not depended alto- gether on these means. but they have made it a point to visit as many of the people as they could in their houses, and it is owing to this personal work on their part that many have been brought out and have been savingly converted. Mr. McNair's strong ar- raignment of the rnodetn dance, the theater and other popular nrrtlisements have undoubtedly had a gond effect on the young people of the community. Mrs. McNair possesses is clear, strong musical voice. and her sweet singing of Gospel hymns, her earnest supplica- tions at the throne of grace. and her tender pleadings with sinners to come to Christ, have aided greatly in the success of the meetings. Aided by the influence of the Divine Spirit and the hearty cooperation of the pastor and people of tate church, as es result of their faithful labors, great and, we hope. lasting good has been done. Be- lievers have leen strengthened and some who were dead in trespasses and in sins have been led into the light and liberty of God. By their holy zeal and labors of loveamonget u9, Mr. and Mrs. McNair have won the affection and esteem of the whole community, end our prayers and sympathy will follow them in whatever part of thf• Master's vinevnrd they may be called to later in the future.
