THE almost illimitable acreage of Northern Coterie, thousands of acres of it A r fauning lands, is a loud call to the Provincial Government to deal gen- erously, yet carefully but optimistically with it. Wonderful progress is no'ice- able in the past so years and yet the fringe hos scarcely been touched- Boost Northern Coterie should be the' slogan. IF "a man is as young as he feels" the passing years don't come into the count and the Art of "growing old gracefully" might be studied with good effect. 2 noticeable examples are R 13. Angus.

GARFIELD'S execution at Woodstock, for cool, deliberate murder, should be a loud call to young men to cut out a dis solute life and make the world the bet- ter of living.

Trip to Burmuda One of Motherwell's former girls, Mrs. H. 0. Durham, of Toronto, sends the following interesting account of the trip taken by her and her husband to the island of Bermuda to St. Marys Journal -Argus :— DEAR SIR — When our reservations had been made for return passage to Bermuda, and I realized we were about to start, I sort of wondered, after having been favored with the lovely Winter that was just about over, and the joyful calls ofthe robin and blackbirds were again to be beard, why we should be leaving home at this glad time of the year, but satisfied myself with the thought that a little change of scene now and then renews life in the beet of men. On the evening of the 17th of March we left Toronto by sleeper and awoke next morning to find the genes green on the banks of the beautiful Hudson river while wending our way into New York. As we neared, tin apart- ment houses became more in number and higher, and with the begrirnmed pillows and bedding hanging out, of the windows for air, and washings hung high across the streets and on fire escapee, we got a little in- sight into the manner in which the multitudes in very large cities have t0 exist. Soon we entered a long, dark tunnel, From which we emerged at. the Grand Cen- tral Station, in the heart of the city, and were at once impressed with the ease in which passengers were able to alight froth the train on the level. The platfot rue are situated so that the train steps are fully coneealed from the public. We just had to walk a little way to the taxi cab exit and take out turn in getting into one of the continual stream of "White land }Macke," in whieh we were rushed to the Pennsylvania Rotel, dodging in and out of what seemed Le us a seat.h- ing !mass of` humanity and motets. Everybody seemed to be running, yet to our suepriee we dill not see one ac- cident. Ms'. Durham's mother and brother, Dr, Jas. R. Durham, of Warr - Vet, Pa.,met u After t luncheon s at the hotel. we had a swell motor trim oil which we saw the wild and excited faces and heard the high pitched voices of the. notorious Wall Street Curb'gpmblers, who blocked the Street from side to side, making an awful te4080e••iN*•011009w•0t 0r1•r • 3 thwer 'rices... . p i•I • r ••e • • • • Royal Household F1 Flour $S 60 0 • • 0 • Bran 1 90 Shorts 2 00 Oatmeal per cwt. 3 75 Mangold Seed lb. 60 i• • Woodhouse's Invigorator• • Per Poultry and other Live •Stock is the very thing • • needed, 0 Fresh Garden Seeds. 0• • • •Wr Jt McCracken3 • • picture in our minds, of the foolish nese of some men ; Broadway, on which every known automobile 0o. bas a place 50 business ; some of the big stores and prominent buildings, and lastly, out Riverside Drive, by the Grant Monument and Columbia.

Evidently the owners do slot bother much about outside ap- pealance. as they only live in. New York a short dose hi Autumn, and then to warmer climates for Winter, and later to their c0untey estates, On March 10th, we set sail Lot Ber- muda and had a glorious 8 hour trip aoross the briny deep. Weather was ideal and we did not see one person i11 on board. We were roused by the steward about 0 80 Lhe last morning, just as rhe pilot was being taken 011 to guide us through the socks and narrow eliannels, as we neared St, David's Lixht. at the extreme North Rost of the Island, so that we might enjoy the beautiful natural scenery, studded with snow white homes, dur- ing the lain 2 liners of the trip, as we passed along by St. George, through the Narrows, in and nut atnongswt su,aller islands, similar to those in the Nnrth Channel, as we skirted the shore all the way down to Hamilton. Upon arrival on shore, we hired a cerclage, he which we were driven back iu the direction we had come, a distaare of about 7 miles, midst oleanders all in bloom on either side, over a portion of the splendid roads of dazzling white that were made and sawed through the coral hills, some hundreds of years by convicts, to out quarters in "Seaward," on the beach at Bailey's Bay. Bermuda is just a coral mountain in the sea, about 15,000 feet in height, and this beautiful semi -tropical little Paradine in which we ate rusticating is on the top. There are SOo islands and rocky projections, on which there are only abont10,000 acres of land al- together, and the most hnpor.tent islands ate ell joined by bridges and a canseway. It is in shape about like unto the bony part of a roan's arm and hand, and St. George is situated at the top, Hamilton on the thumb, and we are located somewhere on the wrist. The distance (torn end to end is only about 25 miles. Old time cat- riages, driven mostly by colored people, bicycles and the stage that runs from post to post at intervals are the only inland manner of convey- ance. The houses are all built of coral. When a person wants to make a home, he just saws the shingles for the roof and the blocks for the walls out of a hole in his lot that he finds mist suite le fora cistern, and builds bis house, which is a very great ad- vautage in these days of high cost. The coral formation of this 'eland is very porous, therefore wherever there is either a low spot or a grotto, the salt water appears and rises and frills with the tide. The coustant wearing of the water ie certain utdetgrountl passages hes formed some very world - et fill caves. hung with stalacitites so grand and marvellous in form and dainty shepinge that one can only look on with admiration beyond words, while going frotn room to room on pontoon bridges and think- ing of the welds of the Psalmist: "The firmament sheweth His handi- works." After one has seen these caves and taken ,incise to the seeping of the salt water though the coral rocks. he can readily see why rain water is the only fresh water to be lead for nee in the homes, It is con- tained in splendid cement cisterns and because of the absence of smoke itis as clear as spring water and is most wholesome. We have had many lovely drives midst natural beauty ht netive red cedar and coral rocks, fields of Easter lilies and fresh vegetablee and beart11ful homes, each one of the latter an individual picture of snow white loveliness, set hock from the road in most. remits, midst cedar and various other trees, emonget which are to he Been, huge obber trees, the pride of Italia, now covered with to lilac -like sweet scented blossom, after whicb follows the berry that is 9" solei fawn ed for use in Airings of beads ; cnye] poinciana and Christmas poinsetta Moth looking lovely in the calm of their Summer rest —1 he latter still tipped with ecarlrt ; calabash ; an occasional orange I,ee ; monkey puzzle ; sago and date palms and the graciou'r cand.•labra caotns. i3elfuti- ful hibiscus in red and pink, roses iri Manny shades, hooey -suckle, Matter lilies, begonias, geraniums and all aorta of annuals are in bloom in the beds and timeline, and meet every kitchen garden hes a patch rif banana plante a,,,1 a few paw -paw [reel, We have had bana.ta8 every day in some shape lir foal, and paw -pew salad several tinme from "Seaward" gat den > 1 •r' and ripe native fresh slaw lei tee also I tornatoes.
