Dual report of the Presbyterial \'!'omen's
Foreign Missionary a ciety was sub-
mitted, showing gratifying jemmiesin born con tri hu tions and membership,
and was disposed of be the following
motion : The Presbytery hereby ex-
press their high appreciation of the self
a- do,ial end work of the members of the
n Women's Foreign Mission 00cietiee
ng within their }mends, and their gratitude
to God for the sitcoms which had
r crowned their labors during the past
year They eeper,ially record their
eatisfactioo with the increase of con•
tributione, the amount of which has
been considerably du excess of that of
a the preceding year. They also express
their belief that the growing interest in
foreign missions throughout the church
is largely duo to their efforts and pray
that the divine blessing may richly
attend all their future efforts too�}})romote
this great work." Rev. Dr. Fletcher,
e of Hamilton, Was nominated for mod -
✓ erator of next assembly. Mr, MsoKen-

Tile Shooting 9f an Editor.
Tho New York livening Poet fres th
following to say regarding the merle
of an editor in South Carolina : " Th
shooting of Editor Gonzales by Lieute,:
ant•Governor Tilltnan, at Columbia, i
regat•ded as atrocious even for Sout1
t held ui Kippers on March 10th at 10a,m.
Carolinian standards, since prornp
measures had to be taken to prevent
the lynching of the prisoner, What i
wanted next is a fair trial of 'I`illma
and a legal punishment—execution by
het.ging if Gonzales dies, intprieonulen,
for a term of years if lie recovers. Be
we doubt whether either penalty wil
be inflicted, Several years ago the mos
distinguished editor in the state, a mar
of high character, was assassinated in
Charleston to broad daylight by a teat
whose degraded propensities had beet
interfered with by the editor, not in
the columns of his newspaper, but in
the comae of his duty as a citizen
The assaseiu received no adequate tun
ishment, i1 this murderer had been
hanged, as he richly deserved to bo
Gonzales would probably have been
able to walk the streets of Columbia
without danger of faking by a coward
shot, Dud Tillman would not now be in
need of protection against lynchers, A
passenger in the care from Louisville to
New Orleans, in the month of November
last, buying newspapers from place tq
place, counted six violent deaths along
hie route, all occurring in a single day.
And yet mane think we are peculiarly
ht to take charge of the destinies O
sen» •harharou4 people on the other side
of the globe, and lead them into the
ways of civilized life."
TIF. Merl* of Efficiency.
It is one of the triumphs of life on
this continent that men can rise by
their own endeavors to whatever poli
time their talents can command, \Ve
are all, as yet, in one stratum es re
gards leave to profit by ability end op
portunity, The lite of Abram Stevens
Hewitt, who died in New York the
other day, furnished a striking example
of what is possible to .capable and
aggressive men in the conditions in
which we live. He WES born in a to
cabin of one Story, and, before lie could
begin to cut a figure in the world, had
to break out of the environment in
which poverty confined him, and in
whioh his energies had little scope,
Some opportunitiep he had for obtain-
ing instruction, and, making the most
of them, he worked his way through
college, coming out at the head after a
course hi which his health several
times gave way to the double strain of
study and snaking a living. While a
college teacher, he studied law. After
his examinations had been safely pass-
ed, his eyesight failed, and in such wise
that the practice .1 law became all but
out of the question, He abandoned the
law and went into hilliness. He sus-
caoded, became a leader and a power in
the business world of New York, a
director nn the boards of a dozen rail-
ways, a member of congress and mayor
of New York. His career was remark-
ably successful, as viewed from the
standpoint of the young man starting
out in life, but it was only one of
thousands that are offered to the con-
templation and affect the imagination
of the young men who find themselves
planted by Providence in face of the
boundless opportunities afforded by the
life of this new continent, of which a
choice may be made at will by thee
who take pains to qualify themselves
by becoming efficient,

Presbytery of Huron
The Presbytery of Huron met in
Goderich on Tuesday of last week.
Rev, F. H. Larkin, of Seaforth, was
appointed moderator for the ensuing
six months. Elders commissions were
celled for, and the roll for the year
made up. Session records were exam-
ined and attested. It was agreed to ask
the assembly's augmentation committee
for supplements, as follows : For Grand
Bend and Corbett, $t00; for I0eeburn
and Union church, $100, It was also
decided to apply for $50 for each of the
charges of Varna and Blake, and Bay-
field and Bethany, and Rev. E. A.
Sewers was appointed to visit the for-
mer charge, and Mr, McLennan the
latter, for the purpose of inducing them
to snake such an increase in the minis-
ter's stipends as will raise thein to the
mimimum, including the sem to be
asked from the assemble committee,
Rev. M. MacKenzie, of Ilonan, China,
being present, was invited to sit and
deliberate. The following motion was
unanimously passed, with regard to the
present condition of the temperance
question : "Inasmuch as the Presby-
tery'
resbytery' in a former resolution, urged upon
the people to s pport the Liquor Act
submitted on December 4th last, it
would now put on record ire pleasure at
the very large vote cast in fever of tha
act. The presbytery is of the opinion
that the government is now justified in
re -introducing and supporting the net,
and at any rate that such legislation be
enacted as will close the bar, and do
away with the treating system; and
meanwhile that license commissioners
be urged to materially reduce the num-
ber of licenses. And the Presbytery
hopes that all the friends of temperance
will give such careful consideration to
the matter as will secure the full bene-
fit of the vote and make for the further
adyanceoaeut of the *use." Trhe an -

If You Value Kitchen Time and Toil
Here is True Rrltlinletic of Food Value.
We don't cool: our food from mere habit; we cook it to release its strength
and nutriment, 00 that i; earl be digested. The food that releases most strength
with least cooking is therefore the most valuable. There are foods which can be
cookiad in less time than Quaker Oats, but they do not give so much good to tate
body, even in proportion to the time it takes to prepare them.
There are many, foods, too, that must be cooked longer than
QUAKER OATS
but there is no food that gives eo much strength sn3 eo much flesh, blood anti
bone, either with short seeking or long cooking, as Quaker Oats givee when it in
cooked twenty minutes. Quaker Oats not only gives most for the amount of
Money, but most for the 04740(4411 of time.
S. 9ERRINGTON, BLYTH
county of Huron, at Clinton, and my
object in writing this is to bring the
institution more before the public. I
visited the hospital on the 5th of this
month, and ryas surprised and delighted
to learn that we hod 511011 a building
for the accgmutodation of the public
and the profession. '1'he hospital is
built of brick, and is conveniently aint-
ered. It contains about 20 rooms in all,
the greater ntunber of them being fitted
up as private wards. The welds are of
convenient size and are neatly and com-
fortably furl;ielled. The operating room
is one of the main features of the. build.
ing, being large and well lighted, both
with windowe and skylight. The floors
are finished in hardwood, It contain,
marble washstands with nickel elated
Imps, with a plentiful supply of hot and
cold water, hard and emit, with every-
thing complete, The waile of the wards
are tastefully painted and decorated,
while the floors are covered with hand-
some rugs, giving the rooms chef-eful
appearance. There are five nurses in
attendance, beside the matron. There
were three major operations at the hos-
pital on the day that I Visited it, my
own patient being one of the cases
operated on, On the following day
there were two difficult operations.
This number on two successive days is
not a usual occurrence, but nevertheless
a great many good operations are done
at the Clinton hospital, and perhaps
quite s9 many as are done at county
hospitals receiving government aid.
So far only surgical cases have been
treated at the hospital, but provisions
are being made for receiving and treat-
ing medical cases other than tubercu-
losis. Dr. Gunn is surgeon -in -chief of
the hospital, and himself and Dr. Shaw
look after the after -treatment of the
patients. Other doctors, hewevor, avail
themselves of the convenience of tito
hospital, and operate there. To main-
tain it hospital like this 13 an ex-
pensive undertaking, and I think is a
scheme that should comtyend itself to
the eupport of the county council as.
wet] as to the citiablis of Clinton and
the public generally, A county hos-
pital was spoken of, to bo erected in
Goderich, and I think the county coun-
cil offered a grant of $1000 toward its
maintenance. Instead, could not a
grant ho given the one that has already
a reputation, and whiph is more cen-
trally located; tieing decidedly Dtore
convenient to ail parts at the county,"
