Pay For What You Get.
John Hartnell, hotel plan, Windsor,
the President of the Provincial Hotel-
men's Association, is to increase the
rates at his hotel, and abolish the
commerical rate given to travellers.
Others, he says, will follow his ex-
ample. This question of rates for
hotel accommodation and meals
should be settled upon its merits, and
not upon what is taken in over the
bar. A man should be willing to pay
for his bed and board without getting
a rake-off from. the bar. It is just
possible that if the "bed and board"
was made a paying investment for the
hotel man, he would not be so anxious
about the permission to sell liquor.
Temperance . people, at any rate,
should be averse to having the profits
on the sale of liquor go to help to give
them a square meal for less than a liv-
ing price.

Arrangements have been completed
for the celebration of the 200th anni-
versary of the Presbyterian Church
in the United States in the First Pres-
byterian church, Philadelphia, on
April 21th,
Rev. Dr. Lundy preached Iiduca-
tional sermons in Plattsville on Sun-
day last. Rev. Mr. Edmunds of
Whitechurch took Dr. Gundy's work
in the morning, and Rev. G. Baker, of
Bluevale performed that duty in the
evening.
If the Christian Church in America
could be brought to give one postage
stamp per capita a week to foreign
missions, says a religious paper in the
United States, it would give ten mil-
lion dollars in a year. If it would give
one car fare a week, fifty million dol-
lars. If it would give one dish of ice-
cream a week, a hundred million dol-
lars. If the equivalent of one hour's
work—not at the prices which you get
for your labor, but at the rate of the
most unskilled labor in the country—
a hundred and fifty million dollars.
We now give seven million dollars.
Isn't it too srnall to talk about?
Rev. C. W. Gordon (Ralph Connor)
of Winnipeg, in speaking in Toronto
recently, pointed out that the Church
was not touching the lives of the
men of daily toil as it should. It had
not a grasp of high finance, scientific
research and the political activity of
men. The church, he declared, was
trying to do its work by methods long
outgrown ; it was interested mainly
in itself, its creed, sermon, organiza-
tion, ritual, growth, and not in men
as men. There were hopeful signs,
however, as for instance the church's
attitude towards the relations of
capital and labor, The offer of the
ministers to mediate in the Winnipeg
street car strike was accepted gladly
by both sides after others had failed
to be permitted to do so, and no one
thought they had stepped out of their
places.
Worth Trying.
A farmer in the township of Nelson
informs a well known seed merchant
that while the turnip crop in his
neighborhood was a partial failure the
past season owing to the prevalence
of the turnip louse, he saved his crop
by spraying with common salt and
water, He used an auto sprayer and
a handful of salt to a gallon of water
and two applications were sufficient
to destroy the vermin. If this simple
remedy had been generally known it
would have meant much to many
farmers whose crops were practically
ruined. Another prominent farmer
says :—"I have grown the Aberdeen
yellow turnips for two years. In
these years the turnip louse was very
bad in the section, but my crop, of the
variety named, escaped all damage.
This turnip is a little soft, but it is a
heavy cropper, and, owing to the seed
being so light, half a pound of seed to
the acre is ample."
Good Woman Gone.
On Thursday last, Mrs. Wni. Simp-
son of Ethel passed away, after a brief
illness caused by pneumonia. The
Ethel correspondent of the Brussels
Post gives the following sketch of the
deceased :—"Her maiden name was
Ann Reid and her birthplace was the
Emerald Isle, coining to Canada with
her parents when a child. The family
settled in Stanley township, Huron
Ce., where deceased was united in
marriage to the late Wm. Simpson
about 47 years ago. They made their
home at Varna before locating at
Ethel in 1876 when Mr. Simpson en-
gaged in mercantile life, He died four
years ago. Two children were born
to thein—Lizzie, who passed away at
five years of age, and Thomas P., a
fine young man well known here, who
paid Nature's debt in 1802, leaving two
daughters, Lillian and Netta, who
were loved and cared for by Mr. and
Mrs. Simpson and who will continue
to make their home here. They will
greatly miss their faithful guardian
and will be accorded widespread sym-
pathy in the situation. Mrs. Simpson
was conscious till the last and express-
ed the hope of desiring to be freed
from this life and to depart to be with
her Saviour she so devotedly loved.
She was a faithful member of the
Methodist church for many years and
enjoyed the esteem of a wide circle of
friends. During her illness she was
faithfully waited upon by her niece,
Mrs. Thos. 'Watt of Wingham. The
following are the deceased's sisters
and brothers—Mrs Mills, of Clinton;
Sam, Reid, Brucefiekl ; Andrew Reid,
Wingham ; Mrs. Watt and Mr's. W.
Nicholson, Tacoma, Washington ; Mrs.
R. Patterson of Saskatoon ; Wm. Reid,
Kansas, and Sohn Reid, Huron, South
Dakota. The funeral took place on
Saturday to ilrussels cemetery, The
name of Mrs. Simpson will be very
kindly remembered by many in this
community. ITer adopted daughter,
ATrs, Geo. Inlay of Comins, Mich„
arrived home on Tuesday evening,
and is much gtfeved at the death of
deceased,"
WEST HURON TEACHERS.
(Goderich Signal.)
We are indebted to Inspector Tom
for figures showing the effect the new
legislation respecting salaries of
teachers in rural school sections will
have in the West Huron inspectorate.
In 43 sections the minimum salary
will be $500 ; in 52 sections $450, and
in one section $400. In addition nine
assistant teachers will receive at least
$300 each. Last year these 105 teach-
ers received salaries aggregating $37,-
740. Under the new law the minimum
will be $48,000, averaging an increase
of nearly $100 for each teacher.
In Colborne under the new law two
sections must pay $500 each and eight
sections $150 each, making an aggre-
gate for the township of $4,600. In
1905 these ten sections paid $3,500 in
salaries. The increase of $1,000 will
average $110 for each teacher.
In West Wawanosh four teachers
will receive at least $500 under the
new law, three will receive at least
$450 each, and one at least $400.
These will aggregate $3,750, compared
with $2,750 paid last year. The aver-
age increase will thus be $125.
In Usborne ten teachers last year
received $3,980. Under the new law
nine will receive at least $500 each,
and one, an assistant, $300, an aggre-
gate of $1,800. Here the average in-
crease will be $82 for each teacher.
These are examples which show
that, while there is some variation,
the average results of the new legisla-
tion will be au increase of somewhere
about $100 in the salary of each rural
school teacher in West Huron.

Mrs. Chas. McCrea :—
To Bro. Chas. McCrea and fancily :—
Dear Brother,—On behalf of the
members of L. O. L. No. 462, Belgrave,
we extend to you and your family our
heartfelt sympathy in the great loss
which you have so recently suffered
by the removal of your dear son and
brother by the hand of death. We
are aware that no words which we
might utter can heal the wound. At
the same time we think it only right
to let you know by this feeble testi-
monial that you have the entire sym-
pathy of this lodge, of which he was a
worthy member. We would remind
you, dear brother, though afflictions
in themselves are not joyous, but grie-
vous, yet in due season they yield the
peaceful fruits of righteousness. Many
of our graces likewise cannot thrive or
show themselves to advantage with-
out trials, such as resignation, pa-
tience, meekness, longsuffering. The
strain of your present experience re-
quires you, above all others, to he
humble and watchful, and we trust by
God's grace you are so, and by-and-by
when the clonds of affliction shall have
rolled away forever and the eternal
day of sunshine dawned, you will be
able to say, "He hath done all things
well." Our united prayer, dear bro-
ther, for you and yours, is that the
blessed Saviour, who shed the human
tear and comforted the mourning sis-
tens of Lazarus, may comfort you in
this your time of sorrow.
Afflictions sore long time he bore,
Physicians were in vain;
But God gave ease when He did please
And freed him from his pain.
A precious soul from you has gone ;
A voice you loved is still ;
A place is vacant in your home
Which never can be filled.
He has gone, that faithful son,
To that happy home above,
Where there is no pain and sorrow,
But all is joy and love.
Signed on behalf of the Lodge,
Lancelot Nethery.
