The beauty and grandeur of our falls in sum- mer, when so many come from far and near to view it, is of course pleasing when the summer heat and green jjrass, rocks and tumbling waters are displaying themselves at that season of tha year, but we beg to inform any who like to be- hold a scene that i* an exact contrast, when, especially this winter there hare been so many thaws and froets and not too much suow, to be able to view the beauty from all sides the grandeur of the scene is well worthy uf mention.

Ceylon A Letter From Mrs. Pickell Markets!.-, Feb. .'5, l'J13 Editor Advance : Dear Sir, Since your issue of The Advance of Jan. 16, L-I niiiiniiiis the article re Eugenia Falls, which you mude so attractive by your beautiful illustration?, _ I have received many very interesting le ters from far and nesr. This shows how wide your circulation uj. Thete letters contain much that is complimentary to your paper and myself. Ths leading thought they bring out is How our brave pioneer boys went out into the world and made good. One in his letter says, " We had nothing to lose, and everything to yain. ' A state bank president writes : " I was born at Eugenia ;md spent my early manhood there. You were my first teacher in the little log school house by the side of the road, near the spiing, That war fifty yeais ago." A minister in Michigan writes : 'Mrs. Pickell, I thauk you from my heart for your word picture of old Eugenia Falls. Seventeen years ago my wife aud I vis- ited Eugenia. Together we descended the stain>, together we climbed th hill, and together we stood at Sloan's dam, drinking in the beauty of it all till the western sun showed us we must go. and, like Joshua, we felt the day was too short." A gentleman in Toronto writes : "When I first saw the beautiful pano- ramathe gulch and falls presented, it was a case of love at tint sight." Many more quotatians from letter^ could be given did time and space per- mit, from merchant men, newspaper men, etc. Does it not teem a p'.ty that such a beauty spot in nature has not been preserved in i's primitive condition.' Honour ii due our Artemesia boys who, though far away, retain tender memories of the days when they were among us. Equal honour to the brave boys who re- mained at home ami took up the work that fell from the toil-worn hands of their fathers and made the township what it is. -E. A. PICKELL.

We often hear complaints of excessive express rate, and high charges for postal transmission, but it ix a question, after all, if cheap rates by parcel post, or otherwise is not going to be detrimental to all country towns. As it is the big city departmental stores are .sending out more goods to tho country towns and villages than some of tho good stores that help to pay the taxes and support the schools, churches and other institutions. It stems to only a matter of time till il I the smaller places will be crushed out of existeiicc.and once a monopoly is secured the consumer -will pay the piper. The big concerns are barking for reduced transportation, and we'ro all Inn-king with them. We may yet find that we'll pay too dear for our whistle. Durham Chronicle.
