B., that one realizes the enormous quantities of sugar consumed by the people of to-day. Canada has a population approaching eight million. The Atlantic Refineries have a capacity of one million pounds of refined sugar a day, thus this new and up- to-date plant could supply one-eighth of a pound of LANTip SUGAR per day for every man, woman and child in the Dominion. Dominion. Only those who have been thro' a modern refinery like this one in St. John can appreciate the scrupulous cleanliness of every detail of the process of converting converting raw sugar into the sparkling, diamondlike diamondlike granules of LANTIC SUGAR. It comes to Madame Housewife in attractive fcardboard cartons, containing two and five pounds of sugar, (and the weights are guaranteed) and in bags of io, 20 and 100 pounds. Thesè packages are filled and weighed by automatic machinery, so that -the sugar is never touched by hand from the time it Comes in the raw state from the Southern sugar cane fields until the packagés are opened in the home. This is a point well worth remembering, now that the preserving season is soon to open, when pire sugar will be in great dérriand for putting up delicious homemide pre^ servesjjàms and jellies. - The newly elected officers of Hampton Branch of Women's Institute are as follows follows : President--Mrs. Levi Niddery; Vice Pres.--Mrs. Alvin Peters; Sec.-Treas.-- : I Mrs. C.

Bowmanville and vicin'ty will observe Pay-Up Week from Monday, May 31st to Monday, June 7th inclusive in which all persons owing small accounts are asked to settle them next week--and large ones if they can. If this request is universally observed there will be many smiling faces and happy hearts. The philosophy of the plan isisimply this ; that by paying vour bills, the other fellow is enabled to" pay his, ar.d so on in a sort of endless chain, which, finally comes around to you again, with you out of debt and no one owing you. Thus all are quits, the commercial skies are clear, and everybody feels better. In a former experiment over $40,000 in old accounts changed hands, and the Iiqu da-. tion this year promises to be a financial tidal wave. The idea of a "pay-up" week" is excellent and should be pushed àlongs The wider it extends, the more sound and Stable will be the business of this country, says the Windsor Record. Safety First !
