Peter McGill, Montreal's of Saturday items most first English L maya, ad for twenty-seven years president of the Bank of Mon . and father of Col. Sydenham McGill, of this city. In an article relating to the intimate connection the poet Bums had with Canada, and the number of valuable Burns' relics in our possession, Hon. Mr. McGill is mentioned ns heading the list of subscribers to the fund for the purchase of Highland Mary's Bible. On another page, an interesting contributor tells of the formation in 1832, of the Montreal Turf Club. and apain ig this versatile man mentioned, this time as one of the club's charter members. Would that there were more all-round gentlemen, of the type of the old school, in Canada to-day. "Three Swallows.'

For Several years in succession the work at the annual exhibition of the Woman's Art Association here, Kas been said to be better than that shown the year previous. Again is the same story to be told, as a visit to the art rooms, over the Y.W.CA, will convince you. All the names familiar to the attendants in former years, are re uted by speci- mens of the summer's work, and sev. eral new ones have pictures which claim praise. Amon these may be | specially mentioned fies Edith Good- win, and Miss Muriel Shortt, the lat- ter showing a bunch of gladioli, the former, among other things, a faith- ful sketch of the toll gate on the Di- vision street road. Mrs. Joseph Power has a few de- parturo--the illumination of coats of amms, delicate in coloring and detail.

Such a law would have a vood effect in Kingston, wheré 'many owners of horses "should be prosccuted for cruelty, in forcing 4 delapidated horse to do heavy drawing. It is also learned from local = weterinaries that there are some injured cows kept and milked by people in this city, one in- stance being that of a cow, with ga broken hip.

The New England tea, at the Y.W. C:A., on Thursday, was all that its promoters promised. Everything was delicious, and everything was typical. Tea tables, at which four could sit, were set in the gymnasiuine and in the association's room upstairs. Down below yellow California poppies fes- tooned walls and chandeliers, and vel- low flowered Japanese table napkins carried out the idea. Upstairs the color scheme was red, rec poppies, red sorcens, red shades: Mean cards were red, and all was warm and pleasant. The Best.
