The response of the people of King- ston to the canvass for subscripfions had been remarkable. Every class, creed and color had contributed a share, and he was proud of the peo ple of this city. The estimated cost of the building to accommodate twenty-two people was $25,000. The government gives twenty per cent. after $20,000 has been expended. The proposal was to take in consumptives, give them three months of tredstment, and . educ ate them as to how to take care of themselves.

The celebrat {ed Charles Dickens died rich, but to | day, the British government was call- ed upon. to pay. $2.50 per week, for the support of his three children in order to keep them out of the poor house, There were life assurance com- panies banks and benefit societies, for the payment of money, but the gov- ernment annuities paid interest - at four per cent, compounded, and the expenses came out of the nation. It was felt by the government, that it would be a good investment, for the country to pay the costs, as it would have a tendency T8 do away with poorhouses, The speaker gave illustrations of the power of mioney to increase with the years, and made a strong appeal for the support of the people in the annuities. | { age, Lectarer-in-Chief, at! enthusp INCOME FOR OLD AGE, AN ADDRESS ON GOVERNMENT Knox Gelatine is a cooking necessity.
