This appeal was read to the members of the St. George's brothers' meetings at one of their weekly gatherings in St. George's hall at the beginning of Lent and the mothers were asked if they would as a lenten offering make the fittings and furnishings for two beds in this hospital. Mast promptly and generously did the members respond to the appeal and albeit they are of those whose time is already well filled with hard and laborious tasks, the work was all taken up and distributed in one week. A week ago, all was brought back neatly and beautifully done. It consists of 24 sheets, 12 draw-sheels, 12 pillow-slips, 6 nightgowns, 2 bedspreads, 2 flannel bed-jackets and 2 dressing gowns. Much of the work has heen done by those too poor to afford themselves a sewing machine and the beautifully = hem- med hand sewn seams on the long sheets bear eloquent testimony to the true spirit of charity and self- sacrificing labour implanted in the hearts of the members of St. George's mothers' meetings. Kind To Russian Stranger. A young Russian, named Evan Noveck, who came to Kingston on Wednesday, to work in the feldspar mines at Bedford, was suffering with a severe attack of 'chills and fever as a result of catching cold on the boat coming across the ocean. He was without money and friends, and as fortune would have it, he fell in with good-hearted Karl Goldman. The young stranger could noi speak a word of English, so Karl decided to take him to the general hospital. The lad was about eighteen years old, and rather under size. His peculiar Russian dress, coupled with his sad plight, made him the centre of interest to a number of people.

This is why my Glasses give satisfaction to the people of should Take a Lesson From the Gananoque Battery. Last year the 5th field battery, of Kingston district, went to camp at Petawawa much under strength. less than thirty horses, it seems, were on hand when the battery left, and the required number had to be hired at Pembroke. Whether this likes battery work, or whatever is the cause of the weak battery, when there should be one of the hest in the pro vince, with the permanent instruction- al force right in Kingstom, is not known, but the Gananoque correspond ence tells that Major Russell Britton already has his men of the Sth hat tery drilling at the new Gananoque armourks, in preparation for the Pela- wawa campin June. There is no ap- parent sign of the organization of the oth battery, which, in the old days used to be a very warlike corps, It is said that men who own horses will not take them to camp for ¥1 a day. It seems that at the Toronto and Ottawa camps last year, horses were paid for at the rate of $1.50 a day. Here, however, the highest of fered this spring is $1.25 a day. Un- less the figure is raised, the local bat tery may go to camp again under strength. THE LATE PETER M. LOBBAN Passed Away in General Hospital on Wednesday Afternoon. The death occurred at the general hospital, on Wednesday afternoon, of Peter Mackay Lobban, third son of the late John Lobban, Huntly, Aber- deenshire, Scotland.
