J-- It has been decided that the final meeting of the Kingston Methodist district 'will take place in Ganano- que on Tuesday, May 12th, and Wed- nesday, May 13th. The ministerial session will be held on Tuesday, and the general meeting will take place in Grace church the following day. Rev. G. A. Sisco, pastor of Catara- qui Methodist church, has been ask- ed to give the address on Wednesday evening. Rev. W. H. Raney, the chairman of the district, when speaking to the Whig, stated that it was very Iim- portant that all matters pertaining to the churches be finally wound up as early in May as possible, so that the schedule can be made out in feadiness for the district meeting. 'As the Methodist church will enter the United church on June 10th, this is the last time the Methodists of the Kingston district will meet together to transact business. The meeting of the Montreal con- ference takes place 'in Montreal the last week in May. The stationing committee meets on Monday, May 26th, and the general sessions of the conference open on the 28th, and will continue over the week-end. This will also be the last meeting of the Montreal Methodist Confer- ence. Up until the present time only two ministers on the Kingston district are moving this year. Rev, Dr. R. H. Bell, of Sydenham, {is going to Young church, Winnipeg, and Rev. G. A. Sisco has been invited to Ren- frew. The latter has accepted the invitation, pending the decision of the stationing committee. It is rum- ored that there may be a couple of other changes in the district, but up until the present time the chairman has not received any definite infor- mation. The three last weeks of May will certainly be busy ones for the Meth- odists in the Kingston district, as in addition to the district meeting and the Montreal conference, the branch meeting of the Women's Missionary Soclety is to take place in Kingston in Sydenham street church, com- mencing the 19th of May, and last- ing until the evening of the 21st.

As the guests arrived they were received at the door by Miss Vina Leadbeater, cou- sin of the bride. At eight o'clock fifty guests sat down to the tables beautifully decorated with carna- tions, tulips and Easter lillies and partook of a sumptuous supper serv- ed by Misses Vina Leadbeater, Mil- dred Leadbeater, Mary Moorhead, and Percy Dormer. The centre of the table was a scene of admiration where a wedding cake made by the bride's grandmother, who is seventy- eight years of age, was most beau- tifully trimmed. The many friends departed about one o'clock, leaving behind them heartiest congratula- tions and many lovely, presents. Because they were rare and valu- able, glass bottles frequently were mentioned in the wills of the Ameri- can pioneers. inevitable 'Why not guard again Ua by ar See | Tired Nerves life brings a terrible strain on woman's delicate nervous system. , The continuous whirl of social life, charitable church work, together with all the cares of home and entail a burden that the nerves cannot hear. : Sooner or later physical bankruptcy must come and the a break-d of rest and health and strength with the use of biting us outst ng wit the we taking a reasonable amount fince proven its merits as GANANOQUE April 15.--Mrs. W.

With the visit of the .Governor-General and Lady Byng and their staff the same week Ganapoqueans will be largely hon- ored.
