Larrey set himself to the task, and amputated first an arm and then a leg of the unlortunate man. But there was no more linen for the bandages. The doctor used his own cravat and his own shirt, and then had recourse to pieCes torn from soldiers’ uniforms. The patient bore horrible sufiering without mak- ing a complaint.

Last year in the Toronto, Hamilâ€" ton and Bay of Quinte Conferences of our church there were one hund- red and one ordained ministers who received salaries below $700 a year. There were one hundred and forty- three who received salaries between $700 and $800. In view of the expen- ses that the ordinary minister of the gospel and his family is under, and in view of the expensive educational equipment that each man has had to provide himself with before ordin- ation, which unfortunately frequent- ly brings him to ordination with a burden of debt, is it extravagance to say that nearly! every one of these two hundred and forty-four men was inadequately paid? 'We cannot see that it/is, and we know perfectly well that the majority of men of our church, both laymen and ministers, not personally interested, agree with 118. And what is more, we are fully convinced that these men are under- paid, not because of the poverty and inability of the people they serVe so much as because of their careless: we have only just got started on this subject of ministerial salary; that we feel that we have been re miss in the past in dealing with it, and that we expect it is going to be a specially live topic in our col- umns throughout the coming months. And, as we are only going to have twelve months in which to preach to this writer, there is every reason why we should be plain and insistent in dealing with the phases on the question that he raises. The Guardian has received many letters on this topic, some suggest- ing that. it should not discuss such a worldly theme. The editor writes: A SAMPLE NOTE Here is a sample of a note that has come to hand, sent with a re- newal subscription to the paper: "You can count this my final sub- scription to the Guardian if you con- tinue to preach your new gospel -â€" money. I am.getting sick at heart on account of this ‘eternal grind’ for money through the columns of the Guardian. The average clergyman of today seems to be more interested in salary and suppers than in salvation. I wish I had more space to express myself.” @i And here we will say over again what we have said before, this ques- tion of ministerial support, and of the financial aspect of church work and responsibility is one of the greatest importance, not from, the preacher’s point of view only, but That a campaign for the raising of salaries of Methodist ministers is to be actively carried on is shown by a strong editorial in “The Christian Guardian." METHODIST ORGAN HITS RIGHT OUT To the utter discomfort of this writer we are compelled to say that The hours are in each case from 9 to 11.30 a. m., and from 1.30 to 2 in the afternoon, with the exception of Spelling, Oral Reading and Geo- graphy periods, which may curtail the lunch hour or be taken tin late afternoon, according to the w1sh of the Student. 01 all the students writing, those enrolled in the Middle and Upper Schools begin on June 30th, and the Lower School, Model Entrance High School Entrance and Senior Public School Graduatfion pupils fold their papers on June 17th. There are practically no‘ departures either in curriculum or regulation from those of last year, but both Public and High School scholars alike will be free at the end of June. The completion of the work by this date last year, when the experiment‘ was tried out, proved wonderfully satisfactory, the stress of hot July (1335 being entirely avoided, and it‘ has decided the Department to make the regulation permanent. I The strenuous period of examina- tion time is already looming on the vision of thousands of Ontario stud- ents. The Department of Education has issued the time-tables for the annual examinations in June, serving. as a preliminary ‘ warning that the days of trial are on the way. N0 CHANGE IN JUNE EXAMINATIONS In connection with the recent halo-Turkish war, a high official told of real prodigies of valor, and of cases of resistance to pain which were marvellousâ€"and, indeed, often heroic, on the part of Italian 801- diers, officers and privates alike. well, that nothing infections may main.” This is the jubilee year of the love- ly and gracious Queen Mother Alex- andria. 'It is- just fifty years ago, that is to say, since she left her native land to be married to Albert Edward, Prince of Wales, afterwards Edward VII, of Great Britain, afid Ireland, and of the Dominions over the seas, and Emperor of India. She was more than the royal spouse of a well loved prince, she was adopted into the na- tion forthwith, and because of her grace and; charm became the pride of the British race, the type of matron- ly virtue and of queenly motherli- in“ ness and their penuriousness. We make that statement remembering gratefully the liberality and thought- fulness of large numbers of our peo- ple who would have it otherwise. ONLY 27 GET $1,600. And moreover, we believe it can be truthfully said that not only are these salaries already mentioned quite inadequate in most cases, but id many other instances, where much larger instances, where much larger amounts are paid, when all things are reckoned up, the remuneration is not what it ought to be. In these same conferences there are only twen- ty-seven men all told who received a salary of sixteen hundred dollars or over. Methodist ministers, like all other men, have their weaknesses and limi- tations; but when any man throws it at us that they are as a class, gettâ€" ing more grasping and worldly, and are more interested in getting their salaries than they are in sav- ing souls, we throw it right back at them. It isn’t true, absolutely and unqualifiedly, it isn’t true. And in the majority of cases the man who makes the statement does not make it because he believes it to be true, but for some other reason. ‘ the people can well afford to give it, the minister should receive a comâ€" fortable living, an opportunity to educate his children and to supply himself with the tools of his calling â€"books. That demand is not unreas- onable. JUBILEE YEAR OF We do not ask that the calling of the Christian ministry should yield large financial returns, as compared with other spheres and callings in life.

QUEEN MOTHER SPECIAL Vâ€"v â€"' .v rer Alex- cheers at Gravesend, “the Princess standing on deck in a simple White frock, was seen to cling with a startled look to her mother’s arm.” The Prince of Wales (King Edward) was as eager as his future subjects Ireland, to greet his bride, and also sailed the seas, out in his yacht to intercept the was more ship.

Is a bride the Princess Alexandra left her native land â€" the first Danâ€" ish Princess to do so for such a purpose for quite a centuryâ€"on the afternoon of February 28, 1863. It is recalled as an interesting coinci- dence that the engine which brought her train from Cologne to Brussefs, was named, “The Blucher,” and the engine driver was called Wellington. The crossing of the North Sea was accomplished in the old British roy- al yacht Victoria and Albert under the British flag, and with a fleet es- cort, every vessel in gala dress. Ev- en the ‘lanterns which illuminated the ships during the night hours had been arranged by gallant blue jackets so as to form a host of initial letters It was about eight o'clock on the morning of March 7 that the yacht entered British waters to the boomâ€" ing of guns in Margate Roads ; and a few hours later the representatives of the civic life of Margaret present- ed the first address of welcome, go- ing out to the Victoria and Albert by boat in their eagerness to be ab- solutely first.

SPECIAL LINDSAY The actual date of the marriage, March 10, was observed as a public holiday throughout the kingdom. Towns and villages everywhere were decorated with flowers, bunting and wreaths. The favorite emblem being the Royal initials A-E-A., surrounded with a lovers’ knot. It was said to have been the most popular royal marriage of recent days. The beauty and fine character of the bride was the main reason pos- sibly. There was also the hallowing touch of human sympathy overshad- owing all, for it was only a few months before that good Queen Vic- toria had come back from the very ous Guildhall banquet on June 7, on which day the Prince of Wales re- ceived the freedom of London, to which he was entitled by patrimony. The Lord Mayor led ofl in a quad- rille with the Princess, and the Lady Mayoress led the Prince. as partner. An after supper surpr1se was the sudden illumination of a View of the Chateau Bernstoufi', With the Prin- cess herself standing on the lawn. tisfied.” A deputation of Danish ladies preâ€" sented an address at Gravesend, on behalf of their people in London, which profoundly touched the Prin- cess. The»Earl of Caithness drove the engine of the train which bore the Royal party to London. THE WEDDING OF KING GEORGE’S PARENTS. The wedding, in St. George’s Chap- el, Windsor Castle, was a joyous scene, ctr. :Iy, brilliant and marvelâ€" lounly slezi'éic i1ar. 'l'he incomparable Jenny Lind sang the bridal hymn. Following the brief honeymoon at Osborne 8. reception was given at St. James Palace, at which the Prince and Princess received the elite of the aristocracy and the political chiefs. The first place of public re- creation which the Princess visited after her honeymoon was the Zoo- logical Gardens, where she was de. lighted with a baby lion cub, which she was permitted to fondle. London’s great share in the “house- warming” took the form of a fam- On Easter Sunday the Royal pair attended Sandringham church, and “at the conclusion of the service the Prince and Princess partook of the Communion in company with their village neighbors.” “At sight of- her old home, the Princess beamed with delight, and animation, and the City Fathers were rewarded.

Fighting the blizzards has been the most costly feature of winter railroading for years. Work day and night to keep tracks and switches clear, crippled engines dragged back to the repair shop, trains many hours late, or crowds of snowbound travellers livâ€" ing at the big hotels at the expense of the company have been frequentâ€" almost regularâ€"occurrences in other years. ‘ 1â€"...â€" “It’s an'ill wind that blows no one any good." Though lumbermen may bemoan the scarcity of snow,’ declaring that the winter’s work in the woods has been greatly handi- capped, and ice men predict a great dearth of the cooling blocks, next summer, the railways are rejoicing in the» peculiar winter. Ladies’ Gloves Chief Analyst A. McGill, of Ottawa has recommended that legislation be passedjixing a standard for a can of tomatoes. This is the outcome of the recent tests of canned tomatoes, which showed very great disparity of values. The samples ran all the way from 30 to 36 ounces. About.60 per cent. of the\numb~er of samples test- ed were found to contain less than the. required standard of fruit, as ex- acted under the law in the State of Ohio, and which he thinks should be a good basis for Canada. He thinks that a gross weight of 36 ounces of fruit should be compulsory, exclusive of juice. Under existing conditions, the consumers are paying canned to- mato prices for about one-third of a can of water. This is the explanation of the big dividends for the canners.
