I’ll“ It tho Annual looting of the South Grey Women's Institute. The women of some countries are not thought so much of as those in our own dear land. Here they rule their own homes and are .accounted first importance. They have a great work to do. On them devolves the duty of inculcating the spirit of thrift -â€"thriit properly defined means care and prudence. making the best of what we have. In this we should try to do our very best. for every little counts in home making. find myself ecc'ompemed these ladies to Elmwood and we had a very pleas- Ilt and profitable time. We held our annuel meeting in Durban last year and we had Miss Laure Rose of Guelph with us. She geve us a splendid address on the “ Work of a Week.” She just told us how she would do esch day’s work. We held meetings in August, September. October and November: two in Glenelg, one in Bentinck end one in Egremont. These were very well attended and we hnd papers on diflerent subjects at every meeting. There is also a question drawer at each meeting. There is often a thought comes to my mind something like this : I ex- pect to pass through this world but once, if there be any kindness I can Ihow or any good thing I can do to any one near me. let me do it now; let me not neglect it for I shall not pass this way again. We should al- ways he doing what we can to help each other to make this life better and pleasanter. A. it tells to my lot to preeide over‘ third eunnel meeting of the 8. G. .I..

Miss Beem spoke on Cheerful I.“ in the Home ” at Durham and Allen Perk. and at Elmwood on _ “ Butter Melting ” Miss Roddick' Cleo eddressed the meeting, meanvf 'hile conducting demonstrations in- eoolting. She made deserts in Dur-l hem end cooked vegetables and made “lids et other points The Secretary ‘ We sent a delegate to Guelph to attend the convention in December bad she brought home an excellent report which was read at our meeting ill Durham in January. It was very “army and there were not many at the meeting. but we ,had several papers on home-nursing which were liltened to very attentively. It is our custom to appoint new oficers at our annual meeting. You have now aPresident, Vice-President and board of directors to elect. I assure you I feel more than obliged to you for your kind helpfulness and sympathy for the past year. I know have borne with me and given me every encouragement 1n justice to myself I can conscientiously say that I have at least tried to do my best, but if I have failed, I thank you again for your forbearance, and who- ever my successor may be she can ever rely on my assistance and help in all she undertakes for the good of the Institute. Yet allow me to say in closing that the greatest boo towards making the home happy i'; od’s richest bleesing rooting upon that home. Let every member of the family live each day. each hour of their lives trusting in God for everything and then. and not till then will the homes eXperience that peace which the world cannot doe. lac. Tune. McGraa. We heve had one meeting in Egre- Ionc ehis last. month. We find it is impossible to meet in the winter as the roads are so bad and the members are so Widely scattered over the {our townships. Now this in just our own branch of the Instit- ute. I think the Secretery will be able to tell us about the other bran- ehee, end we hope they are going on working and meeting with success. Women’s Institutes have opened up a wide field of usefulness {or the women of the farm. so many subjects being dealt with that relate to the well being of that which makes life not only profitable but enjoyable as well. There is something about the Women’s Institute which brings us in common touch with one another. It seems to be the means of bringing about the old time sociability by re. moving that spirit of gossip and jealousy, and giving something else to think about. If we do not make it the means of enlightening and broadening our minds, it is useless to keep it up. _ A woman’s duties are many; her possibilities are even more. Where- over her life touches another, there she has had opportunity. The young girls who shall come to preside over the homes of Ontario will be far bet- ter fitted to assume the reaponsihili- ties than were the majority of their mothers when they came to preside over the new home that marriage gave them. This is due to the dif- ferent educational schools which are hells established in our land.

T., the latter part of this week. They will commence life as farmers. having homesteads there. If the Pomona. Scribe will allow us the privilege we will tell you how Mr. and Mrs. Ben Crittenden happen- ed ?o be visiting up at Mrs. Thos. Anderson’s and met a Mrs. Mantle of Ayr, who is also visiting in that part ar- preeent. As Mr. and Mrs. C. at one time resided in Ayr when the trio got together they were a most con- genial element. So your Traverston correspondent swore because an old sow rooted up the roadside in his part. To show his feelings overa little thinglike that seems like a case of cussed, and cussed Just because that was the kind of a cuss he was. An old sow in this part last week broke into a building ate all the straw hats in sight. de- stroyed «linner baskets and ate the contents and ripped us some coats and cloaks for bedding. yet we didn’t swear. Other people will do that for us and run chances of getting re- warded. On account of the wet weather some farmers have just nicely got their potatoes planted, others who got them in early tell us they have decayed in the ground so they will have to start over again and he in the race with rest of us. A siding was put in to the mill from the cement track and a few loads of lumber has been shipped out. It is found to be a great. convenience and saving of money. Perseverance and will-power he must have, but whether he has strength and vigor is another con- sideration. Hard working men us- ually have irritable nerves and should fortify their system with a course of Ferrozono. atonic that re- builds and revitalizes beyond all tell- ing. It’s just wonderful the strength that Ferrozone imparts to broken- down men. It forms new blood, sup- plies the system with abundant nourishment, and where formerly there was tiredness and lassitude Ferrozone establishes a reserve of energy and vim. Try Ferrozone price 50c. per box. It is a far cry from Vancouver to St. John and yet it seems fitting that the voice that a year ago whispered to the young men “go West” should this year call to the venerable assembly to turn toward the land of the rising sun. As most of your readers are aware there are two main routes leading to St, John, one round by the old city of Quebec, along the banks of the St. Lawrence,down by the bay of Chaleur and away by the northern extension of the Bay of Fundy to the city that has long been the lumbering centre of the East. The other route takes you from Montreal by a direct line across the state of Maine to McAdam and thence along the valley of the St. John River down to the Chief City of New Brunswick. Measured by actual mileage. the latter is much the short- er route, but by the more practical measurement of dollars and cents they are the same. By the shorter route the actual running time is less, but those who travelled on,on Monday evening reached St John slightly ahead of those who by the shorter route left Toronto on Tuesday morn- ing. The route by the Intercolonial oflered more sight seeing and more travelling for the money than the other, but remembering the Scottish advice “gang right through” I select- ed the shorter route. Evidently the C. P. B. were doubtful of the popu- larity of their own route for the 'special’ that was mentioned in a circular from the company was not sent out. However two day coaches a dining-car and pullman bore the placards with the 1nscription,' Private (cod is refined vhf ilieâ€"ntomch mot-e tin-Ii five Vh'ovnrlv’srit‘ vbecoihes femenhflve end putrebetive.â€"not digestive. â€" end that this In the starting-point of disease.

Ours was not a trip for sight seeing but a rush to reach the goal as soon as possible. We did nos even go up to Montreal station but branched OR to the south get the Junction. Yet in the midst of much barren land there were scenes of real beauty spread out be- fore us. The view from the high lands over the beautiful district east of Toronto with Whitby and Oshawa away in the distance was beautiful. Of an entirely difierent character was the sight of the clear waters of the Ottawa rushing down past green islands over rocks, sweeping along so majestically that one hardly wonders that the Indian saw in it the vision of Deit‘y. In its own way equally charming was the quiet restful impression produced by Moose Lake, a resort for hunters and fishers in the State of Maine. As we swept along the banks of the St. John we found the waters running from the sea landwards which called to mind the, fact that there is a tide in the affairs of men as well as in Fundy Bay. One of the speakers yesterday spoke of the modern Saint John as being a kin to the ancient Saint of that name in their spirit of loving hospitality and already we are able to testify to the truth of the remark. There are many things more that might be said but I have written at too great length already. If' I have time I shall try and write something of Assembly work for a future issue which through your kindness will reach the many friends I cannot reach individually. Meantime adieu Yours Sincerely. WM. FARQUHARSON. Lay and clerical, farmers and busi» ness men, judges. lawyers and gov- ernors, ministers and professors all gather to take part in the proceedings of the Assembly. The occupations of the way are varied in the extreme. One reverend clergyman was seen with a combination key with which he was exercising the ingenuity of his fellow passengers in the attempt to unlock its mystery. Then there was the old fashioned riddle and the story chest from which were taken Htreasures both new and old.” So the merry laugh went round till the title, “Long faced Presbyterians” seemed ill placed. Yet all was not so trifling‘ Novwithstanding all the merriment there were discussions as to life and work, till the problems of town and country were looked at from many a point of view and sym- pathies were awakened through a richer and fuller acquaintance. So we rolled on and there was the meet- ing of old friends with its gladness and sadness, and the contact with men of repute hitherto unknown, and the still more delightful dis- covery of character and power in some new acquaintance that sends one away With hape and confidence for the church of the future. yet with- al the memories of the past are sad as well as glad. Ten years ago I went over the same route to a former meeting of the Assembly. On that occasion some of the happiest sallies were from Drs. Proudloot, Cochran Thompson and Robertson and the dearly loved D. J. McDonnell with some former Assembly men. [ reo called the incidents and we laughed over them again the tear all the time rising in the midst of the laugh. Such islife with its ioys and sorrows its laughter and its tears.

It soothes and heals rthe inflamed mucous membranes, prevents sneezing and coughing, clears away the “stufied up” feeling in the forehead.
