No one doubts that such an aim IS petty and narrowing. but it is equally certain that it is a woman's duty to understand The Art. of Entertaining. and this forms, the subject of an attract- ive and useful article by LADY JEUNE Tm: COSMOPoLI'rAx for May. Last Sunday was the finest Sabbath day we hare had for Home tune, conso- quently a large number of ladies and toattert1ies we" out. Miss Christens McDongall. who spent some time With her parents. North Lino Glenelg returned again to Duluth. In viewing our cemetery we are sorry to ".r it is in a delapuluted state. headstones aslant, hurdocks would pull out easily now and it would be well if some of them were out of the way- Graves made while the snow was deep are sunken in now and this would be the proper time to tix them up. There were many new mounds made during winter which need repairing. Friend. would do well to look after the resting place of their dead. Arch Butters attended the funeral of the late Mr Russell. in Durham. Miss Jennie Robertson, of Buifttlo, is spending a few weeks mth her mother of this town. We no pleased to find Mrs Me1nues, sr., improving in health after her long experience of Sickness. Miss Mary McDonald. who has been badfast for months is gaining slowly and able tr. be about the house again. Our enumeratnrs say there cannot be any people in the Dominion kinder than the people of Gloualg and Artemesia. We came across Malcolm McInnon barn yard the other day and it looks as much like a. now null yard " anything elm judging from the piles of lumber. Moe is going to build a. largo and commodiom barn this summer which accounts for ali the timber and lumber in readiness. The beautiful weather we have had for the last few days reminds us of the approach of summer. Seeding is In oper- anon for the last few days The storm of Saturday the 20th April was almost equal to any we have experienced all win- ter Ronda are getting dry and passab'e now. The meadow fiehhs are b:ginning to have a beautiful greenish color which m- (licates that growth has begun. Birds are 'sin.eitur, their cheerlul notes of praise. The little" lambs are sknpping.upou the hill-elm and all animate creature: are el- loying the comforts derived from the warm rays of the sun. The sick ones are getting better and those that spent the jung and dreary months u winter on languishing beds of sickness are swim privileged to go about although tar from being in a healthy condition. yet there is mama to be thankful that they were not numbered amongst the many that has penned Away during the last few months. We are informed that Mum) Stone- house pnrchnnod Ilobt MeDonald's farm, Durham Road, Glenelg. This is a good investment for Mr Stonehouse And fam. ily as the farm is so eonvenUnt to them, suits: them better than anyone else. Uur village merchants 1nd all other bun-incl: men are prepared to meet. tha requirements of the rte-son and an able to compose favourably with any other town powesaed with similar facilities. Miss Tena McDonald (Hugh'r) who spent a lulu: time under Dr Bovle'n trent- ment is able to be about again and seems to be as lively and cheerful as ever for when Tenn is compelled to take to her bed it is an unquestionable faetlthat she is sick. All right, now we are pleased to report that she 15 gaining her usual strength and vitality after her long experience of Iickness.

Alex McLeod and family are sesidents at our thriving town also. Mr McLeod sold his farm recently to David Hiuelo of the South Line. Glenolg. Planned to have T A Ferguson back again from Choboygau. T intends to commence fuming next year and has rented hil place to Colin McLean for this season's crop only. John McDonald (Hugh's) met with a painful accident while working in a. saw mill at the Soo by getting the index finger taken " and the next. cut in half ways. The young man started off tor home as soon u be got the wounded hand dress- ed and we are pleased to report under the treatment of Dr Boyle, of this town, that ho is getting along as well as could be expected under the circumstances. Mrs Jas McDonald. South Line. Glen- elg. who was staying With her noice Mrs John Ferguson, of Proton intends to come back to her own house and home again this week, b'. L. Glenelg. No mat- ter how well and kind the treatment received elsewhere the natural disposition of luau is that there is no place litre home, let it be ever so humble. So this venerable lady wishes to end her days where she spent years of health and strength, when able to attend to her own affairs. The census enumerators were through with their work some time ago in the adjoining wards near town. g gr2f, Latest Literary News. Prleeville. George Caluert, near Vickers will on Thursdaf' May 2. offer for sale his stock and imp ements without reserve. Terms t--8 months. 2g' rent per an. discount for each on or it amounts. It is fitting for us and we hereby return thanks to the public generally on behalf of the enumet'atots, who mm and all speak in praise of the warmth of their reveption from almost every home. At the same time. as Commis- sioner we heir, to thank the enumet'ators for their faithful services and the will- ingness they have shown to meet all requirements of the Census Act. From the wide variation shown in egg production one or both of two things should receive the olose attention of the farming population. Either, a better. system of recording results should he. adopted or the necks of half the fowl in the country should he wrung. Similar treatment seems Very necessary also in the dairying ranks for plainly many are "keeping" cows and poultry instead of making cows and poultry help to keep them. No Ruler road to progress can he found than the habit of keeping results, and the comparison to he made with previous years will show progress or the need of it. Many interesting points cannot he referred to until ofmually announced from Ottawa. The work has been no sinecure, as we can testify. and we hope the results obtained over all Canada will he gratifying to our national pride and worth the expenditure which will approximate to half a million dollars. The census year was an unfortunate mu- fur S. Grey as tar as fruit, was run- corned. 1000 heing an "at?" yrar in this respect. The planting; of forcsr Lives ls going on largely in many districts and will he likely to increase before another census. The last book ot the 38 on mnerators of South Grey, was handed in to our office on Tuesday of this week and the count. is complete as far as an honest dirt on the part of all concerned made possmle, The work was no light task, as many found, and the facts sought for, though to some ap- pouring trivial, are of much conse- quencc in the aggregate. I The oldest ennmerat r Was Mr. Mal. irolm McPhee. of Nornmnhy. who has Ilived through 8 census years and re- members 7 of them, yiz.. from 1tU1 onwards. 'l‘ht-olilest.nelson we heard of was Mr. McPlwe's father. who w:i< 100 years old last, June. Durham has another (‘entenzu'inn in the person of Mrs. Lawn-nee. who pesult.s with her son George. South Grey showed black ‘men. yellow men and white men. though no red as: far as we. know. There were Swiss and Syrians. and Norwegians, as wellas Germans, French and from the isles of the sea. There were a few cases where the “lacinl might" could not be traced out, of this continent, though belonging to the white races, suggesting the necessity of anew name. A surprising variety of "occupations" turned up amongst them heing "none" and "professional tramp." The “religion” column shows all kinds of the Christian sects, some Mahomme. dans, no Jews as- far as We noticed, several are Fhwvthinkers an l 'Agturstrc' and "Atheist" have their representa- tives. The proportion of illitetaus amongst white adults is Rratifyingly small thew lining not more. than two or three families of grown up whites who cannot read or write. For the first time in any Canadian Census an attempt has been made to aseertain the proportions of the 'popu- lation born in rural or in urban district and its value is not so great now as it will be in 1911 when conclusions can be -drawn as to the movement to or from the country and this know- ledge is of great value tostatesmen whose duty it is to examine into any mevement whose tendencies may possibly be injurious. For the firat time also an attempt has been made to find out the agricul- tural resources of the country. not of course as in some quarters is absurdly imagined for any purpose of taxation, but as the basics on which to form es. timates in future years as to the lines agriculture is likely to run in, that so provision may be made in transport- ation, storage Ae., to meet most profit- ably current demands. While the duties have boon arduous and exating where faithful works has been done, it has not been without a touch of humor and many are the stories told of amusing experiemwsand taekfal devices in the prosecution of the. work. Much expressed indignation is being uttered by Consetwatixres becausein- dustries employing less than tive hands are not enumerated on the special schedule. Bat it should be remem- bered that the mumberof manufactur- ing establishments are taken account of and if, nsfeared, there shout! appear to be a falling off' since 1901, the ox- planation can be trathft1'ly given that the enumeration of industries in '91 was little better than a tame, sinee even in some cam-s washerwoinen were returned amongst the industries. Nothing is to be gained by stutfing the census and much is to be lost by with- holding vxact information, and we have been pleased to learn from the enumbrators that only a few instances did ignorance or unwillingness inter- fere with their duties. The results nhmim-d are more valu- able than might at first, sight, appeal. Tukingune tnan'senutttevation only. it, is possible to he a long way out, taking 10 men, the 'tveprtge will he noarm' the truth, and taking l0.000 men the "yet" age will he still noun-r, and will prur- tically furnish a hams Tttl which to build calculations.

Wellreek P. o., March 16. 1901. This is what Mrs. J. W. Butchins, 82 Portland St., Toronto, has to say, 'l cannot say too much for Dr. Pitch- er's Backache Kidney Tablets. Be- fore using them I had a gnawing pain in the back all the time, and an acute lameness across the loins. I had not so much aching in my head as between my shoulders and in the back of my neck. Since using the Tablets my back is as it used to be, and the rheumatism in the shoulders has dis- appeared. Formerly when I did a washingI was utterly tired out, not having a bit of energy left. This morning I did mv washing in two hours and I did not mind it. I have no hesitation in recommending Dr. Piteher's Baekaehe Kidney Tablets, for I never had anything do me so much good."
