Mrs John Ross and Andrew Seim left for their home in Dakota last If you find that your partner is makâ€" ing for a disagreeable subject, and you wish to head him off, brieg your will to bear upen his, and project into his brain some other topic. or lead the way by a series of forcible sugrzestions to another train of thought.â€"The Deâ€" lineator. Conversation, in its final essence consists of the element of charm What charm is, it is extremely hbard to define. But if we bend our minds to the task of being charming, we shall most probably succeed in the end. The secret of a goodconversationalâ€" ist is always to be a rapt and attentive listenerâ€" No matter what foolishness your partner is talking; always lister, for it is the good listener who captivâ€" ates and conquers, hold the field. It is not at all necessary that you should do all the talking, do not fly at your partner and drown him out with words, Show an interest in what he is saving. and then he will continue to Do not talk about the weather, or your illnesses, or the maladies of your friends, Society is a place for the inâ€" terchange of only bright and pleasant thoughts ; leave the "grinds" at home. If you find yourself doing all the talking, you may depend upon it the other person is managing you. If you make the other person talk, you are the master of the situation Do not let conversatim drift into any subject. Begin the attack with something definite. and force your partner to show his powers, Remember that conversation is an art. It takes time, thought and exâ€" perience to develop the faculty of conâ€" versing properly, _The secret of successfol conversa tion is contained in the faculty of beâ€" ing able to make the other person talk, Never talk about yourself, and if you see the conversation drifting that way, get it out of a personal rut at once. Study the person with whom you are conversing, and lead up to subâ€" jects with which he is familiar. * waudy Never let your eye wander over the room while your friend is talking to yeu. Avoid an apologetic mood ; it is alâ€" ways weakening to the character. WATCH FOR ANNOUNCEMENTS THIS SPACE Hints on Conversation _# # #@â€"â€"___ Holstein. 6’ McIntosh. THE DURHAM REVIEW it is stolen,. They could probably pick it out from 50 other watches with their eyes shut. But how many men know that their watch is a compass and will tell north from south as accurately as it will tell the time of day ? Stanley, the explorer, did not know it until he had groped his way through the dark continent and met a Belgian sailor en the coast. Every watch is a compass, If you point the hour hand to the sun the south is sxactly half way between the hour and the figure XII to the dial. Suppose for instance, it is 4 o‘clock,. Point the hi.nd indicating 4 to the sun and the XI on the watch is exactly south. If it is 8 o‘clock point the hand indrcating 8 to the sun and the figure X on the dial is due south. No man need get lost if he carries a watch. In yview then Mr Ed. of whnat the Association has accomplished does it not plainly show to all classes and particularly to farmers what a power for good this Farmer‘s Asso‘n is when so much has been done by so few. what would be done if the farmers of this country were fully aliye co0 their own interest and join tne movement in the same hearty manner that the Grangers do in the States where at their convention held lately they set aside several thousands of ‘dollars fer the extension of their cause and where during this last vear 100.000 were added to their list. These are all matters directly efâ€" fecting the fatmer‘s cause, there are two or three otheriaws which are inâ€" directly a benefit to the tarmers such as the Cobalt mine bounties on the output and several others which had their origin from the Asso‘n. Most men who own a watch think they kuow all about it. They have the humber fixed in their memorvy in case Railways are now held responsâ€" ible for any damage done to stock getting on their railways which bad previously been the law but which by means of lobbying in Parliament for favors (while the farmers were aâ€" sleep) had succeeded in practically doâ€" ing away with all responsibility whatâ€" ever on their part. The Asso‘n tock the matier up and by petitims and in other ways succeeded in forcing the Railway Cos back to the regulations as first made, The Cowandrainage act was another great boon to thousands oi farmers which the Railway Cos tried to g‘m- hivit from crossing their lines. The Asso‘n not only had that grieyance _cancelled but the Railways haye now to open ditches across the lines at their own expense, wherever it is necessary, The freight rate grievance was next taken up by the Asso‘n and it was largely through their intiuence that a commission was appointed to look after this matter. The equalization of taxation of our Railways has been pushed with great force by the Assoc, and as a result the Railway ro‘s are this year paviug $40000 more in taxes than they have ever paid before but even this is small compared with taxâ€" ation of the same Railways in the States the rate being $1(0 perâ€" mile in Ontari0 and $400 per mile in Michigan where they haye built their lines at their own expense while in Canada our Government bas built their lines or nearly so and yet the Whitney Gov. says it is absolutely necessar to be careful in demanding our Rwfi way Co‘sto pay their just shares of taxes. Editor Smith (the farmer‘s cbum{)- iOr:i) was present and gave a very able address on the working of the Asso‘n. what it has already accomplished what it is able to do in the future if strictly adhered too. President Jas Watson, Vice Presiâ€" dent, Richard Barber, Sec. Treas, Bert Watson. At a meeting held in Novy it was decided to hold their monthly meeting the lst Fridur evening after the full moon. Ail members and those who intend to join the Asso‘n will do well to jot this date down. President D. Mcllvride occupied the chair and after the meeting was called to order the first business transâ€" acted was the eleetion of officers, which resulted as follows: On account of the evening being bitterly cold not as many were present as would have hbeen, however of the goodly number who attended we are certain they must have feit amply reâ€" prid for any sacrifice they may have made to attend.
