THE STUDENT'S TRIBUTE.

In memory of the late Mr. Connors, the children of the Model School presented two wreaths; the students of Prince of Wales College presented three; three lady stu- dents preseated flowers. The young peo~ ple, no doubt, higkly appreciated the kinduess of the deceased. He will long live in their memory, as one whose sympa~ thies were with them. The following letter of condolence was presented by stu- dents of Prince of Wales Colleve :—

Ca’rown, Oct. 5, 1899. “To Mrs. Connors, —

“Death is a severe blow at all times, and more especially to the family into which itenters. Sometimes the course of even s gives astime and warning to prepsre for the awful crisi jJbut when it corses suddenly and unexpected it seems to rend more severely the ties of the family circle, and casts @ greater gloom over the whoie com- munity.

Our time on earth is no:hing compared to the vastoess of eternity. We spend it amidst sorrows and joys, difficulties aud hopesa—all is but a preparation for the great hereafier.

And what is life to him who lives with never a thought of his indebtedness to his Ureator and the Brotherhood of mankind.

Tis but a bubble that bursts and vanishes away,and death ends all things. But to him who feareth his God and loveth his fellow men, life is the beginning of a givrious future, and death ix the despa ghe-

of all displeasures, the beginning of bl.ss~ fulaess.

Our es.eemed friend Mr. Connors lived before us a life of honesty and rightness,and his many acis of kindness will be fondly and with gratitude remem- bered by those who in the past yeare attended Prince of Wales College.

To you and family we the uadersigaed,

extend, on bebalf of our fellow stuaen: Is, odr heartfelt sympathy in this your great

bereavement.

(LILIUM BARRISII)

One of the grandest winter- flowering plants in culti- vation.

Pure pearly white, deliciously fragrant and a remarkable profusioa of bloom, characterize this charming and celebrated Easter Lily. Its populari ty and sales bave increased wonderfully and deserved - ly, for without exception, it is one of the most valuable bulbs for winter flowering in the bouse. A profusion of bloom may be bad from Christmas until spring, if a number are planted and “brought in” at diff-rent times. Bulbs after flowering can be ripened and rested acouple ot mvnths by withholding water, aud will then pr- duce another crop of flowers frequently equal to the first. It isa magnificent variety for church decoration at Easter and tens of thousands are grown for this purpose. The flowers are pore wile, 4 or 5 inches long (and frequently mcze) and of the most delicious fragrance.

A supply of the above just received.
