' The annllllfmeeting of St. Vincent do Paul society was held list night in the basement of St. Dunstans Cathedral. There was a`good attendance notwith- standing the disagreeable evening. The chair was occupied by the _wortly Presi- dent Professor Qaven: i .

As a fitting recognition of the literary ability of,Profes_sor John Caven"and his connection with Island” education for many years Dr; Morrison presented him with the Degree of Doctor ' cf Literature from Laval University. The program included choruses bythe

choir of St. Dunstans under the leader- ship of Judge Blanch_n.rd,sclos_ by Mrs. J. F. Trainor and Mrs. P. 0. Benoit, speeches by Mayor Kelly and Alexander McDonald and the” leading. of an a’ddrc`ss to Pres dent Caven by' Joseph McCarey. The Professor was taken completely by surprise andthe honor was totally unex- pected.

THE OPERA nousE.

A very large and highly delighted

audience enjoyed a frlne performance of the new nautical drama, the “0cenn lVaif," at the Opera House, last evening, by Price Webher‘s excellent company. The drama is full of merit, possessing a clearlyccnstructed plot which holds the attention to the very final full of the curtain. Edwina. Grey in the title role, again demonstrated her great powor of pleasing and was rewarded by hearty rounds of applause. Mr. Bedell, as the Squire, played an ungrateful. part in a. very clever manner; Mr. Loring got a well deserved -encore for his song, which was .exceed- ingly well rendered,_ as. was also Mr,

` ACHING KI DNEYS.

Cen Only be Cured by Enfiehing the Blood by the Use of Dr. Williams Pink Pills.

'l`he‘kidneys filter every drop of your

blood. The purity of the blood depends

upon the kidnciys and the health of the k dneys depen s upon the blood. If your blood is weak ‘tie kidneys have not strength for their work and leave thc blood unfiltered and foul: If yourblood is

had the kidnfys get clogged with painful, poisonous mguritios. That is what causes youmbac ache with thc dullpains or sharp stabs of sick kidneys. And kidney disease is one`of the most deadly and

hopeless things that can attack you. The on y ho is to strike without de ay ut 'he root of me troublcin tho blood with Dr. \Villlams' Pink Pills. They actually make ne\v blood. They flush thc kidneys clean, heal their inilamation and give them strength for their work. Common

-kidngarlgills only touch the symptoms Dr. lame' ink Pills euro the cause. That is why they cure for good and at the same time improkc the health in every

wa .

hir. Geo. Johnson, of the village of Ohio

N. S., gives strong proof of the truth of the n ove statements. Hc says: “My son, now nineteen years old,- suflered greatly with kidney trouble. He was constantly troubled witg. severe pains in the back, and often passe ` 'sleeple~s nights. His appetite failed, he grew weak, and could hardly do the usual

work that tfalls to the lot of a. boi on a farm. We tried several idney medicines, but they did not help him any.

Then a friend recommended Dr. Williams' P nk P_il_ls. and this was thc first medicine that reached the cause of the trouble. lie used the pills for a couple of months and I am thankful to say is now as strong and healthy as any boy of his age."

There is no disease due to bad blood

that Dr. Williams' Pink Pills will not cure, limpl because they make now, rich red blood (gat expels disease from every

part of the bodys That is why they cure the worst cases of anaemia, ndigestion neura mia, rheumltlsm headac e, and backac es, and the special ailments from

which women aionc suffer. but onli ‘he genuins pills can do this and you n ould see tha the full name, “Dr. Williams’ Punk Pi.-lls for Pele People," is printed on

A poor man may possess n wit so

line that it is capable of doing him s great deal of service and then walt a long time before nn opportunity comes for him to exercise it profitably. This was the case with an elderly trump who was once intrnsted, for want of a better messenger, with an ern-and to the Duke of Bedford.

“\Vell, youlre :i queer fellow,” said

the duke on seeing him. “What is your name?"

“My nume is Russell, your gzrucs-.” The dukc_ luuglied lienrtily, for his

own name wus Russell.

“And how about your cont of arms ?"

risked thc duke. “Is that the same as the Duke of Bedfm-d’s?”

"Ab, your grace,” said the mun, “our

arms may be much the same, but I fancy there's a slight difference in our coats!"

As this fact was only too apparent,

the duke sent for s good cout of his own and gave it to the man.

The assaulters succeeded in holding

some eighty yards of the trenches which they had captured by sheer might of numbers, but later they were drivcnput with great slaughter.
