This is what he savs: “About t_hree vears

“After using them a week I passed ii

stone as large as a bean and_ fo ir days lateranother as large as a grain of harley. From this on I gained strength. This _is three years ago and I have had no _pain or symptoms of t_he old trouble since. Dodd`s Kidney Pills are certainly the best medicine in the World.

GRAND Junr Room,

_ Charlottetown.

Jan. 9th, 1901.

To the Honorable Chief Justice Sullivan

and associate J udges of the Supreme Court of Prince Edward Island:

The members of the Grand Jury :report

that they visited the Lunatic Asylum and found everything in excellent order. 186 inmates seemed to be comfortable and well cared for. The large new addition to the building, which will soon be com- pleted,will afford ample room for the greater comfort of those who are now over-crowded.

The Poor House was next visited and

is far from what could be desired and we are glad to know that better accommoda- tion is soon to be provided in the new wing of the Lunatic Asylum for many of its inmates. »

The Jail was also visited, and we have

nothing to add to previous reports on this institution, and hope that new premises will shortly be furnished outside the . city limits. The youthful prisoners therein found, suggest that some great changebe made as soon as possible. _ The escape of the prisoner, Ceilings, couli not, in our opinion, have been made over the fence without assistance.

WM. McGna'rII, foreman.

Mr. Palmer to the Parent Society, up to `SM‘*.LLP°X IN KANSAS UTY:

this date, is $6,619.26. The estate consists ‘ of tenement houses, which are much out of repair, and difficult to dispose of at

present. `

We are much gratified in reporting that

the grand and glorious work of the Parent Society, in printing and circulat- ing the Sacred Scriptures, is advancing with increased progress. Every year, new doorsare opened for th'e entrance- of G:>d`s Word, and the day will certainly come, when every nation under Heaven, shall be supplied with the Book of

Books. -

Your Couimitee trust that ere. long all

the chief centres of population in this Province, which have not already taken action, will organize a Branch Society for the purpose of co-operating with this Auxiliary in forwarding the work of the ‘ grand old Parent Society of thc Mother' Country. We are much pleased with y what has already been accomplished in this direction, and extend our heartiest thanks to Mr. McKelvie for his lecturing tour through a large portion of this Island, in the interests of the Society during last Autumn. Should he favor us with another visit of a .similar kind, he may rest assured of a warm welcome

from our people.

Physicians here have begun a house to house vaccination and every building infected is to be fumigated.

fi.; v

general progress had been made the British Foreign, Bible Society is not known in every district in the province of Prince Edward Island.

The Bible Society is the rock upon which all other societies are founded. The reports to hand state that the closing year of the 19th century has witnessed the largest circulation of the. Scriptures in the history of the society, but against that there is a falling oil' in the receipts, doubtless caused to a large extent by the war in South Africa and the famine in India. During the year 770 colportenrs have been employed and one million and one half copies of the Word were sold translated into353 languages. He depioned the introduction of cheap literature into the home and impressed his bearers with the fact that a taste for the Scriptures should be cultivated. The truths of the grand old Book should be custilled in the minds of all. It should be talked ever and prayed over by every teacher and leader.

Rev. G. P. Raymond in moving .the

adoption of the report as read by Mr. Oxenham said that the 96th annual report of the British and Foreign Bible Societyindlcates a larger circulation than ever before. Today 25,000,030 people study the same S. S. Lessons, and 2,5tl),000 teachers meet with their classes. During the year 45 additional colporteurs have been employed and today 532 Bible women labor under the direction of missionary societies in India, Ceylon, China and Japan. These Bible women read tc 35,000 women each week and 2,003 are taught toread. Besides 'teaching 27,000 copies of the Word were circulated. Mr. Raymond then dealt at length with the manner of distribution and the unmber of languages into which the Scriptures Were translated.

Rev. Mr. Raymond moved that

the same officers as last year be re-elected with the addition of John McPhail as Vice President in place of T. C. James, resigned.He also moved the following additions to committee: Joseph Knight, I. T. McKenzie, C. H. Chandler, Artemns Lord. Collector, S. McMurray.

Rev.'J. W. McConnell and Rev. D. B.

McLeod also spoke at length of the influence of the Bible upon the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
