All, All,fare clothed with the new birth.

My heart is weary of its own deep sia— Sinning, repenting, sinning etill alway: When shall my soul thy glorious presence feel, And find its guilt, dear Saviour, washed away ?

Patience, poor soul: the Saviour’a feet were worn; ‘The Saviour’s heart and hands were weary

A Sketch of Mrs. Mary A. Hunt.

Mrs. Mary A. Hunt was born at Litchfield County, Canaan, Conn. Her father, Peter Thatcher, first pastor of the Old South Boston Church, was of Welsh descent. while her mother was of Puritan stock. She was educated at the public schools at Armenia Seminary, New York, and _ Patapsco lnstitute, Baltimore, Maryland, from which she graduated with honor. She subsequently became a professor of natural science in the last named institution, holding the position until her marriage with Leander b. Hunt who died about six years ago. Mrs. Hunt, was always s close student, and it was while assisting her only son ia his chemical studies in 1874 that ber attention was accidentally drawn to the study of the nature of alcobol and its effects upon the human system. She says: “This study became an absorbing re- search that filled me with alarm for the future] of; a nation whose people were con.

\}Jauming such vast quantities of alcohol.”

Possessed of a highly sympathetic nature and a disposition to examine carefully all existing

‘}testimony at her command relative to the

subject that occupied her thoughts, Mre. Haunt was soon convinced that these eeientific facts should be taught the people during the plastic period of childhood, und that the public school was the medium through which this instruction should be given, In 1880 the Women’s Christian Temperance Union, in response to her strong appeal formed » national department for scientific instruction, appointing Mrs. Hunt superintendent, but without salary or a for expenses. At this time scientific temperance instruction was but a theory—the outgrowth of an idea in one woman’s brain, but destined to become a national movement. In 1882 she addressed the legislature of Vermont, then in session at Montpelier, and the outcome of her effort was the placing upon the statute books of that state, in Devamhet of that year, the first compu sory temperance educstion law ever enacted anywhere, snd in the following year the legislatures of Michigan and New Hamp- shire adopted similar school laws. ‘‘ Now,” said Mrs. Hunt, “‘ if we can take New York and Pennsylvania we can carry the whole country.”” New York and Pennyslvania were taken, and state after state followed until 15 legislatures had eracted compulsory temper- ance education laws. In 1886 her appeal to Congress resulted in the enactment of the National Compulsory Temperance Education law. The Boston Daily Traveller, speakiag of this event, says; ‘‘Mre. Hunt’s address before the senate committee was considered one of the ablest and meet eloquent appeals ever delivered before the national congress.” Then followed the necessity for suitable text books for the schools. The laws relating to hygiene and physiology required to be translated into language adapted to all grades of pupils, and in this immense work Mrs Hunt labored in- defatigably, a great part of the expense in- curred paid from her own pocket. This is but a brief outline of the work accomplished by this devoted and highly gitted woman.

Rau.way Norse.—Mexico has the most luxurious railways in the world. The rails of the Mexican Gnif Railway are laid on sleepers of mahogany, and the bridges are built of white marble. On the west coast of Mexico there is another line which has eleepers of ebony and ballast of silver ore drawn from the old mines beside the track The reason for this apparent extravagence is, that the engineers had no other material on the route, and found it cheaper ‘to use these than to import ordinary material.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Letter from Manitoba. S1r,—1 have often thought of writing you as the days have been going by; but the pressing duties of the hour have often prevented. But row asthe warm March sun is pouring his beams in through the windows and telling of spring, 1 thiak of eastern homes and friends far away. Just now the strike among railway trainmen is the most exciting topic—-away ahead of politics; pro-ested elections, boodiing and all the rest of it for the time is forgotten in the question, will the trains be kept a-go- ing ¢ Aud just this woek with ten trains of new settlers and their cattle and other effects on the road north of Lalte Superior ! What atime to be tied up and business paralyzed. Yet I hope ere this reaches you that the difficulties may be settled. This is too good a country to have all ac- cess to it cut off for even a week, and eape- cially now when so many hundreds are on the way to it.

The class of settlers that seek these prairies have much improved in the last two or three years. Formerly most who came were homesteaders, i.e, those who took land from the Government, and after residing on it for three years and making certain improvements, received their ps- tent. Most of those had little but their hands to begin with, and though most of them have succeeded and are now doing well, yet it was hard work and self-denial that brought them out. But now with the increased facilities that the C. P. R. offers, farmers in the majority of cases bring their horses, cattle and most of their household effects with them, and purchase farms more or less improved, according to thsir means, and are at home and at work ina few weeks, and getting here in the early spring, have a crop to dispose of that fall.

Eeq., who by some witty sayings induced the purchasers to dip deeply into their pockets and bring out the mighty dollar, together with the no less important cop-

per.

The members of the Lodge desire, through the press, to sincerely thank the kind friends who took part in the entertain- ment, also those who kindly furnished pies and the liberal purchasers thereof for their assistance and support on the occasion, and in this relation we extend our hearty thanks to the kind friends of Montague Bridge, Geo’town, New Perth, etc., who so ably assisted in making the social a snccess.

In 1889, when J was stationed at Neepawa, aman named McKFeeters came from Ren- frew County, Ontario, and bought a haif section of land twelve miles north of the town, paying therefor $1,735 to his family he brought with him two cows and two span of horses. 1891 he had 170 acres of crop, which yielded him 4,000 bushels of No. 1 hard wheat, , 1,175 bushels of oats, and 190 bushels of barley. This crop, at the current prices, | gave him $3,380. In the fall of 1890 he! realized for wheat alone $2,500, which was grown on ‘breaking’ done the year of his arrival. He has this spring 50 acres ad- ditional, and will crop 220 acres this year. | All the work has been done by himself and | an elderly uian and a boy, with the help of | a hired man during six months of the year. In addition to the four horses that he/ brought with him, he now owns five others, and his cattle have increased from two to’! thirteen head. List year he erected a frame granary 24x35 in size, and this year a stable of the same size has been constructed. Both buildings have stone foundations. He has never had a bushel of wheat frozen, as he was sensible enough to locate ina district where such visitations are unknown. I commend these facts tu the careful con- sideration of any of my old friends in P. E. Island who are casting about in their minds for a piace to move to where they and their family may have room. Ot course you know that up to the present wheat has been the great staple of these plains, but now new enterprises are com- mending themselves to some that have capital, and as this soil is as well adapted for roots as for grain. West of this a chicory plantation aud factory is doing good work. Still further the sugar beet is being experi- mented with, and reasonable hopes entertained that our own sugar will be produced before many years. Anoli friend of mine in Neepawa, with a steam mi’l near a fine stream, is now enquiring abous the feasibility of atarting a starch factory, the soil in that immediate vicinity being especially adapted for the raising of excellent potatoes. If any of your readers having ‘experience in that matter would like to go in with an ener- getic and practical man in this venture, let him write to Jonathan Hamilton, Esq, Neepawa, Manitoba, and he may hear of something to his advantage. And now, Mr. Editor, to youself and numerous readers I send kindly greetings, and remain as ever yours truly,

—_—r-- Entertainment and ie Sociai at Lower Montazue.

According to announcement an entercain- ment and pie social was held by the mem- bers of Keefer Lodge, 1. O. G. T., in the hall at Lower Montague on Friday, the 26th. The evening being fine, and the roads in a fairly good condition, the hall was filled to the vestibule and an enj»y- able time was participated in by the vast audience. The time having arrived for the entertainment to commence, Hon. Thomas | Annear took the chair, and after a few re- marks suitable to the occasion, the follow- ing programme was successfully carried out, and judging by the evident enj »yment and enthusiasm of the audience the differ- ent numbers on the proyramme were much appreciated, especially the violin music.
