Pneumonia, grippe and measles seem to be the prevailing diseases, Many deaths are reported. There were two deaths in the home of Ronsld McDonald (big) last week. Doctors and clergymen are kept constantly on the road. Owing tothe ice hovering around the gulf and its close proximity to the shore, very few herring have yet been caught. Very few traps, for the same reason, are in the water, nor is there yet much done ip the way of planting or seeding. Plowing, however, i8 now at this date, pretty general, though the land is not in the best condition, owing to the cold damp weather, A redeemiog feature of the present spring in the eastern sections, is the of caitie feed. The farmer, owing to the scarcity of teed for the last few springs, suffered seriously, and, on this account, the present abundance is the more appreciated, ViaTor. May 7th 1897. THE LATE REV. J. G. CAMERON, Although the papers of the Province have recorded with expressions of regret and respect the death of the late Rev. J. G. Cameron, of this place, it is natural to suppore.that many people will welcome a more extended notice of his life and work, and his estimable traits as a christian min- ister and a christian gentleman. The deceased was born in Nova Scotia in 1846. He visited P. E. Island when comparatively a boy. It is a curious cir- cumstance that twenty-nine years ago when he made this visit he preached in Murray Harbor North but a few feet from where he lies at rest today. His visit lasted four weeks at the time referred to; he was ordained not long after, and accepted a charge in Bonshaw. There he laboured for five years, after which he assumed the Souris pastorate, held by him for 22 vears, a singularly long and successful period ot work in one charge. From Souris, he was one and three quarter years ago,in Augu+t, 1895, unanimously called to the Murray Harbor North charge, and removed there with the feeling thatthere was a partieular work for him todoin that part of his Master’s vineyard. His work in the Murray Harbor con- gregation has been a remarkable one. He found it in a _ chaos, praetically speaking, when he took hold of the charge but his zea! and unaffected earnestness, his social and personal magnetism were unbounded. In a few months the effect of his# labors was apparent for the people became inu- tected with his own energy and enthusiasm and grew to be co-workers with their pastor. Mr. Cameron’s success along this line was perhaps the most conspicuous in the way be did missionary work in out- lying rections of his congregation where people were not in the habit of going to church and were careless about church matters. He would go to preach in differ- ent sections, holding Louse to house meet- ings if no hall were available. He was repaid by outburets of enthusiasm in quarters where neither had existed before. In this way he greatly increased the num- ber of church goers in his congregation avd p-rbaps this is the most valuable and important work a minister ean do. In the meantime his regular congregation flour- ished and grew strong. It seems sad that, just as he was about to see the fruition of his efforts at reconcilliation and develop- ment, the faithful servant should be called away, the silver cord loosed and the golden bowl broken. It is superfluous to add much in commendation of the’deceased gentleman’s queli ies of head and heart. The writer knew him personally, knew him as he was, and it 1s a pleasure to call to mind his rare kindness aud courtesy of manner his keen clear common sense,his vigorous vitality which infected all * whom he met with Lis own hearty enjoyiwent of the innocent pleasures of life. Goldsmith’s words seem to apply to him inthe hay p- iest and aptest sense: “A man he was toallthe country dear, And even his failing leaned to virtues side.” His ast days will not be forgotten by those who visited him. On Sunday the llth of April he did not preach owing to indisposition but up to Thursday the 15th he fully expected being able to officate on the Sunday following and even had prepared a sermon for that occasion. But it was not to be. The Master whom he served with such zeal and love here below sent forth the summons. “Come up higher” and few men have passed away more deeply loved and keenly regretted, Murray Harbor North, May 3 ’97. PERFECT and permanent are tha cures by Hood’s Sarsanarilla, be« cause it makes pure, ae healthy; hife and health-giving BLOOD. THE VAILY EXAMI — Another National Anthem, My office, 'tis of thee— Soft place reserved for me, Of thee I sing! Place that I long to get, Worked for in cold and wet— ’ Place that I'll have, you bet! Of thee I simg! I love thy downy bed— Soft chair and tape so red, You bet I do! I love thy full contro}. I love thy big pay roll. I’m for you heart and soul— I'm after you! *Frank L. Stanton in Atlanta Constitution. Cards, A lady’s card should be thin, of fine texture and neatly engraved with her name in the center, her residence in the lower right hand corner and her reception day, if she has one, in the lower left hand corner. A married lady uses her husband's Christian name on her cards and not her own. When there are several married la- dies in the family bearing the same name, the elder branch uses the surname only, as Mrs. White.—New York World. The Strong Point.

Friend (making a call)—You are not looking very robust. Do you enjoy good health? Mrs. Stayatt-Holme (with a sigh)— Indeed Ido! But I hardly ever have a chance to.—Chicago Tribune. The origin of soap is a mystery, but we have many evidences of its antiquity. It is mentioned at least twice in the Bible, under the name of ‘‘bouth,’’ ata period corresponding to several centuries before Christ. A Pretty Sure Test. “I wish I knew whether my Robert really loves me or not.’’ ‘*You can easily find out. All you have to do is to make an appoinment with some other young fellow, only take care that Robert is informed of what you have done. Then if he really loves you he will certainly kill you, but if he doesn’t you may rest assured that he is only flirting with you.’’— London Fun. Bank President Isaac Lewis of Sabina, Ohio, is highly respected all through that section. He has lived in Clinton Co. 75 years, and has been president of the Sabina Bank 20 years. He gladly testifies to the merit of Hood’s Sarsa- parilla, and what he says is worthy attention. All brain workers find Hood’s Sarsaparilla peculiarly adapted to their needs. It makes pure, rich, red blood, and from this comes nerve, mental, bodily and digestive strength. “Tam glad to say that Hood’s Sarsapa- rilla is a very good medicine, especially asa blood purifier. It has done me good many times. For several years I suffered greatly with pains of Neuralgia in one eye and about my temples, es- pecially at night when I had been aaving a hard day of physical and mental labor. I took many remedies, but found help only in Hood’s Sarsaparilla which cured me of rheumatism, neuralgia and headache. Hood’s Sarsaparilla has proved itself a true friend. I also take Hood’s Pills to keep my bowels regular, and like the pills very much.” Isaac LEWIS, Sabina, Ohio. oods Sarsaparilla Is the One True Blood Purifier. All druggists. #1. Prepared only by C.

The sick world is growing heavy with cures. To the rest cure, the faith cure, the barefoot cure is now added the gayety cure, To be as gay as possible is claimed to be remedial, and even preventive. Gayety sanitariums are proposed, with roof gar- dens, where sick men snd women may defy disease with laughter and crush the bacilli wlith badinage. A new philosopher garrulously, if not gravely, declares that we have too many duties. We think too much of others and not enough of our- selves. We strive to make the world bet- ter, while we ought to be making it jol- lier. We think and feel and do too much. The great balm is a wholesome fatuity—a bubbling thoughtlessness. This is adelightful theory, but there are some serious questions in the way of its glad acceptance. If it is true, the habitues of the vaudeville should never get Bright’s disease, and heart failure, and app endiditis, and gripand pneumonia. But they do. If it is true, what business have the editors of comic weeklies to have melancholia and end men to be cut short in their career by paralysis? Why do gilded youths get asthinatic and go to the Hot Springs, where gayety never entered? Itis just pos- sible that the man who invented this cure is working a new amusement syndicate. It is even supposable that gayety kills more people than gravity. At all events, gayety isn’t laid on like gas or mustard plasters—it springs in the heart when a man has done an honest day’s work, or helped an honest friend, or married the girl he loves and expects to work for. Away with the fellow who would make a drug of it and then sell it.—New York Journal MESSAGE TO MEN, Proving that True Honesty and True Phil antrophy Still Exist, If any man who is weak, nervous and debilitated, or who is suffering fiom any of the various troubles resulting from youthful follv, excesses or overwork, will take heart and write to me, I will send him confidentially and free of charge the plan pursued by which I was completely restored to perfect health and manbood, affer pore of sutlering from Nervous De: bility, Loss of Vigor and Organic Weak- ness, Ih ve nothing to sell, and therefore want no money. but as I knowthrough my own experience how to eympathize with such sufferers, lam glad to be able to assist any fellow-beinge toacure.

AYERS —_— KR, CHARLOTTrTOWN MAY i2, 1897. His Mission, As he came out of the White Honse his face wore a smile as radiant as the dawn of pay day. ‘‘I’m all right, boys,’’ he said, shak- ing hands all round. ‘‘It’s fixed at last. { knew I could do it if I could get his sar for a minute,’’ “‘You’re in luck,’’ commented an in- serested member of the group. ‘‘How did you manage it?’’ “Easy as falling off a log. I just brushed right by the doorkeepers, sailed ap to McKinley and told him I’d have to be taken care of. He looked me over a moment and said, ‘Go to Jericho.’ What's the salary at Jericho? Anybody know?’’—Chicago Times-Herald. A Necessary Scheme, New Lodger (sarcastically)—Is this all the soap there is in the room? Landlady (decidedly )—Yes, sir; all I allow for one room, New Lodger—Well, I’ll take two more rooms, I’ve got to wash my face in the morning. —Comic Cuts. Self Denial. ‘‘How do I know that you really love me?’’ she asked. ‘‘What assurance have I that you would be willing to make sacrifices and endure hardships for my sake?”’ He looked at her in reproachful as- tonishment and exclaimed: ‘*What more can you ask? Haven’t I for six months refrained from laying violent hands on your little brother?’’— Washington Star Laying on of Hands. An exchange says that ‘‘layin on 0’ the hands’’ for complaints, especially in children, is now taking the place of Christian science. A mother cured her boy of a bad habit by one dose. She laid her left hand on the boy’s neck, her right hand on a substantial slipper, and laid the slipper where it would do the most good. It effected a cure, and a re- lapse is not likely to occur. Odd Testimony. In the course of her testimony in a federal court a Kentucky girl said: ‘Pa runs a distillery aud ma shoots revenue detectives. Pa never would have got caught ef ma hadn’t gone bunt- in squirrels fer breakfast. Pa drinks some, aud then him and ma fights, end then pa swears off.’’—Atlanta Constitu- tion. What De Would Do. Sunday School Teacher—Johnny, if @ boy should knock you down what would you do? Johnny—Missus, I ain’t no boaster— 80 dis is on de dead—butef I was keeled over I’d lay dere just nine seconds and den I'd get up and swat ’im fer keeps. —Adams Freeman. Of Course He’s Worthy. ‘Do you think he’s worthy cf our daughter?’’ asked the old gentleman doubtfully. “Worthy!’’ exclaimed Mrs. Bloomer, as if astonished at the question. ‘“‘ Why, he has a record of 26 century runs.’’— Chicago Post. Willing to Aid Him. “T hope I see you well,’’ he said fiu- ently to the old farmer leaning on his hoe. “‘T hope you do,’’ was the unexpected answer, ‘‘but if you don’t see me well, young man, put on specs. ’’--Tit-Biis, The Apparent. ‘*He must not see too much of me,”’ mused the wise virgin. Accordingly she was very careful te have the stripe of her gowns run up and down, for bodes wisdom she had em bon pcoint.—Detroit Journal. Hateful Wretch. **Poor Ruby is threatening to go back to her mother, and I wouldn’t blame her one bit if she did.’’ ‘‘What is the trouble?’’ ‘‘Her husband calls her Rube,’’— Cincinnati Enquirer. The Old Fashioned Way. ‘“*‘What was yer daddy lickin ye for?’’ asked the half grown boy. The other half grown boy answered, ‘Oh, he was jist provin to me that the whale really did swaller Joner.’’—In- dianapolis Journal. Know Thyself. Two next door neighbors quarreled, and one of them exclaimed excitedly: **Call yourself a man of sense! Why, you’re next door to an idiot. ’’—Tit-Bits. Two Wishes.
