Throughout Canada, from the western
boundary of Ontario to the Atlantic Ocean,
there is no name more widely known in tenn
perance and evangelistic work than that of the
Rev. W. A. Dunnett Mr. Dunnett has been
the Grand Vice-Councillor of Ontario and
Quebec in the Royal Templars and SO popular
is he among the members of the order that in
Montreal there is a Royal Templars council
named "Dunnett Council" in his honor. For
more than ten years Mr.. Dunnett has been 60
ing from place to place pursuing his good
work, sometimes assisting resident ministers,
sometimes conducting a series of gospel tenn
perance meetings independently, but always
labOring for the good of his fellows While
in Smiths Falls few months ago in connection
with his work he dropped into the Record Office
for a little visit with the editor. During the
conversation the Record ventured to remark
that his duties entailed an enormous amount of
hard work. To this Mr. Dunnett assented, but
added that in his present physical condition
he was equal to any amount of hard work.
But it was not always so, he said, and then
he gave the writer the following little per-
sonal history with permission to make it
public. He said that for the past thirteen
years he had been greatly troubled with
pain in the region of his heart, from which
he was unable to get any relief. At times it
was dull, heavy pain, at others sharp and
severe. Oftentimes it rendered him unfit
for his engagements, and at all times it
made it difficult to move. His trouble was
always visible to the public and frequently
when conducting service he would give out
and doctors had to be called in to attend
him, This occurred to him in the Yonge
Street Church, Toronto; the Baptist Church,
Woodstock, N. B.; the Methodist Church,
Carleton Place, Ont. On another occasion

1t is one thing to have a COW run
down in condition from lack of food
and it is another to have her thin
by giving large quantities of milk
in all pure, rich, milk giving foods
like wheat bran, ground oats, oil
meal, good clover hay or other ma
terials. In the one case she is poor
and faint and gives little or no milk
while in the other condition she is
strong, hearty and active and full
of rich blood. Milk is an elabora-
ton from the blood is made from
the food.
Because a COW is allowed to go
dry is no reason why she should be
allowed to run down in condition.
She needs to be kept gaining in
order to bear the strain of calf bear
ing and starting milk giving again.
Yet under the impression that it is
economy many farmers commence
stinting the ration as soon as the
COW begins to dry up. If she can
be kept alive until grass makes a
sufficient growth to furnish pastur-
age the saving in feed made is con
sidered so much gain.

people in the Franklin Street Congregational
Church, at Manchester, n. Ii. Five doctors
had arrived and were in attendance before
he regained consciousness. In all these cities
and towns the newspapers freely mentioned
his affection at the time Mr.. Dunnett said
he had consulted many physicians, though he
said, to be entirely fair he had never been any
great length of time under treatment by any
one doctor because of his itinerant mode of
life. In the early part of the summer of 1896,
while in Rockville assisting the pastor of the
Wall Street Methodist Church in evangeistic
services, he was speaking of his trouble to a
friend who urged him to try Dr. Williams
Pink Pills, and next day presented him with
dozen boxes. 81 took the pills, " said Mr..
Dunnett, and | declare to you | am well
man to-day. ! used to worry great deal
over the pain about my heart, but that is all
gone now, and | feel like new man" All
this the reverend gentleman told in simple

gested that he let it be known, he rather
demurred, because, as he put it, am almost
afraid to say | am cured and yet there is no
man enjoying better health to-day than | do. 3"
At that time, at Mr.. Dunnett's request
his statement was only published locally
but now writing under the date of Jan. 2ls
from Fitchburg, Mass, where he has been
conducting a very successful series of evan
gelistic meetings he says: " | had held back
from writing in regard to my health, not be

too good to be true that the old time pain

The colored preachers of Brook
lyn and New York are suffering
with a surfelJ of Indignation. In
tact. from this range, the most
prominent characteristic of the
Northern colored divine is t b g
case and celebrity with which he
indignates ON any and all occa-
siOus.
The dusky pulpiteers of Brook
lyn and New York, are of the O.
pihion that Tillman and Wad-
dell ought to be lynched at all
hazards, and so they held a meet
brim.full Of indignation, and said
40. They got their names in the
papers, and Tyllman and Wad-
dell are still unlynched. The only
harm that such displays do is to
the Southern negro. The more
vicious of the race are melted by
these resolvers to violence which,
as has been abundantly demon
strated, reacts to the injury OF
the race. Then more resolutions
are passed and so the endless
chain of "indignation meetings.
goes merrily on.
At the Brooklyn.New York
meeting the colored ministers pro

money to help their Southern
brethren. but it was very notica-

Southern brethren got was "res.

Meantime the Southern negro
will continue, as hitherto, to get

the north and their white sympa
thizers could contract the habit
of attending to their own affairs
and permitting the Southern pee
pie Of both races to do the same
there would speedily be a decrease
in the number of lynchings in the

ings in the North.
For thirty years the Northern
negroes and the Northern whites
have been attempting to solve
the race problem for us and ths
best that they have been able tc
