PLAY BILLIARDS.
french Physicians Are sorry That
the Game Is Declining In the
French Halls.

Somebody has discovered that peo-
pie in France are not playing billiards
so much as they did formerly. Over
this announcement has arisen a lam
entation.
Physicians have joined in it as well
as lay admirers Of the game. They
declare that its disappearance would
he a misfortune from a sanitary point
Of view.
The game, they say. gives just the
exercise they need to a great number
of people who without it would take no
exercise at all While involving no
severe physical exertion, it keeps the
muscles in shape, stimulates the cir
culation, helps the digestion and re
quires just enough mental effort to
give the nervous system a rest from
the ordinary worries Of life. In proof
Of all Of which they cite the good
spirits usually exhibited about a bill
lard table.
For elderly people, for the stout
who cannot take much exercise, bill
lizards is pronounced an excellent tonic.
So the friends of the game are preach.

Methodist Church Jottings.
tBy REV G. e. scuDDERJ

The communion service that was
not held last week because Of the
Hines of the pastor will be held next
Sabbath morning. It is a fitting
time to question ourselves with ref
erenoe to our relation to God and
eternal things
The evening topic is, Sacrifice
for God"
At the union week of prayer SER
vices Mr.. Smead and myself, have de-
cided to follow the general theme
suggested for the churches, but to
subdivide according to the following
plan. The general theme is the
Christian church. The following
are the specific themes:
Sabbath evening Jan. 4th, The
Christian Churoh-Its necessity.
Monday evening. It's Mission.
Tuesday evening. Its Method
Wednesday evening. Its Power.
Thursday evening Its Unity.
Friday evening. It's Catholicity
Sabbath evening, 18th. It's out
look.
We call special attention of the
members of our churches to this an.
nouncenent and ask the heartiesI
CO. operation, that this week may
result in more pronounced loyalty
to the church of Jesus Christ.
On Tuesday evening, the 9th Pre-
siding Elder DR.. Wright will be will
US and preach. We speak for hin
the largest hearing possible, Thost
who heard him last year will be only
too glad to hear him again. Hi'
presence will add greatly to thu
profit of the week.
Let me call attention again to th'
fact that after the week of prayer
special evangelistic services will b'
held IN our church. These meeting
will be open to all. The gospel i
not the sole possession of any on
church, nor is it the privilege o
one, only, to push the claims o
personal salvation We invite tn
support of all who are interested il
the higher spiritual life for them
selves, or the conversion of children
or friends.
At the business meeting of tn
Epworth League held Tuesday even

In Dartess Ireland

The North American is publishing
a series of letters BY Hugh susher.
land on conditions social, industrial
and political as they are in Ireland
The first article was printed Dec 8.
and was followed by others which.
for graphic description and masterly
presentation Of facts. have no paral-
lei in recent newspaper writing
They Will continue until the subject
is fully exploited. Mr.. Sutherland
is familiar 20 newspaper readers.
AS Commissioner for the North
American to the Boer Republic in
the concluding days of Kruger's
Presidency, as a staff correspondent
for the same paper in the mining
districts of-PenDsylvania, his work
attracted widest popular interest as
well as the closest consideration of
the students of economies, political
and otherwise. Mr.. Sutherland is
conservative and of the widest in
telligence. His articles are of unique
interest, as they are characterized
by truth, Prejudice, either for or
against a master ridden race, does
not enter into the work. So far as
one of blood aud flesh may do so,
Mr.. Sutherland has divested himself
of human sympathy and gives the
plain cold facts of the situation.
Ireland's wrongs, her real consti-
tutional injuries and her oppressed
state have not been told of late.
Government espionage, the certainty
of term in Jail, social and business
boycott operate as a press censorship
in Great Britain as thorough, if less
direct, as in autocratic Russia
Newspapers dare not print, CORE
spondents dare not tell the story OF
Ireland's woes. Public speech is a
felony, the printing of Nationalist
newspaper in Ireland crime with
out defence
In order that the truth might be
known, therefore, The North
American commissioned Mr.. Suther-
land as chief of an expedition into
Darkest Ireland. For weeks the
searchers for truth traversed the
country They have touched every
side of every questioe talked poll
tics with the peasant in his cabin
discussed land tenures with the
English owner in London.
They have got at the heart of ont
of the greatest political revolutions
the world has experienced, one tina
is taking place without the worlt
} being aware of it. Fortunately fo
contemporaneous history, there il

North American to print the story.

The report Of Lionel Garden, British
Minister at Havana, shows conclu-
sively that sugar can be produced in
Cuba more cheaply tnan anywhere
else in the world, and that Cuban
planters can get rich on any prices for
sugar which will enable other growers
to live. If this is the case, the ques-
tion aiises whether and how much
we need to "help Cuba"

We do not need to give all
the reasons why SCOTS

The fact that it is the best
