Thursday, the 4th January,

To all those requiring aid to vision. The hold that Laurance’s Lenses have taken upon the spectacle-wearing public of Great Britain and the testimonials from the greatest of the English Oculists, among the faculty in Ewgland and in this Prov- ince, must be conclusive that nothing better in airs to vision can be obtained, and when in addition such Lenses are selected and aciapted to the eye by Mr. Laurance personally, Mr. Rankin is convinced the acme of comfort will be obtained by every persox requiring the use of Spectacles or Eye-glasses. Mr Laurance’s mode of procedure is to test the capabilities of both eyes, and not only to determine the exact power required for each eye, but also to select the particular Lenses best adapted to arrest decay and to give sight without discomfort, Mr. Laurance is noi a stranger to Prince Edward Island in his capacity as an Optician. For years he visited this Province, as tes'imonials from (ur leading medical men and citizens, as far back as 1854, cap testify. Mr, Laurance is one of the leading Opticians of England, and his visit here is for one purpose, and that is the introduction of his celebrated Lenses through REGULARLY ACCREDITED AGENTS THROUGHOUT THE DUMINION. Persons who baye tried in vain to be suited with Lenses are particularly requested to call at C. D. Rankin’s, and as MR. LAURANCES VISIT CANNOT BE PROLONGED. BEYOND A FEW DAYS, it behoves those requiring his assistance to call as early as possible REFERENCES AND TESTIMONIALS, as to the Quality of the Lenses, etc., are coupled with the names of the following eminent Medical men and residents of Nova Scotia :—

Chief Justice Sir William Young. Rev. Dr. Hill, Rector of st. Paul's, Halifax.

tinctly Canadian. It is not in any narrow spirit nor with clannish or sectional views that we trace our Scottish origin or cherish our Scottish traditions. We would gladly recognize that here we are fellow-citizens with men from other lands, but with our brothers from other parts of the empire, with our neighbors who come to us from the south, speaking our language, and with the sons of sunny France and patient Germany, whose lot is linked with ours, we are called to build up in this good land a healthy national life. But we would also re- cognize that it is by nourishing the virtues which have been Scotland’s power and crown that we can best contribute our share to the common weal. Though not called to win our freedom, since we inherit it, we are called to guard and rightly use our free institutions, and since our governments, whether Civic, Provincirl or Federal, must be such as the people choose to make them, we should feel constrained to elect only those to office whom free men would wish

let their love of country embrace this land in which they live with the land which they have left. Wehave here a country that justifies large national views and hopes, but to fulfil our duty as a people we need more than mere territory however rich, or

of government, however good, or parlia- ments however wise; or connection with a great empire, however broad its domain or renowned its history. We need _ that national life that is the outcome of high national character; that life to which every virtue of every citizen contributes. Let every Scotchman in Canada strive to re- produce here that national life which they admire at home, and then, thongh fondly loving the land from which they came, they shall look with as deep affection on this land in which they live, while, confident that the destinies of both lands shall con- tinue to he united, they may inclnde both in the one sentiment, borrowed from the Psalmist, ‘‘If I forget the, O Jerusalem, let my right hand torget her cunning!

—Among other good things, the Editors Drawer in Harpers Monthly for January contains the following :—

Yarmouth, Nova Scotia, has a witty and wide-awake Presbyterian elder of pro-; nounced Scotch antecedents, who, although a persistent advocate of the ‘‘ Westminster Confession,” will occasionally, for conveni- ence sake, and from an innate love of social religious intercourse, attend the meetings of his Methodist brethren, At a recent prayer-meeting of the latter body of Chris- tians that was held as preparatory to a cen- tennial service in commemoration of the progress of Methodism in Nova Scoiia, the presiding minister dwelt eloquently upon the wonderful growth and prosperity of the Methodist Church, and its great founder, John Wesley. He also expressed thankful. ness that to-day there were one hundred and nine Methodist ministers in Nova Scotia. | The meeting thus very naturally assumed a denomina'ional character, and the minister asked our good Presbyterian brother to lead | in prayer at the close. The elder complied, and after thanking the Lord for the many good things he had just heard ‘‘ about this branch of Zion,” he added, with much} depth of feeling, ‘‘ O Lord, we thank Thee | for John Wesley, but we especially thank | Thee for John Knox; we thank Thee for | the hundred and thirteen Presbyterian minis- ters who are preaching the Word of Life thronghout our land. Amen.” Presby-| terianism will not lose any lustre by that | earnest elder, even in a Methodist prayer- meeting. |
