Subject for study this week throughout
the world: "How and why should we
pray."—Matt. 6: 5—15.
Daily readings. -Mon., Phil. 4 : 10—19 ;
Tues., Deut. 8: 6—20 ; Wed., Heb. 13 : 5, 6
14—IG, 20—21 ; Thu., Acts 13; 44 ; 52 ; Fri.
1 Kings 21 : 1—10 ; Sat., Matt.   27 : 11—18.
HOW AND WHY SHOULD WE PRAY ?
How?—Not as the hypocrites do, i.e.,
using vain repetitious for vain glory. Not
to be seen of men.    Not for human reward.
We should pray to God, not to men. In
the spirit of humility aud sincerity. In
childlike faith. We should be definite.
Have the mind properly prepared for it.
We should pray in secret as well as in
public. Always "without ceasing." To
God as a Father. In the name of Christ
and for His sake. With fervor and zeal.
With choice words. Remembering that
He knows our needs and our hearts. In
submission, "Thy will be done." With
determination to do our part to get the
answer. Pray in a forgiving spirit. Aloug
the line of His revealed will. Reverently.
With thaukgiving aud adoration.
Why should we pray ?
Because God commands it; Christ has
made the way for it. Christ has set us
the example, and has given us a model to
pattern after. Prayer in itself is necessar
ily right ; we must pray if we hope for the
favor of God.     "Ask and ye shall receive."
Because it is uot only a Christian duty,
but a Christian privilege.
Because there is great pleasure in the
performance of it.
Because the spirit as well  as   the  act of
prayer, is conducive to the   highest  happi
uess in ordinary life.
Because the blessings received through
prayer in the past nhould stimulate us to
more frequent asking.
Because prayer is the   means  of  virtue.
For where the true spirit of  devotion   pre
vails, it cannot fail to render a   man   more
amiable,"and promotes the   purification   of
his mind.—Eudeavor Herald.

DOMINION    PARLIAMENT.
ALBERTA'S   BUTTER INDUSTRY.
Direct     Trade    With   Japan    Established.
If one thing more than auother   has the
tendency   to   show   people   at    a   distance
that Alberta  is  not   dependant  upou   the
same market for her produce as Manitoba,
and the Northern States,   and consequent
ly   is    not    therefore    handicapped    by  a
longer haul to   market,  it  is  the growing
demand of Alberta produce in the markets
of Japan and   British   Columbia.    The   D.
M. Ratcliffe Co.   exporters  find   that   they
cannot  secure  one  pound  of    butter   for
every hundred that the  Japanese   market
asks for and this demand is awakening the
people   to   the   necessity  of    organization,
by   means  of   which    creameries    can   be
established     at    all     convenient    points*
Already   Red    Deer,    Innisfail,   Lacombe,
Olds    and   other   places   have    interested
themselves   iu    the     matter,    reeogniziug
how   important      it   is     that    creameries
should be established, so   that   a    uniform
quality or brand of   butter   may   be   made
for export.    The country is rich in natural
grasses and is   destined   to   be   one   of   the
best dairying countries in   the   world,   and
it   is   gratifying to   fiud   that   the    people
recoguize this so early, aud  are   going   the
right   way   to    establish    that   reputation.
By individual farmers   manufacturing butter and  exported    it,   the  country   would
surely   not    earn    that    reputation   it deserves.     Not because   we    think   that   the
farmers are not   particular   enough   in   i.s
manufacture; but   because   they   have   not
the facilities.    They must wait until   they
have  sufficient  cream   to  make  it  worth
their while churniug.    Each brand is    not
the same.     Some people are  much    better
butter  makers   than    others.    Some    use
coloring others do not, and so if   the   repu
tatiou of a district depends on    individual
farmers, the   country   as   a   whole   is    the
loser;    both   in     profit    and    reputation.
By    the    establishing of     creameries    an
uniform   brand   of  butter  is   made.    The
strictest   attention   is   paid   to   cleanliness
in the articles used   in   manufacture,    proper recepticles are   made   to   keep   it   cool
and free from taint, it requires   less   hand
ling, and being shipped in bulk in a proper
manner reaches its destination   the   proper
article.    It is    consequently    worth   more
than it otherwise would,   aud   adds   to   the
reputation of the country,   aud    the   profit
of the   producer.    Success to   the  cream
eries sav we!—Red Deer Review.
Ottawa March 28.—The House resumed
yesterday after the Easter adjournment.
Mr. Foster delivered his buget epeech,
explaining the changes that had been made
in the customs tariff. He said the government intended to adhere to the protective
principal, but some changes had been
found necessary. A reduction of 15 per
cent haa been made in the duties on agricultural implements. Considerable reduction has also been made in iron, and this
the government expects will reduce the
cast of implements. Binder twine and coal
oil remain unchanged, and lumber, as a
concession to Manitoba, has been put on
the free list. Reductions have also been
made in the wollen and cotton schedules.
The duty on tobacco and liquors has not
been altered, but tbe inland revenue taxes
will be increased. Sir Richard Cartwright
moved the adjournment of the debate.
Ottawa, Mar. 29.—In the llouseyesterday
Sir Richard Cartwright continued the tariff
debate. He claimed that the relief which
would be afforded to the country by the
changes in the tariff was not adequate to
remedy the conditions which have made
reductions in the duties necessary. He
claimed that Canada in order to be prosperous must have free trade with the whole
world, free to sell and buy anywhere and
everywhere, and he announced this to be
his policy. Sir Richard accused the government of being lax in their efforts to
extend Canadiah trade, and of taxing the
people to enrich a few manufacturers and
maintain corrupt methods In concluding
his speech Sir Richard moved au amendment embodying the principles which he
had enunciated
It is reported that the sugar manufacturers of Montreal are very angry over the
proposed changes in tbe sugar schedules.
Sir Richard Cartwright accused the
government of increasing the duty on democrat wagons under pressure from the chief
Conservative whip.

The death of Archdeacon Sandys, of
Chatham, recalls to mind an incident in
which the well known divine played an
important part many years ago. It was
in 1841 or '45, and Mr. Sandys had a
number of parishes under his chargeaud
as the roads were fewT ami far between
he generally made his trips on horseback. He was returning oue afternoon
to Chatham from Clearvilla and on tho
road came across three men who were
ditching, Each of them had drunk
enough liquor to make bim ugly, and w hen
Mr. Sandys came along they made many
uncomplimentary remarks. He paid no
attention to them, but just as he passed
they showered a lot of dirt at bim.
This was xuore than he could stand, and
hitching his horse to a tree close by be
returned, and single handed be gave the
three rowdies a beautiful tthr„a...nr,
1 He was a man of wonderful physique,
and be laid out the trio in true pugilistic
style. Tbe chances aro tbat afterwards
the rowdies did not insult bim.
