R Robertson intror duced Mr. Wheeler to a guud audience touching on the newly formed organization of tbe Revelstoke Mountaineering Club and its advantages, concluding by Imping that its members would get nearer heaven than tbey were now by climbing. Mr. Wheeler was received witb much enthusiasm and at mice went into his subject of the mountains of the Selkirks, giving a graphic description of the many mighty peaks and glaciers, illustrated hy maguilicent stereopticon pictures. A happy feature uf Mr. Wheeler's lecture is the vein of humor that is spread through his descriptions, autl with the hundred and one anecdotes, of which ho has a vast (und, such a lecture caanol fail to leave its impressiun. He dwelt on the advantages of the Alpine Club and its popularity, urging Canadians to realise more fully what a great asset they had in their mountains. The views thrown on the screen were taken from all parts of the great Selkirk snosi world and were veritable treasures iu that they enabled people to traverse valley, glacier, ravine, peak and sunin it in comfort, «_> realistic were tbe pictures. As a lecturer, Mr Wheeler is second to none, every word being interesting and instructive. He instanced the mountain and stream as the workshop of the country, forming, as they do, rich alluvial doposits round the rivers. A very lengthy series of pictures on the Alpine camp, proved particularly interesting, and showed tho great wurk being done. He explained the sad accident at the Rogers' Puss camp la-t year, saying with sorrow that dis obedience to the guide's instructions had been the main cause.

Manitoba hard wheat is acknowledged the strongest in the wotld— and thut is the kind used for Purity Flour. But that's not all. Every grain of this wheat contains both high- grade and low-grade properties. In separating the high-grade parts from the low-grade the Western Caaada Flour Mills put the hard wheat through a process so exacting that not a single low-grade part has the remotest chance of getting in with the high-grade. Of course Ihis special process is mure expensive In operate hut- it means a lot to Purity fiour users— that's why ive use il. It minus thut Purity Flour is iiuiile entirely of the highest-grade flour parts of the strongest wheat in the world. It means n high-class, strung flour and therefore yields "more bread and better bread." Purity may cost a little more thiin Bimic flours, but results prove it the cheapest aud most ecunuui- ical after all. Western Canada Ollice, Winnipeg, Man.

LOCAL OPTION Dr. Spencer's Address Brings to Light Startling Features Dr. Spencer began his address on Thursday with comments upon the evils arising out ol the present method of handling the liquor traffic, instancing in particular the vicious manner in which the lumbermen, miners and others ol similar occupations are made the victims of the greed of the liquor sellers. He gave as an instance an offer made by one sawmill owner to give a hotelkeeper, whose place of business was near the sawmill, $,000 for tbe surrender of his liquor license. Tue offer was declined and tt counter proposition presented that il the Baw- mill man would make hie pay cheques payable lor the lollowing live years at the hotel, the proprietor of the hotel would pay him au enormous sum of money. Taking up the Bpread nf the temperance movement Dr. Spencer stated that in the United Stales 35,000,000 people were living in states where either Loo*I Option ur prohibition prevailed and in Canada every province of the Dominion had provision for temperance legislation in the different municipalities should such municipalities choose to enact it, except the Province of British Columbia. The province ol Prince Edward Island under total prohibition had recently hoisted the Hag at top mast over every gaol in the province in consequence of these gaols being without inmates whilst at the same time the Province ol British Columbia under a license law had the gaols overflowing and the prisoners moved from one place to the other to Hull room fur tbe ever increasing crowd. In consequence of bucIi a .-lain of affairs in British Columbia whilst other provinces had taken a forward movement iu the cause ot temperance a convention of temperance workers was formed last fall at the Cnas'. and the Lucal Optiun League ol B. 0. waB formed with district uuious throughout the Province. From such local unions delegates were Bent tu Victoria upon the open- iug of the Legislature. To the number ol 150 tbey waited upon the Government and presented a petition with 35,000 names asking for a local option law. Following this premutation uf the caBe a email delegation of men interested in the liquor trallic with 100 telegrams Irum different parts of the province waited upon the government and asked that nothing be done in tbe manner asked lor in the petition. After taking the matter i into consideration the government decided to meet the wishes ol the liquor interests rather than those ol the 35,000 voters who had signed the lucal option petition. A promise wae however given to put the matter to a plebiscite uf the people. This would likely take place at the lime ol the next Provincial elections. Dr. Spencer made an appeal to all good citi/.eiiB fur the financial support which would be necessary to carry on the campaign thus thrust upon the country and stated that whilst tbe Local Option League of British Columbia was asking only tbe modest sum ol $6,000 to Becure for each municipality tbe right to say whether licenses should he issued or not, the liquor interests were organizing a fund of $Ki,(SKI tu enmlml their efforts. Ot this munificent sum Irom one small town aluiiii a contribution of $5,000 had been made. In closing the meeting Dr. Spencer promised to take up nn Wednesday evening al the V.M.C.A. a general uutline ol the work to be done and the results thut might be accomplished il all church workers and temperance people would get together for a common cause. THE WEDNESDAY MEETINtl Rev. Dr. Speuoer, travelling secretary ol tbe Looal Option League of British Columbia, addressed a meetiug on Wednesday evening in the gym- uaBium of the Y.M.C.A. Although there were other counter-attractions there waB a fuir attendance. Suitable mueic waa rendered hy a male quartette. The speaker took as his subject "Problems of B.C." After riferring briefly to euch subject as the Land Question, Railway Construction, Fdu- cation and Religion, he turned to the real subject of his remarks under the heading oi "The Drink Traffic." Dr. Spencer Baid that the term Local Option was not fully understot d by a large number of people who be called upon to vote upon the question at some time in the ueur future. It was the object of the meeting to explain the situation. Local option means that the peuple of each locality are given the optiun ol Baying whether licences shall be granted in such lucalities lur the sale ol intoxicating liquor. An instance was given of a district in B. C. which, although not under a local uptiun law had in reality local optiun results. That place was Summerland where there were nu liquur licences, no gauls and uu police ullicers. The forward move of temperance feeling was evinced by Ihe results of the municipal elections in such towns as Revelstoke, Nanaimo and New iV'estrainster. Speaking of the difficulties tu be met wilh by thuse wurking lor the temperance cause, Dr. Spencer stated that iu Victoria the liquor men had asked a wholesale house tu dismiss an employee who hud been circulating a local option petition, but were met by the reply that a.) lung as the young man did his wo k during wurking huurs he was ui liberty to employ bis time as he wished while uut on duly. In Vernon the Bohool trustees were asked to dismiss u teacher because he was a lucal option worker. In New Westminsters government official was elected os alderman on the temperance pUtlurm and the liquur interests at unoe waited upon the Guvernment tu Becure ihis mini's withdrawal either trum the alderraahlc board or frum uis government position. Referring to lhe Qottenberg system which was to have the consideration ul the government, Dr. Spencer Baid that much uf the goud results which were attributed tu thai system were in reality due to lucal uptiun which waB in operation in districts adjoining those under the Qottenburg systim. If credit were honestly given lor the goud HCCurnpliBlied in the respective districts, it wnulil he seen that Inenl option was the pnwer fur guud and nut so noticeable the uther system. Touching upon thu claim made thai. tLe Scnit Act years agu wus a failure the speaker claimed that the Act wus weak in its administrative feat urea and thai the Scutl Act as nuw in force was wurking well in the districts Ittvured by such law. The lucal optiun bill which the government was asked to puss was strung in its administrative features and if brought inin effect with the support of the temperance workers throughout the districts, should make a power tor good. Iu closing, an appeal was made blithe loyal support ol all good living people in the t (fort to butter the moral atmosphere uf the Province hy taking uwaj the evils uf the liquur trallic No Limit But the Roof London, April 10—Joseph Martin, K.C., addressing Stratford Liberals, declared himself uu nut and uut Irce trader, favored votca fur women, denounced oolonial preference as a policy of greed and stillishness and would abolish the House ol Lords.

The birds will be brotif lit .' on Brooks station, a point uhnni ball way between Calgary and Kdmnnton,when they are especially pleutiful. It is expected tlint 50 pairs wiil be imported "The native species ol prairit chicken had become pretty iveii sbol out twu years ugn,'' says the provincial game warden, "and we found it necessary to replenish with birds imported from Alberta Last year we imported 80 pairs, and they did very well. "Wc are putting the prairieohioken into the Nicola, Asborolt and Kuiu loops districts, where the climate isdry and where there is a guud deal ol Open Country. There are many guides in these districts where Ihere is plenty ol scrub to afford protection to the birds during the winter," There will probably be no open sea- sun Iur prairie chicken (ur a couple ol years, an the government desires to give the birds a good opportunity to increase.
