Willi this issue The Advance starts upon its sixteentn year of piiblieation. Daring these past jeara the paper was never perused by more readers or belter recognized as an advertising inediuDi than it is to-day, and our subscription Hst m open to all who wish for proof of this assertion. We have tried our best to give a looal newspaper that will meet the views of the majority of our readers, at the same lime keeping in view our motto In this we have met a fair degree of cucccEE, an fnier npon "sweet sixteen " with thfc optimism of youth still coursing through our veins. But sistcen is a coy and modest age and more must not bo said. The Orange Grand Lodge, which met in Coiling wood last week, was tl.f largest gathering of the kind ever keld in lhi» country. A resolution endorsing N. Clark Wallace's actions and strongly upholding his position regarding the Remedial Bill was pass- ed- .>»r. Wiillaoewas again elected Grand Master, and R. Birmingham, Conservative organizer, was re-elect- ed secretary. A strong attempt was made to defeat the vote of censure upon tho government for pushing its remedial legislation, but fortunate for the name of Oiangeism this was not successful. A writer in the Toronto press expresses his unbounded aHtomshmont that Arolii'isli)^) Lang- evin waa not elected secretary in lieu of Mr. Birminghani. This is prob ably undeserved sarcasm, but the atrong coercion element prebeut mak- es it not altogetht'i ihijiihI. Tandelear H*Bor Rolls. S. S. N(i. 9, Artemesia.

The world's greatest source of ainbor is the eliorfs of thu Baltic Sea. Amber is the fiissilized ream of sevnral species of p no-trees. In small quantities it has bt < n found in various parts of the globe, in- cluding! tbe Uiiiloi) States, but up to the prt'sont time no American deposit of amber extensive enough to bo of com mercial value hax been discovered. Quite rucpiilly, however, amber has been fiund at Cape Sable, on the Ma^nthy River in Maryland, and this arouses tho hiipe that it may yot be discovered in payii g quiintitien in this counliy.
