JÆ! ''r[" ii1'- 4" CANADIAN OIL. Great interest is at present being taken by the investing public in Canadian Oil, more particularly in the East Tilbury district, and we understand that the prospectus of the East Tilbury (Canada) Oilfields, Ltd., will very shortly be issued ta the public. The Board is of exceptional strength, including many well- known names. The property consists of 3,200 acres, and has 52 producing wells. It is pointed out in view of the present demand for oil, the businesslike composition of the Board, and the moderate capital, that the company has every chance of a successful career. The bankers are the National Provincial Bank of England and the Union Bank of Scotland, at whose offices prospectuses can be obtained. The prospectus states that the company is expected to be in a position to pay dividends from the commence- ment of its working the properties, the above- mentioned wells already producing substantial profits. The oil-receiving tanks are connected with the pipe-line of the imperial. Company of Canada, who now purchase the entire output. It is the intention of the company to deepen the existing wells, and to drill a further num- ber, which it is estimated will be sufficient to produce an output of 1,000 barrels of oil per day.

For many years Mr. Rees laboured in the slums of Glasgow, being supported entirely by tlie Wesleyan Central Home Mission Fund. He depicted the tyne of life spent by the people, and gave several irstances of almost miraculous rescues, in many of which the missioner was assisted by his lady deaconess, Sister May." The special mission at the Primitive Methodist Chapel, Pentre, conducted by Mr. Hubball, of Pontypridd, was con- cluded on Monday evening, when the missioner gave The Story of My Life," an excellent lecture full of personal reminiscences and practical lessons.
