there will be ocoasianal timoa of p es"

must bo made, but taking it as a rale
DIM will be accomplished on the farm
if the period of labor is restricted to the
limit fined by Mr. Drury than if it is
prolonged to the unreasomet le extent
formerly prevailing.Not only this, but
less diffionity will ba experienoed m se-
curing a supply of labor. It cannot
be expeeted, no matter what the respea-
tive scale of wages inay be, that the
farm can compete with the faotory in
the labor market as long as the work on
farm is never done. All toilers should
have, outside the hours necessary for
sleeping and eating, some time they can
oall their own; and this is impossible
where the work of the day begins before
seven in the morning and runs beyond
six iu the evening.

NOTES ANO COM MENTS
The Huron oonnty oonnoilis preparing
to make a special claim for participation
in the money being distributed by the
Government under the Highway Im-
provement Act. The county built its
roads and handed them over to the local.
municipalities some years ago, and will
now claim a proportion from the Govern•
ment to assist them in constructing
permanent bridges where necessary on
the improved roads. The claim is a
reasonable one, that should be consider•
ed by the Government. Good bridges
are as essential as good roads. -Muni.
oipal World.
The serious conditions due to the
spread of tuborouloeis are indicated by
Dr, Chisholm's etatament that 49 out of
every 50 Canadians Buffering from the
disease are still unprovided with a000m-
modation in sanitaria. They are outside
spreading the disease among their fel-
tome, Forty thousand Canadians are
cffiioted with tuberculosis to -day, and
8,000 die from it every year. Taber-
onlosis is largely preventable, and the
dissemination of sanitary knowledge is
an effective instrument to that end.
Typhoid and other deadly diseases are
largely avoidable by proper precautions.
Public ignorance is in great part respon-
sible for the large mortality from com-
mon ailments. The need for an
energetic and persistent policy seems to
be felly established. -Toronto News.
Tho Montreal Gazette, which is us-
ually very accurate in its political pre
diotions has this to say as to the pro-
gramme of the Ontario Government. It
says: The work of the present session of
the Oatario Legislature will be pushed
ahead with all expedition and an effort
will be made to bring thewwork of this
Parliament to a close by the end of
March. From an official source it has
been learned that the important mea-
sures arid, for the most part now before
the Legislature. The reports are being
rnahed to completion and the Ministers
are at work upon the estimates, which
will be brought in at the earliest possible
moment. There will be as little debat-
ing as possible. The "hot stuff" will be
kept for the hustings, and a provincial
election is looked for the first week in
June.

Here is a simple home-made mixture
as given by an eminent authority on
Kidney diseases, who makes the state-
ment in a New York daily newspaper,
that it will relieve almost any case of
Kidney trouble if taken before the stage
of Bright's disease. c He atetes that snob
symptoms as lame back, pain in the side,
fregneht desire to titillate, especially at
night ; painful and discolored urination,
are readily overoome. Here is the
recipe; try it.
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half
ounce; Compound Kargen, one ounce;
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces. Take a teaspoonful after each
meal and at bedtime.
A well known druggist here in town
is authority that these ingredients are
all harmless and easily mixed at home
by shaking well in a bottle. This mix-
ture has a peculiar healing and soothing
effect upon the entire Kidney and Urin-
ary structure, and often overcomes the
worst forms of Rheumatism in just a
1.ttle whsle. This mixture is said to

pleased to learn that there is at least one
dreaded disease that science has been
able to care in all its stages, and that is
Catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Care is the
only positive ewe now known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being a
constitutional disease, requires a con-
stitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces of
the sy'etem, thereby destroying the foun-
dation of the disease, and giving the
patient strength by building up the con-
stitution and assisting nature in doing
its work. The proprietors have so mnoh

Rah dressing, bat daintness and sorapn-
lons neatness iu her personal appearance.
I lose patience, says a writer in the
February Delineator, with the woman
who wilfully refusals to ba oareful about
the little things. She knows how to
choose- her clothes and how to wear
them, yet does not do so, Yon meet
her today looking radiant, dtstiaguish-
ed, beautifully dressed. You meet her
two weeks later, and it is with diffioalty
that you recognize -either the woman or
the clothes. Her gown is wrinkled, her
shoes have not been cleaned, and it is
only too obvious that she does not take
the trouble to keep them on shoetrees.
A button is missing from ona glove,
and an ever -widening rip shows on the

Toronto Saturday Night.
Although since he has held the pos-
ition of registrar of deeds he has strict ly
and conscientiously obeyed the Garrow
resolution, time was when there was
no more picturesque figure on the party
political platform than Mr. Peter Ryan.
A hard hitter and a keen, resourceful
debater, he was a formidable opponent,
though, because he fought fair and
never hit below the belt, he never lost a
friend nor made an enemy. Pages
might be filled with anecdotes, well
worth the telling, of his campaign ex-
periences. Here is a sample:
Daring the contest' in Centre Toronto,
1882, when the late Roaert Hay and the
late Sir J. D Edgar were the candidates,
the colored vote in "the ward" was an
important but somewhat doubtful factor.
One Sunday a number of prominent
Liberal workers called on Mr. Ryati and
urged him to attend a oolored people's
meeting, which was held that night.
Though he did not hanker for the job,
Mr. Ryan consented on conditions that
they would not ask him to speak. Bat,
man proposes, eto. Hardly had Mr.
Ryan and his friend been seated' when,
the colored elcquenoe having become ex-
hausted, the chairman called upon
Alderman Ryan (he was a city fath 3r
then). There was nothing else for it,
and the alderman had to go forward.
First, he expressed his pleasure, even
his delight, at being present with his
colored friends, more especially since
his "race" and theirs had muck in com-
mon. Both had suffered grievously at
the hand of the same Sassenach oppress-
or. It was the Saxon who had implanted
negro slavery in North America; it was
the Saxon who had trampled upon the
liberties in Ireland.
"Bat, my colored fellow citizens,"
he went on, "if your raoe and mine have
had dark days in our history, we have
had our bright ones as well. Yon and
we have written many splendid glorious
pages in the history of the world. When
England was struggling to maintain her
prestige 011 the continent of Europe,who
did mdre for the glot'y of England's
arms, who showed greater valor and
heroism, than Edward the Black Prince
(great applaase)? When Scotland was
straggling for her „liberties against the
tyrant, Edward, who so ably seconded
the heroic efforts of Bruce, who was so
heroically in the fore of the forefront of
the battle, as the Black Douglass
(tremendous cheers and shouts of
Glory')?"
On their way home from the meeting
one of Mr. Ryan's friends, a Scotohman,
said to him: "I doot, Meister Ryan, ye
were a bit aff in yer history the nicht.
I'm no sure aboot the Black Prince, for
I'm no well posted in English history.
for a' I
been neeger, r
ha a
i ht eg
HemO,
ken. But I're sure the Black Douglas
was na a neeger; he was a Sootchman."
Compulsory notification of all caves
of Tabercnlosis oocnring with the
Province.
The care, necessary control and nurs-
ing of those who have not the means to
provide such for themselves.
Enforced disinfection of premises in
every case upon removal, recovery or
death of the subjects of disease.
The supervision of the home treatment
of such oases by especially trained nurses
connected with local boards of health,
who would attend to the proper earsy-
ing out of precautionary measures under
the adyiee and direction of attending
phyeioiane, where such are' employed.
Practical measures for the education
of the people, and more especially the
subj ecce of the disease with a view to
their own safety and that of their fam-
ilies and the public generally.
Legislation encouraging the establish-
ment and maintainance of district sani-
taria, with such an equitable adjustment
of the cost in connection therewith as
will encourage immediate action being
taken.
Such is the outline of a policy whioh
the provincial board of health have
recommended to the government for
the control of the "white plague."
Limewater is not only frequently pre-
soribel for young babies, but is also
often given to older ohildren, the addi-
tion of a small quantity to hot or cold
milk rendering it lighter and more di-
gestible. The only drawback to its use
is the fact that, to be efficacious, the
linrewater must be fre,sh, and for this
reason only a small amount should be
prepared at a time.
Freed from Piles
THE JOY OF IT.
The utter misery and despair of the sufferer
frompp iles or hemorrhoids can never be des-cribed. Not only the intense
itching and
ttiegng, not only the dread of a surgical
operation, but the whole system seems to be
underntirted by this horrible disease.
The joy which cured ones experience on
being freedfrom itching, bleeding and protrud-
ing piles is told in thousands of letters received
in regard to

SHORTER HOURS ON THE FARM
In an address at a Farmers' Institute
meeting, held in Whitby, E. C. Drury,
declared that the shortage
in
the supply
y
of farm labor had prejudiced one good
effect, in oompelling the general adop
tion of the ten-hour system on farms.
Speaking from his own experience, Mr.
Drury said the reduction in the hours,
instead of reducing the amount of labor
performed, had rather btonght about an
opposite result; -
more is being
acowo
m'
pbished at present, on some farms, with
work beginning at Eleven and ending M
Ids, than ander the old plan of working
from gnu to sun.
That Mr. Drury is tight in his. asser-
tion will be acknowledged by all who
have had experience of labor in cities
as well se on the farm. No man can
work twelve or fourteen hours a day,
day after day, and move smartly;
hnnlan nature will not stand it. As a
matter of foot, when such hours were
the rale on the farm, men did not move
as quickly as in the factories where the
ten•hoar systent existed. Of oonnee

HAPPY MONTHS.
An Odd Cuetom Observed In England.
et Christmas Time:
"Happy mouths" Is the uaul.s applied
to the little :wince pies made at l:hriet-
tnas time throughout Engl;tnd and
served to auy guests who may call at
the .house during the holidays.
The saying is that for every oue of
these tiny pies oue eats a happy month
will come during tile year, only the
pies Must be given • to the one who
eats them.
When one calls at the house the little
pies are, brought forth with a glass of
wine or a cup of tea, and, however
well satisfied one :nay already he as
regards one's appetite or how many of
these "happy month" pies he has al -R
ready eaten, it is considered a marked,
broach of etfryuette to refuse the little
pie, although one is allowed to take it
home and eat it later. This, however,
is not very often done, for who would
refuse the coming of a happy month
by refusing to overtax the stomach for
just one more little pie?
In some parts of England these little
pies ttre literally made by the dozen,
so there will be plenty of them for
family and friends. They are made of
the richest of puff paste, too, which, at
the best of times, is tin indigestible
goody, and the crust is filled with a
mince meat filling that is even richer
than the crust.

Heart Strength, or Heart Weakness. means No
Strength, or Nerve Weakness -nothing more,, Po
s.
not one weak heart in a hundred is, in i
self, actually diseased. It is almost always
hidden tiny little nerve that really is all at fault.
This obscure nerve -the Cardiae, or Heart New
-simply needs. and must have, more power, more
stability, more controlling. more governing
strength. without that the Heart must continue
to fail, and the stomach and kidneys also have
these same controlling nerves.
Thclearly explains why, as a medicine, D
Shoop's Restorative has in the past done so much
for weak and ailing Hearts. Dr. Shoop first sough
the cause of all this painful, palpitating, suffocat-
ing heart distress. Dr. Shoop's Restorative -this
popular prescription -is alone directed to these
weak and wasting nerve centers. It builds
It:strengthens; it offers real, genuine heart help.

CEYLON ELEPHANTS.
The Only Species In Which the Males
Have No Tusks.
Witat a sight for a Ceylon elephant
hunter Would be the first view of a
herd of African elephants -alt tuskers!
It is a singular thing that Ceylon 10
the only part of the world wbere the
male elephants have no tusks. They
have miserable little grubbers project-
ing
rojecting two or three inches from the upper
jaw and inclining downward.
Nothing produces either ivory or
horn in fine specimens throughout Cey-
lon. Although some of the buffaloes
have tolerably fine heads, they will
not bear a comparison with those oe
other countries. The horns of the na-
tive cattle are not above four inches
in length.
The elk and the spotted deer's ant-
lers 'are small compared with deer of
their size in India. This Is the more
singular as, it is evident from the geo-
logical formation that at some remote
penioll Ceylon was not an island, but
formed a portion of the mainland. It
is thought that there must be elements
wanting In the Ceylon pasturage for
the formation of ivory. -Ceylon Man-
ual.

The Vienna men of law once dis-
tinguished themselves in a unique man-
ner. A Wachau peasant had been
caught in the criminal act of throwing
stones at rabbits. lie bad not bit
.them, and the rabbits had decamped
without so mach as suspecting the at-
tack,
ttack, but the peasant was hauled be-
fore the high courts of justice. His de-
feuse was ,that the rabbits had been
close to his garden and that he had
only tried to frighten the greedy ro-
dents off his cabbages. All the same,
be was condemned to three days' im-
prisonment. The peasant appealed
against the sentence, but in vain. If a
rabbit had been killed, said the authori-
ties,
uthorities, the peasant would certainly have
stolen it, and stealing a rabbit was an
unlawful action. Ind thus the man
from Wachau went to prison for three
days. and the wise judges of Vienna
bounded into fame for their method of
applying the "!f". and "and" theory.

The Sundial at Vale.
About the time of the Yale bicenten-
nial celebration in 1901 some wag pre-
sented the university with a perfectly
good sundial, which was elaborately
advertised in the New York papers and
with due solemnity set up in a con-
spicuous place on Berkeley oval. "The
blamed thing never did take very
well," the Record explained apropos, of
the trouble sundry undergraduates got
into in trying to run off with the main-
spring of it, and the grotesque grandeur
of this expensive and beautiful piece
of architecture set the Owl off into
paroxysms of laughter in which the
campus followed with a will. "Shay,
Jack, what time is it?" "I can't tell
you, old fel'; this sundial's stopped."
And, "Hey, fresh, out there by the sun„
dial! Strike a match and see if it isn't
bedtime!" are typical. --E. R. Embree
