CRESOLENE ANTISEPTIC TABLEh ONTARIO'S MOUNTING EXPEND ITUaE (London Advertiser ) Residents of Ontario who are of voting age, will recall the aensational prophesies of direct taxation uttered from every platform by the leaders of the Provincial Conservative party. The Governments of Mowat, Hardy and Ross in succession were railed as ependtbrifts and reckless squanderers of the pnblio domain. The politicians who had nothing to do but criticise the expenditure have now the control of it, and the record is the highest tribute to that of their predeoes- sore, These erstwhile economists have been in office three years, and bave in- creased the expenses of the province by $2 318.229 per annum, as against an in- crease of $1 841,181 for the previous seventeen years. This table tells the story : Receipts Expenses $3,602 662 $3,554 835 4,103 478 3 717,404 4 201 080 4,003 729 4 466 043 4 038,834 4,292,021 4,345 003 5 408,150 4,888 982 5,977.179 5,267,453 5 873 888 5,06,015 7,149 478 6.720,179 8 320,419 7,714,245 1898 1899 1900 1901 1902 1903 1904 1905 1900 1907 it is not strange, it ceases to bear the fruits of suother world. If you will walk in the fields of sin you will find a long task before you picking off the burrs and cockles. Thomas G. Vanston died in Brockville Hospital from injuries received by being struck by a flywheel. The Presbyterian Augmentation Com- mittee (western section) decided that it would rot be possible to grant proposed salary increases to pastors. A. R. Davidson, who handles the land sales for the Canadian Northern Rail- way, reporte the sale of over 280,000 acres of Western land this spring. As a result of troubles with the long- shoremen at Quebec, the 0. P. R. may make Three Rivers its point of call tor the Empresses instead of that town. W. A. Hunt, formerly Chief Clerk of the Accounting Department of the C. N. R., was sent to the penitentiary for two years fcr defrauding the company through false pay checks. There, are now over seven thousand men working on the transcontinental railway contracts of J. D. McArthur east of the oity of Winnipeg, and the number is being increased every day. Ae Mr, Hislop pointed out in the budget debate, the per capita expend- iture increased $1 per head in the thirty-two years prior to 1905, and an equal amount in the next three, Mr. Penes showed that the expenses under the head of civil government bad increased in three years 70 per cent; administration of justice, 20 per oent; education (excluding the uni- versity), 50 per cent; colonization, 11G per cent; agricultural college, 106 per per cent; charities, 39 per Dent; public buildings, 33 per cent, and miscellaneous services, 43 per Dent. Whether this rapid increase of ex- penditure is justifiable or not, no more convincing proof is needed that pre- oeding governments, whatever their faults, administered the affairs of the Province with strict economy, A simple and effective remedy for SORB THROATS AND COUGHS They combine the germicidal value of Cresolene 'with the soothing properties of slippery elm and lice. aiee.

The way in which the Federal Gov- ernment has changed since confedera- tion is rather interesting. In 1867 Sir John Macdonald's total majority of 22 was not strictly a Conservative one, but from that date the party issues have been squarely defined. In 1872 Sir John's majority was 'only six, and in 1874 his party was defeated, the Liberals being returned to power with a major- ity of 60; 1878 saw another big turn- over, when Sir John was returned with the enormous majority of 86. His later majorities were smaller, in 1882 being 67, in 1887 being 41, and ending in 1891 with 31. The Liberals came into power in 1896 with a majority of 34, which was increased to 53 in 1900 and in 1904 to over 60 The figures in Ontario since 1867 are as follows: Date Conservative Liberal 1867 ,,.. 47 36 1872 ....... 38 50 1874 •,-. 24 64 63 25 54 38 38 44 40 37 38 Mr. W.

No man ever served life who was afraid to die. Love always wins, because it is not afraid to lose. The divine law is but the language of divine love. All gain and no pain would make life a sad affair. The only people who count are those who can be counted on. Too many find their oonsoience in the convention of others. The door of truth cannot be opened with the key of prejudice. The piety you put on before the mirror will not make you a mirror of piety. Mon will bo honest with one another when they are honest with themeelves Failure is due not so much to missing opportunities as to failure to make them. There is something wrong i when his religion is the poorest about him, Your message will go just into the haute of men s! it has your own. Huffs of people would lose a society but for their periods appreciation. We are all apt to substitute with the faults of others fo with our own.
