members given to Toronto and New
Ontario, It is therefore wide in, its
aoope, holding within its folds wide
possibilities for party advantage, and
it ought therefore to have been d t4't
with, with the impartial machinery
whioh under Sir Wilfrid Laurier has
been provided at Ottawa in fixing the
representation in the House of Commons,
and has for many years been provided
in Great Britian when similar measures
have been Hader consideration. it may
be true that Mr, Whitney in hie delimit-
ation of the oonatitnencies has not gone
so far as many of his followers asked
him to go; it is certain he has gone
further than a non partisan tribunal
would have permitted him to go, This
is made clear from the fact that no one
change is ealeulated to benefit the
Liberal party.
Many of the changes have left the
inequalities of population ,and the shapes
of the ridings, worse than before, and in
euoh oases it ie impossible to oonoeal the
objeot aimed at. Equally transparent is
the purpose in view of dividing the city
01 Ottawa into two separate conetrtnen-
ces, while leaving Toronto with four
constituencies, each elooting two mem•
berg. The overrepresentation given
Toronto is partioularly objectionable.
In the Dominion parliament the oity has
five constituencies, electing one member
each, with the result that in at least
two of these constituencies the Liberal
candidate ku a fighting thanes of win-
ning. With the pity divided into eight
constituencies, there vronld be a reason-
able assurance that a Liberal could be
returned in at least three, but with four
oonstitneneiee as at present constituted
electing two members each, a solid Con-
servative phalanx is as8ared. As a re-
sult the Liberals are praotioally dis-
franchised.
Not only is the representation to be
given Toronto excessive compared with
that given the other cities of the prov-
ince, but it ie excessive compared with
that of Montreal, which oity 18 given
five seats in the Commons and six seats
in Qaebee Legislature, all elected on the
Bingle member basis, and yet Montreal is
much the larger of the two oltise.
In short, nothing whieh has thus far
occurred is more calculated to shake the
faith of the province in the good inten-
tions of the Whitney government than
this same Redistribution bill.

NOTES AND COMMENTS
Atter each a humiliating display of
oowardioe, represented by the gerry-
mander, we should hear the last of the
1 oast that Mr. Whitney is "bold enough
to be honest, and honest enough to be
bold." No premier in the history of
Canada has ever shown the qualities of
political dishonesty 'and cowardice,
implied in hie "fixing" the constituen-
cies in his own favor, and stifling the
true voice of the electorate, .se Mr.
Whitney has done in this closing outrage
of his first term of abuse of power.

We cannot help wondering if the ser-
vices of the chairman of the railway
commission are of greater valve to the
country than those of tke Premier. He
does not get $15,000 for guiding the ship
of state through all the intricate wind-
ings of its tortuous course. Magnates
of the commercial world may get such
salaries, but the Premier of our Domin-

country, has to take a second plane

Gat from any prescription pharmacist
the following:
Fluid Extract Dattlelion, one-half
ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce;
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces.
Shake well in a bottle and take a
teaspoonful dose after each meal and at
bedtime.
The above is considered by an emi-

Some persons, who suffer with the
afflictions may not feel inclined to plaoe
much oonfidence in this mixture, yet
those who have tried it say the results
are simply surprising, the relief being
effected withoit the sltgnteet injury to
the stomach or other organa.
Mix some and give it a trial. It cer-

CONDIVIONS IN CANADA.
Labor 'Gazette Gives Review of the
Year 1907.
The January issue of the Lal)or
Gazette contains an extended review
of the industrial and labor conditions
throughout Canada during the calen-
dar year of 1907. The condition of in-
dustry and of general employment is
described in the opening paragraph of
the article in part as follows: -
During the first nine months of 1907
the general prosperity of trade and in-
dustry
ndustry and the very active conditions
of employment that were more pro-
nounced in 190G than in any previous
year in the history of the Dominion
were continued without abatement.
Prices and wages, which went steadily
upward in 1906, reached still higher
levels in the spring and summer . of
1907.
The Financial Stringency.
With the close of the summer season
however, the growing stringency in
the money markets of the world began
to be felt in Canada in the way of
checking the rapid increase in pro-
duction and equipment, which had
been uninterrupted for some time be-
fore: The yield of wheat and grain in
the Northwest Provinces, and in On
train also, showed a falling off an
compared with 1906, and although the
Atlantic fisheries mid tial mines had
an exceptionally busy year through-
out, with labor in active demand, and
though the volume of traffic and the
earnings of the railway companies
were the largest ever recorded„ the
output of manufactured goods and of
the various metals was less in the
closing months of the year than in the
corresponding season of 1906. The
lumber industry both in British Co-
lumbia and in Ontario and the eastern
Provinces was also quiet throughout
the autumn, with preparations under
way for a smaller cut than last year:
Unemployed In Large Centres.
With the close of the season of out-
door a ctivity, more than the ,usual
number of unemployed were reported
in certain of the larger centres, though
the prolongation of mild weather in
western Canada enabled an unusually
large amount of land to be prepared
for the season of 1908. During the
closing weeks of the year there was tt
noticeable improvement in the general
tone of the labor market and in in-
dustrial and commercial circles follow-
ing upon the somewhat easier finan-
cial conditions. The outlook for 1908
was regarded as very favorable in
view of the large amount of railway
construction and other work in pro-
gress, the vast extent of land still un-
occupied in western Canada, and the
prevailing opinion that the money
shortage would be overcome.
Trade. Disputes During the Year.
The issue also contains a special re-
view of the trade disputes occurring
in Canada during 1907. Altogether,
149 trade disputes, affecting 34,694
workpeople, and causing a loss of
613,986 working clays, occurred in 1907,
compared with 138 disputes affecting
20,014 workpeople and causing a loss
of 489,775 working days in 1906.

Oldest; Protestant Church.
By far the .oldest public building irk
English-speaking Canada, St. Pau11aa1
Halifax, is also the oldest Protestant'
church in that vast region, known
yesterday as British North America.
Erected in 1749, at the first settlement
of the city, and constructed of tim-
bers brought from Boston, the old
church remains to -day in a perfect
state of preservation and apparently
good for at least another,. century.
It is modelled upon the plan of St.
Mary's church, Vere street, London,
and possesses a pair of bells sent
out from England, to judge from their
tone, of very ancient'fivorkrnanship.
Underneath the church are extensive
vaults containing the remains of a
number of prominent personages, in-
cluding the two Bishop Inglis, father
and son. The vaults are now closed,
but are still accessible to anyone of a
mildly adventurous disposition. •
The church contains between forty
and fifty mural tablets to deceased
clergymen, statesmen, and officers of
the army and navy who have died on
the station, and a number of "hatch-
ments" or "escutcheons" also adorn
the walls. There is a magnificent
service of solid silver communion
plates, presented by the founder,
George II. In the vestry hang a
number of rare and valuable engrav-
ings -Halifax in 1760, Bishop Inglis,
Rev. Dr. Breynton, the second rector,
in wig and gown. The vestry minute
books and registers date about a cen-
tury and a quarter back, and are
most interesting.
Since its founding St. • Paul's
church has had eight rectors. The
present rector, Ven. Archdeacon
Armitage, Ph.D., is an Ontario man,
as was also his predecessor, Rev. Dy-
son Hague, now of London, Ont. A
great work is being carried on in this
venerable parish, which, in point of
membership and parochial activities,
is the foremost in" the Maritime
Provinces.

The Very Thing.
The following story is being told
about one of the professors at Ste
Michael's College, Toronto. He in-
duced a Protestant friend, with whom
he had many an nrgument, to accom-
pany him to tt Christmas service at
St. Michael's Cathedral. It was this
friend's first experience of such a ser-
vice in re Catholic cethedrah, and the
odor of incense and the soft cadence
of the music quite enraptured him.
Leaning over to his friend, he whis-
pered: "Doesn't this beat the devil!"
"I am so glad you think so," smiled
the professor. That is just what we
aro holding the service for."
Y
Face Shows Habitual Worry.
Habitual worry shows itself in the
action of the facial nerve -the nerve
of expression, as anatomists call it -
producing lines whieh in Bourse of
time become permanent. The same is
true of many other emotions and
states of mind; and those which are
dominant in the life of the individual
will ere long produce permanent
changes in the face. The secret of
the beauty which ago gannet wither
is to possess a beautiful mind; chin -
straps and depilatories and electricity
and massage and cosmetics aro floor
Makeshifts compared with this.
