NOTES AND COMMENTS
For the fiscal year jest ended the
revenue of the postcfiioe depertm'nt
irpm the sale of stamps was $9,215 862,
compared with $3,635,370 for the pre-
ceding twelve months, an increase of
$530,492. as compared with 1908 The
inoreaee is $4,088,401, or about 100 per
Gent.
Poatmaster•General Lemieux has giv-
en netiee of a resolution to provide for
an increase of salaries of officials is the
ontaide department. It is time a move
of this kind was made. The salaries
have not been increased in twenty years
and the cost of living has largely in-
creased in that time.
CHURCH NOTES,
In the County of Huron, the Y. M. 0.
A's conducted far the mouth at Febru-
ary a totel of 19 week night Bible
classes among the young men, with an
average attondanoe of 21, besides 11
educational evenings at debates, im-
promptu stump speeohes, practical
talks and mock municipal cannon
work.
Come and spend Easter Sunday with
us in the Methodist chnroh. Speoiel
Easter music will be rendered by the
choir. The pastor wn11 speak at both
services. Subjeots: at 11 a, m., "The
mysterious stranger"; 7 p. m., "The
resurrection body; what revelation and
scienoe have to say about its nature and
attributes." A most interesting sub-
ject, carefully considered and explained.
The public always welcome.
The beautiful new brass lectern
memorial to the late Rev. Robert Mo-
Oosh, was navailed in Christ Church at
Chatham, on Sunday, Canon Craig, of
Sarnia, officiating, assisted by Rev. T.
S. Boyle and Rev. W. H. G. Oolles.
The Canon, in a very interesting and
instructive sermon, paid high tribate to
the worth of the deceased rector, to
whose memory the lectern was unveiled
in the church.
Returns made at the close of the pres-
ent fiscal year show that before they,
had been two yoare in the country no
leas than 1,700 men and women were
found to be undesirable citizens, and
have been deported. Besides these there
were 4,600 immigrants who were rejects
ed upon first touching the country.
Another interesting feat noted by the
Department is the decrease in immi-
gration from Japan. Daring the whole
past year only 500 have come from that
land, as compared with 7,452 during the
preceding &seal year.

How Best to Get New Health and
Strength in Spring.
The winter months are trying to the
health of even the most robust. Con-
flaement indoors in over -heated and
nearly always badly ventilated rooms—
in the home, the office, the shop and the
sohool—taxes the vitality of even the
strongest. The blood becomes thin and
watery or clogged with impurities.
Sometimes you get up in the morning
just as tired as when yon went to bed,
Some people have headaohes; others are
low spirited; some have pimples and
skin eruptions. These are all spring
symptoms that the blood is out of order.
You can't aura these troubles with pur-
gative medioines, which merely gallop
through the system leaving you still
weaker. What you need to give you
health and strength in the spring is a
tonic medicine, and the one always re-
liable tonic and blood builder is Dr,
Williams' Pink Pills. These Piils not
oily banish spring ills but guard you
me that
rvons de -
mi and kid-
s' Pink Pills
hioh strength-
ens every nerve, ever organ and every
part of the body. Try this medicine
this spring and you will have strength
and energy to resist the torrid heat of
the coming summer, Mr. J. R John-
son, Loch Broom, N. B.. says:—"Some
two years ago I began to feel that my
constitution was weakening. I could
not stand any exposure or knocking
about. I finally sought the aid of a
doctor who said my system was very
much run down, and that the trouble
might end in nervous prostration. As
his medicine did not help me I decided,
on the advice of a triend, to give Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills a trial. I had
used leas than a half dozen boxes when
my health was folly restored, and I
think no other medicine oan equal these
Pills when one is run down and out of
health."
Sold by medicine dealers or by mail
at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50
from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co.,
Brockville, Ont.
At St, Paul's Church next Sunday—
Easter—services will be held as follows,
conducted by the reotor, Rev, 0. E.
Deakins: -9 a. m , Holy Communion;
11 a. m., Morning Prayer and Holy
Communion; 7 p. m., Evening Prayer
and Holy Communion. A children's
service will be held at 3 p. m. Special
music will be rendered by the choir,
and the ohnroh will be appropriately
decorated with flowers, plants oto. On
Good Friday (to•morrow) service will
be held at 10.30 a, m. and 8. p. m. All
are invited.
Mr. Philip H. Bowyer, Conservative
member for East Kent, who led the op-
position for the five Government mem-
bers of the Legislature to the Canadian
Northern Railway andeidy at the last
session, voted with the Liberal leader's
amendment to give a six -months' hoist
to the proposed laud grant in the first
division of she new Legielature Tuesday
night. He rose at the conclusion of the
recording of the Opposition vote, and
declared himself amid Liberal applauds.
After a moment's pause Mr. G. W.
Salman, his Oonservative colleague from
the western riding, rose and joined him,
while the Liberals continued to pound
their desks. Mr. Allan Stndholme, the
Hamilton Labor man, also voted with
the Opposition. The vote was otherwise
along strict party lines.
The new License Act, introduced in
the Legislature last week makes a num-
ber of important changes in the law.
Among the changes are:—Toronto tav-
ern license fees increased from $1,200 to
$1,600, a total inorease of $44,000. Shop
licenses remain at $1,000. To root out
"blind pigs," the penalty for the first
offence of non Iicense-holder inoreased
from $50 $100 to $100 $200. For second
offence, term of imprisonment inoreased
from four to six months, Authority
given to inspectors to seize auspeoted
liquor in transit, on boats, cars, etc.
Such liquor may be sold to pay express,
railway and other charges. License fee
• of $5 a year to hotels in local option dis-
tricts. Authority given inspector to
enforce changes for better accommoda-
tion, safety, sanitary conditions, bed-
ding, etc.

The Conservatives who criticized the
building of the Newmarket canal, which
the people asked for, and which will be
of great public benefit to the commu-
nity through which it passes, are the
same men who, when in power, built
what is known as the Tay canal, other-
wise Haggart's ditch, running from the
Rideau canal six miles to Hon. John
Haggart's mill at Perth, This is the
short history of Elaggart's ditch.
In 1882 a vote of $50,000 was asked,
and the total cost wag estimated at
$132,600.
In 18'13 another vote was asked, and
the total cost estimated at $240,000.
In 1884 another $100,000 was asked.
In 1887 it was stated that the cost
to date had been $256,000, and $55,000
more was needed to finieh the work.
To 1883 another $ 78 000 was voted, and
the statement made that the work was
completed.
It 1889 another $25,000 was voted "to
complete the work,"
In 1890, another $10,000 was voted to
settle with the oontraotora and finish
the canal. Afterwards in the same seg-
sion $20,060 was asked and voted.
la 1891 another $30,000 was wanted to
oemplete the canal.
The annual cost of maintenance wad
about 528,000, and revenue nothing.
Is le well to compare this action of
the C snservati' a Government, with the
Wile of the Liberal Gov'ernmont with
regard to the Newmarket canal. The

SCOTT'S
EMULSION
is the greatest help for babies
and young children there is.
It just fits their need; it just
suits their delicate, sensitive
natures; they thrive on it. Just
a little does them so much
good and saves you so much
worry, You owe it to them
and yourself to make them as
strong and healthy as possible.
SCOTT'S EMULSION will help
you better than anything else;
but be sure to get Scores.
It's the best, and there are so
many worthless imitations.
