NOTES AND COMMENTS
Newspaper etr»ti'.tioa show that in the
past month. 1,176 persons met death in
the United States by drowning. The
returns from Clanada are not available,
but they naust be in proportion ot those
of our neighbors A. Ieague to teach
people to be oareial when on or in the
water might be as good in its effoot on
population as an immigration agent. -
Montreal Gazette.
Really the romance of life begins
only after marriage. It is then that
character is developed, that personality
is matured, that capabilities are tested.
Before marriage (until the individual
becomes a confirmed old maid or old
bachelor), life is more or less in the
nature of a stage picture, with comedy
and athletics ptedominating. The most
in it is fun and frolic, music and dano-
ing, running and singing, plucking flow -
ere and scattering them. That is ex-
cellently good while it lasts. It is after-
ward, as a rule, that come the realities
that make mega and women great and
noble, or the reverse. -Savannah, Ge.
News.
There were thirty million less cigar-
ettes smoked in Canada last year than
the year before. The decline is held to
be entirely among boys of sixteen years
or under, and to be entirely due to the
restrictive legislation put throng!). Par-
liament by the Government during the
seasion of 1908. It is believed that the
law aotaaliy prevented the smoking of
from forty to fifty million oigarettes by
the boys of the country, as the con-
sumption was inoreasing, and if it had
not been for the law there would have
been an increase of from ten to twenty
millions instead of a decline of thirty
millions. This is a fair assumption, as
the coasumptfon was increasing more
and more eaoh year and daring the six
years prior to 1908 the increase amount-
ed to over seventy-five millions,
Next month the Grand Trunk Pacific
Railway will be carrying passengers
from Winnipeg to Edmonton, and the
autumn will see wheat from Edmon-
ton carried by G. T. P. to Port Arthur.
A new country has been opened, and
all along the line land values have in-
creased three, four and five told be-
cause of the improved transportation
route. The wild prairie has beoome
cultivated farms. The small station
site bas grown into a town, and the
uninhabited northland has been filled
with settlers. We have spent thous-
ands of dollars and years of time ad-
vertising northern Canada, but the
railway comes and fills the country,
adda wealth to the nation, and moves
the wild prairie line a couple of three
hundred miles north. The railway
builders are our constructive states-
men. At times we think they come
high, but their policies are of the
praotioal sort, and we must recognize
that without transportation there
would be no laud values, and if in
their work of railway building they
have amassed private fortunes let ns
recognize that they have made possible
the immensely vaster wealth of the
settler, whose prodnot they carry to
toe market. -Canadian Engineer.
SPEAK WELL OP WINGHAM.
Every town has its ohronic kickers
and people who are alwaye preaching
blue -rain. Some citizens are always
reedy to piolr holes in almost every
notion of the Council, giving the Ogun-
eillore at tiwes very uncomplimentary
names and saying the town is going to
the bad. Four or five of this kind of
people will do more harm to a town
than fifty good, live, up to -date citizens
can do good. The TI11ES man hat spent
nearly twenty-two years in Wingham
sed in that time has visited many other
Ovens in Ontario and other parts of the
world and has always been glad to get
back to the good town of Wingham
The people of the town should speak
well of Wingham and do all in their
power to keep the pleoe on the upgrade.

FO THE MOTHERS
DF PALE GIRLS
A Case Showing How the Tonic
Treatment Restores Lost
Health.
Anaemia is simply lank of blood. It
is one of the moat common auc3 at the
same tittle most dangerous diseases
with which growing girls suffer. It is
common because the blood so often
baooines impoverished during develop-
ment, when girls often overstudy,
over -work and suffer from lank of ex-
ercise. It is daagerone because of
the etealthiuess of its approach and
because of its tendency to grow so
steadily worse, if not promptly check-
ed, that it may run into consumption.
Every growing girl should take an oc-
casional tonic to ward cff the insid-
ious trouble; and in all the world
there is no tonic that can equal Dr,
Williams' Pink Pills. Every dose of
this medioine helps to make new,
rioh blood, which promptly makes
weak, pale, listless girls bright, rosy
and strong, Miss A. M. Dagay, Lower
Cove, N. S.. says: -"I believe I owe
my life to Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.
My blood seemed to have turned to
water. I was pale as a sheet; I suf-
fered from headaches and '°sting
specks seemed to be cons ntly be-
fore my eyes. As the t • •able pro-
gressed my limbs began swell, and
it was feared that dro.-y had set in
and that my case wa hopeless. Up
to this time two . to •rs had attended
me, but notwlthst...ing I kept grow-
ing worse. It was at this juncture I
began using Dr. Williams' Pink Pills,
and after taking a few boxes I was
much improved. I kept on using the
Pills until I had taken eight boxes,
when my health was completely re-
stored."
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills cure cases
like this because they go to the root
of the trouble in the blood. That is
why they cure rheumatism and indi-
gestion, nervous headaches and rack-
ing nenralgia, and all those troubles
from which growing girls and women
of mature years so often suffer in hope-
less silence. If Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills are given a fair trial they will
not disappoint you. Sold by all medi-
cine dealers or by mail at 50 oents a
box or six boxes for $2.50 from The
Dr. Williams' Medicine Co„ Brookville,
Ont.

Toronto, Aug. 10 -Trading was very
slow at the Western Cattle Market this
morning. There were few large orders
for the better class of cattle, and a
downward tendency was noticeable
Large quantities of ordinary cattle were
in evidence and the prices were ant to
rid the market of the more undesirable
flesh.
