Palpitation of the Heart
One of the first danger signals that an-
n4tunce something wrong with the heart is
the irregular beat or violent throb. (Often
there is only a fluttering sensation, or an
"all gone" gold ngfeeling; or again, there
may be a most violent beating, with
flushings of the skin and visable pulsa-
tions of the arteries. The person may ex-
perienee a smothering sensation, gasp for
breath and feet as though about to die.
In such eases the action `mf Milburn's
Heart and Nerve Pills in quieting the
heart, restoring its normal beat and im-
parting toile to the nerve centres, is,
bc;yon� all question, marvellous. They
give such prompt relief that no tine need
suffer.
Mrs. Arthur Mason, Marlbank, Ont.,
writes:—" Just a fen lines to let you know
what Milburn's Heart and Nerve Pills '
have done for me. I have been troubled
with weakness and palpitation of 'the
heart, would have severe choking spells
and could scarcely lie down at all. I
tried many remedies but got none to
answer my case like your pills did. I
can recommend them highly to all with
heart or nerve trouble."

NOTES AND COMMENTS
Thrift and industry are indispensable
handmaidens of Prosperity in the field
of egr'ioalture at least. Business ability
and scientific training cannot wholly
aubatitute them. Large ideas without
thrift have been the ruination of many
an ambitious young farmer. Large
ideas with thrift are essential to a
broad -gauge success.
Bradstret is returns of business fail-
ures for nine months, 1908 and 1909
show that Canada is returning to an
era of property. In the whole of Can-
ada for this period there ware 1,201
business failures, with assets amounting
to $4,697,855, and Iiabilities of $9,555,-
707. In a sunnier period of the pre-
ceding year there ware 1,227 failures,
with assets of $6,401,947, and liabilities
of $74 394,248. Ontario shows the most
decided advance, with only 386 failures
this year against 481 last year. The
western provinces, too, show a consider-
ably improved condition in this regard,
Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta,
together only report 139 failures against
232 of last year. In Quebec, the Maria
time Provinces and British Columbia
there is a tendency towards retrogrea.

The Globe, of Toronto, editorially has
the following wise observation relating
to taxation; — "Taxation may be so
levied as to encourage and almost force
industry and enterprise. It may on the
other hand, be so levied as to obstruct,
retard and even destroy the source from
which the revenue meet be drawn. The
French window tax led to the closing of
many windows and a proportionate Less.

buildings. The Egyptian tax on date
trees led to the cutting down of many
trees. Larger amounts might have been
raised by methods which would encour-
age the best and fullest use of the pro-
perty from which the revenues were
drawn. Similar influences can be die.
oerned in theineidenoe of business tax-

courage energy and improvement is
exactly the intent of the prcposed change
in the Aes"asment Act, granting powers
to municipalities to fix a Iower rate upon
the business and improvement values
than upon land values. Over 200 muni.

THE VALUE OF OPTIMISM.
Stress is laid on the value of op-
timism by the Galt Reformer in an
article in reference to the advance-
ment made by the Little Manobester
daring the past pear. The Reformer
says:—
Contained in the large increase
whioh Galt's population shows during
the twelve months just cloned, is a
Iesson or two for all those engaged in
promoting the growth and prosperity
of the town, This partionlar lesson
teaches the value of optimism when
the clouds hang heavy and things seem
to be going wrong for even the hopeful
man and the cheerful munioipality.
When the depression of 1907 set in Galt
faced a large increase in the tax rate,
made necessary by civic undertakings
calling for an expenditure of over $400,-
000, People were hardly prepared for
short hours in our industries, a lower
scale of wages and lank of work for
men able and anxious to work. But
the native courage of the community
asserted itself and the town really grew
stronger under the strain put upon it,
by a condition of things not of its own
making. Galtonlans stu0k to it man-
fully when business was at its worst.
With the breaking of the clouds they
were at ft planning for the future,
reckoning that by so doing they would
comp out of the depression almost un-
scathed. This individual energy was
applied to sack good purpose that new
industries were established during the
days when bankers looked aakanco at
propositions for loans to any lint the
most substantial of merchants and
menufaeterers. No wonder Galt is
now able to show a"larger increase in
its population for the year jest closed
than either Stratford, Brantford or
l-A�alnilton. The lesson of it all is that
optimism. yields good return to the

'o house is stronger
than its foundation,
nor is a piano.
The foundation of a
piano is the back frame.
This forms a base of opera-
tion for all the working
parts, and must therefore
be very solid.
The back frame of the
Mason and Risch piano
consists of several hardwood uprights securely braced
together. The design is onewhich secures the great-
est degree of strength.

to in this verse?
From the preceding five verses what
had the Jews requested Festus to do?

cniate a charge against any person that
he has not got ample proof of?

Verses 9 12 — Whoa a judge or a
magistrate favors the proseoution and
makes harsh remarks ageless the prison-
er during the taking of the evidence,
thus prejudicing the jury, is such a man
fit for a jadieial position?
When a Ohristiian is accused of wrong
doing, and is innocent, shoald he insist
upon hia innocence or be patient and
silent, and wait for the facts to speak?
Paul was no doubt wise is refaeing
to go to Jerusalem hut was he equally
wise in not insisting that his trial be
finished at Caesarea, and in his appeal
to Caesar?
If you were n minister to be triad for
heresy', whioh tribunal would you rather
select, a prejudiced Conference or
Synod, ozGau•
ara! Assembly, or Con-
vention, or a committe3 of secular High
Court Judges?

"Why should it be thought a thing
incredible with you, that God should

Why dM not Festus and Agrippa both
