There is many a man and woman Bing night after night upon a sleepless Some constitutional disturbance, worry or disease has so debilitated and irritated the nervous system that it cannot be' quieted. Mrs. Calvin Stark. Rossmore, Ont., writes:' "About two years ago I began to be troubled with a smothering sen- sation at night, when I would lie down. I got so bad I could not sleep in the dark, and would have to sit up and rub my limbs, they would become so numb. My doctor said my heart and nerves were responsible. I saw Milburn's Heart and Nerve Pills adver- tised and got a box to try them, I took three boxes and can now lie down and sleep without the light burning and can rest well.. I can recommend them highly to all nervous and run down women. Milburn's Heart and Nerve Pills are 50e. per box, or 3 boxes for $1.25, at all dealers, or mailed direct on receipt of price by The T.

NOTES AND COMMENTS United States Consul Seyferth says that about $200,000,000 of United States capital has been Invested in manufacturing in Canada. And this stream of capital is still flowing our way. While that condition continues we can afford to smile at Aidrich's at- tempts at manipulating the United States protective tariff to our disad- vantage. Alberta, according to the cheering forecast of its Minister of Public Works, Hon. W. H. Cusbuig, will have from 15,000,000 to 18 000,000 bushels of wheat to export if the crop has as favorable weather from the present to the harvest time as It was from seed time to the present. He expects that the grain will be exported via Pacific ports. Within forty years, Dr. Stephenson, president of the Detroit Society of Chemists, said at a meeting of chemists held in Detroit recently, coal will be a fuel of the past, and unless peat can be made to take its place the descendants of the United States, probably of Cana- dians, too, must shiver when the tem" perature goes down towards zero. Can. ada has the peat beds which if a satis- factory process of manufacturing it into fuel can be found, will enable it to some extent at least to be independent of the anthracite coal supply of the United States. The problem will yet be solved and it is gratifying to know that the Dominion Government is intent upon solving it, and to this end the director of mines is now preparing to make ex- periments. Lord Strathoona is persistent in mun- ificence. His gift of half a million to McGill, to bring the equipment of the medical faculty up to the bashed stan- dard, is worthy of his past and of the traditions of the institution. It is just possible thet part of the indifference manifested by the public towards the financing of McGill is accounted for by the khowledge that in any stress one or others of its benefactors will come for- ward with a princely gift, but so Yong as they give with so good a heart and with so manifest a delight in the gilding and in promoting the advancement of learn- ing the example they give it one which will tome day provoke the emulations of those to whom smatter sums would mean equal sacrifice.

Montreal Herald. The confiscatory legislation passed by the Whitney Government in the Cobalt . Lake case, and the nets passed to close the canrts of justice against I.rivate citizens seeking adjudication of their rights in that ease and in the hydro- electric power matter have been produc- tive of much adverse criticism, These cases involve such a serious breneb of faith and such an attack upon the security of property and the right to access of the courts that it is mot to be wondered at that they have attracted attention in Great Britain, the effect be. ing to weaken confidence in the safety of investments made in the Pomace where laws impairing the obligation of contracts are tolerated by the people. Hon. Mr, Aylesworth, while severely stigmatizing legislation of the kind, did net in the Cobalt mase advise the dis- allowance, holding it to be within the competence of the Province, however vicious or unjust it might be, The statutes depriving citizens of access to the courts in the power matter are still subject to be disallowed, and there is a very strong sentiment in favor of such a course. -Hamilton Herald.

How many times a day should a per- son attend church? What is the value of a good habit, and how are good habits formed? Terse S -Did Paul mean to say that it was necessary for the Jews to have put Jesus to death, and it not what did he mean? (This ques- tion must be answered in writing by members of the club ) (The position taken by the present writer is, that the Jews ought to have accepted Jesus, and, that their putting him to death is the colossal crime of history, and the calamity of calamities that has befallen the Jews. That there are two distinct lines of contingent prophecy in the Old Testament, either one of which being fulfilled, would can - eel the other; and that the prophecies concerning the perpetuation of the Jew- ish nation and the throne of David with unparalleled splendor, were cancelled by the fulfillment of those concerning the rejection of Christ. God sent Jeans In good faith, and they voluntarily rejeCt- ed him, when God't first and best plan was that they should accept him. God then proceeded to do through the death of Christ, that which would have been done more speedily by his life.) Is it necessary for us to adopt all Paul's opinions, In order to be well - pleasing to God? Were ail Paul's opinions correct eon- oerning the time of the second coining of Christ? In what sense was it true, "that Christ most needs have suffered?" (See Luke xxiv:26, Jer. xxili:5.6, Mich. v;2, Matt. In what way do the Old Testament Scriptures bear testimony that Jesus is the Christ? Verses 4, 5 -How do you account for it that the same facts and reasoning which convert some only serves to hard- en others? How is it that women are generally in the majority in Christ's converts? Why were the Jews moved with jealousy? Can a jealous man, at the time, either be a true man or a correct reasoner? How do you characterize a person who is jealous of another in doing good works? Have we any modern example of the way these people acted? Verse 6 -Is the world, to -day, upside down, or right side up? Is the world getting better or worse? Verse 7 -When people oppose the work of God do they generally confine them- selves to the truth of their objections, or do they ever confine themselves to the truth? Do objectors to the truth knowingly falsify or do the do it in blind ignorance, or through peed judice? Verses 10 12 -Is there ever any Vir- tue in exposing ourselves to danger, when it is not necessary In the interests of the truth? What was the difference between the religious people of Thessalonica and those of Berea? Is a truth seeker sure to find it? Is it ever right to suppress the truth in the interests of the /Kingdom of God? Verses 13.15 --What is it that prompts men to work to hard, and persistently in opposing what they know to be the truth?

Pointe to Be Considered in Purchasing a Well Bred Animal. The high prices which have prevail- ed for some time in the mule market have prompted many farmers to look intothe subject with a view to turn. lug their attention to the production: of this valuable draft animal. (ionsld' ering the perplexities connected with the purchase of jacks, the following suggestions from a Missouri breeder cannot be otherwise than interesting and valuable: "I wish to call the attention of ail those in the market for a jack to some pertinent facts regarding the purchase of such an animal for brewing pur- poses. My experience covers an ex- tended period in the business, and I therefore feel qualified to speak, A. jack under fourteen hands high can- not be registered. It is also important to see that the color is black and that the points are white, as, if the animal answers to arty other description, he is ineligible to registry, The buyer who would be discriminating in the selection of a jack should carefully look over his conformation and give special attention to his underpinning. He should have a good hoof and a wide heel, and it is always well to look for big bone, heavy head and ears. A WELL BRED JACK.. Besides this, the buyer should assure himself that the animal is a proved breeder. When you have secured these points in an animal you can be pretty sure of getting your money's worth. "As in all lines, there are tricks which every man who starts out to buy a jack should know in order to protect himself from being made the object of untrustworthy dealers. Or- dinarily it is a very easy matter to swindle the average jack buyer, as nine out of ten who are out to pur- chase know nothing about the require- ments of a good animal, and invaria- hi/ they are taken advantage of. There are a good many breeders in the business who are practicing the policy of soiling direct to the buyer instead of letting their productions go to the large cities and there be retailed out to buyers from different parts of the country. This plan of buying direct from the breeder has every advantage, and I would recommend it strongly. There are a good many things regard- ing the purchase of a jack which can- not be explained on paper, and there- fore the buyer who would get the most worth of his money should use some discrimination in the choice of those whom he patronizes." Lack of Water Lessens Milk Flow. Don't let the cows shift for them selves in the matter of water, They must have all they want of such a temperature as will induce them to drink enough to supply their needs. Many a cow "falls down" in her milk production because she is starving for water, the water being either difficult of access or too cold to be palatable. THE SHEPHERD. Have a hospital pen where the sheep that give evidence of being sick can be isolated and treated. Many a contagious disease can In this way be kept from spreading in a flock. Woven Wire Best For Fence. Fences for sheep should not be less than three feet high, with post every sixteen feet, and preferably of woven wire with a single barbed wire at the top. Barbed wire is apt to Cause the loss of wool, because sheep when in full fleece are frequently crowded through, especially it the wires are not stretched tightly. Facts About Sheep. From records kept at the Wisconsin experiment station of 240 ewes cover- ing overing a period of five years the following conclusions were drawn: Shropshire ewes appear to be more prolific than any other breed. Ewes six years old produce the largest per- centage of increase, while young ewes have the greater percentage of dingle lambs. The percentage of ram lambs increases and the percentage of ewe lambs decreases as the age of the ewe advances, A ram Is At his best at two or three years of age. The age of the ram does hot have any elect on the sex of the offspring. Ram lambs avers age about one.half pound heavier et birth than ewe iambs. The larger the ewe the greater the percentage of iso• Crease, while the ram has no effect 00 the lambs in this respect. Feeding Sheep. It is always advisable In feeding sheep not to feed too much torn. CM - *et, hay and 'corn In equal parts by. weight should be given during the fat- telling atteeing period. Except for fattening- purposes It Is better Clot to feed Sheep on corn et Mi.. Corn is said to contain About 00 per Bent of starch rind 6 Per cent of oil, both being very digestible.

Golden Text -Thy word have I hid in mine hears, that I .may not sin against thee. Pa. cxix:11. Verses 1, 2 -Is church going a good habit, and what do they lose who have not formed it? How many times a day should a per- son attend church? What is the value of a good habit, and how are good habits formed? Terse S -Did Paul mean to say that it was necessary for the Jews to have put Jesus to death, and it not what did he mean? (This ques- tion must be answered in writing by members of the club ) (The position taken by the present writer is, that the Jews ought to have accepted Jesus, and, that their putting him to death is the colossal crime of history, and the calamity of calamities that has befallen the Jews. That there are two distinct lines of contingent prophecy in the Old Testament, either one of which being fulfilled, would can - eel the other; and that the prophecies concerning the perpetuation of the Jew- ish nation and the throne of David with unparalleled splendor, were cancelled by the fulfillment of those concerning the rejection of Christ. God sent Jeans In good faith, and they voluntarily rejeCt- ed him, when God't first and best plan was that they should accept him. God then proceeded to do through the death of Christ, that which would have been done more speedily by his life.) Is it necessary for us to adopt all Paul's opinions, In order to be well - pleasing to God? Were ail Paul's opinions correct eon- oerning the time of the second coining of Christ? In what sense was it true, "that Christ most needs have suffered?" (See Luke xxiv:26, Jer. xxili:5.6, Mich. v;2, Matt. In what way do the Old Testament Scriptures bear testimony that Jesus is the Christ? Verses 4, 5 -How do you account for it that the same facts and reasoning which convert some only serves to hard- en others? How is it that women are generally in the majority in Christ's converts? Why were the Jews moved with jealousy? Can a jealous man, at the time, either be a true man or a correct reasoner? How do you characterize a person who is jealous of another in doing good works? Have we any modern example of the way these people acted? Verse 6 -Is the world, to -day, upside down, or right side up? Is the world getting better or worse? Verse 7 -When people oppose the work of God do they generally confine them- selves to the truth of their objections, or do they ever confine themselves to the truth? Do objectors to the truth knowingly falsify or do the do it in blind ignorance, or through peed judice? Verses 10 12 -Is there ever any Vir- tue in exposing ourselves to danger, when it is not necessary In the interests of the truth? What was the difference between the religious people of Thessalonica and those of Berea? Is a truth seeker sure to find it? Is it ever right to suppress the truth in the interests of the /Kingdom of God? Verses 13.15 --What is it that prompts men to work to hard, and persistently in opposing what they know to be the truth?

Pointe to Be Considered in Purchasing a Well Bred Animal. The high prices which have prevail- ed for some time in the mule market have prompted many farmers to look intothe subject with a view to turn. lug their attention to the production: of this valuable draft animal. (ionsld' ering the perplexities connected with the purchase of jacks, the following suggestions from a Missouri breeder cannot be otherwise than interesting and valuable: "I wish to call the attention of ail those in the market for a jack to some pertinent facts regarding the purchase of such an animal for brewing pur- poses. My experience covers an ex- tended period in the business, and I therefore feel qualified to speak, A. jack under fourteen hands high can- not be registered. It is also important to see that the color is black and that the points are white, as, if the animal answers to arty other description, he is ineligible to registry, The buyer who would be discriminating in the selection of a jack should carefully look over his conformation and give special attention to his underpinning. He should have a good hoof and a wide heel, and it is always well to look for big bone, heavy head and ears. A WELL BRED JACK.. Besides this, the buyer should assure himself that the animal is a proved breeder. When you have secured these points in an animal you can be pretty sure of getting your money's worth. "As in all lines, there are tricks which every man who starts out to buy a jack should know in order to protect himself from being made the object of untrustworthy dealers. Or- dinarily it is a very easy matter to swindle the average jack buyer, as nine out of ten who are out to pur- chase know nothing about the require- ments of a good animal, and invaria- hi/ they are taken advantage of. There are a good many breeders in the business who are practicing the policy of soiling direct to the buyer instead of letting their productions go to the large cities and there be retailed out to buyers from different parts of the country. This plan of buying direct from the breeder has every advantage, and I would recommend it strongly. There are a good many things regard- ing the purchase of a jack which can- not be explained on paper, and there- fore the buyer who would get the most worth of his money should use some discrimination in the choice of those whom he patronizes." Lack of Water Lessens Milk Flow. Don't let the cows shift for them selves in the matter of water, They must have all they want of such a temperature as will induce them to drink enough to supply their needs. Many a cow "falls down" in her milk production because she is starving for water, the water being either difficult of access or too cold to be palatable. THE SHEPHERD. Have a hospital pen where the sheep that give evidence of being sick can be isolated and treated. Many a contagious disease can In this way be kept from spreading in a flock. Woven Wire Best For Fence. Fences for sheep should not be less than three feet high, with post every sixteen feet, and preferably of woven wire with a single barbed wire at the top. Barbed wire is apt to Cause the loss of wool, because sheep when in full fleece are frequently crowded through, especially it the wires are not stretched tightly. Facts About Sheep. From records kept at the Wisconsin experiment station of 240 ewes cover- ing overing a period of five years the following conclusions were drawn: Shropshire ewes appear to be more prolific than any other breed. Ewes six years old produce the largest per- centage of increase, while young ewes have the greater percentage of dingle lambs. The percentage of ram lambs increases and the percentage of ewe lambs decreases as the age of the ewe advances, A ram Is At his best at two or three years of age. The age of the ram does hot have any elect on the sex of the offspring. Ram lambs avers age about one.half pound heavier et birth than ewe iambs. The larger the ewe the greater the percentage of iso• Crease, while the ram has no effect 00 the lambs in this respect. Feeding Sheep.
