Montreal Gazette: Mr. McMullen
has supplemented Mr. Mulock's bill
to 1educe the governor-general's
salar y by one to cut the pay of the
.i ieutenant-governors. Mr. McMullen
thinks. $6,000 is enough for the
. .

Ontario and $5,000 for those in other
provinces except Prince Edward
Island, inhere, as in the territories,
lie would attach to the lieutenant -
gubernatorial office an annual
emolument of only $4,000. At
present the lieutenant -governors of
Quebec, Ontario and Manitoba receive
$14,000 a Year, those of New Bruns-
wick, Nova Scotia and British Colum-
bia. $9,000, and those of Prince
Edward island and the territories
$7,0.0). They certainly had liberal
ideas of gubernatorial remuneration
.at confederation, and a good Ileal
was allowed for maintaining^ dignity
in the government houses. In Mr.
McMul1en's mind the governors
.should throw in the dignity with the
work.
Under the heading "Where's the
Economy?" the Winnipeg Free Press
says: The speech from the throne
declared that the government would
exercise the greatest economy. The
Budget gives emphasis to the necessity
for such exercise. The finance
minister's figures for 1893-4 are the
results of a policy which can scarcely
be defined as economical, when the
deficit amounts to $1,210,000. For
1894-5, the preceding deficit was
almost quadrupled, reaching $4,500,-
000; and for the year 1895-6, the
period of an administration resolved
to economize, the deficit under
existing revenue is $1,700,000.
The government's professions as to
economy are not undeserving of the
country's approval; but had the
resolution taken effect earlier, before
the deficits of only three years had
grown into a total of more than
V7,000,000, Canada's approval could
be of a positive nature. Corning
after prodigality, the declaration to
economize resembles the confession
of a penitent forced to reformation.
by some dearly bought experience.
- The Farmer's Advocate contains a
strong protest against the selling of
potash in the form of ashes to the
farmers and gardeners of the United
States In some form or other,
either we or our children must re -
.store this potash to the soil, and with
the rapid development of fruit grow-
ing in Ontario and other provinces
this becomes all the more imperative.
One of the greatest needs of our
'orchards is potash, but still the "ash
peddler goes his rounds, trading the
housewife a few bars of cheap,
yellow soap for bushels and bushels
of ashes ---a species of short-
sighted barter that has no re-
deeming feature. During the year
ending June 30, 1894, Canada ex-
ported $57,654 worth of the pot and
pearl ache*, and $52,110 worth of
unleached ashes, or a. total of 8109,-
764, representing a vast quantity in
bulk. It is not to be wondered at
that our neighbor; the Rural New
Yorker, should exclailn :—" Why in
the world Canada permits this whole-
sale drain is something that baffles
the wisest !"
Useless and Expensive.
Ontario, the best governed of the
Provinces, never had a second legisla-
tive chamber. Manitoba, New
Brunswick and Prince Edward
Island have abolished the super-
fluous branches of their legislatures,
and the people of Nova Scotia are
only debarred by the stubbornness of
the legislative councillors in their
Province from following suit.
Since the majority of the provinces
get along with only one house why
should not the Dominion be able to
do so -as well ? There is no more
reason for the existence of a second
chamber at Ottawa than there is at
Toronto. This is proved by the
history of the Senate, a history which
contains no record of public use-
fulness. In fact if' the Senate could
drop out of existence without an-
Yiouncemont ninety-nine people out
Of every hundred would not notice
the change. A house which is so
Utterly useless, which attracts so little
of public interest, ought to be abolish-

Corn for Careen Feeding,
It is strange how different men
•get suet very different results front
doing apparently the same thing
• while fitting a piece of land for
sowing corn for green feeding. A
farmer called on ine and, when told
what I was going to put on tha r
piece of land, said he was surprised
to see so many inen put in corn for
green feeding. "For," he said, "i
knew it is not only good for nothing
r•
to Fedi-ice milk, but certainly will
make,ll.(.
., cows fall off iii their yield, and
I have the figure* to show that I alis
right."
He said that last fall, while carry-
ing his milk to the factory where it
was weighed every day, his cows did
actually give less milk after he
began feeding sowed corn. And he
was right; they did give less milk
and, without the figures to show, his
word is good for the statement.
Here are two very cointnon mistakes
that this gentleman made which
caused such a surprising result:
First, he sowed three bushels of
corn to the acre on land that was
' heavily manured, and his corn was
tall, slender and thick, and was of
little or no value except for the
water it contained. Second, he fed
this corn in the pasture in the
morning in such quantity that the
cows tilled their stomachs full of this
worthless stuff and then spent nearly
if not quite, two-thirds of the day in
chewing it over in a cud, and con-
sequently did not feed the pasture
to amount to anything, and of course
could not be expected to produce
much milk. Now if this farmer was
the only one that makes these mis-
takes it would not pay to discuss the
matter.
But he is only one of hundreds
who do the sante thing year after
year. Last fall, in driving through
the country, I was surprised to find
so many men doing just exactly
what this one did, and I ani quite
sure I shall see the sante thing again;
this fall. If men will insist on
believing that, if one stalk of corn is
of any value for food, ten grown
on the salve space of ground are
worth ten times as much, it is uphill
work to make them believe that
there is any value in any corn fed
green.
Now I am just as positive that my
cows give more milk, and it makes
more butter after I get them nicely
on. to a sowed corn ration, and -I
have the figures to show that I am
right. But I plant my corn a
drill, and put in from eight to ten
quarts per acre in rows a trifle over
.three feet apart, and it is always (as
is everything I feed) fed in the
mangers; and when feeding but once
each day, it is fed at night—and just
the slight difference in my ways and
those of the gentleman produces
exactly the reverse in results. Wp
both tell the truth and back it up
with figures, and yet the experience
of each of us proves the other's
statement false. It is in this, as in
so many other things in farm work,
a little difference makes a great
change in results.—Ii. S. Matters=

THREE NOTED EPISCOPALIANS
WHO HAVE USED. DR. AGNEw'S CA-
TARRHAL POWDERS, AND IN THE
INTERESTS OF SUFFERING HUMAN-
ITY SAY HOW MUCH IT HAS DONE
FOR THEM.
In the ecclesiastical history of Canada
the names of the Right Rev. A. Sweat -
man, D. D., D. C. L., Lord Bishop of
Toronto, and Rev. John Langtry, M, A.,
D. C. L., stand out prominent, and
within his own parish may be added to
these the name of the Rev, W. R. Wil-
liams, Dr. Langtry's popular curate.
These gentlemen believe in acting out
the axiom of the Good Book, that hav-
ing learned of that which has been a
source of benefit to themselves, it is
their duty to tell the good news to
others. These three clergymen of the
Episcopal rhurch have each used Dr.
Agnew's Catarrhal Powder and found
than for cold in the head and catarrhal
troubles it is a great helper, and over
their own signature they have said to
the pubiie that these things are so, that
others may be likewise benefited and
helped.
One short puff of the breath through
the blower, supplibd with each bottle of
Dr. Agnew's Catarrhal Powder. diffuses
this powder over the surface of the nasal
passages, Painless and delightful to
use it relieves in 10 minutes, and per-
manently cures catarrh, bay fever, colds,
headache, sore throat, tonsilitis and
deafness. 60 cents. Sold at Chisholm's
Corner Drug Store.
The lnan, clergyman or layman,
that drawls "fanatic" at the aggres-
sive total abstinence advocate can
always be relied upon as either in-
terested in devouring whiskey or
selling it.
The Best Lemonade,
"I learned a new thing," said ,a
woman recently,. while visiting an
English t'riend.who is living in the
country. My • hostess served the
most delicious lemonade I ever
drank, I spoke of it nrxtday, and
she told me it was made with freshly
boiled water ---the seereet, she said of
thoroughly good lemonade. "I have
a regular rule," she further informed
me, "which insures success. if I ani

using the rind of one of them, I am
careful to peel the rind very thin,

I cut into pieces ancl put with the
juice and powdered sugar, of which
I use two ounces to the quart, in
a

the water is just at tea point, I pour
it over the lemon and sugar, cover
at once and let it get cold."
The Ex -Mayor o.f ' Listowel has
Dlsearclvd all Others.
He says: "I have fol years been a suf-
ferer from very severe bilious and neu-
ralgic headaches, and 1 have tried many
kinds of medicine —Some with very fair
results. But about a year ago used
Stark's Powders, and have since then
disuarded all other remedies. as I found
the gave immediate and perfect relief."

The Polish for Tan Shoes.
Now that tan colored shoes are so
much worn a hint as to how they
may be preserved indefinitely may
not be amiss, writes Frances A.
FIoadley in the .Tune Ladies' home
Journal. A clever lit1e woman of
my acquaintance had a handsome
pair of very light yellow low button-
ed shoes that were ruined as far as
appearances went. Her husband
was to bring her some dressing, but
he would not return until night and
she wanted to wear them after lunch.
She put her wits to work: wet a
soft muslin rag with water into
which a few drops of household
ammonia had been poured, rubbed
it with a little Castile soap, and ap-
plied it first to the back of the shoe.
It worked admirably. The entire
shoe was thoroughly cleaned in five
minutes. She kept one hand inside
the shoe to hold it in shape, and
was careful not to wet the rag so
much as to soak through the leather
to the lining, and also to rinse off
well b :fore drying. While damp
she smoothed them into fine form
then stood them away for half an
hour to dry.
To Make Pure Blood
Tbere'is no medicine before the people
equal to Hood's Sarsaparilla. It is the
standard spring medicine and blood
purifier and it possesses peculiar merit
which others try in vain to re'ieh. It
really makes the weak strong. Do not
neglect to purify your blood this spring.

HOOD'S PILLS become the favorite

Wellington Was Cheered.
While Wellington was still a
marquis he went to Paris from Tou-
louse, where he had fought and won
the last bottle of the Peninsular war.
He went to the opera the same
evening and though he wore plain
clothes and sat in the back of the
box, he was almost immediately re-
cognized by some one in the pit, who
cried out, 'Wellington!'
The name was taken up by others,
and at last the entire pit rose, turned
to the box and called: 'Vive Veiling-
ton !'
Nor would the people be satisfied
until he had stood up and bowed to
them, when he was cheered . and
applauded again, says Frank Harri-
son's Family Magazine. At the end
of the performance the passage from
the box was found to be crowded
with people. The ladies of the
party drew back nervously, but the
duke said r 'Come along!' in his
brusque way, and conducted them
on. While they were still in the
corridor a man in the crowd was
heard to say to his companions
'But why are you applauding so
much ? He has always beaten us!'
This was very true, and the ques-
tion seemed a. natural one, but the
answer was charming :
'Yes, but he has always beaten tis
like a gentleman.• ,

Indigestion keeps men poor. It
muddles the clearest brain. You

digestiye tract. One liipans Tabule

keeps you right. Ask your druggist
for them.
Tice Art of Breathing.
It is perhaps one of the signs of
the times,tothose alert for indica-
tions, that tho art of breathing has
become more and more a subject
of
attention, Oculists as well as physiol-
ogists go deeply into its study in a
way hardly to be touched upon here.
Physicians have cured aggravated
eases of insomnia by long -drawn
regular breaths, fever -stricken
patients have been quieted, stubborn
forms of indigestion made to disap-
pear. A tendeney to consumption
may be overcome, as some authority
within the last few years clearly de-
monstrated, by exercises in breath-
ing, Seasickness, too, may be sur-
mounted and the victim of hypnotic
influence taught to withstand the
force of ,any energy directed against
him.
There is a famous physician of
Munich, who has written an exten-
sive work upon the subject of breath-
ing, He has, besides, formulated a
system by which asthmatic patients
are made to walk without losing
i breath ; while sufferers from weak-
ness of the heart are cured. At
Meran, in the Austrian' Tyrol, his
patients (almost every royal house of
Europe is represented) are put
through a certain system of breath-
ing and walking. The mountain
paths are all marked off with stakes
of different colors, each indicating
the number of minutes in which a
patient must walk thegiven distance,
the breathing and walking being
in time together. As the cure pro-
gresses the ascents are made steeper
and steeper.-=-Harper's •Bazar.
"THE BRITISH CONSTITUTION is
' going to pot, sir! and that's a fact."
"Dear me! Do you really think so?"
"Do L think so? Don't I know so?
Why, sir, in another ten years there
will be nothing left of it." "Well,
sir," said the other, when he could
get a word in, "I am very sorry to
hear what you say about the British
Constitution, but to be quite frank
with you, I am most concerned just
now with my own constitution. I
seem to be going all to pieces; what
do you advise?" "My dear sir, why
didn't you say so before? Hollo-
way's Pills, to be sure; they will
keep your system in good order, and
enable you to discuss with vigour
the questions of the day. I am
never without them."
By the Wayside.
Love never loses by being tested.
The Christian has too much busi-
ness on hand when he becomes tco
busy to pray.
.Jesus never tried to make a
disciple by argument.
It is not enough to look upon
Christ as he walks. We must walk
with him.
The right kind of religion never
has to go away from home to find
something to do.
If we would be more careful
where we step, those who fellow us
would not stumble so much.
We can make any kind of hard
work easy by doing it for God.
When. Christ enters the heart, it
must be by the front door.
The man who gets rich at the
expense of his conscience, pays too
much for his money.
Our hardest battles are those we
fight with ourselves.
There aro men who repeat the
Lord's prayer almost daily, who
never think it worth while to raise a
hand against the whiskey business.
To close the heart against a
brother is to shut the door against
God.
If we have a heart to give, God
will give us the ability to do it.
