Exeter Advocate, 1913-2-6, Page 6AGRICULTURAL MACIIINERY Series of Experiments Made With Farm Cmple- meets in the Czar's Kingdom A .lespateh from St. Petersburg says :e Anextensive sort >l of expert- . manes'' with agricultural implements was carried out by the Russian De- partment of Agrietelture during the Beasonof 1912, with a view to put- tins- an end to the dependence of Russia on American rn nufactur- ere. Over 100 reapers, mowers, hayrakes and other implements manufactured in Canada and vari- ous European countries were put to stork under the supervision of of- foials of the department. A con- siderable number of 'these imple- ments, ents, according to an official re- port e ppoort just issued. successfully stood the tests under varied and difficult ' oonditions--notably those oohing •d Othersh from Canada, of those tried -were found adaptable iio Rua - slam. oSi'iditiOns, and it is stated that they can be manufactured equally well in :Russia. 'Phe Department of Agriculture' is sending out copies of the report to co-operative eeoie- ties and Looal Government Boards. all over the country, as the Russi- an farmers are largely supplied through these sources. The Gov- ernment hopes to induce agricultur- ists to substitute other implements for the American machines gener- ally in tine. Seventy-two per cent. of the. business.. in this kind of ma- chinery is now in the hands of manufacturers in the United States. Sergeant=Major Under General French VETERAN OF BOER WAR WHO LOST HEALTH ON THE VELDT TELLS EXPERIENCE. Coed Advice for All Who Have Indigos. tion or Stotnach Disorders. In his home at Waldegrove, N. S., no one is better known than Sergt: Major Cross, late of the 4th Queen's Own Hus• gars. Speaking of the ill-effects of a eaui- paign upon a man's constitution, the Sergt.-Major writes: "I served under General French during the lute Boer war, In the capacity of Sergt:Miajor. It was perhaps owing to a continued diet of bully beef, hard tack,' and bad water, but at any rate my stomach entirely gave out. r was in such a state that Y could eat Nothing without the greatest suffering. Phe army doctor; did not help me much, and einoe leaving the servioe I have been very miserable. Some few months ago a friend told me he had been a, great suf- ferer from indigestion until he tried Dr. Hamilton's Pills; they cured him. I con- fess it was without much faith I bought a box, but the first dose made me feel better than I had been for a long time. Dr. Hamilton's Pills completely anted, and now I oan eat everything and any- thing. I have recommended them to others and in every case the result has been similar to mine." -Quick, sure re5uits attend the use of Dr. Hamilton's Pills.

HUGE 3EQUEST. Nearly $5,000,000 Left by Robt. Ari ington for Missionary Work. A despatch from New York says : One of the largest bequests ever made for missionary work is dis- closed in an appraisal of the estate of Robert Arlington of England, which was filed in the Surrogate Court on Wednesday. Although the value of the entire estate is not given, the personal property alone le appraised at $4,593,000, all of which is left to two London mis- sionary societies -the Baptist Mis- sionary Society and the London Missionary Society. The will di- rects that the money be used for "giving to every 1 ribe of mankind that has them not and which speaks a language distinct from all others accurate and faithful copies of at least the Gospel of St. John and the Gospel of St. Luke, together with the book of the Acts of the Apostles, 'printed in the language of that tribe." The will further prescribes that at least ten ox twelve persons of each tribe shall be taught how to read. 414 DR. BEA -TUE NES137TT DEAD. VVas Well-known Physieiiafi, Politic- ian and Banter. A despatch from Toronto says At 3.30 on Friday afternoon, Dr. Beattie Nesbitt, late .President of the defunct Farmers' Bank, suc- cumbed unnumbed to a six months' illness. He died at his home, 71 Grosvenor street, with Dr. Graham Chambers and Dr. Walter McKeown, Mrs. Nesbitt, and her daughter at the bedside. Dr. Nesbitt was 46 years old. . His death has been expected daily for the past week, owing to the malevolence of the heart die:' ease and Bright's disease, which wasted the one-time genial doctor to a shadow of "himself. At no•otl he became unconscious, and at three -thirty he passed quietly away. BRITISH SAILORS LOST. Feared That Lieut.

MURDER AND SUICIDE. Ottawa Laborer Bills Wife and Poisons Himself. A despatch: from Ottawa says Cyrille Lepage, aged ,45,; a laborer at the Booth mills, who came here from. Quebec' a few years ago, shot and killed his wife, aged forty, and committed suicide by taking Paris green, at their robins, 87 Broad street, shortly before noon on Fri- day. According to the woman's mother, Lepage came home Friday morning and said he was going to kill his wife and himself. The mo- ther rushed out to eunmon the po- lice, 'but when assistance arrived Mrs: Lepage was found with two bullet wounds in the head, and the man had taken poison. Mrs. Le- page died en route to a hospital, and Lepage succumbed about half an hour later. Ks THRESHED HER. 15 Long Years. _ "For over fifteen years," writes a patient, hopeful little Ills. wo- man, "while a coffee drinker, I suf- fered from Spinal Irritation and Nervous trouble. I was treated by good physicians, but did not get much relief. "1 neser suspected that coffee might be aggravating my condition. (Tea is just as injurious, because it contains caffeine, the •same drug found in coffee.) I was down- hearted and disoouraged, but pray- ed daily that I might find something to help me. "Several years ago, while at a friend's house, I drank a cup of Postum and thought. •I had never tasted anything more delicious. "From that time on I used Pos- tum instead of coffee and soon be- gan to. improve in health, so that now I can walk half a dozen blocks or more with ease, and do many other things that I never thought I would be able to do again in this o g world. • "My appetiteis good, I sleep well'. and find life is worth living, indeed, A lady of my acquaintance said she did not like' Postum, it was so weak and tasteless.' "I expiained to her the differ- ence when it is made right -boiled according to directions.

LIPTcN'S TEA Goes farthest for the money TORONTO CORRESPODENCE INTERE.STINC ,BITS OF GOSSIP FROjb THE QUEEN CITY. Provincial Treasurer's Death -The Sulfra- - gists' 'Neve/vont, Toronto's High Buildings -Polities at University. The death of Colonel A. J. Matheson removes from the. legislature a member who, next to the Premier himself, had the reoord for long eervico in the House. His absence will mpke a large gap, for Oalonel Matheson, even in the days of oppoeition when he was onle a' private member, was assiduous• in his. attendance to'duty, It was a rare clay when his seat in the House was vaoaot.. Not only was lee conscienti- ous to a degree, thereby differing from many membety who only report in the House for the purpose of drawing, their sessional indemnity, but he took a real personal interest In nearly every topic that came up for discussion. This wide, interest in all ,ports of subjects was ono of the distinguishing characteristics of Oolouel Mathesou's mental make up, and it had not a little to do with 'making him such a useful member of the legislature. He' was not as frequent a speaker as some others, bat.when he did speak' it was not because he liked to be' in the .limelight, but because he had information or an opinion, arrived at after- due thought, which he considered would be of benefit. in the deliberation. His Sincerity and Probity., i would say 'the outstanding feature of Colonel Matheson's character was his ab- solute sincerity. If he made mistakes they were mistakes about which there could be no suggestion of crookedness or double-dealing or other unworthy motive. This fact was recognized by opposition as well as by friend. And while his critics frequently attacked his judgment they never attacked his probity. Co'lonel'Matheson was not a great orator. He spoke in a high key, and with -consid- erable effort. But hie speeches wero.me,de interesting and carried weight because of the sincerity and the conviction behind them. A bachelor to the end of .his days, Col- onel Matheson- was frequently made the butt of jests. in the House on this .ac- count. All these, however,. he took in good pant and often returned them in kind. It was'appropriate that when the final call came it should find him in his lib- rary, for the rate Provincial Treasurer was an inveterate reader. Women 'Suffragists' .Progress. The looal women suffrage movement is getting a 'foothold. A year or .:two ago when the issue first began to liven things up in England, the interest here was ,pret- ty mild and,_aoademio,.and one rarely met any person, even among•women, who ever got excited on the subject. Thanks to the spectacular doings in England and to a persistent propaganda by a, few local' en- thusiasts, this condition ' of things is changing. Suffrage is. now a 1ivo.topic of disouesion. And from a condition where nearly everyone professed to ,be mildly in favor of women suffrage -"if they want- ed it" -there are crystallizing strong de- finite and opposing opinions. =Some of 'the strongest "antis" are among the wonarn themselves, and when snob. "are in the dis- cussion the argument is generally heated.. As an issue in practical politics the suf- frage question has so far been a negligible quantity. It is a question if this can be saidtruly much longer. A oonference of men interested in the movement was held the other day and a permanent men's organization formed. It le interesting to note that two of the most prominent male propogandists in the cause are W. F. Mao - lean; M.P., and Dr. Jae. L. Hughes, Chief Inspector of solmoola. The Sky -Scraper Problem. We are having a belated discussion on whether sky-sorepers ought .to be allowed. With two buildings rearing skyward from 16 to 18 stories it seems a little late to lay down a degree that 10 stories dallies the limit for the rest of the oity, particularly when plans are ready for a hotel and one or two new office buildings, one said to be for the Royal Bank to run twenty stories. The corner of King and Yong° streets promises' teen to look like a oanyon. Yet on the. whole sentiment is favorable to the skyscraper. They appeal to civic pride, and they furnieh Iight, airy and convenient offices. It is .estimated that the new Royal Bank building will ao- oommodate 2,000 persons It;like the 0. P. R. building and tbo Traders Bank .build- ing, in order before it, will be able to announce that it: is the tallest' building In the British Empire, for, curiously, the American continent, the part of the world that'bas the most unoccupied land, is the only -Place where the land. saving device of building skr•eorapers has taken root. Most European cities have low buildings. and are prevented bylaw from having any other. Many of Toronto'•s bank bixildings are fashioned after the English model -low and ornate. This plash of English archi- teoture with Anierioan architecture prom- sees to make down town Toronto exceed- ingly interesting from an architectural standpoint though it ruins forever . any prospect of symm try or consistency. Party Polities in University. The proposal to it rod:me' party polities tato the undergraduate body attheUni- versity x o U i versity of Toronto may lead to conse- quences. From the earliest times to the present day undergraduate politics have been colorless, and to the• outside pubiio meauinglese. There have alwaye boon two parties, but .their platforms were gener- ally joke platforms without' reference to political party lines or anything else of a serious nature. . The present'movement seeks to bury these old parties in the dead. past and to have the students in their undergraduate bodies such as the Liter- ary Society, .come out frankly and divide as Grits and' Torfee, disoussing and de- bating the puhlitc issuee of the day from this standpoint.. ' The backers of the movement say this would give them a ,reel preparation for Public life' after graduation, that now they aro learning much about the poli- tics of ancient. Route, but nothing abaft those of modern Canada. Also they point; out that the undergraduates' of Oxford disouse politics without harm or molesta- tion:'. On the other` Stand the University of Ttt- ronta,• being a state institution, the die. mission of politios' therein might raise some delicate attentions. Sir .Tames Whit- ney mado a somewhat_ oracular declara- tion on the subject : in which he seemed to threaten the whole movement •with ex- tinction. It is claimed by.

No More Neuralgia, His Headache Cured A Journalist Tells of The.

Rog- ers of The New York Globe outlined an aggressive policy which the as- sociation is embarking upon in or- der to emphasize the superiority and importance of newspaper ad- vertising as against the benefits ob- tained by advertising campaigns in. the magazines. Mr: Rogers said, in part :. "Muoh of the lost motion and ' waste in modern business is represented by a misconception of the relations which should exist be- tween the seller and the buyer of publicity. A000rding to my con- ception of the proposition, the ad- vertiser 'should absolutely demand that .every medium in which he spends money delivers known and proved circulation as a prerequisite of the contract, Unless this is dons 'you place a premium on the man of false statements." Mr. Rogers showed how, newspaper. advertising was the most efficacious and satis- factory medium of reaching the con- sumer to -day, and advanced in proof of his ox n:tentiobs the'foltow ing main argument : Newspaper space can be_bought in exact ac- cordance with the distribution of goods and in, co-operation with sel- ling effort for 100 per cent. of&ci enoy priced to the hour and enab=_ led to take advantage of changing conditions.
