INSULTING ONTARIO.
(London Advertiser,
Indorse Rowell's "bar or bottle"
policy and what prolific herds of
"blind pigs" would spring up all over
this fair province—Hamilton Spec-
tator,
The brewery press has a poor opinion
of the average Ontario citizne The
above? stetereent makes it plain that the
Spectator believes that a innjoiity of
the men who atoW go into bar -rooms
would consort in "blind pigs" and dives,
and break the law of the hnel to soeure
liquor.
The Advertiser does not believe that
ten men in thousand who now frequent
bars would enter a "blind pig" or break
the law to secure liquor after the bars
are closed. The average man who
drinks may be nn enemy to himself,
and a fool to chink, but it is hard to be-
lieve, as the Conservative pr eee charges,
that he would cause the country to
blossom with iniquitous dens, and that
the Government would be unable to en-
force the iaw.
This is about the only argument the
Conservative press has to offer in the
present campaign -this anti Mr. Hanna's
pris m farm, which is one of the clear-
ing houses for the product of the saloons.

THIS TRAOIC LETTER --
How would you answer it
ECONOMICAL MILK PRODUCTION.
The manufacturer perhaps more than
the retailer looks closely after the mat-
ter of cost knowing that his principal
hope of making a goodiprofit lies in at-
taining economy in the actual production
of the article, for no profit .can be ex-
pected if the selling price is below the
cost price.
Is not the dairy farmer a m anufac-
turer? So it would seem to be wisdom
to look the more closely after cost es-
pecially as he does not expect the selling
price of milk to soar. Assuming that
the farm is in good condition and care-
fully handled, what does milk cost per
hundred pounds? That can be ascertain-
ed only by leeping records of each in-
dividual cow.
This is all the more necessary because
"men (and cows) were deceivers ever."
They may appear to be good heavy pro-
ducers, but their value as economical
producers can only be determined when
their yield of milk and fat is checked up
by the scales and test. Of what use is
it when the factory pays 95 cents per
100 pounds just for feed alone? This
is what often happens till cow testing
is taken up. Milk and feed record
forms are supplied free on applicatton
to the dairy division, Ottawa.
It is quite possible to have one dollar's
worth of feed return two dollars' worth
of milk through good cows, that is eows
selected by the test. This is both
economical and profitable milk produc-
tion. The average cow is not an econom-
ical producer because she has not been
selected, but, like Topsy, "just growed."
A dairy farmer will prove his business
ability as a manufacturerwhen the herd

Kidney troubles are so frightfully

WHEN CARUSO SINGS. —
The Scene In His Dressing Room Be-
fore the Opera Begins.
The opera was "Aida." Caruso was
to sing Ithadatues, and he was in the
dressing room. ln his trnin came his
two valets. Wonderful indeed were
they. Celerity told deftness raised to
the nth power, with silencers on their
feet, they passed fled repessed each
other in luconceivably small 'spaces
without once touching each other or
humping into their lord and master.
Cameo sits before a stationary wash.
stand, and one of the valets hands him
a toothbrush and powder. Then for
three solid minutes by his Swiss move-
ment watch does Carl3S0 cleanse and
scrub and polish. The ever alert dress-
ers stand bebind him, watchful for a
shrug of his shoulders, which they im-
mediately interpret into a command.
Caruso takes a long breath, and he
needs it. It must be a sigual, for one
of the valets lies a glass 'of warm wa-
ter in one hand and in the other a big,
round pasteboard box full of little
brownish Crystals. Caruso takes a
handful of the crystals and drops them
into the warm water, where they dis-
solve immediately.
"That's gargling salt," he says. "I
use it for my first gargle."
The gargle takes four minutes, and
then comes the vaporizer. A glass of
;water containing bicarbonate of soda
and glycerin is pieced on a little stand.
A rubber hose connected with the va-
porizer is put into the glass, and a:
thin, forceful sputtering spray s,hootr$
out a full foot Into this tiny Gating
gun spray Caruso plunges, mouth open.
Then the heavy artillery. answers. the
little Gatling gun, for Caruso cdughs
back at the spray, chokes, bellows and
sputters. Into each nostril, then deep
down into the throat, go the bicarbo-
nate of soda and glycerin over and
over and over again until Caruso
coughs no more.
The vaporizer bath has taken 'el gh t
minutes by Caruso's Infallible yratch,
but the end is not yet. There is a cold
:water gargle—sterilized water, please
—minus the salt, to follow and that in
turn by a spray for the nose only.
Only about six sniffs apiece for each
nostril and the spray is put away.
Then naenthol and vaseline on ab-
sorbent cotton attached to long stink;
and Caruso swabs out his throat with
these as, a gunner would a cannon.
"Dilates the throat," he says be-
tween gasps. One more gargle of cold
Water and the homage to the throat is
finished. It has taken tWenty-two min-

How to "Get" the 'Flies.
One of the best methods to get rid of
the thesis to use fly paper. Sometimes
it is not possible to put' out poison fly
paper, especially where there are child-
ren, but if one can not use poison paper
she can still use plenty of the sticky
kind and catch flies by the hundred if
there are so many around. '
A nice way to do is to put the poison
paper on the porch and kill the flies be
fore they have a chance to get into the
house. Around the back doors where
the flies always wait a chance to get in-
to the house every time a 'door is open-
ed is a good place to put several dishes
in which have been p/aced a liberal
Isupply of the poison.
If you put out sticky paper inside the
house it is a good plan to place it in the
light in front of a window where the sun
shines. After the dishes are washed,
pull down all the blinds except one that
should be allowed to remain open about
for or five inches to admit the sunlight.
Put the pieces of sticky paper ix this
bright light and the files that have fled
to the ceiling for safety when you went
around striking at them with a long
paddle will soon come down and be safe-
ly stuck fast to the paper. They often
dart down and fly straight to the paper
without once alighting. It seems that
the bright light has an attraction for
them and they can be caught by paper
in the sun light when otherwise they
will fly all around it and never get
caught.
In the fall when the flies are particul-
arlo annoying, put several pieces of
sticky paper in the warm sunshine in
front of a window and it will only be a
short time until all the flies are stuck
