The Gold Dust Twins'
Philosophy
WE were amused to hear the praise a grocer paid to Gold Dust
ways. Of all the many cleaning "stunts' , he picked the Gold
Dust Twins at once. "I find,' he chuckled, "that they do
the work of many more than TWO.
"My customers are M;stly wives, who
have to bargain all their lives; each penny
of the household fund, is counted, and the
wasteful shunned. For instance, take the
cleaning game; Not all the cleansers work
to merely rub for naught, and sorae give out,
no sooner bought.
"With Gold Dust, all my people state, the work of cleaning house
goes great. It does so rn,any clever tasks; it does, in fact, whatever
asked. From kitchen, through and through, to hall; upstairs and
down, the porch and all. Wher•
ever dust and dirt collect, it has a
marvelous effect.

"A 'Home, Sweet Home' is one,
I say, wherein the Gold Dust
fellows play. Their work is fun to
them. They start at dawn, with
some magician's art and with the
sinking of the sun the last mean
job of work is done.
, "Oh yes, I libe to recommend, a product that will prove a friend.
Each Gold Dust customer declares that glass and cutlery and stairs,
and floors and dishes and the rest are cleaned by using it -the best.

SIR JAMES'1VIA.NIFESTO
••••••••••••
[St. Thomas Journal]
There is no better proof anywhere of
the moribund condition of the Ontario
government that is to be seen in tbe
manifesto to the people issued by Sir
James Whitney. The present-day epir-
it is entirely lacking and many matters
contained in the document relate to the
history of ten years ago, an indicetion
in itself that the Gevernment has been
unprogressive and has fallen • into de
cay.
Credit is token for doubling the pub.
lie revenue, though just what particular
evidenee of prosperity there is in exort-
ing more money from the people's pock-
ets is difficult to see. As regard the
Workmen's Compensation Act, for
which the Government arragates to it-
self much praise, the matter was allow-
ed to drag along year after year since
1997, end it was only through the -con-
tinuous prodding by the Opposition that
action was finally had and the measure
placed on the statute books. Indeed,
the very things of value that the mani-
festo lays to the credit of the Govern-
ment were largely the product of Lib-
eral effort. In both 1918 and 1914 ses-
sions, it was the Liberals that took the
initiative in urging the construction of
hydro -radials by co-operation between
the commission an I the municipalities.
While Mr. Beck was always favorable,
the Government remained obdurate and
only yielded when its haed had been
forced.

MILK FOR CHICKENS
There is nothing which repays one
better in rearing chickens than to give
them milk. For the first three weeks
fresh sweet milk should be given in
stead of water. and as I have already
said, should be used for mixing their
soft food. It is useless, of course, to
drink when they please; it will then be-
come sour and unwholesome. Fresh
nlilk should be given in small quanti-
ties at each feeding time, and it will be
found that the chickens will drink it
greedily.
After three weeks curdled milk can
be given. •
Quite as important as good feeding
is the matter of warm, dry housing.
While chicks should be kept dry and
not not exposed to severe cold or draught
it is most important that they should
have plenty of fresh air, and that they
should not be coddled.
Little chickens are especially prone
to become infested with chicken lice,
and this prevents growth. Until they
are large enough and wise enough to
clean themselves in the dust bath, they
should be dusted over with insect pow-
der once a week as a preventative.
So much for practical hints on the
way to rear chickens with success and
profit. A little trduble is entailed in
carrying them out, but in practice they
will be found quite simple and easy to
work on. -"Farmer's Weekly" (Bloem-

I wonder if the sheep are huddling
AAgainst the greening hill,
nd are the lawbies cuddling
And do they get their fill?
And are the lambiee straying
The broken fences through,
And are they skipping, playing,
Just as they used to do.
And is the sweet sun shining
Upon the swinuning-hole?
And is my muskrat dining
Upon his willow roll?
And, following their leaders,
Do loud crows swim the blue
To find the nestful cedars,

The Bullfrog,
The bullfrog has a widespread voice,
the loudest ever born; his singing makes
the world rejoice and chortle -in a
horn. When to their nests the swal-
lows wing their way, as does the dove,
the cheerful bullfrog starts to sing a
lay of home and love. He warbles like
a frog -or bull -down in his swampy
lair, and people plug their ears with
wool, and storm around, and swear.
The frog obeys no rhythmic rules, and
folks who hear him say, "We'd rather
hear a thousand mules when they rear
up and brad." Each night he stirs up
human ginks to wild, unseerniy wrath,
aed yet no donbt the bullfrog thinks
he's cutting quite a swath. Perhaps
he mutters to his frau, as is the way of
males: "Don't talk about your robins
now, nor yet your nightingales! In
some things I do not xeel," the modest
bullfrog cries: "I doubt if 1 could dig
a well or make erabapple pie; I do not
boast about -lily skill at making ginger
beer, but when a song is on the bill, I
feel I have no peer!" And I've met
men and women, too, just like the bull-
frog host; the very things they cannot
do are those of which they boast.

THE ROWELL TEMPER-
ANCE POLICY
In the course of his address at Mas-
sey Hall, Toronto, on June 4th, Mr.
Rowell said:
the platform which I had the hon-
our of aubmitting to the electors in the
general election of 1911 the following
statement of policy appears:
"The evils of intemperance constitute
a grave social peril. During the ensu-
ing Parliamentary term we will consid-
er the best form of legislation to deal
effectively with these evils, and the el-
ectors will have an oppo rtunity of pass
ing up on our proposals at the follow-
ing general election."
Pursuant to this pledge, I now submit
to you the policy upon which we ask
the electors to pass judgment;
"(1) That immediate abolition of the
bar including therein the abolition of
all hotel and club licenses and therewith
the treating system,
"(2) Such other restrictions upon
the residue of the liquor traffic as ex-
perience may show to be necessary to
limit its operation and effective to rem-
edy its evils. Local option to be main-
tained as a means of wiping out the
residue of the retail sale where the el-
ectors so decide.
(8) The strict enforcement of the
law by officials in sympathy with the
!law enforcement and the elimination of
political influence from the administra-
tion of the law.
(4) The regulation and inspection of
all houses of public entertaintnent so as
to insure reasonable accomodation for
the travelling public."
This policy means:
Hotel liquor licenses. Every one
wiped out. This means that liquor gen-
not be sold anywheie on the premises.
Club liquor licenses. Every one wip-
ed out. ,
Treating system. ' Abolished.
Shops are dealt with, but in a differ-
ent way from bars;
(1) They will come under further re-
strictions.
(2) They can be wiped out by local
option on a majerity vote where the el-
ectors so decide.
(8) New shop licenses cannot be is-
sued in the place of bar licenses abol-
ished.
Note: -In nine -tenths of the munici-
palities of the Province there are at
present no shop licenses.
IN NINE -TENTHS OF THE MUNI-
CIPALITIES. THEREFORE, OUR
POLICY MEANT THE COMPLETE
ABOLITION OF THE RETAIL SALE
OF LIQUOR,
The pledge I made in 1911 is now re-
deemed, and the responsibility rests
upon the electors of this province to
say whether the open bar shall continue
in our midst or be forever wiped oat.
I now make this further promise and
pledge to you and to the electors of the
?toy' ce ;
IF T11.2 P,LEOTORS EXPRESS
THEIR APPROVAL OF THIS POLI-
CY I3Y RETURNING ITS TO POWER,
IN THE NEXT SESSION OF THE
LEGISLATURELEGISLATION WILL
13E E'NAOTED WHICH WILL GIVE
FULL EFFECT TO THE POLICY I
HAVE LAID BEFORE YOU.

When Soldiers Were Flogged.
It would have needed a very alluring
form of advertisement indeed to at-
tract men to the English army a bun-
dred years ago. Writing of tbat period
a writer says: "Flogging was almost
universal. The maximum number of
lashes were gradually reduced from
1,500 to 800, but the notion that dis-
cipline could not be maintained 'with-
out summary punishment continued to
be believed, and Wellingtou himself
dealt with flagrant ceses by hanging
the culprits upon trees in tbe public
roads. One result WAS that only men
belonging to the lowest classes would
join the army." In 1771 a sentinel in
the guards was flogged in St. James'
park so severely that he subsequeutly
died raving mad. His offense consisted
of saying that "there was no more en-
couragement for a good soldier than
for a bad one."

"Can't shave me while Inn asleep,"
ex.:named the victim, with n wonder-

Recalled Several Times,
Said Pasha, one of the niost re-
marlcable politiclaus that Turkey
ever produced, has Named awoy, and
the laet notable link that bound the
new regime to the old has been
broken. Said Pasha's name Is known
to the world for two very good rea-
sons, the more important being that
It is easily spelt and _confidently inJs,
pronounced. Perhaps he was mot so
great a man as Klamil Paella, who
diesi not long ago, and who was his
associate, as well as Ills master in
Oriental diplomacy, but it was his
fortune to be the man of the hour
in two or three of the most drainatie
situations in the modern Watery of
Turkey. Originally called to high
°Mee in order that be might frus-
trate the plans of the patriots who
desired to give Turkey some sort of
decent government, he left tae ser-
vice of the Sultan, whose cruelty and
viciousness disgusted him. Recalled
again by the Young Turks, he seem-
ed to betray them when preparing
the constitution. Yet again when
they were in straits they called him
back, and upon him and Kiamil
Pasha they relied for guidance in
those slays of stress and trial that
led to the war witb Italy.
Said Pasha was born in Armenia,
and when a young man entered the
service of the Turkish Government,
Though he held several posts prior
.to his sudden elevation to be Vint
Secretary to Harald, they were of
an unimportant character. How the
new Sultan heard of Said Pasha Is
not clear, but he must have been
pretty well informed when at a eri-
tical moment he called him to his
side in 1876, At that time it ap-
peared, that Turkey was about to ex-
perience a renaissance of liberty and
material prosperity. alinhat Pasha,
who is the real father of the Young
Turk movement, was the most pow-
erful influence in Turkey under the
Sultan, whose Ministers were ready
to join him in a demand for a liberal'
constitution. Abdul Aziz was ready
to sign It when a serlea of tragic
events threw back the eause for
thirty years. The Sultan committed
suicide, and a Turkish placer ran
amok in Midhat's home, where were.
gathered several of the Ministers to
discuss the situation. He killed twe
of them, and for a few months con-
fusion reigned in Constantinople.
The heir -apparent was Murad, but
showed signs of mental tveals-
nee's, and Abdel Hamid began ac-
tively conspiring to occupy the
throne. The Ministers, led by Mid -
hat Pasha, believed that in this
young prince lay the hope of Turkey.
They approached him, and found
that he was profuse in professions
of devotion to the cause of liberty
and in promises of reform if he be-
came Sultan. In proof of his earnest-
ness he signed a document in which
anions; other things he agreed that
Sadullah Bey, a noted reformer,
should be his First Secretary. Soon
afterward Murad was confined in a
castle, and Abdul Hamid became
Sultan. One of the first acts was to
repudiate the promise to appoint a
reformer as his First Secretary. In-
stead he brought Said Pasha to the
front, and gave him this post. He
proved himself worthy of the con-
fidence reposed in him, and won mot
only the respect of the Sultan, but
of foreign diplomats. The result
was that at the close of the Turco -
Russian war, when Europe demand-
ed reforms in Turkey, Said Pasha
was made Grand Vizier and entrust-
ed with the task of carrying them
t.
"however, it was no part of the
Sultan's plans to have tbe reforms
introduced, and the palace clique
'Soon made things so unpleasant for
Said Pasha that he retired, and for
thirteen years lived quietly on his
estate. When the Sultan found him-
self deserted by his friends, with the
YOung Turks knocking upon his
castle walls, be rernenthered
Pasha, and be was suddenly recalled
and was appointed to reside over
the final assembly when the new and
the old regime met for the last time.
The council was in doubt what
course to pantie. From all parts of
the country came rumors of insur-
rections; whether they were for or
against the Sultan nobody seemed
