A STARTLING COMPARISON. In days like these, when the Gov- ernment press devotes itself to rais-re- presenting the financial condition of the country, it is satisfactory to have an authority to fall hack upon that cannot be questioned, The Statistical Year Book for 1809 has been issued. The wide scope it takes, the vast labor spent in making the tables correct, and the evident pains to make every subject easy to understand, do credit to the compiler, • Mr. Schnson. • The dispntes between the Conserva- tives and the advocates of the Govern- • ment centre most over the revenue,the expenditure, and the additions to the • debt. The following comparison shows at a glance the difference between 1896 the year when the Conservanives left Office, and last year. 1896 1899. Raised by taxes $27,750,000 $84,950,000 aevenue from Other sources • and from loans 8,850,000 11,10,000 • Total reV- enue 36,600,000 46,730,000 Expenditure 44,000,000 51,100,000 Gross debt 325,700,000 345,100,000 Taxation per -head $5.42 $0.58 Grose debt per ' heed $63.55 $64.97 Tusimplify these •figures we have left out fractional thousands. They show that in three years both revenue and expenditure have increased ten million doila.rs. That is, the Government has receiv- en millions more of yearly income, t it all, and incurred twenty mil - °liars more debt. ceptiort may be taken because the , As debt, instead of the debt, is quot- ed.» Our reason for doing so is, that the assets include so many question- able items that the amount they are totalled at could not nearly be realiz- ed.--Huntingclon Gleaner (Lib.)

The British Premier's decision to refuse to agree to the terms of the German note was conumanicated ver- bally to the German Ambassador here, Count Von Hatzfeldt-Wildenburg during a long interview yesterday af- ternoon. Official circles here were inclined to believe that His Lordship would agree with Germany. Instead of do- ing so, he used almost exactly the farms'iil which Washington's refusal was couched, and this, said a high official,' "is all the more surprising, considering that the Washington offi- cials had not the slightest inkling of what England's attitude woeld be."

The commonest symptoms of dys- pepsia or nerve trouble, such as pal- pitation, weak spells, loss of appe- tite, and poor circulation, are magni- fied and distorted into serious signs of heart trouble, with the object of frightening the public into, taking this or that heart remeai. If a hundredth part of the heart trouble we hear about were real, the ceme- teries would be filled in a month. A Wrong construction is put upon C011x. mon ailments in order to humbug the people into the belief that heart disease is prevalent, whereas real heart trouble, which is so sadly and suddenly fatal when it does occur, id' a rare disease. Lopsided arguments cannot convince an intelligent pe.ople. The' Scare Wa4 0ro1dr111-11. Iron is the vital element of the blood.
