The forty-eighth report of the
Postmaster -General Shows a satis-
factory bueiness undertaking manag-
ed by ths nation. The work of the
department centinues eteadily to
increese,. the number of poStal pace:-
ets earned being 5.2 por cent. more
than ever before,. Just on 4,000,-
000,000 packets of ono kind or an-
other were sent through the post
last year, snaking an average a
94.2 for every main woman and
child in the United, Kingdom.
Each, persOn had last year, on the
average, 58.9 letters, 10.7 post-
cards, 18.4 book packets and cir-
cular, 4.1 newspapers, and 2.1 par-
cels delivered by postmen.
The total estimated revenue of the
Post Office for the official year end-
ing on March 31, 1902, was £14,-
465,8'70, and the expenditure L10,-
166,519. Nearly half of the revenue
went on salaries and wages, and
.10.88 per cent. •at it was paid for
the con.veys.nce of mails.
The prodt was L3,999,851, but
this had to bear part of the loss on
telegraphic service.. For while the
caeclinary postal service yields a
handsome surplus, the telegraphic
branch shows a growing deficit. Last
year this came to L651,806, not
Including nearly £300e000 that as
to be paid annually as interezt on
stock ereated for the purchase (if
telegraphs.
The report strikingly illustrates
the absent-mindedness of many peo-
ple, although the selection of amus-
ing stories -which was once a fea-
ture of this return is no longer
given. Over ten million letters and
nearly two million postcards could
not be delivered for one reason. or
another. Of these letters 3,782 con-
tained property, and had inside no
name or address el sender; and 85,-
640 articles were found loose in the
post, including over L1,000 in mo-
ney and £6,000 in cheeks, etc., one
parcel had a half sovereign ; which
had evidently been used to seal it,
still attached to it on •arrival at
London.
TELEPHONE SERVICE.
The details of the post office tele-
phone service are of special interest
The post office owns and operates
the trunk wires between towns. It
has opened exchanges of its own in
various parts. It receives royalties
from. the National Company, and
frora munifflpalities it has licensed
to operate telephone systems. The
trunk wire system is being rapidly
eletended, and the royalties for ex-
change working amounted to a1je1,-
626, nearly the whole coming from
the National Company.
Details are given of the post office
London telephone system, which was
opened on February 21 last, about
50,0 subscribers having been connect-
ed up to the end of the financial
year. Provision was made for 5,-
400 subscribers, but the large num-
ber of applications has made it
necessary to enlarge this to 10,000.
The department declares that the re-
sults so far "justify the hope of a
more regular and satisfactory ser-
-vice than has hitherto been possible
in London."
The post office admits complaints
at the slow rate with which the de-
mand for service can be met, but ex-
cuses itself on the geound of the
great amount of work necessary in
the construction of the system- Al-
ready over 600 miles of underground
pipes have been laid, and about 330
miles of cable, containing from 200
to 432 wires, have been drawn into
them.
The post office now employs 1'79,-
200 persons, including over 38,000
women. The women 'workers are
more often sick than men, the pro-
portion in London being 79 for wo-
men and 66 for men. In London. the
sick women get better sooner than
the men; elsewhere women are not
only more often sick, but longer ill.
'The average time of illness at the
chief office is fifteen days for men,
,and 13.9 for women.
In other metropolitan districts
women are ill longer, and in the
country the time is 16.9 for men
and 22.2 for women. This is for
the established staff alone, the pick
of the people.
Two hundred and one of the
women workers left the service to be
married, their average age being 27.
The post office girl is thus shown to
have a lower chance of marriage
than the average of her sex.
FEATS OF INSECTS.
There is a certain little fly that
was observed to run three inches and
make in doing ita4,40 steps—all in
one-half a second of time. To equal
this, in proportion to its size, a man
would have to rim at the rate of
twenty miles a minute. The common
flea leaps 200 times its own length.
To show like agility a man six feet
tall would have to leap a distance
of 1,200 feet. The cheese mite is
about one-quarter of an inch in
length, yet it has been seen to take
the tip of its tail in. its mouth and
theraletting go with a jerk, to leap
out of a vessei six inehes in depth.
To equal this a man would have to
jump out of a. well from a depth of
114 feet. A. well known student of
nature once tried the growing force
of a squash, When it was eighteen
days old and measured twenty-seven
inches in cireemference he fixed a
sort of harness around it, with a
long lover attached. The power of
tee squash was Tneasered by the
Weight it lifted, the weight being
fixdd to the lever. When it waS
twenty days erd, two days after the
harriesS was fixed on it, it lifted
sixty pounds. On the nineteenth day
it lifted 5,000 pounds.

WRUNG AWAY,
THE SAD CONDITION 01' MANY
YOUNG GIRLS.
Vlothers Should Be Very Careful
When Th.eir Daughters Com-
plain. of Headache, Fickle
Appetite, Dizzin.ess or
Heart Palpitation.
Many mothers neglect the health
of their growing daughters. Stot
wilfully, of course, but because they
think the occasional heada.ches from
which they suffer, ficklenese of leen
petite, and pale cheeks, are the na-
tural result of the inergieg from
girlhood into womanhood. This is a
serious mistake. Them is no perioLl
in. k girl's life when she' needs more
attention, and unless the little trot'
bles are successfully treated, raore
serious ones—perhaps decline .and
consumption—are sure to follow.
What every young girl needs at this
period is a tonic medicine that will
give .her a rice, red blood, strong
oerves, and bring her safely through
a. critical period he her life. For
this purpose there is no other mode•
eine in -the world can equal Cr.
Williams.' Pink Pills. Thdusands of
girls throughout Canada, owe their
present heath and happiness to this
medicine, and thousands of others
who are suffering would soon be
strong if they would give Dr. Wil-
liams' Pink Pills a fair trial.
A.mong the many young ladies who
have prayed the great worth of this
medicine is Miss Jeanie Boomer, of
Boyle, Ont. Miss Beamer says. :—
"Some years, ago I 'became very ill,
and ray friends feared I was going
into decline. I was pale ; sue:creel
from terrible headaches; my appe-
tite was poor, and I grew very thin.
I became so weak that I could hard-
ly walk. I reraained in this con-
dition for several raop.ths, .during
which time I tried several medicine°
but none helped ma in the least.
Then my mother got- me some a- of
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and alpinist
from the outset they helped me. As
I continued the use of the pills, the
severe headaches left me; my ap-
petite returned and I gelled in
weight. In fact I was soon enjoying
perfect health, and ham since con-
tinued to do so. I attribute this
entirely to the use of Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills, and will be glad if eome
other weak and ailing girl will pro-
fit by my experience."
Pale' and sallew crieeks, diz,ziness,
headaches, palpitation of the heart,
and the feeling of wearineve that
afflicts so many young girls, will
soon disappear if Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills are used. These pills, also cure
rheumatism, dyspepsia, kidney ail-
ments, St. Vitus' dance, and other
troubles that come from poor blood
and weak nerves. Sold by all deal-

ADDRESSING SOVEREIGNS.
The evolution. of the royal title;
from the simple style of "King of
the English.." in the days of the
Confessor, has, apart from certain
fantastic variations, as in the case
of Elizabeth, been gradual. The
King's full title is "Edward VII. by
the Grace of God of the United
Kingdom of Great Britain and Ire-
land, and of the British Dominions
Beyond the Seas, King, Defender of
the Faith, Eraperor of India."
Henry VL was addressed as "His
Grace" for a time, but became "His
Most Excellent Grace"; while - Ed-
ward IV. was "High and Mighty
Prince," and Henry VII. "His Iligh-
ness." Henry VIII. became "leis
Majesty," Elizabeth was frequently
styled "the Most High, Mighty, and
Magnificent Empress," James 1. was
?addressed as "Most Sacred Ma-
jesty," Queen Anne was "Her Most
Excellent Majesty," and George III.
became "His Most Gracious Ma-
jesty."

THE VALUE OF GOOD ROADS
BENEFITS THAT WOULD A 0-
CRUM TO FARNE"..R.,S.
The Best Road for 'This Country,
and Hints on How to
Build It.
Bad roads constitute the greatest
drawback to rural life, and for the
lack of good roads the farmers suf-
fer more than any other class. Some
of the benefits that would accrue
to fanners through the construction
of good roads are •
'Good -roads, like good streets,
make habitation along them most
desirable; they economize time and
force in teansportation of products,
reduce wear and tear on horses,
harness and vehioles, and 'enhance
the market value of ,and
estate.
They raise the value of Sarni lands
and farm products and tend to
beautify the dountry through Which
they pass ; thev faeflitate rural
delivery, and are a potent aid
to education,religion and sociabil-
ity." Charles Sumner once 'said,
"The road and the schoolmaster are
the two most important agents in
advancing civilization."
on.A.n.n.arERIsTios OF GOOD
ROADS.
The aim in making a good road
is to eetablish the easiest, shorteet,
and most economical line of travel.
It is therefore ddsirable that roads
should be hard, smooth, corepara-
tively level, or laid out on the
ground so that their grades may be
such that loaded vehicles may be
drawn over them without great loss
ldf energy ; that taey should be pro-
perly constructed, the ground well
drained, the roadbed graded, shaped
and rolled, and they should be sur-
faced with the hest materials pro-
curable ; that they should be pro-
perly maintained or kept constantly.
IN GOOD REPAIR.
The rOa.d that will best suit the
needs of the fanner in the first place
must not be tpo costly ; and, in
the second place, Must he of the
very best kind, • for farmers should
be able to do their heavy hauling
over them when their fields are too
We to work, arid their teams would
otherwise be idle.
The best road for the farmer, all
things being considered, is a solid,
well built stone road, so narrow as
to be only a single track, but hav-
ing a firm earth road on one or
both sides. Where the traffic is not
very extensive the purposees of
good roads aro better served by
narrow tracks than by wide ones,
while many of the objectiona,blo
features of wide tracks are removed,
the initial cat of construetioii is
cut down one-half or more, and the
charges for repair reduced in - pro-
portion. Where beds of good gravel
are available this is the simplest,
cheapest and ,most eftective method
of improving diuntryeroade. With
earth alone, however; a very pass-
able road can be made, provided the
principles of location, drainage and
shape of surface, together with'tbat
of keeping the surface as smooth
and Brm as possible by rolling, be
strictly adhered to. In fact a good
earth road is second to none for
summer travel, and superior to
many of the so-called macadam ce
stone roci.ds. But the earth roads
must be covered with sonic artificial
material,' if they are to be made
firm and unyielding at all seasons
andin all.• kinds of, -weather. with a
surface smooth .and Impel -vides to
water.

Inquiries and the National Good
Roads Association of the 'United
States combined their lorces
couple of years ago for' the purpose
of furnishing object lessons on the
construction. and Yalu° of good
roads to farmers in a largo number
of countries. A good roads train
was equipped and run between Chic-
ago and New Orleans, building
short sample stretches of model
road, and holding local conventions
in various counties along the route.
By this means splendid educational
work was done in the direction of
impressing upon the 'People the de-

Realizing the great good that
would be accom.plislied if a similarly
equipped train were operated in
Canada, an effort was made early
in 1901 to arrange Tor work of this
sort in the Ottawa district. Chiedy
through the exertions of -Mr, H. B.
Cowan, of Ottawa, secretary of the
Good lloa,cle Association of Eastern
Ontario, the Sawyer -Massey Coen-
pauy, of Hamilton Ont., =Inutile -

were induced to supply free of
charge all the tecessary Machinery
for such an enterprise, and also
three or four experts to take charge
of and operate the Machinery, The
Canadian Portland Cement Company
of Deseronto, Ont., aided the enter-
prise by donating scene 150 to 200
barrels- of cement for the conetruc-
tion of concrete culverts which are
much more satisfactory Mart wood-

are available for the purpoee. In
order to give an object lesson on
the value ei such roads, e.nel the
proper manner to build them, the
good roads train was employed to
build a model stretch of stone road
froni a third to half a mile in ex-
tent, in each of ten counties, and
to roll and grade an additional
stretch, alio selection cif the va-
riots stretches of road was left
with the County Councils, with the
understanding that the Township
Councils should furaisb all the ne-
cessary stone, teams, laborers, etc.'
Owing to the heavy exrense incur-
red, each. County Council was asked
to make a. grant en $100 for each
stretch of road built.
In building these sample roads, the
first thing is to provide the re-
quisite drainagewhich is the fun-
damental 'Principle of road making.
The roadbed is then shaped - with
the grader, making the center con-
siderably higher than the sides so
that the water will ien,dily run off

After rolling with the big steam
roller, a trench about eight feet
wide and six inches deep is cut
down the centre of the road. into
this trench is put first, a, layer of
coarse broken stone, then a layer of
fine stone, lastly a layer of Stili
filter stone as a dressing. This last
layer helps to bind 0,11 the stone
into a solid mass, while the sides
of the trench hold it all in. place.

each layer of stones as it is put on..

Goes to Show the Wonderful
Advancement Recently Made in
the Science of Medicine.
Napanee, Ont., Oct. 6.—(Special)
—This town has furnished a case
which has caused considerable talk
in the county.
Mrs. John C. Huffman had been
troubled for over six years With fe-
male weakness and kidney trouble.
The pain was so gregt that she could
not bear it and her kidneys. gave
- — -
her so muc1t bother that sbe could
not entertain any company in her
home or take any social pleasures
whatever. Her urine Ne as very much
discolored and gave her great trou-
ble in passing.
In addition to these Symptoms she
had all the pains, headaches, a,nd
weaknesses of Female Trouble.
Mrs. Huffman tried physician's
treatment and many other medicines,
but instead of getting better she
was gradually growing worse and
was very much discouraged.
Many of her friends thought she
would never get better, but one day
she picked up a newspaper and read
an advertisement which said that
Dodd's ICidney Pills would cure
Female Trouble. •
As she had tried ao many other
things without being able te get any
she was very doubtful, but
concluded to try this remedy.
Sho used six boxes and was com-
pletely cured. She is- to -day sound
and well, veithout a 'single symptom
of her old teouble left.
