What A Great Man Said To
The Great American People.
Parisian Sage,, is a discovery of a
celebrated scientist, who spent the
bent years of his life inperfecting this
great hair tonic.. In giving hie recipe
to the American people he said,
" Plet•if'ittu Flare is the most delightful
hair dressing in the world, hut it is
more than a 'hatr dressing. It cures
dandruff by killing the g1 ims that
infest the roots of the hair; it stops
falling hair; it gives vigor and
strength to the hair roots, W. J.
McKibben sells Parisian Sage at 00e a
large bottle and guarantees it to do all
that is claimed for it, or your money
is refunded. If you do not reside near
a druggist who eel's Parisian Sage,
send 50e to Giroux Mfg.. 0o., Fort
Erie, Ont., and.a bottle will be sent
you ell charges prepaid.
Avoid overheated Rooms.
At this time of year it is opportune
to call attention to the necessity of a
reasonable temperature in homes and
schools. The cold season, when rooms
and houses are heated and over -heated
to counteract the blasts of winter
without, is the season of coughs, colds
and sickness. Fortunately we are be-
ginning to grow somewhat wiser as to
causes, and the motion that the pure,
cold air brought disease and illness is
no longer the accepted idea it once
was. Ae a matter of fact, colds and
coughs are contracted' in the house,
not in the open, Headaches, general
lassitude and sleeplessness are winter
favorites in the heated, ill -ventilated
house. An excellent idea is being put
into practice in New York at present.
The director of physical training in
the public school has issued a general
notice to school teachers ordering
them to keep the temperature of the
school rooms lower than in the past.
Hithertofore the temperature has
been kept at 70 degrees. After this it
will stand at OS. It is likely that a
further reduction will follow. The
idea is borrowed from Britain where
the school rooms are kept at a mean
temperature at 60 degrees. The rea-
son for ordering the reduced temper-
ature is that the scholars will do bet-
ter work, The cooler the air in the
school room the purer it will be, and
also the heads of the pupils will be
clearer.
SAVED HER HAIR.
Zam-Buk Cured Scalp Eczema.
If you have eczema, ringworm or
any scalp sore, do not permit your
hair to be cut off without first trying
Zam-Buk, Mrs. David Monteith of 92
tr t
Bertrand N
n street, Norwood, Winnip
says :—"My daughter contractede
ec-
zema, of the scalp, and this broke out
regularly for three years in succession.
It would probably have been recur-
ring yet each season had it nbt been
for Zam-Buk. The eczema first start- •
ed with an outbreak of little red, wat-
ery pimples, which turned into large
sores. We consulted a medical man,
and tried lotions, t 1 encpowders,salves and
all kinds of things ut in vin.
"Each time the disease appeared her
hair had to be cut off. When this had
been :lone three times a friend sug-
gested that, as other things had failed,
I should try Zam-Buk, instead of again
consulting a doctor and going through
the old and ineffective programme. I
acted on this advice, and obtained
some 'Lana-Buk.. Almost as soon as
this was applied the child experienced
relief. The itching and irritation
seemed to be soothed, and in several
places, after some days' treatment,
there appeared marked signs of im-
provement so we thought we would
not this time cut off the hair.
"We kept on applying Zana-Buk,
until in a few weeks it was very evi-
dent a complete cure was being effect-
ed. In the end all the sores were
healed, the hair over the affected parts
had grown again, and at the present
time her scalp ie healthy and quite
free from every trace of sore or ecze-
ma." The same healing virtue is re-
sponsible for cure of ulcers, abscesses,
running sores, cuts, cracks, scalds,
burns, piles, abrasions, etc. For chip
siren's rashes there is nothing to equal
Zam-Buk, as it is so pure. All drug-

u directors have pleasure in reporting that since the affairs of the
Bank were last placed before you at the annual meeting of the shareholders
in January, 1909, there has been a steady development in all departments of
its business as Is evidenced by the statement submitted.
During a considerable period of the year some difficulty was experienced
in fully employing the Bank's funds at remunerative rates, but as a result
of improving trade conditions and the harvesting of an excellent crop, the
.demand for legitimate banking accommodation has increased, and there is
every reason to expect a prosperous current year.
Following the policy of conservative extension new branches have been
established in important Western centres, and at other points in Canada
where it appeared advantageous to do so.
Offices were opened during the year as f IIo
ws:--AL Victoria,, B.C.; in
Saskatchewan, at Guernsey, Hanley, Melville, Moose Jaw and Saskatoon;
In Alberta, at Ciareshoim and High River; at the corner of Guy and St. Cath-
erine streets, Montreal; in Ontario, of Mallon, Rectory street, London; and
in• Toronto at Doer Park, Wychwood, and near the corner of Lee avenue and
Queen street.
The Branch at Linwood, Ontario, was closed in March last.
Desirable sties have been purchased in Calgary, Edmonton, Brandon and
Moose a
c. Jaw, also at the, corners of Qaeen street and Lee avenue, Bloor and
Sherborne streets, and Yonge street and St. Clair avenue, Toronto, and at
the corner of St. Lawrence boulevard and Prince Arthur street, Montreal.
It is the intention to erect suitable buildings on these properties at a reason-
able outlay.
The new office buildingss in Windsor andFort William were completed
and occupied In 1909.
The authorized capital stock of th e bank at this time is $55,000,000, of
which $4,000,000 has been issued and fully paid up. A by-law will be sub-
mitted for your approval providing for a further increase of $5,000,000, which,
together with the $1,000,000 already authorized hut not Issued, will be of-
fered to shareholders from time to time in such amounts as the expansion of
business warrants.
You will alsobeasked to approve of a by-law changing the par value
of shares from $50 to $100 each.
The directors, as is customary, have verified the Cash Assets, Securities
andvarious ar ons i ve

statement.
In addition, the General Balance Sheet of the Bank as on the 31st De-
cember, 1909, detailed herein, has been checked and found to be correct, in-
cluding the auditing of all Foreign Accounts,
Every branch of the bank has undergone the usual .thorough Inspection
during the year,

SCIENCE ON THE SOIL
An Increase of Yield Obtained by

This Is the age of scientific farm-
ing, Take the results from grain by
the application of phosphates to the
soil. The lack of phosphates is not
lipifted to the older sections of the
country. In Wisconsin, for example,
it has been customary in the wooded
districts to clear but small fields and
crop these fields continuously for a
number of years very largely to grass-
es for hay, chiefly timothy. This prac-
tice 'has had the effect of greatly re-
ducing the available phosphates of the

When we called last August at the Keewatin mills, we reminded
the Local Manager r of that moth-
eaten story—
About the mill owner who boasted that though his mill was the
dirtiest in five counties his flour was Clean.
The Manager laughed heartily, but shook his head most decidedly.
" My only regret," he said, " is that
we're inuch

place here, if we could only get
more visitors, it would be the best
advertisement FIVE ROSES could
have."
"You don't hear so much about
water power mills these days", he
continued as we watched the men
putting in new stop logs, " maybe
because they are solely. It certainly
gives us a big advantage."
" In fuel economy? " we asked off-
hand.
" In cleanliness above all " he
quickly added. You see how light,
and airy, and free from dirt this plant
is. The absence ofasmoltychimney
and steam power plant helps a lot."
I * o
The first impression one has of the
FIVE ROSES premises is of im-
mense size and spotless brightness
and cleanliness.
The ventilation system is
really wonderful, The sun-
Iight penetrates everywhere
both on account of the large
number-
of double sized
windows and the peculiar construc-
tionf

Sunlight, you know, is the fatal foe
of germs and bacilli.
When our guide regretfully declined
a good kiavana. cigar which we had
saved all the way from Winnipeg,
we almost fainted.
It was only then we saw the plaids
on the walls—"Positr'uely rro smoking

the metal parts polished like piano

We do honestly believe the FIVE
ROSES mills are the most sanitary

have seen a few.
When you have been through the
