THE COST OF LIVING AND
THE SIMPLE LiFE.
Special causes, such as high tariffs,
agricultural readjustment, 'higher
wages, and increasing expenditures of
the rich, have operated to raise prices -
The resultant seems to be the outcome
of special forces on the good side of
the price-ratioworking to raise the
prices of goods, more than inventions
and progress in the arts have been
able to depress them. In this respect
the latter differs from the earlier
period.
Lastly, it must be admitted that,
aside from the higher prices of many
staple articles, onr standard of living
has changed with the growing wealth
of the country. Each family now
wishes more expensive food, better
clothes, mare costly millinery, more
pictures and books and those of a
higher price more bicycles and auto-
mobiles, more horseback riding, more
travelling, stays at higher -priced ho-
tels, passage on more expensive
steamers, than formerly -all to keep
up in the procession with the success-
ful rich, who are increasing enor-
mously in number. Every one ex-
pects, as a matter of course, to buy
fruits and vegetables out of season-
such as a very short time ago. were
considered within the reach of only
the largest purses. Our kitchen econ-
omy is quite too wasteful; we throw
away fats and buy lard to take their
place. May it not be the psycholog-
ical hour to call for the creation of a
new aristocracy of the simple life, of
those who care for the reality and
not for the shadow, for the true in-
ward pleasures of the mind rather
than for the external, evanescent
show? May it not be high time to
create a free -masonry of those who do
not ask how much one has, nor how
tnuch one knows, but what one is ?
Gold, in the sense of riches, may be
the root of all evil; but gold, in the
sense of a standard of prices, cannot
be the sole root of the evil in our in-
creased cost of living,

OPPOSITE BRUNSWICK HOTEL
ONE DOOR NORTH O} KING'S
THE HUNDRED POINT MAN.
The Wealthy Class.
.A. correspondent of the Weekly flan
says : --"'All over this province there
are beautiful farm residences which, if
situated in the cities, would, be valued
higher than they are now with the
hupdred acres of fertile landupon
which they are situated thrown in.
This state of things cannot last for
all time, There must come, sooner
or later, an equalizing of valnes.
Taking values as they exist, the farm-
ing class, 1 believe, le the wealthiest
class. I think it is safe to say that 00
per cent, of farmers are solvent; that
50 per cent. of these are worth up-
wards of $5,000 ; that 25 per cent, are
worth upwards of $10,000, and pro-
bably 10 per cent, upwards of $25,000.
I am speaking now of older Ontario.
If it could be known the amount of
money on deposit in the banks by
farmers, the general public, and farm-
ers theinselves, would bo startled. If
farmers all deckled to withdraw their
deposits there would be a panic. If
this be true 'what would farmers be
wortih at city valuations ?"
A hundred -point man is the one who
is true to every trust, who keeps his
word, whois loyal to the man who
employs him, who does not listen for
insults nor look for slights, who
carries a civil tongue in his head, who
is polite with strangers without being
fresh, who is considerate towards
servants, who is moderate in his eat-
ing and drinking, who is willing to
learn, who is cautious and yet
courageous.
Hundred point men may vary much
in ability, but this is always true ;
they are safe men to deal with,
whether drivers of 'drays, motormen,
clerks, cashiers, engineers or presi-
dents of railroads.
The hundred -point man may not
look just like all other men, or dress
like them, but what he does is true
to his own nature. He is himself.
He is more interested in doing his
work than in what people will say
about it. He does not consider the
gallery. He acts his thoughts and
thinks little of the act.
The hundred -point man looks after
just one individual, and that is the
man under his own hat; he is one who
does not spend money until he earns
it; who pays his way, who knows
that nothing is ever given for nothing,
who keeps his digits off other people's
property. When he does not know
what to say, why, he says nothing,
and when he does not know what to
do, he does not do it -Philistine.
FOR A LABOR SUNDAY.
Manitoba Uleotions.
It le understood that a general Pro-
vincial election for Manitoba will take
place next month. The new Liberal
leader, T. G. Norris, Is holding a series
of meetings throughout the Province
and Liberals are expected to make a
determined effort to capture the Gov-
ernment,
Rabies In Ontario.
Dr, .A. J, Amyot, Director of the
Labratory of the Provincial Board of
Health, says that there is without a
doubt rabies in Ontario, and the situ-
ation is a serious one, At present he
says the disease is confined to the
western part of the province, extend-
ing from Hamilton to Essex Centre,
through London and the whole sec-
tion, however, It is also to be found
from London to Goderich and there is
some at Owen Sound. Sines the 4th
of March said Dr. Amyot, the brains
of 137 animals have been examined
in the laboratory of the board of
health, and of these some 05 or 70
have proven positive cases of rabies.
The Annihilation Of Space.
Not many years ago it was a very
common thing to hear a man say, "I
am from such and such a county,"
Whoever hears or speaks of counties
nowadays ? The passing of the ox -
team and the coming of the horseless
carriage have obliterated county lines.
How long does a county last with a
forty horse -power automobile whizz-
ing along the road ? The 20th Century
Limited trains almost as effectually
dispose of state lines, When you can
leave New York late in the afternoon
and be in Chicago early the following
morning, one city is little mot than•
a suburb of the other. And if the
aeroplane pecomes a practical thing,
what will become of international
lines? When a man can sit at bis desk
in Boston and talk to aman who is at
his desk in Chicago, and close a busi-
ness transaction without either man
leaving his chair, each recognizing the
other's voice, what matters it that
there are three or four states separat-
ing their bodies? Their minds have
met more quickly than could have
been the case had they been in adjoin-
ing buildings twenty-five years ago.
Electricity has emancipated the mind
from the body and given it wings !
It is the mind, not the body, that does
business. Think of it! By placing a
wire to one's ear the mind and the
voice can fly to a distant city, do busi-
ness there and return, and immedi-
ately go off to another city, do busi-
ness there and return, and do this as
many times in a day as occasion re-
quires. -George W. Perkins in June
Busy Man's.
At the Toronto Convention (1000) of
the American Federation of Labor the
following resolution was adopted
Whereas the churches and the clergy
are taking a growing interest in the
study of the labor movement; and,
Whereas many of the ministers of the
various denominations are indicating
that interest, in part, by a public disk
mission in their pulpits of the prob.
lems of the toilers ; and, Whereas it
would be an advantage to both church
and labor to select a special day upon
which the attention of all classes may
be concentrated upon the questions
which concern the toilers; therefore,
be it Resolved, That the Sunday pre.
ceding the first Monday in September
be officially designated by the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor as "Labor
Sunday," and that the churches of
America be requested to devote some
part of this day to a presentation of
the labor questiOnn
,and be it further
Resolved, that the various central and
local labor bodies be requested to co.
operate itt every legitimate way with
the ministers, who thus observe Label,
Sunday, eeeking, with them, to secure
as large an audiente of working men
and others as possible.

Parisian Sage, The Hair Grower, is
Now Sold In Canada On Money
Back Plan.
It's a mighty good thing for the
women of Canada that Parisian Sage
can now be obtained in every town of
consequence.
No preparation for the hair has
done so much to stop falling hair and
eradicate dandruff and make women's
hair beautiful as Parisian Sage.
Parisian Sage is the only certain
destroyer of the dandruff microbe
which is the cause of 97 per cent of
hair troubles.
These pernicious, persistent and de-
structive little devils thrive on the
ordinary hair tonics.
Parisian Sage is such an extraordi-
nary and quick acting rejuvenator
that J. W. McKibbon, who is the
agent in Wingham, guarantees it to
cure dandruff, stop falling hair and
itching scalp in two weeks or money
back.
It is a magnificent dressing for
women who desire luxuriant, lustrous
hair that compels admiration.
And a large bottle of Parisian Sags
costs only 50 cents at W. McKibbon's
and all over Canada.
To Kill Dandelions.
Some lawns have become so infested
with these pests that they have lost
their beauty and attractiveness. Tests
were made by Wisconsin Agricultural
Experiment station, to determine if it
is feasible to eradicate these pests by
the use of iron sulphate solution. For
this test the solution was made by
using one-fifth iron sulphate and four-
fifths water by weight.' Dandelions
were sprayed in the morning after the
dew had dissappeared and the day
promised fair. On the Iawns the hand
sprayer or spriukling can with fine
nozzle was used, and the field sprayer
was used on large plots. The first
spraying test seemed to eradicate the
larger portion sof the dandelion in the
lawns. The more persistent plants
that revived after the spraying were
sprinkled with dry iron sulphate in
the evening three days after the lawns
were sprayed, This application killed
nearly all the remaining plants. The
spraying bad no detrimental effect
upon the lawn grass. It was discolor-
ed to some extent, but soon regained
its color and was as green as ever.
Since the iron sulphate solution will
discolor cement walks and light color-
ed clothing, care should be exercised
in its use.

years duration, and the Anti -
Pain Pills are as necessary to

WM. J. LOUGHRAN,
I2I4 Catherine St.,
Philadelphia, Penna.
Much sickness is due to nerv-
ous troubles. Headache, diz-
ziness, epilepsy and insanity are
nervous troubles. Then there
is a large class of disorders
which arise from a weakness of
the nerves of an organ or part,
as weak lungs, heart, stomach,
kidney, bladder, eyes, - etc.
Dyspepsia and indigestion are
usually the result of nervous
disorders.
Restorative Nervine
soothes the irritated nerves, and
assists the nerve cells to gener-
ate nerve force.
