Storage Battery Cars From
Goderich To Kincardine,
People have been wondering why
the building of the Ontario West
Shore electric railway has progressed
so far with no signs of trolley poles
and wires. The storage battery cars
is the explanation which J. W. Moyes,
president of the road, gives to those
concerned. This kind of electric car
is the latest triumph of Thomas A.
Edison. It has now passed the experi-
mental stage it is stated, and the elec-
tric road here will operate the first to
be used in Canada. It will travel
from New York to Goderieh, Mr.
Moyes states, on its own wheels.
For two years Thos. A. Edison,
with R. H. Beach, electrical engineer,
schemed and worked behind high
board fences at West Orange, New
Jersey, before the storage battery car
became a practical factor, and gave
promise of driving a few thousand
hard-working trolley cars out of their
jobs.
The storage battery car is capable
6f running 150 miles without recharg-
ing, at a cost of one cent per mile, it is
claimed, and will climb any ordinary
grade, It saves twenty-five per cent,
of the cost of overhead construction,
for there are no overhead wires, no
poles, no transmission cables, and no
track bonding. There is also a ma-
terial saving in the power plant, for
on a trolley line the plant must be
powerful enough to move the maxi-
mum amount of traffic.
The greatest saving, however, it ap-
pears, is in the cost of operation. The
Edison patent storage battery car
weighs from one-half to one-third as
much as the ordinary trolley car of
similar capacity, yet the Edison car is
stronger, because of special construc-
tion,
Ordinarily a battery is charged for
seven hours, but the first time it is
charged for fifteen hours. This over-
charge is repeated once every two
weeks for the first two months and
every two months thereafter. The
loss of perhaps twenty-five per cent.
in power from the time the current
leaves the generator in the power
house until used in the motor of
the ordinary trolley is, of course,
avoided.
Costs Are Heavy.
The attempt to have the Chesley
local option by-law set aside has not
ended, though the courts so far have
sustained the by-law. Now the At-
torney -General has directed an en-
quiry with regard to an affidavit made
,icy W. G. Durst, a Chesley manufac-
turer. The investigation will be in
the hands of J. B. McKenzie, and will
take place at Walkerton before M.
McNamara, J. P, Its purpose is to
ascertain whether the statement in
the affidavit is true that- Mr. Durst
produced his appointment as agent for
the temperance party at the polling
booth, Without it, it is said, he could
not vote, and owing to the extremely
close voting the by-law would be lost
without this vote. It is estimated
that the costs of Philip Schumacher,
the Chesley hotelkeeper, have already
amounted to between $500 to $700.
FOR CONSTIPATION,
A Medicine That Does Not Cost
Anything Unless It Cures.
The active medicinal ingredients of
%texall Orderlies, which are odorless,
tasteless and colorless, is an entirely
new discovery. Combined with other
extremely' valuable ingredients, it
forms a perfect bowel regulator, in-
testintil invigorator and strengthener,
Rexall Orderlies are eaten like candy
and aro notable for their agreeable-
ness to the palate and gentleness of
action. They do not cause griping or
any disagreeable effect or inconveni-
i ence,
Unlike other preparation for a like
purpose, they do not create a habit,
but instead they overcome the cause
of habit acquired through the nee of
ordinary, laxatives, cathartics and
harsh physic, and permanently re-
move the cause of constipation or les
regular bowel action.

A Hard Salt,
On Wednesday last, Arnold Davis,
a successful young farmer, who lives
near Woodstock, fell from an apple
tree about fourteen feet, and, alight-
ing on Ms chest and face, sustained
severe injerfes, Two doctors sunis
mooed found him paralyzed and fear
his spinal column le injured, Very
slight hopes are entertained for re-
covery,
Preserving Brooms.
With the increase cost of brooms
the thrifty housewife wishes to pre-
serve thele usefulness as long as pos-
Bible, Soak a new broom fpr several
minutes in hot suds, this toughens
the whisps, Then hang it upto dry.
A broom when not in Ilse should al-
ways be hung up. Out a groove in
the handle and tie a cord around it,
leaving a loop for hanging. The soak-
ing process should be repeated every
fortnight. One housewife washes her
broom in cold soap water, Rinse
thoroughly in cold water, snap off all
moisture possible and pressing the
corns into shape, place where they
dry slowly.

No Time For Delay.
Quick decision, under the tragic cir-
cumstances, was called for on the part
of Capt. Gleaves, of the United States
battleship North Dakota, when fire
broke out on the ship during a recent
cruise. An experiment was being
made with the use of oil for fuel, and
as a result of a leak there was a sud-
den flash of fire, which, if not instant-
ly controlled, threatened the destruc-
tion of the vessel and her crew, At
Capt. Gleaves' hand were electric but.
tons and levers which controlled the
mechanism of the whole ship. By
touching one' buttonhe knew he
would put machinery in motion that
would release a flood of water suffi-
cient to drown out the flames, but at
the same time would cause the death
of a number of the ship's company in
the part of the vessel to be flooded.
On the other hand, even by a second's
delay, ' he realized that he would
jeopardize the lives of a thousnad oth-
er men. The Captain did not hesitate,
but pressed the button which extin-
guised the fire, and in doing so drown-
ed three of tlip crew, and saved the
vessel and the rest of the crew from
annihilation.
Bolting Our Food.
Dr, Henry 0. Ferris, recording sec-
retary of the New York State Dental
Socifety, recently presented an illumin-
ating report showing the effects of the
bolting of food. Dr. Ferris addressed
a letter to one hundred and fifty of
the prominent medical men of this
country in which he asked them if
they considered imperfect chewing
and salivating of food a factor in dis-
eases of the stomach and intestines,
and, if so, what conditions resulted
from such neglect? Out of the hun-
dred and fifty replies that Dr. Ferris
received 08 per cent. of these physi-
cians said that chewing food was an
important factor toward good health
and that the bolting of food frequent-
ly caused cancer, catarrh of the stom-
ach and gastrie ulcers. If food is not
thoroughly chewed and is permitted
to reach the stomach in such. large
lumps or masses, there is no question
that it must injure the soft lining of
that organ, producing ntany of the
cases of ulcers and catarrh that need
Careful and consistent medical atten-
tion. Some further comments on this
question are to be found in the course
of a review in October Busy Man's,

A aeN RO[ls OFFER.
W. I. McKibbon Will Refund
Yottr Money If Parisian Sage
Doesn't Banish Dandruff,
Pretty strong talk, perhaps you will
say, but it's honest talk, every word
of it, because if W. S. McE.ibbon was
not absolutely certain ; if he did not
know from actual results obtained he
could not make such la generous
offer.
Parisian Sage, which can now be
obtained in every town hi Canada, is
also guaranteed to stop falling hair
and itching seaip.
It is the ideal, delightful, rejuvenat-
ing hair dressing that makes hair
grow in abundance. Parisian Sago is
a prime favorite with Women, because
it keeps the hair brilliant and factn-
ating, is daintily perfumed, and is not
et/Ay or grestey.
The p,>ice for a large bottle is only

tees it. Sold everywhere, or direct,

Prove At Our Rist:,
Marvelous as It may seem, Rexall
"93" Hair Tonio has grown hair on
heads that were once bald, Of course,
in none of these cases were the hair
roots dead, nor had the scalp taken on
a glazed, shiny appearance.
Rexall "03" hair Tonle acts scienti-
fically, destroying the 'germs which.
are usually responsible for baldness.,
It penetrates to the roots of the hair
stimulating and nourishing them. It
is a most pleasant toilet necessity, is
delicately perfumed, and will not gum
or permanently .stain the hair.
We want you to get a bottle of Rex -
all "93" Hair Tonic and use it as
directed. If it does not relieve scalp
irritation, remove dandruff, prevent
the hair from falling out and promote
an increased growth of hair, and in
every way give entire satisfaction,
simply come back and tell us, and
without question or formality we will
hand back to you every penny you
paid us for it. Two sizes, 50c aed $1.

Huron Boy Has Rabies.
Suffering from rabies in a mild
stage, a 2 -year-old boy was taken to
Toronto from Grand Bend in Huron
Oo., and is now taking the Pasteur
treatment at the General Hospital.
The little boy was playing with a
small dog when the animal bit him
slightly on the face and scratched his
lips. There are now three rabies pati.
ents in the General Hospital, To-
ronto.
C,P,R. Extensions.
It is reported that the Canadian
Pacific Railway Oompany has taken
over the charter of the St. Marys and
Western Ontario Railway Company,
and has at last secured an entrance
into the city of Stratford and the rich
farming country surrounding it. This
charter was granted to a number of
prominent people in that part of Wes.
tern Ontario which lies between Strat-
ford and Grand Bend on Lake Huron
and for the construction of a railway
between these points, and also from a
point on that line to Linwood on the
C.P.R. branch line to Goderich, The
charter provides for a line from Strat-
ford to Grand Bend, a well known
summer resort on Lake Huron.
Women Tenants' Vote.
Port Elgin is to have aLocal Option
contest in January, and at the Judge's
Court of Revision, His Honor Judge
Barrett decided that women could not
vote on tenant qualification and that
those who were already on the list as
tenants could be sworn. The decision
was received with general surprise, as
it has been the general rule to al-
low women to vote who were on the
municipal list as tenants. Rev. Mr.
Cooley, who is president of the local
option committee, said that the or-
ganization would take the matter up
with the temperance officials in To-
ronto and have it referred to the legal
committee; he contended that the rule
was out of harmony with the general
practice in the province.
The Cigarette Evil.
Cigarette smoking in Canada is in-
creasing by leaps and bounds. The
number of cigarettes consumed for
the fiscal year, 'ending last March,
totals 469,711,091, an increase of over a
hundred.million as compared with the
preceeding year. In the fiscal year of
1908-09 the financial depression in-
fluenced cigarette smoking, and
there 'was a falling off then, the
figures being only 368,295,706, as com-
pared with 398,307,344 in 1977-8. The
increase of over a hundred millions in
the production of cigarettes during
the last fiscal year is the largest on re-
cord, and points to a rather alarming
indication of good times, It may be
noted also that this increase is despite
the anti•cigarette_ legislation of the
Dominion Parliament two sessions
ago.

Storage Battery Cars From
Goderich To Kincardine,
People have been wondering why
the building of the Ontario West
Shore electric railway has progressed
so far with no signs of trolley poles
and wires. The storage battery cars
is the explanation which J. W. Moyes,
president of the road, gives to those
concerned. This kind of electric car
is the latest triumph of Thomas A.
Edison. It has now passed the experi-
mental stage it is stated, and the elec-
tric road here will operate the first to
be used in Canada. It will travel
from New York to Goderieh, Mr.
Moyes states, on its own wheels.
For two years Thos. A. Edison,
with R. H. Beach, electrical engineer,
schemed and worked behind high
board fences at West Orange, New
Jersey, before the storage battery car
became a practical factor, and gave
promise of driving a few thousand
hard-working trolley cars out of their
jobs.
The storage battery car is capable
6f running 150 miles without recharg-
ing, at a cost of one cent per mile, it is
claimed, and will climb any ordinary
grade, It saves twenty-five per cent,
of the cost of overhead construction,
for there are no overhead wires, no
poles, no transmission cables, and no
track bonding. There is also a ma-
terial saving in the power plant, for
on a trolley line the plant must be
powerful enough to move the maxi-
mum amount of traffic.
The greatest saving, however, it ap-
pears, is in the cost of operation. The
Edison patent storage battery car
weighs from one-half to one-third as
much as the ordinary trolley car of
similar capacity, yet the Edison car is
stronger, because of special construc-
tion,
Ordinarily a battery is charged for
seven hours, but the first time it is
charged for fifteen hours. This over-
charge is repeated once every two
weeks for the first two months and
every two months thereafter. The
loss of perhaps twenty-five per cent.
in power from the time the current
leaves the generator in the power
house until used in the motor of
the ordinary trolley is, of course,
avoided.
Costs Are Heavy.
The attempt to have the Chesley
local option by-law set aside has not
ended, though the courts so far have
sustained the by-law. Now the At-
torney -General has directed an en-
quiry with regard to an affidavit made
,icy W. G. Durst, a Chesley manufac-
turer. The investigation will be in
the hands of J. B. McKenzie, and will
take place at Walkerton before M.
McNamara, J. P, Its purpose is to
ascertain whether the statement in
the affidavit is true that- Mr. Durst
produced his appointment as agent for
the temperance party at the polling
booth, Without it, it is said, he could
not vote, and owing to the extremely
close voting the by-law would be lost
without this vote. It is estimated
that the costs of Philip Schumacher,
the Chesley hotelkeeper, have already
amounted to between $500 to $700.
FOR CONSTIPATION,
A Medicine That Does Not Cost
Anything Unless It Cures.
The active medicinal ingredients of
%texall Orderlies, which are odorless,
tasteless and colorless, is an entirely
new discovery. Combined with other
extremely' valuable ingredients, it
forms a perfect bowel regulator, in-
testintil invigorator and strengthener,
Rexall Orderlies are eaten like candy
and aro notable for their agreeable-
ness to the palate and gentleness of
action. They do not cause griping or
any disagreeable effect or inconveni-
i ence,
Unlike other preparation for a like
purpose, they do not create a habit,
but instead they overcome the cause
of habit acquired through the nee of
ordinary, laxatives, cathartics and
harsh physic, and permanently re-
move the cause of constipation or les
regular bowel action.

Bible, Soak a new broom fpr several
minutes in hot suds, this toughens
the whisps, Then hang it upto dry.
A broom when not in Ilse should al-
ways be hung up. Out a groove in

leaving a loop for hanging. The soak-

No Time For Delay.
Quick decision, under the tragic cir-
cumstances, was called for on the part
of Capt. Gleaves, of the United States
battleship North Dakota, when fire
broke out on the ship during a recent
cruise. An experiment was being
made with the use of oil for fuel, and
as a result of a leak there was a sud-
den flash of fire, which, if not instant-
ly controlled, threatened the destruc-
tion of the vessel and her crew, At
Capt. Gleaves' hand were electric but.
tons and levers which controlled the
mechanism of the whole ship. By
touching one' buttonhe knew he
would put machinery in motion that
would release a flood of water suffi-
cient to drown out the flames, but at
the same time would cause the death
of a number of the ship's company in
the part of the vessel to be flooded.
On the other hand, even by a second's
delay, ' he realized that he would
jeopardize the lives of a thousnad oth-
er men. The Captain did not hesitate,
but pressed the button which extin-
guised the fire, and in doing so drown-
ed three of tlip crew, and saved the
vessel and the rest of the crew from
annihilation.
Bolting Our Food.
Dr, Henry 0. Ferris, recording sec-
retary of the New York State Dental
Socifety, recently presented an illumin-
ating report showing the effects of the
bolting of food. Dr. Ferris addressed
a letter to one hundred and fifty of
the prominent medical men of this
country in which he asked them if
they considered imperfect chewing
and salivating of food a factor in dis-
eases of the stomach and intestines,
and, if so, what conditions resulted
from such neglect? Out of the hun-
dred and fifty replies that Dr. Ferris
received 08 per cent. of these physi-
cians said that chewing food was an
important factor toward good health
and that the bolting of food frequent-
ly caused cancer, catarrh of the stom-
ach and gastrie ulcers. If food is not
thoroughly chewed and is permitted
to reach the stomach in such. large
lumps or masses, there is no question
that it must injure the soft lining of
that organ, producing ntany of the
cases of ulcers and catarrh that need
Careful and consistent medical atten-
tion. Some further comments on this
question are to be found in the course
of a review in October Busy Man's,

W. I. McKibbon Will Refund
Yottr Money If Parisian Sage
Doesn't Banish Dandruff,
Pretty strong talk, perhaps you will
say, but it's honest talk, every word
of it, because if W. S. McE.ibbon was
not absolutely certain ; if he did not
know from actual results obtained he
could not make such la generous
offer.
Parisian Sage, which can now be
obtained in every town hi Canada, is
also guaranteed to stop falling hair
and itching seaip.
It is the ideal, delightful, rejuvenat-
ing hair dressing that makes hair
grow in abundance. Parisian Sago is
a prime favorite with Women, because
it keeps the hair brilliant and factn-
ating, is daintily perfumed, and is not
et/Ay or grestey.

Marvelous as It may seem, Rexall
"93" Hair Tonio has grown hair on
heads that were once bald, Of course,
in none of these cases were the hair
roots dead, nor had the scalp taken on
a glazed, shiny appearance.
Rexall "03" hair Tonle acts scienti-
fically, destroying the 'germs which.
are usually responsible for baldness.,
It penetrates to the roots of the hair
stimulating and nourishing them. It
is a most pleasant toilet necessity, is
delicately perfumed, and will not gum
or permanently .stain the hair.
We want you to get a bottle of Rex -
all "93" Hair Tonic and use it as
directed. If it does not relieve scalp
irritation, remove dandruff, prevent
the hair from falling out and promote
an increased growth of hair, and in
every way give entire satisfaction,

without question or formality we will
hand back to you every penny you
paid us for it. Two sizes, 50c aed $1.

Huron Boy Has Rabies.
Suffering from rabies in a mild
stage, a 2 -year-old boy was taken to
Toronto from Grand Bend in Huron
Oo., and is now taking the Pasteur
treatment at the General Hospital.
The little boy was playing with a
small dog when the animal bit him
slightly on the face and scratched his
lips. There are now three rabies pati.
ents in the General Hospital, To-
ronto.
C,P,R. Extensions.
It is reported that the Canadian
Pacific Railway Oompany has taken
over the charter of the St. Marys and
Western Ontario Railway Company,
and has at last secured an entrance
into the city of Stratford and the rich
farming country surrounding it. This
charter was granted to a number of
prominent people in that part of Wes.
tern Ontario which lies between Strat-
ford and Grand Bend on Lake Huron
and for the construction of a railway
between these points, and also from a
point on that line to Linwood on the
C.P.R. branch line to Goderich, The
charter provides for a line from Strat-
ford to Grand Bend, a well known
summer resort on Lake Huron.
Women Tenants' Vote.
Port Elgin is to have aLocal Option
contest in January, and at the Judge's
Court of Revision, His Honor Judge
Barrett decided that women could not
vote on tenant qualification and that
those who were already on the list as
tenants could be sworn. The decision
was received with general surprise, as
it has been the general rule to al-
low women to vote who were on the
municipal list as tenants. Rev. Mr.
Cooley, who is president of the local
option committee, said that the or-
ganization would take the matter up
with the temperance officials in To-
ronto and have it referred to the legal
committee; he contended that the rule
was out of harmony with the general
practice in the province.
The Cigarette Evil.
Cigarette smoking in Canada is in-
creasing by leaps and bounds. The
number of cigarettes consumed for
the fiscal year, 'ending last March,
totals 469,711,091, an increase of over a
hundred.million as compared with the
preceeding year. In the fiscal year of
1908-09 the financial depression in-
fluenced cigarette smoking, and
there 'was a falling off then, the
figures being only 368,295,706, as com-
pared with 398,307,344 in 1977-8. The
increase of over a hundred millions in
the production of cigarettes during
the last fiscal year is the largest on re-
cord, and points to a rather alarming
indication of good times, It may be
noted also that this increase is despite
the anti•cigarette_ legislation of the
Dominion Parliament two sessions
ago.
