TO ADVERTISERS
Notice of changes must be left at this
office net later than saturday n,>on.
The copy for changes must be left! The attempt of the Postmaster -Gen -
not later than Monday evening.
Casual advertisements accepted up eral to have some names of places in
to noon Wednesday of each week. i Ontario changed to French names f , l
ed, but the idea has taken hold of
Montreal Aldermen, who have changed
the names of a dozen familiar streets
to French names, so French that the
average English-speaking Canadian has
to listen twice and then he eannot com-
prehend them.
Still, people who live in glass houses
should not become militant and perform
the Pankhurst speeialty.
Far be it from us to throw bricks,
when, just a few years ago, all the
streets in Walkerville were changed!
from ordinary Canadian names to those I,
they use at'ome --Devonshire road and I
Argyle road, ete.
How would it be to cut out all this
French and English business and just
have Canadian names and Canadian
everything?
Of course, this suggestion may be
considered treason in this country, but
suppose we try it.

FARMERS ARE DESPERATE.
(Toronto Star.)
A contemporary prints a picture of
the Hon. Thomas White, with a stern
and shrewd expression, indicating that
he will not be gold -bricked at Wash-
ington. Right beside the cartoon is an
interview with Mr.Witlis,superintendent
of the Traders Bank branches, who has
been travelling in Saskatchewan. Here
are some of his sayings:
"The farmers are desperate—and
the banks too. If a bank manager
threatens to seize a farmer's wheat to
cover the latter's notes, the farmer
says, `Go ahead, take it, but what can
you do with it?' "
"The farmers seemed to feel aggriev-
ed that the wheat did not get a chance
to go south, the opportunity having,
been nullified by the failure of reciproc-
ity to carry."
This shows clearly how foolish Mr.
Fielding and Mr. Paterson were in ob-
taining access to the America market
for the Western farmer. The farmer
would have been better off, the Cana-
dian banks would have been better off,
and the Ontario manufacturers would
have been better off. All are now suf-
fering from the grain blockade. Can
the very shrewd gentlemen who suc-
ceeded Mr. Fielding and Mr. Paterson
suggest any remedy? Will the Ameri-
can farmer, deprived of the American
market, grow fat upon the statistics
to be gathered by the Tariff Commis-
sion?
TARIFFS AND PROSPERITY.
THE GROWTH OF THE NEW NORTH.
The New Liskeard Speaker, a bright
and ably conducted journal published in
that town shows how the New North
has grown and spread out in what
seems to us in older Ontario an incred-
ibly short time. It says:
Temiskaming of to -day is as far in
advance of the Temiskaming of ten
years ago, as the Toronto of to -day is
in advance of the "Muddy York" of 80
years ago.
Ten years ago there were only three
polling plaees in Temiskaming. At
the general elections last fall there
were about sixty polling places. Ten
years ago there was not a tree chopped
on land where is now situated four in-
corporated towns.
Ten years ago there were only one
or two municipalities in Temiskaming.
To -day there are fourteen municipali-
ties here.
Ten years ago there was not a news-
paper in Temiskaming. To -day there
is one splendid daily and six weeklies.
We might say that the district has
increased in regard to all matters which
go to make for comfort and prosperity
as much as in population. The towns
have splendid schools, churches, public
buildings, and residences, while the
farmers, many of them, for distances
ranging over thirty miles, have tele-
phones, and those living along one
leading road have the rural mail deliv-
ery,
(Toronto Star.)
The Telegram presents its readers
with the discovery that there was no
Fielding tariff — that there was no
change made in 1897, except the Brit-
ish preference, which was a mere de-
tail.
Between 1S96 and 1911 the trade of
Canada was increased from $239,000,000
to more than $700,000,000. In the last
four years of the old tariff there were
deficits aggregating six million dollars.
In the fifteen years of the new tariff
there were surpluses agregating nearly
two hundred millions. Before 1897 the
country was in a state of depression
bordering upon stagnation. From 1897
to the present time the country has
been prosperous and progressive.
It is true that both tariffs were pro-
tective; but one was badly framed and
the other intelligently framed by men
who understood their business.
It is true also that the prosperity of
the country was due to other causes be-
sides the tariff. In the main, it was
due to the development of the West;
and this, again, was due to an intelli-
gent immigration policy.
But, as the Telegram believes that
Canada lives, moves, and has its being
through the agency of tariffs, it cannot
consistently deny the good results of
the Fielding tariff of 1897. If a tariff•
is to be tested by the prosperty and
growth of the country, then the N. P.,
the tariff preceding that of Mr. Field-
ing's, was a. lamentable failure. We
believe that other causes than tariffs
operated. But that belief cannot be
shared by so blind and bigoted a wor-
shipper of tariffs as the Telegram.
A record was established in Los
Angeles last week for the quick sale of
lemons and oranges. Seventy-five car-
loads of fruit, cotaining 6,400,000 or-
anges and 800,000 lemons were, accord-
ing to The Springfield Republican, auc-
tioned off for a total of $70,000 at the
rate of one Car -load a minute. The
growers got spot cash. The oranges
brought an average of $1.85 a box.
Had Palpitation at the llearf
Weakness and Choking Spells,
When the heart begins to beat irregu•
larly, palpitate and throb, beats fast for
a time, then so slow as to seem almost to
stop, it causes great anxiety and alarm.
When the heart does this many people are
kept in a state of morbid fear of death,
sad become weak, worn and miserable.
To all such sufferers I41itburn's Heart
and Nerve Pills will give prompt and
permanent relief.

SINGLE GRAIN RATIONS.
The horse fair, on Thursday of last
week, was quite successful. There
were large numbers of horses brought
in and six or seven buyers were pres-
ent. The prices ranged froth $90 to
about $120, the latter being about the
highest price offered,
The Society of Christian Endeavor of
the Presbyterian Church are preparing
to give an "At Home", about the
middle of April.
Two car loads of horses were shipped
from the 0. P. R. station here on Tues-
day last for Manitoba. Among those
who shipped them were: Messrs. J. J.
Anderson, John and James Casemore
and John A. McEwen.
A load of the members of Anchor of
Hope lodge, I. 0. G. T., drove over to
Bluevale on Friday evening last, to as-
sist Mr. Blackwell, county organizer,
in organizing a lodge of that order, in
that place.
The anniversary services in connec-
tion with the Wingham Methodist
church Sabbath school will be held on
Sunday and Monday, April 3rd and 4th.
That the value of feeds for cattle can
not be determined absolutely by the
amounts of digestible food which they
coatain, and that certain physiological
effects of different feeds, which hither-
to were considered of practically no
importance, have a vital effect upon
the health of cattle, has been proved
by the college of agriculture of the
University of Wisconsin, in a series of
experiments covering four years.
Rations of wheat, corn and oats, con-
taining exactly the same amounts and
kinds of food constituents, or digestible
nutrients, were fedyoung heifers. Oats
was used for one lot, wheat for anoth-
er, corn for another, none of the ani-
mals receiving more than one of these
grains. The animals so fed, when they
reached maturity and underwent the
strain of reproduction, showed plainly
the effects of being fed on one grain
only.
Those fed on wheat produced weak,
undersized calves, either dead at birth
or dying shortly after; and the cows
themselves were in a low state of
health.
Those fed on corn only produced
large, vigorous calves, and were in
good condition throughout the experi-
ment. Those fed on oats were better
than those fed on wheat, but not so
good as those fed on eotn.
Those fed on a mixture of oats, corn
and wheat, were in nearly as poor a
condition as those fed on wheat, a re-
sult contrary to the popular belief that
a varied ration produces the best re -
These experiments prove conclusive-
ly that due consideration must be given
to the physiological action of individual
feeds themselves, and not merely to
the balanciag of rations from the point
of view of their digestible food constit-
uents.—Wiseonsin Experiment Station.

SNEEZING AS AN OMEN.
The only attention we pay to a sneeze
at the present day is to endeavor to
get rid of the chill which causes it; but
a sneeze in the days of old Greece was
a matter of great concern and import.
There was then a god of sneezing,
and great undertakings would even be
abandoned if a man sneezed at an in-
appropriate moment, the act being
looked upon as the oracle of the god.
A sneeze between midnight and noon
was looked upon as a fortunate sign,
but between noon and midnight it
betokened great misfortune. To sneeze
to your right was lucky; to the left un-
lucky. Two or four sneezes were
lucky, one or three very unlucky and
any undertaking in hand should if pos-
sible be abandoned; more than four
sneezes did not count.
There is a saying in many parts of
England to -day, "Once a wish, twice
a kiss, three times a letter, four times
something better." If people sneezed
together it was a good sign, particu-
larly if they happened to be discussing
business.
Mr. KeenIeyside's comments are en-
tirely undeserved. Mr. Rowell, as
leader of the Liberal party, had no
authority and no right, After accepting
the position, and before he had met his
supporters, to announce the policy of
his party in temperance matters be-
yond what was already on record. He
has promised, howefer, that the policy
of the party under his leadership, will
be declared during the present session
of the Legislative Assembly, end when
tkis has been done it will be time
enough for the champions of temper
ante reform to make item the subject
of personal attackdust at present
auch rtrictures as Mr. Keenleyside ine
dutaes in are both uncalled for and un-
generous.—Brantford Exp i;itor.

Not Thinking of Himself.
The conjurer in the village school-
room had invited any gentleman from
the audience to step up on the plat-
form, and a rustic in a velveteen coat
responded.
"Now, sir," said the professor, "I
suppose you consider it a matter of im-
possibility for me to make that rabbit
in the box on the table pass into your
coat-tail pocket."
"I dunno about impossible," came
the reply, "but I 'wouldn't do it if I
was you, sir."
"Oh, you'd be in no danger, I assure
you," smiled the sleight of hand man
airily.
"I worn't thinkin' about myself,''
the rustic answered, "I was studyin'
the rabbit. I've got a couple of ferrets
in that there pocket."

Bad Name For the Boss.
Dodgin was the new manager of a
biscuit concern. There was a workman
at the concern who liked to sneak off to
a shed about 3 o'clock in the after-
noon and smoke a pipe and look over
the afternoon paper for half an hour or
so. Well, one day as the workman sat
reading and smoking in the shed Dodgin
appeared,
"Who are yeu?" Dodgen asked, st-
ernly frowning at the idle workman.
The workman frowned back.
"Huh, who are you?" said he.
"I'm Dodgin, the new manager,"
was the reply.
At this the workman smiled.
"So am I," he said, heartily, "Come
in and have a smoke."

The Story of St. Patrick.
Time has woven many a curious trad-
ition about the patron saint of Ireland.
Claimed as a native of Cornwall, Pem.
brokeshire, Kilmarnock and even of
Ireland itself, it is now almost assured
that he was born in France about 387.
At the age of sixteen he was carried
off to Ireland by a band of marauding
Irishmen and for six years tended sheep
on the green isle as the slave of a man
called Milcho. Then he fled from his
master and arrived home safely. Of
the next twenty-three years of his life
little is known definitely, but in 432 he
was sent by the pope to evangelize the
Irish. He landed near Wicklow and
then began that life of devoted service
and endeavor which resulted in the
cnnversion of practically all the people
of the island. His death occurred on
March 17th, 465, the day which is now
celebrated the world round, not only by
Irishmen but by all who love the gen-
iality and kindliness which characteris-
ed St. Patrick.

xt of the Lesson, a Comprehensive
uarterly Review -- Golden Text%
Aatt. iv, 't6—Commentary Prepared
ty Rev. 0. M. Stearns. "
neon I.—The birth of John the(
aptist foretold (Luke 1, 15-23). Golden
Ti Heb. si, 6, "Without faith it sal
mpossible to please Him." It has been
my said that delay in answering
gayer is not denial. The time had not
pme until now to answer this prays,.
As for God, His way is perfect" (Pa.
viii, 30). Note the affliction of Zack.
gins because he did not believe. Let
s live in the presence of God, like Ga.
rlel, and go forth from Him.
LESSON' II.—Tbe birth of John the'
aptist (Luke I, 57-80). Golden Text,
uke i, 68, "Blessed be the Lord God
f Israel, for He hath visited and re-.
eemed His people." ,john the Baptist
as to be filled with the Holy Spirit
fl • his birth; Elisabeth was filled
when Mary came to see ber and spoke
u her; Zacharias was tilled after be'
rad written that the child's namo
houid be John (verses 15, 41, 67). The
pirit always honors God and Christ.
Li:ssox III.—The birth of Jesus (Luke
120). Golden Text, Luke if, 11,1
For unto you is born ,this day in the
sty of David n Saviour, which is,
Christ the Lord." A world moved by
royal decree brought Mary to Beth -
hem that Scripture might be fulfilled.;
Earth cares not -1 mean earth's great,
nes—but all beaven cares and a few
owly ones on the earth. The sIlep-;
herds believed and acted accordingly,
and found as told them.
LESSON IV.—The presentation in the
emple (Luke ii, 22-39). Golden Text,
Luke 11, 30, 31, R. V., "For mine eyes.
I • seen Thy salvation, which Thou
I prepared before the face of all;
I The son of a poor woman, SOS
poor that she could bring only the of-'
Tering appointed for the poorest, ands
Set recognized by Spirit filled Simeon
as the salvation of Jehovah, a light for
I • nations and the glory of Israel.
LESSON V.—The wise men led by the
star (Matt. it, 1-12). Golden Text, Isa.1
ly, 22, "Look unto Me and be ye,
saved alt the ends of the earth, for 1.
am God, and there is none else." They,)
came to Jerusalem to find and to woe
ship the King of the Jews, and, hav-1
ing found Him, they opened their treas
ores to Him even though He was only,
a babe in Mary's arms. 'So all cations
will come when He shall be Ring (Ser.'
i11, 17).
LESSON VL—Tbe boy Jesus In the?
temple (Luke 11, 40-52). Golden Text,
Luke 11, 49, R. V.: "How is it that yep
sought Me? Knew ye not that L
must be in My Father's house?" W
see Christ, our pnssover, at His first
pnssover, and yet it was instituted by,
Him 1,400 years before and is yet to'
have its complete fulfillment in conei
vection with Israel at His second come'
ing. We must not suppose, as Marx,
did, but know with certainty. .
LESSON VTI.—The ministry of John
the Baptist (Luke iii, 7-20). Golden'
Text, Matt. iii, 2, "Repent ye, for the
kingdom of heaven is at band." Joten
was the herald of the Messiah foretold'
by Isaiah and Malachi, a man great'in'
the sight of the Lord, no greater ever,
born of woman by ordinary generation.;
yet, altbougb so faithful, how short bis
Ministry, how strange his end! Let us,
like him, point all to Jesus. .i
LESSON' VIII. — The baptism and
temptation of Jesus -(Mark t, 9.11{ .
Matt. iv, 1-11). Golden Text, Heb. 11,
18, "For in that He Himself bath aut.
fered being tempted He Is able to suc-
cor them that are tempted." Note the
submission of Jesus for our sakes, th
opened heaven, the Father's voice, th
Spirit as a dove. Then see Him cone
quering the devil by the sword of the'
Spirit, leaving us an example.
LESSON IX.—The call of the first dis-
ciples (Mark 1, 14-28). Golden Text,
Itfatt. ix, 37, 38, "The harvest trillp i ��l,
plenteous, but the laborers are few ,
Pray ye therefore." * • * Remember
the six who were gathered unto Him in;
John 1, 35-51. This is another call tate
four of the six and an instance of Hit
power over e'gll spirits. He is eve$1
calling us nearer to Him for service
and assuring us of His all power o
our behalf.
LESSON X.—Jesus the healer Mark 1,
29-45). Golden Text, Matt. vitt, 17.
"Himself took our infirmities and bare
our sicknesses." The healing of fever
and leprosy with a touch or a word
and all manner of disease just as east
ly gives us an idea of the kingdom
where the inhabitant shall not say, I
am sick. This kingdom was at hand
when Jesus Christ was here, but has
been postponed till His return,.
LESSON XT.—The paralytic forgiven
and healed (Mark 11, 1-12). Golden
Text, Ps, ciif, 2, 3, "Bless the Lord, 0
my soul, and forget not all Elis bene-
fits who forgiveth, • * • who heaps
eth." • * * The faith of the four
friends amply rewarded, the faultfind-
ing Pharisees rebuked and the sick
man healed in body and soul. See the
mein thing is to come to Jesus; it does
not matter t bow—through the roof Or
any other way,
LESSON XIL--Feasting and fasting
(Mark 11, 13.22), Golden Text, Merk li,
17, I
Came

t t`n the ri hteous
g ,
but sinners." Let it stand mit in large
letters that "this man recelveth sin-
ners." Publicans and harlots are wel•
come if penitent, whlle,selt righteous
people cannot be received. There must
bo n new birth before there can be
new life; no patching up the old with
