A deputation consisting of Robert
Patterson, mayor, William Hunter,
reeve, and P. A, Malcolmson, town
solicitor, appointed by the Kincardine
town council, met Mr. J. W. Moyse,
with representatives from the other
municipalities, interested in the West
Shore Railsoad, at Goderich.
The municipalities have loaned $400,-
000 to the West Shore Electric Railway
Company, and no more work is being
done be it to finish the road.
Mr. Moyse now asks the municipali-
ties to loan the company $100,000 so
that it will be enabled to complete the
road, and pay the indebtedness to the
munleipalities of Goderich, Ashfield,
Huron and Kincardine.
This further loan, the representa-
tives decidedly objected to, claiming
that all the money loaned had been
used up, and is practically a dead loss
to the municipalities. Some of the
members of the deputation spoke very
plainly regarding Mr. Moyse's action,
the promises he had made, which had
not been fulfilled, and asked how they
could reasonably be expected to aug-
ment the loan at his request, and do
their duty to the municipalities repre-
sented.
Mr. Moyse justified the expenditure
of the $400,040. It was understood,
he claimed, that on putting the stock
on the market, the cash realized from
tont dell' was only $386,000. He had
spent $17(',000 of his own money, and
had not received anything for his own
labor. The trust company can show by
Its books, he said, that there has been
paid out by the West Shore Railway
Company the sum of $634,000.
He assured the representatives that
the delay in building of the road is
dependent on the development of elec-
tric power, and that as soon as this
matter is settled the road will be push-
ed ahead.
The members of the deputation re-
fused any further loan, but assented to
use their influence, through their res-
pective municipalities, to induce the
Government through Mr. Beck to place
hydro electric power at their disposal,
for which they will be willing to pay a
reasonable amount per horsepower per
year, until the dams ,c�yr 'the Maitland
are built, and tl3e electric machinery in
tgie:at28n.
It is said that power can he supplied
from the Maitland water power at $12
per horsepower.
Kincardine's cost at present is $58
per horsepower for steam power.
The deputation decided to engage an
independent first-class engineer to go
over the road and report to the munici-
palities the probable cost of the work
done, and what it will cost to complete
the road to Kincardine.
The Albertan resents such state -I
ments as the above as tending to place
Canadian loyalty on a sordid basis. It
scouts the idea that there is anything
savoring of independence or political
fanaticism in this country which is cal-
culated to weaken British connection in
the least, and then proceeds to point
out that the British capitalist puts out
his money not for sentimental reasons
but for reasons solely of a pecuniary
nature; in other words, his money is
available to anyone who can afford the
necessary security and give a good
rate of interest. Evidence of this it
finds in the investment of 700,0110,0e0
pounds sterling of British money in the
United States. And it might have add-
ed that for similar reasons many of the
Canadian banks and notably the one of
which Sir Edmund Walker is the head,
also invest a good deal of their funds
across the line. No one knows better
than Sir Edmund that there is mighty
little of sentiment in the money -lending
business.

The Calgary Albertan takes Sir Ed-
mund Walker to task for some opinions
which that gentleman gave expression
to in a recent interview. In this inter-
view, after declaring that 83 per cent.
of Canada's capital comes from Great
Britain, he made the following state-
ment:
"There is another phase to this loan
from England. If she should stop giv-
ing us credit -it is hardly likely that
she ever will, but if she should -what
other country in the world have the
confidence in us to extend us such
credit? Any independence or political

The Maeleans have just had a re-
union at Duart Castle in the island of
Mull to celebrate the restoration of the
castle to the chief of the clan. For
something like three hundred years the
property had been in the bands of
strangers, and MeLeans assembled
from all parts of the world to witness
the recovery, by the clan of its ancient
stronghold. Mr. W. F. McLean, M.
P. of Toronto and others of the name
were present.
As one looks at the photograph show-
ing the visitors walking up from the
landing and sees them gathered in the
court of the old stone building, he gets
some idea of the change that three
centuries has made in the fortunes, not
only of the McLeans, but of people
everywhere. There are thousands of
McLeans all over the world who live in
better comfort than did the inhabitants
of Duart Castle in the most flourishing
day it ever knew. And those who
dwelt in the castle had about all the
comforts and refinements to be found
on the whole countryside. It is one
thing to read one of Scott's romances
but it is another to study the notes at
the back of the volume for the purpose
of getting a glimpse of the conditions
at this time. There may have been
rude plenty in the castle, but it was
pretty poor faring in the hut of the
fisherman or cow herd. Duart Castle,
when formerly occupied by a McLean
was, like other castles of the period,
more secure than cheerful. It was a
cold, draughty, unlighted stone struct-
ure, within the walls of which the clans
could stand siege if driven to it. It
was more a fortress and a town than a
home. The chief's rule was absolute
and even in Dr. Johnston's day he was
much impressed on learning from one
of the clan that at a word from his
chief he would kill a man or submit to
be killed and it was not for him to have
opinions one way or the other.
To -day there are thousands of Mc -
Leans where there was one. They own
thousands of homes scattered about
the world, in which there is better
comfort, peace and plenty than Duart
Castle ever knew. A mechanic of that
name lives better in Toronto than the
greatest chief of Mull. What we
mean by this is that he, and his family
live in greater comfort, sleep in better
beds, dress in softer clothes, eat more
tasty food and a vastly greater variety
of it, get better doctoring when ill,
read more of the world's doings and
are more secure in life and property.
A new world has come into being and
the poorest of peasants by crossing the
seas have been able to erect castles of
their own -not stone fortresses, but
cottages in gardens, frame or brick
houses on farms or in towns where
they can enjoy freedom and be the
equals of any,
The point worth noting in all this is
that all the great inventions that make
for the comfort and progress of the
human race have crowded fast each on
the heels of the other when, in a new
world, the emancipated common people
ofuro e found p , scope to apply their
hitherto undeveloped natural talent to
all kinds of problems unhindered by
authority. I

YOUNG AT MINETY.
[London Daily Mail.]
This is pre-eminently the age of
"young old men," it has been said by
a student of modern England, and it is
certainly wonderful as we look round
to note how much of the most energetic
work in this country is being accomp-
lished by those who have already ex-
ceeded the Biblical span. Lord Strath
cons, whose activity in business con-
tinnes unabated and whose appetite for
hard mental exertion is as insatiable as
of old, kept his 92nd birthday recently.
Lord Wemyss, though his 92nd birth-
day fell last Sunday, still follows mod-
ern polities with all the zest of youth,
and is a redoubtable antagonist with his
pen. Dr. Atkinson, the master of
Clare College, Cambridge, was 93 re-
cently, and is fast approaching the re-
cord of Dr. Routh, the famous presi-
dent of Magdalen College, Oxford, who
lived into his 100th year. And today,
Earl Nelson, the nebstor of the House
of Lords, keeps his 89th birthday.
If there is any slackness in this coun-
try, it is to be found in the rising gen-
eration, not in our old men. Earl Rob-
erts, though his 80th birthday will fall
next month, put our youth to shame by
the splendid vigor and persistence of his
services to the cause of national de-
fence. Lord Halsbury, for all his 86
years, is one of the strongest forces in
bis party; in his green old age his ardor
for combat has rather deepened
than decreased. Our greatest figure in
literature is Mr. Thomas Hardy, who
at T2 can yet produce poetry that will
live. The contrast with the eighteenth
century is extraordinary. Then, in the
days of Pitt and Fox, men were count-
ed old at 40, and sank to valetudinarian-
ism at that age. Now they retain their
health and strength and are young at
90. This does not suggest any loss of
vigor in the race.
A Lambnrnaae's Opinion.
"I was troubled with palpitation of
the heart and sleeplessness, writes.
Mr. Wm. Pritchard, Lumber Inspector,
Lumsden Mills, Ont., "and used Dr.
Chase's Nerve Food with very great
benefit, as my whole system was stren-
gthened and built up." Dr. Chase's
Nerve Food forms new, rich blood and
restores the feeble, wasted nerve cells.
NO LAUGHING MATTER.
[Ottawa Free Press.]
It is hard to believe that Canadian
manufacturers welcomed with laughter
the invitation of the Grain Growers to
join with them (the Grain Growers) in
a demand that the British preference
be increased to 50 per cent. The man-
ufacurers of Canada had better sense
than that. These same manufacturers
are hard-headed business men, who look
to the future, and who are not given to
discounting the possibilities of that
same future.
They surely must have heard the
Minister of Finance, Hon. Mr. White,
at the banquet Friday night, when he
stated that the "consumer" is entitled
to all the benefit of competition.
These same manufacturers know in
their own hearts tha were the British
preference increased the consumer
would benefit, and at the same time the
liveliest competition

LOVE OF COUNTY.
[Sir Walter Scott.]
Breathes there a man with soul so dead,
Who never to himself hath said,
This is my own, my native land!
Whose heart hath ne'er within him
burn'd.
As home his footsteps he hath turn'd
From wandering on a foreign strand?
If such there breathe, go mark well;
For him no mintrel raptures swell;
High though his titles, proud his name,
Boundless his wealth, as wish can claim;
Despite those titles, power and pelf,
The wretch, concentred all in self,
Livingshall forfeit fair renown,
And, oubly dying, shall go don
To the vile dust from whence he sprung;
Unwept, unhonored and unsung,
0 Caledonia! stern and wild,
Meet nurse for a poetic child!
Land of brown heath and shaggy wood,
Land of the mountain and the flood,
Land of my sires! What mortal hand
Can e'er untie the filial band
That knits me to thy rugged strand!
Still as I view each well-known scene,
Think what is now and what hath been,
Seems as to me, of all bereft,
Sole friends thy woods and stream were
left;
And thus I love them better still,
Even in extremity of ill.
By Yarrow's stream still let me stray,
Though none should guide my feeble
way;
Still feel the breeze down Ettriek break,
Although it chill my wither'd cheek;
Still lay my head by Treviot stone,
Though there, forgotten and alone,
The bard may draw his parting groan.

An old-time blood purifier that is as

and press out any liquid remaining in
the blossoms. A dose is one' teacupful

Dandelion roots should be gathered
in the fall -August or September. when
the roots are matured. Wash all dirt
from them, dry well and put away in

the blossoms may be gathered, steeped,
and the tea used for the same purpose.
The juice of acid fruits, lemons, limes,
oranges, gooseberries, grapefruit, cur-
rants, some varieties of cherries, ap-
ples, plums, strawberries, and perhaps
peaches has the effect of making the
blood more alkaline; the juices are
readily absorbed, and have a diuretic
effect. Nearly all fruits have a laxa-
tive effect upon the digestive organs.

with his collar. Then he lost the

By the time he got to breakfast
he was so irritated that he had no

He went to the office with a headache
and when he had some important

A Salvation Army officer was taking

was heard to say as he dropped in a
dime, "Here's ten cents for the graft-
ers." "You don't believe there's any

rejoined the woman. "How do you
know?" the man asked her. "Because
you would be in the Army yourself, if

Text of tho 'Lesson, Mark vii, 1-13.
Memory Verses, 5, 6 ---Golden Text,
Rom. xiv, 17 -Commentary Prepared
by Rev. D. M. Stearns,
Taking up the incidents between the.
last lesson and this one we note that
because they did not consider His won-
drous works, such as the feeding of
the thousands, they were amazed at
His stilling the storm and walking on
the sea. That was Israel's trouble all
through, and It is ours; we do not.
consider, or if we do It is ourselves
or our circumstances or people and not
Him who should occupy all our
thoughts (vs. 52; Heb. 111, 1; all, 3). In
chap. vi, 53-50, what a multitude of
sick folks gather unto Him, see the
streets in the villages filled with them,
all hoping that He would pass near
enough for them to touch the border
of Ills garment; how beautiful to read
that "as many as touched Him were
made whole."
Then follows the great discourse on
the bread of life, the bread which
came down from heaven, even Him-
self; and His reply to ethe question,
"What shall we do that we might work
the works of God?" In considering
Isis reply remember that believing
weans receiving (John i, 12) or commit-
ting oneself unto Him (John 11, 24).
I am continually helped by John v!,
57, "As the living Father bath sent
Me, and I live by the Father, so he
that eateth Me, even he shall live by
sMe" Also verse 63, "The words that
I speak unto you, they are spirit and
they are life." To many even among
true believers, He and His words are
still hidden manna of which they have
not yet tasted the sweetness, or hav-
ing no spiritual appetite they loathe
the heavenly food. They have life,
having Him, but not ahundane life.
There were many in His day, as
there were also in the days of the
prophets and as there are in our own
1
time, whose religion is wholly outward,
simply a matter of externals, of out-
ward forms and ceremonies -they are
referred to In verse 6 of our lesson in
a quotation from Isaiah. Let us hear
two quotations from the prophets con-
cerning them, "Tills people draw near
Me with their mouth and with their
lips do honor me, but have removed
their heart far from Me, and their
fear toward Me Is taught by the pre-
cept of men" "They come unto thee
as the people cometh, and they sit be-
fore thee as my people, and they hear
thy words, but they will not do them,
for with their mouth they shew much
love, but their heart goeth after their
covetousness" (Isa. xxix, 13; Ezek.
xxxfii, 31.). In addition to what our
Lord said about them In this lesson
He said elsewhere, "All their works
they do for to be seen of men." "Ye
make clean the outside of the cup and
of the platter, but within are full of
extortion and excess." "Ye outward-
ly appear righteous unto men, but
within are full of hypocrisy and in-
iquity" (Matt xxiif, 5, 25.28). These
are the men who, in the lesson for to-
day, find fault with Christ and His
disciples for not practicing the many
outward washings of their religion.
There are multitudes of such formal-
ists still who are very religious, but
It is all outward, and they know not
the true God, who searcheth hearts
(1 Sam. xv!, 7; I Chron. xxviii, 9; Jer.
xvfi, 10; Rev. ti, 23). In II Tim. ill,
1-5, we read that the end of this age
will be characterized by a form of god-
liness without any power, and truly it
Is already visible enough and tending
to a greater manifestation of the same.
Inasmuch as It was foretold that it
would be so, we are not surprised at
it, and rejoice that He cannot fall nor
be discouraged (Isa. x111, 4), but the
question may well search us, Am I
real in my lite, living before God
rather than Hien and studying to show
myself approved unto God (II Tim. 11, .
15; II Cor. v, 9). Our Lord desires a
holy people, a people meet for His
use (I Pet,1, 15, 16; II TIm. il, 21), but
the cleansing must be Inward, by Els
'spirit and Ells word applying the
blood (Ps. 11, 10; Rom. xii, 2; John xvii,
17; Eph. v. 25, 26). This matter of de-
filement by unwashed hands is briefly
and decidedly disposed of by our Lord
in these words, "To eat with unwashen
hands deflleth not a man" (Matt. xv,
20). In Matt. xv, 11, and verse 15 of
our lesson we learn that what cometh
out of the mouth, not that which goeth
into the mouth, deflleth a parson, for
out of the abundance of the heart the
mouth speaketh, and out of {he evil
heart proceedeth all evil deeds and
Words (vss. 20-23; Matt. x11. 34).
No mere outward religion is of any
eternal value, but may be of some
benefit as far as this present world
is concerned. The great ery of today

ttanizing of nations, making An end of
war, etc., 10 all from the proud, fool -
