This, as we say, if a peculiarly frank acknowledgement. It is an admission that protection is for the benefit of manufacturers; that protection is in the nature of a "bounty", or gift, and that protection is of no benefit to those who furnish the chief products of the West, that is, farm products. The statement to be complete should go a little further. There should be an H. 8. ELLIOTT. PUBLISHER AND PROPIETO!. admission of the fact that the farmer in the East is in the same position as the farmer of the West. The chief products of farmers both East and LARGE 'West derive no benefit from protection. On the other hand farmers both East and West are unjustly taxed to provide the bounties out of which those who do enjoy the benefits of protection are amassing profits to which they have no moral right. -Sun. THURSDAY NOVEMBER 14. 1912. NOT SATISFIED WITH A MAJORITY. [Stratford Beacon.] The fact that the Liberals have not nominated a candidate for the Musko- ka bye -election on account of the short time elapsing before it takes place is made the occasion,by the Mail and Em- pire, of tatnting the Liberals with cowardice, and makes light of the divisions in the Conservative party which will result in two Conservatives running. The election was planned to be held in the shortest time possible, evidently with view of placing the Lib- erals at a disadvantage, and they have done wisely in not putting a candidate in the field. The present Government of Ontario is not satisfied with a large majority, too large for good govern- ment, but seeks to retain and even enlarge it at every possible opportunity. Sometimes it seems it would be better just to let them have it all their own way for a time. They would soon dis- agree among themselves, but on reflec- tion it is remembered that the small band of the Opposition has done valu- able work in the Legislature in the past, and they will, under the leadership of Mr. Rowell, accomplish a great deal more before a general election takes place, which work will put them in a fair position to replace the present greedy, grasping Government, who resorted to trickery in the last election and took advantage, without any good reason therefor, of the unpreparedness of the Liberals. The latter will not be in this way again. Coming to Ontario. Nearly 800 British immigrants arriv- ed in Toronto on Thanksgiving Day, and of these more than half were for Toronto, the others being distributed throughout the province. This brings the total up to 3,416 for the month of October, as compared with 36 in Octo- ber of last year. Mr. Birmingham, the Ontario agent at Toronto, says that al- though up to this year there was ab- solutely no immigration to this pro- vince during the winter months, a stream of immigration will pour into Ontario all through this winter, and it is expected that it will be as heavy as the busiest season has been in pre- vious years. A remarkable feature of the immigration now coming in, and one which shows the confidence with which the intending immigrant regards Canada, is that the menare bringing their entire families with them. A number of large families came in on Thanksgiving Day. Among them was that of J. W. Penrose, who came with his wife and nine children. This fam- ily is locating in Toronto. Another large family was that of William Eden and his wife, with eleven children. ranging in ages from eleven months to twenty-seven years. Practically all the immigation at present corning to Ont- ario is from England itself, fully ninety per cent. of those arriving in this prov- ince being English. Very few Scotch or Irish are now coming over. A Frank Acknowledgment. A peculiarly frank acknowledgement appears in the latest issue of the Can- adian Textile Journal, one of the organs representing the Protectionist interest. It is acknowledged by the journal in question that manufacturing interests "are the main recipients of tariff boun- ty"; that the West, "which helps to pay the piper, produces chiefly goods which can receive no benefit from pro- tective duties," and that the "policy of protection for manufacturers would appear to be in favor of the Fest at COLD NOT LET ANYONE TALK T$ NEN SHE WAS SO NERVOUS.

Eczema on the Head. Mr. Peterson, South Bay, Ont., writes: "For years I suffered a sort of eczema on the head. I tried four different doctors, giving each a fair trial, but the disease grew worse and spread to my arm. I got Dr. Chase's Ointment, and it has entirely cured me I give you my name because I want other sufferers to know about this splendid Ointment." THE APPETITE, Oh, this fact will bear repeating that unless you're fond of eating, everything will seem discordant in this world that we infest; if your appetite is slender life will have no joy or splendor, and you'll think that this republic is ske- dadling galley west. Brooding prophets, gloomy Daniels, say we're going to the spaniels, government is all corrupted and we're headed for the dump; but if they were only able to get busy at the table, things would seem far more attractive, and their gloom would take a slump. Nearly all man's earthly troubles would be evanescent bubbles, could all people eat with gusto, morns and eves and sunny noons; could they shovel in their craters beef and beans and boiled potaters, succotash and ham and spinach, macaroni, pies and prunes. They could not be drawn with horses to the courts to get divorces if their ap- petites were working in the good old- fashioned way; they would find this life less hollow if they bad desire to swallow buckwheat cakes and eggs and doughnuts, scrambled rice and shredded hay. Life should be and is a blessing, and the wails and sighs distressing come from folks .with balky stomachs, though they oft misplace the blame. Learn to eat with frenzied ardor, take a fall out of the larder, and you'll soon be quite enamored with this cheerful human game. -Walt Mason.

YOUR BEST SHOPPING GUIDE. Suppose there were no advertisements -what a worrying task shopping would bel Think how you would miss the helpful information that now. guides you to select the best goods, and to know the shops where they can be best obtained. How difficult to make up your shopping list without first knowing something about the goods you need, or the store that sells them! Your shop- ping would be all experiment. You would pay out a lot of money during the slow process of learning by experience how to avoid disappointment and dis- satisfaction. Thanks to the high stan- dard of presentday Advertising, no person needs to shop at random. The advertising columns of a newspaper give you just the information you require to make your best selections of goods or store. Leisurely, in the comfort of your home, you can plan and decide up- on the purchases in view. From soap to gas ranges -from shoes to automo- biles • - one gets from newspapers the information that is essential to safe and advantageous buying. Newspaper ad- vertisements are the finger -posts on the road to right buying. They are quick and safe guides to the places and goods most worthy of your patronage. Is your husband cross?

A WINNING FIGHT Telling of the progress made in cons• bating the terrible 20th century plague- flonsumption. Notwithstanding the enormous increase in population in Canada in the past few years, it is more than gratifying to be tble to record that the fight which the National Sanitarium Association are et- :ing up against the "white plague"- zonsumptaon-is proving a winning one. Prior to 1896 deaths from Consumption were on the increase every year. In 1910, despite the greater number of citizens, the figures in Ontario alone showed a decrease A 1118 over those of ten years ago. Isn't this splendid testimony to the noble work going on?

When cold baths are preferred, the morning is the only time to take them, and the temperature of the water should bear a relation to the time of year and to the temperature of the weather, as well as to the strength of the person using it. In any case the body should be rubbed vigorously with a rough towel after a cold bath until a healtny glow is pro- duced. There are many kinds of baths and varieties of bathing, but they may conveniently be arranged in three class- es: First, the air and vapor baths; sec- ond, warm and hot baths; third, cold and shower baths. Of these the first deserves the great- est consideration as a means of person- al cleanliness. The second and third are simply aids to soap and water. Water by itself, warm or cold, is im- perfectly cleansing. The vapor bath combines the full effects of transpiration and complete opening of the pores with ample lavation afterwards.

SUNDAY SCHOOLI Lesson VIS. -Fourth Quarter, For Nov. 17, 1912. THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES. Text of the Lesson, Mark viii, 27, to ix, 1 -Memory Verses, 36, 37 -Golden Text, Matt. xvi, 16 -Commentary Pre- pared by Rev, D. M. Stearns. This lesson is recorded also in Matt. 171 and Luke ix, and we will consider it with the harmony of the gospels before us. lllimprtss in ills harmony says that this Is the first particular prediction couceruing the rejection, the death and the resurrection of the Christ and was probably apart from the multitude and Is the first key op- posed to the leaven of the Pharisees. Mlattbew and Mark say that He had come into the coasts or towns of Caesa- rea Philippi, and Luke adds that He was alone praying, His disciples being with Him. We Shall see in the next lesson that He was praying also at the time of His transfiguration (Luke Ix, 18, 29). Luke records other Instances of His praying in chapters 111, 21; vt, 12; xt, 1i xxii, 41; xxill, 34. He ever talked with IIis Father in heaven with the same realization of His presence is that of the people about Him. People talked about Him and had their opinions as they have today. The Pharisees who believed in a resurrec- tion thought that He might be John the Baptist or Elijah or Jeremiah or one of the prophets, at which, no doubt, the Sadducees scoffed, for they did not believe In resurrection or spirit, but the Pharisees confessed both (Acts xxitl, 8). His next question Is the one that should lay hold of our hearts, "Whom say ye that I am?" or as He put It to the Pharisees at another time, "What think ye of Christ?" (Matt. fxli, 42.) It should not so much concern me what others say, but what does my heart say, what is He to me person- ally? Simon Peter, generally the spokesman, answered, "Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God" (verse 29; Matt. xvt, 16). See bite similar testimony in John vi, 60, and that of Martha 'tn John xi, 27. Can 1 look upon Him with His eyes as a dame of fire searching me through and through and say, 0 Lord, thou art to me the risen living Christ, my per- sonal Saviour. If so, then blessed am I, for our Father in heaven has taught me by His spirit (Matt. xvt, 17). The words translated Peter and rock In Matt. xvi, 18, are not quite the same, the first signifying a piece of rock easily moved and the other a solid rock immovable. The rock foundation is the great truth that Jesus Is God, and other foundation can no man lay (I Cor. Ili. 11; Acts iv, 12). Tbq church built on this and on His great atonement as God can never be moved. The company of all true be- lievers in Him constitutes this church, end all else must come to naught Peter MIS given the keys of the king- dom, not the church, and the church is not the kingdom, but the heavenly cen- ter of It. From that time and re- peatedly He began to telt them that at the hands of the elders, chief priests and scribes Ile must suffer many things, be rejected and killed and aft- er three days rise again (verses 31; Ix, 31: x, 33, 34); but, ,although to no seemingly so plain, His disciples did not receive these sayings, not even Peter and John. and it is written con- cerning them that up to the time of His actual resurrection from the dead they knew not the Scripture that He must rise again from the dead (John sx, 9). They had not received the message of the prophets that the Mea.
